Sister Wives star Kody Brown and fourth wife Robyn welcomed their first child together – and his polygamist family’s 17th overall – to the family on Wednesday. Solomon Brown was born at 2:02 a.m. on Wednesday in the family’s home in Las Vegas, Nevada, and he weighed in 9 lbs., 10.5 oz., with a length of 22 inches. He and Robyn are both resting comfortably. Congrats to Kody Brown and the whole family! Robyn’s the one in the middle! Proud papa Kody said, “He’s perfect and we couldn’t be happier.” His controversial family is documented on TLC’s Sister Wives , on which Meri, Janelle and Christine welcomed Robyn to the extended family last year. The family recently left Utah and are struggling with the vast array of changes in their lives, separated in four houses in more-accepting Nevada. Robyn’s pregnancy was the focal point of the third season premiere of the reality show. We anxiously await Solomon’s debut on a future episode. Your thoughts on the Sister Wives crew :
Horror-movie icon ushered in the modern era of slasher films — but is he the best cinematic killer of all time? By Kevin P. Sullivan Michael Myers in “Halloween” Photo: Dimension Films We’re just about halfway through MTV’s Killer Halloween , and the competition is just heating up in the battle to find out which movie murderer tops them all. So far, we’ve profiled Freddy , Jason , Leatherface , Chucky and Ghostface , but now we look at the man who ushered in the modern era of slashers. Which horror-movie baddie has the best personality? Make your pick in our MTV Movies Blog poll! Michael Myers Occupation : Homicidal boy, homicidal adult Weapons : Knife, inability to ever freaking die Archenemy : His family, his psychiatrist, anyone who gets in the way of him killing his family and his psychiatrist Profile : Michael Myers was a bit of a prodigy in the ways of serial killing, changing the game even as a young boy. Pre-teen Michael may have been the first to don a mask — a creepy clown one for his first murder — and go after the babysitter, his sister Judith. He spent the remainder of his youth in an institution for the mentally disturbed under the close observation of Dr. Sam Loomis. After Michael escaped, stealing a mask, jumpsuit and knife from a hardware store, movie serials have never been the same. The target of most of Michael’s deadly attention has been his surviving sister, Laurie, the lead played by Jamie Lee Curtis in the first two films and “Halloween: H20” and Scout Taylor-Compton in the Rob Zombie remakes. The early films simply focused on Michael’s obsession with finding his long-lost baby sister, but later in the series, the true origin of Michael as an embodiment of pure evil added a supernatural element to the villain. There has never been too much to Michael Myers’ tactics. He stalks. He walks. He kills. His style of murder will be remembered for a number of reasons. His mask, an old William Shatner “Star Trek” mask painted white, has become a horror icon. His slow gait and silent disposition directly inspired dozens of imitators — Jason Voorhees, most famously. Modern slasher films owe a debt to Michael Myers and his creator John Carpenter, whose work has affected the genre for generations. Where do you think Michael Myers falls in the scope of horror-movie psychopaths? Let us know in the comments!

But stripping down didn’t compare to swimming in an ice-cold lake or having a meltdown in front of extras, she tells MTV News. By Eric Ditzian Elizabeth Olsen Photo: MTV News On the Upstate New York set of “Martha Marcy May Marlene,” the indie that wowed Sundance earlier this year and is finally hitting theaters Friday, Elizabeth Olsen spent more than a couple of days stripping down — sometimes to jump into an icy cold lake, sometimes to jump someone’s bones. While Olsen admits that those nude scenes were a bit odd to film, she left no doubt that simply diving into the water was far more perilous than doffing her clothes in front of a camera. “The lake was daunting,” she told to MTV News. “Some lake scenes we could only shoot once, because it was physically too cold for a body to be in there very long.” By contrast, Olsen looks back at her nude scenes as all part of the “Martha Marcy” job — one that might earn her an Oscar nomination for a stunning performance as a woman who flees a cult and lands at her sister’s lake house, yet is besieged by remembrances of her traumatic past. “Everyone’s always put in some sort of weird situation when you’re making a movie,” she said. “I didn’t treat [the nude scenes] any differently. The only thing we treated differently was that our first [assistant director] would swap out with our second AD, who was a female, and she’d call the shots.” Even the lake scenes, though, don’t count as the most difficult she took on. That distinction goes to an astonishing, single-take party scene in which Olsen’s character slowly builds from hesitating partygoer into out-of-control, vocal-cord-shredding meltdown mode. “What was hard about that is that it was one shot, and it does have a climax to it. It was also our first experience with lots of extras, and these aren’t people who are actors. They’re just people in town who wanted to be in a movie, so they love talking to you in between takes. That was distracting. Personally, that was my most difficult scene to film.” Despite the intensity of the role, Olsen said the character didn’t stay with her after she finished shooting last summer. “It wasn’t very difficult to leave behind,” she explained. “I always keep myself very separate from a character, not trying to think that I’m the character or all those things, because especially in this movie, that’d be very bizarre. What I did leave behind, which I really missed and what was really sad, is all of these people became really, really close friends of mine. Thank God they all live in Brooklyn! So we’ve been able to hang out all the time. We did have a very special experience making the movie.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Martha Marcy May Marlene.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

We’re glad Rozay is taking his recent health scare more seriously than he seemed to initially. According to TMZ , Rozay has cancelled the second show he had scheduled for this weekend. With his health still a major concern, Rick Ross has decided to play it easy this weekend … rescheduling his L.A. concert for 2012 so he can focus on his recovery. As TMZ first reported, Rick suffered two seizures last week before a performance in Memphis — which he canceled — and promoters think it’s still too soon for Ross to get back on stage. Promoters believe Ross needs more time to get better — so they contacted his people and the two camps agreed to reschedule the L.A. performance to January. Promoters also tell TMZ, “Pushing [Ross] to do a show that he was not prepared to do was not beneficial to anyone.” Yesterday, our sister site HipHopWired.com reported that Rozay’s Atlanta performance, which was scheduled for this Friday as part of Georgia State University homecoming festivities had also been cancelled. While Ross has yet to speak about his health and there are still no details about exactly what caused him to have two seizures in one day , at least three of his friends have revealed in recent interviews that they are encouraging him to chill and focus on his health, and that he is absolutely taking it light.
Yes, we said $201K…in one month!!! A woman in Florida recently bought her brother a phone and put him on her plan. But little did she know that her brother’s two-week trip to Canada would result in a 43-page bill for more than $201,000. “I was freaking out. I was shaking, crying, I couldn’t even talk that much on the phone. I was like my life is over!” The woman tells WSVN-TV about her reaction to the mammoth bill. Apparently what had happened was that her brother had not turned the data roaming off on his phone during his trip to Canada. More than 2,000 texts and a number of downloaded videos later and — at $10/megabyte — you end up with a phone bill larger than many mortgages. While T-Mobile says it sent several texts to the brother alerting him of the rates, the sister believes she should have been given a heads-up at some point before things got into six-digit territory. “Wouldn’t you let me know as the primary holder and they are saying no we respect your privacy. What privacy? That is my account,” she says. Though it had no obligation to do so, T-Mobile eventually decided to slash the bill to $2,500 and gave the customer six months to pay off that amount. $201,005.44 to be exact. That’s crazy!! Source
It was bash Teresa Giudice night at The Real Housewives of New Jersey Reunion but she certainly invited the abuse. THG breaks it all down in our + or – review … Jacqueline Laurita bowed out of the event. Minus 5 . I always thought the players were contractually obligated to show up for these things, even when they all hated one another and looked like fools at the end. But it looked like Bravo let her slide. The turmoil had something to do with Teresa and an event that took place in season four which was currently being filmed. I suppose that’s more reason to tune in next season. Caroline earned a Plus 12 when she admitted she was mean to Melissa and Kathy Waklie at the start of the season. She had judged them on what Teresa had told her before ever having met them. That was unfair but at least she owned up to it. Teresa still swore what she wrote in her cookbook was nothing but a joke. She won’t say which of her three sister in laws she was insulting and sees nothing wrong with throwing out barbs about Caroline’s son. Minus 8 . There was nothing funny in what she wrote and she can’t see anyone’s opinion but her own. We had to sit through yet one more showing of the christening debacle. Minus 5 . I hope to never have to watch that nonsense again. At least the housewives had the decency to lapse into stunned silence after it was shown. Melissa Gorga earned a Plus 10 for admitting that her husband helped escalate the fight. That’s progress. Another Plus 10 to Joe Gorga who supposedly told Caroline he regretted his actions and knew he was going to get a public beating after it was shown. Of course Caroline was blunt as ever and agreed with him. When asked, Kathy said that Teresa and Joe Gorgas’ tempers were acceptable. That they’re just passionate people. Bull. Minus 11 . They’re adults who should know better than to scream, curse, and throw things like foul mouthed toddlers having a tantrum. I don’t mean to be the grammar nazi but what is with the “yous”? Listening to the Housewives families speak was like watching My Cousin Vinny week after week. Minus 10 . I almost couldn’t believe that Teresa Giudice could tell Melissa she wasn’t a good wife because she didn’t invite herself to the premiere party while she was in the hospital with a newborn, then went on to accuse her of marrying Joe for his money and followed it up by saying Melissa was the one ruining things. “We’re in a good place. Why are you going back there?” Does the woman not listen to what she says. She’s the one who was dragging out past history. Minus another 10 . Did anyone else get the feeling that Teresa’s completely clueless about her family’s legal and financial troubles or that bankruptcy fraud could end them up in federal prison? Her “call my lawyer” response to Andy was the smartest thing she said all night. Plus 8 . Plus 15 to Caroline Manzo who called the entire conversation a “whirlwind of stupid.” Yup. That about sums it up. We’ll be back for part two next week. In the meantime, here’s where the points land … EPISODE TOTAL : +6 . SEASON TOTAL: -68 .
Who says you can’t go home as a polygamist again? This week on TLC’s Sister Wives, Kody Brown and his four wives paid a visit to his hometown (Lovell, Wyoming), which was a pretty big deal for the Brown Bomber and Co. because it was his “first time going back openly as a polygamist.” Think TLC encouraged/forced that field trip at all? Kody was hella nervous, understandably, because when you go in and have the “Scarlet ‘P’ on your shoulder, you just don’t know if people will ostracize you or not.” Most of us will never have that issue, but the sentiment rings true. By and large, they were well received, which was nice. Even if you don’t like what they do, they seen like nice people and are basically harmless, so c’est la vie. A few people even congratulated Robyn on her pregnancy, while their critics basically concurred that these were good people who just had the “wrong idea.” One woman was nervous that people might think that Lovell, Wyoming was the birthplace of polygamy. Not the case, sweetheart, it’s just the birthplace of TLC’s polygamist reality show … so basically the same thing in this era. At a reunion of Kody Brown’s high school friends, which TLC clearly had no role in pulling together, they regaled the wives with stories of their husband in H.S. He liked to be the center of attention, apparently. Says a lot. When you’ve got four adoring wives and 17 kids clamoring for your time and love day in day out, that’s one way to be the focal point of your own little universe. Kody’s best friend Ken had an interesting take on the Browns’ lifestyle: “We feel like he’s got an issue come Judgment day,” he said. “If he goes to hell, so be it.” Pretty much, Ken. Pretty much. Apparently some people thought Kody was “flamboyantly gay” in high school. The reason for that theory was that he wore “tight pants” and he “flipped” his hair. It turns out he was just ahead of his time, though, trying to be fashionable as a man. In this day and age, we would merely term him … well, something else. We never really got the gay vibe from the Kode-man, but the four wives will certainly dispel that notion fast. How much more straight can a guy be, right?! He marries women and fathers their kids left and right! Speaking of which, Kody and Robyn plan to name their son Solomon. That sounds like a nice name. Thoughts on this installment of Sister Wives? How do you think Kody’s trip home went? Do you like the name Solomon? Vote in our poll and comment below! What do you think of Kody Brown and Sister Wives?
Kelly Rowland’s “Lay It On Me” video made women jealous and men drool when it dropped yesterday. But several viewers noticed that the clip bore some similarities to one-hit wonder Livvi Franc’s 2009 video “Now I’m That Chick.” However, before you go accusing Kelly of stealing, copying, and plagiarizing (like her sister Beyonce), blame Sarah Chatfield – the woman behind the camera who directed both videos! Was Sarah out of ideas or something? She should be ashamed of herself! WATCH! 9 Reasons Kelly Rowland’s “Lay It On Me” Video Is A WIN! Kelly Rowland: ” I Was Embarrassed To Call Off My Wedding”
My name is Florencia, I’m an Argentinian Belieber and I’ve had TWO Bieber Experiences. Firstly, I want to start telling you when I saw Justin Bieber for the first time. I remember it was the summer of 2007. There was a family meeting at home and all my cousins were with me. Then at 2am, when everybody else in my family was sleeping, I started chatting with one of my cousins. We were bored, so she told me, “Let’s watch some videos. I got good ones to show you,” of course I was like, “Ok, whatever.” She sent me many links, when, finally she texted me, “You must see this vid!” I clicked on the link and there was Justin, a 12 year old cute guy, singing with his heart and soul. I instantly fell in love with him, his voice, his hair, his eyes, his talent. F rom that day on, I’ve had Bieber Fever. My first Bieber Experience happened in 2009. I created my Twitter account and it was totally dedicated to Justin. I didn’t give up, I sent Justin as many tweets as I could but nothing happened . Then, THIS year, on March 15th, I went to the cinema with my Belieber-Friends to see, “Never Say Never 3D” for the SECOND time in a month. Before the movie started, I tweeted something silly to Justin, I knew he was “not going to notice me this time either” But, surprisingly, when I got home, I found out that I had like 200 more followers! I checked out my profile and, JUSTIN WAS FOLLOWING ME! I freaked out, cried, jumped and felt my heart go knock-knock! My next Bieber Experience, happened on October 12th, 2011. The tour dates were already in BieberFever.com, and as I was a member of the page, I got pre-sale tickets, row 22, VIP Platinum. I was so happy my dream was going to come true! I’ve waited many months. I woke up, took a bath, got my hair and make-up done, dressed up in purple and prepared the posters for JB. At almost 4:00 in the afternoon, my mom drove my sister and I to the River Plate Stadium. I felt butterflies in my stomach! We arrived to our section and we were now seating. Suddenly, the countdown started, I shouted like I never did before! T he concert was AMAZING and it was the BEST DAY of my life! I truly had an INCREDIBLE time there! Justin was singing “U Smile”, when a security guard came up to me and two more girls. We were so excited that we asked him if we could meet Justin and he said, “Yeah. Meet me at the VIP Platinum entrance when the concert finishes” WE FREAKED OUT. T he show ended and we went straight to the VIP Platinum entrance. We waited for the guard, but he NEVER showed up! We felt so disappointed and devastated! We decided to walk out of the stadium but we were kinda lost, because there were LOADS of Beliebers, and we couldn’t see our parents! We stepped into the parking zone. The Bieber truck’s was there! Anyways, I was NOT paying attention because behind the guard, there was a huge window, and from that window you could see the BACKSTAGE area! I walked a little bit closer to the policeman and right behind him, there was Kenny, DJ Tay James, and Justin! We four started shouting crazily, “I LOVE YOU JUSTIN!”. He noticed, turned around and looked straight at us, we screamed even louder, and he smiled. Right after that, Justin left and even though we couldn’t take a picture with him, it was the BEST DAY OF MY LIFE! -@florste19 Original post: My name is Florencia, I’m an Argentinian Belieber and…
