Olivia Munn

People are still talking about the nude pics of Olivia Munn that showed up online last week after a hacker broke into her phone and leaked the images, but the starlet is taking it all in stride and is even laughing off the experience by fighting fire with fire.

(Soapbox: We get that, for one reason or another, people are super interested in celebrity nude pics, but can we please stop hacking their cell phones? It's a pretty cold thing to do. Snapping a pic of someone when they are out in public – fine. Breaking into and stealing their private property – not OK and pretty illegal.)

While Munn's pictures were not particularly explicit, the writing on them, allegedly by Munn, was. Like, VERY. The images had graphic text superimposed on them, most of which were instructions, and arrows pointing to where to, um, carry out her directions. They were basically illustrated sex instructions and they were something.

Well, this weekend at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas, Munn was unable to attend a screening of her film "The Babymakers" because she was filming HBO's Aaron Sorkin series "The Newsroom," but she sent a fun letter with the film's director apologizing for her absence and detailing what she was doing when she wasn't sending lewd texts. She also included a picture of herself with some superimposed text to mock the mini-scandal. Both are kind of awesome.

"Oh, and one last thing – some of those pictures weren't even me," Munn at one point writes. "I mean, you can't even see my penis…"

You know you want to read it. Check both letter and pic out after the jump. Read More...

New York, NY – If you've ever been to a Skrillex concert, you'll know that tickets can be hard to come by and there's a good chance your standards of personal space were replaced by fist pumping teens as you find yourself questioning the fire code in between sets. While EDM shows only continue to gain in popularity, many wonder, what led to the explosion of EDM music in the past year?

An event during Social Media Week in New York City ventured to guess. Held Thursday night in the East Village, "How Social Media Has Fueled the Explosive Growth of EDM in America Panel" included agents and label executives alike.

The notion being that music's discoverability is easier than ever before was at the forefront of the panel. The ease of learning and sharing your favorite songs has become instant and easy. And even if you're not listening to the same music as your real-life friends, a glance no further than your Twitter feed can make you feel like you're part of a bigger community with people of similar tastes and styles in music.

“The growth of EDM is intrinsically tied to social media,” Zev Norotsky, founder of Elektro Magazine and moderator of the panel, told the crowd of about 200. He also reminded the crowd, for anyone who had any doubt about its continued growth, that global EDM sales are projected at four times that of rock and roll music.

With artists like David Guetta having nearly four million Twitter followers, it's easy for them to connect with their fans and build a loyal following.

"Swedish House Mafia is at the forefront of fan loyalty and creating viral buzz through CD release events, and it's Masquerade Ball," Norotsky said.

Allowing fans to connect with artists in ways that used to only be possible when the artist came to your hometown has really fueled its growth, according to Justin Kleinfeld, who represents Tiesto and Swedish House Mafia. “It’s the autograph, these guys are tweeting everything they’re doing from getting on an airplane to recording a single … just about anything,” the rep said. “Getting retweeted is like the new autograph."

While the "S**t So and So Says" meme is a few weeks past its expiration date, we had to share this bit of goodness courtesy of the fine folks at "30 Rock."

NBC has assembled its own clip to add to the viral cannon, "S**t Liz Lemon Says." Anyone who's ever watched Tina Fey in action as Lemon knows she is a sound bite machine. (Tell me you don't know someone who says "I want to go to there" regularly?)

Check it out below. We promise to never contribute to the proliferation of this meme again. Unless, you know, a really funny one comes along in which case, yes, we totally will.

Our favorite married couple, "Will & Grace" Emmy winner (and ever-present sitcom guest star) Megan Mullally and "Parks and Recreation" star Nick Offerman, have made a music video … and it showcases everything we love about them.

The hilarious pair sing a country-western love song with a twist – he's a paleontologist and she's a creationist. Uh oh! Lovebirds with a very different point of view on a controversial topic. Seems ripe for parody and Offerman and Mullally do not disappoint!

The clip is loaded with the same off-the-wall humor that makes the pair's onscreen collaboration on "Parks and Rec" (she plays his crazy ex-wife) so awesome.

Watch:

Is there any way we can pass a law that, regardless of what happens down the road, these two can never ever in a hundred million years get a divorce? They are the perfect team and give us faith that love still exists in this sad world!

Oh no, you guys, the Queen is pissed!

Yesterday, a demo version of what was widely assumed to be the lead single from Madonna's forthcoming record leaked online and everyone lost their minds about it for a hot second. The song, "Give Me All Your Love" featuring Nicki Minaj, received a standing ovation from the Internet, even in its unfinished form. "Give Me" is like a hybrid of early-80s Madonna and early aughts Madonna – think "Jimmy Jimmy" from True Blue meets "Beautiful Stranger" – and yeah, it's pretty great.

Except Madonna is all, "Why'd you guys blow my spot?" Actually, what she said, according to her manager Guy Oseary, is much worse – in that sad way where you feel bad about something even though you had nothing to do with it. Earlier today, Oseary took to Twitter to lament the demo leak, saying, "Madonna told me this morning 'my true fans wouldn't do this.'"

He went on to admit that he, and presumably Madonna, were happy with the positive reaction to the song, but asked that whoever leaked "Give Me All your Love" stop. He even requested that Her Madgesty's fans "police any more leaks."

Last night's O Music Awards honored the brightest stars on the digital/Internet music scene and not only broke the Guinness World Record for Longest Team Dance Marathon but delivered some killer live performances from the likes of by Mac Miller, the Band Perry and the Alabama Shakes.

The true showstopper, though, was opening act Robyn, who performed her dance smash "Call Your Girlfriend." This summer, we were lucky enough to catch Robyn at New York's Nassau Coliseum when she was opening for Katy Perry on her "California Dreams" tour and can say from first-hand experience that the Swedish pop phenom brings such incredible energy to the stage it's infectious.

Check out her performance below and be sure to read on after the jump for a full list of O Music Award winners.

Would you buy a used car from Saul Goodman?

Okay, how about from Bob Odenkirk, the actor who plays the shadiest lawyer on the planet on "Breaking Bad?" The Black Keys seem to think you would, which might explain why they dressed Odenkirk up in the cheapest-looking polyester suit they could find and hired him to help hawk their upcoming Danger Mouse-produced album, El Camino.

Odenkirk does his damndest to get the right car in the frame during the fake one-minute ad allegedly shot in December 1996, but all he succeeds in doing is creating one of the best viral video album spots in recent memory.

Exciting news! On Tuesday, Lisa Kudrow’s genius, award-winning web series “Web Therapy” will debut on Showtime.

The mostly improvised web series follows Fiona Wallice (Kudrow), a therapist Kudrow describes as “self-serving with little patience, very judgmental” who treats patients via brief webcam sessions. The webisodes run from three to fourteen minutes, and Showtime will compile them, along with new footage shot specifically for TV, into 10 half-hour episodes. Bringing the show to TV means an entirely new audience will be introduced to the fantastic characters developed by guest stars like Jane Lynch, Rashida Jones, Meryl Streep, Alan Cumming, Courteney Cox, Molly Shannon and Victor Garber over the web series’ 48-episode run.

Seriously, this thing is amazeballs. Check it out for yourself below. Read More...

This afternoon I got an e-mail from a colleague alerting me to the fact that the term Joonas.net seemed to be a hot Internet search term, and being that the Jonas Brothers have a very similar name we initially thought this must be a new fansite dedicated to Nick, Joe and Kevin.

When I went there, I found that to be the exact opposite of what it actually is. You see it appears to be some robot-like site that generates the message: "The requested document is totally fake. Even tried multi. Nothing helped. I'm really depressed about this. And it goes on and on in about being a depressed robot or web server or something you seems to be having some sort of identity crisis: I mean, it's not your job to listen to my problems, and I guess it is my job to go and fetch web pages for you. But I couldn't get this one. I'm so sorry. Believe me!"

OK, OK, we believe you. And we're actually just sort of bummed that it's not a Jonas site, but instead some mysterious site run by a guy named Joonas in Finland. (This is true. We did our research.) Unfortunately that's all we know at this point, but we're thinking he's either an artist who is pranking us, or that Joonas is really some sort of depressed Web server. If it's the latter, we're here to talk!

No Doubt have been in the music business (some call it "the biz") for enough time now that they know what they're doing. You might even call them veterans. But they need your help on their summer tour.

When Gwen and the boys get up on stage to play their first hit, "Just a Girl", the video playing on the big screens will be you. And your friends. And your pets.

The band is asking you to do your best impression of Gwen from way back in '95 and upload footage of yourself for them to use on tour. Complete details and submission can be found at NoDoubt.com. The deadline is May 1, so get shootin' and uploadin', even if you're just a boy.

Pretty cool, huh? We thought so too. And it got us thinking that we'd heard this idea before. Lo and behold, MTV News met some crazy No Doubt fans back in 1997 who had the same idea. They dressed up like Gwen, went to a show and even got to meet the band.
