Kyrie Irving Punks Pick-Up Game As 'Uncle Drew'

Posted 2 hours ago by in Funny, Sports, Video


MTV Clutch learned NBA Rookie of the Year Kyrie Irving has a good sense of humor when The Check-In caught up with him during this year's All-Star Weekend. However, we had no idea that the 20-year-old Cleveland Cavaliers star has an Eddie Murphy-like ability to shape-shift into an old-man character.

Irving teamed up with Pepsi Max to prank a pick-up basketball game in Bloomfield, NJ. Before arriving, Irving sits through hours of movie make-up magic to become "Uncle Drew" -- a white-haired old man who won't stop running his mouth from the sidelines. When there's an injury on the court and the game needs another player to resume, Drew's "nephew" suggests his uncle should play. At first, the other players think it's a joke as Irving plays up the feeble old man routine. Before long though, the star point guard begins busting out the moves that made him the first overall pick in the NBA Draft.

Kris Humphries Embraces His Inner Douchebag [Video]

If the Summer Olympics rewarded teams for being douchebags, Team USA would easily win the gold. While the likes of Kevin Durant and Derrick Rose are leading the way for humble stars, the NBA still has a lion's share of d-bags and nobody leads the pack quite like the Nets' Kris Humphries. Between the caveman face and the fling with the Broad with the Big Ass, Humphries has built an impressive resume. The power forward gets booed by his hometown fans... even though he was easily their second-best player last season with Brook Lopez on injury reserve. We're looking forward to the Nets' move to Brooklyn where Kris can box-out hipsters or steal a kid's hot dog at Coney Island.

While his missteps have been many, it looks like Humphries at least has a sense of humor about it and shot a video with Funny Or Die mocking himself. This may be his first step on the road to redemption... or it may just be more fuel for fans' hatred.

Off-Season Activities For The Cast Of 'Guy Code'

Posted 5/15/12 11:30 am EST by in Comedy, MTV2, Video


Like professional athletes training for a grinding schedule, the cast of MTV2's "Guy Code" spent the past several months sharpening their wits for the upcoming season of the show. After reviewing their off-season training regimens, we're pretty much positive they'll be ready to dish more great "Code." For example, Jon Gabrus traveled to the Middle East  for a massively unhealthy offering from a domestic fast food chain--Pizza Hut. Because why not? And Melanie Iglesias double-teamed the "Cat Daddy" dance, from which we gleaned a simple but important mathematical equation, below. Check it out.

When DJ Khaled says he's the best, he means it. The DJ/Label Executive/Uncontested King of Collaborations can corral any number of rappers into a room and make one big-ass track. It's an art very few have, but many try to emulate. His collaboration roster reads like the red carpet guest list at the opening night of the 40/40 Club. From "We Takin' Over" with guests like Lil Wayne, Rick Ross and T.I. to "Go Hard" with Kanye West and T-Pain, then "All I Do Is Win" with Snoop Dogg and Ludacris back around to "Take It To the Head" with Nicki Minaj and Chris Brown. We know there were a million other guests on these songs. Call this a rough list. DJ Khaled knows what he's doing. While he was on set for MTV's "Hip Hop Squares," Khaled let us in on a few secrets to the success of his collaborations. DJs listen up.

"Hip Hop Squares" premieres Tuesday, May 22 at 11p/10c on MTV2.

Exclusive Clip: Metta World Peace's Reaction On 'Punk'd'

Posted 5/11/12 10:00 am EST by in Celebs, Sports, TV, Video


Last night, as the Los Angeles Lakers were getting punked by the Denver Nuggets to force game seven, Metta World Peace (the man formerly known as Ron Artest) was "Punk'd" by Dax Shepard. We won't give away the prank in case you haven't seen it, but it involves road rage. What? World Peace? Road rage? C'mon don't be a dick, you're not surprised. Let's just all agree that it takes balls to punk a man who has stormed into the stands in a blind rage, has his own highlight reel of villainous comic book smackdowns and also does a mean cha-cha. Why don't you also make fun of his rapping while you're at it?

Luckily, Dax is a "Punk'd" veteran (it's actually where he got his start) and he came out unscathed, as you can see in this exclusive clip of MWP's reaction. Nothing is safe from "Punk'd," not even World Peace.

With the 2012 Stanley Cup Finals just around the corner, the NHL post season has already produced some heavy action in the hits department. Bitter rivalry matchups combined with the will to win is the perfect recipe for a physical game. The intensity is high with the Cup on the line, and the most skilled goal scorers in the world are left with very little room to execute the crucial plays that advance their team to the next round.

We couldn't wait for the end of the season, so here is our list of the top six bone crushing hits so far of the 2012 Stanley Cup playoffs.

Videos: 8 Zip-Line Fails

Posted 5/10/12 2:45 pm EST by in Funny, Video


Summer is just around the corner, and that means fun-but-secretly-annoying outdoor activities like hiking, going to the beach, going to the park for a picnic and zip-lining. As for zip-lining, there are just so many ways for it to go wrong. "South Park" recently flayed the recreational activity (with the help of diarrhea and herpes) and it was hilarious, naturally. But sometimes, all you need to make fun of zip-lining is zip-lining itself. Or, rather, the idiots who can't manage to hang on to a handlebar for 10 seconds as they careen from point A to point B at somewhat underwhelming speeds.

It seems there are two options when zip-lining: go pro or go the backwoods bootleg route. The professional route offers scenic views, a gentle breeze in your face and absolutely no rush. The homemade kind offers an element of danger and the prospect of imminent death and views of trodden, muddy forest paths.  So...what's the allure again? The eight people in the following zip-line fail videos surely didn't find out. If "South Park" didn't dissuade you from zip-lining, this list will. Read More...

By now you know who won the great fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Miguel Cotto. You know that Justin Bieber carried a couple championship belts into the ring, which we can't even begin to process until we've developed a larger cerebral cortex thanks to  a few more millennia of evolution. But you don't know what it's like to be a high-roller on fight night in Vegas on Cinco de Mayo.

While you were waking up in a pile of margarita mix and half-eaten burritos, the well-connected Datwon Thomas was in Vegas for the fight, gaining VIP access to all the sweatiest clubs and celebrity hotspots. Lucky for you, Datwon is a generous man and has decided to share his adventures so that you can get a taste of the baller life.

You saw the carnage in the ring, now see the carnage on the strip Sunday at 11/10c on MTV2's "Sucker Free Countdown."

Tim Burton And The Legend Of His Dorm Room Door

Posted 5/7/12 11:00 am EST by in Interview, Movies, TV, Video

Tim Burton's films balance absurdism with unsettling imagery, so it's no surprise he's a (crazy-coiffed) godhead to film students across the country. Which is why mtvU hooked up a lucky CalArts (Burton's alma mater) student for "#Ask" to interview the prolific director about his latest movie, an adaptation of the late '60s TV series "Dark Shadows." The film of the same name looks to carry on Burton's tradition, fusing vampire elements with disco days, and features longtime collaborator Johnny Depp again donning white makeup like a new Beetlejuice.

In this preview of the interview, Burton addresses a longstanding legend regarding himself and a California Institute of the Arts dorm door, a myth that's been whispered throughout the halls of the school for decades. Burton explains how his job as a carpenter who didn't know carpentry gives credence to the tale. As for the answer, well, he's unsurprisingly cryptic.

Check it out, and be sure to catch the full interview today, May 7 on mtvU.

"Dark Shadows" is in theaters Friday.
