Charlie Sheen, 45, who was famously fired from the sitcom during a battle with the show#39;s creator Chuck Lorre over his behavior on and off the set, will play an ex-athlete balancing his own temper problems and those of the criminal defendants he counsels – the character Jack Nicholson originated in the Joe Roth-produced film.

My name is Megan, I’m 15 years old from Washington State and the best day of my life was July 13 th 2010. That’s the day I talked to Justin Bieber and was front row at his concert. My mom ordered the ultimate V.I.P package for my friend Kaitlyn and I. About a week later, we received the news we were sitting seats 43 and 44 in row 1! I was thinking, no way did I get FRONT ROW tickets.. this must be a joke. To pay back my mom for the tickets, Kaitlyn and I had to do a lot of yard/house work almost every day, but it was worth it. Finally it was July 13 th ! We drove down to Everett Event Center around 12 pm. Kaitlyn and I met our friend Taylor there and our mom’s saved us spots in line as we went to the other side of the building to watch the tour buses come in. We then saw all of Justin’s dancers get off the bus, then we saw DAN KANTER. We started screaming and Dan looked up at us, smiled and waved. We then went back to the line and got our V.I.P lanyards to wear we walked into the arena and waited to go in to the sound check. We were sitting in the front row at the sound check. First the dancers came out and Ryan talked to us for a bit. Then the amazing moment happened when Justin walked out on stage. I screamed at the top of my lungs. Justin talked to us for a bit and asked if we had questions. I raised my hand super high and Justin called on me. I asked, “What’s your favorite part about performing?” looked at me smiled and said, “To see all you beautiful ladies in the audience.” I think that’s the moment where I thought I was dreaming. After questions, Justin sang the Dan Kanter song with us and my friend Taylor and I sang at the top of our lungs and Dan gave his pick necklace to Taylor. Then a girl close to me said, “It’smy birthday so I decided to yell, “It’s my birthday in a week!” Then Justin said he will sing happy birthday to all his fans with birthdays! All my dreams were coming true, I felt like I was in heaven. Near the end of the soundcheck, the girl next to me was talking about how her granddaughter was related to Chuck Norris, so I yelled “JUSTIN!” He said, “Who said that?” and walked over to us. She said, “Chuck Norris is my uncle!” and Justin was so amazed he wanted to touch her so she got to go touch him. After the soundcheck was over, we went to the V.I.P party were I met Justin’s dancer Marvin and got a signed Justin concert program. Then it was time for Justin’s concert. I was so amazed when we went in sat in our seats in THE FRONT ROW! After a lady gave us wristbands, we got to stand right in the middle of the front row and Kenny was standing right in front of us! Kenny came up and tapped my hand, I still have no idea why? Justin came out singing Love Me and I was so close to him, I felt like I was on stage too. I took pictures and video of the whole concert to remember it forever. It was the best day ever! Justin bent down during OLLG and sang to me. My favorite was That Should Be Me. Justin even came over and threw me his towel then they put me on THE BIG SCREEN! All I can say is dreams come true…. NEVER SAY NEVER – Megan (@MeganIsHerself) Read more: My name is Megan, I’m 15 years old from Washington State and the…

RIP, Charlie Harper? Following reports that suggested Two and a Half Men would write out Charlie Sheen’s character by simply keeping him in Paris , where he jetted off to the last time we saw him on screen, sources now say Chuck Lorre wants to ensure Sheen can never return to the CBS sitcom… … by killing Sheen’s Harper off. Will Charlie Sheen be eternally LOSING on Two and a Half Men? CBS insiders tell TMZ Alan and Jake will learn about Charlie’s fate early in the September premiere, and then Ashton Kutcher will arrive when his character buys Charlie’s house. However, no scripts have actually been turned in yet, so any development is possible. What do you think about the sitcom murdering Charlie Harper? Too harsh? Or the proper outcome for a star who burned this bridge in such a flagrant manner?
Songwriting/production duo Rock City say reggae-infused tune is ‘the female version’ of ‘I Shot the Sherriff.’ By Rebecca Thomas, with reporting by Steven Roberts Rock City Photo: MTV News The encounter begins simply enough. A handsome guy walks into a dank club and makes a beeline for the pretty girl with waist-length, red locks who’s dancing by herself. He moves gently, showing only a hint of force when he grabs her wrists and pins them against the wall. But it’s what happens afterward in Rihanna ‘s new “Man Down” video that has had critics decrying the clip since it debuted last week. Rih’s onscreen character strolls out of the Jamaican nightclub with her dance-floor partner pursuing her. A terrifying struggle ensues. When it’s over, his red mesh tank is torn, his cheek bruised, and the visibly shaken pop star is weeping. Rih decides to exact her own justice with a .22 caliber handgun that she calls “Peggy Sue.” (“I didn’t mean to end his life/ I know it wasn’t right,” she sings.) While the Anthony Mandler-directed clip appears to mirror the lyrics of the dancehall-flavored tune, when MTV News caught up with Rock City, the songwriting/performing duo behind “Man Down,” they said the verses were meant to be open to interpretation. “We wanted the song to be something to where everybody had an opinion,” Theron (a.k.a. Da Spokesman) revealed. “Some people felt it was literal, some people felt it was a metaphor.” U.S. Virgin Island-born Theron and his brother Timothy “Don’t Talk Much” Thomas — their Free at Last album is due June 21 — along with producer Shama “Sham” Joseph (a.k.a. Sak Pase), served up the narrative track specifically to let the Barbados beauty tap her island origins in a way that sounded authentic. And in a city like Kingston, Jamaica, where guns and gangs often mar the lush landscape, what could be more authentic than a girl seeking violent retribution for a sexual assault, only to find herself overcome with regret as the singer does in the visual? “When we wrote the song, me and my brother was trying to re-create in the best way possible, you know, like, Bob Marley ‘I Shot the Sherriff,’ ” Timothy told us. “The female version of what that would be.” But now that the siren-laced tune’s companion clip is stirring up controversy, Theron thinks some viewers are forgetting that the song, like so much Caribbean music, is about telling tales. “It’s like somebody wrote a script for a movie and she delivered it perfectly,” Theron argued. “I just think sometimes people need something to talk about, and this is a thing to talk about. … ‘Cause when you listen to the song word-for-word-for-word, if she shot it theatrically how [the lyrics are], it probably would have been a little [more graphic], if you ask me,” he laughed. When we interviewed Rihanna back in November, just before Loud dropped, she defiantly described “Man Down.” “The special thing in that song is the fact that it’s a female singing those lyrics,” she said. “Then you have that reggae thing and the chant; the overall energy in that song is so gangsta!” What do you think of Rihanna’s “Man Down” video?

‘They said Chuck Norris was in the train,’ star Riley Griffiths tells us at the movie’s premiere in Los Angeles. By Kara Warner Riley Griffiths, Kyle Chandler and Elle Fanning Photo: Getty Images LOS ANGELES — One of the more exciting things about the new J.J. Abrams-directed, Steven Spielberg-produced thriller “Super 8” is the overall mystery of the film. From the basic plot details that have been released, very little is known about what the heck the movie is about. Based on word of mouth and one key moment in the film’s trailers that show something trying to escape a locked compartment on a train, there is a very mysterious “thing” or secret terrorizing a small town. MTV News headed out to the film’s star-studded premiere in Los Angeles on Wednesday night to find out from the castmembers what crazy theories they’ve heard about what the “it” or “thing” or “big secret” is all about. Their answers were surprisingly varied and all over the map. “I’ve seen on IMDb that a lot of people thought it was a giant lion,” Zach Mills said. “I don’t know why. That’s the craziest thing I’ve heard.” “The funniest thing that someone has guessed what it is, they said Chuck Norris was in the train,” Riley Griffiths revealed. “That’s probably the funniest thing I’ve heard so far.” “I think someone said once on Facebook or something that it was the cube that Elle [Fanning] and Joel [Courtney] are looking at, and that [they think] it’s some creature,” Gabriel Basso said of a moment where Fanning and Courtney’s characters are examining a vibrating white cube. “That was really funny. I laughed.” Ryan Lee’s conspiracy theorists or secret guessers seemed to think that the mystery revolves around someone or something with a canine obsession. “[They think] that the thing has a dog fetish,” Lee revealed. “That’s the funniest thing somebody has said to me about the mystery of the movie. They think that thing is hoarding dogs in its train, I guess.” And last but not least, the adult in the group, actor Kyle Chandler, recalled a theorist who thinks the mystery revolves around a certain fever- and frenzy-inducing pop star. “Someone suggested to me that it was Justin Bieber,” he said. “And it could be.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Super 8.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .
