Watch Out Bieber, Kailyn's Son Isaac Is A Pop Star In The Making [Video]

Posted 6 hours ago by Rebecca Brown in Teen Mom 2, Top TV Shows

If parents are as instrumental in fostering their children's interests as the experts claim, then "Teen Mom 2" fans have Kailyn's ex-boyfriend, Jo, to thank for providing his son with both the lyrical range and the confidence to make it as a young--very young--pop star. While Jo, who raps under the name N.I.C.K. b, says he turned to music as a form of self-expression, baby Isaac seems to have a simpler motive. Kid just wants to sing!

Earlier this week, Kailyn uploaded a marvelous YouTube video of Isaac going all acapella to what sounds like recording artist Dev's "In the Dark." He's pretty close to nailing the "Ooh la la" bridge, and hits the "Dancing in the dark" line with some serious commitment and gusto. A pretty solid effort for an amateur!

We'd never claim to be audiophiles, but we wouldn't be surprised if Isaac eventually teamed up with his dad in the recording studio for a collabo. Now that would be one for the cameras.

Check out Isaac's chops:

The Best 'Snooki & JWOWW' One-Liners From The Series Premiere

Posted 7 hours ago by Tina Smithers in Snooki & JWOWW, Top TV Shows

Sure, we all have a few funny one-liners in us, but you probably won't argue when we say that Snooki and Jenni have mastered the art form. Check out a few of our favorite snort-tastic phrases from last week's series premiere of "Snooki & JWOWW," and make sure to tune in tonight at 10:30/9:30c for another round!

"See, I think kosher food is, like, organic, healthy food. But Jewish people eat organic food, too. So I feel like it's all in the same." -Snooki
When Nicole broke the news to her mother that she's finally ready to move to the big city (sort of--it is still Jersey, Snooks), Mama Polizzi kindly reminded her baby girl about the trials and tribulations of grocery shopping. "Is kosher the right word for Jenni?" Snooki asked. Memo to little S: JWOWW didn't get her rock-solid bod from eating chopped liver.

Tyler Doesn't Have High Hopes For His Father's Return [Bonus Scene]

Posted 10 hours ago by Rebecca Brown in Teen Mom, Top TV Shows

Over time, Tyler has learned not to let the actions of his father, Butch, affect him emotionally and to set low expectations. During Episode 3 of "Teen Mom," the graduating high-school senior managed to keep his head high after discovering his dad couldn't attend the ceremony--after all, it wasn't a huge surprise. Their parenting role-reversal has always been a challenge, and when Butch was released from jail during Episode 4 and moved back in with Tyler and Catelynn, Ty had to resume the responsibilities of the father figure...again.

In this bonus scene from the episode, the young couple waits for Butch to return home so he can join them for dinner. It's only been a few days since Butch came to live with them and he's already MIA, but Catelynn tries to remain optimistic that he'll eventually show up and puts a plate of food for him in the fridge. Tyler seems to be feeling less positive, though, and worry begins to take over. They're giving Butch until 11pm; after that, they're locking the front door.

Connect The Crocadillies And Pickles To Score On Snooki's New Puzzle App!

Posted 11 hours ago by Matthew Scott Donnelly in Jersey Shore, Snooki & JWOWW, Top TV Shows

Snooki's used to playing Shore Store boss Danny like a fiddle, and now, the "Jersey Shore" and "Snooki & JWOWW" star is challenging anyone with an iPhone or iPad to play her rebooted version of the classic "Bejeweled." "Snooki Bling Bling" is available now for download, but be warned: If you consider getting your virtual hands on the app anytime soon, you can kiss Thursday morning (and...afternoon) productivity goodbye. FOCUS, MATT.

The game calls players to line up--and thereby eliminate--three or more of the same...uhh...blings?...to keep a steady stream of uprising Snooki-centric treasures from reaching the top of the screen. From Crocadillies to diamond rings, pickles to boomboxes, there's no doubt the game belongs to Nicole Polizzi. But remember, if you don't keep things moving, "Party's here!" will quickly become "Party's over!" And just when things were getting good...

'Real World' Poll: Will Brandon Stick Out The Whole Season?

Posted 23 hours ago by Matthew Scott Donnelly in Real World, Real World: St. Thomas, Top TV Shows

We've seen it from Irene in Seattle, Erika in D.C. and Shauvon in Sydney--sometimes, when the going gets tough on "Real World," housemates pack it up and head home. Generally speaking, though, the red flags don't go up on move-in day, and when Brandon already seemed steeped in insecurity before he saw his first St. Thomas sunrise, it seemed like a solid indicator he might not be able to stick out his stay in the Virgin Islands.

This season's Boston representative was all smiles when he took his initial steps across the cast's own private island (seriously...?), but after some heavy drinking, his emotions came out. Brandon had a tough time watching Laura, his crush, flirt with Trey, and continued to lament how he'd fallen short of the "All-American Boy" benchmark in a drunken diatribe directed at Robb. And when Trey, Laura and Swift discovered Brandon's notebook, which spilled over with ominous sentiments, things seemed more dire than any of his new cast mates had expected.

The 'Real World' Couples Have Formed! Which Has The Most Promise?

Posted 23 hours ago by Rebecca Brown in Real World, Real World: St. Thomas, Top TV Shows

During each season of "Real World," there are inevitably roommates that fall for each other, and based on the intel we gathered from our helpful little Spy Cam, we knew the crushes this time around would be aplenty. BUT, we had no idea that everyone (well, except for poor Brandon) was going to pair up during tonight's "St. Thomas" premiere.

It may be too soon to place bets, but if you had to (and we're saying you do!), which of the three (or four, if you're still rooting for Laura and Brandon) couples would you put your money on? Let's take a look at our current match-ups, shall we?

Robb and Marie
Perhaps it's because she insulted him within the first few minutes of meeting him (remember the ginger comment?), or because she kinda-sorta got the thumbs up from his parents (despite cursing in front of his younger sister), but whatever the reason, Marie and her fellow Goon Squad co-founder hit it off famously. The two were the last people ~~standing~~ drinking in the house and seemed to have formed a legitimate bond. She might feel differently about Robb in the morning when she learns that he was behind the peanut butter stunt, but she can't get too angry, right? Hakuna Matata!

Jake Wants To DTR With Jenna On 'Awkward.' [Sneak Peek]

Posted 6/27/12 5:07 pm EST by Rebecca Brown in Awkward, Top TV Shows

When we last saw Jenna Hamilton with her charming winter formal date, Jake, she had just made out with him on her front porch...and then again in her foyer. Their interest in one another was undeniable, so we imagine that going into Season 2 of "Awkward," the two Palos Hills likebirds will frolic through the hallways coated in their adolescent hormones. But some steamy on-campus PDA with Jenna might not be enough for Rosati; he's had strong feelings for her for awhile now...

In the below sneak peek of Thursday's premiere, Jake lets it be known that he wants more from Miss Hamilton. It's the night before Christmas and Jake tells the object of his affection that he has a special gift for her that will arrive via email. A link to sold-out concert tickets? Nope. A Groupon for a 5-course dinner at some swanky farm-to-table restaurant? Not exactly. He wants to make their relationship official--online--and sends Jenna a request. Will she accept his offer to be his lady, or run from the social label? You better tune in to find out.

Scott, Allison And Stiles Band Together To Protect Jackson On 'Teen Wolf' [Sneak Peek]

Posted 6/27/12 3:15 pm EST by Matthew Scott Donnelly in Teen Wolf, Top TV Shows

Above all else, Beacon Hills High School student Jackson Whittemore wanted the werewolf's bite, and this season on "Teen Wolf," he finally got it. He also got sentenced to life as an occasional human/lizard hybrid when the transformation went awry, and is now being chased around by the modern day equivalent of pitchforks and torches. And just when the bully might have thought he was done for, it looks like those he pushed around will stand in his corner.

Scott, Allison and Stiles try to cultivate a plan to protect the surly student in this sneak peek of Monday night's all-new episode. It seems very few people want to spare the guy's life out of fear the Kanima can still do damage, but Scott refuses to see Jackson go down without first knowing he exhausted every opportunity he had to guard him. "If we can save him, we should try," Scott says.

An Adoption Support Group Meeting Makes Catelynn Emotional [Sneak Peek]

Posted 6/27/12 12:58 pm EST by Rebecca Brown in Teen Mom, Top TV Shows

It's remarkable the way Catelynn continues to grow and learn from her decision to form an adoption plan for Carly, but as we saw in the Season 4 premiere episode of "Teen Mom," coping with the absence of her daughter has been an ongoing battle. Sure, there are plenty of other serious matters happening in the present to steal away her and Tyler's attention (like Butch's release from jail), but there are also moments when a slew of what-ifs flood their minds and they return to a place filled with guilt and sadness.

In this sneak peek of Tuesday's new episode, Catelynn and her encouraging grandmother attend an adoption support group meeting to share their thoughts and feelings. It's been well over two years since the young mom placed her biological daughter with Brandon and Teresa, but Catelynn takes the floor and tells the room that saying goodbye to her baby was the hardest thing she's ever done. It stills chokes her up.

Facts About Teen Dads And Their Commitment To Parenthood

Posted 6/27/12 11:45 am EST by Editor in Teen Mom, Top TV Shows

No girl ends up a teen mom on her own. There is always a guy involved, at least when it comes to getting pregnant. And whether they like it or not, these dads become instrumental figures in their children's lives. But they don't always stick around. Here, straight facts about teen dads based on recent studies:

-- 66% of teen boys who become fathers are 18 or 19 years old. Only 1 in 3 teen dads are younger than 18 when their child is born. This is also true of teen moms: Most (65%) are 18 and 19 when they give birth.

-- About half (48%) of teen fathers are Caucasian, 29% are African-American and 19% are Hispanic.

-- Only 1 out of 4 teen fathers live with their child's mother at the time their child is born. More than half of teen fathers don't live with their child or their child's mother when the baby is born, and only 8% of teen dads are married.
