"Chubby elvis looking dude was tapping on my car window, I rolled down the window and he said 'Are you on parole or probation?'" said the performer and preacher (real name: Stanley Kirk Burrell). "While I was handing him my ID he reached in my car and tried to pull me out the car but forgot he was on a steady donut diet," he continued.

According to TMZ, the Dublin Police Department has yet to release a statement about the arrest. It was comical to me until he pulled out his guns, blew his whistle and yelled for help (MallCop) !!! But make no mistake he's dangerous ..only thing more dangerous than a scared man with a gun, is a scared man with an agenda, a gun and a badge. I was citied for obstruction."

Added Hammer, who is also a tech entrepreneur: "You have to know me to understand I was laughing when he was grunting and pulling on me .. I had just left the weight room ..I will now answer his question, contrary to his personal beliefs, all people of color are not on parole or probation fat boy !!!"

South Korean rapper Psy performs "Gangnam Style" with MC Hammer at the AMAs.

Dressed all in black, PSY took the stage first, sporting a version of the baggy "Hammer pants" MC Hammer made famous decades ago. Then MC Hammer himself joined in, though his outfit was all in white.

The billowy trousers didn't stop either musician from dancing up a storm, even trotting through the famed horse-riding style dance PSY tackles in the "Gangnam" video.

Hammer wasn't the only nostalgic act to take the AMA stage. Boy banders The Backstreet Boys, who celebrate their 20th anniversary next year, also made an appearance.

Singer Justin Bieber's striking shoes.

In contrast, the night's big winner, Canadian teen singer Justin Bieber, wasn't born until 1994, at which point the Backstreet Boys and MC Hammer were already well into their fame. Yet even Bieber himself sported a version of Hammer's baggy pants, along with a fashion twist of his own -- what appeared to be red slip-on shoes dotted with tiny black spikes. No one step on his foot!

Tuesday night, President Barack Obama won another four years in office, which means someone else also just got re-elected: Fadi Saleh, the genius behind BaracksDubs, will now have a second term to keep producing hilarious, quick-cut videos of the president "singing" to popular tunes.

And Saleh, a 19-year-old biochemistry major, is wasting no time; last night, he posted his first post-election mash-up of clips from Obama speeches married with MC Hammer's 1990 hit "U Can't Touch This."

In the short video, Obama may look presidential at the podium, standing in front of numerous cheering crowds, but thanks to the terrific editing and vocal tweaks, he gets down and funky, even removing his jacket at one point and uttering "Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots" randomly at the end.
