Badu strips down for video with The Flaming LipsR&B singer Erykah Badu doesn’t leave much to the imagination in a new video she shot recently with The Flaming Lips.

Interestingly, the most provocatively bared body parts - dripping with milk, glitter and another substance at various points throughout the video - do not actually belong to the Grammy-winning singer but her sister Nayrok, according to the magazine.

Brooke Hogan: I always wanted to get into wrestlingBrooke Hogan's new job sort of has her following in her father's footsteps, and she tells CNN that he wasn't thrilled about it at first. Brooke, daughter of legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan, now manages the female division (a.k.a., "The Knockouts") of TNA's "Impact Wrestling" on Spike TV, she told CNN at the MTV Movie Awards Sunday.
