Selena Gomez Recalls Her Most Intense 'Spring Breakers' Moment

What's Selena Gomez's favorite scene from her new flick, "Spring Breakers"? The actress doesn't give specifics, but it sounds like we'll know it when we see it...and when we see it, it sounds like we might wish we hadn't. In an interview with MTV News, Selena described the challenging moment:

"There is a scene in the movie where James and I have a confrontation—a very awkward, uncomfortable confrontation," she said. And not only was the moment intense, but Selena went into it totally unrehearsed.

"I knew about that scene two minutes before we shot it," she explained. "I was supposed to be finished for the day. We had finished the crying scene. I was in the pool house and I was bawling, and I was so tired of crying—because you get exhausted from crying. I was like, 'Oh, I'm done.'"

Except that she wasn't: "[Director] Harmony [Korine] pulls me aside, and he goes, 'All right, so we're gonna do a scene in here with you and James.' And he goes, 'He's going to convince you to stay with the girls.' and I go, 'OK, well, what do I say? Am I sad? Am I mad? Am I scared?' And he goes, 'Sure.' And I was like, 'Well, wait a minute. What's happening?'"

The answer to that question being... well, we don't know. Selena, perhaps out of a desire not to spoil the scene for moviegoers, will only say that something happened, and it was CRAZY.

"That scene was absolutely intense and so real, because I had no idea that that was going to happen, and [James] was so brilliant in it."

So, basically, go see "Spring Breakers." Watch for the part where James holds Selena's hand. And then brace yourself for intense real brilliance that may or may not make you very uncomfortable! Yay!

"Spring Breakers" hits theaters in New York and L.A. tomorrow and nationwide March 22.

Is your interest piqued by Selena's description of her freaky Franco scene?

Nina Dobrev Beats People Up On 'Conan'

Nina Dobrev Beats People Up On 'Conan'

The takeaway from what you're about to see? Never, ever, ever question the legitimacy of Nina Dobrev's butt-stomping skills—lest you end up taking a beer stein to the head.

Alas, this lesson comes too late for Conan O'Brien, who had the audacity to tell Nina during her guest appearance on his show that, y'know, she just doesn't seem like much of an ass-kicker. He's gotta be hurting today; Nina and her traveling tag team of stuntmen went bananas on their host, until the "Vampire Diaries" star hurled him bodily through the wall.

And the action doesn't stop there! Which is to say, Nina also joined Conan in a spirited discussion of just how many of her show's male cast members she's made out with (spoiler: ALL OF THEM) and what it was like to get sex scene tips from her mom (spoiler: AWKWARD). The whole thing was so hot that Zach Braff, who'd been quietly sitting on the couch during Nina's turn in the spotlight, momentarily erupted into shirt-rending excitement. No, seriously: that happened. And considering what went on the last time Nina paid a visit to "Conan," we're kinda starting to wonder whether there's something in the water at the TBS studios. Stunt scenes? Maternal sex tips? Yogic crotch-massages? What is it about Conan that drives Nina crazy? Discuss!

Anna Kendrick's No Good, Very Bad Days

"Pitch Perfect" starlet Anna Kendrick had the good fortune to snag an MTV Movie Awards nomination last week alongside her singing co-stars (including host Rebel Wilson), but in an unfortunate twist of fate, this week, Anna's short a few other possessions.

Credit card and phone stolen within 3 days. I'm taking a mulligan on this week guys. #DownForTheCount #MixedMetaphors #IDontKnowSportsThings

— Anna Kendrick (@AnnaKendrick47) March 11, 2013

The actress took to Twitter today to bemoan her bad luck, and we can hardly blame her! That's a major bummer for sure. But at least she's good-natured enough to make a joke of it. Hopefully, she can replace her items with little muss or fuss. Good luck, Anna!

'Catching Fire' Capitol Portrait EXCLUSIVE: Feast Your Eyes On Finnick!

Hold on to your tridents, Finnick fans! As part of Lionsgate's roll out of super-sumptuous Capitol Portraits featuring our favorite "Catching Fire" crew members, Hollywood Crush has the distinct pleasure of unveiling the visage of District 4's hunkiest of hunks (played by actor Sam Claflin)! The only thing that could make this EXCLUSIVE even better? If Finnick were fitted in his barely-there gold fishnet costume from the Tribute Parade. But all in due time.

And that's not to say the outfit featured here doesn't reflect the tribute's aquatic roots. In fact, there's something positively pirate-esque about Finnick's unbuttoned-down-to-there linen shirt, flouncy evergreen pants and lace-up boots. Let's just say, he's shivering our timbers something good.

Click past the jump to see the full Capitol Portrait!

As fans of Suzanne Collins' novel—upon which the film is based—can attest, Finnick plays an integral role in the events of the Quarter Quell, also known as the 75th annual Hunger Games, in which Katniss and Peeta are once again thrust into the deadly arena for another bloody battle.

Be sure to stick close to the official "The Hunger Games" Facebook page as more portraits come down the pike!

"The Hunger Games: Catching Fire," starring Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson, hits theaters November 22.

Style Superstar: Zoe Saldana Legs It Out In Leather

Style Superstar: Zoe Saldana Legs It Out In Leather

After weeks of awards season haute couture, all those glamorous evening gowns are starting to blur together into one giant, indiscriminate blob of chiffon-satin-organza-whatever. So this week, we're giving ourselves a break from the dress parade, and the Style Superstar props to a pair of ladies who went for fresh, sleek, sophisticated looks that involve...pants. Pants! Imagine!

This week's best? It's Zoe Saldana, who wins all of the awards for her chic look at the Miu Miu show during Paris Fashion Week. Skinny leather leggings, sophisticated stilettos, a pop of bright lipstick and the perfect cozy camel coat to finish it off. This outfit, with its clean lines and contrasting textures, is Exhibit A in the case for Zoe as the reigning queen of casual style. Well played, Superstar.

Meanwhile, Abigail Breslin took a pair of wide-leg trousers to their dressy limit, with a dramatic all-black ensemble at the premiere of her new film, "The Call." With her long blonde hair in a 1940s-style sweep, a big bow, and just a peek of midriff above her high-waisted pants, this is a daring look that paid off for the young actress—except for the part where her pants are so long that there's no sign of her feet anywhere. Here's hoping she finds her way to a tailor before she wears them again, because denying the public a peek at her undoubtedly-fabulous shoes is just not fair.

What do you think of our pants-wearing style picks?

Nick Offerman Joins Us After Hours For A Discussion Of Adorable Things

A word of warning, superstars: If you're particularly susceptible to the mind-blowing effects of total cutesy-wootsy-ness, you may want to grab hold of a nice, sturdy piece of furniture before watching our latest After Hours. Because it's time for a new installment of "Adorable Things," our segment dedicated to the appreciation of all things fluffy and cuddly—and today's clip features dangerous levels of lovability. It can all be summed up in six words:

Nick Offerman in a bunny hat.

Yep, that's right: Actor Nick Offerman is the most adorable man, maybe even the most adorable thing, ever to grace the face of the earth. He's cuter than a basket of puppies. He's cuter than a hedgehog in a party hat. He's cuter than two baby otters, holding hands, eating cupcakes, while wearing matching footie pajamas with special holes cut for their tails. And in this After Hours, the "Parks and Recreation" star shares with us the secrets of his adorability, from his most squeezable facial features to his heart-melting vocal inflections to his very own version of baby talk. How cute is it? So cute we actually squeed ourselves to death. Don't say we didn't warn you.

Are you all AWWWW after watching this video?
