That's What You Said...About Whether Hurricane Nia Had Reason To Hit

Posted 6/7/13 4:13 pm EST by in Real World, Real World Portland, Top TV Shows

Every Friday we thumb through your comments from the most talked-about post of the week and highlight each side of the argument. Check out the latest That's What You Said below and make sure to share your own opinion!

WhatYouSaidNia

As soon as Johnny tossed the contents of an energy drink Nia's way and we saw her expression change from playful to nearly possessed, we knew the moment had finally arrived. The "Real World" fight we'd been eagerly awaiting all season long erupted, and by the time the dust had cleared, the two opponents, as well as Averey, were left bruised, bloodied and battered. The worst part? The war's not even over.

When the show's penultimate episode ended, fans turned to Remote Control and sounded off like crazy on the record-book brawl. Take a look at what some had to say about who's to blame, keep the conversation going in the comments and be sure to see how this Portland saga wraps up on Wednesday at 10/9c!

"[Nia] is a dramatic, self-absorbed princess who is an absolute horror of a human being. She should be the one who is thrown off the show." -- Baby Cakes

"Averey should have stayed out of it and let Johnny and Nia makes fools out of themselves on their own. Or, instead of trying to attack Nia, Averey should have tried to diffuse the situation. She added fuel to the fire." -- Sasha

Kick-Ass Chick Of The Week: British Slam Poet Combats Xenophobia With Some Cutting Words

Posted 6/7/13 2:53 pm EST by in Girl Code, Top TV Shows

Among the mighty feats that MTV's "Girl Code" accomplishes is empowering its viewers to laugh off their insecurities and embrace their inner superstar. There's a kick-ass chick in all of us, so each week, we're shining the spotlight on one newsworthy woman who deserves a standing ovation. And some cake. Cake is good. Take a look at our latest pick!

Hollie McNish

Hollie McNish breaks down immigration reform with rhymes.

A life as a public representative isn't for everyone, but that doesn't mean those who exist outside of government offices don't have a stake in policy, too. British slam poet Hollie McNish, who won the 2009 United Kingdom Slam Championships, is an artist who's especially invested in politics, and a two-minute poem she drafted is proof that the pen is, indeed, mightier than the sword.

Addressing the racism and xenophobia she sees in her native Britain, Hollie's poem, "Mathematics," fights against the notion that immigrants are implicitly guilty of stealing jobs, houses or other resources away from the population.

"Man, I am sick of crappy mathematics, 'cuz I love a bit of sums. I spent three years into economics and I geek out over calculus. And when I meet these paper claims that one of every new that came takes away one's daily wage, I desperately want to scream, 'Your maths is stuck in primary,'" Hollie rhymes.

Snooki Manages To Take A Sexy Selfie In An Airplane Bathroom [Photo]

Posted 6/7/13 1:06 pm EST by in Jersey Shore, Snooki & JWOWW, Top TV Shows

Bathroom

Snooki's interpretation of the Mile-High Club calls for only her sexy self.

Snooki's no stranger to seizing a good selfie opportunity, and she just widened her portfolio with a sultry bathroom shot snapped while en route to Miami. Because who needs an audio book when you've got an iPhone? We see a social media trend in the making...

"Photo shoot in the bathroom, Hayyyy vintage clip on earrings," Snooks tweeted from the clouds this morning while getting her Tyra Banks on beside a dispenser of barf bags. We usually look like this while in flight, so the fact that she's able to project any semblance of sexiness is rather remarkable. Such impressive balance, as well -- those push-ups in heels must be paying off! The situps sure are...

Pilot, give this girl a pair of wings! And fly safely -- she's precious cargo!

'Real World' Sneak Peek: Hurricane Nia Plots To Knock The Wind Out Of Jordan

Posted 6/7/13 12:04 pm EST by in Real World, Real World Portland, Top TV Shows

FinaleSneak

If you think you see a sliver of sunlight on the horizon, you must be confused -- yes, Hurricane Nia is in a lull period, but that just means we're in the eye of the storm. In this sneak peek of Wednesday's "Real World: Portland" finale, Nia breaks down her brutal fight with Johnny and Averey to Dom, taking no accountability whatsoever. Instead, she redirects her weather pattern toward...Jordan?

Nia says she can identify with Dom, a tough trainer, because of their shared experiences and hardships, and as soon as she sees him react angrily to news that Jordan tried to stop the fight by restraining Nia, she commits to making her roommate's life hell. "I already told him, like, 'You were dead two weeks ago," she tells Dom, who says there's no way he could live with himself if he didn't intervene and set Jordan straight. Jordan and Nia certainly have a shaky past, but is he really to blame for any of this battle?

Check out the video, and be sure to tune in to the "Real World" finale Wednesday at 10/9c, immediately followed by the reunion special!

MTV Twitter Roundup: Molly Tarlov Makes A Convincing Tenant Of Barbie's Dream House

Posted 6/7/13 11:10 am EST by in Awkward, Top TV Shows

MollyDoll

Molly Tarlov and friends, off to lunch with Skipper.

Young girls would do just about anything to live in a real-life Barbie Dream House, but it seems Molly Tarlov has taken the fantasy to the next level. Though her "Awkward" character Sadie Saxton is reliably preppy, Molly experimented with a more labor-intensive look yesterday that had us wondering if a pink Power Wheels Jeep was waiting in the wings. THOSE PURPLE EYES WILL HAUNT US FOREVER.

Elsewhere on MTV-centric social media this week, Beau Mirchoff celebrated the merits of being a man, but Kailyn Lowry decried the gender's hairier qualities. And though Anastasia of "Real World: Portland" seemed sincere about her feelings toward Wednesday night's epic throwdown, Roger Mathews continued f***ing with his height-challenged pal Jionni LaValle.

Check out what some of MTV's best and brightest had to say on Twitter this week!

Riff Raff's Word Of The Day: Celerity (suh-LAIR-ih-tee)

Posted 6/7/13 10:00 am EST by in From G's to Gents, Top TV Shows

riff_raff_library_001

With a Skrillex collabo and studio debut said to feature hip-hop heavyweights such as Drake, Wiz Khalifa and Mac Miller both in the works, as well as scene-stealing guests stints on "Ridiculousness" and "One Life to Live" now under his belt, Mad Decent music artist and former "From G's to Gents" contestant Riff Raff is a neon-bright star on the rise, already achieving some iconic status for his outrageous fashion sense and lyrical wizardry. (Fittingly, he's named his upcoming album "Neon Icon.")

There's a lot to be learned from Riff Raff, which is why he's serving as Remote Control's honorary academic for the entire month of June, doling out definitions of big words each day. Today's linguistic lesson focuses on the word "celerity" -- take a look at the video, and follow the social media titan's musings on Twitter.

MORE WORDS OF THE DAY
June 3, 2013: peccadillo
June 4, 2013: eminence
June 5, 2013: abet
June 6, 20013: abstruse

'Fu Manchu, God Bless You!' And Other Winning 'Show With Vinny' Quotes

Posted 6/6/13 10:30 pm EST by in The Show with Vinny, Top TV Shows

VinnyRed

Hosting an iconic Playboy model like Jenny McCarthy is one thing, but when your verifiable celebrity crush swings by your house for coffee and dessert, that just takes the cake. On tonight's "Show with Vinny," a romantic prophecy was fulfilled when R&B heavy-hitter Ciara stopped by the Guadagnino abode to chat with Vinny about upcoming projects and bask in the glow of his many compliments. The visit ended with dance moves, but not at the expense of conversation. Check out some of the best quotes from tonight's episode, which also featured some humdingers from Redfoo of LMFAO, who taught the whole family how to best party rock.

"What does that stand for?" -- Paola
Paola had no idea that asking what LMFAO stood for would return such vulgarity. To be fair, though, it was Nino -- not Redfoo -- who first verbalized the F-bomb.

"Feel the Foo-ness!" -- Red Foo
As the Guadagninos were looking a little too clean-cut for the eccentric Redfoo, he decided to outfit them in wigs that perfectly matched his own wild mane.

Jeremy Calvert Tries Wife Leah's Clothes On For Size [Photo]

Posted 6/6/13 5:12 pm EST by in Teen Mom 2, Top TV Shows

Jeremy Calvert

Dude looks like a lady.

Sharing a house with four girls has brought Jeremy Calvert deeply in touch with his feminine side. Earlier this week, the new dad was caught on camera wearing one of his wife's tops while folding laundry, and as revenge for his nosy online habits, Leah posted the pic to their joint Facebook page. "For all the times Jeremy hacked my stuff!" the "Teen Mom 2" cast member wrote.

Sadly, it looks like Jeremy's dreams of being a bearded lady may have to be put on hold, because while the blue off-the-shoulder number may accent his muscular torso (looks like someone's been hitting the gym!), it's probably not appropriate for work. Too much skin!

On another note: While it's great to see Jeremy try to better understand his wife -- you never fully understand someone until you walk a mile in their shoes, or fold clothes in their shirt -- she might not be too thrilled if he starts borrowing her jewelry. Stick to flannels and baseball caps, Jer.

This Week's Vinny Skinny: Baby Girls For Kimye And Channing Tatum, New Nose For Amanda Bynes [Video]

Posted 6/6/13 5:00 pm EST by in The Show with Vinny, Top TV Shows

kimye_tatum

There's never any shortage of celebrity news or blogs that cover celebrity news, but the one thing Remote Control can offer that no other website can is an anchor who still lives at home with his mother (if she was our mother, we'd never move out, either). This week's Vinny Skinny features sugar and spice and everything nice. Not only did Channing Tatum's wife, Jenna, give birth to a baby girl, Kimye finally revealed the sex of their bun in the oven: also a girl! And it wouldn't be a proper Skinny without a headline mentioning Amanda Bynes. The troubled starlet reportedly followed through with that nose job she'd been thinking tweeting about last week, and said there are even more to come.

'Manda, it's time to cool it. Go home to your parents, take a long nap in your childhood bedroom and stop messing with your face. We're pulling for you here at Remote Control.

Check out the latest Skinny below, and, of course, don't forget to tune in tonight at 10/9c for a new episode of "The Show with Vinny," featuring Red Foo and Ciara as the Guadagnino Family's house guests.
