When a $1 million stolen Matisse painting is recovered after 26 years missing, I'd say that's enough cause for celebration. Especially when the work in question is Henri Matisse's 1920 painting, "Le Jardin." The piece was stolen from Museum of Modern Art in Stockholm during an early morning robbery on May 11, 1987. The burglar reportedly smashed into the museum with a sledgehammer and made off with the well-known work. Some twenty years later, the painting popped up mysteriously when Charles Roberts, an Essex based art dealer, was offered the familiar artwork by a Polish collector. Roberts then searched for information on its background through Art Loss Register (ARL), a database which holds information about stolen art. Once communications began rolling, ALR director Christopher Marinello began the negotiation's for the painting's return to Swedish hands. It is unlikely that the thief will ever be caught because with so much time passed, the MOMA is just glad to have the piece back safe. Neither Charles Roberts nor the unnamed Polish collector are suspected in relation to the crime.

Blue Ivy Carter is one years old now and already living the sweet life. She takes rides on yachts in the Mediterranean, she shops at Bergdorf Goodman in NYC, wear Marc Jacob flats, goes to daddy's rapper dude parties, and even has her name copyrighted?!... doing pretty good, if you ask me. Here's a glance back on the little hopper's life so far.

According to a report released on Monday from the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute, the United States spends more money on immigration enforcement -- nearly $18 billion in the 2012 fiscal year -- than on its other law enforcement agencies combined. In contrast, the U.S. spent $14.4 billion (combined) on its other prime law enforcement agencies: the FBI, Secret Service, Drug Enforcement Administration, U.S. Marshal Service and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Looks like we're pointing the guns at the wrong people, ain't we?

On last night’s Dateline NBC, Al Roker opened up about a terribly embarrassing incident that occurred more than ten years ago while he was covering an event at the White House. Just one month after he underwent gastric bypass surgery, Roker tried to “pass gas” as he was headed to the press room, “but a little something extra came out.” “I pooped my pants. Not horribly, but I knew… and, so I was panicking, so I got to the restroom of the press room, threw out the underwear, you know, and just went commando.”

Only two months after causing a giant riot over their relationship, Taylor and Harry split in a heated argument while on vacation to the British Virgin Islands. Looks like Slu0Bag-Swift has new material for her next album. What's it gonna be this time, Tay? "I fell in love, I bought I house, gave him my heart, he kicked me out." We all knew it was coming very soon.

22 year old Harry Potter star, Emma Watson, was passing through JFK airport recently, when US Customs officials mistook her for an unaccompanied minor. What?! She's 22! She tweeted about it later.

So many little girls (and some big girls too) are gaga over baby Bieber. But one look at these pics and they might be thinking otherwise. Little Justin is kind of a creep when it comes to his shirtless selfies, just see for yourself.

YouTube cut the views on music videos from Sony, Universal, and other major labels, finding that their rankings had been inflated through the use of fake users, created by apparently paid manipulation experts. Universal — home to Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, skanky Taylor Swift — seems to have been the most guilty. Google cut a whopping 1 billion views from the label's YouTube channel. The results are channels that seem remarkably thin or, in Sony's case, completely empty.

Magazines from across the globe are willing to pay top dollar (For example, $3 Million from a British tabloid) for the exclusive first photos of Kim and Kanye's offspring, but apparently the couple isn't interested in profiting from their progeny. Honey, this picture ain't just worth a thousand words! It's $3 Million! What's wrong with getting Kimye a little boost on that college fund?

Well, it’s official. On Monday, President Obama announced his nomination of Chuck Hagel to serve as the next secretary of defense. Hagel, Obama noted, will be the first person of enlisted rank and the first Vietnam veteran to lead the Department of Defense, as well as the first secretary to be wounded in war. The president also announced John Brennan as his pick for director of the CIA, calling him “one of our nation’s most skilled and respected intelligence professionals.” On stage as well were outgoing Secretary of Defense and CIA Director, respectively, Leon Panetta and Mike Morell, who each said a few words of farewell, following the president’s speech.

The U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee has begun an examination of the contacts between the CIA and the makers of Zero Dark Thirty, which has come under intense criticism in Washington for its depiction of torture during the hunt for Osama bin Laden.

The Pentagon has a list of websites that are not permitted access on by the computers in the building. Among those banned are Towleroad and AMERICAblog, popular gay civil rights websites. The Pentagon has no problem permitting their computers to access Ann Coulter’s and Rush Limbaugh’s hate-filled Web sites. But what’s really offensive is that the Pentagon has a censorship category called “LGBT.” And if you’re deemed “LGBT” by the Pentagon, they ban you. Apparently, the LGBT filter existed before the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, but still has not been fixed. They were notified of the problem as early as last summer, 2012. It is still a problem, unfixed.

"I have a 'shit list' — people from my past who have been soulless and judgemental. Even after I got through my awkward phase, got my braces off, and figured out how to dress my body, people in the music business were like, 'You're never going to make it. I see them now and I'm like, 'Ha!' That's one of the reasons I named my record Warrior. You can be a victim and let that eat your soul, or you can say, 'You're going on my list and I'm going to prove you wrong!"
