Robin Thicke has made his feelings abundantly clear from the stage: He wants Paula Patton back. Like, now.

But up until recently, his estranged wife has kept quiet about her feelings after the former high-school sweethearts’ break-up earlier this year. In a new Vanity Fair profile, though, Patton breaks her silence and (kind of) talks about what might be next for the couple.

“We’ve known each other since we were teenagers,” she told the magazine. “All I can tell you is there’s a deep love there — always was, and always will be.” The actress, who is busy filming “Warcraft” in Vancouver with Dominic Cooper and Travis Fimmel also opened up about the former couple’s meet-cute story.

According to Patton, 38, they met at a Hollywood 18-and-under club when she was 15 and Thicke was 14, and before they had their first kiss, Robin serenaded her with Jodeci’s “Forever My Lady” in his dad Alan’s living room. Awww. Who wouldn’t go for that move?

“He wasn’t my first kiss,” Patton said. “But he was my first lots of other things.” The couple, who have a 3-year-old son together, Julian Fuego, announced that they were separating in February.

First, the Black Keys took us to church in the holler-if-you-hear-me video for “Fever.”

Is it just me, or were you all expecting Lana Del Rey’s upcoming Ultraviolence to reference Anthony Burgess’ “A Clockwork Orange” — since, you know, the term comes from that book? The track list, which dropped Thursday (May 8), however, mentions nary an Alex nor a droog.

So far we’ve only heard one track from the record — at least officially — the moody “West Coast,” for which Del Rey dropped a dreamy black and white video Wednesday.

Judging by the track list, she’ll also be hitting up the East Coast; one of the tracks is called “Brooklyn Baby.”

I’m going by the titles here, but it looks like the record will also be playing with some of the musician’s tried and true themes: money and its vices, sad-eyed lost Lolita girls, and, of course, an aesthetic kind of violence.

Check out the track list for the Dan Auerbach-produced record below:

1. “Cruel World”
2. “Ultraviolence”
3. “Shades Of Cool”
4. “Brooklyn Baby”
5. “West Coast”
6. “Sad Girl”
7. “Pretty When You Cry”
8. “Money Power Glory”
9. “Fucked My Way Up To The Top”
10. “Old Money”
11. “The Other Woman”
12. “Black Beauty” *
13. “Guns And Roses” *
14. “Florida Kilos” *

It doesn’t hit theaters until October 10, but there’s no reason we can’t start a “Bad Day” early.

That’s right, the first look at “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day” is here. Much like the classic children’s book of the same name, written by Judith Viorst, the movie’s events center around a kid named Alexander (Ed Oxenbould), who is basically a bummer magnet.

After he has a not-great day and wishes his family understood his woes (updated to include baby’s first doctored photo/texting scandal), his family (Steve Carell, Jennifer Garner and more) also feels the pain. Bella Thorne plays Alexander’s older brother’s girlfriend, and according to the trailer, has an ideal posterior.

Crocodiles, car accidents and a baby drawing all over its face lurk within the trailer, above.

Tuesday night, while shooting the video for his song “Walk Thru,” Rich Homie Quan suffered two seizures and hit his head. As a result, he was taken to the hospital for treatment.

For the first time since the incident, Quan is speaking out. In a statement on Thursday (May 8), he stressed that it was neither drugs nor lean, but rather exhaustion and heat, that contributed his medical emergency.

“I just want to thank my fans and everyone who has called concerned about me,” the Atlanta rapper said in the statement. “I want to clear up two things, after being in 3 states in 3 days, up early having to shoot my video for ‘Walk Thru’ and even sleeping in between scenes on top of filming in this humid Atlanta heat, I fainted and hit my head. It’s no secret that I do turn up, I don’t deny that but I’m not addicted to anything including drugs nor was I leaning at the shoot. The media is gonna put fake stories out there but I just want to let my fans know that I’m good and recovering. The second thing is, I promised I will never stop going in and I mean that.”

The rapper’s own explanation contradicts a recent report by TMZ — which he seems to subliminally reference — which alleges that the rapper was drinking lean on the day of his seizures.

Quan isn’t the only one saying it was heat and exhausation, rather than drugs, that caused ...

Dear Katy Perry: You are probably not feeling as down as you were last week, when you posted that amazing video of hamsters munching on burritos to brighten your day (and ours!).

You have that Prismatic Tour and those questionable emojis and whatnot, so you’re probably feeling pretty rad.

Still, sadness lurks in all of our hearts — so, as a preemptive action, I give you this glory of glories: a video of a tiny hamster eating a tiny slice of pizza!

Aw, he eats ‘za the same way we all do — with unrestrained joy and boundness relish!

You’re welcome, Katy. You’re welcome.

Jennifer Lawrence, whom you might know from her work in “The Hunger Games” franchise, the “X-Men” movies, “Silver Linings Playbook,” a whole roster of other films or the heart-shaped magazine cutout you have taped to the inside of your locker (don’t deny it), is profiled in the newest issue of Marie Claire magazine.

Much like any time the Oscar winner opens her mouth in the presence of a recording device, there were some truly notable quotables. Lawrence opened up about her relationship with “X-Men” co-star Nicholas Hoult, her health, her religious upbringing and more. Most memorable, however, was her admitting to having an internal monologue advising herself, “You don’t want to constantly be a GIF.”

We know what she means, but, with all apologies to Lawrence, she’s just super GIFfable. It’s a blessing and a curse, JLaw. So, of course, we couldn’t resist giffing our favorite quotes from the article. We can’t help it if she has a serious case of rubberface, and we’re super into it.

Advice to herself, Part 1: “‘You need to calm the f–k down.’”

Advice to herself, Part 2: “‘You don’t want to constantly be a GIF.’”

On boyfriend Nicholas Hoult: “Looks can go pretty far. Nobody can deny a beautiful face. Fortunately, I have one. Oh, no! I mean my boyfriend! I didn’t mean my face! Oh, my God! I meant I’m with somebody who has a beautiful face.”

On public opinion: “Honestly, I’m just doing my best. But if ...

What exactly is going on with Rihanna’s Instagram account? Over the past few days her profile has continued to vanish, then pop up again, leaving fans a little confused. A rep at Instagram confirmed that they did, in fact, temporarily delete the account, but it has since been reinstated on their end.

“On Monday we briefly disabled the account by mistake and restored it quickly,” a rep told MTV News. “But I can confirm that we have not deleted the account subsequently.”

What gives, then? Rihanna has been having so much fun on Instagram over the past few months, it seems strange that she’d suddenly decide to disable the account. One guess was that it might’ve had something to do with the topless Liu magazine photo she posted and subsequently removed, but Instagram made no comment on that.

In the meantime, while we wait for Badgalriri to join us again, there are a few other artist accounts you can hit for some semi-explicit content — just don’t expect to see any nipples.

There’s Nicki Minaj…

Teyana Taylor…

Jhene Aiko…

If “Thriller” gave you the chills, wait til you get a shot of Michael Jackson’s “Blue Gangsta.” The song, which is available exclusively now at michaeljackson.mtv.com will appear on the upcoming posthumous King of Pop album, Xscape, and it is a classic slice of cinematic MJ pop magic.

Opening with a movie score-like wash of strings and the urgent refrain, “What cha gonna do/You ain’t the friend of mine/Look what you put me through/Now that I’m the blue gangsta,” the Timbaland-produced tune features an spare, skittering beat and Jackson singing over the eerie multi-tracked chorus.

Like the other eight songs on the Xscape (due out May 13), “Blue Gangsta” was put together based on full vocal takes recorded by the late singer between 1983 and 1999. Unlike the first released track — the disco-leaning “Love Never Felt So Good” — the darker “Gangsta” has an icier, more modern sound.

Zac Ef-Bomb?

Justin Timberlake Reveals Michael Jackson Secret
Justin Timberlake is featured on “Love Never Felt So Good,” the first single from Michael Jackson’s posthumous album, Xscape. However, this could have been the second time Timberlake and Jackson collaborated. *NSYNC’s hit, “Gone,” was originally written for the King of Pop, but his camp turned it down. The former Mouseketeer revealed that after it hit the radio Jackson called him and wanted to do it as a duet, minus the other boys.
