Star Spotting: Rihanna Brings The Heat At The 'Battleship' Premiere

Posted 5/11/12 10:00 am EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Rihanna knows how to work a white dress, seen here at the U.S. 'Battleship' premiere.

How do we love Rihanna, let us count the ways. RiRi showed up to the U.S. premiere of her film "Battleship" last night and went straight b***s to the wall. Hear that? That's Angelina Jolie's Oscar leg quivering in fear. Who run the world? Rihanna.

Homegirl brought out the big guns (and by "guns" we mean "gams") at the screening of her movie "Battleship" last night in L.A., and we're seriously sobbing Kristen-Wiig-in-that-one-"SNL"-skit style right now. We went on record yesterday praising Ri's dance skills in her video for "Where Have You Been," and now it looks like Tyra Banks might want to hire the "We Found Love" singer as a judge on "America's Next Top Model." THIS, ladies and gents, is how you pose. Werque, sister. And then forward us the name of your nutritionist. Like, yesterday.

Posted 5/10/12 3:07 pm EST by in Music

Walk The Moon reveal album art and track list for their upcoming debut album, 'Walk The Moon.'

2012 MTV Artist To Watch Walk The Moon are getting ready for the release of their self-titled debut album, out June 19. Because we're BFFs with them (not that we're bragging or anything), we've got the album art and track list for y'all.Survey says: It rules. Any album art with a psychedelic tree house on it is a winner in my book.

Esquire named Walk The Moon's infectious "Anna Sun" the "Song of the Summer" in 2011, and after almost a full year of listening to it, we still can't get enough. We invited these guys to play the mtvU Woodies Awards Fest back in March, and after totally slaying it there, fun. invited them out to hit the road in Europe this fall. You can also check them out on tour this summer across the U.S. with Morning Parade.

+ Check out Walk The Moon's full track list after the jump, and pick up a copy of Walk The Moon when it drops June 19.

Britney Spears Officially Joins 'The X Factor' As A Judge, We Hyperventilate

Posted 5/10/12 10:15 am EST by in Celebrity, Music, News

OMFG y'all, it ACTUALLY happened. After rumors were swirling about Britney Spears joining "The X Factor" as a judge, we were so excited that we punched a fire extinguisher box. Oh wait, that was Amar'e Stoudemire. I mean, we were so excited that we just waited patiently to hear if the news was official. And... IT IS. Godney will be gracing our television screens every week as the newest judge on the next season of "The X Factor." Yessss!

This decision didn't come cheap -- Brit is reportedly earning a whopping $15 million to sit at the judge's table, and we can't even fathom what that paycheck looks like. And forgive us, but we're having a hard time imagining what kind of advice Britney will give to the up-and-coming musicians. It's almost like that time I had to teach an Internet 101 class to a group of retired factory workers (true story) -- how do you go from writing HTML all day to explaining what Google is? How does Britney Spears go from conquering the music industry to explaining what an octave is? But that's all in the fun of watching! Well that, and just GETTING TO SEE BRITNEY SPEARS ON TV EVERY WEEK.

"The X Factor" returns to Fox this September. Auditions for the next season are currently under way.

Star Spotting: Miley Cyrus Is Totally GORG In Her New Twitter Photo

Posted 5/10/12 10:00 am EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Miley Cyrus: Super gorgeous.

We are dying over this Miley Cyrus photo right now, guys. Miley uploaded the pic yesterday to Twitter and tweeted to photographer Brian Bowen Smith, "I <3 you. I really do." UM, we love that dude, too. You. Look. AMAZE. From the side-swept bangs to the quadruple lashes you're rocking, you look like a little rock-and-roll cherub or something. Also, any idea how much a session with Brian runs? Because I could really use a new Twitter avatar myself.

My friend recently asked me, "Are you ever Facebook stalking through strangers photos and think, 'I want their life?'" And I was all, "No way, man, my life is great and you can't measure yourself against other people." But then I secretly just wait for Miley to upload new photos and cry myself to sleep a little. Teach us your ways, Milers!

Rita Ora On The Wanted vs. One Direction + The Advice Jay-Z Gave Her (VIDEO)

Posted 5/9/12 5:16 pm EST by in Celebrity, Interviews, Videos

It's not often that a new artist comes along and scores comparisons to two of the world's biggest pop stars. I'm talking about British singer Rita Ora, one of Roc Nation's newest signees, who's already garnered critical acclaim likening her to both Rihanna and Beyoncé. Rita stopped by MTV recently, and we had the chance to shoot the breeze with her. We also had to the chance to marvel at her seriously flawless skin up close, and we booked an emergency facial immediately after our chat.

Star Spotting: Rihanna's PDA With Rick Ross

Posted 5/9/12 10:00 am EST by in Celebrity, Photos

Rick Ross gets a little Rihanna love at the Met Gala.

The photos on Rihanna's Twitter feed are basically just a wild free-for-all. It's almost like you wanna be like, "Rihanna, less is more," but then you remember that she's super effing pretty and don't mind the total barrage of tweets at all hours of the day.

One of her latest pics? A photo of her and the Teflon Don himself (Rick Ross) getting all cuddly at the Met Gala earlier this week in NYC. Rihanna posted the pic with the caption, "We gonna have babies." Um, not that we have any say as to what you do with your body, but we would just like to quietly suggest that you do not actually have a baby (or babies) with Rick Ross. No doubt it would be the illest little nugget to ever exist (and one that we'd never want to meet in a dark alley), but how would you even change the kid's diapers? Have you seen your nails recently, RiRi? Come on now.

PHOTOS: Pop Stars And Pets!

Posted 5/8/12 3:46 pm EST by in Celebrity, Photos

You know when you're having a crappy day, and all you want to do is go home and hang out with your dog or cat? Me neither, 'cause my landlord is totally rude about his animal policy. But for most of our pop star pals, they're just like us -- nothing can put a smile on your face like your pet can!

It's hard to imagine any of these people actually caring for a pet themselves (feeding it, walking it, changing the litter box, etc.). Most pop stars are all probably rich enough to hire a pet sitter to do all the dirty work, but let's just suspend our disbelief for the sake of this post, OK? Take a look through our POP STARS AND PETS PHOTO GALLERY, and "ooh" and "aww" along with us. Or in Selena Gomez's case, "Huh?" is more appropriate. Why is that dog so scared?

See more photos of our favorite pop stars and their pets below the jump, and check them all out in our POP STARS AND PETS PHOTO GALLERY!
