In less than 24 hours, the VMA red carpet will officially open, which means tons of killer ensembles are about to touch down in Inglewood, CA. We were lucky enough to talk to one of our most highly anticipated attendees—Jessie J—about what she’ll be wearing upon arrival.

It sounds like a vintage Jean Paul Gaultier ensemble she bought two years ago (!!!) might be in the cards, but she definitely knows one thing for sure—her performance outfit will show a lot (see: all) of her lower half. #legsfordays Peep the video above to get the full scoop on her ensemble, and tune in tomorrow night to see what happens!

Can we all take a “Deep Breath” of relief now that Peter Capaldi’s first “Doctor Who” adventure is in the bank? Can we all agree that his first full episode with Clara (Jenna Coleman) was equal parts sweet, hilarious, meditative, and awesome-sauce? Can we dig in to the episode’s biggest moments?

The New Doctor Emerges From His TARDIS

BBC

We learned pretttty much right away that Peter Capaldi’s Twelfth Doctor is going to be a delightful departure from Matt Smith’s foppish, silly Eleven — but more on personality traits in a sec. Let’s talk about the snap judgments that came to mind once Twelve first exited his TARDIS. (Spit up by a giant dinosaur, of course.)

First and foremost, he’s Scottish! (“I blame the English!”). Basically, get ready to maaaaybe have some United Kingdom jokes fly over your head if you live in the US, because Capaldi has officially become the first Doctor to use his native Scottish accent on the show. (Can you imagine David Tennant’s Ten with his Tennant’s real voice? Woah.)

Second, it’s important to note that Twelve had almost as hard a time accepting his new old face as Clara did. That later bit where he terrorized the homeless man was hilarious — and hinted at great things to come regarding Capaldi’s ability to nail physical humor — but it also let us know that the transition from outwardly young man to outwardly older man won’t necessarily be a piece of cake for the Doctor, especially ...

There were plenty of shocks and surprising twists on display during Peter Capaldi’s debut as The Doctor on “Doctor Who,” but none bigger than the jaw dropping return of… Well, spoilers, sweetie.

Massive, massive “Doctor Who” spoilers past this point.

Yes, the previous Doctor, played by Matt Smith, returned for one last hurrah after “dying” at the end of “The Time Of The Doctor” this past Christmas. In the emotional scene, Clara Oswald (Jenna Coleman) is still not totally convinced that the new Doctor, played by Capaldi, is the same person inside as “her” Doctor, played by Smith.

And then she gets a phone call on her cell from Smith’s Eleven, as he’s dying during the Siege of Trenzalore. He tells her that he’s the same man inside, and to trust Capaldi as if he’s Smith. Which he, of course, still is, despite the outside (and a bit of the insides) looking different.

But Smith has been wrapped on “Doctor Who” since the filming of “Time Of The Doctor” back in September, 2013. So how did he end up making such a substantial cameo nearly a year later?

Turns out, the BBC has been sitting on that footage for a good long while, as we found out when we asked Executive Producer Steven Moffat about the scene at the blue carpet premiere of “Deep Breath” in New York.

Keeping things vague for any spoiler-phobes in the area, we asked Moffat how they pulled off the secret cameo.

“I wrote that sequence first, and ...

Well, I guess that’s the end of Ashton Irwin as we knew him. The 5 Seconds of Summer drummer is now a shrimp, according the hilarious Vines they made after their VMA rehearsal on Saturday (August 23).

We hung out with the pop punk band in a dressing room backstage (possibly Rita Ora’s… hey, Rita) and had tons of fun talking about their performance and competing against Demi Lovato for Best Lyric Video.

The 5SOSFam is going neck-and-neck with Lovatics in the socially voted category, and the race is too close to call. But the dudes know how to get their fans voting: llama hands. Who can resist a llama hand telling you to #Vote5SOS?

When it comes to their performance tomorrow, we don’t know what to expect. But if the guys were to explain it in emojis, it would look a little bit like this.

A.K.A., this:

Here’s to hoping 5 Seconds of Summer will transform back to human form before tomorrow’s show, where they are also up for the title of MTV Artist to Watch. They’re nominated with Fifth Harmony, Schoolboy Q, Sam Smith and Charli XCX.
