Justin Bieber And Manager Study Cautionary Tales Of Teen Stars
Scooter Braun says the secret to Bieber's longevity will be his personal life.

After picking up four trophies at the American Music Awards, Justin Bieber was back in Canada on Monday night, playing a sold-out show at Montreal's Centre Bell. The 16-year-old hasn't been back in his native country much since his latest tour kicked off this summer. And, according to Bieber's manager, that constant traveling is hard on his family.
"I think his dad misses him a lot because he doesn't get to see Justin as much," Scooter Braun told The Hollywood Reporter of his client, who was recently announced as one of Barbara Walters' "10 Most Fascinating People of 2010." "I think his mother — she and I have talked about this — at times, she struggles with how protective we have to be of him."
At the same time, though, Bieber's mom is thankful that she can be protective of him while they're on the road. "[S]he feels safer with him living this life because it's structured, and we know where he is all the time," Braun said. "She feels that if they were still in Stratford, Ontario, he'd be getting himself into a lot of trouble."
Instead, the Biebs is in the midst of a 90-show international tour that weaves through North America before jumping over to the U.K. next year. And he has no plans to slow down anytime soon. Pop-culture history is littered with epic flameouts, artists who rose to fame and quickly disappeared. But Bieber is so committed to avoiding such a fate, Braun said, he researches folks who fall into the "Where are they now?" category.
"Justin doesn't study the people who made it," Braun said. "He studies the people who haven't. He hears all the naysayers about how he's going to disappear, so he likes to look up people who used to be the so-called Justin Biebers before him and didn't go anywhere. He wants to see why they didn't go anywhere. The general feeling we get is that it had nothing to do with their talent and everything to do with their personal life. Like the kids fall into drugs and destroy their own trajectory."

Lady Gaga Says Born This Way Is Nearly Finished, 'Almost Perfect'
'It won't be much longer, it's almost perfect. But I (we) don't want almost,' Gaga tweets about forthcoming album.
By James Montgomery

By now, you are probably aware that Lady Gaga's upcoming Born This Way album is "incredible," "shocking," "bold and beautiful," "utter liberation," and, of course, "crazy amazing."
But what you might not have known is that it is finally, totally, completely finished. Almost.
That's according to Gaga herself, who took to her Twitter account on Wednesday to announce that she's nearly wrapped production on Born, and that her little monsters' long wait is just about over. Unless she's not satisfied with every last detail, of course.
"Endless melodies, hooks [and] poetry sledge-hammering my skull," she tweeted. "It won't be much longer, it's almost perfect. But I (we) don't want almost."
Of course, there's still no release date (tentative or otherwise) for Born This Way, though Gaga has been playing songs from the album — like "You And I" and "Living on the Radio" — since the summer, and has discussed the project at length during her Monster Ball performances. In September, at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards, she announced the title of the album after winning Video of the Year.
Those who have heard Born This Way can't seem to stop gushing over it. On Tuesday, MTV News caught up with Gaga's label boss, Akon, who said the album "is definitely ... a notch up" from her previous work, and that she's "taking things to the next level."
Gaga's manager, Troy Carter, said that he's just starting to play music from Born for Interscope Records, and that the songs on the album are "incredible." He also hinted that the album would be "coming soon."

Justin Bieber's My Worlds Acoustic: A Cheat Sheet
Get the scoop on the singer's latest album, out Black Friday.
By Jocelyn Vena

On Black Friday, the year's busiest shopping day by far, Justin Bieber will release his album, My Worlds Acoustic. It will feature one new track, "Pray," as well as acoustic reinterpretations of some of Bieber's biggest songs from his first two LPs, My World and My World 2.0.
While fans have gotten the chance to hear "Pray" as well as acoustic teases of "Favorite Girl" (when he stopped by Ryan Seacrest's radio show this month) and "Never Say Never," his musical director, Dan Kanter, tweeted what the rest of the album will sound like, saying, "Loving the percussion... Cajones and congas! Definitely an influence from our travels around the world!"
As for "Pray," Bieber has said he was inspired by a track from the King of Pop himself. "It's a very uplifting song, very motivational," he said. "It definitely comes from the heart. It's very beautiful. I definitely thought of Michael [Jackson's] 'Man in the Mirror' when I was writing it."
The album, which also features "One Time," "Baby," "One Less Lonely Girl, "Down to Earth," "U Smile," "Stuck in the Moment" and "That Should Be Me," was recorded because Bieber wanted to silence his critics. "I really think that I did an acoustic album because there's a lot of haters out there that say, 'Justin Bieber can't sing. His voice is all Auto-Tuned,' " he said. "And there's a lot with production, it kind of drowns out your voice, and it takes away from the singer, over the synths and everything.
"I think kind of stripping it down," he added, "and having it kind of really mellow and being able to hear my voice is why I wanted to do it."
Will you be picking up Bieber's latest on Black Friday? Let us know in the comments!

Love and Other Drugs Movie Preview
Which movies are fun for the whole family and which ones are treats just for you? Find out!
In theaters now...
Love and Other Drugs
Short Story:
Pharmaceutical sales rep Jamie Randall (Jake Gyllenhaal) is a winner in the bedroom and in the office, until, one day, he meets his match in the carefree Maggie Murdock(Anne Hathaway). Neither one wants to be bogged down by romance. Ironically, what they don't want turns out to be something they both can't resist: Love. Based on Jamie Reidy's memoir "Hard Sell: The Evolution of a Viagra Salesman."
What They're Saying:
"Finally, after years of suffering through Hollywood's predictable pap, sentimental mush, boring bromances and mean girl clichés, comes a love story that is actually worth falling for..." - Los Angeles Times
"Some of the heart we hope for in a good romance, those lump-in-the-throat moments, may be missing. But Gyllenhaal and Hathaway have great chemistry." - Orlando Sentinel
Good For Kids?
There's a lot of lovin' in this flick; too much for the kids to handle.
Burlesque
Short Story:
Christina Aguilera plays a small-town girl (Ali) who, after venturing to Los Angeles, lands a waitressing gig at a local theater.
The Burlesque Lounge, although known for it's over-the-top performances, has seen better days. But as Tess (Cher), a retired dancer and owner of the venue, struggles to keep things afloat, Ali finds her niche in the close-knit Burlesque community. Ali soon discovers that her talents stretch much further than the bar, and with a push from her new friends, she takes to the stage. Surprisingly, the burlesque novice opens to rave reviews -- and cutthroat criticism.
What They're Saying:
"It's entertaining enough, like watching a celebrity workout film with a plot. But never once is it believable. Really, the movie should last 30 seconds." - Boston Globe
"It's more hallucination than story, but hey, If you think of it as a slightly deranged long music video divathon it can be a lot of fun." - Chicago Sun-Times
Good For Kids?
Kids will be entranced by the singing and choreography, even if the plot sails right over their heads.
Tangled
Short Story:
Tangled is a comical take on the classic kids' tale, "Rapunzel." When the kingdom's most wanted bandit Flynn Rider (Zachary Levi) hides out in a mysterious tower, he's taken hostage by Rapunzel (Mandy Moore), a captive beauty who just so happens to have 70 feet of magical, golden hair. The two soon strike up an unlikely alliance that embarks them on an adventure-filled journey.
What They're Saying:
"Tangled braids strands of traditional storytelling and a contemporary sensibility with stylish if predictable results." - USA Today
"A Rapunzel retelling could have become just a retread of the studio's past princess tales, but this genuinely charming, chintz-free story does something new: It takes the time to chill out, as its heroine might say." - New York Daily News
Good For Kids?
Who could resist this comical take on a classic children's book?
Faster
Short Story:
Ewan McGregor narrates this documentary about the MotoGP Championship and the fast-paced world of Motocross.
What They're Saying:
"If you consider hurtling along at insane speeds inches from the asphalt to be a tad eccentric, the riders of MotoGP may just fit the bill." - Los Angeles Times
"Problem is, after an hour and a half of Faster, I still don't get motor sports." - Denver Post
Good For Kids?
This documentary may lose your child's interest Faster than you can blink.
In case you missed...
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I
Short Story:
Harry, Ron, and Hermione team up once again in this seventh installment of the Harry Potter series. Determined to defeat the evil Lord Voldemort, Harry must win the race against time and destroy the Horcruxes -- that is, if he can find them.
What They're Saying:
"Lumbering and gripping by turns, and suffused with a profound sense of solitude and loss." - Variety
"The story-within-the-story regarding the deathly hallows is visualized by way of shadow-puppet style animation, and the effect is quite beautiful." - Chicago Tribune
Good For Kids?
Magic and Hogwarts make for the perfect kiddy concoction.
The Next Three Days
Short Story:
Russell Crowe stars in this drama, which follows a husband and wife as their life is flipped upside-down when the wife is accused of murder.
What They're Saying:
"The Next Three Days refuses to puff up its action with message-movie sermonizing." - Slant Magazine
"What was briskly diverting in the original has been rather laboriously overworked, and the film's attempt to draw out the moral stakes never addresses the material's basic, surface-level implausibility." - Variety
Good For Kids?
Although full of suspense, The Next Three Days does not contain the sort of adventure that keeps a child occupied.

Mila Kunis "Looked Disgusting" After Losing 20 Pounds
Mila Kunis had to drop a whole lot of weight for her newest role -- and after dieting down to 95 pounds, she had seriously mixed feelings about her body.
To play a professional ballerina in Black Swan, Kunis had to mimic a real dancer's tiny physique. The already-skinny actress spent five months losing 20 pounds for the role. When she looked in the mirror, she said, she didn't recognize herself.
"I had no shape, no boobs, no a**. All you saw was bone," Kunis, 27, tells E!. "I was like, this looks gross."
While Kunis swears she looked "like Gollum from Lord of the Rings" in person, she was shocked to realize that her skinny figure looked fantastic on film.
"In real life, it looked disgusting. But in photographs and on film, it looked amazing," she admits. Seeing how normal her unhealthy figure looked onscreen, Kunis says she had a new understanding of "why this industry is so f***ed up."
At least Kunis had a legitimate reason for losing so much weight: Ballerinas are required to be a very specific body type, one that's unnatural for most women. (As a result, eating disorders are common in the world of professional ballet.) Her costar Natalie Portman also dropped a lot of weight; director Darren Aronofsky literally asked her to lose as much as she could without getting sick. That's a pretty serious request, and both actresses say that they made sure to stay as healthy as possible on their very restricted diets.Still, Kunis said, the people close to her got worried about her extreme new body.
"My mom freaked out," Kunis says. "Everybody started panicking. She was like, 'You have to promise this isn't going to affect you.'"
Just as she promised her mother, Mila went back up to her normal weight after the shoot was over. So how long did it take her gain back the pounds she spent five months losing? She tells E! that it all came back in five days.
So next time you find yourself comparing your body to some movie star, just remember what kind of crazy diet roller-coaster they have to go through!

Jessica Simpson, Rihanna, Mandy Moore: Babies Can Wait!
Jessica Simpson, Mandy Moore and Rihanna are all planning on becoming moms -- but only when the time is right! In three separate interviews this week, the pop stars all expressed their desire to have kids in the not-too-distant future.
Jessica Simpson, 30, tells Access Hollywood that she can "definitely see myself having a family" with new fiance Eric Johnson, but that they "really haven't talked much about it" yet.
Mandy Moore, 26 -- who lends her voice to the princess in the new Disney film Tangled -- tells E! that she "will definitely have a family" with rocker husband Ryan Adams.
Rihanna, 22, has been dating Dodgers player Matt Kemp since January, and she tells Interview Magazine that she'll have a baby whenever it feels right: "It could be a year from now. It could be ten years from now."
Why all the talk about babies this week? Maybe it has something to do with fellow pop princess Pink, 31, announcing that she and hubby Carey Hart are expecting. What's cool, though, is that all these musicians plan to have babies -- but none of them feel pressured to choose between baby and career. That must be a sign of progress, right?
Those three ladies would do well to take a cue from Pink, who's already got a plan in motion: she tells the Associated Press that "as soon as the baby can say 'mama,' I'm going on the road. We are going to be a traveling family gypsy band with garlands in our hair." Sounds like a pretty amazing childhood to us!
Do you think women are waiting longer to have kids than they used to? Chime in below!

Usher Most Admires Justin Bieber's 'Excitement And Innocence'
Bieber's mentor tells MTV News the teen sensation has 'so much more in store for the future.'
By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Tim Kash

With so much accomplished in 2010, Justin Bieber has certainly set the bar high for 2011. But the teen singer is already gearing up for next year. Bieber will not only release his much-anticipated 3-D flick, "Never Say Never", but he has also teased that he'd like to release an album of all-new material sometime later next year.
His mentor, Usher, thinks that at this point, the sky's the limit.
"As far as music and entertainment, that's the beginning," Usher told MTV News at Sunday's AMAs, where Bieber performed and took home four awards.
"There's so much more in store for the future, or at least there's a ton of things we can do and will, and with the support of his fans who will continue to just grow and grow and grow."
At 16, Bieber has accomplished what few manage with many more years in the music business, but Usher said he wants to ensure that Bieber doesn't stop enjoying it all as his popularity continues to grow and his schedule gets busier.
Asked what he admires most about Justin, Usher said, "His excitement and innocence in it. And I don't mean that in a light way because I think that he's absolutely enjoying every moment of it, as any young man his age would, but in a different way because [of] the hard work that has gone in and led to the dream that has become a reality. And every time you have an opportunity do something incredible, I tell him to do his best and be conscious that what you're doing today should last forever and eternity."

Usher Shows Off Fancy Footwork At AMAs
Swedish House Mafia join Ush for an electronic mash-up.

Usher's protégé, Justin Bieber, scored more hardware than the "OMG" singer on Sunday night (November 21) at the 2010 American Music Awards, but the veteran superstar was far from a step behind the teen sensation.
With his fleet footwork, Usher teamed up with dance-world superstars Swedish House Mafia to ignite the stage with a mash-up of his "DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love" and their "Miami 2 Ibiza" and "One" that certainly qualified as one of the evening's high points. Decked out in black military garb and sporting a starter mohawk, Usher partied and pranced around onstage to his club-happy single.
"I feel like a zombie gone back to life," Usher sang. "Hands up, and suddenly we all got our hands up/ No control of my body/ Ain't I seen you before?/ I think I remember those eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes."
Usher and his gang of dancers showed off moves that would have tripped up teen stars. At one point, his backup dancers launched him into the air and Usher landed and jumped right into his next step.
A full explosion followed behind him and he carried the energy into the hook.
" 'Cause baby tonight, the DJ got us falling in love again," he crooned. "Yeah, baby tonight/ The DJ got us falling in love again/ So dance, dance, like it's the last, last night of your life, life."
After picking up an award earlier in the evening, Usher acknowledged his veteran status. The 32-year-old thanked his supporters, plugged his OMG Tour with Trey Songz and shouted out longtime fans. "I been doing this 18 years," he said.

Usher Remembers Being A 'Pizza Face' On 'When I Was 17'
'I had really, really bad acne ' he admits in Saturday's episode.
By Mawuse Ziegbe
Usher on "When I Was 17"
Photo: MTV News
He's known as one of the smoothest R&B sensations to grace the stage, but when Usher was 17, he grappled with a far less flattering image.
"I went through this phase where I had really, really bad acne," the singer admits on the latest episode of "When I Was 17," premiering Saturday at 11 a.m. Usher, who was 17 in 1995, reveals with a grin that his nickname was "Pizza Face."
"His acne was so horrible," recalled one of Usher's more blunt friends, Keith. "His face was so jacked up."
Music mogul and producer Jermaine Dupri remembered how the entertainer's spotty complexion led him to shy away from the spotlight.
"He didn't want to go out. He wanted to stay in," Dupri says. "He was a little ashamed of what was going on with his face."
The singer went to extreme, and ultimately unsuccessful, lengths to disguise his breakouts.
"As a dude, you're not gonna put makeup on your face, right?" Usher said. "I tried that, it didn't even work."
He may have experimented with cosmetics and spent a few more nights at home but the multiplatinum star didn't let his acne hold him back from wooing the ladies. "I was 17, so I would still try to talk to girls [and] get past it," Usher reasoned.
He even had some smooth lines to drop when he wanted to draw attention away from his skin. " 'Don't look at that, look at my eyes, baby. I'm trying to say something real serious to you right here,' " Usher recalled, reenacting his complexion-deflecting dating moves. "I know I have pizza face, I don't care."
In the end, his skin cleared up and the singer said it was just a matter of riding out a rite passage that many teens are forced to endure.
"This is something that all 17-year-olds have to deal with," Usher said. "You can't run away from it."
— this week featuring B.o.B, Usher and Ne-Yo — premieres Saturday at 11 a.m. on MTV

'Dancing with the Stars': Which Celebs Should Dance Next Season?
Sure, it hasn't even been 24 hours since Season 11 of Dancing with the Stars ended -- but like Christmas music on the radio, speculation about next season's dancers always starts early!
Here are three celebs that the producers may already be sizing up for Season 12:
1. Christine O'Donnell
Bristol Palin may have been a controversial candidate this season, but all that attention was great for the show's ratings. Rumor has it that Tea Party darling Christine O'Donnell is being considered for next season -- and that the idea was floated by none other than Sarah Palin herself.
2. Portia de Rossi
DWTS producers are reportedly considering same-sex dance pairings in Season 12 -- and Portia de Rossi may take them up on it. Wife Ellen DeGeneres acknowledged the possibility on a November episode of her talk show.
3. Jodie Sweetin
The former Full House cast member is openly gunning for a spot on the show. Her boyfriend even started a Twitter campaign on her behalf! With her child-star fame and inspiring story of sobriety, she seems like a candidate worth considering.
Of course, the internet has no shortage of viewer suggestions for next season's dancers. On Facebook alone, fans are currently nominating Pee-wee Herman, HGTV's David Bromstad, Captain Sig Hansen from Deadliest Catch, Jade from RuPaul's Drag Race, Sell This House host Tanya Memme, and of course, Justin Bieber. As for us? We're still holding out hope for Snooki!

Cher Recalls Holding Lady Gaga's Meat Purse At The VMAs

For the Cher fans out there old enough to remember her famous "Turn Back Time" outfit, the fact that the 64-year-old is still able to rock the heck out of that very small piece of fabric stood out as one of the highlights of this year's Video Music Awards.
When MTV News caught up with the legendary diva while she promoted her new movie "Burlesque," we had to ask what inspired her attire that night.
"Well, I wear that every night in Las Vegas, so I just whipped it out. I didn't have time to think of, like, getting a costume," she explained. "So I had it and thought it would just be fun to just take off on myself, not knowing I was going to be handling the meat purse," she said, referring to Lady Gaga's now-famous meat dress and accessory. "But, you know, there's those moments you just remember [forever]," she said with a chuckle. " 'Here, Cher, will you hold my meat purse?' "
For someone who has been in the business for so long, Cher is very down-to-earth about her fame — no matter how big the freak-outs of fans (and a few journalists we watched try to contain their excitement at the "Burlesque" press day). We asked what it feels like to experience such unbridled enthusiasm and love from her fans.
"You know, I would tell you the truth, and it's going to sound so awful, but I'm kind of used to it," she said. "I've been around so long. This guy said, 'My grandmother loves you.' If somebody's grandmother loves you, they've known you for a long time," she said, adding that the fans who have known her via a grandmother or mother have more of a history with her, which translates into being totally starstruck.
What did you think of Cher pulling out the "Turn Back Time" outfit for the VMAs? Let us know in the comments!
Check out everything we've got on "Burlesque."

Thanksgiving Themed TV Episodes
TV sitcom writers love Thanksgiving. Think of all the jokes that come from sticking ornery family members together! How could you not find the funny in a novice cook squaring off against a ten-pound turkey? Oh, the things that could go wrong!
In years past, the Thanksgiving season inspired the writers of Friends to put turkey heads on Monica (Courteney Cox) and Joey (Matt LeBlanc). The Seinfeld writers poked fun at the Thanksgiving Day parade by having Jerry poke a hole in the Woody Woodpecker float. And on How I Met Your Mother, Marshall (Jason Segel) reached across the Thanksgiving dinner table to smack Barney (Neil Patrick Harris), and the whole gang gathered around the piano to sing a song about it. (The slap, that is.)
Everybody Loves Raymond (9 p.m., TV Land) Four Thanksgiving-themed episodes will run, including the one with the tofu turkey.
Cougar Town (9:30 p.m., ABC): Jules uses Thanksgiving dinner to get an "I love you" out of Grayson.
Roseanne (11 p.m., TV Land): Four consecutive ep isodes of Thanksgiving-themed, dysfunctional family drama, including the year "when [Roseanne's] father is spending Thanksgiving with his girlfriend."
Better With You (8:30 p.m., ABC) : Everyone's hoping that this year, Vickey's (Debra Jo Rupp) turkey won't taste like "a car accident in your mouth."
