Do you have a first-aid kit handy? Because Danity Kane just released a new single and I may faint with excitement.

Ever since DK announced their comeback at the 2013 VMAs, fans (including me) have been anxiously awaiting some new music and late Wednesday night, the girls finally granted our wishes and dropped a new single, “Lemonade.”

Teaming up with the Stereotypes — who produced their hit “Damaged” — and grabbing a guest feature from Tyga, the song is the perfect way to kick off not only summer, but the girl group’s return. Over a sample of Clipse’s “Grindin,’” the girls show off their vocals and pretty impressive harmonies as they serve a fresh batch of lemonade to all those haters.

“Ohh, these haters got a sour head look upon their face / Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade / Ooh, they lookin’ so thirsty / They might just need a drink,” they sing.

The song, which is the first single off their upcoming third album, takes on a more R&B/hip-hop sound then their previous hits “Showstopper” and “Damaged,” but the mature sound and new approach definitely works for them.

The group originally formed on MTV’s “Making The Band,” then disbanded in 2009 after releasing two albums. But they decided to return, this time without Diddy and onetime band member D. Woods, who opted out of the reunion.

But the rumor mill began to spin again last night when fans noticed that only three girls are featured on the single artwork for “Lemonade”; the ...

The first look at Ben Affleck’s Batman costume for the upcoming “Man of Steel” sequel was met with a mostly positive reaction by fans, but there was one thing missing.

Some color.

A couple of Photoshop-savvy fans imagined what the full color version of the new Batsuit might look like, but without an official non-monochrome look, we’re left scratching our heads trying to guess if it’s all black, gray or has some blue.

Because in reality, the Batfleck Batsuit could be any color, and to prove they point, we dreamt up the worst possible color options for the Caped Crusader.

How is he supposed to stalk in sequins?

This is technically camouflage.

There’s no shame in a corporate sponsorship to help pay the bills.

This kind of misses the point of the whole Superman rivalry.

This is from Batman’s more “experimental” phase.

The untitled “Man of Steel” sequel opens in theaters on May 6, 2016.

Lil Wayne just released his Tha Carter V single, “Believe Me,” featuring Drake, earlier this month, but Tunechi has already got us excited for his other new music.

During the latest episode of his weekly web series “Weezy Wednesdays,” the rapper previews a brand new song: “D’usse.” The track, produced by DJ Nasty, takes its name from the Jay Z-endorsed Cognac, which Wayne pours himself a glass of in the video.

“This motherf–kin’ D’usse got me sweatin’ and shi–. Word to God,” he says over the beginning of the airy, symphonic beat. “Hov, f–k wit’ ya boy.”

The 16-second clip leaves us with plenty of questions, though.

Will the track be featured on Tha Carter V, due out later this year?

Seems like a safe bet, but we don’t know for sure.

Will it feature Jay?

The two have worked together before, but, more recently than that, they’ve exchanged jabs on wax. While their lyrical warfare hasn’t been ignited of late, Hov and Drake continue to send shots in each other’s direction.

When will we get the final version?

This one’s hard to predict. With “Believe Me” still impacting, the full version of “D’usse” may not drop for a bit. This will have to suffice until then.

For a movie about a giant lizard, you might be surprised to hear that one of the greatest strengths of “Godzilla” is its restraint.

It’s all in the way director Gareth Edwards decided to handle the classic monster. To make Godzilla seem even more powerful, the audience only hears about him for the first 40 minutes, and then he’s kept just off screen until the grand finale.

The result is one of the most rewarding summer movie experiences in a long time, and it was all by design.

“It was always the intention to incrementally build…” Edwards told MTV News. “Nowadays, you can do absolutely everything in a computer. A lot of films do. Even though, individually, you look at that shot in the trailer and you go ‘Aww, that’s amazing.’ You take this shot, ‘Aww, that’s amazing.’ If you put a thousand of them together, you kind of get a fatigue where you stop caring about what you’re seeing. I was more worried about committing that crime than the crime of ‘It’s 40 minutes. Where is he?’ ”

Edwards has taken up the same method of restraint in regards to any sequel talk as well. He said that he has an idea of where a potential follow-up might go, but he’s waiting for people to see and enjoy “Godzilla” before going down that road.

Perhaps… Mothra?

“Godzilla” opens in theaters on May 16.

Rolling landscapes, tomboy fashion, and a dog the size of a baby elephant: all of this and more is what’s in store when Kristen Stewart makes her debut as a director of music videos.

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Stewart explained how she came to helm the video for “Take Me to the South,” a song from the 2013 “I Will Lie” EP by rock-country band Sage + the Saints. Musician Sage Galesi, a friend of Kristen’s, was the one who convinced the actress to step behind the cameras for the project — which Kristen did, despite a lot of trepidation.

“Basically, I’m grateful to Sage, because she was like, ‘I have this little thing, no one could tell the story better than you… just do it and stop being such a p—-,’” Stewart said.

The video itself premieres on May 28, but a minute-long teaser — featuring a snippet of the song, some Nashvillian footage, and a fun series of peeks at Kristen in conversation with cast and crew— is available now. What can we expect from K-Stew’s first go as a director?

1. Dogs

Or rather, one gigantic dog. The enormous white beast gamboling through the countryside in the clip’s first 12 seconds gives rise to more questions than answers: why is he running? And who does he belong to? And can we pet him? He looks super-fluffy!

The camera captures K-Stew as she scouts locations in and around Nashville, including a desolate rural ...

The Standard Hotel has fired the employee who recorded a security video of a woman believed to be Beyonce’s sister, Solange Knowles, violently attacking Jay Z in the hotel’s elevator.

The employee, who is not being named, was fired for “breaching the security polices of the hotel and recording the confidential CCTV video,” the New York City hotel told The Associated Press on Wednesday (May 13).

In the video, the woman believed to be Solange is seen repeatedly hitting and kicking Jay, before their bodyguard steps in to fend her off.

“We are shocked and disappointed that there was a clear breach of our security system and the confidentiality that we count on providing our guests,” the hotel said in statement shortly after TMZ released the three-minute clip. “We are investigating with the utmost urgency the circumstances surrounding the situation and, as is our customary practice, will discipline and prosecute the individuals involved to our fullest capacity.”

While it’s still unclear what could have prompted Solange to lash out — reps for neither Jay or Solange have yet to comment on the incident — all appears to be well between she and Beyonce. On Wednesday morning, Bey made a rather loud statement on Instagram by posting several pictures of her with her younger sister.

With Slade Wilson’s army out for blood, Team Arrow must band together with the League of Assassins in an attempt to save Starling City from burning to the ground.

This week’s explosive season finale, entitled “Unthinkable,” sees Oliver Queen faced with an important decision: to kill Slade or not to kill Slade. As Felicity urges him to take the high road, Oliver comes up with a plan to outsmart Slade once and for all.

Here are the biggest highlights from this week’s “Arrow“:

Red Arrow
As Roy Harper finally wakes from his venom-induced coma, Oliver hands him his very own red mask. Now that the Mirakuru has completely left his system, Roy is looking a little less like Arsenal and a lot more like Red Arrow. In fact, this episode marks the first time that we’ve seen Roy successfully taking down enemies with his bow, as opposed to just punching them through a window.

Diggle’s Baby
When Dig and Lyla storm into A.R.G.U.S. headquarters, Amanda Waller reveals that Lyla is pregnant with Dig’s child. How will this affect Dig’s role on Team Arrow? Now that he’s going to be a father, perhaps Diggle will have to bow out of the vigilante business and let Roy Harper have his time to shine.

Passing the Torch
As agreed upon at the beginning of the episode, Sarah leaves Starling City to rejoin the League of Assassins; but not before handing her Canary jacket to her sister, Laurel. Since Laurel now knows Oliver’s secret and has successfully proven ...

Timbaland has his priorities.

After getting “emotional” while executive producing Michael Jackson’s much-anticipated posthumous album, XSCAPE, the superproducer revealed the details about his next project: Opera Noir.

Timbo’s fourth studio album was originally titled Textbook Timbo, but, over the course of the last year, the LP evolved after he realized who he was as an artist, what he was comfortable with and what he wanted to do.

“My album is called Opera Noir, ‘black opera,’” Tim told REVOLT. “It’s the truth. It’s just about life in general. My life. My personal life, and I found myself as an artist, as a human being and as a man.”

And while Timothy has had a hand in some of music’s biggest hit albums (Aaliyah’s One in a Million and Justin Timberlake’s FutureSex/LoveSounds) and singles (Nelly Furtado’s “Promiscuous” and Jay Z’s “Dirt Off Your Shoulder”), he set the bar pretty high for himself while comparing his upcoming solo set to a certified classic.

“It’s way different,” he said. “It’s more of a sound. It’s Timbaland’s Chronic. Dre have his Chronic, I finally made my Chronic. When it comes out and you see the whole package, you’ll understand why. You’ll get it, you’ll see it, and you’ll be like, ‘Wow, I’ve never seen nothing like this.’”

As for guest features, the “FuckWithMeYouKnowIGotIt” beat maestro is keeping it pretty simple.

“Me and my new artist, her name is V. Just me and her. And Cee-Lo. That’s it,” he said.

Last August, pop fans simultaneously jumped for joy and scratched their heads when a never-before-released Michael Jackson track surfaced online that featured Justin Bieber. But shortly after, just as mysteriously as it came, it vanished.

That track, the up-tempo, dance-driven “Slave 2 The Rhythm,” is noticeably absent from the just-released XSCAPE, a collection of eight never-before heard tracks from the King of Pop. But there’s a valid reason for that, and the album’s executive producer, LA Reid, is hardly ruling out getting Justin and Michael together on a new — and official — track. After all, the Epic Records CEO has played an integral role in the young pop star’s career, and Reid admitted that “Justin is my guy… I feel like I should protect him.”

“‘Slave 2 the Rhythm’ didn’t include [Bieber] per my direction. That was something done separate and apart from me, and it was leaked. If it hadn’t been leaked it would have been featured, but it sort of took the wrong turn,” Reid told “Access Hollywood” earlier this week. “But we’re going to revisit that. We’re gonna revisit that and do something special with Justin Bieber and Michael.”

Whatever they do come up with, Reid said he’ll ensure that the collaboration lives up to Jackson’s standards — even if it isn’t the next “Thriller.”

“Michael has some of the greatest albums…. it’s very, very tough to top that. Michael always lived in his mind of topping it,” he said of the eight tracks that ...
