Secure that she killed the Halloween game with her sexy 
 barely-there S&M outfit, Nicki Minaj spent most of Friday morning (November 1) re-posting her favorite pics of Barbz and Kenz dressed in their best Nicki drag.

From babies to teens and grown women, Nicki's favorites are a hilariously eclectic bunch, though one thing they all had in common was amazing hair and appropriately candy-colored outfits.

Here are some of Nicki's picks:

Nicki And Miley
One of the most popular memes was snaps of Minaj with this year's most popular costume: tongue-wagging Miley Cyrus. Some got close up with it and others went for a group dynamic, Robin Thicke and Lil Wayne into the mix.

Nicki, Weezy and 2 Chainz
Minaj's second favorite trend were snaps of her with labelmate Lil Wayne, some of which added in Drake or just kept it old school.

Cute And Sassy
One of the funniest of the bunch was a pic of a mom (we hope) with her Lil Nicki in a leopard print bodysuit, rivaled only by an adorable kid in pink leggings and what we can only imagine is the youngest Barb on the planet.

Katy, Jigsaw And Gaga
No matter where the Barbz were, they had plenty of company, including the ultimate "muf---in' MONSTA" Jigsaw from the "Saw" series, as well as Lady 2 Chainz, Lady Gaga, a Kanye mask and a purple-haired Katy Perry.

One of our favorites, though, was a fan who uploaded a ...

Hardcore fans of the "Enderverse" have waited nearly 30 years to see "Ender's Game" hit the big screen. But now, supporters of the young-adult series get to see the franchise kick off with a sci-fi legend in a lead role and the promise of a #1 box-office debut.

Box-office analysts expect to see "Ender's Game" end the competition this weekend with an opening in the $26 million range. While that figure isn't anywhere near the massive success of "Gravity" (it will actually be closer to Will Smith's big-budget bomb, "After Earth") it should be more than enough to beat last weekend's champ, "Bad Grandpa," and fend off fellow newcomers. It should be a decent hit for Han Solo himself, Harrison Ford, whose "Paranoia" turned out to be one of the worst flops of 2013.

The first animated movie in theaters since "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2," the Thanksgiving-friendly "Free Birds," should collect more than $20 million to claim the runner-up position. "Parks & Recreation" star Amy Poehler leads the voice cast.

Ensemble comedy "Last Vegas" should do decent business, while the limited rollouts of "About Time" (from the director or "Love Actually") and Dallas Buyer's Club" (starring Matthew McConaughey) will benefit from the strong reviews of both films. Likely Best Picture contender "12 Years a Slave" will expand its reach to over 400 theaters, having already collected close to $4 million.

Have you always wanted to go home with One Direction? Well, it looks like 1D is giving fans that opportunity in a new video teaser for their . Get ready to grab the stills they're releasing from the vid as well.

While the first preview showed the fivesome developing photographic film in a darkroom, now, they're giving fans an intimate and personal glimpse at their lives in the latest sneak peek. The 18-second teaser is rife with close-ups of the band. As a bonus, the guys each also shared photos from the visual, which officially drops Sunday.

Those stills feature Harry Styles eating sausages and Zayn being all cute in his childhood bedroom. We see the bandmates chilling with their families, too.

Louis Tomlinson was proud to share that his grandparents will be making a cameo in the video. And from the looks of it, Liam Payne will be joined by his mom, dad and sisters.

And with all those shots of Niall Horan in his warm, wooly sweater, we already know what the video's standout moments are going to be.

"Story of My Life" is the second single off the band's November 25 album release, Midnight Memories. The song's co-songwriter, Graffiti6's Jamie Scott, opened up to MTV News about working on the single with the fivesome. "We just wanted to write something that was true and I think with 'Story of my Life,' it really hits a chord with people that have heard it so far," he said.

If you consider Pusha T's street-soaked past, you can imagine how motivational his crack-to-rap story can be for some. Last Sunday, the G.O.O.D. Music golden child headed to Hollywood, Florida, with Rick Ross to provide a bit of hustler's inspiration for their collaborative cut from Pusha's solo debut, My Name Is My Name — and MTV News was on set.

"The concept of 'Hold On' is me and Ross performing in front of some neighborhood guys, lecturing and basically telling the people of the neighborhood — our peers, essentially — that we're here for them and we're doing this for them," Push told MTV News of the video.

Produced by Kanye West and Hudson Mohawke, the song was recorded in Hawaii during a G.O.O.D. Music getaway and is as one of Pusha's favorites from the album. The emotional track finds both Pusha and Ross reflecting on the perils of the drug game. "Overnight I seen a n---a go get a Carrera/ Two weeks later, had to be that boy pallbearer," Rozay spits, illustrating how quick street circumstances can change.

"Ross is a perfect fit for any song with me, personally, because I feel like he's one of the people I could count on to give a clean, concise, immaculate verse," Push said of his co-star.

In one of the video's unfinished scenes, the Clipse MC and the Maybach Music boss stand in a drab room, as a bunch of young men sit around them and soak up the lessons each rapper drops. With his opening line, Pusha readily shares that ...

It's not supposed to happen this way. You can't just stop acting for five years, rev up a ginormous musical career and then return to movies with the most critically hailed role of your career. But that's been precisely the path for Jared Leto. Fear not, 30 Seconds to Mars are still very much at the center of his life (he was on a brief break from a tour when he spoke with us), but acting is very much back in the picture thanks to

Leto's performance as Rayon, a transgender AIDS patient and unlikely friend to Matthew McConaughey's homophobe-turned-activist Ron Woodruff, is earning the kind of reviews that usually serve as a precursor to Oscar adulation. It's a performance that rises beyond stereotypes and cliché (one could imagine such a path, as Leto wears women's clothing throughout). When the actor stopped by MTV News, he opened up about his acting break, why he has no regrets and the need to continue to test himself.

MTV: You took a significant break from acting. Did you intend it to be a retirement?

Jared Leto: Don't call it a comeback. I took five or six years off. I dunno. It's kind of like what John Lennon said, "Life is what happens when you make other plans." I don't know if it was an end or a retirement. I didn't have plans to ever make another film again.

MTV: Had you been frustrated with the material that you were getting?

Leto: I wasn't really frustrated with acting so much. I think it was a ...

It's that time of year again when the AAA franchises hit the mainstream and all the salivating fanboys can finally get their grubby hands on some amazing games. We've already seen Batman learn to feel and have plundered the Caribbean with an assassin. Now, the first of two major shooter titles aims to please fans.

Yes, EA and DICE's squad-based, competitive multiplayer shooter, "Battlefield 4," is out. Here's everything you need to know to gear up, load out and jump into the fight!

There's Single Player ...

The hazy plot focuses around a high-ranking Chinese official battling a radical Chinese general. Basically, if this guy dies, China and Russia will tag-team against a flailing U.S.A. The nuclear event from "BF3" left tensions high between the East and West as alliances began to fold. (Pretty much your typical Tom Clancy novel minus some of the boring politics.) Tombstone squad (that's you!) is tasked with getting the official out of China. Of course, all hell breaks loose and suddenly you're balancing on a tightrope as two nations are at the brink of war.

Like any explosion-fest, Michael Bay movie, there are plenty of neat, scripted moments for you gawk at but some of the little details hamper the pacing. Several times you might ask who or what is going on. Really, though, the single player is mostly to acclimate to the controls and feel of the game.

Emergent gameplay exists around every corner. Each sudden ambush, perfect shot, or lucky break serves as fodder for locker-room bragging. Look up ...

Wednesday marked the anniversary of the "Star Wars: Episode VII" announcement. We're a year closer to the proposed 2015 release date, but with a new story saying that the film won't be ready in time, is there some production drama fans should be concerned about?

Originally, Academy Award-winner Michael Arndt would write and J.J. Abrams would direct the first installment of a new trilogy. But Arndt has since left the project, passing off scripting duties to Abrams and "Empire Strikes Back" co-writer Lawrence Kasdan. Rumors of the director's dissatisfaction over scheduling date back to July.

There have also been a few casting rumors without an officially signed actor to show for it. Disney still hasn't even confirmed that Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford will return. (Although everyone assumes they will be.)

A lack of information would not be particularly notable — especially from a movie directed by the highly secretive Abrams — if it wasn't for the tone of recent rumors.

The Hollywood Reporter's sources reveal that there may be something to the drama talk. According to the story, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy requested from Disney a new 2016 release date, saying that the movie just won't be ready for the promised summer 2015 date, and she has since been denied.

A year later, is it time to start worrying about "Star Wars"? It's a question that has been bandied about, mostly in conversations between fans, but Arndt's departure and the Hollywood Reporter story have made it impossible to ignore.

Are you worried about 'Star Wars: Episode VII'?

Writer/director Richard Curtis returns to the romantic comedy genre this weekend, mixing in a little time travel for good measure with "About Time." Domhnall Gleeson stars as a man who finds out he has the ability to time-travel within his own lifetime. Naturally, he uses the ability to get with a hot girl way out of his league, played by Rachel McAdams.

Ultimately, it's the date crowd that will determine how this movie fares at the box office, but what did critics think? Did it make them want to travel back in time to stop the movie from ever being made? Or did they want to relive it over and over again? Or alternately, did they avoid time-travel metaphors in their reviews altogether? (Hint: nope.)

The Father-Son Scenes Are Great
"The father-son scenes are offbeat, funny and genuinely warm. Gleeson (who played one of Ron Weasley's brothers and is the son of Irish actor Brendan) is not going to work as Curtis' new Hugh Grant — he's a sidekick, not a leading man, and the couple of scenes in which beautiful women invite him home after a single nice conversation border on sci-fi. But he works just fine with [Bill] Nighy, who makes these scenes glow. With his lightly worn authority and quietly generous spirit, he makes for the ideal dad." — Kyle Smith, New York Post

So Is McAdams
"As an actress and as a movie star — she's certifiably both — McAdams has traveled this way before: In 'The Time Traveler's Wife,' she was (spoiler alert) the wife of ...
