It would take a a ton of patience and a very steady hand to get a real pumpkin looking exactly like some of our favorite celebs. And we're too busy scaring ourselves with celebrity zombies and getting our lazy people's Lady Gaga and Katy Perry costumes ready to be bothered with scooping out the seeds, tacking on the stencil and beginning to carve, only to end up throwing down the carving tools, trashing the pumpkin altogether and playing video games. Or is that just me?

So we had one of our graphic designers here at MTV get us the next best thing--Photoshopped celebrity pumpkins! From Justin Bieber to Willow Smith, some of these gourds are both trick and treat.

We can see it now--Spencer Pratt as Ichabod Crane and Heidi Montag as The Headless Horseman.  But I can think of a couple reasons why she might need to get her horseman's cape altered a bit (ahem).

The evolution from Snooki to Snooki pumpkin (Snookin?) is a natural one seeing as how the little guidette is already the perfect shade of orange. But it might be hard to find a pumpkin with a pouf growing from the top of it. Wait, does Ed Hardy make pumpkins yet?

In a very Step Up (2 or even better, 3-D) move, Justin Bieber and Willow Smith engaged in an epic dance-off on stage during Justin's tour in Los Angeles. Each pop sensation already has their own hair situation for which he/she is famous--Bieber for his brushed-forward bangs and Willow for her wildly popular hair-whipping. Since that's already established, naturally, they had to then figure out who is best dancer between them. So, much to the delight of squealing fans at the Staples Center, Justin Bieber and Willow challenged each other to friendly dance battle using rap group Cali Swag District's "Teach Me How to Dougie."

After watching the video, we're convinced that both the "Whip My Hair" singer AND the "Baby" crooner could pretty much teach a class on how to Dougie, complete with a syllabus. In fact, they'll teach you how to dougie and give YOU a pop-quiz involving critical thinking questions.

For Justin Bieber, this isn't the first Bieber-Smith collaboration. He teamed up with Willow's brother (and Will and Jada's son) Jaden on their "Never Say Never" duet. The duo showcase some impressive shoulder shimmying and some super get-low moves.

Who do you think emerged the victor of this Dougie-ing duel? Sound off in the comments!

If you thought Snooki was the only entertaining thing to come out of Poughkeepsie, N.Y. (no offense, Samuel F. B. Morse, inventor of the telegraph and Morse code), get to know We Are The In Crowd.

Having only formed in 2009, it's pretty impressive that the group was added so quickly to the 2010 Vans Warped Tour roster. And in part, they have a group of hackers to thank. We Are The In Crowd's MySpace page was hacked in April of last year, and all of the band's friends and music were deleted. News of the hacking caught the attention of Hopeless Records, and after hearing what the band was all about, We Are The In Crowd was signed to the label shortly after. I bet those hackers didn't think that far ahead.

We Are The In Crowd's songs are catchy and high energy, and also super fun. Lead singer Taylor Jardine can belt, and we can imagine We Are The In Crowd on a party playlist with the likes of All Time Low and Cartel, who happen to be their current tourmates.

We Are The In Crowd's debut EP, Guaranteed to Disagree, was released in June of this year. Check out We Are the In Crowd's Web site for tour dates.

Uh oh. We're officially obsessed with Ke$ha's new track "Sleazy," from her upcoming Cannibal album, which will be released Nov. 22.

On "Sleazy," Ke$ha shuns her usual Shakespearean iambic pentameter (just kidding!) in exchange for a commendable commitment to fun rhymes like "I don't mean to critique on your seduction technique." By which, she means, she totally will AND in song. You're wild, Ke$ha! Ke$ha effectively launches a campaign against (in this order):

1.) [Your] brand-new benz.

2.) Looking like diamondsssssssss.

3.) [Your] bougie friends.

In contrast to her past selection of dancy club beats, this "you're an a---hole" anthem calls out (we're assuming) a rich dude Ke$ha is over hanging out with. The track boasts a kind of snappy-catchy "London Bridge" meets "Hollaback girl" vibe. "Sleazy" was produced by Bangladesh, whose past work include Beyoncé's "Diva" and "Video Phone," as well as tracks by Ludacris and Nelly.

And by the way, we anticipate quoting "Rat tat tat tat on your dumb dumb drums" in several of our conversations today. As in, "Stop rat tat tat tatting on your dumb dumb drums and return my text!" Just as an example.

+ Listen to Ke$ha's 'Sleazy.'

BREAKING NEWS: Kanye West tweets with his caps lock turned off! And who knew he was a Conan O'Brien fan? The Twittersphere was full of love this week, from Kanye praising his cohort Jay-Z to Britney Spears declaring herself a Willow Smith fan. Lady Gaga also gives us some insight into that duet with Elton John we're all waiting for, and Pink does what she does best--tells it like it is.

My favorite tweet of the week comes from Justin Bieber, dishing out 16-year-old dating advice that many adult men don't seem to have a handle on. Oh, Biebz. If it wasn't probably illegal for me to hang your picture in my locker, I would.

We pity the FOOL who doesn't appreciate Nicki Minaj's efforts to involve a little FLAIR into her lifestyle. We're pretty sure the "Your Love" singer's got spunk and spark by the looks of her Mr. T style necklace collection she rocked yesterday on BET's "106 & Park." Essentially, Barbies, Nicki Minaj is joining the jewelry A-Team! By our count, it looks like she's got at least three gold chains going on, with a healthy amount of additional wrist bling to boot. Has she been scheduling shopping dates with Kanye West as executive accessories consultant? Also, we know long, fringed styles are nothing new to the Harajuku Barbie, but Nicki Minaj's hair is looking more Cleopatra than ever, right? We'd also guess the Egyptian-style heavily kohl-lined eyes are no accident. Nicki loves a theme look!

So, on "106 & Park" Nicki Minaj premiered her new video "Right Through Me" and indulged her screaming fans in a question-and-answer session. It was pandemonium! You really must see for yourself.

Katy Perry's previous videos celebrated lust-filled road trips and demonstrated that with a little careful engineering that one can turn a bra into a whipped cream projectile.

But in her brand-new "Firework" video, Katy Perry takes a joyful yet slightly more serious approach to storytelling. (Sorry--no "melt-your-Popsicle" knowing winks.)

"Firework," filmed in Budapest, takes both a literal and metaphorical look at fireworks. "Firework" opens with a classically dressed Katy Perry on a balcony, in a scene befitting an opera. The video cuts to scenes of a sick child in a hospital and a robust girl at a pool party, afraid to show herself in just a bathing suit.

One of the best elements of "Firework" is the song's soaring, epic crescendo. As the song builds and swells, we see fireworks literally shooting out of Katy Perry's chest. Turns out this is an international epidemic, as the fireworks spread to the child in the hospital, a woman giving birth (to fireworks! It looks painful!), two men who kiss (nice!) and finally to the girl at the pool who strips down and joyously jumps in (in your FACE, Maura Kelly). The video ends with Katy Perry taking to the streets, which are filled with fireworks.

Katy Perry dedicated "Firework" to the "It Gets Better" campaign, and while the song itself is inspirational, the video illuminates the song's hope for bright nights and better days.

My Chemical Romance's "Na Na Na" video is a campy, kitschy, crazy joyride, which stars My Chemical Romance as killjoys: "Party Poison" (Gerard Way), "Jet Star" (Ray Toro), "Fun Ghoul" (Frank Iero) and "Kobra Kid" (Mikey Way), who are out to fight the modern-day evils of Better Living Industries.

But "Na Na Na" also features a ton of full-speed-ahead, high-octane, blink-and-miss-'em little details that add up to an expertly art-directed video (by Jason Fijal) that sets the California desert on fire.

We already showed you one behind-the-scenes video from the "Na Na Na" set. But now we have a brand-new, never-before-seen making-of the "Na Na Na" video, where we zoom in on all of My Chemical Romance's brilliant little "Na Na Na" details, from the letter-perfect graffiti, precise detailing on that '79 Trans Am, the rayguns, the otherworldly beings--aliens, mannequins, mascots and misfits--right down to the bloody beds at the worst roadside motel ever.

"Na Na Na" was directed by Roboshobo and Gerard Way, based on Gerard's video concept, and this behind-the-scenes, video-behind-the-video shows Gerard and the band in the costumes Gerard sketched (designed by Colleen Atwood), putting the Technicolor-spaghetti-western-on-crank, "Natural Born Killers" finishing touches on the video.

See how My Chemical Romance's "Na Na Na" was made in this exclusive behind-the-scenes video. My Chemical Romance's Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys album is out Nov. 22.

Set your DVRs because Rihanna will join the likes of Miley Cyrus, B.o.B. and Hayley Williams and take the stage to perform at the 2010 MTV EMA!

Rihanna first hit the EMA stage back in 2006 to perform her hit "S.O.S.," and since then a whole new Rihanna has emerged: The good girl went bad and got a new "R" rating. The one-time girl-next-door (from Barbados) is now a full-on, envelope-pushing fashion goddess, who, in addition to topping charts and winning Grammys, can also now add actress and author to her résumé. AND she's a four-time EMA nominee for Best Pop, Best Song, Best Female and Best Video! We love you, Rihanna, but give the rest of us gals a chance!

No word yet on which song Rihanna will be performing from her upcoming album, Loud, but does it really matter? Rihanna always hits the stage with killer energy, amazing hair, insane ensembles and confidence like she's the "only girl in the world." (See what I did there?)

+ Cast your 2010 MTV EMA vote, and watch the show on Sunday, Nov. 7, at 9/8c on MTV2.
