Austin Mahone Planning The Perfect First Date For His Little Mix Crush

by 10 mins ago

One (lucky) member of Little Mix seems to have Austin Mahone saying “MMM Yeah.”

The pop star and the girl group were on hand at London’s famed 02 Arena for the CapitalFM Summertime Ball on Monday, where Austin ran into a bit of a body lotion emergency while perfecting his moves for a performance.

“I actually needed lotion!” Austin told CapitalFM. “I was practicing my backflip and I kept falling on the grass and the grass was making me itch like crazy. And there was no girls around, but Little Mix were next door. Four girls — they have to have lotion. So they helped me out.”

But Austin may walked away with more than just lotion during that brief encounter because he seems to have developed a crush on Little Mix member Leigh-Anne Pinnock.

“Yeah I fancy her,” Austin admitted. “Does that mean I like her? Yeah, I like her.”

Unfortunately, for Austin, who was rumored to be dating Fifth Harmony member Camilla Cabello, Leigh-Anne already has a boyfriend. But if they ever do break up, Mahone already has the perfect plan for their first date.

“I don’t know any cool places but I’ll find a nice restaurant,” he said. “Maybe I’ll have a little thing set up in the London Eye and have them stop at the top and have a nice dinner.”

Ed Sheeran’s ‘Sing’ Video Was Inspired By Karaoke Night… With Psy

by 06/11/14

From puppets to strippers to Karaoke with Korean businessmen, Ed Sheeran’s “Sing” video was definitely a “really weird” night out.

But it turns out, it was actually based on a real-life experience Ed had with the “Hangover” man himself, Psy.

Immediately following the airing of his MTV documentary, “Nine Days and Nights,” Ed sat down for the “Live From MTV” after show, where he revealed that a night of debauchery with Psy inspired his video.

“Basically the “Sing” video is based on a night out I had with him, and loads of his Korean mates. I went out on this night out with Psy and everyone was wearing a Psy mask in a Korean restaurant and they were all Korean and all wearing a Psy mask and I didn’t know which one was Psy, I had no clue,” Ed said. “I eventually found out who Psy was and he’s just a monster when it comes to…there’s this Korean drink called Soju and so anyway I had this night out and that’s what inspired the ‘Sing’ video with all the dancing and karaoke and stuff.”

The two have been in touch since, in fact, Psy decided to put his own spin on Ed’s song.

“He just did a remix for ‘Sing,’ and it’s sick, and it’s the coolest thing I’ve ever heard,” Ed said before saying that he isn’t too sure when or if the world will hear it. “Just before he came in here he texted me being like ‘question ...

Ed Sheeran And Pharrell’s Bromance Is Strong In This ‘Nine Days And Nights’ Clip

by 06/09/14

It seems like there’s a bit of a bromance going on between Ed Sheeran and Pharrell.

The two teamed up to create Ed’s lead single “Sing,” off his upcoming album, Multiply, and during the MTV documentary “Nine Days and Nights of Ed Sheeran,” we see the two singing each other’s praises.

In a clip released on Monday (June 9) from the doc, which airs Tuesday at 11 p.m. ET on MTV, Pharrell and Ed are taking a break on the set of the “Sing” video.

“When I first met you I was like, ‘Oh man, I want to work with this kid. I see something, he’s incredible,’ Pharrell said. “I was like ‘Man, just let me get in the studio with this guy.”

Ed seems to have a hard time coming to the realization that the “Happy” singer was so eager to work with him, admitting that he was “a little bit confused.”

“I went in that morning and checked iTunes and #1 was “Get Lucky” and #2 was “Blurred Lines” and I was like I’m sure he’s got somewhere more important to be than in the studio with me,” Ed said in the clip.

Ed’s MTV documentary brings his fans on a journey as he takes you behind-the-scenes of his hometown, discusses his rise to fame and releases his new single.

But that’s not all, Sheerios: After you watch the documentary, immediately switch over to MTV.com and catch Ed live, in studio, for a 30-minute “Live From MTV” livestream at 12 a.m. ET.

Kourtney Kardashian Confirms: ‘I’m Pregnant’

by 06/09/14

It’s official: Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant!

After rumors began circulating last week that the reality TV star was expecting, Kourtney confirmed the news during a super-tease that aired just after the season premiere of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” on Sunday.

Kourtney is seen telling her longtime boyfriend Scott Disick that she’s indeed expecting their third child. While sharing a moment together in their brand-new home, the oldest Karadshain sister simply says to Scott, “I’m pregnant.” Clearly, Scott wasn’t expecting the news because he just replies with a shocking, “What?”

The mom of 4-year-old Mason and 23-month-old Penelope then tells her mom, Kris Jenner, and sister Kim that the pregnancy was not planned. But they’re all ecstatic about the news.

Watching Kourtney’s baby bump grow won’t be the only thing fans have to look forward to on this season of “KUWTK” however. During the teaser, we see Kim prepping for her lavish wedding to Kanye West, trying on her custom Givenchy gown and heading to Thailand with her family for their annual vacation.

But this season will focus a lot on the end of certain relationships as well. We’ll see how Bruce and Kris get along following their split, as well as the fallout of Khloe’s divorce from Lamar and the beginning of her romance with rapper French Montana.

Officer Bennett Wonders: Does ‘Orange Is The New Black’ Have Room For A ‘Happy Ending’?

by 06/06/14

It’s finally here!

“Orange Is The New Black” made its big return on Friday (June 6) on Netflix. Now, not all of us could stay up all night and watch the entire season in one sitting (if you did, I applaud you), so some of us still have several, unanswered burning questions.

And one of those questions is: What will go down between Daya, Bennett, Menendez and that baby on the way?

matt

We recently caught up with Officer Bennett himself, Matt McGorry, who couldn’t give us any spoilers, but he did tell us what he hopes happens between the two.

“I’d like to see a happy ending,” McGorry said. “Unfortunately, I don’t know if that’s the best storytelling either. I feel like if they sailed off into the sunset… they are not going to create a spinoff that’s on the Caribbean islands. But I’d like to see a happy ending. But it’s a tricky situation there are a lot of layers to it, and I wish them the best.”

While we may or may not see a happily ever after for these two, fans of the hit series will be happy to know that we will most likely be getting some more scenes that look like this:

“There will be some things that the fans won’t be disappointed about,” Matt said when asked about shirtless moments during this season. “I’ll put it that way.”

Exclusive Pics: Get The First Look At MKTO On Nickelodeon’s ‘The Thundermans’

by 06/05/14

MKTO are returning to Nickelodeon!

Tony Oller and Malcolm Kelly met in 2010 while filming the Nickelodeon television series “Gigantic” and make up the pop duo MKTO. Now, they’re making their network return on the series “The Thundermans,” and we’ve got the exclusive pics!

MKTO will be dusting off their acting chops this fall as they perform and guest star as themselves on the live action series, which revolves around the Thunderman twins — one a superhero and one a super villain.

Now, while we don’t know too much of what goes down in the episode, we can tell by the photos that the duo appear to be in a diner, acting alongside one of the stars of the show, Kira Kosarin, who plays Phoebe Thunderman.

In another shot, MKTO appear to be taking a bit of a break from shooting as they pose alongside Kira and Jack Griffo, who plays Max Thunderman, Phoebe’s brother.

MKTO, whose single “Classic” peaked at #21 on the Billboard Hot 100, have a busy few months in store. The two, along with Christina Perri, are hitting the road with Demi Lovato on her very first world tour, which kicks off in September.

by 06/04/14

New couple alert!

Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden have been sparking dating rumors lately, but on Tuesday, the duo sort of confirmed they were a couple as they were spotted taking a walk and holding hands through the West Village in New York City after grabbing some coffee.

EXCLUSIVE: **PREMIUM RATES APPLY****NO DAILY MAIL ONLINE**Cameron Diaz seen hand in hand with new boyfriend Benji Madden in NYC

They’ve kept their reported romance under the radar, with Benji — who just released the song “We Are Done” with brother Joel as The Madden Brothers, not Good Charlotte — playing coy about Cameron while talking with Ryan Seacrest on his radio show recently.

“Well, Ryan, there’s only one way to find out.” He continued, “You’ve got to play Ryan’s Roses…that’s still a radio phenomenon.”

US Weekly first reported that the two were an item last month after being set up by Joel’s wife, Nicole Richie, who is supposedly a close friend of Cameron’s.

Katy Perry Reveals How Long She’s Gone Without Having Sex

by 06/04/14

Ever wonder what Katy Perry‘s secret is to getting a guy? No, it’s not her looks, killer style or her voice: It’s crystals.

Katy sat down with Chelsea Handler for the July issue of Cosmopolitan and she divulged to the E! talk show host the reason she has such a hard time staying single.

“I carry a lot of rose quartz, which attracts the male,” Katy said according to E! News. “Maybe I need to calm it down with the amethyst.”

katy

Not surprisingly, while chatting with Chelsea, the topic of sex came up. The comedian boldly asked how long the “Roar” singer has gone without sex.

“Maybe six months or a year,” Katy answered. “I don’t stay single for long.”

The singer, who stays away from one-night-stands, also revealed that when she’s in a relationship she’s not “super strict” when it comes to her sex life.

“I’m not like Professor Higgins with my sex life. I’m not super strict. For me, the most important thing about sex is connection,” Katy added. “If I could bottle up oxytocin -— that chemical that’s released when you’re having sex — and put it in a new perfume, I would do it for sure.”

Perry wasn’t off the hook when it came to talking about past boyfriends, though. She answered the question on a lot of KatyCats’ minds: Would she ever get back with John Mayer?

“I know it sounds really hippie-sh–, but I’m living in the now and not fantasizing about the future ...
