			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/rc/2012/05/Screen-shot-2012-05-16-at-9.04.22-AM.png"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-122736" title="Screen shot 2012-05-16 at 9.04.22 AM" src="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/rc/2012/05/Screen-shot-2012-05-16-at-9.04.22-AM.png" alt="" width="495" height="360" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/pitbull/artist.jhtml">Pitbull</a> joined the "<a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/dance_crew/season_7/series.jhtml">ABDC</a>" crews onstage for Week 6, kicking off the show with a sizzling beach-themed opening number and unveiling the anticipated guest appearance of Season 6's <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/dance_crew/season_6/crew.jhtml?personalityId=14781">Iconic Boyz</a>! The chart-topper's platinum hit "International Love" inspired the episode's challenge, which tasked the top 5 teams with incorporating global dance moves into their routines, like Brazil's <em>Capoeira</em> and China's <em>Guanyin</em> (Dance of a Thousand Hands).</p>
<p>The house was abuzz with celebrity fans who couldn't get enough of the action--from buxom Playmates Ashley Hobbs, Hiromi Oshima and Jaclyn Swedberg to the swarthy "<a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/teen_wolf/series.jhtml">Teen Wolf</a>" leads <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/teen_wolf/cast_member.jhtml?personalityId=14908">Tyler Posey</a> and <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/teen_wolf/cast_member.jhtml?personalityId=14912">Colton Haynes</a>, and even towering teen star Zendaya (who surprised <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/dance_crew/season_7/crew.jhtml?personalityId=15402">8 Flavahz</a> and <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/dance_crew/season_7/crew.jhtml?personalityId=15412">RNG</a> with a visit backstage, causing a cacophony of squeals).</p>
<p><span id="more-122721"></span>With six weeks of intense physical effort in the bag, the top 5 crews <em>should</em> be showing some signs of exhaustion...but we certainly haven't seen any. For <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/dance_crew/season_7/crew.jhtml?personalityId=15409">Elektrolytes</a>' Nico Banuelos (pictured above, right), it's hard for his crew to even feel tired when the prospect of "ABDC" gold is so close: "We can definitely taste it, we believe it, we just have to make it happen."</p>
<p>Insider host Layla Kayleigh Covino made sure to check in with all the crews and their guests before the show's taping. Check out her <a href="http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/769654/born-ready-to-get-down.jhtml#id=1685216">interview</a>:</p>

<p>Jersey's <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/dance_crew/season_6/crew.jhtml?personalityId=14781">Iconic Boyz</a> made an indelible mark on "<a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/dance_crew/season_7/series.jhtml">ABDC</a>" history last season, as they were the first all-kid crew to join the cutthroat competition. Though small, they proved they had much heart, nabbing the attention of millions of fans across the country and inspiring new young crews (like this year's superstars <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/dance_crew/season_7/crew.jhtml?personalityId=15402">8 Flavahz</a> and <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/dance_crew/season_7/crew.jhtml?personalityId=15412">Rated Next Generation</a>) to follow their lead.</p>
<p>The Boyz, currently on tour with the NRG Dance Project, joined the top 5 crews on the "ABDC" stage this week to add extra pizzazz to the <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/pitbull/artist.jhtml">Pitbull</a>-driven, beach party showstopper. After the performance, they chatted with Mario Lopez and the audience, then waged war in one of the show's fiercest dance battles ever--against their new friends in 8 Flavahz (pictured above).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/rc/2012/05/fb3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-122716" title="fb3" src="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/rc/2012/05/fb3.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="340" /></a></p>
<p>There's a lot to deal with once a baby is born, such as middle of the night feedings, dirty diapers and the constant crying. But one of the biggest struggles of being a teen parent is the literal price tag. Taking care of a child isn't cheap; it can easily <a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/04/10/teen-parenting-costs/">cost more than $10,000</a> during the first year alone, and the expenses only grow from there.</p>
<p>Consider a couple like <a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/05/15/16-and-pregnant-poll-sarah-blake/">Sarah</a> and Blake. Neither of them finished high school, and he was only working part time. Sarah's mom tried to help out financially as best she could, but then Blake took off for his new shrimp boat job down South, and left Sarah and Baby Tinleigh behind with no clear <a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2011/07/06/teen-mom-child-support-faq-questions-answers/">child support plan</a> in place.<br />
<span id="more-122714"></span></p>
<p>This is often the case with teen parents. Only 12 percent have a formal child support agreement, another 12 percent have an informal agreement and the majority--75 percent--have no agreement whatsoever. Of those teen mothers that do have a formal child support arrangement, three quarters of them receive less than $250/month. Forty percent receive less than $125/month.</p>
<p>Think about it. If a baby costs $10,000 to take care of for one year, $250 per month is not going to cut it. It should be no surprise, then, that nearly half of teen mothers live below the poverty line and more than one-third receive food stamps. Being a teen is hard enough, as is being a parent, but being both of those things at the same time is a huge struggle, which is why <a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/05/16/16-and-pregnant-ready-to-have-sex/" target="_blank">waiting until you're ready</a> is the best choice for everyone.</p>

</a></p>
<p>Think your parents first got together in sweet, innocent "<a href="http://www.mtv.com/movies/movie/32075/dvds.jhtml">Sleepless in Seattle</a>" fashion? Not the case, say <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/savage_u/cast_member.jhtml?personalityId=15388">Dan</a> and <a title="Lauren Hutchinson Bio" href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/savage_u/cast_member.jhtml?personalityId=15389" target="_blank">Lauren</a> of "<a title="Savage U Home" href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/savage_u/series.jhtml" target="_blank">Savage U</a>." In fact, it's more likely they totally went to town long before the <a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2011/08/09/awkward-jenna-matty-relationship/">DTR</a> took place. (What, you don't like picturing Mom and Dad bumping uglies?)</p>
<p>The sex soothsayers swing an ax through the notion that any quality relationship should start in Prudeland in the below <a href="http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/765943/best-advice.jhtml#id=1684618">interview</a> clip. They note that college students shouldn't be ashamed if an eventual exclusive commitment starts with a hookup, and that they'll be holding their breath for awhile if they expect to meet a sig other strictly by means of accidental tong-bump at the grocery store's salad line. Ain't happnin', kids! Just ain't happnin'...</p>
<p><span id="more-122726"></span></p>
<p>+ Check out the video for some harsh dating truths, as well as Dan's and Lauren's urging for guys to cut the sh** with the double standard! If<em> he </em>can jump someone's bones and still be relationship-worthy, so can she.</p>

<p>At exactly 11:58 EST this morning, we logged onto <a href="http://www.vevo.com/">Vevo.com</a> and anxiously tapped our feet in anticipation of <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/pauly_d_project/cast_member.jhtml?personalityId=15319">Pauly D</a>'s new music video for "<a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/03/30/pauly-d-project-night-of-my-life-single/">Night Of My Life</a>"--the theme song to his hit MTV series, "<a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/pauly_d_project/series.jhtml">The Pauly D Project</a>"--which he announced would premiere on the site at noon. So, by the time you read this blog post, we will have already unplugged our headphones, cranked up the volume (sorry, coworkers trying to make important phone calls) and hit replay at least a dozen times--that's the sort of love we have for <a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/05/15/pauly-d-project-sneak-peek-g-unit-50-cent/" target="_blank">G-Unit's leading maestro</a>.</p>
<p>But enough from us. Check out the high-energy video below, which features PD's Rhode Island crew, and tell us what you think of it. The only thing that could have possibly made our viewing experience more pleasurable is if we had a <del>little</del> <a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/05/14/pauly-d-flavored-vodka-remix/">glass of Remix</a> to pound along with it.

<p><a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/05/15/16-and-pregnant-sabrina-bonus-scene/">Sabrina</a>'s story, like many of the other stories on "<a href="../category/shows/category/shows/16_and_pregnant/">16 and Pregnant</a>," touched on an important question: Why didn't she know the consequences of having <a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/05/01/16-and-pregnant-unprotected-sex/">unprotected sex</a>?</p>
<p>As with lots of other teens, Sabrina took her school's sex-ed class. Both her parents and the program told her that she wasn't ready to have sex, but they didn't explain <em>why</em><em></em>. Needless to say, Sabrina still thought she could handle it; only in hindsight did she feel differently.</p>
<p>So how do you know if you're truly ready? There's no one moment or specific sign, but it's never right to do it because someone else wants to, or if you feel pressured by your friends or think you're the only one who hasn't had it yet. (In reality, more than half of high school-aged teens are virgins.) Sex should be a decision made between you and your partner after you've talked about your feelings, considered the consequences and worked out how to protect yourselves from pregnancy.</p>
<p><span id="more-122693"></span></p>
<p>Remember, the only 100 percent guaranteed way to avoid pregnancy is to not have sex, but if you are going to have it, make sure you use protection carefully, consistently and correctly EVERY SINGLE TIME. It only takes one instance of unprotected sex, even if you're both virgins, to get pregnant. If your school or your parents aren't answering all your questions, there are great resources online, like <a href="http://www.stayteen.org">stayteen.org</a> and <a href="http://www.itsyoursexlife.org">itsyoursexlife.org</a>, where you can learn more about relationships and <a href="../2011/12/28/teen-mom-2-mirena-facts/">birth control</a>.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em><small>Vinny poses with his book, "Control The Crazy," at a recent signing in Hollywood.</small></em></p>
<p>For a young guy, the merits of celebrity might include free-flowing top shelf liquor, nights out with his favorite pro athletes and an omnipresent gaggle of girls. One-on-one guidance from his soul's hero, though? Not always a guarantee. As a nervous <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/jersey_shore/season_5/cast_member.jhtml?personalityId=15249">Vinny Guadagnino</a> of "<a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/jersey_shore/season_5/series.jhtml">Jersey Shore</a>" points out in his <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&amp;v=FrPzkhvNH9Y#!">YouTube interview</a> below, "I can go party with rappers every night, but not really...spiritual gurus."</p>
<p>The thinking-man's guido opens himself up to "Mind-body healing pioneer" Deepak Chopra on a New York City rooftop, and after Chopra shares some basic tips on achieving true calmness--sitting up straight, keeping legs uncrossed and leaving open hands faced upward--the two launch into a full-blown de-stressing exercise. The "<a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/04/10/interview-vinny-guadagnino-control-the-crazy/">Control The Crazy</a>" author is advised by the new-age guru to always maintain a sense of "peace, harmony, laughter and love," and eventually, the mantra will be hardwired into his brain and lower even the most out-of-whack heart rate. Dare we ask if it would function in the face of <a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/2012/04/19/jersey-shore-shark-attack-trailer/">killer sharks</a>...?</p>

<p>With respect to dating a friend's ex, most of us are generally taught it's a cut-and-dry "ABSO-F***ING-LUTELY NOT!" And, generally speaking, sex sensei <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/savage_u/cast_member.jhtml?personalityId=15388">Dan Savage</a> advises against it as well. But when the contentious topic was applied to life at Rhodes College, a gated liberal arts school with a tiny student population, the "<a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/savage_u/series.jhtml">Savage U</a>" conductor and some inquisitive sorority sisters agreed that it's simply unavoidable when you're surrounded by more trees than people.</p>
<p>The sophomore, junior and senior students that spoke with Dan on the quad shared horror stories of the trouble caused by dating, dancing with or even talking to guys that had previously gone out with a friend or just an acquaintance. Students at big schools have the luxury of space and new faces with which to heal post-breakup, they said, while they, themselves, face the constant risk of approaching someone who's already been marked, or even running into their own exes' new pursuits while at the same old party. Both, the sisters lamented, were nearly impossible to avoid.</p>
<p><span id="more-122507"></span></p>
<p>The solution, according to Dan? Talk things out with any stink eye-provider: "You walk up to that girl and say...let's not be d***s to each other.'" Easier said than done? Sure, but Dan relayed that the more the girls keep their lines of communication open, the easier it will be to navigate their campus dating scene without becoming social pariahs.</p>
<p>+ Tell us what you think--is getting with a friend's ex dependent upon the circumstance, or is it always a bad move?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/rc/2012/05/sabrina-mom.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-122634" title="sabrina mom" src="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/rc/2012/05/sabrina-mom.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="327" /></a></p>
<p>Tonight's episode of "<a href="../category/shows/16_and_pregnant/">16 and Pregnant</a>" picked up just as 17-year-old Sabrina left her hometown of Los Angeles to join her estranged mother, Amanda, in Tennessee. Her plan to live with her mom didn't quite pan out when she got there, however, as Amanda already had three other children and simply didn't have the room to take in Sabrina and her sister, who ended up moving in with their grandparents instead. The transition was tough for the expecting teen, but at least she and her mom were in the same state.</p>
<p>In this touching <a href="http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/769261/smart-enough-not-to-take-you-down-with-me.jhtml#id=1685139">bonus scene</a>, Amanda and Sabrina share a good cry when they discuss the years they spent on separate coasts. Amanda admits that she wasn't capable of being a good parent because of her drug habit and feels awful that she missed so much of her daughter's life. And Sabrina's particularly emotional because the whole reason she left her dad and baby's father behind in California was to be with her mother--now that's not even happening.</p>
