When Jay Z raps people listen, and when it came to Hov’s verse on DJ Khaled’s “They Don’t Love You No More,” Major League Lacrosse heard Jigga loud and clear.

In a line where we’re questioning if Jay Z subliminally tapped Drake, it’s clear that he took a swipe at lacrosse players everywhere. “Haters wanna ball, let me tighten up my drawstring/ Wrong sport, boy, you know you soft as a lacrosse team,” Jigga spit over the Mike Zombie-produced track.

Now, MLL has a message of their own for the superstar rapper. “Lacrosse is often called the fastest sport on two feet. Players are on the field dodging and shooting balls at over 100 miles per hour,” a MLL spokesperson told MTV News in a written statement issued on Tuesday (April 29).

“With that said we don’t think Jay-Z knows what he’s talking about when he calls Lacrosse ‘soft’ I can guarantee you it is anything but a ‘soft’ sport,” the statement continued.

To top it all off, MLL issues a challenge to the battle-tested MC. “Mr. Carter would not last one minute on a lacrosse field during a match and he is more than welcome to come to any of our games and try,” the statement read in closing.

Quite frankly, neither would we.

It’s a universally accepted truth that everyone just loves Paul Rudd. We can accept that, right? The same goes for Amy Poehler. The duo are basically comedy and America and the universe’s Mr. and Miss Congeniality. They’re like the student body president who’s good looking and really popular and funny, but you can’t resent them for having everything seemingly coming so effortlessly to them because they’re just so darn nice, right? Right.

So the news that the duo are co-starring in a new satirical take on the romantic comedy genre, “They Came Together,” was more than welcome. Oh, and David Wain, who worked with Poehler and Rudd in the amazing “Wet Hot American Summer” is directing? All the effing better for us to bask in the greatness of the trailer for “They Came Together.”

Wait, Ed Helms, Cobie Smulders, Martin Starr, Michael Shannon, Ellie Kemper, Bill Hader and Max Greenfield are all in this too? And even more of our favorite comedic actors? Adam Scott, who let you in here?

No, shut up, you’re crying tears of anticipatory joy and setting the countdown app on your phone for June 27. You are.

Just remember one thing: It’s not their fault they’re so perfect. It’s just not.

“They Came Together” hits theaters and on-demand June 27.

Spider-Man and the X-Men often team up in the comics, and if “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” director Marc Webb had anything to say about it, they would do it on the big screen too.

“Certainly there’s precedent in the comics for a crossover. I would love to see it as a fan,” Webb said, though he quickly added, “I’m not in control of that.”

Though Webb would love to see Spidey and Wolverine in the same room together, he also talked about the virtue of Spider-Man as a standalone character.

“A big part of Spider-Man is him being alone and having to face the problems in the world and his own problems alone,” said Webb. “That’s part of what makes Spider-Man so great.”

Recently, there’s been more and more speculation of the webslinger meeting the mutants, especially since “X-Men” producer Simon Kinberg said that such a crossover would be “the dream.”

As Webb said, he’s not in control, and it probably won’t happen any time soon, but he “would be certainly curious about it.”

For fans everywhere, that’s the understatement of the century.

“In everyone’s mind’s eye, you think ‘Oh, Spider-Man. He’s red and blue.’ “

Deborah Lynn Scott, the costume designer on “The Amazing Spider-Man 2,” like the hundreds of artists who have drawn the character for Marvel Comics, knows very well that Peter Parker’s superhero outfit isn’t simply, “red and blue.” Spider-Man’s costume is deceptively intricate and has caused headaches for pencillers, inkers and costume designers since 1962.

In fact, the webbed pattern on the red portions became such a nuisance to artists in the early ’80s that Marvel introduced an entirely new, black costume as a way to avoid the design detail; a decision the company reversed four years later after outcries from the fans.

For “The Amazing Spider-Man 2,” however, Scott would not only have to work within the parameters of the red and blue look, but she also needed to differentiate it from the previous drastic redesign in the first “Amazing Spider-Man” — a costume which was intended to look like something Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) could make himself. For the sequel, director Marc Webb handed Scott a different task.

“We wanted the most Spider-Man-y Spider-Man,” Scott said. And that’s what they did.

Sony, to avoid being scooped by the paparazzi during location shooting in New York, released an early first look at the costume before filming began, and reaction from hardcore fans was ecstatic. Essentially everything about Peter’s revamped costume had comic books readers drooling.

The costume’s success was the result of painstaking efforts ...

Big K.R.I.T. hit the 500,000 follower mark on Twitter Monday night, prompting him to debut “Mt. Olympus,” the first single from his upcoming sophomore album Cadillactica.

Just when it seemed like we’d heard the very last word about Kendrick Lamar’s “Control” verse, K.R.I.T slipped in one more line on his ferocious, self-produced track.

“That ‘Control’ beat is like an ugly bitch that everybody done f—ed raw/ Maybe you hit it,” he spits. Guess K.R.I.T never had any intentions of taking a turn on that beat. Listen to “Olympus” below.

It’s that time again! Time to feel nostalgic while simultaneously kind of turned on by an otherwise innocent childhood memory. The memory in question? The “DuckTales” theme song.

When I was a kid, the only sort of need I gleaned from watching the exploits of wealthy flapper Scrooge McDuck was the need to swim in a giant vat of gold coins, as McDuck does on the reg. After listening to Postmodern Jukebox’s slow jam cover of the theme song, however, my needs were a bit less clear.

Someone explain my feelings to me, please, because all I know right now is that life is, indeed, like a hurricane. A hurricane in my heart.

Emma Stone Continues To Win At Life
The “Amazing Spider-Man 2” star stopped by “The Tonight Show” to bring down Jimmy Fallon in a lip sync battle. Fallon opened with a lackluster rendition of Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy” before Stone took on the tongue-twisting “Hook” by Blues Brothers. Fallon followed up with 80′s hit “Mr. Roboto” but Stone locked in the win with a raging rendition of DJ Khaled’s “All I Do Is Win.”

Emma Stone is the official lip-synching champion of the world, and the rest of us — including Jimmy Fallon — should accept defeat, pack up our lips, and just go home to Loserville where we belong.

The actress appeared last night on “The Tonight Show” to herald the release of “The Amazing Spider-Man 2,” and was offered a unique challenge by host Jimmy Fallon: to meet him onstage for a Lip Synch Battle to end ‘em all. Each competitor had two chances to prove his or her lip-synching supremacy, with Jimmy kicking off the contest with an energetic rendition of Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy.”

Emma, looking intimidated but game, volleyed back with Blues Traveler’s “Hook,” and crushed it as soon as she hit the first lyric (“Suck it in, suck it in, suck it in. If you’re Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn!”) of the song’s rapid-fire bridge.

Jimmy then returned to the stage with “Mr. Roboto,” but even he seemed to suspect that he was outmatched — and was proved right in the final round. Emma opted for DJ Khaled’s “All I Do Is Win,” and that was, indeed, all she did. This woman’s lip-synching skills are crazy good. So good that we’re not even totally sure that this wasn’t a performance by Ludacris wearing an Emma Stone suit. So good that it’s starting to look mighty suspicious that Emma Stone and Ludacris have never been photographed together, if you know what we’re saying.

You can see Ludacris in a lady costume Emma in “The Amazing Spider-Man 2,” in theaters ...

There’s absolutely no limit on Jay Z’s creative potential when it comes to throwing subliminal shots at Drake. The two rappers have been lobbing back and forth at each other on their last couple of releases, and it sure seems like Hov took another shot at Drizzy on DJ Khaled’s new single, “They Dont’ Love You No More.” Using “lacrosse” as the dagger, nonetheless.

“Haters wanna ball, let me tighten up my draw string/ Wrong sport, boy, you know you’re as soft as a Lacrosse team,” Hov spits over the Mike Zombie beat.

Draft last took shots on his “Draft Day” freestyle, so Hov took the opportunity to fire back with another sports reference, and particularly a sport that’s pretty popular in Canada. Oh, and it must sting a little bit extra since Mike Zombie, who produced Drake’s smash “Started From the Bottom,” is also a part of the YMCMB rapper’s OVO Sound crew.

The Twitter reactions to Hov’s jab might’ve been even more entertaining than the line itself. Apparently those who’ve actually played lacrosse don’t think it’s such a “soft” sport after all.
