What was the most exciting thing you did this week? Did you graduate, go to a barbecue or, I don’t know, skydive? Coincidentally, “Skydive” is also the title of O-Town‘s new single — their first in a decade! Sadly, they’re down one angel (Ashley Parker Angel, that is), but that’s al right because this is more than any O-Town-obsessed fan could have asked for!

Not an O-Town fan? Maybe you’re a sports enthusiast or 50 Cent fan. If so, then you probably saw the epic fail that was the rapper throwing the first pitch at a Mets game.

Also, Lady Gaga is “speechless.”

We have the footage to prove it and all of this week’s stories that you #NeedToKnow in the video below. Congratulations, if you’re graduating or graduated within the past couple of weeks! Whether you are or feel nostalgic for some graduation song classics, we have those tunes for you in our @Spotify playlist. We’re proud you finished school (and the week)!

I think it’s time to actually define “feminism,” to reiterate exactly what “feminism” is. Because, to be honest, some of us don’t know.

Many of those people, including Shailene Woodley and, most recently, Pharrell, refuse to affix the “feminist” label to their lapel. But what I’m thinking is that they’re feminists in disguise. After all, a feminist is just someone who believes that women should have the same opportunities as men.

“I don’t think it’s possible for me to be that,” Pharrell said when asked if he was a feminist in a U.K. TV interview on Wednesday. “I’m a man. It makes sense up until a certain point. But what I do is, I do support feminists.”

But if you support feminists and what they believe in, aren’t you a feminist yourself? Pharrell then went on to say very feminist things about women in leadership and the way society physically upholds women.

“I would love to see a woman run the country,” he said. “Historically, this world has been run by man. And what would a world be like if 75 percent our world leaders, our presidents and prime ministers, were female? What would that world be like? We don’t know, because we haven’t given it a shot. We’re too busy telling them what they can and can’t do with their bodies. Or, we’re too busy, you know, not allowing them to make the same amount of money that a man makes.”

See? I think Pharrell might be confused.

The thing is, you ...

Grab your eleventy-billion SPF sunblock and Tumblr-approved bucket hat, because MTV’s Waterproof Weekend is taking you straight to the beach this Saturday and Sunday — and we’re bringing Cody Simpson and Rixton along with us.

Tune into MTV on Saturday, May 31 between 1 p.m. and 9 p.m. ET to watch the “Me And My Broken Heart” lads kicking it with “10 on Top” host Lenay Dunn, and catch Cody on Sunday, June 1 between 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. ET.

The guys will build sandcastles, play volleyball, and even get real with a round of “I Never” and “Marry, Kiss, Kill.” Hopefully, no one will end up shame-spiraling under a towel because they keep winning/losing “I Never.” #projecting

I don’t wanna give too much else away, but let’s just say that cougar-chaser Cody’s surfboard (board-board-board-board-board-board) will definitely make an appearance. I mean, his actual surfboard. Ugh, double entendres — foiled again!

Kim and Kanye are already acting like an old married couple.

The newlyweds are enjoying a pretty normal honeymoon (we told you!) in Ireland, taking in a movie at the local Irish Multiplex Cinemas in Tullamore, Ireland.

The couple, who color-coordinated in black, caught Cameron Diaz’s latest flick, “The Other Woman,” and were greeted by a swarm of paparazzi and shocked locals upon their departure.

Earlier in the day they caught “X Men: Days of Future Past” in nearby Port Laoise.

But hitting up local theatres isn’t how they’ve been spending their entire honeymoon. They’ve been getting a bit adventurous as well, unfortunately not with zip lines. The two reportedly went on a mountain biking excursion in Ballyhoura to see the country side of Ireland.

On Friday (May 30), the couple were spotted in Prague where, according to E!, they are in town for Kanye’s stylists wedding.

The low-key honeymoon is a sharp contrast from their over-the-top lavish wedding. The couple wined and dined with close friends in family in Paris, enjoying a brunch with Valentino and a rehearsal dinner at the Palace of Versailles. After that, they all jumped on a plane over to Florence, Italy, for the picture-perfect ceremony, which had them sealing their vows with a kiss in front of a white wall of roses.

When Aleah found out she was expecting on “16 and Pregnant,” it wasn’t something she could have ever imagined for herself, especially because she’d been on the birth control shot, Depo-Provera. Even though she hadn’t received a shot in a while, she hadn’t gotten her period, so she thought she was safe. So how did she end up pregnant?

First off, kudos to Aleah for choosing Depo. As one of the most effective methods, Depo-Provera (pronounced like Johnny Depp-oh), is long-lasting, private and a good hormonal choice for those who can’t take estrogen. You only have to go to the doctor or clinic for an injection once every three months — but, as Aleah learned the hard way, if you miss an appointment, there’s a good chance it WON’T work. With perfect use, the shot is more than 99 percent successful.

As for Aleah not thinking she could even get pregnant because she hadn’t gotten her period, that’s a side-effect of the shot: Irregular bleeding, especially for the first 6-12 months, is pretty common.

Depo is one of those methods that is easy to use, doesn’t interrupt the heat of the moment, doesn’t require daily maintenance and is super private. But it’s only one of many options.

As weeks go, Iggy Azalea isn’t having the worst one. Now, I don’t want to jinx anything — as there are still roughly two days left until the week re-ups — but she could, in fact, be having the best collection of seven days yet.

Check out our very scientific reasoning below:

She Bested The Beatles

On this week’s Billboard Hot 100, not only did Iggy Azalea nab the top two spots — with “Fancy” and Ariana Grande collab “Problem” — she also joined the ranks of the Beatles.

Yup, Azalea’s first two Hot 100 hits have climbed to #1 and #2 simultaneously, a feat not achieved since 1964 when the Beatles charted with “I Want to Hold Your Hand” and “She Loves You.”

Fancy indeed.

She’s Part Of The ‘Problem’

Speaking of Grande’s chart-topping hit, the video for “Problem” drops today, featuring Iggy and Big Sean.

Despite the song’s title, we have no problem with that.

B.o.B is currently at work on his No Genre Pt 2 mixtape, but on Friday (May 30), he premiered a brand new video for his single “All I Want,” off of December’s Underground Luxury

A portion of the video finds the Atlanta rapper spitting in front of a wall covered with money, and in other scenes more bills cover the faces of people singing along to the song.

“So many women, so many chains, so many bottles,” he raps — there are just so many things that Bobby Ray wants. And if the hook on “All I Want” is interpreted literally, we’d be led to believe that money is what matters most — but that actually isn’t the truth.

Back in November, MTV News caught up with B.o.B. on the video set where he explained what the song was really about. “You can listen to the song and say, ‘Oh, it’s just about money.’ But it’s not,” he said. “It’s about accomplishment. It’s about growth.”

Watch the clip above.

If you’ve seen trailers or TV spot’s for “Maleficent,” you may have noticed a few similarities to other recent blockbusters.

Like how the floating lights Princess Aurora examines look like the ones from “Avatar.”

Or how the flying sequence from “Maleficent” resembles another scene in the James Cameron hit.

The answer is actually very simple (and not just one studio trying to recreate the success of another).

Robert Stromberg, who makes his directorial debut on “Maleficent,” won an Oscar for his production design work on “Avatar.” The distinctive look he gave Pandora led to other jobs, which had his signature look all over them.

For example, take a look at these stills, one from “Maleficent,” the other from “Oz the Great and Powerful,” another film he did the production design for.

Stromberg clearly has a style, and it’s one that’s won him two Oscars. So if you think there was some less-than-cool borrowing from other movies for “Maleficent,” you’re just seeing the director’s touch.

“Maleficent” is in theaters now.

When director Josh Boone set out to make “The Fault In Our Stars” he knew there was one song that absolutely had to be in the movie.

“I pitched it to Fox as not a cancer movie,” Boone told MTV News about the adaptation of the John Green young adult novel, which hits theaters June 6. The story follows teen cancer patients Hazel (Shailene Woodley) and Gus (Ansel Elgort) as they fall in love and fight illness in one fell swoop.

“I said this is ‘Titanic’ and cancer is the iceberg,” Boone added. “The iceberg is not as important as the love story that’s on the boat.”

Boone has confronted that iceberg in his own life, and felt strongly that the song that had soundtracked the time he spent with a friend fighting cancer, M83′s “Wait,” should also be in the movie.

“I had a really close friend die of Stage 4 lung cancer and I was in hospice with him and in the hospital, and with him at home when he was back home and sick,” Boone said. “When I was in the hospital with him that M83 album had just come out and I listened to one song over and over.”

The song, which originally appeared on the album “Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming,” features a repeating chorus of the line “no time, no time.” It plays twice in the movie, including once toward the end when audience waterworks will surely be flowing.

There was also an element of serendipity that led to the song’s ...

We can’t take the wedding coyness any longer, Nicole Polizzi!

Snooki is getting ready to say “I do” to longtime beau Jionni LaValle, and plans for her “Great Gatsby”-themed nuptials are well underway. The hot mama’s sense of style has always been bold, so it’s not surprising that she intends to wear a gown that’s dramatic when she sashays down the aisle. If you’re anything like us, you’re hoping she manages to find the sartorial equivalent of a hair bump-it for her big day, but it appears as if she’s going in another direction. That is, if her website teases are to be believed.

The MTV star knows we are desperate to learn details about her wedding style, and hopped online last night to taunt us! The update features a pic of Snooki striking her favorite photo-op angle — the side-profile view — and looking stunning in a long, flowing, mermaid gown.

Very glam! Still, don’t get too attached to this specific frock, because it isn’t “the one.” *Shakes fists at the heavens*

The petite dynamo wrote with the snapshot:

“How gorgeous is this dress? I loved it, but needed more of an UMPH. I’m too short for an elegant mermaid dress, but I loved how vintage and classy this was can’t wait for the big day to show you all the dress I did pick out!!!”

And we CAN’T WAIT to see it.
