The 17 Best Halloween Episodes In TV History

by 35 mins ago

Over the last few decades, holiday-themed “special” episodes have become as crucial to the network television landscape as sweeps and season finale cliffhangers. At their best they leave Halloween memories and costume hacks (we’re talking to you, Three Hole Punch Jim) for years to come, and at their worst, well, at least there’s always next week.

We’re focusing on the former category, here, so below find the 17 most awesomely memorable Halloween episodes in television history:

17. “The Rocky Horror Glee Show”

Just kidding, this episode was horrible. We’re here for Chris Colfer as Riff Raff and of course the singing, but boy, was this the beginning of the end for “Glee” as we once knew it. Let’s move on.

16. “Haunted” from “The Vampire Diaries”

“Haunted” was the first legitimately great episode of “The Vampire Diaries.” When many CW-watchers were about ready to pull the plug after week six, in came the Halloween episode to kill off a supposedly main character, ramp up Damon Salvatore as a villain, and drastically change the emotional direction of the show. Also, with everybody decked out in Halloween attire and Vampire Vicky terrorizing the town, it stands on its own as a Halloween special.

15. “Who Got Dee Pregnant?” from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”

This episode was great for many reasons, but the change in perspective and increasing levels of drunkenness eventually leading to the guys seeing Dee as an ostrich was an excellent culmination to a years-old joke.

14. “Spooky ...

Here’s The Next Round Of Rita Ora’s Adidas Originals Collab

by 35 mins ago

Now that Rita Ora’s first collaboration pack has been picked over, it’s as if Adidas read our minds because they just announced the release of the next installment. It’s perfect timing too, since I was running out of options to pair my leather sports bra with (heh). Luckily, there are plenty of killer pieces in this round.

The new batch has two very different aesthetics. The first is an assortment of grey and black paint-splattered pieces inspired by street art. Though it wouldn’t be surprising if Rita’s role in a certain upcoming movie that made gray (or rather, “Grey”) a household word also played a part in it.

Rita came up with a gray track suit, t-shirt, matching beanie that look like the most comfortable thing you could wear as November weather descends upon us.

She also created three pairs of matching sneakers—two hi-tops and one low-top—that would go with just about anything. (Leather sports bra included.)

Vine Star Jerome Jarre’s Reason For Turning Down $1 Million Is Amazing: Watch

by 6 mins ago

For the past few years, Jerome Jarre has been creating a Vine empire, six seconds at a time. The young and talented videographer’s brand of fearless slapstick humor has earned him a whopping 7.5 million followers and enough clout to open his own social media agency, GrapeStory.

Recently, his tremendous fan base and abundant body of work attracted the attention of a top-ranking New York ad agency, which offered Jarre a million dollars in exchange for one year of working for them in New York, according to his recently posted YouTube video.

It was an almost irresistible offer, because things haven’t always been quite so rosy for the French born jokester. As the son of a struggling single mother, Jerome spent much of his youth constantly moving and frequently bullied for the way he looked and dressed.

Jerome JarreJerome Jarre

As a teen and young adult, Jarre fell into the habit of constant partying and found himself “completely unhappy with life,” at which point he decided to hit the “reset” button by making the gutsy move to drop out of business school and buy a one-way ticket to China.

While there, he learned English and met a friend who changed his entire life philosophy by asking him the compelling question…

“Imagine you’re 99 years old and on your death bed. If you had a chance to come back to right now, what would you do?”

Viewing life from this angle inspired Jarre to begin living one adventure at ...

Looks Like French Montana Is On Rick Ross’ ‘RossFit’ Regimen, Too

by 1 min ago

Apparently, Rick Ross and DJ Khaled aren’t the only ones trying to get in shape for year-round bikini weather. Rozay has been shedding those pounds with his “RossFit” regimen, Khaled has been slimming down and now French Montana is posting pictures of his beach bod.

The “Don’t Panic” rapper shared a recent photo on his Instagram account, which was definitely meant to show off the six-pack he’s been working on. He captioned it, “Back at it #turbogrind #dontplayyourself #haaaa #crossfitFollow,” but I’m pretty sure he meant to write “RossFit.”

Looks like Rozay is inspiring more than music in his crew. A few months ago, he admitted that, before taking on this new regimen, “The most I used to do for exercise was stand up and count money.” Good for you Ross, but just for the record — I’m still counting money for exercise.

French is getting ready to drop his Mac and Cheese 4 project in November (unless plans have changed since the last time we spoke to him). If the reports are true, he and Khloe Kardashian have split, so maybe that also contributed to this desire to get fit. We all cope in different ways.

8 Things We Learned About Taylor Swift From A Handwriting Expert

by 21 mins ago

Taylor Swift isn’t really afraid to lay it all bare via the singable diary entries that are her songs. Yup, when it comes to her business, she’s as open as, well, a business on a weekday.

Still, we Swifties will not be sated until we understand every facet of her bubbly kitten-crammed personality. We want to breathe ourselves into her beautiful soul, basically, and we will not rest until we do.

Related: Here’s What Waiting For Taylor Swift’s ’1989′ Album Feels Like

So MTV News hit up forensic document examiner and handwriting expert Dianne Peterson who took a look at all those handwritten 1989 lyrics Tay has been posting (assuming she penned them herself), and asked her to tell us what she could glean from all that ink.

I don’t know about you, but I feel closer to Taylor already, guys. But maybe that’s because I’m wearing a vintage nightgown, drinking a Diet Coke and squeezing a kitten while writing this.

But I digress… Read on:

1. She’s Honest

“Taylor has open O’s — this means she is an honest person.”

2. She’s A Good Listener

“The eyelets of her lower case ‘e’s and ‘a’s are open, which means she is a good listener.”

3. She’s Sassy

“The cross bar of her ‘t’s are pointed on one end, which means she can be sarcastic and may have a sharp tongue at times.”

You’ll Never Touch Your Hair Again After Seeing These 9 Horrifying Scenes

by 36 mins ago

Over the years, the horror genre has roundly proved that literally anything can be frightening, if you try really hard and believe in yourself and watch a lot of scary movies. But when it comes to imbuing ordinary everyday stuff with a sense of dread and doom, one of horror’s finest accomplishments has to be making us afraid of our own hair.

Below, we round up the best onscreen material ever to feature terrifying tresses.

1. In “The Grudge,” a nice, normal shampooing scene suddenly took a turn for the horrific.

2. Long flowing hair became a lot less sexy after Samara dragged it across the floor in “The Ring.”

3. Not to mention this ghastly homage to those awful moments when you get a hair stuck in your throat.

4. In this scene from “Teen Wolf,” a potential drain clog was the least of Lydia’s problems.

5. In “Grave Encounters,” one of the ghost-hunting team members was teased by a ghost, grade-school style. (Ooooh, this means he likes her, right?)

6. In “The Walking Dead,” we were treated to this charming scene in which the Governor lovingly brushed his undead daughter’s… scalp off. He brushed her scalp off. THAT IS HER SCALP.

7. In “The Haunting,” a guest at the creep-tastic Hill House mansion discovered that her room was haunted by a ghostly hairdresser, which would be incredibly convenient if it weren’t also freakin’ terrifying.

by 1 min ago

Jupiter Ascending” doesn’t hit theaters until February 6, 2015 – but starting in January you can take home adorable versions of Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis’ characters, courtesy of Funko‘s Pop! Vinyl line which MTV News is exclusively revealing to you, right now.

In the movie, Kunis is Jupiter Jones, a regular old Earth girl who finds out she’s actually secretly a galactic queen, and next in line to rule the entire planet. She’s not just Jupiter Jones… She’s Queen Jupiter.

She finds this out from Tatum’s Caine Wise, a genetically engineered hunter tasked with protecting Jupiter from forces that would prefer not to have her in charge of the planet’s destiny.

The figures all stand 3.75″ tall, and come in a window display box. They’re for ages five and up, and as mentioned will hit stores in January. Now when can we get those “Magic Mike” figures we’ve been asking for?
