If there’s one thing we can take from the new poster for “Laggies,” the romantic comedy starring Keira Knightley, Chloe Grace Moretz and Sam Rockwell, it’s that the leads are all apt to mouth off.

A24

Get it? Because you can’t see any of their mouths on the poster. Har har.

Actually, despite the lack of mouthiness on the poster, we’re pretty sure the characters in this movie will be plenty sassy, considering Moretz plays a teen, while Knightley portrays a sort of arrested development pseudo-teen who is just trying to Figure It All Out. And, you know, sometimes Figuring It All Out involves buying an underage girl beer, making friends with her, and hooking up with her dad. Sometimes!

Check out the poster above, and watch the previously released trailer for the movie.

“Laggies” hits theaters October 24.

Further evidence that Lorde and I should be best friends emerged on Instagram this week in the form of a photo of the “coolest thing” the 17-year-old owns. The item in question? That would be David Live, David Bowie’s 1974 live album.

Bowie and Lorde have had their share of interactions over the past year — the iconic musician and Ella hung out with Tilda Swinton at New York’s Museum of Modern Art and The Thin White Duke later told the teen she was the future of music. (Sidenote: Still waiting for that letter, Bowie).

I think a collaboration is in order — both have been teasing new music of late. What do you say? You both have regal nicknames. Think about it… (Also, I can sort of play drums… hit me up.)

So, I hate to tell you this, Miley, but you’re kind of turning into a dog lady. About 75 percent of your photos on Instagram feature you kissing various and sundry pups — the other 25 percent are of Wayne Coyne, punk icons and your new pig, in varying percentages.

Everyone over at MTV News, however, is pretty smitten with your most recent dog snap, featuring this adorable one-eyed dog.

From whence does that dog come, Miley? You’ve tagged Wayne Coyne and his girlfriend in the caption. Does the pooch live with the Lips and Co.? Or did you all hit up an adoption center and go to town with the nuzzling?

Either way, we think you should own this pirate of a pup — if you don’t already. Floyd is nodding along with us in heaven, so make him (her?) yours…

While the pop culture world was busy mourning Robin Williams, another iconic Hollywood voice — albeit one from a much different era — was silenced on August 12. Lauren Bacall, known as much for her sultry good looks and marriage to Humphrey Bogart during Hollywood’s golden age as she was for her impressive body of work, died of a stroke on Tuesday. She was 89 years old.

89 years ain’t too shabby — for Bacall, it was long enough to garner dozens of films, a Broadway career, two Tonys, an honorary Academy Award, two marriages, three children, multiple grandchildren, and two autobiographies — but as Stephen Colbert said when his 92-year-old mother died, the good fortune of a long life “does not diminish, it only magnifies, the enormity of the room whose door has now quietly shut.”

Now, no one is blaming Hollywood or social media for focusing so much attention on Williams, because his premature death begs attention for a much larger issue, and his voice is one that brought joy to so many people who are still alive and kicking today.

But “Pretty Little Liars” actress Troian Bellisario hit the nail on the head with an Instagram post from last night, which perfectly encapsulated why so many people, especially women, were so affected by Bacall — because the 5-foot-8, deep-voiced actress introduced the movie world to a new kind of femininity that had not yet been ...

Even though it’s been less than a year since One Direction released Midnight Memories, the guys are hard at work on their upcoming fourth album.

Niall, Louis, Liam, Zayn and Harry sat down with Carson Daly on the “Today” show and revealed that the next album is taking them in a new direction…no pun intended.

“I think it’s going to be a little bit more edgy,” Niall said of the type of music they are recording. “But obviously we feel like we’ve got some really good songs and we are happy.”

And they should be happy with this group of songs, since they are the ones behind the music.

“We’ve all taken a hand in the writing this time,” Liam said. “And we’ve literally written almost every song.”

The guys didn’t reveal when we will hear new music, probably because they are currently traveling all over the U.S. for their Where We Are stadium tour. Just four years after becoming a boy band, 1D are performing in front of 50,000-plus crowds of Directioners each night, a figure that’s sometimes hard for them to wrap their heads around.

“We have moments, especially on this tour when you step out to these amazing stadiums and stuff, we end up spending the first 20 minutes just standing there looking at each other going ‘wow look where we are,’” Niall said. “It’s just unbelievable what’s happened.”

Liam continued, “I remember I sat watching the Super Bowl thinking, ‘How are we going to get on ...

Naya Rivera and her new husband, actor Ryan Dorsey, made their first official public appearance together since getting married in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico on July 19.

The reason for their outing? Justin Timberlake’s 20/20 Experience World Tour stop at Los Angeles’ Staples Center, where fellow “Glee” co-stars Lea Michele and Nolan Gerald Funk were also spotted in attendance. Needless to say, I’m sending the 33-year-old entertainer about a million “THANK YOU FOR THESE PHOTOS” cookie bouquets as we speak. But first, um, where does JT live?

Naya arrives in incredibly glamorous, swoopy-hat style.

Bad at filling out bios seeks same.

When you’re regularly confronted by werewolves, dark Japanese warlords and things that go bump in the night, something as small as a snake isn’t gonna knock you off balance.

“Teen Wolf” actress Holland Roden, who’s spending some time in Australia with co-star Ian Bohen and former Wolf-head Max Carver, found herself with a yards-long reptile wrapped around her neck at some point during her journey. And in an Instagram video that Carver posted this morning, Roden reacts the way any red-blooded American would: by taking the opportunity to recreate Britney Spears‘ iconic “I’m A Slave 4 U” performance from the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards.

“@hollandroden who said she’s afraid of snakes? #It’sBritneyBitch” Carver captioned the video, in which the woman who plays a banshee ditches her typical blood-curdling screams in favor of some dulcet tones. Throw in a few background dancers and a shredded green top and we’d think we were watching the real thing! Get ready for that Moonman, Holls.

Tell us how you think Roden’s rendition compares to the original, catch “Teen Wolf” Monday night at 10/9c and stay tuned for the 2014 MTV VMAs on August 24 at 9/8c!

Summer is winding down, which means that you’re probably scrambling to cram in all those cool activities you said you’d do back in April but never got around to. We know you’re in a rush, but don’t make any hasty plans that you’ll end up regretting. Specifically, you might want to avoid camping — or doing anything that will involve going in the woods.

We acknowledge that we’re being a little cautious here. Still, do you have any idea what’s out there? It’s terrifying. If you do decide to venture out into the untamed wild, at least know what you’re getting yourself into.

1. The woods are full of ticks that give you Lyme disease.

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Lyme disease is 10 times more common than previously reported. If left untreated, Lyme disease can cause facial palsy, arthritis, memory problems and “chronic neurological complaints months to years after infection.”

2. Snakes are everywhere!

Although there are very few deaths from snake bites in the U.S., the CDC estimates that there are 7,000 to 8,000 bites per year. To be fair, you may not even be safe out of the woods — especially if you live in this Austin apartment complex, which had its own snake pit.

Chiggers are the larval form ...

When Nicki Minaj shows up at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, August 24, it’ll be to deliver her performance at the big show. And, she’ll be treating us to new music from her upcoming third album, The Pinkprint. “Anaconda” live? Yes, please.

Nicki’s made a couple of appearances in the past — including her 2010 set at the VMAs pre-show, and a feature during Alicia Keys’ 2012 performance of “Girl on Fire” — and this time should be even more jaw-dropping, just the way we like it. After the release of “Anaconda” we’ve been biting our nails and waiting impatiently to hear (and see) what else she has in store, so we couldn’t help but react like this …

Oh, my — a Nicki Minaj performance you say?

Must. Keep. Wig. On.

Round of applause and a wiggle please — No one can’t hate on this one.

Oh guys, you shouldn’t have.

Nah, just kidding. It’s on now!

Don’t blink, ’cause you might miss some of this.

And a ‘lil bit of this.

Can’t even feel my face right now.

Okay, okay, I’m calm. It’s cool.
