Rihanna on Coachella Pics: F--ks? Not Given!
Rihanna doesn't care what you think ... on 4/20 or any other day.
That much has been made abundantly clear, but nevertheless, fans were surprised to see her upload Instagram photos that feature her sitting on top of a bald bodyguard's head, rolling what appears to be a cigar leaf full of marijuana.
Good times at Coachella, apparently:
Risque Instagram pics are nothing new for her (see Rihanna topless self portraits from her Hawaiian vacation), but the weed-on-dude's-head pic raised eyebrows.
MTV tweeted a link to a story about how her "marijuana photos from Coachella sparked controversy," citing the above image and the implied marijuana use.
The 24-year-old singer took only 12 minutes to respond ...
It appears @rihanna got the better of this battle. MTV deleted its original tweet about her, then sent the singer another one shortly after, writing simply:
"Well played."
MTV to Teen Mom Cast: No More Fake Boobs!
Displeased by the breast enhancements members of the Teen Mom cast have undergone of late, MTV is looking to put the kibosh on future boob jobs.
She's not the first to go that route, but recent reports that wild child Jenelle Evans' fake boobs are next on tap, the network is looking to crack down.
Farrah Abraham and Maci Bookout also got their breasts done in the recent past, and the network is peeved at the sexed-up image of the moms.
Seriously. The network is supposedly not trying to sell sex ... for once.
Says a source close to the production of Teen Mom ...
“MTV has an idea of how they want the girls to come off and big fake boobs isn’t it. They have even called the other girls and begged them to hold off on."
The network, of course, made an entire plot line out of this last summer, but “It was one thing when it was just [Farrah Abraham] ... now it’s out of hand.”
Seriously. One pair of enhanced breasts on an aspiring model was one thing ... three is another thing. Let's just cool it with the superficiality, girls.
Kate Upton Zoo York Ad: Banned By MTV!
When MTV won't air an ad, you know it's gotta be pretty profane.
Such is the case for Kate Upton's latest campaign for skater clothing brand Zoo York, in which she can be seen jogging (and stretching!) through Manhattan as a pair of foul-mouthed cockroaches profanely ogle the the SI cover model.
That about sums it up. Watch the (VERY NSFW) spot below:
Adult Swim programs apparently banned the Kate Upton ad as well, which isn't really a big surprise, given that it makes her Carl's Jr. ad look downright tame.
Justin Bieber Punks Taylor Swift: Season Premiere Preview
Two THG favorites are featured on the season premiere of MTV's Punk'd.
The network will reboot this franchise on March 29, with original host Ashton Kutcher serving as executive producer but a different celebrity in charge of the big prank each week. Up first? Justin Bieber pulling one over on Taylor Swift.
Based on the preview below, it looks like Bieber sets Swift up to believe she ruined a couple's wedding... via some kind of big fire. Check it out now:
Future editions of the show - which will air at 10 p.m. on Thursdays - will be hosted by Miley Cyrus, Kellan Lutz, Hayden Panettiere, Bam Margera, and Dax Shepard; while victims will include Khloe Kardashian, Tyler Posey and Demi Lovato.
Teen Mom 3: Coming to MTV!
MTV has just given a green light to a third iteration of its popular Teen Mom franchise, according to reports. Teen Mom 3 will feature a new crop of kids ... and their kids.
This is not to be confused with Season Three of Teen Mom, starring Maci Bookout, Amber Portwood, Farrah Abraham and Catelynn Lowell, which is also in the works.
The second season of Teen Mom 2, starring Jenelle Evans, Leah Messer, Kailyn Lowry and Chelsea Houska, recently concluded (and will likely get a third season too).
Who will be the latest fab four chosen by MTV?
Critics say the shows glamorize teen pregnancy, though the rate has actually plummeted in recent years, and the storylines portrayed are more sad than glamorous overall.
In any case, get ready for a third installment of the phenomenally successful Teen Mom brand, whose cast is selected from the previous crop of 16 and Pregnant stars.
Who do you think it will be? It's hard to say, given that the new season of 16 hasn't even aired yet (March 27), but follow the link to meet the 16 & Pregnant cast.
The Pauly D Project: Spinoff to Premiere March 29!
The man, the myth, the tattooed tanning bed legend - Pauly D of Jersey Shore fame - will officially star in his own spinoff. The Pauly D Project premieres March 29.
His show takes viewers away from Seaside Heights as Pauly D (real name Paul DelVecchio) pursues his DJ dreams, scoring a contract with 50 Cent’s record label.
Between partnering with G-Note Records, opening for Britney Spears on tour and paling around with his friends from Rhode Island, the Project will cover it all.
Season 5 of Jersey Shore wraps on March 15 and airs a reunion special a week later. The Pauly D Project premieres at 10:30 p.m. March 29, after the return of Punk'd.
That show no longer features Ashton Kutcher, but a rotation of guest hosts like Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus. Khloe Kardashian and Demi Lovato are two "targets."
Pauly D's housemates Snooki and JWoww are also filming a Jersey Shore spinoff, though they were recently barred from their preferred filming location of Hoboken.
What do you think? Will you watch a Pauly D-centric program?

Teen Mom 2 Season Premiere Recap: Let the Train Wreck Begin!
Move over Amber Portwood, Maci Bookout, Farrah Abraham and Catelynn Lowell.
The stars of Teen Mom 2 - Chelsea Houska, Jenelle Evans, Kailyn Lowry and Leah Messer - are back for a second season of their own! In last night's Halloween-themed premiere, we saw them at their best and worst ... mostly the latter.
Come along as we break it down THG style!
Jenelle Evans' boyfriend Kieffer Delp is still around. Or should we say, he's back. Minus 20 for the Brunswick County (N.C.) Detention Center releasing him early.
Her mom, who has custody of her son Jace, allowed Jenelle to move in with her only so long as she doesn't see this dirtbag (who is not the daddy). Smart. Plus 9.
Of course, this being Jenelle, she rendezvous with Delp anyway. With cameras. So secretive, guys. Barb will never know. Minus 4 for the paradox of reality TV.
Jenelle to her mom: "You f--king idiot! You stupid bitch, I hate you." Plus 15.
Kieffer: "We deserve a chance to relax, as hard as our lives are." Dude, you're a lowlife miscreant who does nothing but relax, often in DOC facilities. Eh, Plus 7.
Kieffer again, about working hard and saving money with Jenelle: "I'mma keep stacking cake." I'mma give that Plus 6, even if pastry stacking can't pay much.
Teen Mom 2 Cast: Returning For New Season!
The full cast of MTV's Teen Mom 2 - Jenelle Evans, Leah Messer, Chelsea Houska and Kailyn Lowry - will be running it back for a second season starting December 6!
The second quartet to be featured MTV's 16 and Pregnant spinoff will mark the fourth Teen Mom season overall. The original cast starred on Seasons 1 and 3.
So what are the non-fab four up to these days? Let's catch up:
Chelsea Houska still hasn't graduated from high school, and her BFF and roommate, Megan Nelson, gave birth to her own baby, son Hunter, at age 19. Yay?
Kailyn Lowry has been going to school full-time (college, even ... take notes, Chelsea) while juggling two jobs and, of course, motherhood. Props, Kailyn. Major props.
Leah Messer divorced husband Corey Simms, the father of her twin girls, after just six months of marriage and their spectacular camouflage-themed wedding.
Jenelle Evans ... yeesh. This requires a separate article.
She broke up with Kieffer Delp, which was good, but the troubled teen mom has endured an array of legal problems (drugs, probation violations, beating some chick to a pulp) and her mother, Barbara, still has custody of son Jayce.
Basically, she's the Lindsay Lohan of Teen Mom.
