Stranger Danger

My sister recently had a talk with my four-year-old nephew Jack about strangers. Here's how it went:

SISTER: Now, Jack, if a stranger says, "Come here, I want to show you something," what do you do?

JACK: I turn around and run!

SISTER: If a stranger says, "Come here, I want to give you some candy," what do you do?

JACK: I turn around and run!

SISTER: If a stranger says, "Come here, I want to show you my puppy," what do you do?

JACK: Oh, I love puppies...

<P>Lady Gaga is amping up her fans for the Born This Way Ball, set to kick off later this year. On Tuesday, she dropped a sketch of her gothic castle-themed stage design, and in the very early hours of Wednesday morning (February 8), she teased fans with a poster for the trek. </p><div class="player-placeholder right" id="vid:717952" width="240" height="211"></div><p> The black-and-white poster, which includes touches of neon purple and turquoise, features an omniscient image of Gaga, decked out in her full "BTW" horned look, looking down from the sky. Underneath, in a castle that looks an awful lot like the one from the tour sketch, Gaga, wearing a piano dress, hangs with a group of suit-wearing dudes. And, for those paying close enough attention, Zombie Boy even makes an appearance, peeking out from one of the castle windows. In her long-simmering latest "Yoü and I" fashion film, Gaga portrays her male alter ego, Jo Calderone. Jo smolders in the mini-film, smoking his way through it. Clips of Jo stripping (revealing Gaga's taped-down chest) are intercut with shots of Gaga done up in an S&M-type outfit, dancing and tossing her long blond hair. The same outfit is worn by other dancers also featured in the clip, directed by Inez and Vinoodh. Along with all these developments Little Monsters have to be excited about, this Sunday, Mother Monster is up for a number of Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album for <i>Born This Way</i> and Best Pop Solo Performance for "Yo&#252; and I." <i>Are you excited for Lady Gaga's upcoming tour? Tell us below!</i> <b>Chaos! Profanity! Wardrobe malfunctions! Don't miss Sway and James Montgomery live from the Grammys red carpet this Sunday, February 12, for a full three hours of mayhem, starting at 5 p.m. ET on MTV.com. And the fun doesn't end Sunday: MTV News has you covered until the Grammy hangover wears off!</b></p>

Taylor Swift Invites Teen Cancer Patient Kevin McGuire To ACM Awards

Here is just one more reason to love Taylor Swift. The singer has invited teen cancer patient Kevin McGuire to be her date at the ACM Awards. New Jersey teen Kevin McGuire is battling cancer for the second time and this week his sister Victoria did him a solid by creating a Facebook Page titled ?Taylor Swift Take Kevin McGuire To Prom?. Neither Kevin nor his sis really thought anything would come of it, however they were wrong. Swift got word of the page and posted this response on the Facebook page. Kevin, I?m so sorry but I won?t be able to make it to your prom. But I was wondering, the ACM Awards are coming up.. Would you be my date? Love Taylor How freaking cool is that! She can?t make his prom so she instead invites the teen to be her date at one of country?s biggest nights, sweet! As I am sure you can imagine both Kevin and his family were blown away by Taylor?s kindness. I personally am not. I think that this is just another testament as to what a completely awesome young woman Swift is. So will McGuire be able to attend the Academy [...]

Kate Gosselin Is Lonely? Oh Boo Hoo

Kate Gosselin was a guest on Dr. Drew’s Lifechangers Wednesday, and talked about what her relationship is like with her ex-husband, Jon Gosselin, the breakdown of her marriage and her love life or lack thereof. See video clips of her appearance below! Kate Plus 8 has been off the air since last September and I suppose she didn’t want anyone to forget who she is, so off she went to appear on Dr. Drew’s Lifechangers Show. Hey, gotta get those 15 minutes of fame in any way she can, right? Anyhoo, Dr. Drew asked Kate how things were going between her and her ex Jon. She told him, “He basically lives his life and I live mine. It’s more peaceful. Probably not anything that I’m doing differently. Possibly he’s working now and so he feels like he’s living a regular life again and maybe a little happier with himself, so that boils down to peace between us. The kids are now okay going there.” video platformvideo managementvideo solutionsvideo player Err, I’m sure Jon is happier with himself since he divorced Kate, what with all of her condescending and controlling ways directed at him. I mean seriously, Kate has major control [...]
