Vin happily poses with the possible presidential candidate.

He might only be 24 years old, but Vinny Guadagnino's wasted no time hobnobbing with various reality TV up-and-comers this year. The "Jersey Shore" castie and budding actor was spotted dining with Kris Humphries a number of months ago, and with Vin's upcoming spot on SyFy's "Jersey Shore Shark Attack," he has his eyes locked on bigger and brighter names. Names like Donald Trump evidently.

Just yesterday, Vinny tweeted a photo of himself hanging out with the mega-mogul and we immediately racked our brain trying to make sense of their matchy-matchy meet-and-greet. Perhaps The Donald was convincing the kid to join "Celebrity Apprentice," or maybe they were chatting about the Republican primary?

We know! Vin's sick of grooming his faux-hawk and needs some tips for a new 'do! That's gotta be it, right?

We've all been embarrassed by our parents at some point in our lives, but nothing quite takes the cake as much as Audrina Patridge's mother's infamous drunken rambling from last year (you know, the one where she told the paps that Lauren Conrad is a little fashion s***). Even though her mom's apologized and everyone seems to have moved on, she's still causing quite the stir in 'Drina's professional life.

Check out this sneak peek of the next episode of "Audrina," in which the former Hillzie gets an exciting invitation to meet with Donald Trump in New York. Her mom, who has evidently had a huge crush on him for eons, tags along to the appointment and ends up totally hitting on him. Not sure how 'Drina's dad's gonna feel about this...

Earlier today we learned that Donald Trump's people approached Pauly D to see if he'd be interested in joining the fourth season of "Celebrity Apprentice." According to TMZ, he turned down the offer because he'd rather focus on other projects. While the "Jersey Shore" star probably made the right decision, here are some business ventures we think he would've excelled at had he decided to be a part of Trump's show.

Venture: DJ Training School
Partner: Deadmau5
Why: The guy loves his custom-built, state-of-the-art DJ equipment, and if he and Deadmau5 taught peeps how to mix, scratch and bedazzle their own headphones, who knows what could happen? The next greatest Bat Mitzvah DJ could be one of their very own students!

Venture: Used High-End Car Dealership
Partner: Jay Leno
Why: Recently, Pauly told the late night host that prior to becoming a DJ, he worked his way up the ladder at Metro Honda in Rhode Island. And we all know Leno's got an auto obsession. There's a lot of money to be made slanging pre-owned Bentleys, just ask Mike "The Situation."

Venture: Blowout Bar
Partner: Justin Bieber
Why: After seeing the care and attention Pauly put into sculpting Michael Cera's hair, we knew his hands were made of gold. And who better to team up with than the King of Sideswept Bangs?

Venture: Butcher Franchise
Partner: Lady Gaga
Why: No one appreciates a good "sanguich" quite like Pauly, but how would this unlikely duo differentiate themselves from other meat shops? By using yesterday's cuts as wearable art! Who wouldn't want to support a business that recycles?

Aubrey O'Day might be a showstopping feline that's proud to show off her curves, but way back in high school she was insecure and had zero interest in boys or hookups. It's hard to imagine the former Danity Kane star hiding from the fellas, but 'tis true. "I'd get, like, creeped out if I even heard my friends talking about it, and all my friends were having sex," she admits on Saturday's episode of "When I Was 17."

Check out the sneak peek below and make sure you tune in to see what Donald Trump and Nick Cannon were like as teenagers (personally, we're dying to know what kind of 'do Trump rocked back in the day).

Celebrities get stopped on the street by their fans on a near-daily basis -- and City star Whitney Port is no exception. The weird part? A lot of the peeps who approach her seem to have her confused with someone else! Earlier this week, Whit told the UK's Daily Mail that she's been mistaken for both Ivanka Trump and Katherine Heigl in the past, so we thought we'd round up pics of all three girls and find out if you guys see the resemblance.

+ Think Whit might be secretly related to The Donald? Or is she one scalpel away from getting cast on Grey's Anatomy? Take the poll and tell us which of Whitney Port's fellow celebrities looks the most like her!

Angela and Vanessa Simmons see no shame in keeping Rev Run on speed dial, especially since they're clearly not the only Daddy’s Girls in Hollywood. In fact, this unusually close father-daughter dynamic exists in MANY famous fams.

Throughout the years, MTV in particular has dedicated lots of air time to those ladies who’d be lost in the world without their overly protective papas. Just take a look at our list of Top 10 Daddy’s Girls of All Time!

***

1) Jessica Simpson from Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica

From awkward comments about his daughter's Double Ds to intrusions on her alone time with helpless husband, Nick Lachey, Joe Simpson officially goes down in our record books as the MAC (Most Annoying and Controlling) Daddy. Still, Jessica never pointed a finger at her father as her storybook marriage and career began to publicly deteriorate.

2) Ashlee Simpson from The Ashlee Simpson Show

The MAC Daddy strikes again, though younger daughter Ashlee proved herself to be much more feisty than Jess when faced with her father's career ultimatums.

3) Kelly Osbourne from The Osbournes

On this hit MTV reality series, Sharon Osbourne played the Man of the House while Ozzy took to defending the kids for their consistently obnoxious behavior. Daughter Kelly could do no wrong — that is, til she started following in her father’s footsteps by doing drugs. A broken-hearted Ozzy was finally forced to dole out some tough love in order to save Kelly from self-destructing.

In case you hadn't heard, 50 Cent's got a new show kicking off next week called 50 Cent: The Money and The Power, and it's gonna be off the chains. And lest you thought this was gonna be another Apprentice, Fiddy's making it clear that he and The Donald have very different ideas when it comes to, well, everything. Like, for instance, their attitudes towards combovers (Donald's in favor!) rapping (Donald's against!) and, natch, running a business.

So sit back, grab your Vitamin Waters and get psyched up for 50's new show (It's sorta like From G's to Gents, only the opposite!) by re-watching the trailer and checking out our three all-time fave Fiddy videos. Then stay tuned for the premiere of The Money and The Power on Thursdsay, November 6th at 10pm. In our (mostly) unbiased opinion, it's the best thing that's ever been shot.

Except, of course, for 50 Cent...

+ Stay tuned for two more videos, after the jump!

There's a new Donald Trump in town, and this rap superstar-turned-mogul has more hair, better catch-phrases and a cool $100K on the line. But don't confuse Fiddy's search for a protege with that other business-themed reality show. "I'm not looking for some half-assed apprentice," Fiddy intones in the trailer for his new show, 50 Cent: The Money and The Power.

And he's definitely not looking for someone who can't take constructive (or non-constructive) criticism, either. To get the benefit of 50's entrepreneurial wisdom -- and, of course, the prize-money -- these 14 contestants had better be able to take an insult (i.e. "You're like a poor man's Lil' Kim") and step up to every single challenge...even those involving chain-gangs.

Otherwise? We have a feeling they'll be dissed and dismissed faster than you can say "Get the f--- outta here."

• Until now, Celebrity Apprentice has always been sort of a guilty pleasure. But Donald Trump's stepped it up this year by getting hold of some legitimate (albeit minor) celebrities. Joan Rivers...Dennis Rodman...Tom Green?? Holy crap, we've actually heard of these people! (TMZ)

• Opera-singing insurance agent Neal E. Boyd proves America really does have talent. (Usmagazine.com)

• Has Project Runway gotten cattier? We're not sure, but we're kinda loving how Nina Garcia dissed Kenley's dress by saying: "It looks like a reptile, but not in a cool way." (E! Online)

• You don't have to go on a gay cruise to catch Rosie O'Donnell's act anymore - the former View costar just inked a deal to host a one-night only NBC variety show. (Hollywood Reporter)

• Apparently, Aussies don't share our Brenda/Kelly nostalgia. 90210 has been yanked down under after only four measly episodes. (Perez Hilton)

VMAs host Russell Brand has a new show on Comedy Central! Which still doesn't explain why he's so interested in scoring Sarah Silverman's breast milk. (The Sun - UK)
