Justin Bieber announced that he is giving up his pet boa constrictor Johnson to charity, perhaps because he's too busy working on world domination.
A disclaimer on the auction site warns: "Keeping a pet snake is a long-term responsibility. Before making any decision about keeping one, please ensure you have the money, space, knowledge, time, resources [...]

Nick Jonas Says Gabrielle Giguere Has 'A Clear Vision'

Back in June, Nick Jonas told MTV News he was looking for the next Willow Smith or Greyson Chance when he teamed up with Quaker Chewy Superstar Search. Well, now he's found that person in 14-year-old Gabrielle Giguere.
"It was an exciting process, picking the winner," he told MTV News. "Basically, we narrowed it down to 35 of the best videos, and I chose my favorites, and then we made it a top five. And from there, America voted, and Gabrielle was our winner. And I'm so pleased, and getting in the studio with her was so amazing and crafting a song to her voice was a great experience."
Jonas, who has previously written tracks for Charice and Demi Lovato, said working with the Florida native proved to be quite a fruitful experience, resulting in the catchy, electronic pop tune "My Time." Giguere not only walked away with the Jonas-produced track, but also an online music video, a contract with Jonas Group Management and $5,000 in cash.
"It's just been a really great time so far, and I'm looking forward to seeing where things go for her," he said. "It was amazing getting in the studio with her. I think she had a clear vision of what she wanted to sound like, and she really wanted to be the best it can be."
So what does Nick think of all their hard work? "In my experience, I try and work specifically with the vocalist and try and figure out how they work and get the best result," he said. "We had the time to do that, and I feel like we came up with a really great-sounding song."

Noel Gallagher 'Not Desperate At All' For Oasis Reunion

Early Thursday (November 10), before Noel Gallagher stopped by the MTV Newsroom to talk up his just-released High Flying Birds solo album, brother and former Oasis mate Liam was quoted by NME as saying that Noel was "desperate" to reunite the band.
Given the sheer amount of acrimony between the brothers since Oasis split in 2009 (with elder Gallagher citing "verbal and violent intimidation" as the main reason), this came as news to Noel, who told us he wasn't desperate to have anything to do with his former band — now and forever.
"I'll tell you what happened," he sighed. "When I first started doing interviews [for Birds], a guy — we'll refer to him as 'a French guy' — he asked me: Did I have any regrets about leaving Oasis? And I said, initially, that I did. And he said, 'Oh, what about this solo project?' and I said, 'Yeah, but it would have been great' — would have been, this is key, concentrate on this — 'would have been great if we could have worked on solo projects and maybe got back together for 2015.'
"But obviously, that's not a story, and journalists being the cunning foxes that they are, he thought to himself ... 'If I just say "could" and "would," mon dieu, I have myself a story!' " Gallagher continued. "So that goes all the way around the Internet, and then it's like this mythical reunion is going to take place. ... It isn't going to take place. Do I look desperate? No, I'm not desperate at all."
While he's primarily in the States to begin the promotional cycle for the genuinely quite excellent High Flying Birds album with a run of shows in major markets (Philadelphia, Boston, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco), Gallagher knows there's always going to be fans who want nothing more than a full-blown Oasis reunion — preferably in 2015, the 20th anniversary of their massive (What's the Story) Morning Glory? album. But for that to occur, Gallagher joked he's going to have to endure some rather dark times in the very near future, because desperate, he most certainly is not.
"I will say this, though: If I need the money, I will do it," he laughed. "I don't need a lot of money, though, and here's hoping I won't anytime soon. No, I'm not desperate. My sh--'s not gone down the toilet yet."

After a slight delay, the video for Bruno Mars' "It Will Rain" is finally here, and the clip opens with a pivotal scene from "Breaking Dawn - Part 1."
After the opening sequence with Bella and Edward getting married in front of their friends and family, the video cuts to a love story between Mars, who recorded the track especially for the Bill Condon-directed flick, and his lovely leading lady.
Bruno and his onscreen love experience the many joys, trials and tribulations of being in a relationship. And as is often the case in real life, things starts out cute; every little moment and snuggle is more romantic than the one before. Bruno goes out of his way to court his female friend, even holding a private screening of "Breaking Dawn" to woo her. They share kisses as footage of Bella and Edward's honeymoon flashes on the wall. But at some point, the pair begin to fight, though Bruno isn't going to let her go that easily: He uses his songwriting skills to persuade her to stay with him.
The heartbreak expressed on the track is mirrored in solo shots of Bruno standing around looking sullen. As the video closes out, we see that the song Bruno wrote while his lady was asleep turned out to be romantic enough to win her back.
In the final shot, Bruno stands alone while rain hits the window behind him and sings, "Cause there'll be no sunlight if I lose you, baby/ There'll be no clear skies if I lose you, baby/ Just like the clouds, my eyes will do the same if you walk away/ Every day, it will rain, rain, rain."
The soundtrack for "Breaking Dawn - Part 1" was released this week and features tracks from Mars, Christina Perri ("A Thousand Years") and Theophilus London ("Neighbors"), to name a few
The highly anticipated fourth film in the "Twilight Saga" series opens November 18.
