Aside from the sheer terror and unfathomable pain of having to wake up early enough to catch the school bus, I have relatively fond memories of high school and grade school. For the most part, the kids in the latest video from Tomorrow’s World look like they will have fond memories, too. Tomorrow’s World is the side project of Jean Benoit Dunckel and Lou Hayter, better known as members of legendary electronic group Air and New Young Pony Club, respectively. Their most recent video for 'Life on Earth' is a glimpse at a day in the life of school children from the boredom of math class up until the insane running of the bulls that is the final bell.

Katy Perry and Calvin Harris have launched a bitter war of words on Twitter after the Scottish DJ canceled his supporting slot on the singer's U.K. tour at the last minute.
The "Girls" hitmaker was due to open Perry's shows across Ireland and Britain, but the "I Kissed a Girl" singer was forced to announce that Harris had dropped out of the tour just hours before taking the stage in Dublin, Ireland on Monday night, March 28.

Madonna and Lady Gaga had their very own episodes, but Katy Perry could very well be the unofficial queen of "Glee." Her music has found its way to the immensely popular series three times this season, twice this week alone, for some pretty big moments.
Her hit "Teenage Dream" got a second life as newcomer Darren Criss turned it into the show's fastest-selling single yet last fall. Then came this Sunday's post-Super Bowl episode, in which her ubiquitous summer song "California Gurls" set the scene for the Cheerios' over-the-top opening number.
Now, her chart-topping latest single, "Firework," has gotten the royal treatment from Ryan Murphy, when Lea Michele took a crack at the self-esteem anthem in Tuesday night's Valentine's Day episode, titled "Silly Love Songs." When...
