New Video: New Kids On The Block, '(Remix) I Like The'

Posted 3/7/13 2:07 pm EST by in Celebrity, Music, Must See, Videos

NKOTB cleans up and looks sharp in their latest hilarious video, featuring "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia"'s Artemis Pebdani.

Artemis Pebdani stars in New Kids On The Block's brand-new video for "(Remix) I Like The."

Allow me to quote New Kids On The Block when I say "I like the new YOU" (well, and the old you, too. Let's be real here). Even though it demonstrates a flagrant disregard for keeping direct objects in a title, we're suddenly very obsessed with NKOTB's new video for "(Remix) I Like The," which features the quintet looking posh (and very V2, I might add) in their best Justin Timberlake/Jay-Z-style suit and ties. One can only hope they'll wear such dashing duds on their upcoming Package Tour (which we're still snarf-laughing and blushing over every time the name comes up) kicking off in May. We like the remix, baby.

PLEASE Watch Old Navy's Incredible 'Twas The Jordan Knight Before Christmas' Commercial (VIDEO)

Posted 11/30/12 2:02 pm EST by in Celebrity, Must See, Videos

Santa's been replaced by Jordan Knight in Old Navy's amazing new commercial.

OK, Old Navy's ad team deserves a CLIO for their commitment to '90s pop culture nostalgia. First there was the "90210" commercial in which Kelly Taylor chooses JEANS. And who can forget the one with the Backstreet Boys tumbling out of an enormous boom box while peddling jeggings? (P.S. We bought a pair.) And now they're giving us a "Funky Funky Christmas" miracle: "Twas The Jordan Knight Before Christmas" commercial.

The commercial opens with crooner Johnny Mathis (legend status -- Google it) telling what is quite frankly a much better version of "Twas The Night Before Christmas." He gets about one sentence into the tale before NKOTB's Jordan Knight bursts into the house looking young enough to be his own SON, rocking red (that suit may be a hat tip to Psy) and flanked by elves. Because Jordan K. feels so Christmasy!

Posted 11/5/12 3:00 pm EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Beyoncé and Jay-Z look way stylish at the Nets opening game.

There IS love in the heart of Brooklyn -- at least there was this weekend. There are so many PRESSING things to discuss about this photo of Jay-Z and Beyoncé sitting courtside at Saturday's Toronto Raptors vs. Brooklyn Nets opening game at the Barclays Center. But let's start with Beyoncé's BANGS, mmkay?

Check out more pictures of Beyoncé and Jay-Z after the jump!

Hayden Panettiere Is A Country Star Now. Y'all Think She's Country Strong? (VIDEO)

Posted 10/26/12 3:00 pm EST by in Celebrity, Music, Videos

Hayden Panettiere goes country strong in her new video for "Telescope."

Hayden Panettiere, er, we mean "Nashville" character Juliette Barnes, has officially dropped a brand-new pop-country music video called "Telescope" (aka Nashville's first official single!). Though at first we were surprised to see Hayden's country-fied turn, now we have to admit that the former Heroes hottie is totally holding her own.

For all y'all skeptics out there, this isn't Hayden's first rodeo: In addition to releasing another pop-country single "Wake Up Call" back in 2008, she totally looks the part with her all-American blonde hair, lashes to there, hemlines beyond mini, and a healthy dash of cleavage. Musically speaking, she's managed to channel the vixen vibes of Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert with just a touch of Taylor Swift and is giving Connie Britton's hair a run for its money as the best character on "Nashville," if you ask me. Country Stronger than yesterday!

Britney Spears Is Giving Us 'Baby One More Time' Schoolgirl Flashbacks In Lucky Magazine (PHOTO)

Posted 10/26/12 12:34 pm EST by in Celebrity, Music, Must See, Photos, Videos

Britney's old-school stance in Lucky mag is giving us "Baby One More Time" flashbacks.

Look, who can discuss things like impending frankenstorms when BRITNEY SPEARS has landed the December 2012 cover of Lucky magazine, (cue up "Lucky," if you haven't yet), and inside the mag, she's channeling her schoolgirl style of yore? Britney looks fabulous, and the vengeful, Taylor Swift-ish part of me can't help but wonder if her stunning cover was perfectly timed to match Justin Timberlake's bride-jumping cover of People magazine.

Take a closer gander at this sweet-sexy look from her Lucky photo shoot, and then turn back a page in your Brit-story books, and you'll notice that this could be a sly nod to her "Baby One More Time" schoolgirl roots. The midriff and short skirt are basically the grown-up version of her iconic Catholic schoolgirl look. Like, say hello to the girl Britney IS! And let us all tiny clap Britney-style to celebrate the fact that almost 15 years later, Britney's STILL GOT the schoolgirl thing on lock. (Isn't she LUCKY?) Personally, I'm flexing my most aspirational abs whilst moving my forearms vertically rapidly in front of my face. Not that I've practiced that move at length since 1999... Well, not today, anyway.

Check out Britney Spears' Lucky magazine cover and watch Britney videos after the jump.

An Open Letter To Justin Bieber Regarding Barfing Onstage AND TOTALLY RALLYING!

Posted 10/1/12 4:43 pm EST by in Celebrity, Music

I heard Justin Bieber puked onstage because he took down Chuck Norris.

Dear Justin Bieber,

Congrats, dude! You are officially the king of the boot and rally. As the former duchess of THAT sovereign nation (when I was in college, not, like, last week) I have to throw you a pretty hefty braVA. You kicked off your Believe tour this Saturday in Phoenix and charitably turned away from the crowd and straight-up VOMITED on stage during "Out Of Town Girl." More like out of TUMMY! And then? You finished out the performance like a CHAMPION and politely apologized to your fans. BAWSE MOVE!

Credit is DUE, and we are GIVING it. Way to be badass, Bieber! When we feel that horrendous, we just throw on a Slanket, watch "Melrose Place" incessantly on Netflix and call in sick for a week (because just in case!!)

And you were even EFFICIENT about it. No basic beyatch dry-heaves for you. You made it count, and you didn't act like a wuss about it. Which is so punk rock. Basically, nature called, you felt the urge, you did your biz and you didn't miss a beat. That, my nauseated friend, is dedication.

After the show, you even tweeted about the incident, joking that "Milk was a bad choice! Lol," later adding, "Great show. Getting better for tomorrow's show."

Do you want to explain to me how you manage to have swagger while you're yakking? Also, here's to hoping you're feeling better. We'll raise a glass of Milk of Magnesia to you, Justin Bieber, a real human being and a real hero.

Love,

Amber

Nick And Vanessa Lachey Welcome New Son Camden. Also, Did They Borrow Kristin Cavallari's Baby Name?

Posted 9/13/12 2:00 pm EST by in Celebrity

Mazel tov to Nick and Vanessa Lachey on their new addition!

We couldn't be more excited for Vanessa and Nick Lachey, who just welcomed their first son into the family last night! We are, however, experiencing a bit of name-ja-vu. The 98 Degreer (both in temperature and vocation) and his wife are calling their bouncing baby boy Camden John Lachey.

A Shirtless Celine Dion Wears Teddy Bear Pants In 'V Magazine'... Wait, WHAT!? (PHOTO)

Posted 8/24/12 4:02 pm EST by in Celebrity, Must See, Photos

Yes, that's Celine Dion. No, we don't really know how. Or why.

Were you or were you not JUST saying to your friend, "Friend! I will simply EXPIRE if the summer of 2012 comes to a close without Celine Dion donning pants (with suspenders, no less, although let's be real -- THAT'S not the odd thing about them) adorned with half a Toys 'R Us worth of stuffed animals. (We've binged on enough MTV Style to know that those pants are the handiwork of Jeremy Scott, by the way.)

Right about now, you're surely huffing smelling salts after fainting over these photos of Celine Dion, so hopefully it's all coming back to you now. Because yes, that's really Celine, in pants that look like they'd gain her certain entry to the Electric Daisy Carnival, wearing bunny ears and what looks like a "Phantom Of The Opera" mask for V Magazine. Breathe that in.

Breathe.

Breathe...

But wait! In the next photo, a topless, slender Celine channels a '60s-era Playboy bunny.

Yep. I said TOPLESS Celine Dion. With all due respect to "the greatest singer in the world," I don't know that I needed a photo of a topless Celine Dion. Will my heart go on after this? I hope so.

Star Spotting: NKOTB And The Wanted Visit Aaron Carter At 'The Fantasticks' Because BOY BANDS BE ERRYWHERE! (PHOTO)

Posted 8/23/12 6:45 pm EST by in Celebrity, Music, Photos

Aw! Aaron's internal monologue is surely saying: "Please don't go BOYS! I'm GLAD YOU CAME."

BOY BAND WORLDS ARE COLLIDING! Bust out your very best silverware because THIS RIGHT HERE is what I call a boy band TRIFLE. Layers upon layers, racks on racks of my favorite boy banders from the '80s, '90s and TODAY (in the words of your favorite soft rock radio station) joined Aaron Carter to support him backstage after his performance in Broadway's "The Fantasticks."

Aaron's longtime pals Jonathan Knight from New Kids On The Block and Tom Parker, Jay McGuiness and Nathan Sykes from The Wanted -- they're up for a Best New Artist VMA, in case you missed that along the way -- came to support their brother in pop and look adorable together. They are patrons of the arts, and clearly, they look good doing it. I mean, just look at the decorations -- even the walls backstage can tell that this is a festive opportunity for the ages. It's so weird they forgot to invite us! Side note: What is Jonathan Knight using on his SKIN? That man has barely aged a day since his image appeared on the oversized pin from our first NKOTB concert TWENTY YEARS AGO. Just sayin', Jon.

And if you haven't already, catch Aaron Carter as Matt in "The Fantasticks" until Oct. 21, and watch our favorite boy bands get grilled in MTV News' Ultimate Boy Band Quiz.

An Open Letter To Joe Jonas Regarding His Butterfly Shirt

Posted 8/21/12 4:23 pm EST by in Celebrity, Must See, Photos

Joe. Your shirt is a study in Entomology.

Dear Joe Jonas,

Listen. About that butterfly shirt you wore yesterday on the "Today" show. I'm just trying to UNDERSTAND it, and for me, it falls somewhere on the difficult-to-grasp spectrum between quantum physics and string theory. But work with me! Here are my theories.

1.) It's a grand gesture of your feelings for Mariah Carey. You've already made public your passion for Gloria Estefan, now you'd like to expand your admiration of the 42-and-up-set to include (indirectly) your vision of love for Mariah, who's made her love of Lepidoptera famous thanks to her album and song.

2.) It's an inside joke with Britney Spears! She's also a fan of the colorful insect and has a butterfly tattoo as well as a butterfly on her B in the Mix: The Remixes album. Joe, are you testing out a non-permanent version of butterfly tats before committing to the ink as an homage to Britney?

3.) You've tacitly accepted that you and your ex, Taylor Swift, are never (ever ever) getting back together (if the song's even about you), so you're  expressing your freedom sartorially. Or you're showcasing your bachelor status as juxtaposition of her reported new Kennedy relationship.

OH JUST TELL US, JOE. And P.S. We prefer you in white.

Love,

Amber
