Over at ABL’s place, Allan Brauer has a terrific article involving the specifics on why the Right wants Weiner gone for good: Weiner’s the only one banging the drum on Clarence Thomas, his wife Ginny’s involvement in the Tea Party, and how this massive conflict of interest threatens our country..and how it comes back to Andrew Breitbart.

My name’s Isabella and I’m from Adelaide, SA (the second girl) & this is my Bieber experience. I use to sit on the computer for hours reading all these entries day dreaming about meeting Justin Bieber and I can’t believe I can finally write my experience! My friend told me to sign up for bieberfever.com and I did, we thought we would have a good chance at the m&g contest! The day before the concert, my friend and I sat there anxiously to get an email, we were up till 12am wondering if we would ever get one but sadly we didn’t receive anything. We went to bed disappointed but still had a bit of hope. The next day (day of the concert) at seven in the morning half asleep, I went to check to see if we had gotten any email, there was one unread message. I saw the subject saying ‘Congratulations you’ve just won’ MY HEART DROPPED. I woke up my friend and showed her. We were screaming and crying, I kept pinching myself to make sure I wasn’t dreaming, I couldn’t believe it. I have loved Justin for SO long it, seriously felt like I was in a dream. Then about two hours before, we were nervously sitting at the entertainment center waiting to get our wristbands. Finally we got them, I was so nervous and so excited. I don’t think its possible to explain how I was feeling when the doors opened for the meet and greets . We all waited in this room and you could tell that everyone there was so scared. I sat there with my kangaroo, my customized Australian flag and my poster I made for him! The room started getting less full, and then it was our turn. I WAS SO NERVOUS, everything felt so fake. I was first in my group, so I gave my presents to the security and then turned around the door and saw him standing a few meters away half smiling. I seriously couldn’t believe what was happening, I didn’t believe it was him. I was trying to just be myself, smile, relax and NOT CRY. I walked up to him and gave him the biggest hug I’ve ever given to anyone and from what I can remember, I was like “Omg omg Justin I love you so much your my inspiration”. He did that cheeky smile and was like, “Thanks so much”. He was so much more perfect in real life, I think amazing is an understatement! I could tell he was tired because his flights were delayed and knowing I only had a minute, I was trying to make the most of it. He grabbed my hand after we took the photo, I held on so tight, I told him how much I loved him because I was in so much shock, I didn’t know what else to say! He was looking straight in to my eyes, rubbing my hand so delicately. Then it was time to go. I was so happy that my dream had finally came true and it’s true NEVER SAY NEVER . I got out the meet and greet room, fell to the floor and started crying and didn’t stop for two hours. In that short amount of time he seriously treated me better than any other guy ever has! So Justin if your reading this, I WANT YOU TO KNOW you are incredible, and so amazing you seriously have completed my life and I will never forget this experience. I will support you no matter what and you will always be my inspiration! -@belzyJBdefazio Read more from the original source: My name’s Isabella and I’m from Adelaide, SA (the…
My name is Elizaveta and I’m going to tell you my Bieber experience. The 9th April 2011 was the best day of my life because Justin Bieber finally came to Italy , and luckly he came in the city where I live! I went to his concert for the first time! It was really amazing for me. Then after the concert I knew that he should go to the party of Dolce & Gabbana, so I went there, but the party was private so at first I couldn’t go inside. But after waiting I was aloud to go inside where he was, now maybe you can’t believe me, but I was inside and I’m not famous, and my parents as well. Inside there were a few other beliebers, also the daughters of the owner. I was very lucky to go in, thanks to an amazing person. I was there and I saw Justin dancing. Sadly Justin didn’t take any photos with fans, and I was a little sad for that. But now I realize that I was the happiest girl in the world. It was really the best day of my life, I really hope he’ll come back in Italy! Also my friend Magda was at the concert too, and she caught Justin’s towel when he threw it into the crowd, but that’s another experience. I hope Justin will follow me one day. NEVER SAY NEVER. – @_elizaveta_ See the article here: My name is Elizaveta and I’m going to tell you my Bieber…
‘So far, some of our oldest contestants have been at the top of the leader board,’ the Disney star tells MTV News. By Kelley L. Carter Chelsea Kane Photo: MTV News LOS ANGELES — Age ain’t nothing but a number for Chelsea Kane. The 22-year-old Disney star and current “Dancing With the Stars” contestant is paired up with 24-year-old Mark Ballas, which makes the pair among the youngest on the show this season. But taking a look at how the scoring has been going so far, Kane points out, that means nothing. “Sometimes I feel like it’s a disadvantage, in the sense where I think people automatically assume because we’re younger that we’re going to pick up the choreography easier and that we have this upper hand in the competition,” Kane told MTV News of her age. “Which I don’t think is the case at all. We’re three dances in, and so far some of our oldest contestants have been at the top of the leader board. I don’t think anything can prepare you for this experience.” So that’s the downside to being younger. The upside? Kane laughs that she and Ballas can exist off of little sleep. “The nice part is that I feel like we’re able to go with less sleep, and we like to go out and still have fun and we don’t have families or anything to worry about yet! So that’s the advantage. We get to enjoy this,” she said, laughing. When MTV News caught up with the pair at their rehearsal for Monday night’s (April 11) dance, we asked them to so size up their competition. The front-runner they’re most worried about is Ralph Macchio, who is 49. “I feel like Ralph is really going to be a challenge, just because he works so hard,” Kane said. “Every time we come to the studio, he’s been here all day, takes no breaks, whereas Mark and I are in the kitchen eating Ralph’s anniversary cake that he had dropped off. We’re so bad!” Do you think being young is an advantage on “Dancing With the Stars”? Let us know in the comments!
‘She’s an incredible creature,’ RPattz tells MTV News of ‘Water for Elephants’ focal point Tai. By Aly Semigran, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Robert Pattinson Photo: MTV News Robert Pattinson has certainly had some very nice things to say about his “Water for Elephants” leading lady Reese Witherspoon, recently telling MTV News that she has a “nice energy about her.” But it’s obvious that RPattz holds a special place in his heart for another female co-star: Tai the Elephant. “She’s an incredible creature,” the 24-year-old actor said of his famous pachyderm co-star. In fact, he and Tai (Pattinson previously joked that she has “done way more movies than I have”) got incredibly close at one point. Pattinson revealed to MTV News that he actually got in Tai’s mouth, describing the moment as “the most incredible thing in the world. You’re being lifted up by her gums. … She puts just the right amount of pressure on so she isn’t hurting you. It’s so strange.” But it wasn’t just the closeness he and Tai shared on the “Water for Elephants” set that made him appreciate working with a wild animal. “The best thing is that it takes away from the mundane [parts] of the day. If you’re doing 20 takes or something, and there’s a character who’s going to be doing something totally different every time, it’s always exciting. It’s like working with a full-on method actor who’s just improvising,” Pattinson said of the experience. Still, it’s not always a day in the park working with animals, as Pattinson and Witherspoon quickly came to find out. As he recalled during “MTV First: Robert Pattinson,” one day on the set, his beloved Tai let loose the “most incredible fart into Reese’s face … like a hurricane. Thunderous.” Even Pattinson had his moments where Tai’s presence was a distraction. “If there’s, like, an actual moment you have to get across [emotion], and suddenly there’s, like, a trunk in your face,” Pattinson said with a laugh. Still, the actor seemed to find that the positives outweighed the negatives when it came to working with Tai and all the other “Water for Elephants” animals. “It’s incredible,” he said. “It just makes everything more interesting.” “Water for Elephants” arrives in theaters April 20.

‘Being a mother with three children suddenly when you’re young is quite a big [change],’ she tells MTV News at DVD premiere. By Kara Warner, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Bonnie Wright attends the opening of Harry Potter: The Exhibiton in New York City Photo: Getty Images For the most devoted “Harry Potter” fans out there, the countdown has already begun in anticipation of the final film release, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2.” Over the weekend, we got a sneak peek at Harry Potter: The Exhibition , as well as a few exclusive clips from the “Deathly Hallows, Part 1” DVD/Blu-ray. At the DVD premiere, we asked actress Bonnie Wright about the experience filming the franchise’s highly anticipated “epilogue” sequence , in which all the characters appear as themselves, only 19 years in the future. “It was really weird,” Wright said of seeing herself in makeup made to look like a woman in her 30s. “People said, ‘Don’t worry, you look good for 35!’ ” Wright said the experience was a lot of fun, mostly because she had to embody a completely new aspect of her character, Ginny Weasley-Potter. “Being a mother with three children suddenly when you’re young is quite a big [change],” she said. “It’s strange, because obviously [when] I started, my first scene ever filmed was on the train platform 9 3/4, and then we came back to shoot some more before Christmas, and it was back at platform 9 3/4, so I finished, and it was like this amazing cycle.” Regarding the scenes she’s most looking forward to seeing in the final film, Wright said she’s pumped to see the final battle. “I think I’m mainly looking forward to the epic battle that is to come,” she said. “See[ing] the power of good triumph over evil is going to be satisfying.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2.” For young Hollywood news, fashion and “Twilight” updates around the clock, visit HollywoodCrush.MTV.com .

‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ star talks at CinemaCon about working with director Michael Bay. By Kara Warner, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Photo: Getty Images Now that we’ve entered the month of April, it seems justifiable to start hyping this summer’s potential blockbusters. Not that we haven’t been already, but it feels like the big summer movies are just around the corner — one of those being the highly anticipated “Transformers: Dark of the Moon.” MTV News caught up with the franchise’s new leading lady, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, recently at CinemaCon to discuss her experience on the film and getting caught up in director Michael Bay’s workaholic web. “I’ve seen the last two movies, so I kind of knew what I was getting into, but obviously not at all as well,” Whiteley said of being a bit overwhelmed by the big movie experience. “It was a crazy opportunity that was handed to me, and I spent seven months making the movie with a great cast and a great director, and it’s been a roller coaster of a lifetime for sure,” she said. “I’m still on it, I don’t know if I’m going to get off anytime soon.” Regarding Bay, Whiteley described him as a “character” with lots of energy: “I think throughout my whole career, I’ve never seen anybody work so hard in my whole life,” she said. “He’s literally done these ‘Transformers’ movies for six years now. As cast, we do the filming for seven months, then he goes into the edit room and edits it for six months, then he comes out of the edit room and promotes it, and by the time he’s finished that, he’s prepping the next one,” she explained. “It’s amazing to see how dedicated he is to these films.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Transformers: Dark of the Moon.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

Drum line and colorfully dressed dancers bring ‘Rio’ song to life on ‘Idol’ stage. By Adam Graham Jamie Foxx and will.i.am on “American Idol” Photo: FOX Jamie Foxx and will.i.am brought their “Hot Wings” to “American Idol” on Thursday (March 31). The pair teamed up to perform their new single from the soundtrack to “Rio,” the computer-animated flight tale in which they both voice characters. And they didn’t come alone: They performed with a 12-member drum line and a full team of colorfully dressed dancers, while footage from “Rio” played on the video screens behind them. Neither Foxx nor will.i.am are strangers to “Idol.” Foxx was a mentor to the contestants in seasons eight and nine and also performed on the show during season eight, while will did “Just Can’t Get Enough” with the Black Eyed Peas on the show just two weeks ago and also performed on the “Idol” stage with the Peas in seasons eight and nine. They both clearly know their way around the place by now and were comfortable shouting out the judges (“I see you, Randy!”) mid-song. The song is built around the repeated refrain “I wanna party, I wanna samba” and finds Foxx and will.i.am trading verses, in character as their “Rio” likenesses (Foxx plays Nico, a canary, while will.i.am plays a cardinal named Pedro). They entered the stage together via the “Idol” staircase, and Foxx — dressed in a black suit and dark shades — opened the song. Mr. i.am — dressed in a white jacket, red shirt and porkpie hat — chimed in during the second verse, rapping about ghetto blasters and speedy dance moves. The album version of the song also features the pair’s “Rio” co-star Anne Hathaway, though the Oscar host was not in the Idoldome for the taping. The performance featured elaborate choreography among the dancers (captured by the “Idol” crew via overhead cameras) and staged fighting on the side stage. At the performance’s close, Foxx plugged “Rio” as “fun for the whole family.” The film hits theaters April 15, and the soundtrack — which is already available for download on iTunes — is due in stores Tuesday.
