One of the most constant (and most heartbreaking, since it’s true to life) threats on “Orange is the New Black” is, and always has been, the possibility of being sent to the secure (solitary) housing unit, popularly known as “SHU.” Piper has been there twice, Pennsatucky lost even more of her marbles during her recent stint, and it’s practically poor Watson’s second home.

So when MTV News caught up with the so-close-they’re-family cast in New York last week, we just had to ask — which of the show’s many stars has been so bad on set that they could actually use a stay in this horrible, horrible place? The answers varied, but one name was definitely heard loud and clear above all others: Natasha Lyonne, who plays “junkie philosopher” Nicky Nichols. Thankfully, Lyonne didn’t seem to mind — in fact, she wholeheartedly agreed.

“I know based on the shame I experience the morning after I work on set that there is probably something I’m doing that is not okay,” she said with a laugh. “Because I know I’m left with a dirty feeling that I did something inappropriate the day before.”

Sounds like a good time to us. Find out who else got thrown under the bus for bad behavior in the below!

MTV’s latest “True Life” told the stories of two young women facing a battle of the bulge — and dealing with their boyfriends’ frustrations over their excess weight. We had an opportunity to check in with Sara and Desiree to find out what they’ve been up to since filming wrapped. Take a look at the follow-up Q&As:

SARA
How’s it going with your weight loss, exercise and diet?
I’ve been working out three to five times a week. I’ve been practicing yoga and taking Zumba classes. On the weekend, [my boyfriend] Enrique and I walk or jog three miles at the beach together. We also go to the gym together a couple times a week. I’ve lost about 15 pounds since starting my exercise routine and eating healthier, and I plan to lose more. Finding something I actually enjoy doing has made it easier to stick to my exercise goals.

Has Enrique stuck to his promise and backed off about your weight, or is he still making comments?
Enrique still encourages me to work out and eat healthy, but he has stopped making negative and hurtful comments about my weight.

Has he lost the weight he gained after moving in with you?
Yes…and he continues to go the gym four to five times a week, for at least three hours each time.

What was it like sharing your story with us?
Sharing my story was kinda scary when thinking about the negative comments viewers may make about us, but it was also ...

A lot has happened since the movie “Twister” came out in 1996, but most important for “Into the Storm” — the upcoming Steven Quale-helmed tornado disaster flick — is the fact that special effects have gotten way, way better. Like, we’re pretty sure that everyone’s former favorite movie about cray cray storm chasers heading into the eye of a deadly cyclone never featured one that is made entirely out of fire, or another, apocalyptic-looking one that seems capable of destroying an entire town in approximately eight seconds.

Hopefully, stars Sarah Wayne Callies and Richard Armitage learned enough from fighting zombies on “The Walking Dead” and Smaug in “The Hobbit” movies (respectively) that they can survive this thing, but from the looks of this trailer, we’re not so sure:

“Into the Storm” hits theaters on August 8th.

Michael Bay movies are enormous, high-energy spectacles that can take a lot out of any actor. But making two Michael Bay movies in a row is tiring enough to even make Mark Wahlberg want to take a breather.

I caught up with Wahlberg on the red carpet premiere for “Transformers: Age of Extinction” in New York City, and one of Hollywood’s busiest actors seemed ready for his well-deserved break.

Wahlberg had signed onto “Transformers” shortly after finishing work on “Pain & Gain,” Bay’s previous movie, and the actor said that his director prepared him for the toy-based blockbuster series.

“You kind of get an idea of what it is, as far as the stunts and the level of action, but you don’t know until you’re going through it. You’ve just got to be prepared to be bumped around and stay as healthy as possible. You don’t want to slow up the production or the process. Just be ready when he calls you,” Wahlberg said.

“The biggest difference was that there were twice as many shooting days and a much bigger crew. It’s the same kind of great energy, a very collaborative environment that he creates for all of the actors. To me, it was very similar, actually.”

As the new lead of the series, it’s likely that Wahlberg will have a few more run-ins with the Autobots soon, but right now, he just wants some time off.

“I’m looking forward to a little bit of a break, after the shooting of ...

Trick Trick is ticked off. On Saturday, the Detroit rap veteran saw his name surface in reports, following a cancelled Rick Ross performance at Hot 107.5′s Summer Jamz 17 concert.

The rumor goes that Trick Trick organized a mob of people to meet Ross at the Chene Park Amphitheater and bar him for entering the venue. Rozay has already shot down those reports and on Thursday (June 26), Trick posted a video on WorldStarHipHop.com where he addresses things, as well.

“Concerning myself and that individual, it’s none of your motherf–kin’ business,” he barked at the camera, never referencing Ross by name. “That’s a grown man, I’m a grown man. Grown men don’t put grown men business out to the motherf–kin’ public.”

According to Ross, who spoke with 99 Jamz in Miami earlier this week, when members of his team arrived at the venue ahead of him, they were met by a locked gate and a gathering of people who were protesting the rapper. Trick was said to be behind the protest.

Earlier this year, Trick dropped a track titled “No Fly Zone,” where he warns out-of-town rappers that they need permission from him to enter his native city. Some reports painted the incident as a sort of extortion plot where Trick was looking to get some type of money out of Ross. Trick Trick says that is all false.

“My ‘No Fly Zone’ ain’t about takin’ nobody’s money. I don’t want your motherf–kin’ money, nobody,” he said. “What the ...

The feud between 50 Cent and Ja Rule has been lengthy and well-documented. From dis records to calling each other out in interviews, the two Queens natives have an extensive history of trading blows. Now, in Ja’s new book, Unruly: The Highs and Lows of Being a Man, out next month, he dishes on some physical blows that he says he dealt his rival.

“50 tried to swing on me, but I dipped, then I hit him with the baby Louisville Slugger,” he writes, referring to a 2000 peace summit in Atlanta, according to the New York Daily News. “Bam! I dropped the bat. I pulled the shirt over his head. I started catching him left, right, uppercut.”

The purported violence didn’t stop there, though. Ja recalls another incident from that year, when 50 was stabbed at the Hit Factory in NYC.

“I hit him with the crutch,” he says of the altercation. “We proceeded to whip his ass. I was putting in my work. 50 was crunched in the corner. I slammed the big Tannoy speaker down on him.”

Thankfully, of late, cooler heads have prevailed. Last year Ja tweeted that he and Fif ended up on the same flight with no problems.

In completely unsurprising (but still exciting) news, Katy Perry has been named the top certified digital artist ever by the RIAA. She earned the title by reaching 72 million cumulative Digital Single certifications, which is a fancy way of saying that people really, really love downloading and streaming her music.

No artist had ever passed the 70 million mark until now, so she’s kind of a big deal. Rihanna and Taylor Swift follow her on the Digital Singles chart with 52 and 51 million certifications, respectively.

Here’s How Katy Nabbed This Honor

She’s had 18 hit songs, ranking all the way back to her “I Kissed a Girl” days.

She got a 9x multi-Platinum certification for “Firework.”

She scored 7x multi-Platinums for both “California Gurls” and “E.T.”

She also got 6x multi-Platinums for “Dark Horse,” “Hot N Cold,” and “Teenage Dream.”

She won 18 Gold Digital Single Awards.

And she nabbed 16 Platinum Digital Single Awards.

And don’t forgot those 56 multi-Platinum Digital Single Awards she also won.

Her 2x multi-Platinum album Teenage Dream is also a factor.

And of course, her Platinum album One Of The Boys contributed.

Go Katy! We can’t wait to see what you do next.

While most “Wild ‘N Out” cast members are busy boosting their egos, newbie Rip Michaels just threw himself under the bus. Whether he realizes it or not.

In a backstage interview during filming for Season 6, below, Rip offers us a few tidbits about himself. And, in the process, he gives his fellow comedians puh-lenty of material to work with in their future Wildstyle battles.

“My favorite rapper and/or music artist is Adele and Sade,” Michaels first admits. “That’s right, I’m a sensitive thug.”

Hey, who doesn’t love “Rolling in the Deep“?

His next confession, however, could earn him years of ridicule on the “WNO” set.

“My guilty pleasure is actually, uh — I, I hate to say it,” he begins. “I am a [fan of] Vanessa Carlton, ‘Thousand Miles.’ I love it.”

Annnd that’s all she wrote. Let the ripping on Rip begin! In the meantime, we’ll just hope he has better moves than Terry Crews:

Check out more of Rip Michaels’ rapid-fire tell-all, and watch the Season 6 premiere of “Wild ‘N Out” next Wednesday at 11/10c on MTV2!

(Cam reveals his big features)

The first installation of Cam’ron’s “First of the Month” series is due on July 1, and although his recent tracklist doesn’t mention anything about Nicki Minaj, we know that we’ll hear them on a record together pretty soon.

On Wednesday night, Cam posted a video featuring a new Nicki verse, but of course the visuals and the captions had nothing to do with the song. Instead, he decided to go in on his manager, and then side-note that we were listening to Nicki.

“Yo!!! Why I pulled up on my manager @britishthetitan and he driving da #S63,” he joked. “How much am I paying u exactly n—?!! And don’t be tryna pull off on me neither n—!!”

Although Cam was light on details in this post, he did reveal to MTV News last month that a Nicki Minaj collaboration will be part of his “First of the Month” series, so we’ll stay tuned.

A native of Grenada, a product of Brooklyn, a student of hip-hop. Hi, I'm @neweryork.

Your mom thinks you’re a winner no matter what, and that’s nice, but if Johnny Depp thinks you’re a winner, it could change your life.

On Friday, Depp will act as judge on the Chinese reality TV show “Chinese Dream.” Contestants explain their dreams of stardom and give live performances, and audience voting determines which contestant, referred to as the “dreamer,” goes on to the next round.

Depp will decide the final winner, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The prize: Being whisked away to Los Angeles to live out their dreams in Hollywood, under Depp’s mentorship.

The actor, whose name is by this point nearly synonymous with fame and leading man-dom, said that he wanted to help ordinary people realize their dreams after he grew up wanting to be a rock star. Acting, he said, was a way to pay the bills.

It’s done much more than pay the bills for him, as we’ve seen from commercial successes such as the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise and more, Depp’s doing pretty alright for himself.

So, what do you say? Do you dream of Depp, or will Depp help you find your dreams.
