Hip-hop has always had an interesting tug-of-war with the Grammys, and Sunday's ceremony will be no exception.

In one corner you have Macklemore & Ryan Lewis with all of their platinum plaques, #1 Billboard singles and independent pop success. In the other you have Kendrick Lamar, who dazzled critics with his coming-of-age major-label debut good kid, m.A.A.d city — a masterful album that pushed more than a million copies while at the same time satisfying hip-hop purists. Both acts received seven nominations and will face off against each other in four categories: Album of the Year, Best New Artist, Best Rap Album and Best Rap Performance.

Now debates are raging about who will have the biggest night. Will it be Kendrick, who fits neatly into the traditional hip-hop mold or the pop-drenched Macklemore & Ryan Lewis?

"The reality of it is that Macklemore is going to win over Kendrick, he has more record sales, he's more commercial and that's just the reality of it," Joey Bada$$ told MTV News of his prediction, before doubling back and giving us his personal preference. "That's Grammys. That's what you got, but I personally feel like Kendrick deserves that more."

Mack Wilds, whose New York: A Love Story LP is up for Best Urban Contemporary Album, also picks Lamar to win, though his opinion is slighted. "I'm biased. I know Kendrick. Kendrick is my boy and I know how much he put into this album; not saying Macklemore didn't. Macklemore is another talented artist on the rise. But I just know everything Kendrick put into ...

Clive Davis has a few words for Justin Bieber.

The troubled pop star was arrested in the early hours of Thursday morning (January 23) in Miami and charged with DUI, resisting arrest and driving on an expired license. According to multiple reports, Bieber told officers that he'd had a few beers, smoked marijuana and taken a prescription anti-anxiety medicine in the hours before getting behind the wheel of his rented Lamborghini.

The situation struck a chord with music mogul Davis, who says he has never met Bieber nor does he have any association with Bieber, but did famously mentor the late Whitney Houston throughout the duration of her storied career.

"Sadly I've had to witness some great artists lose their life to the lethal power of drugs," he told MTV News. "As a principle, drugs are lethal. When you have talent that's affected millions of people already, it's just good to put it far away from you and never be involved with it."

Houston lost her own life to a drug-related incident, just hours before she was set to attend Davis' annual pre-Grammy party on February 11, 2012. The singer's cause of death was ruled to be accidental drowning and the effects of atherosclerotic heart disease and cocaine use.

Bieber's arrest was the latest in a slew of recent troubles. Just last week, police raided the singer's Calabasas home after he was accused of egging his neighbor's home — a felony crime resulting in more than $20,000 worth of damage to the property. Bieber was said to have been cooperative during the ...

As moves into the final four of MTV's Movie Brawl, star Jason Dohring has some good news for all you Marshmallows.

Speaking with MTV News, the actor behind lovable bad boy Logan Echolls promised that the upcoming film "will have everything [the fans] have wanted, and still leave them wanting a little bit more."

Warner Bros. unveiled the first trailer for the "Veronica Mars" movie to universal fan acclaim earlier this month, revealing new plot details for the first time. Among the things we learned: Veronica (Kristen Bell) has left her sleuthing days behind, but not her boyfriend Piz (Chris Lowell). That is, until Logan needs her help cracking the case of who killed his pop star girlfriend.

The project famously came to light last year through a massively successful crowd sourcing campaign, with fans kicking in as much as $10,000 for a small speaking role in the movie. After two days, fans had donated over $5.7 million for the project.

Asked whether he finds it humbling to have been a part of such a huge cultural phenomenon, Dohring was at a loss for words.

"I can't even believe [it]," he said. "How can you have this tiny little show that was critically acclaimed, but it just felt like we were all down in San Diego shooting a student film."

He was particularly blown away by the Marshmallows' unbelievable attention to detail.

"I'd go on the forums after a show was over and I'd be like, This is getting canceled. This is the worst episode we've ever done, and people are like, ...

On Thursday morning (January 23), Beliebers woke up to the disheartening news that Justin Bieber had been arrested.

The pop star is now facing drag racing and DUI charges after he was apprehended by authorities in Miami Beach. Not surprisingly, fans flooded social media to share their reactions to Bieber's latest legal woes. The "Believe" singer reportedly admitted to police he'd been drinking beers, smoking marijuana and taking prescription anti-depressants before getting behind the wheel of a rented Lamborghini. Those actions left fans shocked, disappointed and confused, with one torn Belieber saying she wanted to hug him ... and slap him.

Bieber and a friend, aspiring pop singer Khalil Sharieff, were taken into custody after Miami police witnessed the duo drag racing in a residential area. Bieber subsequently failed a field sobriety test and it was concluded that he was driving under the influence of a controlled substance. He's now been released from jail.

Fans who typically stand by Bieber — through thick and thin — are having a hard time defending Bieber's actions this time around; many cited the fact that he not only endangered his life, but others' as well.

While @jessnort tweeted she wasn't "entirely shocked," she hoped it "wouldn't come to this."

However, there were bieber admirers that declared their loyalty not only for Justin but also his friend Lil Za, who shared a tribute to the pop star, spray-painting the words "Free Bizzle" in graffiti on a skateboard ramp. Za added the caption "not a game" to his post.

The Texas native ...

From Brad and Angelina, to K-Stew and R-Patz, to Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield, celebrity couples prove you're not the only one crushing on your hot co-worker (mine sits down the hall and to the right).

Add Dove Cameron and Ryan McCartan to that list. The pair met playing love interests on the Disney Channel series "Liv and Maddie" and, before they knew it, were calling each other boyfriend and girlfriend off-screen.

Dove Cameron Played It Safe On The Set Of 'Cloud 9.'

"It was one of those classic Hollywood stories where, you know, there was just a lot of natural chemistry and it took us maybe four or five months into the show to really realize that there was more there than just a little bit of a flirtation," Dove told MTV News. "He's definitely one of the best parts about my life. I love him."

And although there are roses — "You get to spend lots of time together" — and thorns — "When you don't spend time together it's especially obvious, you know, you miss each other a lot" — when it comes to workplace relationships, Dove said the pros generally outweigh the cons.

"I thought it was going to be a lot more difficult than it has been," she admitted. "First of all, we have a really supportive cast and crew and we, we've pretty much been able to transfer our relationship over seamlessly from friends and co-workers to a couple. And everybody has made it really lovely and easy for us."

The Sundance Film Festival is still going strong, but there are already some movies that have many critics talking and film distributors ponying up the big bucks for the rights.

The selections at this year's fest range from violent action thrillers to coming of age dramas and experimental films that take 12 years to make. Regardless of the genre, Sundance has again offered a ton of movies worth talking about and checking out.

Below we have a rundown of the movies that have people buzzing in Park City. You can also check out our interview with the casts of several of the films.

"Whiplash"
The Story: Andrew (Miles Teller) is a jazz drummer who becomes obsession with percussion perfection while enrolled in an intense music conservatory. Things only get more extreme when he joins the band led by one of the instructions there, J.K. Simmon's Terence Fletcher.
The Buzz: Both Teller and Simmons would raves on the opening night of the fest for their high-energy performances, with my calling the young star "the next big thing." Sony Pictures Classics snapped up the distribution rights a few days later, so it shouldn't be too long before you can check it out for yourself.

"Laggies"
The Story: Keira Knightley has her own case of arrested development in the new film from Lynn Shelton. The actress plays Megan, who runs away from a proposal to hang out with her new, 16-year-old friend, played by Chloe Grace Moretz.
The Buzz: Director Lynn Shelton is no stranger to Sundance, but "Laggies" is getting some of her best reviews ever from ...

Justin Bieber won't do hard time for his arrest early Thursday morning (January 23) in Miami Beach on suspicion of DUI and driving on an expired license
.

That's the good news. But the Ontario, Canada, native, who was also hit with charges of resisting arrest after failing to comply with the arresting officer's orders during the 4 a.m. traffic stop, is facing a number of sanctions in the incident.

At press time Bieber had been released on $2,500 bond and had not commented on the arrest.

Bieber Headed To The Big House?

"You're normally looking at six months of probation, a $250 fine, license suspension and enrollment in a DUI course," said Ft. Lauderdale-based DUI attorney Ken Padowitz, a former Florida homicide prosecutor who was speaking to MTV News about the state's DUI laws with no firsthand knowledge of the Bieber case.

Padowitz said the DUI, resisting arrest and suspended license charges are all misdemeanors which each carry a maximum penalty of up to a year in jail. "But in all likelihood he is not likely to get any jail time at all," he said.

A first DUI offense carries a maximum of six months behind bars and 50 hours of community service, with an automatic six months license suspension. If Bieber gets charged with drag racing, that too carries a maximum of six months in jail, a $500-$1,000 fine and a one-year license suspension.

Zero Tolerance

Florida has a zero-tolerance DUI law when it comes to underage drivers, which sets the legal blood alcohol limit at .02 for drivers under 21. That ...

B.J. Novak would like to introduce you to WABBOFOMO — or at least, that's the best acronym we can think of to describe the feelings stirred up by the trailer for his new book, "One More Thing."

Sufferers of the condition, known in full as Writing A Book Because Of FOMO, have been known to speak French, make up Sartre quotations and try to impress their hilarious pal Mindy Kaling in black-and-white short videos.

OK, let's unpack that a little: There are a few layers to all of this. Novak (you best know him as Ryan the Temp from "The Office") wrote a book of short stories. His publisher, Knopf, released a hilariously meta trailer for the book, starring Novak and Kaling as two pretentious French speakers.

French Novak is desperate to impress French Mindy, who's holding a copy of real-life Kaling's book, but with the title hilariously translated to "Is It Existentially Possible That the World Hangs Out In My Absence." How to impress a book-writing girl? Write a book of your own, of course!

If you think this all sounds a little meta and layered and comedy-nerdish, well, you're right. But we suggest giving the trailer a shot anyway. There's a "that's what she said" joke in there! In French! And it's totally worth it to watch all the way through for the twist ending. (Yes, a three-minute promotional video can have a twist ending. Trust.)

How else are you spending your time, anyway? Reading a book? Psh. As if.

"One More Thing: Stories and Other ...
