best jaw-dropping moment nominee favorites.
What used to be called “Best WTF Moment,” Best Jaw-Dropping Moment is virtually that moment in a movie that you will never forget. This is why Ken Jeong’s naked trunk surprise from “The Hangover” was a clear winner in the category last year. This year is a little more open. I can almost guarantee you that having James Franco cut of his own arm in “127...
biggest badass star nominee favorites
One of the newest categories of the MTV Movie Awards, this marks only its second year being awarded. Last year it went to Rain for “Ninja Assassin” with Channing Tatum, Angelina Jolie, Chris Pine, and Sam Worthington rounding out the other nominees. With both Angelina Jolie and Sam Worthington as possible nominees again this year for “Salt” and “Clash of the...
best villain nominee favorites.
I LOVE BEST VILLAIN! It’s mainly because I love seeing actors get so into their characters that we forget they are actual human beings with emotions other than hate and the desire to kill. We all remember how intense the late Heath Ledger made the Joker in Christopher Nolan’s 2009 Batman thriller “The Dark Knight” for which he received the 2009 Best Villain award...
best fight nominee favorites.
The Best Fight category is one of my personal favorites because it’s always so open-ended and could really go to any of the nominees. MTV picked some good potential nominees to highlight but I’d have to say that one of my favorites would have to be Jon Hamm vs. Jeremy Renner & Ben Affleck in “The Town.” If you agree with me, you’re gonna have to use a write-in...
best kiss nominee favorites
The Best Kiss category is often one of the most exciting awards of the night since in almost all cases, the winners often recreate the kiss during their acceptance speeches.Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams had one of the most memorable recreations having running across the stage toward each other when Rachel jumps into Ryan’s arms and the two just go out it, tongue and all. But then...
the real world is here to stay.
It is now official: MTV’s The Real World has become the longest running television show of all time. Currently in it’s 25th season, the 26th season is being cast as you read this post. And MTV has picked up the reality show for another two seasons. Having crossed not only the country but the globe as well, the show has over 436 episodes and has featured 187 castmates to date. The...
it's the thought that counts.
Cutting one’s hair for charity is, in my opinion, one of the most inspiring things a person can do. Sacrificing one’s own vanity so that others can enjoy some of the over-looked advantaged of having a full head of hair, is moving. But when one of the world’s biggest supermodels cuts their hair for the same cause, it can move mountains. That’s exactly what Brooklyn Decker...
mtv movie awards voting begins.

lindsay rejects plea deal.
It’s really starting to seem like the Lohan family will do anything as long as it means they’re still in the spotlight. Less than 24-hours after her father, Michael Lohan, gets arrested for domestic violence near his apartment in West Hollywood on Tuesday night, Lindsay Lohan faced a judge in Los Angeles regarding her felony grand theft case after she was accused of stealing a $2,500...
another one bites the dust.
Lots of relationship drama today! This time though, it’s another one of young Hollywood’s most wishy-washy relationships: “Star Wars: Episode II and III’s”Hayden Christensen and Rachel Bilson of “The O.C.” The pair have been together for quite sometime but have been known to be one of the most on-again-off-again couples known in Hollywood. But things...
Hudgens + Hutcherson?
It looks as though there might be another young-Hollywood romance a’brewing! After co-starring in “Journey to the Center of the Earth: The Mysterious Island” - yeah, we hadn’t heard of it either - Vanessa Hudgens and “The Kids Are All Right” star Josh Hutcherson have been reported to be dating. It’s common practice for speculations to arise after two...
"never say never" is number 3. of all time.
There’s no doubting that Justin Bieber is talented, I’ll give him that. But would I say that he’s nearly as talented as his accreditation shows? Absolutely not. As though the Biebs having the #1 album in the country wasn’t enough, it’s also the first remix album to hold the top spot since Jennifer Lopez’s 2002 “J to tha L-O!: The Remixes.” But...
lil kim is g'd up from the feet up.
It seems like the female MC war isn’t one-sided anymore and Nicki might have some competition. I mean she did ask “Is it my fault that all you bitches gone?” and is it, obviously not. But Lil Kim seems to want someone to hold her earrings and fight back. She recently talked to MTV News about the feud between the two MCs in which she stated:
This is the thing: It’s just,...
mariah carey to libyan gadhafi family
After news broke that Mariah Carey had once accepted money to perform for the Gadhafi family who is now under scrutiny by the world for their acts of genocide, she wanted to clear the air. She received $1million from Moammar Gadhafi for performing at a New Year’s party in St. Barts in 2009. She released a statement earlier today:
I was naïve and unaware of who I was booked to perform...

spoiler alert: glee has an announcement!
It has been announced that some of the judges for this year’s regional competition on FOX’s smash musical-comedy Glee will be some fairly famous people. Following last year’s Olivia Newton-John and Josh Groban cameo performances, this year’s competition will have My Life on The D-List star (that’s right, I said star!) Kathy Griffin as well as Loretta Devine, one of...
james franco starts social networking.
As though James Franco could not have a more impressive resume these days, he’s joined Facebook and Twitter! Ever since his big break as best friend turned villain Harry Osborn in the Sam Raimi directed Spider-Man trilogy, Franco has really tuckered down and done some serious work. He’s been in various romantic comedies such as Tristan & Isolde and Nights in Rodanthe, was one of...
david archuleta unemployed?
Apparently, David Archuleta has been dropped from Jive Records. After coming in second place to David Cook in the seventh season of American Idol, Archuleta’s debut album sold over one million copies in the United States and seemed to promise him to be on the track of Kelly Clarkson and not Justin Guarini (yeah.. remember him?). Yet now, in 2011 after his second album The Other Side of...
michael jackson's estate blows up.
It has been only a little more than a year and a half since Michael Jackson’s untimely death back in late June of 2009 but since his estate has made more money in a year and half than most pop starts earn in a decade. So far, posthumously Michael Jackson’s estate has earned more than $310 million. In addition to his posthumous studio album Michael going platinum in more than 8...

who is roman?
MTV: I guess my question is who is Roman?
Nicki Minaj: Roman is a crazy boy who lives in me. And he says the things that I do'nt wanna say. He was born, you know just a few months ago. I think he was born out of rage, he was conceived in rage. So he bashes everyone. He threathens to beat people. He's violent.
MTV: That must be nice to have like an ignorant loud mouth who you can just sort of blame every-.
Nicki Minaj: He wants to be blamed. I don't wanna blame him. I-, I ask him to leave. But he can't. He's here for a reason. People have brought him out. People conjured him up. Now he won't leave.
Nicki Minaj: When I write a rap like my brain doesn't compute and I'll right crap. It doesn't. You just have to let it happen and don't second guess yourself too much and it gets done. To me, music is like spiritual So it moves you in a weird way that you can't teach in school. So I'll hear a beat and words just start coming to me. When everything comes together, you feel like this is my castle, the world is my stage, you know, it feels like I'm in control.
paula lives to dance.
Unless you lived under a rock in the past few months, you know that American Idol is pretty much an entirely new show with new judges (Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler, yet Randy Jackson remains) and that Paula Abdul left on fairly sour terms. Yet she’s moving on to a show that’ll compete with So You Think You Can Dance. The new CBS reality show, called Live To Dance, features Abdul as a...

gomez gets death threats
I’ve just about had it with all the Beliebers out there. I wouldn’t consider myself a Justin Bieber fan but I’ll admit he’s a good performer. But this is getting out of hand. While I thought that video of the 3-year-old girl crying because she can’t marry Justin Bieber was cute, it was annoying. Obviously a 16-year-old Justin Bieber isn’t going to be interested...
Watch2010 was quite the year for recording artist and Duke University graduate Mike Posner. In April, he came from near obscurity and released his first single called “Cooler Than Me” - which I find to be terribly annoying - but it still managed to peak at #6 on the US Billboard Charts, Coming from near obscurity, he releases a single called “Cooler Than Me” - which I find to be...
kim trashdashian gets musical.
There was a point in the not so distant past, where almost every starlet on the scene was pursuing a music career, and in most cases, they had a somewhat successful venture into the music bizz. Lindsay Lohan sure had quite the musical ride for a while there, before she succumbed into major partying. Hilary Duff’s did it after Lizzie McGuire. Ashley Tisdale and Vanessa Hudgens started on...

the "u" isn't content with .500
Miami University may be one of the country’s “halo” teams when it comes to college football, but that doesn’t mean they’re good every single year. It happens to all of the haloed teams - Notre Dame, USC, Alabama, Texas, what have you - but sometimes even a 7-5 season just isn’t enough. Randy Shannon, head coach of the Miami Hurricanes since 2007 was fired late...

kanye rants some more
Kanye West is one of those people that I could literally go on and on about and never get tired of talking about how much of an ass he is. But I’m going to try to keep this as short as possible. So basically during his first My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy performance of the entire album, he breaks out and rants about how much he regrets apologizing to Taylor Swift for interrupting her...

angelina doesn't do thanksgiving.
It’s fairly common knowledge that Angelina Jolie is fuckin’ weird - I mean who wears a vile of your significant other’s blood around your neck? - and we all know she’s basically converted her husband, Brad Pitt into a wackjob too, but she doesn’t do Thanksgiving. And it’s not because she doesn’t like turkey or thinks it’s too much work to stuff the...

halle berry wants babies.
I mean it’s really no surprise that at 44-years-old, Halle Berry could be running out of time. Sure it’s becoming somewhat common for women to give birth in their 50s and there’s plenty of Halle’s colleagues who have done so after 40 - Courtney Cox Arquette, Brooke Shields, Madonna and Marcia Cross to name a few. But it’s not for everyone. And yeah, Halle has done the...

lebron plays the race card.
As though we didn’t already think of him as the world’s most egotistical and self-centered human being on earth, he goes ahead and does this. We all know the story. LeBron James made a formal announcement that he would be moving from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Miami Heat in the form of a one-hour special on ESPN that came with it’s own title: “The Decision.” The...

social network star doesn't use them.
Could there be a more ironic situation? I’m not really sure. The upcoming drama The Social Network chronicles the life of Facebook CEO and co-founder, Mark Zuckerberg. The movie stars Jesse Eisenberg (as Zuckerberg) and Justin Timberlake, but given todays day and age of constant connection to entertainment media through social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter, you would think...

Überproducer RedOne has produced songs for Enrique Iglesias, Lady GaGa, Sean Kingston, Akon, Selena Gomez, and is even producing a song for Lindsay Lohan. That’s in addition to writing songs for New Kids on the Block, Brandy, MIKA, Kylie Minogue, Nicole Scherzinger and even Lionel Richie. The produced a...

lohan is free.
In an odd twist of fate, another Los Angeles judge intervened in the ruling that Lindsay Lohan would have to go to jail again without the opportunity to post bail after failing a court-mandated drug test. The superior judge decided that Lohan had been given a harsh punishment and allowed Lohan to post the $300,000 bail and she gets away scotch-free, provided she shows up on time to her October...

de rossi no more.
Don’t call her Portia de Rossi. Because that’s not her name, anymore at least. Having been married to talk show host, Ellen DeGeneres for more than two years, the 37-year-old Australian actress has finally become Portia DeGeneres. The two were married on August 16, 2008 and were some of the first to be married in the state of California who were of the same gender. Portia asked for...

the jacksons want more money.
As if the rest of the Jackson family were paupers, Katherine Jackson - mother of the late Michael Jackson - is headed back to the courts asking for a readjustment of the monthly family allowance for Katherine Jackson and her three grandchildren: Prince, Paris and Blanket. The family is asking to have their $26,000 per month allowance be readjusted after Katherine was finding it hard to live on...

lohan back in prison.
We all should have seen this coming, really. We should have expected her to fail a drug test, which is exactly what happened. She failed a recent random drug test that were mandatory by court-order after her sentencing and her two-week stay in the Lynwood, California correctional facility. The actress-turned-socialite, Lindsay Lohan, has been in prison twice before during which both instances...

LC is back on TV.
Lauren Conrad may have left MTV’s Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County in 2005 for her own MTV reality TV show called The Hills. But even though the concept of the show was driven towards her following her dreams in Los Angeles, drama between former cast members Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt got the best of her and forced her to leave her own show to where the network replaced her with...

São Paolo, Brazil is not only the largest city in Brazil and South America, it’s also the largest city in the southern hemisphere, which means it’s bigger than Sydney, Australia and Jakarta, Indonesia. It’s also the seventh most populous metropolitan area in the world, which makes for some pretty close quarters which is never good when a fire breaks out in one of the poorest...

reality to runway.. to retail.
If you haven’t heard the name Whitney Port by now, you will soon. She first became famous as fellow intern to Lauren Conrad’s at Teen Vogue on MTV’s hit reality TV show The Hills. The show ran its course and eventually Whitney & Lauren were done with Teen Vogue and moved on to fashion PR firm People’s Revolution in Los Angeles. Working under Kelly Cutrone, Whitney...

zuckerberg gives back.
Newark, New Jersey is heralded as the 22nd most crime-ridden city in the nation, and it’s education system doesn’t help that fact. Way back in 1995, the state of New Jersey seized control over the city’s education system after it had failed. The state replaced all school board members. This reign could possibly be coming to an end. Today, CEO and co-founder of the world’s...

In the season premiere of Gossip Girl’s fourth season, we are treated to something new: Blair and Serena in Paris and not New York. They have spent the summer there after they were both left lonely and somewhat depressed - especially on B’s side. They enjoyed their summer using retail therapy away from everything but each other but that doesn’t necessarily mean Blair is over Chuck. Although she...

Sunday night marked what some might consider the biggest night of the year for many celebrities - or at least the younger generation of them. Two nights ago MTV celebrated the 27th Video Music Awards (or what we commonly refer to as the VMAs) in Los Angeles’ Nokia Theater. The show was hosted by loud-mouthed and no-holds-barred television personality Chelsea Handler who is infamous for...

In case you didn’t know, on the social-networking site, Facebook, you can’t block it’s creator and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg. I’m not entirely sure why you would want to block him, since he’s the one who sends you information about updates and new features, etc. but you should try it. If you go to his Facebook profile and submit the prompts to block him, an error message...

First it’s the alleged sex tape between The Hills star Lauren Conrad and her ex-boyfriend and fellow Laguna Beach alum, Jason Wahler. That alleged sex tape cost Speidi their friendship with Lauren Conrad which...
