Selena Gomez performed at the Mandalay Bay Event Center at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas on Saturday night, and it was an apt location. Why? Because the singer is taking a major gamble with a new tattoo. Made evident to all when she raised her right hand in the air, Gomez now sports the inked-on name of “Justin,” with a heart added on below. Hmmm… we wonder to whom this could be referring. Any ideas, readers? In a recent interview, meanwhile, Justin Bieber did not say he wanted to marry Selena, nor did he even mention her by name. But the singer did make it clear that children are in his not-so-distant future . Are these two moving too quickly? A tattoo is pretty much as permanent as it gets, after all. What do you think?

While Selena Gomez’s new tattoo blatantly proclaims her love for Justin Bieber, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi opted to get link that signifies love in the broader sense. Snooki’s new shoulder tattoo, which she posted a photo of on Twitter over the weekend, features what looks like a large crown, heart and pearls on a pink bow. She wrote on Twitter : “MY NEW TAT

What is it with hometown reunions and high school sweethearts this week? Already, we’ve seen Hilary Duff try to hijack Mark Polish before he can rekindle the flames with his teen crush (Winona Ryder) in Stay Cool . We’ve seen artwork for Diablo Cody’s Young Adult , which features a teen lit novelist (Charlize Theron) who tries to reclaim her happily-married high school honey (Patrick Wilson). And now, we get a clip of Channing Tatum zeroing in on his love interest of yester-decade (Rosario Dawson) in a snippet from the star-packed Ten Year .
Jason Biggs, who was already our favorite Twitter celebrity (er, celebrity on Twitter?), put the news of Reese Witherspoon getting hit by a car and sustaining minor injuries in perspective last night. Since the Oscar-winner is out of the hospital and hopefully in tiptop Tracy Flick form, we like to think Mr. Biggs’s quip registers as playful sarcasm. Ahem: “I just heard the news about Reese Witherspoon doing a voice in ‘Cars 3’. Wow!” [ @BiggsJason ]
I don’t have a clue who these Holly Carpenter and Rozanne Purcell chicks are, but they’re sexy, they’re wearing short skirts and high heels, and they’re promoting Irish whiskey. Good enough for me. Apparently they’re current and former Miss Ireland’s or something, it doesn’t matter, they had me at whiskey. This is a pretty good way to market booze, forget about ads of people riding bicycles or sailing, I’ll take a couple of hotties out pounding the pavement in slutty costumes any day. Hot.
After former Heroes co-star Greg Grunberg, who has an epileptic son, tweeted his outrage over a joke in the recent Tower Heist trailer referring to Ben Stiller as “little seizure boy,” director Brett Ratner issued an apology and has reportedly asked Universal to alter the film’s marketing. Grunberg tweeted his thanks and lifted “my personal boycott of ur hilarious film.” No truth to the rumor Grunberg attempted to leverage his grudge in pursuit of Oscar-hosting duties , though presenting is probably not out of the question.

Kurt Angle has been pinned by the law once again. The former Olympic Gold Medalist and WWE star, and current TNA employee, was arrested early Sunday morning on suspicion of drink driving. The wrestler’s rental car was spotted swerving on I-66 by another vehicle, the driver of which dialed 911. Virginia State Troopers subsequently arrived on scene, pulled Angle over and took him to Warren County Jail, where he was later released on $2,000 bond. Angle was previously arrested in March charged with “being in control of a motor vehicle while intoxicated,” after parking on a median and failing a field sobriety test. He was also booked (though later acquitted) in 2007 for DUI and careless driving.
A number of military veterans are demanding an apology from Soulja Boy after the rapper ignited a wave of controversy with his song, “Let’s Be Real.” After plugging his Twitter page (really), Soulja drops this bomb: “F**k the FBI and the army troops … fighting for what? Be your own man … I’ll be flying through the clouds with green like I’m Peter Pan.” Mmmyeah. Soulja Boy – Let’s Be Real Fred A. Flores, a retired U.S. Marine and commissioner for the L.A. County Veteran’s Advisory Commission, spoke out against this “offensive statement.” Flores, who has two children currently serving in the military, calls Soulja Boy “Ungrateful” … adding, “He should apologize to ALL armed forces.” “[The rap] is very irresponsible, especially for an entertainer for the youth of our country, and especially with the 10th anniversary of 9/11 coming up.” Seriously, Soulja. Just because you spell your name wrong doesn’t give you license to start bashing actual soldiers who protect your ass daily.
Billboard reports C4 on pace to sell between 850,000 and 900,000 copies after album leaks five days early. By Rob Markman, with additional reporting by Jim Cantiello Lil Wayne Photo: Kevin Winter/ Getty Images In this digital age, album leaks are an accepted part of the music industry. So when Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV was illegally pushed onto the Internet five days before its official drop, the Young Money honcho wasn’t worried in the least. “We did real good this time, real good,” Wayne told MTV News correspondent Jim Cantiello after his show-closing performance at the VMAs in L.A. on Sunday. “It just means people want to hear it,” he said. “I mean, ’cause there’re people’s albums that come out that can be leaked and don’t leak, so I’m glad mines leaked.” Hear Weezy talk about having a “moment” with his show-closing VMA set! After Jay-Z and Kanye West avoided a leak with their Watch the Throne album, many wondered if Wayne could do the same. But the YMCMB camp insists they aren’t too concerned about how the leak may affect album sales. Via his Twitter account, Cash Money CEO Birdman has been promoting Weezy’s album for the past week, even going so far as to predict that C4 would sell a million copies in its first week, just like Wayne’s Tha Carter III in 2008. On Monday, he wrote , “C4.BMJR.#Dont Lie 1m. 1week They Know.” “I think we should still do well,” Mack Maine told MTV News on Sunday. “The leak shouldn’t have affected it that much. Actually, this is the first time that the albums leaked so close [to the release date]. Tha Carter III leaked two weeks before and we still did [1 million] the first week. So if history repeats itself, we shouldn’t have any problems.” On Tuesday, after a full day of sales, Billboard reported that Tha Carter IV was on pace to sell anywhere between 850,000 and 900,000 copies in its first week. Meanwhile, HITS Daily Double estimated on Friday (September 2) that Wayne could move upwards of 975,000 copies, inching him that much closer to a milli.
