Teen Mom Leah Messer Is Moving In With Boyfriend Jeremy Calvert!

Posted: 29 Oct 2011 10:20 AM PDT

Guys, guess what? It looks like Leah Messer has gotten through the whole mess with her ex-husband Corey Simms and come out just fine on the other side! Contrary to popular belief, she HASN'T been dating anything and everything male that has crossed her path; according to Starcasm, since her and Corey the Cad's split, she only went on a handful of casual dates with one dude (Dusty Haas, who was already a family friend anyway) before finding her current flame, Jeremy Calvert.

Jeremy, by the way, seems to make her really happy. This is nice to know, given how much shit she's been dealing with over the past year between daughter Ali's health problems and her disastrous marriage. And guess what? It turns out that Jeremy makes her so happy that they're moving in together! Starcasm managed to assemble a bunch of Twitter exchanges that tell the story. Earlier this week, Jeremy Tweeted, "@TM2LeahDawn one more day and we will have are own house baby :-)" (His grammar, by the way. Sorry). To which Leah replied:

And she had some words for the naysayers, too:

Then, later on, she Tweeted this:

With the following picture:

Long story short? It looks like Leah and Jeremy are shacking up. Now, just to cover all our bases, yes, it DOES seem sort of fast. But again, to be honest, I'm just sort of glad that Leah finally seems to be happy again. Leah thinks he's great with her two girls, too, so hoorah for that.

We've still got lots of questions about it now, but never fear: It's distinctly possible that we'll get to see a lot of this first-hand in the next season of Teen Mom 2. Check out that camera mounted in the top right corner of the U-Haul pic. MTV at work? Perhaps.

What do you guys think? Is Leah moving in with her boyfriend a good idea or a terrible one?

Video: Cute Little Grandma Reads Snooki’s Tweets

Posted: 29 Oct 2011 07:15 AM PDT

I don’t really know much about the people who made this video other than the fact that they call themselves Booya Pictures, but really, there’s not a whole lot you need to know about this video to enjoy it. It’s a grandma reading some choice Tweets from Snooki. And it is quite possibly the GREATEST THING EVER.

The grandma in question sounds like she might be European, which just makes it even more adorable. Furthermore, Snooki isn’t the only Twitter user to have gotten the grandma treatment; she’s done it before to the likes of Tyler the Creator. Who else thinks ever celebrity/personality/famewhore/whatever should have their Tweets read by this cute little grandma? Because I sure do!

Crushable Presents: Every Celebrity Gets The Halloween Costume He Or She Deserves

Posted: 28 Oct 2011 04:02 PM PDT


This week, we’ve seen all manner of celebrities in Halloween costumes of their choosing. That’s all well and good, but what if they wore costumes of our choosing? That would be more fun, wouldn’t it? In an effort to visualize what that would look like, I’ve asked our resident graphics whiz Emma Charlton to Photoshop celebs into the costumes I would have them wear, were it up to me. From Kim Kardashian to Ryan Gosling, each celebrity gets the costume he or she deserves.

Lazy Last-Minute Halloween Costumes

Posted: 28 Oct 2011 03:04 PM PDT

So it’s Friday afternoon, you’ve got Halloween parties tonight and/or tomorrow, and absolutely no idea for your costume. Never fear—we’ve got you covered even if you’re reading this from home, school, or on your phone as you walk down the street. Here are some ideas of simple, last-minute supplies that will make passable costumes for friends’ parties. (As long as you don’t mind a few puns…)

At Home

1. Live with your boyfriend? Have a brother or a male roommate? Then just steal a geeky T-shirt from his drawer, pair it with jeans, and bam—you’re a character from The IT Crowd or The Big Bang TheoryAs io9 points out, that’s really all you need for a no-fuss Halloween costume.

2. Alternatively, all you need is a printer, because we’ve got just the mask for you!

3. A cool thing about being in college (or even high school, if you have new friends) is that people don’t necessarily know everything about you. For instance, which sport you did when you were younger. As long as you still have any of that gear — soccer ball, tennis racquet — you can pass as an athlete. Bonus points if you actually resemble Maria Sharapova.

On-Campus

1. Take a trip into your college or university’s bookstore. Since this place is a haven for freshmen and parents looking to snatch up as many school-branded products as possible, it’s well-stocked. Grab T-shirts, banners, and hats related to all of the hobbies and clubs you aren’t a part of; loaded down with more college paraphernalia than you ever thought you’d wear in one place, you’ll be The Overzealous Undergrad. (At NYU, we lucked out with the snarky NYU Football: Undefeated Since 1831 T-shirt.) Plus, since it’s from your school, it’s still a useful investment in case you ever actually go to a men’s volleyball game or fencing match.

2. I can’t take credit for this one from Endless Simmer: Hit up the dining hall or whatever grocery shop is on-campus and buy a bunch of single-serving cereal boxes. After you (and the lucky friends you’ve invited) eat all the cereal, tape the boxes to your body and stick plastic knives into each one. Get it? Cereal killer.

Out and About

1. Call up a girlfriend, bundle up in scarves and coats, grab coffees, and start talking a mile a minute about pop culture—obscure pop culture. You’re the Gilmore Girls, of course.

2. Duck into a toy store and buy a package of those little green army men like the ones you see in Toy Story, plus some sturdy duct tape. This costume you don’t want to apply until you’re en route to your party, just to make sure everything stays in place. Once everything’s taped down — and bear in mind I stole this from a woman I heard talking about it in the elevator the other day — you’re a guy magnet!

Read Seth Green’s Adorable Letter To His Younger Self

Posted: 28 Oct 2011 02:45 PM PDT

We can’t help but get a bit choked up even when reading letters that celebrities wrote to normal people. So when you find something like Robot Chicken creator/star Seth Green writing a letter to his 16-year-old self, it’s extra sweet. The actor’s submission is part of a book called Dear Me; in it, Seth addresses his “funny name,” family troubles, and the general awkwardness that probably helped him be the comedic star he is today. Here’s an excerpt:

Let me just say this – it gets easier. I know right now it sucks, family unit dissolving, personal identity in crisis, constant reminders that you don't belong where you are – but it gets easier. Hard work pays off, and you will find people and places that allow and encourage you to be the best YOU that you can, so seek them out.

Plus you get much less awkward. You will literally wake up one day and realize you don't have to impress anyone to have them like you. Don't try so hard, and things will get easier.

Don't quit. Don't leave any vision unrealized. Believe in yourself. Actually, I can't stress that enough – no one will believe in you if you don't truly believe in yourself. So work through all the self-doubt and self-loathing and get down to business. You will work for at least the next 30 years, each year harder than the last. I know that doesn't sound so great, but you will make lots of your own stuff and work closely with almost every one of your heroes and they will enjoy it, so … that takes the sting out, right?

Seth has had a pretty incredible career: He’s run the gamut from the idiotic Chris on Family Guy to misunderstood son Scott Evil in the Austin Powers movies to the hilariously serious werewolf Oz on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He’s even played the asshole version of himself on Entourage! If that’s not how you know you’ve made it, I don’t know what to tell you.

Crushable Quoteable: Chet Haze Explains Where His Nickname Comes From

Posted: 28 Oct 2011 02:47 PM PDT

My main guy Chet Haze (aka Chet Hanks, Tom Hanks‘ rapper son) is featured in an interview! In it, he talks college with a fellow Northwester student about college life and explains the origin of his nickname:

“I took the name back as a kid. When people didn’t know who I was in terms of who my dad was, I wouldn’t tell them. I would tell people my name is Chet Haze, because it sounds like Hanks, so if I slipped up–If you say Haze, it almost sounds like Hanks. So when I started [my music career], that’s what came to mind. Like, what is the name I go by when I’m just doin’ me, you know what I’m saying?”

Oh man, that’s actually kind of sad! A kid who doesn’t want to use his famous dad’s name to impress other people or to launch a music career or get his videos all over the web or anything like that. Buck up, Chet Haze — you can go by any name you want with us.

Taylor Swift’s Nashville Home Is Surprisingly Fancy

Posted: 28 Oct 2011 02:30 PM PDT

There’s a little photo tour of Taylor Swift‘s Nashville home going on at The Berry, and my first thought is that the house is surprisingly sophisticated for a 21-year-old woman. But then again, Taylor Swift isn’t just any 21-year-old woman — she’s had her heart broken at least 150 by now (I’ve been counting). Take a look at Taylor’s upscale Southern home.

Stuntman Dies On The Set Of The Expendables 2

Posted: 28 Oct 2011 02:24 PM PDT

This is awful: A stuntman working on The Expendables 2 was killed when a stunt went wrong yesterday in Bulgaria. The scene involved an explosion in a rubber boat, and another stuntman was injured, though he’s in stable condition. None of the movie’s stars — Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Jason Statham – were nearby for the accident; this was the second unit filming, whereas the first unit was at a resort two hours away.

No info has been released on the man who died, but the production company Nu Image/Millennium Films released this statement:

It is with great regret that we confirm this unfortunate accident. Our hearts go out to the families and those on the production affected by this tragedy. The filmmakers are working closely with the authorities in responding to and investigating this accident.

There have been several famous stories of stunts gone wrong. The most well-known is when Brandon Lee, star of The Crow, died eight days before filming ended; what was supposed to be a gun with blanks somehow had a bullet lodged in, which hit him in the abdomen. Another more ironic one is when Michelle Yeoh got injured in a movie called The Stuntwoman, where she played… a stuntwoman.

All in all, this has not been a good week for The Expendables sequel: On Tuesday, a writer named Marcus Webb filed a lawsuit against Stallone — who co-wrote the original movie — saying that the screenplay copies a short story and script that he filed with the U.S. patent office in 2006.

As far as we know, the movie will still open on August 17, 2012.
