How was your weekend? Did you have fun? Do anything exciting? Get the word “Stories” tattooed on the side of your head? (Lookin’ at you, Kelly Osbourne.) Well, Britney Spears managed to top all o’ you while staying bored the whole time.

Your faves.
When will they.

In an adorable new video Instagrammed on June 28 (caption: “How I spend my Saturdays….lol.”), the “Perfume” singer is seen walking two of her dogs through her neighborhood. “The boys are running. They’re ahead of me,” she narrates. “I’m bored. Bye!”

By the end of “Teen Wolf” Season 3, former Alpha Pack members Aiden and Ethan had proven their loyalty to Scott McCall. But it came at a price, and like archer Allison Argent, Aiden was struck down by an Oni. Understandably devastated, Ethan decided to leave Beacon Hills, and just as quickly as he and his brother stormed into town, they were gone for good.

Despite the tragic end, the twin brothers who played the werewolf warriors have fond memories of their time on the show. And in the MTV News clip below, Charlie and Max Carver — who now star on HBO’s “The Leftovers” — say they’d return to the supernatural universe if they could.

“We loved working on ‘Teen Wolf,’” Max says in the video, which was filmed on the red carpet of “The Leftovers” premiere. “I would go back, but I’m dead.”

“I’ve heard the best things about this season,” Charlie adds. “We love our fans. What an amazing place Beacon Hills is. I’m watching!”

Check out the interview, tell us if you miss Aiden and Ethan and be sure to catch an all new “Teen Wolf” tonight at 10/9c!

“Lab Rats” star Kelli Berglund has been playing Bree Davenport — a bionic teen with super speed, super dexterity, and the ability to mimic any sound — for three seasons now, which pretty much makes her a bona fide superhero in our book. So when Berglund stopped by MTV News headquarters in preparation for the June 30 return of her show on Disney XD, we just had to ask: has all of this small screen butt-kicking led to big screen aspirations?

“Black Widow in ["The Avengers"],” she said when asked what superhero she’d want to emulate. “I feel a connection with her because she’s the only girl, just like I am on my show, and she totally kicks butt. And her suit kind of looks like mine, so, I want to be Scarlett Johansson!”

Who doesn’t? But with her ability to do stunts, her familiarity with superpowers, and, most importantly, her experience in kicking and punching while wearing black spandex, Berglund has something the rest of us lack — experience.

“I totally see myself one day doing those big screen kind of movies,” she concluded. “Being the lead girl in an action film like [Johansson] is, that would honestly be a dream of mine.”

Whenever life gives you a bejeweled shower cap, grab your puppy and take naked selfies. That’s how the saying goes right, Miley Cyrus?

Early Monday morning (June 30), Miley shared a snap of her and new pup Emu Coyne Cyrus in the bathroom getting ready for a dip in the tub. Earlier in the day she made a shrine to Floyd, her husky that passed away earlier this year.

But this isn’t the first doggie shower selfie we’ve seen. A week ago, Lena Dunham got wet with her pooch, sharing the moment for all to see on her Instagram.

So if Lena’s done it, and Miley’s done it, you should do it too.

And if a trend is a trend, you’ll post a selfie on Instagram while you do it.

Creepy? No.

Ariana Grande is about to give you her everything, and she brought some friends along for the ride.

After teasing us with snippets of her song/brand-new music video for “Break Free,” the singer unveiled the track list for her highly anticipated second album, My Everything, due out August 25, and it turns out 7 of the 12 tracks are collaborations!

We already knew that Ariana teamed up with Iggy Azalea on the hit single “Problem,” Zedd on “Break Free” and longtime friend Big Sean on “Best Mistake,” a song she told Ryan Seacrest was her favorite track. But there are definitely some surprises as well.

The pop star is singing alongside some of the most buzzed-about artists of the moment, including Childish Gambino on the track “Break Your Heart Right Back,” A$AP Ferg on “Hands On Me,” DJ Cashemere Cat on “Be My Baby” and The Weeknd on “Love Me Harder.”

But the biggest shocker of them all had to be who Ariana worked with behind-the-scenes. The track “A Little Bit of Your Heart” was written by none other than One Direction’s Harry Styles, who penned it specifically for the powerhouse diva. Also contributing some songwriting creds were Ryan Tedder and Benny Blanco who wrote the song “We Try.”

Ariana will be on hand to talk all about her album and debut her new single “Break Free” during “Total Ariana Live” on MTV Wednesday, July 2 at 7 p.m.

On Monday morning (June 30), the Supreme Court came to a close decision in the highly disputed Burwell v. Hobby Lobby case, which took on the issue of whether closely held, private businesses were required to provide insurance coverage for birth control for their employees. Hobby Lobby, an arts and crafts retailer, argued that covering contraception would violate the company’s religious beliefs. And the justices supported that notion, narrowly ruling in favor of Hobby Lobby with a 5-4 vote.

The contraception mandate was originally part of the Affordable Care Act, and this means that businesses like Hobby Lobby are no longer required to provide insurance that includes birth control. The decision came about after 49 for-profit companies — notably the craft store and cabinet-makers Conestoga Wood Specialties — argued for an exemption attibuted to their religious values.

Pissed About The #HobbyLobby Decision? Here’s How You Can Take Action

While some of these companies objected to all forms of birth control, Hobby Lobby and Conestoga Wood specifically opposed IUDs and emergency contraception. Those methods, they argued, are similar to abortion in that they disrupt fertilization.

Why Does This Decision Matter?
In short, your job can now deny you and other employees birth control, which leads to real consequences for young women in the workplace. They’ll have to go elsewhere for their birth control, and the most effective contraceptives are ...

Chris Brown has this whole bad boy of R&B thing going on, and while most artists find it hard to recover from controversy, Jermaine Durpi feels Breezy’s drama will only make him a bigger star. How big of a star? Try Tupac Shakur big!

“He’s a star, though. I told people when he came out of jail, he’s going to be Tupac,” Jermaine told Hot 97 reporter and famed blogger Miss Info, when the two spoke at the radio room for the 2014 BET Awards.

“He’s an R&B singer and a singer’s music is supposed to go farther than rap. And, it stretches over different boundaries,” the multiplatinum producer continued, drawing a comparison between Chris and the late hip-hip icon. “To me, he’s going to be more famous than Tupac. I mean, he’s a star, and I can’t front on it.”

On Sunday night at the award show, Breezy made his first televised performance since being released from jail on June 2. First, Brown put all of his dance moves on full display with “Loyal,” and then later in show he took the stage with August Alsina and Trey Songz to perform the “I Luv This Sh–” remix.

To keep the momentum going, Brown released the finished version of his new track “New Flame” onto SoundCloud last night. The mid-tempo love groove features Rick Ross and Usher and is sure to build even more anticipation for Breezy’s upcoming X LP.

As obsessed as I am with Rihanna’s World Cup-trolling, I’m glad she put a pin in the live-tweets on June 30 to make a very special announcement: Her eighth studio album is on its way.

At least I’m assuming that’s the message that this tweet is meant to convey. It’s a photo of a mixing board, coupled with the hashtag “#R8″ — “R” as in “Rihanna” and “8″ as in “album No. 8″ I’m guessing? If she just wants to rate her new recording studio equipment, I’ll eat my hat.

And I hate eating hats.

The “What Now” singer’s kept pretty mum about the follow-up to 2012′s Unapologetic. There was that rumored “#barz” collaboration with Nicki Minaj that Rih might (or might not) have been teasing back in May, but otherwise the Navy’s pretty much been lost at sea. #PhlawlessWordplay

Until we get more concrete info though, it’s back to Rihanna’s Twitter handle, which blessed us with the 26-year-old singer’s “first selfie” on Sunday. Has she not aged since 2005? What kind of vampirism…

Actor Robert Downey, Jr.‘s son, 20-year-old Indio Downey, was reportedly arrested for drug possession Sunday (June 29) afternoon. The car the younger Downey was riding in was pulled over in West Hollywood, according to TMZ, when police allegedly saw Downey, in the passenger seat, smoking something out of a pipe. After a search, Downey was arrested for possession of cocaine.

The elder Downey famously did jail time for his own drug use and has spoken publicly about his own history of addiction. The father issued a heartbreaking statement of support for his son today.

“Unfortunately there’s a genetic component to addiction and Indio has likely inherited it,” he said in the statement. “Also, there is a lot of family support and understanding, and we’re all determined to rally behind him and help him become the man he’s capable of being.”

“We’re grateful to the Sheriff’s department for their intervention, and believe Indio can be another recovery success story instead of a cautionary tale.”

Last Sunday night (June 29), you might have seen something a little peculiar — a little old school — trending on your Twitter and/or Facebook feed, depending on your particular social media poison. That something was “True Blood,” the bloody, hyper-sexual relic of the late 2010′s that famously went off the rails somewhere in the middle of its run, but is still currently airing its final season — while everybody else has moved on to “Game of Thrones,” “Teen Wolf,” and the 37 other supernatural television shows on The CW.

But “True Blood”‘s remaining loyal fans were freaking out for good reason. After months (years?) of teasing and anticipation, the show aired a soft-core “slash” sex scene between two characters, Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsgard) and Jason Stackhouse (Ryan Kwanten), that didn’t exactly advance anything plot-wise, but still reminded everybody of what was so thrilling about the show in the first place — its willingness to depict relationships, sexual or otherwise, that defied norms.

“The real question was how we would approach it, because historically with the men-with-men sex dreams, they’ve just been sort of straight sex—no subtext—and we wanted to do something a little different with this one,” writer Kate Barnow told Entertainment Weekly.

Barnow is referring to the fact that “True Blood” has aired many “love” scenes of varying intensity between two male characters before, be they dreams or otherwise. This (thankfully) doesn’t seem like such a big deal nowadays, but back when the show premiered ...
