Did One Direction Adopt A Dog? This Cute ‘Midnight Memories’ Teaser Makes Us Think So

It's almost time for One Direction to make some "Midnight Memories." The boy band is slated to release their new music video for the track on Friday. And with only one day to go until its debut, the fivesome is giving fans some juicy final teases.

From the looks of it, the video will follow the five guys as they hit the town late at night. In one preview clip, which gives Directioners a look at a whopping 18 seconds of the visual, all five guys zoom down a city street on scooters making funny faces. While it's all going down, Louis Tomlinson sings lyrics about crowding into Addison Lees, a British minicab.

In two new gifs released on the band's official Tumblr, fans are treated to a scene where the guys are on a boat. Another GIF features — wait for it — Zayn Malik with an adorable dog. Cue the swooning.

Previous teases from the video have previewed several other set-ups, including what looks to be an epic food fight at a kebab restaurant and a scene where Louis gets flirty with an older woman. Lucky her!

The video was directed by Ben Winston, who previously worked with the guys on the videos for (which won a VMA) and also off their 2013 album Midnight Memories. 1D shot the clip in London back in December when they were spotted on the Tower Bridge in London.

‘Captain America’ Set Visit: Chris Evans Decodes ‘The Winter Soldier’

Heavy is the arm that wields the shield. Chris Evans knows this all too well, having starred as super-soldier Steve Roger in two Marvel Studios movies now: 2011's "Captain America: The First Avenger" and 2012's "Marvel's The Avengers." That number jumps to three with April's "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," directed by brothers Joe and Anthony Russo, and co-starring Marvel veterans Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, and more.

The "Captain America" sequel takes place in the modern day, a far cry from the 1940s-set "First Avenger." But some time has passed since the events of "The Avengers," giving Cap an opportunity to acclimate to his surroundings — something he's able to do thanks to his employment at the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division, better known as S.H.I.E.L.D.

"This movie, it's about him not just trying to acclimate to the modern world, but I think it's always been Cap's goal to do what's right and to be of service and to help where he can," Evans said during a conversation with reporters on the "Winter Soldier" set. "He likes to serve. He likes to take orders. He's like a hunting dog: he needs a task."

But with his nose buried so firmly in his work, Cap doesn't have much in the way of a social life — a fact that's pointed out to him by his partner, Black Widow, of all people. "Natasha kind of gives him a hard time about that," said Evans, "about getting into dating, just finding a social life, finding ...

Watch Zac Efron and Miles Teller’s Butt-Naked Convo In ‘That Awkward Moment’

Ladies, your prayers have been answered. Well, sort of.

In a new clip from the upcoming comedy "That Awkward Moment," Zac Efron and Miles Teller go butt-naked — literally — for your viewing pleasure.

Jason (Efron) calls Daniel (Teller) for advice — only discover that Daniel is in a bit of a pickle himself.

"I think I took too much Viagra. I just really got to take a leak," says Daniel, who claims his private parts resemble the "thing that stops the wheel" in "The Price Is Right." Jason, who seems to have plenty of experience in this arena, suggests a solution to Daniel's problem.

"Just get horizontal," Jason says, leading to a few great sight gags involving the two young stars and their innovative contortions around a toilet. Without giving too much more away, let's just say the scene very much lives up to the movie's title.

Teller, who has been acclaimed for his roles in indie darlings like "The Spectacular Now" and "Whiplash," keeps his shirt on but doesn't leave much to the imagination below that. The only thing obscuring any part of Efron is a well-placed toilet bowl.

Expect plenty more raunchy humor when "That Awkward Moment" hits theaters Friday.

#TBT Super Bowl Edition: The St. Louis Rams Are Terrible Rappers

The 1999 St. Louis Rams were known as "The Greatest Show on Turf," thanks in no small part to their high-scoring offense, which torched the opposition all season long, and led them to a win in Super Bowl XXXIV.

The "Greatest Show" moniker definitely did not apply to their freestyle skills, however, as MTV learned firsthand when we traveled to Atlanta — the site of that year's Super Bowl — and hung out with a few members of the Rams in the lead up to the Big Game, including tight end Roland Williams, who gave us a VIP tour of the field.

Of course, as Roland was showing us around (and letting our cameras that he had "all" of MTV's Spring Breaks on VHS,) he came across rookie wide receiver Torry Holt, who decided to rap on the spot, dropping elementary-level rhymes like "Sportin' Timbs and J's, all day, in your face/I tell you one thing: I can spray you with some mace."

And yes, we know freestyling isn't easy, but, frankly, the NFL hasn't seen rapping this awkward since the heyday of the Chicago Bears Shufflin' Crew (though at least they were nominated for a Grammy). To make up for his rhymes, Holt then attempts to establish street cred by name-checking DMX ... though he blows it one second later when he admits that he also listens to the Backstreet Boys.

Needless to say, it's a pretty amazing piece of video ... so, to get you ready for Sunday's game, we're unveiling it now, as part of our Throwback ...
