Watching MTV

Did you all catch that jaw-dropping countdown of the most expensive “Cribs” MTV has ever shown? Well, it made me hate my house for sure. I’ll spare you the long list and cut to the chase: the most expensive house is worth $150 million dollars. Check out the video here

Can you believe it!? The most expensive crib isn’t even owned by a visible celebrity! To find out who the HELL this guy is (and how he made so much money), click “read the rest of this entry.”

I got a great response to “The Hills” parody I posted yesterday, so today you get to laugh at Ashton Kutcher and “Punk’d.” This clip is from SNL, and it really captures Ashton’s idiotic mannerisms perfectly:

Haha, “I’M AWESOME!” To see Justin Timberlake get Punk’d FOR REAL, watch the video after the jump (for those of you new to WatchingMTV.com, click “read the rest of this entry”).

It’s MadTV! Usually I find this program childish and humorless, but they sure struck a chord with their parody of “The Hills”! The impression of LC is uncanny! Check it out:

Hoooray for the weekend! Before you go to the beach, or the movies, or anywhere, check out WatchingMTV.com. Tomorrow…

• Surprising news about “Newlyweds.” You remember, that old show in which Jessica Simpson confused tuna for chicken.

Eww!! Watch this disgusting clip of a contestant PEEING during her date on “Next!”

Thank God this was put on YouTube. Grosser than gross.

Remember how Sarah Silverman mocked Paris Hilton at the MTV Movie Awards? If not, Silverman poked fun at Paris’s impending jail stint. Here’s what she said:

She is totally going to get special treatment. As a matter of fact, I heard that to make her feel more comfortable in prison, the guards are going to paint the bars to look like penises.

Well, it turns out the Sarah regrets making the joke. Apparently Sarah did not realize that cameras would be present to record every angle of Paris’s reaction. This is what Sarah is now saying:

I thought, ’she’s got to know there’s going to be a joke about her,’ so I went for it. But then I looked down and saw a man in her face with a camera. I was there to be funny and I was, but that doesn’t mean I can’t feel bad about it.

Boooo! I’d much prefer that Sarah stick to her guns, even though she obviously hurt Paris. It was a joke and everyone realizes that. To see video of the now infamous attack, click “read the rest of this entry.”

The VMAs will be hitting TV screens this September. Perez Hilton is reporting that, as a surprise at this year’s show held in Las Vegas, Britney Spears will be performing a new single. Here’s what he had to say:

Word on the street is that Britney Spears is rehearsing to make her big comeback at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas this September. The VMAs will be held this year at the Palms Hotel, which is owned by the Maloof brothers - close personal friends of the former pop star. Britney has already completed several tracks and is said to be ‘itching’ to show one off.

Personally, I’d love to see Britney Spears (try to) get back in the game–and what better place to do it than the VMAs? Britney already has a history of stirring up controversy at the Video Music Awards, so a disastrous comeback performance seems only natural.

It feels like Christmas! Here’s the awesome new trailer for next season:

Alright, let’s discuss. First off, there was someone swimming in the fish tank during the first 5 seconds of the trailer. Ew. Next, Dunbar feels threatened by KellyAnne’s advances because he has a girlfriend back home. Why do people always enter “The Real World” with significant others? It’s a recipe for disaster!

Anyway, isn’t Cohutta much more… “southern” than you thought he’d be? Such a thick accent, such a large cowboy hat. This one will be fun to see.

Now here’s where the big drama begins. KellyAnne seems to provoke Parisa, who in turn provokes KellyAnne, who in turn devises a plan to make Parisa leave? Confusing! But then KellyAnne, completely wasted off her ass, grumbles, “THEY. DON’T. LIKE. YOU.”

I can’t wait!! To read what MTV has to say about this upcoming season, click “read the rest of this entry.”

As the credits rolled on a “My Super Sweet 16 Remix” yesterday, MTV aired the video for Sean Kingston’s song “Beautiful Girls.” What viewers quickly realized, however, was that the song appeared severely edited and censored. Since this video’s airdate on July 3, 2007, many fans have been wondering why the song has been so heavily edited. Below is the CENSORED video for “Beautiful Girls,” exclusively from WatchingMTV.com.

The song’s normal lyrics go like this:

You’re way too beautiful girl
That’s why it’ll never work
You’ll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it’s over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They’ll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it’s over

In the edited version, the word “suicidal” is completely cut out. This word is the cornerstone of the song, so the edit job truly changes the song’s core. What do you think: is the edit fair, or is it a faulty act of censorship?

I thought it would be fun to get back to MTV’s roots and, you know, talk about music. (It’s a slow news day!) Below is a sweet video for the song “Australia,” by The Shins.

You heard me, Parisa is your new fave. Not only is she a smart cookie (educated in finance and international relations, career aspirations as an investment banker), but this girl can sing. Check it out:

Damn! Who the hell even cares who won the basketball game, the performance alone would be worth going. Team Parisa!
