It was an epic battle of open letters and violent tweets, but it's all over now: The Osbournes have buried the hatchet with Lady Gaga, ending one of rock's weirder public feuds.

We were mostly enamored of Lady Gaga's dual turn as both 'SNL' host and musical guest this past weekend, most of the sketches landing with far more commitment than the initial promo that preceded them, but we haven't seen it all yet. Watch Lady Gaga lead the ladies of the 'SNL' cast as "Female Sea Captains" in a deleted sketch from this past weekend!

Lady Gaga returns to the 'SNL' stage tonight as both host and musical guest! No surprise there, since Gaga's success is largely thanks to her ability to perform. She can sing, she can dance, and she really knows how to work a stage ... but can she, you know, act? We saw a little of what she can do last time around, but this week 'SNL' puts her talents to the test and gives her a show all her own.

'SNL' may have taken the past weekend off to recuperate from its monumental Kerry Washington-Eminem hour, but this Saturday will see the weekend late-night staple pulling double duty with the ever-enigmatic Lady Gaga as both host and musical guest. The first promos for Gaga's 'SNL' return have arrived, and they're every bit as weird as you'd expect.

While this weekend's all-new 'SNL' installment featuring 'Scandal' star Kerry Washington and musical guest Eminem will prove an episode to watch, its forthcoming lineup is really on fire. Not only has Lady Gaga been confirmed to both host and perform in the subsequent installment, but the week to follow will see 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire' star Josh Hutcherson take the stage!

'Machete Kills,' Robert Rodriguez's follow-up to 2010's 'Machete,' ditches the grindhouse aesthetic and homage, and instead tries to emulate a late-'80s, early-'90s action flick -- basically, Rodriguez made the kind of movie he often makes. The result is an uninspired, joyless and oft-trashy exercise in self-indulgence. Rodriguez has spent his career making films the way he wants in his own backya

Forget all about that crap rumor of Lindsay Lohan hosting the 'SNL' season 39 premiere, much more credible intel points to an even crazier female figure: Lady Gaga! Unsurprising given her showy VMA performance and upcoming album release, the queen of weird will return to the 'SNL' stage in season 39 to perform, but is there any chance the star will take up hosting duties as well?

Birds are funny creatures, mainly because they're prone to unfortunate (and hilarious) haircuts. They also have a particular knack for jamming out to music, and they're pretty good at it, too! Remember that master beatboxer dubstep bird? That was just a measly intro to birdy talent.

Being one of Lady Gaga's bazillion Twitter followers has its perks. The Mother Monster is home for the holidays, and she has been hanging with the Germanotta family and tweeting shopping advice to her followers, fully admitting that she clips coupons and looks for money-saving deals.

Queen is looking to fill the void left by the late Freddie Mercury, and Lady Gaga is being considered for it. Guitarist Brian May previously reached out to Bad Company leader Paul Rodgers, but now it looks as though the pop diva is at the top of the list.

Rock legend Alice Cooper has said that he wants to create a rock and roll TV reality show. According to NME.com, Cooper feels that contemporary rock bands lack “attitude.” “Forget The X Factor,” he said. “I’d like to see a TV show that discovers a real songwriting rock genius...

The 2011 Grammys may have been Gaga's show, but people actually won some awards, too. Biggest shocker (maybe?) was unknown songstress Esperanza Spalding making enemies with a nation of Justin Bieber fans by taking Best New Artist. And Lady Antebellum winning pretty much everything else. Here's a good chunk of the winners, and photos from many of the performances.
