This Dog Goes Skydiving And Has The Chillest Time Ever

by 3 mins ago

One look at Riley the dog, and you know that he’s the raddest canine. Those goggles? The way he effortlessly sports a harness? They way he… wait, is he about to jump out of a plane?!

Wow. Riley, a 4-year-old Dachshund took the plunge down to Earth with his owner Nathan Batiste, 38, who has made more than 400 jumps in his life. This one, however, was the best dive he’s ever experienced, he said.

Riley looks cool and calm as he makes his way to the ground (where, hopefully, there was a treat waiting). He tucks his paws pleasantly, acting as if the jump was just an intense session of sticking his head out the car window. This pup had the time of his life.

Check out how Riley masters the 13,000-foot drop, and let us know if your dog could handle it in the comments.

This Adorable Moment Is Exactly Why Ariana Grande And Big Sean Are The Perfect Couple

by 25 mins ago

Though they’re still playing coy as a new couple, Ariana Grande and Big Sean are clearly the perfect match for each other.

Want to know how we know that? Well, because they both share the love for the “best month of the year”: October.

The new couple was so pumped that the calendar read October 1 that they both tweeted their mutual enthusiasm over the yearly occurrence. Ariana, who’s already been rocking her Halloween cat ears for several months, started things off with wishing everyone a happy first day to her favorite month and followed that up a little later with a simple, “hell yeah October.”

Big Sean, who was seen holding hands with Ariana after leaving an “Saturday Night Live” after-party, got in on the harvest month as well, tweeting “I f—in love October man.” Clearly, Ariana agreed, since she retweeted her rumored boyfriend. See? Written in the stars!

So what we’ve concluded from this is that because they share the love of pumpkins, hayrides and Halloween (and possibly pumpkin spice lattes, because you can’t love October and not love those), they’re probably going to live happily ever after.

Christina Garibaldi has been an on-camera reporter for MTV News since 2011. When not interviewing or writing about her favorite stars, she keeps herself busy with baby animal videos and boy bands.

Carly Aquilino’s Biggest Fan Had Her Face Shaved Into His Hairy Back

by 4 mins ago

What happened to the simple days of sending your favorite celeb some glitter-coated fan mail?

Girl Code“‘s outspoken redhead pinkhead, Carly Aquilino, who had audiences cackling as per usual on the show’s Season 3 premiere last night, told Glamour that she absolutely loves interacting with fans over Twitter, but that one particularly hairy social media exchange may have put her off Internet-convos.

“[A guy] tweeted at me, ‘If you retweet me, I’m going to shave your face into my back,’” she began. “And I retweeted like, ‘LOL.’ Within a half hour, it was my face on his back. I wish I had a screenshot of this. His girlfriend shaved my face into his hairy man-back and put red where my hair was. It wasn’t even an artistic thing — it was a smiley face with red hair.” And suddenly, Happy Gilmore signing a woman’s cleavage seems completely tame.

Still, for the most part, Carly says she loves chatting with her followers, who ask her questions on everything from hair maintenance tips to Tinder-etiquette. But there’s one topic she’s always a little wary of diving into.

“The teenage groups just want to talk about their boyfriends because it’s new to them — ‘How do I deal if I just got my heart broken?’ Those are things, unfortunately, that just everybody has to live through. That’s the most devastating thing in your world, so I always feel for them.”

Zoe Saldana Announces She’s Having Twins In The Most Adorable Way

by 17 mins ago

Zoe Saldana is having twins, you guys! And that news is made cuter by the way she announced it on Wednesday night.

Even though friend Britney Spears already spilled the beans, the “Guardians of the Galaxy” actress cleverly snuck the confirmation into an E! News interview at the opening of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ Hollywood Costume exhibit in L.A. When asked if she was going to dress up for Halloween, Saldana slyly responded:

“I might. I might need three costumes,” she said, looking down at her belly. “I might have to make some adjustments, but it would be nice.”

Salanda, who is approximately five months pregnant, walked the red carpet last night with husband Marco Perego. News broke that the couple were expecting in July. This will be the first child — ahem, I mean children — for the two, who secretly married in July 2013.

As MTV News reported earlier this week a multi-phase competition is in the works to find five aspiring female filmmakers, who will be selected by a panel of powerful women — among them Stephenie Meyer, Kristen Stewart, Kate Winslet, Octavia Spencer, and “Twilight” director Catherine Hardwicke — to direct short films featuring characters from the “Twilight” universe. And while no details have been released yet about exactly when and how the contest will kick off, it’s never too early to start studying up on your “Twilight” moviemaking technique, with this list of essential tips.

One day, Mila’s child will find it sweet that she can watch the early evolution of her parents’ relationship. But until then, it’ll make for great leverage: “Clean up your room, or you’ll be watching me and your dad make out on a continuous loop for the next 72 hours!”

Check Out Taylor Swift’s ‘Incredible’ New Fragrance

by 30 mins ago

Another year, another Taylor Swift fragrance! After her princess-themed Wonderstruck and Wonderstruck Enchanted scents and, most recently, her boho-inspired Taylor by Taylor Swift perfume, our girl is back with a very different fragrance for 2014.

Taylor Swift Incredible ThingsTwitter

The scent, called Incredible Things, mixes vanilla, musk, wild passion flowers, and grapefruit in an opaque bottle complete with a watercolor painting of T-Swift’s portrait and a number 13 on the cap, according to Lucky. The campaign also features Taylor in barely-there makeup and paint-stained hands, which we’re totally feeling. So minimal. So artsy. So incredible.

When we see the full package, it obvious Taylor went for a more DIY approach this time around (perhaps as a nod to her 1989 album?), which is a huge step away from her typically-ornate bottles and decked-out campaign images. The scent will hit Kohl’s nationwide and online this month, so y’all better start saving up ASAP!

One Direction’s Four Album Will Be One Big ‘Musical Rainbow’

by 29 mins ago

Between “Steal My Girl” and “Fireproof,” I have to say that I’m so ready for One Direction‘s Four album to drop. Only problem is, there’s still 47 days to go, but who’s counting?

But I do come with some good news, Directioners, because I caught up with Julian Bunetta — you know, the guy who co-wrote “Steal My Girl,” “Best Song Ever” and lots more — and he told me to expect the unexpected from the band’s fourth LP.

“There is probably a whole bunch of stuff in between them ['Steal My Girl' and 'Fireproof'] that sound nothing like each other,” Bunetta said. “So it’s just one big One Direction musical rainbow; one song is green and one song is blue, one song is red.”

And the reason for the array of sounds? Well, that’s because Liam, Louis, Harry, Zayn and Niall were all very hands on in the creative process.

“I think most of them were written with the band, either with Louis and Liam or with Harry, and there is a couple of songs that the whole band wrote on at different stages,” the songwriter revealed. “So there’s five different individuals in this group and they all have five different tastes, so naturally I think the music is going to be pretty diverse because of that.”

Bunetta, who said Four features the “best work” he’s ever done, also revealed the reason that guys wanted to write about “girls” “love” and “having a ...

Lady Gaga Hates Pants: Here Are 21 Photos That Prove It

by 32 mins ago

Lady Gaga likes a lot of things in this slowly dying world of ours: jazz, Tony Bennett, her puppy, applause — the list goes on. One thing that she does not like, however, is pants. The lady hates the very concept of sheathing her legs in two tubes of fabric, you know?

We’ve compiled an extensive — although far from comprehensive — list of 21 times Gaga has been sans trousers of late. Bask in her pantsless glory below.

1.) Who needs pants when you have an awesome biker jacket?

2.) Just chilling with some kids — sans trousers (but definitely not sans rad boots).

3.) Who needs pants when you’re sporting this much metal? Not Gaga!

4.) Does this netted thing count as pants? We’re going to say no.

5.) Rad tail! No pants, though.

6.) Gaga is basically ‘cheek to cheek’ with this piano…

7.) It’s cool, Aphrodite didn’t wear slacks, either.

8.) I mean, she came from the oceans and whatnot.

9.) Dance-off, pants off!

10.) ‘Where did my pants go?’

11.) ‘I shall distract them from my lack of trou with this glorious keyboard.’

Watch Flying Lotus’ Trippy Video For Kendrick Lamar-Featured ‘Never Catch Me’

by 31 mins ago

Flying Lotus collaborated with Kendrick Lamar on his the trippy single “Never Catch Me” from his upcoming album You’re Dead!, and for the new visuals, he didn’t even need a K. Dot cameo to make this a memorable one.

The video, directed by Hiro Murai, begins in a funeral home, where we watch a deceased boy and girl rise out of their coffins and dance their way outside. The best part is that it looks like they’re actually dancing along with the tempo of Kendrick’s frenetic rapping.

Last week, we got the first taste of Kendrick’s new album with the release of “i,” and his producer Rahki told us that we can expect the entire project to be “incredible.”

“What Kendrick is doing, and what he’s about to do — he’s an artist, he has a vision in mind. There’s nothing like that record on radio right now,” he said.
