Every Monday through Friday, we break down the must-know entertainment stories from the week before. Today's shortlist:

The weekend's right around the corner, but if you need something to put some pep in your step, how about this news: J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter universe is headed back to the big screen — Warner Bros. is adapting her Potterverse textbook "Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them" into a movie. (EW)

If you've ever found yourself singing Icona Pop's "I Love It" at the top of your lungs in a dimly lit bar, "All Night" is their tune for later in the night once everyone's settled down. Watch the music video below. (Vulture)

2014's right around the corner (ahh!), and with that means another round of World Cup madness, and another killer World Cup tune. This year's "Waka Waka (Eh Eh)" is David Correy's "The World Is Ours." (Billboard)

Kanye West can't take a step without putting his foot in his mouth. His latest moment: ranting against "f*ckin' corporations" and "f*ckin' sellouts." Says the man who played a show in Kazakhstan for $1 million. (That said, he loves his man Pusha T). (Stereogum)

Nicki Minaj is being sued by an artist named Clive Tanaka over her tune "Starships." (Pitchfork)
