The last major fight we saw Brad and Tori get into did NOT end well; in fact, when the then-engaged couple competed on "The Duel 2," Tori ended up giving back the ring! 'Course, now they're married, making sneaky moves on "The Challenge: Cutthroat" and running the Red Team, so no one can possibly tamper with the indestructible lovebirds this time around. Except each other...
Check out this sneak peek of next week's episode, where the couple gets into a fight in front of Paula. Brad's not happy about how the cards are unfolding and says, "I feel like I've been playing this game with my balls in her purse." Nice, Brad.

Last Friday, we were only able to play a :53 sample of Angelina Pivarnick's soon-to-be smash hit, "I'm Hot," for you, but today the full version was unleashed across the internets, and we're so psyched to share it with you. Despite popular opinion, we like it. Here's why:
1. IT LETS US IN
We knew that Angelina grew up in Staten Island, but we had no idea she lived on the rough streets! Turning up the speakers is like eavesdropping on therapy sessions.
She used to be the badass girl, yeah, from the hood,
But now she's bustin' all the doors down in Hollywood.
2. IT FILLS OUR HEART WITH HAPPY MEMORIES
Angelina's affinity for using words that rhyme with "hot" reminds us of a pivotal song from our childhood: "Top That," from "Teen Witch." (If only Angie could have benefited from that popularity spell!)
3. IT HIGHLIGHTS HER AWESOME ACCENT
If at any point in your life you forget what a distinct Staten Island accent sounds like, just play this jam. Consider it a cultural reference point.
... and now, the song:

This was a hectic week for rapping songbird Angelina Pivarnick. Not only did she release her debut single, "I'm Hot," but she did so on the heels of a very freakish episode with an insect. Just days earlier, the superstar awoke to find that a spider sat down beside her and bit her right in the face! She had a seriously bad reaction to it and went to the hospital for treatment (poor little bug, he probably just wanted some of her curds and whey protein).
Elsewhere, Snooki's been busy gearing up for her condom-sponsored birthday celebration, happening this weekend. JWOWW was consumed with trying to buy her bestie the perfect present (hey, check out our list of gifts if you're stumped!) and Vinny's been asking the Twitterverse for dating advice.

Attending back-to-back events is not for the fashionably sluggish. If you want to stand out then you have to bring it, and yesterday Whitney Port did just that. The former "City" star attended IN ADD MINUS' flagship store launch party wearing a head-to-toe look from the design house. The olive trousers, oversize blouse and cropped leather jacket combo was simply dynamite! So did she wear it to the next fete of the night? Nope! Whit headed up the coast to Malibu for US Weekly's Hot Hollywood party at The Colony and swapped her menswear-esque ensemble for a total glam-rock frock. The only thing that stayed the same was her sleek, straight hair (is she retiring the curls already?).
+ Which outfit do you like better: the casual slacks or the sparkly holiday dress? Sound off in the comments!

Tonight marked a major first for MMA fighter Jason "Mayhem" Miller and the rest of the "Bully Beatdown" crew. Never before has a chick jumped into the ring, but after meeting megabrat Amanda and her victim, Keiko, Mayhem knew he had to set the girl straight. He called in pro fighter Michelle Waterson (aka The Karate Hottie), who just so happens to have a penchant for knocking byotches out.
Check out Michelle Waterson's post-fight interview below, where she says that she's often underestimated because of her size and gender, then take the poll and let us know what you thought about the show's first girlfight.

To an outsider, the star of a high school football team is just a name emblazoned on the back of a nylon jersey, which is probably one of the reasons why Andrew Jenks wanted to trail a high-profile teen athlete. After meeting Abilene High School running back Herschel Sims, the "World of Jenks" star knew there was much more to this superjock than his ability to catch passes.
Check out a sneak peek of next week's episode, where Andrew stands up in the team locker room and delivers a speech to the players. He gives a nod to Herschel and confides to the squad that he feels like they're one big family.

If we were pre-teens undergraduate college students living in Rhode Island, catching wind that the almost-"Sexiest Man Alive on Facebook" and hometown hero Pauly D was on campus would've sent us into a fanatical Elvis-like frenzy. And last night at the University of Rhode Island, that's precisely what happened.
Shortly before 10:00 pm, rumors spread like wildfire that the state's hottest DJ was lampin' on campus. According to EOnline, somewhere between 300 and 400 students heard the news and stormed a dorm room (and later, a parking lot) in hopes of spotting Pauly. (Don't believe us? Watch the video.) The best part is that no one at the University even knew the guy was coming!
"We had four officers who went down for crowd control and noise control and to help Pauly D and his friend out of the area," spokesperson Linda Acciardo told E!. "There were no arrests, no one was injured, there was no damage to anything. Everything turned out to be just fine." Still, the university has asked that the dee-jay give them a heads up if he decides to come back in the future.
So just what the heck was he doing there? The article says he was visiting a friend. As far as we're concerned, that guy or girl just became the coolest person in school.

On last night's "Conan," the redheaded stepchild himself introduced a very special production assistant to the audience. His name is Chris Ultimo, and Coco is convinced the guy was "born to be on the 'Jersey Shore.'" In fact, he's so serious about getting Chris on the show that he's launched an online campaign to get fans to help out. Check out the instructions Conan and his crew posted on their Team Coco blog, and make sure to watch the segment that started all the madness.
1.) Click "Like" on the "Get Chris Ultimo on MTV's Jersey Shore" Facebook page.
2.) Tweet @MTV why you want to see Ultimo on Jersey Shore! Here are some possible reasons: He's "verified Baller status"; He's "got a case of the mad slickness"; He'll be your "Sherlock and take you Holmes with a dozen roses" (Also, because he's a romantic. Clearly.) Please use hashtag #ultimo4jerseyshore.
**When we alerted @MTV's Tweeter-in-Chief about the campaign, her entire day began to make sense: "OOOOHHHHH! That’s why I’m getting all of that stuff!"

Reports that police have charged Amber Portwood with domestic violence and battery have flooded the internet today, beginning with an article posted on HollywoodLife.com, which said that the young mom faces up to three years in jail and fines of up to $10,000.
Anderson, Indiana, police filed three criminal charges--two felonies and a misdemeanor--based on a seven-week investigation that was instigated by a "Teen Mom" episode which showed Amber hitting her baby's father, Gary Shirley, several times.
MTV's official statement regarding the matter is as follows: "We are cooperating with all parties and hope for a quick and fair resolution that allows everyone involved to move forward in a positive manner." Remote Control will continue to update you on the story as it develops.

Returning to work (or even school) after delivering a newborn seems like an extraordinarily tough choice. Parents have a hard time leaving their child's side for that many hours, not to mention the high cost of day care. On this week's episode of "16 and Pregnant," it was remarkable to see Markai gather up the strength to take on a job after giving birth to Za'Karia.
Check out this sneak peek of next week's episode, where teen mom Aubrey wants to get out there and work, but her fiancé, Brandon, doesn't think it's a great idea. Aubrey has bigger dreams for herself than to simply sit at home and raise a family, so hearing her husband-to-be say this causes a stir...
