A week prior to The Bachelorette finale, Emily Maynard came face-to-face with her potential suitors on last night’s Men Tell All special . What was the most challenging aspect of the reunion for this beautiful single mother? Seeing Sean Lowe again, Emily admitted in a new blog entry. “I didn’t feel like we had much closure, and it was really important to me that he knew that everything I felt was 100 percent real for me,” Maynard writes , adding that she’s thrilled Sean is now in a “great place.” Who will Emily actually end up with? Visit our section of Bachelorette spoilers for a few theories. Who got slammed the hardest on this week’s special? That’s easy: Kalon. “He made it pretty clear he wasn’t sorry, so I wasn’t going to sit there and let him think he was tricking me into thinking he was a nice guy,” says Maynard. “People like Kalon make me sad and I’m just glad I never have to waste another second thinking about him!” NOTE : The Bachelorette finale will actually air on Sunday night, so set your DVR accordingly and answer now: Who should Emily pick?
Marissa Mayer is leaving Google for its major competitor. One of the top players at the top search engine on the planet, Mayer was named chief executive of Yahoo today, instantly bumping her way up on the corporate America food chain and making her possibly the most prominent woman in Silicon Valley. She had been listed as employee number-20 at Google. An engineer by trade, Mayer was considered responsible for many of Google’s best-known features, from its simple homepage design to Gmail to Google News and Images. Her appointment as the President of Yahoo is considered a significant get for a company trying to compete with Google and Facebook. She begins her new gig tomorrow. Referring to Yahoo as “one of the best brands on the Internet,” Mayer showed appreciation for her time at Google but told The New York Times in an interview: “It was a reasonably easy decision.”
Tonight the men spill the secrets of this season of The Bachelorette and single mom, Emily Maynard. They’ll talk douchebaggery and heartbreak. There might even be man tears. But will they spill the biggest secret of all? That is, will they spoil which man won Emily’s heart ? Well, no. Probably not. Oh well. The big teases. Chris Harrison, a.k.a. Mr. Hostman, (get it? Mr. Hostman? Mr. Postman? Bring me a dream …okay, I’ll stop.) reminds us that the finale will be Sunday and Arie and Jef will be absent from tonight’s tell-all. But we’ll get plenty of Kalon and Ryan. Joy. Before we meet the men, Chris and Emily dish on the season. They start out rehashing Ryan’s fantastic first date and following it up with every awful thing he said all season. I had such high hopes for him in the beginning. And then his ego got bigger than his heart. Minus 7. And then we get a recap of Kalon and Emily’s “West Virginia Hood Rat” send-off. He was absolutely horrifying. Minus 4 for not getting rid of him sooner. Oh, Doug. Poor Doug. And that awful, awful excuse for a kiss. What, is he 12? Minus 2 . Emily has quite the potty mouth, judging by the outtake from her date with Joe. And Travis kept Shelly the Egg in a bed. He even asked her to sing “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.” To the egg. And she didn’t send him home immediately? Minus 8 . Arie’s two younger brothers were peering through the bushes while they made out. Plus 12 . If you want to know why Chris finally went home, look no further than his lack of moves. Dance moves. Oh look! ABC’s plugging the upcoming Bachelor Pad with the one and only Kalon McMahon. And Chris. And was that Single Dad Tony I saw? Finally, Chris calls the guys and their spray tans to the stage! Seriously, the gym, tan, laundry that took place before this reunion show must have been epic. Minus 2 Sean’s the first one to call Emily a goddess. And it only takes about two seconds for John “Wolf” to rip on Kalon for his helicopter entrance. Chris Harrison says that any time you have 25 guys and one hot blonde together, you’ll get “drama, jealousy, and a little bit of crazy.” It’s clear they didn’t like Kalon from the get-go, thought Doug was the House Dad, and thought Ryan was cocky. Plus 12 . Chris says he was immature because he loved Emily so much. All of his man tears were from the heart. Minus 6. He’s still all offended by the talk that 25 year olds weren’t old enough for Emily. The older guys still think he was being ridiculous. Kalon’s convinced his helicopter entrance was completely cool. The guys all call him on it. He says he wasn’t himself after a few weeks and neither was anyone else. Charlie checks him and says he was upset that Kalon stuck around longer than he did because he was himself 100% of the time. Points to Charlie. Plus 8. Apparently, the guys should’ve just found Kalon confident and not narcissistic. Oh, and he’s really good friends with Chris and Tony now that they’ve all done Bachelor Pad together. How…nice? Kalon’s in the hot seat with Chris Harrison. (Does that sound like a late-night talk show or what?) In the recap reel of Kalon’s time on the show, it’s amazing how big of an a$$hole he was. Amazing. Kalon and Chris clarify that he didn’t know that single mom Emily was the bachelorette when they signed up and he felt like backing out after learning that would’ve said more about him than going forward with it. Chris point blank asks Kalon if Kalon thought he was rude to Emily in London. Kalon says “obviously it’s a very unique scenario and some people thrive and some people don’t.” Kalon, THAT IS NOT AN ANSWER. Minus 30. The guys just do not like him. That’s clear. Ryan’s the most spray-tanned of them all tonight and he’s in Chris’ hot seat next. Ryan says he’s confident in himself and that’s part of his success in life. Chris is shaking his head. He clearly disagrees. I disagree with how much bronzer Ryan’s wearing. Minus 12 . Chris asks Chris to clarify why he was shaking his head and Ryan just keeps interrupting him, mostly just to get under Chris’ skin. Chris Harrison asks “Is there a chance that you might just be an arrogant ass?” Ryan’s answer? “No.” Minus 15 . Ryan interrupts contestant Chris a couple more times and then Host Chris lets everyone know that Ryan will not be the next Bachelor. Thank Cheez-Its. Plus 10. Contestant Chris hits the floor. Host Chris reminds us all that this young whippersnapper was the first to say he was falling in love with Emily. He looks grumpy watching through his recap. I guess all those ladies on Bachelor Pad were just rebounds. Minus 3 . And the man tears are on the verge of flowing. Minus 13 . It seems that no one can understand why Sean didn’t make it to the final two. So he’s in the hot seat next. Poor guy. He still has feelings for Emily and never thought she’d send him home. He was ready to be a dad. I feel pretty awful for the dude. They would’ve made some pretty blonde-headed babies together. Oh look! Emily’s here! Tony has to hug her. She better go wipe off those Bachelor Pad cooties. This is the first time she’s seen any of the guys since they were cut. She did the ugly cry when she watched the episode where she had to let Sean go. Then she says “What girl wouldn’t want Sean?” Well, you wouldn’t Emily. Minus 13. Chris repeats everything Sean said, nearly verbatim. Apparently Emily’s really good at opening men’s eyes. Emily addresses the awkward kiss with Doug and then thanks him for reporting on Kalon’s shady behavior. Without him, she could’ve ended up engaged to Kalon! After Kalon spouts off something that was supposed to be an apology, she says he should become a politician. Because he’s really good at bulls******g. Plus 12 Emily! Kalon quips that he wouldn’t have her vote. And we all (did not) guffaw. Chris H. asks Emily about Ryan. They had fun together, but their values just didn’t line up. They seem amicable. Plus 4. The blooper reel reveals more of Emily’s potty mouth. And apparently she likes men who are tattooed and look slightly homeless. The tally so far: EPISODE TOTAL: -57 SEASON TOTAL: +114 Sunday night we’ll find out whether Emily will choose to spend the rest of her 15 minutes of fame life with Arie Luyendyk Jr. or Jef Holm. Which bachelor should Emily choose?

Liam Neeson is back as international badass Bryan Mills in a brand-new trailer for the hotly-awaited ‘Taken’ sequel. By Josh Wigler Liam Neeson in “Taken 2” Photo: Liam Neeson has a very particular set of skills. Skills that make him a nightmare for people like you — unless you’re a fan of ex-CIA operatives who remain unreasonably badass in their golden years. In that case, Neeson is something of a dream come true. The Oscar nominee remains in perfectly hardcore form in the first official trailer for “Taken 2,” the sequel to the 2008 action flick that kick-started a surprising new phase in Neeson’s career. Since his turn as former spy Bryan Mills in the Luc Besson-produced thriller, Neeson has become the go-to guy for older-man-kicks-so-much-ass action movies like “The A-Team,” “Unknown” and “The Grey.” But it’s “Taken” that remains the decisive favorite for Neeson fans, and seeing him run around in that particular world once again is the action-movie equivalent of comfort food: a bit familiar, yes, but gloriously so. Here are five key scenes from the “Taken 2” trailer. A Job for Boris the Blade When you need a vaguely Eastern European bad guy to add gravitas to your film, call Rade Serbedzija. With bad-guy credits including “Snatch,” “24,” “X-Men: First Class” and more, he’s the man for the job. In “Taken 2,” he’ll be the one giving Mills hell, concocting an elaborate scheme to get revenge for his son, who was killed by Mills in the first “Taken” film. “He slaughtered our men,” he scowls in the trailer. “Our brothers. Our sons. We will find him. And we will have our revenge.” Family Reunion Our villain’s vengeance will take him and his men to Istanbul, where Bryan’s ex-wife Lenore (Famke Janssen) and daughter Kim (Maggie Grace) pay him a surprise visit. Bad timing, considering the spit-storm headed Mills’ way. But there’s a silver lining: Bryan’s relationship with his daughter seems much smoother than ever before, and it even looks like he might have another shot at love with Lenore … assuming they survive their next ordeal. Phoning It In The “Taken 2” trailer is fantastically familiar, even if the tables are somewhat reversed this time: It’s not Kim being taken, but Lenore and Mills himself. When he gets on the phone to once again instruct Kim on what to do next, his directions are different, but the tone remains the same. With Mills and Lenore at the mercy of terrorists, it’s going to be a whole new ball game in “Taken 2,” their lives depending heavily on help from … Saving Grace Traditionally the character who mucks everything up for her surrounding cast (see “Lockout,” “Breaking Dawn,” “Lost” and so many more), Maggie Grace will finally get her opportunity to shine as a bona fide badass in “Taken 2.” She’s seen in the trailer jumping from rooftops and facing down guns with (almost) no tears, a marked improvement from the Kim of the last “Taken.” But as she told MTV News just a few weeks ago, Kim is “empowered … [but] she doesn’t morph into La Femme Nikita.” So temper your expectations just a little bit. “You’ll Just Have To Die” Frankly, Kim doesn’t really need to step up her game. Even if he’s captured early on in the film, Neeson’s ex-spook won’t be sitting on the sidelines throughout the proceedings, as the trailer clearly illustrates. He spends the final few seconds of the trailer breaking necks, shooting thugs and making explicit death threats over cell phones, as he’s wont to do. Old dog, same tricks — and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Tell us what you think of the new “Taken 2” trailer in the comments section below! Related Photos ‘Taken 2’ Trailer: Five Key Scenes

‘He heard the record, he loved it and he also played the guitar on it,’ K.R.I.T. tells ‘RapFix Live’ about ‘Praying Man.’ By Rob Markman, with reporting by Sway Calloway Sway Calloway, Big K.R.I.T. and Ed Lover on “RapFix Live” Photo: MTV News Big K.R.I.T. may be a new artist, but the standout Mississippi MC has an old musical soul. On Tuesday, K.R.I.T. released his debut album, Live From the Underground, and while he features quite a few artists on his LP, the one that stands out the most is blues legend B.B. King . “I think doing a record with B.B. King allowed me the opportunity to blend two different generations across the board and make a song that I hope is extremely impactful,” the King Remembered in Time told MTV News correspondent Sway, Ed Lover and Doctor Dre when he appeared on “RapFix Live” on Wednesday. The record is “Praying Man,” a poignant story-driven rap on which K.R.I.T. rhymes from the perspective of three slaves who are facing death. During the first verse he rhymes as a slave hanging from a tree in a noose and in the second he tells the story of a slave jumps off his captive ship into the Atlantic Ocean. On the final verse, K.R.I.T. spits about a man running from a lynch mob. It’s all pretty deep and a far cry from most of today’s rap fare. “All three of these people are dead, but they’re rappin’ to you as if they didn’t know and the praying man that they’re talking about is death coming to take them from their situation,” the producer/MC explained of the track’s concept. “When I was working on the record I was like, ‘Yo, this would be crazy if I got B.B. King on the song.’ ” Krizzle’s wishful thinking eventually turned into a reality. “I was actually able to make it happen. He heard the record, he loved it and he also played the guitar on it. He gave it his own feel as well,” K.R.I.T. said before he confirmed that he will also shoot a video for the song. “I’m excited for people to hear it and when we do shoot a visual, because I know we got to, it gotta be cinematic.” Coming from the South, K.R.I.T., who built his buzz by releasing a trilogy of free mixtapes , felt it was his duty to tell these types of stories on his album after hearing stories about the civil rights movement from his grandmother. “It’s important that I talk about all that. It’s a lot of people that died for me to have the opportunity that I have now, just the freedom,” he said. “It shouldn’t be forgotten as far as the past is concerned.” What is your favorite song off Big K.R.I.T.’s Live From the Underground ?
