You can't rush perfection. Which is why Jersey Shore star Pauly D spends approximately 50 minutes each day (that's 25 minutes, times two) sculpting his gravity-defying 'do. But before you judge the guy, know this: in Seaside Heights, manscaping isn't an option, it's a way of life. (Or have you already forgotten about the boys' intensive GTL/shopping dates?)
So how do you score Pauly's slicked-back spikes? Just make sure you've got gobs of time -- and hair gel -- at your disposal. The NY Daily News caught up with the J. Shore jock Sunday night and got him to give them the blow-by-blow on his signature style. So wave your aerosol cans in the air, give it up for our mane man and find out how you, too, can have his seriously "high-volume hair."

No more breakups-to-makeups-to-breakups for Brody Jenner and Jayde Nicole. According to UsMagazine.com, the couple's finally closed the book on their tumultuous 15-month relationship. In fact, Jayde's already spreading the word (she told pals Brody's taking some "time to find himself" in Australia), PLUS she's been hitting the clubs, single-lady style, to let all the California cuties know she's back open for business.
Natch, in this day and age, the couple's split has already gotten the Twitter treatment. "Sometimes when you truly love someone you have to let them go," Jayde mused on Dec. 18, adding "I never really understood that quote until now." Meanwhile, Brody had an important message for his Twitter posse: "I decided to stay in Australia BY MYSELF!!!" he posted on Dec. 19. "Hahaha this is Crazy," he added. "Might just stay here and start a new life."
+ Is this finally it for Brody and Jayde? Tell us whether you think their breakup will stick, plus hear Kristin Cavallari's take on the whole B. Jayde sitch.

We just knew it was too good to be true. But how could it get by us that Snooki, The Situation and Pauly D were merely a trio of inspired British actors given the gig of the century? And look, they're already starting to take their fame for granted...

We thought nothing could shock us more than Tara and Jen Rade's smackdown (or Gary and Tara's public reconciliation) -- but that was before we sneak-previewed these steamy scenes from Saturday's Styl'D. Turns out, five junior assistants + one game of Spin The Bottle = THE most surprising (and saliva-filled!) moment of the season!

Most people don't just wake up, decide to quit their jobs and start living every day like it's their last. For the Buried Life boys, it took a lot of guts, a crapload of wigs and a bus with (almost) as much mileage on her as Jenna Jameson. Yep, livin' on the road ain't easy, 'specially when you've got to fit everything you own in an overhead compartment, and you barely have enough storage space for that gorge chinchilla scarf. So take a ride on the four-wheeled fun house (a.k.a. Dave, Jonnie, Ben and Duncan's home for the better part of a year) and find out how the guys went from Average Joes to high rollers with a little help from "Penelope."

Last week, we saw the Jersey Shore cast cozy up to Conan O'Brien, flex their muscles for Mike Tyson and mistake Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi for aging soul singer Lionel Richie on The Jay Leno Show. So how did they close out the weekend? By doing an unexpected guest spot on Saturday Night Live!
Okay, so it wasn't the REAL Snooki who stopped by the Weekend Update desk (the "princess of f***ing Poughkeepsie" was played by SNL's Bobby Moynihan), but the acrylic nails/chest hair/"Garfield" jokes still made for a sweet sketch. Check out Bobby's take on the uber-tan (and professionally poofed) boardwalk babe, plus give it up for her housemate, Mike "The Situation," and his amazing double-sided abs!
+ BONUS: How many sets of hands does it take to get the Jersey Shore look? Alyssa Milano's about to find out! Check out this FunnyOrDie vid and watch as a team of hair/makeup professionals give the actress (and outspoken J. Shore critic) the makeover of a lifetime.

We'll say one thing for The Hills: there's never any shortage of relationship drama. This season, we saw Kristin Cavallari date up a storm, watched Audrina Patridge sweat it out over JB and held our breath during Heidi Pratt's attempted sperm-jacking ... and all the while, we never ONCE caught a glimpse of Lo Bosworth's new boy (pro athlete Scott Hochstadt)!
So what gives? Well, it's not that we don't wanna see Lo breaking hearts on camera. (FYI, we'd LOVE that!) It's just that Lo Boz has always preferred to save all the mushy love stuff 'til after the working day is done. Well, up until now.
After years of dating in secret, Lo's finally had a change of heart! The Hillzie recently told Terra USA that she'd have no prob getting romanced on the air, just as soon as she finds a fella who doesn't mind all the exposure. "I would be comfortable to [show that side of my life] now," she said. "But the people that I've dated since I've been on the show are not."
Lo -- we think you and Scott look great together and we wish you all the best. But if that doesn't work out, could you maybe try and find someone who's a little less camera shy? You'd be doing us all a HUGE favor. Thanks, lady!

The Real World: D.C. roomies don't *officially* move into their house 'til next week, but we got a sneak peek of their accommodations, and trust us: this place makes 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. look like a fixer-upper. Natch, you've got your RW staples (i.e. shared bedrooms, giant fish tank and just-for-fun jacuzzi) but this house also boasts such amenities as the Oval Office(!) and the mysterious "love sac." Let the cast fill you in on the see-through showers, Lincoln bedroom and (sometimes coed) living arrangements, and find out who'll be the first to break in the hot tub when the season kicks off on Dec. 30!

We're not the only ones who thought Stephanie Pratt looked smokin' hot in Maxim.

Meanwhile, Paris Hilton's BFF wrong-texted 911 and The Ruins' Evan put not-being-a-jackhole on his to-do list! Find out what else you missed in Remote Control's latest MTV Twitter Roundup!
