‘I wasn’t expecting Whitney to take the stage, but she came up,’ friend and R&B singer Kelly Price tells MTV News before Houston was found dead. By Kelley L. Carter, with reporting by Kelly Marino Whitney Houston and Kelly Price perform in Los Angeles on Thursday Photo: Gabriel Olsen/FilmMagic Saturday morning (February 11) at a pre-Grammy brunch, R&B singer Kelly Price talked up her friend and collaborator Whitney Houston , telling MTV News that reports of her friend being anything but OK were erroneous. Later that afternoon, her friend had died at age 48 . “I honestly don’t know what all the craziness is about,” Price told us at the time. “We partied so hard, we all looked a mess when we walked out of the club. But that’s a good party. You sweat. You do that.” Price was talking about another pre-Grammy event in her honor, where Houston had performed Thursday night. MTV News has obtained exclusive video from that performance, reported to be Houston’s last. “When I was approached about doing a Grammy celebration party for me, I actually said I would love to do it,” Price told MTV News about Thursday’s event. “I invited a bunch of friends, Whitney Houston among them. … All of my friends came out. They performed. They performed for free. It was an amazing night. My band was there. It ended up being an all-out jam session.” Price continued, “I wasn’t expecting Whitney to take the stage, but she came up. She got on the stage, and while I was talking to her, she grabbed the microphone and started singing. So that’s kind of cool.” Tragically, Houston was found dead later Saturday. She was reportedly found at the Beverly Hilton, where a party thrown by her mentor, Clive Davis, is planned for Saturday night. Join us for an hour-long musical tribute to Whitney Houston, Saturday night at 11:30 on MTV. Share your condolences with Whitney’s family and friends on our Facebook page .

There’s an old saying that goes: “Real friends are there when you need them the most.” Well, a former associate of Nate Dogg says the singer’s friends turned their backs on him, even refusing to pay for his mounting medical bills. TMZ Reports Nate Dogg’s world-famous rap friends turned their backs on the singer when he needed them most … refusing to pitch in one cent towards his medical costs … this according Nate’s former associate, who’s on the hook for the $300k bill. TMZ broke the story … Nate’s estate AND a record label owner named David Michery … were sued by the medical facility where Nate lived from 2008 to 2010 after suffering a massive stroke. A judge recently ruled in favor of the facility, which means David needs to pay up … or else. Now, it could be that this guy is just bitter because he was stuck with the bill. It doesn’t seem likely that NO ONE would help Nate out in his time of need. What do you think?
Dear Bossip , When I was 18-years old I met this 25 about to be 26-year old at a party. We started talking. He made me his girlfriend. Been around his kids and family. I used to ditch school to see him. I was in love with him and accepted the fact that he had kids. Three months in and for 3months I told him I wanted to marry him and have a life with him. He pushed it off. My mom wasn’t in approval and I kept seeing him behind her back. We had each others yahoo, Facebook, Twitter, AIM, home phone, address, cell, and OVOO. We always stayed in contact which made it harder to leave, but it would be the downfall to our relationship because I ended up seeing pictures and comments I wasn’t supposed to. I figured if he cheating then I might as well I do it too, but my naive mind figured if I tell him all I’m doing and with who, then I wouldn’t be cheating. I started talking to other guys with no intentions of sleeping with them, I just wanted the attention that I couldn’t get from my boyfriend because at the time my mom didn’t know I was still seeing him. So, it went from lying about going to hang out with so-and-so to be with my boyfriend, to actually meeting real life so-and-so and seeing less of my boyfriend. I asked many times for a break for me to figure out what I really wanted, but he rejected and refused. He secretly went thru my phone twice. He saw some texts he wasn’t supposed to see. Once, during the ups of our relationship I agreed to do a tape and naughty pics for him to let him know that I still loved him and he was the only one I was with sexually. Huge mistake because something I did out of love would be the thing that would hurt me the most. How you ask? Every time after when I would ask for a break to meet a new guy friend or in his eyes cheat, or he gets really mad, he would threaten to leak the video and post the pics around my apartment building. Now, 2 years later, I was assaulted and he was there for me. He says he loves me, but gets mad and threatens to post the video. I’ve tried leaving many times, but he used that to get me back. I don’t know what to do. I really don’t want the tapes or pics to leak and I’m tired of feeling trapped to him. Help me! – Trapped And Confined Dear Ms. Trapped And Confined , First of all, your fast ass was 18 years old dealing with a 26 year old. That is a problem. You have nothing in common. He is too old for your ass. And, you needed to stay in your lane, especially since you stated that you were ditching school to be with him. I wish I was your parent and I found out that you were ditching school, I would have ditched my foot right up your ass. But, hold up, Ms. Thang, after three months your hot in the pants fast ass was talking about marrying him and having a life with him? What the hell!?! What did you possibly know about him in three months to give you any idea that he was the man for you, especially considering he already had kids, which means he has more than one, possibly more than two kids? And, I’m certain he has more than one baby momma. So, therefore, your wretched ass didn’t even give any type of consideration or thought to the fact that if he is not with his kids mother’s, then why would he want to be with you? Your mother should have snatched a bone out of your neck and beat the hell out of you with it! That’s what your generation is missing – A strong family support system with Big Momma and ‘em, and using a switch on your narrow asses to beat the hell out of you. You better be glad you didn’t grow up like I did where my momma, daddy, uncles, aunts, and whoever else in the neighborhood had the authority to whoop that ass, and use extension cords to tear that ass up! But, let me address this damn madness your ass have gotten yourself into by making a naughty video and sending naked pictures to this trifling ass man. UGH! I wish I could just shake the –ish out of you and knock some damn sense in your head. Ole basic ass! As a matter of fact, ladies and gentlemen, let this be a lesson to all of you out there – Never, never, ever make a naughty video, and send explicit photos to anyone over the internet, or via cell phones because you will end up in a situation just like Ms. Basic Ass who wrote this letter. Please know that whomever you’re in a relationship with that one day it will end. One day it will be over. And, it may end horrible, nasty, and bitter. And, guess what? They have the videos and naked pics of you that they can leak over the internet or share with their friends. You don’t EVER want to give someone ammunition to hold over you and keep you hostage or at their will because your freaky nasty hoe-ish ass wants to act like a stripper or some amateur porn star. And, none of you are Heather Hunter, Tera Patrick, Jenaveve Jolie, Havana Ginger, or Roxy Reynolds. So, please, please, please stop posting those unattractive, explicit photos posing in your dirty panties and bras in your whack ass bathroom shots with spots on your mirrors, and your toiletries on the counter. It’s not cute! But, y’all are going to learn about taking nasty pics and videos and sending them to the ‘so-called’ love of your life. Dumbasses! Listen, I hate that you’re in this situation, but maybe this will teach your basic ass a lesson. Maybe this will be a teachable moment about dealing with gutter and street dudes who ain’t got –ish and won’t be –ish. And, just so that you’ll know this moving forward, IF YOU FEEL YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOUR LOVE TO ANYONE, THEN THEY DON’T LOVE YOU. LOVE IS NOT ABOUT PROVING ANYTHING. IT’S NOT ABOUT CONVINCING SOMEONE WHO IS INSECURE OR JEALOUS THAT YOU’RE WILLING TO DO SOMETHING DETRIMENTAL TO YOUR OWN SELF AND WELL-BEING TO MAKE THEM FEEL SECURE AND COMFORTABLE WITHIN THE RELATIONSHIP. WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF AT THE POINT, STOP, TAKE A MOMENT, AND GATHER YOUR THINGS AND BOUNCE! Unfortunately, there is nothing you can about him having the video and pics. You sent them to him. You tried being nice, and thought you would walk away and that’ll be that. Uhm, WRONG! He has them in his possession, and just like the bish ass he is, he’s trying to manipulate you into staying with him, and use them as his negotiating power. SMDH! Young lady, I hope you’ll never do this again, and if you ever meet someone new and feel the urge to do some bull-ish like this again, please call me. Please, please, please let me know so I can personally snatch that auburn dyed lacefront off your head and smack you upside your bald ass skull! Now, if I were you, and you’re not me, and I’m not suggesting that you do this, but I’m just saying that if I WERE YOU AND IF I WAS IN YOUR SITUATION, THEN WHAT I WOULD DO, I would get his ass pissy drunk one night. Plan a special evening and make sure he drinks and drinks and drinks until he is totally inebriated. Then, when he passes out, pull off all his clothes, and get him buck naked. I would take videos, and pics of him laid and sprawled out with his nuts and penis in plain sight, along with is face. I would also get my “special toy” and place it strategically near his mouth and spread his legs and place it near his ass. Hell, I would even get him awake long enough to think he’s getting some and capture him getting excited and ready, and I would video tape it all. Trust me, he’ll be too drunk to know what’s going on. AND, THEN I WOULD MAKE MULTIPLE COPIES OF EVERYTHING! Then, the next day as I’m telling him that the relationship is over and he wants to get big and bad and say he will release the video and pics he has, I would double over in laughter and dare him to do it. Then, I’d pull up all the pics and video of him from the night before. BOOM! BAM! POW! You wanna rumble with the bee, huh?

Short season tells a ‘whole, complete story,’ Eloise Mumford tells MTV News. By Josh Wigler Eloise Mumford and Joe Anderson in “The River” Photo: American Broadcasting Companies, Inc. It won’t take long to cross “The River” — only six more weeks, in fact! Despite boasting an intense, mythology-driven premise — a naturalist goes missing in the Amazon, leading his friends and family to search for him while fending off supernatural twists and turns around every river bend — the new ABC series, which debuted on Tuesday, only has eight episodes to unfold in its first season. The two-hour premiere counts for two of those episodes, leaving only six weeks before “The River” overflows in late March. It may not seem like enough time to get to the bottom of the show’s biggest mysteries (What happened to Emmet Cole? What’s lurking in the jungle?), but “River” actress Eloise Mumford told MTV News that the first season’s breakneck pace is actually “a huge advantage.” “It’s an event now,” said Mumford, who stars in the series as young adventurer Lena Landry. “It’s like a miniseries. It’s a little movie every week. And honestly, that’s what we did. We worked our butts off. We shot some really incredible footage. Usually dailies when you shoot a show are, I don’t know, an hour or two a day. We did like 13 hours of footage every day. It’s an insane amount of footage! They edit it all together and it’s just really rich.” Mumford also believes that with eight episodes, fans will see the season weave a very satisfying narrative, because the writers were able to build the story based on a smaller episode order. “People will be able to tune in each week and it’ll leave them wanting more. But also they won’t get sick of it in the middle,” she said. “We knew all along that we were doing eight. That’s what we were planning on. So the arc of the season isn’t like, ‘Shoot, what should our next episode be?’ They had a plan from start to finish. It’s a whole, complete story.” Well, perhaps not a whole complete story. Even if many questions are answered by the end of the show’s first season, Mumford promised that the door is most certainly left open for a season-two comeback. “Obviously there’s a possibility to come back. It’s definitely not wrapped up in a concrete way,” she said. “[Fingers crossed for] season two!” Did you watch “The River”? What did you think? Tell us in the comments!
Here are some pantsless picture of Victoria Beckham reminding all you lazy bitches that just because you have a kid or 4, you don’t have to let yourself fucking go….I don’t think obesity is one of America’s great epidemics…I think these lying cunts who you guys marry, only to have them let themselves go and take on eating everything they didn’t eat before landing a man, in order to land a man, and once a man was landed they could throw that self-discipline out the window…. It only gets worse once they get knocked up and have the kids cuz now they could blame it on baby weight…a collective conspiracy women everywhere are a part of…like a secret society…who are trying to pull a fast one on men everywhere and that’s why they hate bitches like this who disprove all their hard work in making us believe baby weight is an actual thing….and letting it slide since you did make us our babies and we’d be assholes to say you’re a fat pig we have a hard time fucking now that you and your friends are huge….
Lana Del Rey’s 15 minutes may be nearing their end (she did just postpone her tour after tanking on SNL ), but she’s got one last charge towards relevance up her sleeve; just check out her new jam inspired by The Hunger Games called, simply, “Hunger Games.” So Lana. So Katniss. “This District smells like rat piss/My name is Katniss/I play the Hunger Gaaaaames…” Okay, so it’s not technically Lana Del Rey. But isn’t Lana Del Rey herself more of an idea, really? One made of pouty lips and moody sunsets and Veronica Lake hair that belongs to us all? Well anyway, Second City’s Holly Laurent does an uncanny job smashing together these two zeitgeisty entities into one weirdly perfect package that boils down both the neophyte songstress and Suzanne Collins’ bestselling YA phenomenon to their essences.

“We must treat these dog characters with the same respect we show human characters… no condescension, no looking down, no breaking character for the sake of a gag.” And that, my friends, is part of the reason why Walt Disney’s legacy on film has stood the test of time. After the jump, find deleted scenes and a nifty video culling notes from Disney’s story meetings with collaborators on 1955’s Lady and the Tramp . In newly released deleted scenes (found on the Lady and the Tramp Diamond Edition DVD and Blu-ray, out today), envision what might have been via sketched storyboards for moments that didn’t make it into the final cut. Scrapped from the final film, Russian wolfhound Boris was at one point to em-bark (groan!) in a love triangle with Lady and Tramp. At this point in development, the character of Tramp was called Homer. Deleted Scene: “Boris meets Lady” Lady’s troubles begin when owners Jim Dear and Darling find they’re expecting a baby and no longer can give her their full attention, but in this deleted scene Lady shares in her master’s excitement. Deleted Scene: “Waiting for Baby” Fascinating character development chat abounds in this dramatic recreation of Disney’s story meetings on crafting the character of Lady, based on original transcripts. “Creating Lady” And a brief peek inside the process of developing the Beaver character, envisioned as a near-sighted salesman caricature — “A satire on the 21st century and what they think up…” “Creating Beaver” Follow Jen Yamato on Twitter .

This isht is just sick!!!! A duo of Wisconsin sisters are in trouble after subjecting a male teen with unelaborated upon social issues to confusing, horrific sexual torture. Warning: it involves pliers. To the penis. According to the Huffington Post, what sounds like the world’s most fucked up party involved sisters Amanda Johnson (age 17), Valerie Bartkey (age 24), a handful of their friends, and a high school student known as Joseph. Joseph, apparently, has some emotional or developmental issues about which investigators declined to go into detail, citing privacy concerns. The male student was invited to hang out with a group of people last October. When he arrived at the house, he smoked marijuana and went outside to play with one of the young men who were there. After he playfully punched the man in the stomach, the partygoers turned on Joseph, beating him, chasing him away and taking his shoes. When he returned, he found one of his shoes in the sink and another in the toilet, and then they made him drink urine. And then the girls invited him downstairs, where one demanded Joseph remove his clothing and have sex with the other girl. And the whole thing ended with pliers to the penis torture, while a 4-year-old child slept in the next room over. Thankfully, the owner of the house interrupted the torture session and kicked the girls out of his house. He then called the police. The girls, acting exactly how you’d expect two evil sex criminals would act, threatened to tell the police that Joseph was using drugs on the night of the attack, after they found out he was pressing charges.
