Why stop at bringing Tupac back to life via hologram when you can have an all-star (and all-undead) Coachella 2013 lineup?

MJ, Biggie, ODB, James Brown, Mozart and ... Rodney Dangerfield?! Well, at least he's finally getting some respect, even if it's just via a clever photoshop job.

Massoud Hossaini has won the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News Photography for his photo of Tarana Akbari, 12, screaming in fear moments after a suicide bomber detonated a bomb in a crowd at the Abul Fazel Shrine in Kabul on December 6. The photograph made the front pages of the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and the Washington Post the next day.

"I was taking pictures and I did want to help," Hossaini said. "But I just saw that the bodies were completely destroyed and I said, 'O.K. I can't do anything for them, so I have to wait for whoever comes.'"

Out of 17 women and children from Tarana's family who went to a riverside shrine to mark the Shiite holy day of Ashura, seven died, including 7-year-old brother, Shoaib. "When I could stand up, I saw that everybody was around me on the ground, really bloody. I was really, really scared," Tarana said.

More than 70 people died in all, and at least nine other members of Tarana's family were wounded. The attack was the deadliest strike on the capital in three years.

Without fail, Hillary Clinton has been one of the better Secretaries of the State in recent presidencies as she's able to roll with the punches of being a meme and be articulate enough to put foreign policy makers in their place. With all that in mind, it's assuring to know that she wants to dance to a Nicki Minaj jam like most Americans.

An Alpine pygmy mixed goat, Cocoa, loves to hang out in Manhattan as evidenced by the fact that she's chillin' on the subway. Jokes aside, it would make a cool episode of MTV's True Life.

This corgi either does not like to be lifted or is surveying its kingdom. In either case, it remains unimpressed.

Late yesterday, gossip sites almost broke when this picture of Queen of the Universe Angelina Jolie surfaced, in which she's rocking some serious jewelry. Nothing was confirmed until late Friday night, when Brad Pitt's rep gave the ol' wink and the gun in the form of a "yes, they are" press statement.
