A.J. HAMMER, HOST: Tonight, the SHOWBIZ Countdown, the top five "Must-See Videos of the Day." So is this "One-Pound Fish" the new "Gangnam Style"? Does this new international can`t-get-it-out-of-your-head show-stopper have the right stuff to be No. 1?

Hello, thank you for watching. I`m A.J. Hammer.

The SHOWBIZ Countdown of the top five "Must-See Videos of the Day," including Honey Boo-Boo`s mom freaking out over mayonnaise, is coming up.

But we begin with our first big SHOWBIZ Countdown of the night. These are the top five stories breaking today about "Stars Gone Wild."

Kicking it off at No. 5, it`s Justin Bieber`s blunt drama. Yes, there are these startling new pictures out today on TMZ of the Biebs smoking something that -- well, let`s just say it doesn`t look like a Marlboro Red.

SHOWBIZ TONIGHT`s Nischelle Turner is in Hollywood tonight. Nischelle, we know that old saying: where there`s smoke, there`s fire. I need to know, is that the case here?

NISCHELLE TURNER, SHOWBIZ TONIGHT CORRESPONDENT: Well, that`s the question. And it`s a good one, A.J.

You know, these brand-new photos on TMZ show Bieber smoking something that appears to be a blunt. Now, TMZ says the pics were taken January 2 during a party inside a Newport Beach, California, hotel room.

And, again, we don`t know exactly what Justin is holding, but, you know, take a look and draw your own conclusions.

We did reach out to Justin Bieber`s people today. They are not commenting, but listen to what he tweeted the day after TMZ posted these pics.

He says, "I see all of you. I hear all of you. I never want to let any of you down. I love you and thank you. Like I said, 2013, new challenges, new doubters. I`m ready. We are ready. See you all tomorrow and every day after that."

So A.J., read into that what you will.

HAMMER: Yes. I`m just surprised he would allow himself to be in a position where somebody could photograph him, potentially doing that, if that, indeed is what`s going on. All right. Nischelle, thanks so much.

I want to bring in Hyla, who`s the host of CelebBuzz.com, the "Daily Buzz" over there.

Now, Hyla, let`s remember, Justin Bieber is a legal adult. He`s 18 years old. However, he is a huge star with a lot of young kids. Smoking pot, let`s face it, it`s still illegal in most places and cases.

Do you think this is a bad deal for the Biebs? Or is this whole thing going to -- I don`t know -- blow over, so to speak?

HYLA, HOST, "DAILY BUZZ" ON CELEBBUZZ.COM: Yes, well, first of all, why did you have me on this segment? Because my name is Hyla?

HAMMER: Exactly.

HYLA: I mean, let`s get to the case in point here.

Listen, Bieber is an adult, and he`s -- he`s going through that awkward transition: child star to adult. We`ve seen every single child star do this. Some are able to pull it off better than others.

I`m OK with this for this reason. He seems to be doing this in an environment that is safe. He`s in a room; he`s in a hotel. He`s hanging out. He`s not driving. He`s not acting like a donkey out in public.

Also, you mentioned in California it is legal. He is 18 years old. And he`s doing it in a responsible manner.

If he`s going to be this person, then own up to it and say, "Hey, this is who I am. This is what I do, but I`m doing it in a responsible way." Then he needs to say that.

Cryptic tweets, that doesn`t help anybody. It doesn`t -- it doesn`t answer any of the questions.

HAMMER: Yes.

HYLA: So I don`t know, I don`t see why he did that.

HAMMER: It will be interesting to see if he actually addresses it. One thing we do know for sure, stemming from an incident over the last couple of weeks, is he is willing to hand over his car keys, even his Ferrari keys, to somebody else. Maybe not the best choice of people.

But there are a lot of people out there defending Justin Bieber today. Wendy Williams among them. I want to play for you what she said this morning on her show about all this. Let`s roll that.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

WENDY WILLIAMS, TALK SHOW HOST: Drugs are still drugs, and we don`t know whether those were drugs. But you know, whatever is going on in this picture, it looks like a normal 19-year-old if he wasn`t a celebrity. Or better not be my child.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: All right. Well, you know, so Wendy Williams kind of dismissing the Justin Bieber thing as, you know, boys will be boys.

Nischelle, what do you think? Is Wendy right on this one? I mean, is this kind of a normal thing for him to be doing? Or can we not accept the fact that he is this huge worldwide megastar?

TURNER: Well, you know, A.J., I love me some Wendy Williams, but I have to totally disagree with her on this situation. Call me -- what, this is L-7; that makes the square. I guess that`s what I am. That`s what the young kids say.

Because I think this is totally inappropriate. Justin has made his money and made his name on being kind of America`s young sweetheart. He`s the boy next door, got a little swag. But the young girls love him. And I think he does have a bit of a responsibility here to, if you`re going to do it, I don`t want to see it.

And you were right just before: why put yourself in a position where you can be photographed with something that -- who knows what it is; funny cigarettes, I guess that`s what they call them these days.

HAMMER: A lot of conversations, I`m sure, going on in the Bieber camp right now. And I agree with Hyla, as well, that OK, if you are going to do it -- and let`s face it, it appears that may be the case. We don`t know for sure. But if you are going to do it, do it and somehow find a responsible way to talk about, write about it, show how you`re being responsible for it. I guess that`s the best we can ask, if this is the road he`s going down.

All right, there`s Bieber`s blunt drama. Today another singing superstar was also stirring the pot, so to speak.

This is No. 4 on our SHOWBIZ Countdown of "Stars Gone Wild." It`s Rihanna. And a photo of her with what appears to be marijuana.

Now, the picture was not snapped secretly at a party, as seems to be the case in the Justin Bieber picture. Rihanna actually tweeted the pictures herself. Nischelle, what is she doing here?

TURNER: Well, that`s another good question, A.J.

Apparently, Rihanna is trying to join the Willie Nelson-Snoop Dogg club of proud marijuana smoking music superstars. Now lately, she`s been posting tons of pictures of her and what appears to be marijuana. Now she`s apparently started posting pictures of just marijuana herself.

Earlier today, she posted this photo of what appears to be a marijuana nugget with a caption, "This nug look like a skull or am I just," dot, dot, dot. She left it there.

Rihanna fans immediately went off on her for possible drug use, but it didn`t faze Rihanna. No, no, no. She tweeted a photo of herself with the caption "I don`t give a" -- you know what.

And when a fan wrote that she`s going to end up like Whitney Houston, Rihanna responded, quote, "Yes, because Whitney overdosed on a joint," followed by something else I can`t repeat.

I don`t know what`s going on with her. Defiant to the end.

HAMMER: Well, yes.

And look, hey, Rihanna, we get it. You`re naughty. Got it. All right. Message received.

All these pictures she`s posting, though, you know, the seminude pictures. Apparently smoking marijuana. She`s with Chris Brown in some pictures. I want to bring in entertainment host Holland Reid, who is here with us tonight.

Is this starting to get old? Because it is to me, Holland. The shock value has certainly worn off, as far as I`m concerned. So I`m not exactly sure what she`s trying to accomplish.

HOLLAND REID, ENTERTAINMENT HOST: You know, you`re right. There is no shock value. This is Rihanna. This is who she is.

I do think there is a fine line of being the kind of artsy-fartsy "I don`t care" artist, you know, whatever, throwing up the middle finger.

But it also that fine line of kind of being responsible to those who take you very seriously. I mean, she`s not a normal citizen that can just do this. She`s Rihanna. So when she is, like, you know, being -- influencing young girls who can`t get away with the stuff that Rihanna does, you`re crossing the line a little bit.

But there is no shock value to it. We know she smokes weed. Who cares? Stop posting the pictures. That`s my take.

HAMMER: If I could ask her one question, it`s like, what is the driving force behind you putting these pictures up there? We get that you are going to be who you`re going to be, and you do not feel a responsibility in that kind of a role model situation.

But you know, you have some stars who like the marijuana. You have others who prefer to find their trouble the old-fashioned way with alcohol. That`s how Hollywood used to do it.

No. 3 on our SHOWBIZ Countdown of "Stars Gone Wild," it`s Josh Brolin. He apparently had a drunken run-in with the cops on New Year`s Day.

Nischelle Turner, we are now seeing, in addition to these young stars getting in trouble, Oscar-nominated actors going completely wild.

TURNER: Yes, 2013 is starting off with a bang, right, A.J.?

Josh apparently celebrated the new year just a little too much. SHOWBIZ TONIGHT has confirmed that he was picked up by cops in Santa Monica, California, late on January 1 and was booked on a misdemeanor charge of public intoxication. He was released a few hours later and, reportedly, he was not cited.

So A.J., there will probably be no further repercussions for Rowan (ph), other than what I imagine was a pretty wicked hangover, huh?

HAMMER: Yes, and by the way, Josh Brolin`s been through this before. He was arrested in a bar brawl. That was back in 2008. Those charges were dropped.

But Holland, I would think, when you`re a 40-something actor who was arrested once -- once for a barroom brawl and another time for being drunk in public, you should really consider your alcohol consumption when you`re in the public eye or not, I don`t think it even matters.

REID: You know, absolutely, but I`m just going to say, can everybody get a pass on New Year`s Eve? Can everybody just get a pass that, hey, that`s your day to be drunk, be loose, get over it and then be responsible for the rest of the year.

I mean, there is no excuse for it. He was publicly intoxicated heavily, but I don`t know, new year`s eve, day, I`m giving everybody a pass.

HAMMER: Well, maybe New Year`s Day and special holidays you can get kind of a pass. And still, you know, try to behave properly, people.

I can tell you that Josh Brolin and the Biebs and Rihanna all have major competition in our SHOWBIZ Countdown of "Stars Gone Wild" today. I`ve got the big reveal of No. 2 and No. 1 coming up.

But right now, spiders, ghosts, the dentist. You know, we all have things that totally freak us out, right? But leave it to Honey Boo-Boo`s mom to have, perhaps, the most freakish and country fear ever.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

ALANA THOMPSON, REALITY TV STAR: Look, Mama, I just ate it.

JUNE THOMPSON, REALITY TV STAR: Come on now. I`m going to go into a full panic attack. Get it out of here for real.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: That`s Mama June, afraid of mayonnaise. Guarantee you will not be able to look away from Honey Boo-Boo and the entire family trying to get mama to face her fear. The top five "Must-See Videos." But will ma beat Mars, Bruno Mars?

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

EMILY TORRES, CREATED VIRAL VIDEO (singing): Bruno, go to prom with me. A junior prom with me

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: It`s Bruno`s brilliant prom plea. The young woman who`s singing her heart out to Bruno, Emily Torres, right here tonight. Why did she do that video? It`s gone totally viral. Could we help her prom dreams come true?

This is SBT, SHOWBIZ TONIGHT, on HLN.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

HAMMER: Tonight on the SHOWBIZ Countdown, we are counting down the top five stories breaking today about "Stars Gone Wild." Here`s where we are so far.

Coming in at No. 5, photos of Justin Bieber posted on TMZ that show him smoking what appears to be marijuana.

At No. 4, Rihanna posting her own photos of what appears to be a marijuana bud. And then going after the Twitter fans who criticized her for her apparent weed fixation.

In at No. 3, news that actor Josh Brolin was picked up on New Year`s Day for public intoxication.

And that slides us right into No. 2 on our countdown of "Stars Gone Wild." Thomas Gibson, star of the hit CBS crime drama "Criminal Minds," now faces his own criminal charges. Gibson is known for playing Greg on the old sitcom "Dharma and Greg," as well.

He was arrested over the weekend on suspicion of DUI. Now, police reportedly stopped him when he tried to drive through a closed-off barricade. They smelled alcohol on his breath, and they arrested him after he reportedly refused a breathalyzer test.

Entertainment host Holland Reid is back with us from Hollywood tonight. And Holland, you actually got the chance to work with Gibson when you did an episode of "Criminal Minds." Were you surprised by this news?

REID: I`m really surprised. I mean, I did the episode. If you blinked, you missed me. But I did get to meet him, and he`s a wonderful guy.

But it just goes to show that these actors and celebrities, they`re people, and people make mistakes. So it`s really sad news, but I wish him the best, because he`s a fantastic guy.

HAMMER: Yes. It`s always sad news. I know it`s dreadfully embarrassing, and quite frankly, it`s just stupid for anybody to get behind the car if they`ve been drinking anything. That`s how I feel. I think that`s how a lot of people feel.

REID: Yes, yes.

HAMMER: So with all the "Stars Gone Wild," who will we name No. 1 tonight on the SHOWBIZ Countdown? How about the gift that keeps on giving? Lindsay Lohan.

Yes, it`s Lindsay. For beginning 2013 the exact same way she spent about every year since 2007, dealing with a criminal case against her.

SHOWBIZ TONIGHT was right there for her court date in New York this morning. This one stems from her misdemeanor assault case, where Lindsay`s accused of punching a fortune teller in a nightclub. That was back in November.

Prosecutors ended up delaying the proceeding, so Lindsay didn`t need to be in court today. Her attorney was right there, and he says that a witness who can clear Lindsay is willing to talk to prosecutors. Watch this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: And from my understanding, she related that Lindsay Lohan had did absolutely nothing wrong, had made no contact with the alleged victim, and, in fact, was in essence just being pursued by a fortune teller who was trying to tell Lindsay`s fortune.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Well, this guy`s feeling pretty confident that this is all going to go away for Lindsay.

Hyla from CelebBuzz.com is back with us from Hollywood. So Hyla, Lindsay in court, it`s really kind of a New Year`s tradition, kind of like the ball dropping in Times Square.

HYLA: Yes, but in her defense, we did hear from her during the holidays. She stayed low during Christmas and New Year`s, apparently, just chilled at home, didn`t do the club thing. So she`s definitely gearing up for this fight. I`m sure this guy sounds confident, but God, Lindsay Lohan, fortune tellers, you can`t write this stuff.

HAMMER: We always would say, Lindsay, would you just lay low? So finally, she`s laying low. It`s good that you bring light to it, but do we have any confidence that she will continue to lay low? I don`t really think so.

But today, we got to see Lindsay`s mom saying something that I thought was very interesting. She suggests that we should give Lindsay a pass for her constant troubles, because Lindsay endured her parents` pretty rough marriage when she was growing up.

Here`s what Dina Lohan is telling today`s "New York Daily News" about Lindsay. She says, quote, "She saw a lot of crazy stuff. I want the world to know the root of her problems."

OK. Look, Lindsay is 26 years old now. Holland, let me get your take on this. Because I get that her parents, who, by the way, continue to bash each other to this day. I get that they may be at the root of her problems and that they`re waving their hand and claiming some responsibility, or at least that`s what Dina appears to be doing here. But at her age, at Lindsay`s age of 26, does that buy her a pass?

REID: You know, I don`t think so. I think the problems coming up that sheds light on it. OK. We get it. You have some issues. There`s something really serious. Domestic violence is a huge factor in people`s lives as they become adults.

But there`s some point where you have to stop the cycle and take responsibility for your actions and Lindsay is past that. She`s an adult. She knows what to do to get her life on track. She`s simply not doing it, in my personal opinion.

HAMMER: Hyla, what do you think?

HYLA: This is such a joke. A, she`s pointing out the obvious. We already know that Michael and Dina had a screwed up relationship. But hello, Dina, you were just in the club with your daughter last year, just a few months ago. There were voice mails that were recorded. Like, you`re still being a problem here for her.

HAMMER: Yes. All right. Well, cut it out. Cut it out, all of you. Not you, Holland and Hyla. But Lindsay, Dina, and Michael, also. Just cut it out.

Holland, Hyla, I thank you both.

All right. Now, we all know "Gangnam Style" is great, but really, so 2012, right? Tonight, we`ve got the new year`s hottest international YouTube sensation. It is "One-Pound Fish."

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE (singing): Come on and have a look. One-pound fish. Come on and have a look. One-pound fish. Very, very good. One-pound fish. Very, very cheap.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Tonight the wild story behind how this simple fish seller with a catchy way to attract business became an Internet star. But will this earworm wiggle its way to the top of the SHOWBIZ Countdown of "Must-See Videos"? Or will a couple of tween queens skip to the No. 1 spot?

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Let me see you do the scarecrow

We can be everything that we want to be.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Move over, Rebecca Black. Tweenchronic have us hooked on "Skip Rope."

But which new song is going to top the SHOWBIZ Countdown?

This is SBT, SHOWBIZ TONIGHT, on HLN.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

HAMMER: Happy birthday, Blue Ivy. Can you believe the daughter of music royalty Jay-Z and Beyonce is already 1 year old? Well tonight, her Uncle Kanye West`s baby-to-be is making some big news, too. Did Kim Kardashian just possibly turn down 3 million bucks for the first shots of her baby, yet to be born?

TMZ reports today that Kim K. said, "Thanks, but no thanks" to an overseas magazine deal for baby Kim-ye. So the question is, is Kim really going to keep her baby under wraps? Or is she just kind of holding out for the biggest baby picture payday ever?

With me now from Hollywood is Hyla. He`s the host of "The Daily Buzz" on CelebBuzz.com.

So Hyla, what do you think is going on here? Is Kim just perhaps -- I don`t know -- using this as a leverage tool for a bigger check? Or is she going to possibly go the Beyonce route and maybe just release the first pictures on her Web site? And you know, this baby is going to have its own Web site. What do you think?

HYLA: Yes, the baby is going to have its own Web site. And I appreciate you giving a lot of credit to Kim, because we know that her family and that whole Kardashian clan, everything is very thought out with the media. But we`re dealing with Kanye West.

I honestly believe that they had a plan to announce this pregnancy. And I also honestly believe that Kanye said, "Nah, I`m not going to play your games. I`m Kanye West. If I just want to blurt it out randomly at a concert, and no one gets paid, we`re going to do it this way. This is the rules of engagement that I want to play by."

And I think that was also his message of telling the family, like, chill out. I get what you guys do for a living, but also, this is my kid, too, and this is how I want to approach it.

So it`s going to be an interesting balancing act. And it`s going to be a big question mark how they move forward, because he is just intangible. You don`t know what he`s going to do.

HAMMER: Well, no, he`s very unpredictable. And here`s another theory that I have. And it goes along with some reports that are out there that Kanye and Kim`s baby will -- well, certainly be part of the family reality show.

But I`m thinking maybe that`s why Kim turned down the cash, because she wants to be fully in control of revealing this as an international television event.

HYLA: Yes, that makes sense. I mean, the kid is going to have to be on television. There`s no avoiding that. How they roll that out, sure. I mean, they need to make some money on the pictures or maybe take that money and, you know, give it to charity/

HAMMER: Yes.

HYLA: Or something along those lines, but I don`t think it`s going to be as structured as we`re used to seeing it because Kanye`s involved.

HAMMER: The Kanye factor.

All right. I`m curious to get your take on this, Hyla. I want to move from Kim making money off her baby to Justin Bieber`s own money madness today.

He`s set to promote this new teen prepaid debit card. It`s pretty controversial. The card comes from BillMyParents.com. A lot of fees that could make a lot of kids lose money before they can spend it. I want to read just a couple of the particulars: a $3.95 monthly fee. It costs $1.50 to use an ATM.

You know, Kim K. and her sisters had to back out of a pretty similar deal, Hyla, as you remember. They were sued on the behalf of some people who didn`t like the idea of that credit card.

I`m thinking that Justin should cut and run from this deal. I don`t see it as a good thing.

HYLA: Yes, you know, his team always does a really good job of making sure they pick the right stuff for him. And I think in this particular case, they`re off the mark a little bit.

I mean, I read into that a little bit. Apparently, there`s going to be materials that help teach kids how to manage their money in a responsible way. This is a debit card that you have to put money in first. So it`s not like they can go crazy on the credit.

HAMMER: Right.

HYLA: But at the end of the day, it seems like there`s a lot more that could go wrong.

HAMMER: Yes.

HYLA: And make him look bad that can help him. So why do it?

HAMMER: This surprised me, and we`re big fans of Scooter Braun, his manager. So we`ll see if it sticks around.

HYLA: Yes.

HAMMER: All right, Hyla. Thanks, man.

We move now to Mama June`s meltdown. Honey Boo-Boo`s mom, certainly a strong and smart woman, right? But she has one crippling fear. Is it flying? No. Elevators? Unh-uh. Mama June`s afraid of mayonnaise.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

A. THOMPSON: Look, Mama, I just ate it.

J. THOMPSON: Come on now. I`m going to go into a full panic attack. Get it out of here for real.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: She`s freaking out over mayo. You do not want to miss Honey Boo- Boo and the entire family trying to get Mama to face her fear. It`s the SHOWBIZ Countdown, top five "Must-See Videos." But will Mama beat Bruno Mars?

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TORRES (singing): Bruno, go to prom with me, a junior prom with me.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Prom plea for Bruno. The young woman who is singing her heart out to Bruno Mars, Emily Torres, here tonight. Why did she do this video that`s gone viral? Could SHOWBIZ TONIGHT help her prom dreams come true?

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

A. THOMPSON: Look, Mama, I just ate it.

J. THOMPSON: I`m going to go into a full panic attack. Get it out of here for real.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Right now, the SHOWBIZ Countdown, the top five "Must-See Videos of the Day."

Honey Boo-Boo`s Mama June panics her way onto the countdown as her family forces her to face her fear of mayonnaise. But could Mama`s Mayo meltdown possibly beat this?

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TORRES (singing): Bruno, go to prom with me; a junior prom with me.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Bruno Mars, are you listening? It is the must-see prom plea from a teenager who is right tonight on SHOWBIZ TONIGHT. She`s going to tell us the real story behind her must-see moment.

But which must-see video will be number one on the SHOWBIZ Countdown? SHOWBIZ TONIGHT continues right now.

Welcome back to SHOWBIZ TONIGHT. Thank you for watching. I`m A.J. Hammer.

And the SHOWBIZ Countdown, we`re here to reveal to you the top five must- see brand new sometimes-wild caught on tape moments.

And we`re kicking it off at number five with a Michigan teen`s prom plea to pop star Bruno Mars. Now, in this thing, she is begging Bruno to come to her junior prom. It is a great video that reworks his number hit, "Locked out of Heaven." Let`s watch some of it.

(VIDEO CLIP PLAYING)

HAMMER: I love it. That`s got to get his attention, right? It`s perfect. And if her viral video plea comes through, she could wind up with really one of the best prom dates of all time, perhaps. She`s 16-year-old junior Emily Torres. Emily is with us tonight from her hometown in Michigan. And I`m looking, you must be in your bedroom where you shot the video because that`s the poster right behind you, right?

TORRES: Right.

HAMMER: Very cool. Hey, there`s your guy. And Emily, I don`t often do this. But I`m going to give you an opportunity, perhaps the chance of a lifetime right now. You`ve already done the video, but now use my show, use our airwaves. Tell Bruno Mars why he should be the special guy to take you to your junior prom at Port Huron Northern high school. Go for it. What would you say to him?

TORRES: OK. Well, Bruno, I`m a very loyal fan. I`ve supported you for a very long time. This is a great opportunity, I want to have fun with this, and you`re amazing, you`re a great singer live, you inspire me with my own music and stuff. Just let`s do this.

HAMMER: Let`s do it. Why not? Come on, Bruno. And look, Emily. I`m watching you talking and I`ve watched your video. And this is what caught our attention about this thing. Your passion. You know, you look at you tube, you see it all the time. So, teenage girls asking celebrities to go to a formal dance with them or something like that.

But I got to tell you. I`ve never seen so much passion in one of these videos before. Let`s watch some of your passionate plea to Bruno Mars. We need to see more of this.

(VIDEO CLIP PLAYING)

TORRES: So, yes, on March 23rd, Port Huron will be having their junior prom, and I`m a junior, so two and two together. I have no one to go with. I didn`t really care and then I like thought about it and now I care. So yes, so I`m kind of like reaching out in desperation but not really.

HAMMER: So desperate, Emily, I have a feeling you could get a date if you wanted to. But I`m curious to know your realistic expectation. Because obviously, how cool would that be? Bruno Mars answers your plea, comes to your prom. He`s obviously a busy guy. He just released an album. What do you think is really going to happen here?

TORRES: Well, realistically, you know, prom`s a little hard to get. But like Ellen`s seen it, I got to go on her show. I just want to meet him. I want to jam with him. I want to talk music. I want to have a conversation.

HAMMER: Pretty cool. And if you don`t get Bruno at the prom with you, will you just ask another guy or have another guy asked you go and maybe just wear a fedora like Bruno?

TORRES: Actually, one of my friends who kind a looks like him, and he was going to wear one with ray-ban and we were going to go together.

HAMMER: Perfect. Net best thing. Well, we are all pulling for your, Emily, good luck with this.

TORRES: Thank you.

HAMMER: And Bruno, from all of us here in SHOWBIZ TONIGHT, we join Emily in her plea. If you can swing it, please, take her to the prom. She deserves it.

We move now from Emily`s passionate Bruno Mars prom plea to a plea from Honey Boo Boo`s Mama June to please keep the mayonnaise away from her. I can relate to this story.

Here comes Honey Boo Boo`s back for a brand new season. Mama June is facing her fear of mayonnaise. Yes, you heard me right. Country girl Mama June is terrified of mayo and we`re revealing the video proof of it at number four on our video countdown. Mama June versus mayo.

With me tonight from Hollywood, entertainment host Holland Reid is here and the brilliant comedian and actor Kevin Brown is also here. He, of course, plays Dot Com on NBC`s "30 Rock."

All right guys. You`ve got to check this out. I love this. It`s Mama June fighting what some people consider a very bizarre mayonnaise phobia and what appears to be her biggest fear in the world right on camera. Let`s roll that.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

J. THOMPSON: As I was growing up, we ate mayonnaise sandwiches for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, every -- I can`t talk about. Just, oh, it is making my flesh crawl.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I think it`s stupid that you`re scared of mayonnaise, ma. Seriously, it`s white and it`s mayonnaise. Come on, that`s like ketch-up, but it`s white.

J. THOMPSON: I don`t see you eating it.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Because I`m a vegetarian.

J. THOMPSON: When did you become a vegetarian?

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Mayonnaise does not have meat in it. You cannot be a vegetarian of mayonnaise.

J. THOMPSON: Vegetarians don`t eat meat.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: OK. Mayonnaise is not a meat.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: That`s right. Mayonnaise is not a meat. You can`t argue with that.

Now, Kevin, as a mayonnaise non-eater myself, I kind of relate to this. But I am not so fearful. Are you feeling where Mama June coming from in this fear of mayonnaise?

KEVIN BROWN, ACTOR/COMEDIAN: Listen, I`m watching the clip, right? And I`m -- I don`t even notice the mayonnaise. All I see is honey boo-boo`s dirty socks. Change this girl`s socks. She`s on TV. Get her some clean socks, Mama June, please.

HAMMER: Oh, my goodness. Holland, what do you think? This is one of the biggest fears in Mama June`s life.

REID: I think it`s hilarious her fear is of a fatty white substance, that alone cracks me up beyond belief. But the fact that little Honey Boo Boo is playing in it is even worse. It`s like just stop putting your fingers in it. I mean, I like mayonnaise, but that was a little bit much. But it`s hilarious all around that she`s afraid of it. I don`t get it. Vegetarian? What?

HAMMER: Hey, Kevin, I have to ask you though. I know you`re only noticing the socks, did you notice Mama June`s hair? She`s gone all blond and straight and she said she wasn`t going to go Hollywood. But I don`t know. I`m sensing a little vanity there. What about you?

BROWN: She`s getting kind of sexy. I`ll be honest with you. I was opposed to this whole Honey Boo Boo thing when I first noticed it, when people first started talking about it, but it`s really starting to grow on me. I`m starting to like the family and Mama June. She is looking kind of sexy.

HAMMER: Wow. Maybe we can arrange a little tete-a-tete.

BROWN: Well, maybe. Maybe.

HAMMER: A three point wonder shots is bringing us to number three on out SHOWBIZ Countdown of today`s "Must-See Videos". Look at this unbelievable improbable shot from the out of bounds line during a high school girls` basketball game. I mean, that is amazing.

SHOWBIZ TONIGHT`s Nichelle Turner is in Hollywood tonight with this incredible story of what is certainly a miracle shot.

And Nischelle, I know that the former sports anchor in you just started screaming when you saw this thing.

TURNER: Oh, you know I did, A.J. Right along with everyone else when I saw Gabrielle Gary nail that three-pointer. She whipped the shot from the sideline, tried to save a loose ball from going out of bounds and she made an absolutely miraculous shot. Take another look at it.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Got to see one go in.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: That`s a deep shot off the backside. Nice save by or - - I cannot believe that! Oh, man, we may be sending that in. That was huge.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: What a shot. It was supposed to be a save and it goes in. And again, Gabrielle Gary.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: A hook shot from the corner. Just like the good old days.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Yes, just like the good old days. I love that. It`s so much fun to watch. And the guys in the booth are going crazy about that. But here`s the thing, did the shot pay off? And did Gabby`s team end up winning that game?

TURNER: Yes, indeed. The Mavericks pounded their rivals the Broncos, 56- 36. Gabby`s team got the "W," A.J.

HAMMER: So, I have to Gabrielle is the team star, right?

TURNER: Well, she is now. She`s just a sophomore. And that shot she made was just one of four three pointers she made in the first eight minutes of that game. She scored a career high 24 points. And I love after she hit that shot, A.J., she got back on defense.

HAMMER: Four three pointers in a single game. I have a feeling we`ll be seeing more viral videos of her incredible hook shots.

All right, Nischelle, Thank you so much.

If that three-point miracle shot and Mama June`s mayo phobia caught on tape aren`t number one on our SHOWBIZ Countdown of our "Must-See Videos", what is? I can tell you, it`s a showdown between two wild new viral music videos. We have the fishmonger who may be the next Psy.

(VIDEO CLIP PLAYING)

HAMMER: We got this ticking on betweens who are hoping that their band new viral jam will blow up even bigger than Rebecca Black`s "Friday."

(VIDEO CLIP PLAYING)

HAMMER: But the question is, which bumping new jam is going to top our countdown of "Must-See Videos"? I`ll have that reveal coming up next.

Also this, Sly Stallone taking on one of Hollywood`s hottest debates right now.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

SYLVESTER STALLONE, ACTOR: Did Rocky make a few guys, white guys blew up and keep their brains punched in the big fighters? Yes, he did. He actually did.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Sly is getting real, talking about the impact of movies with us. But does he really think violence in films fuels real life violence? Wait until you see our provocative showbiz news maker interview with Stallone, still to come.

This is SBT, SHOWBIZ TONIGHT on HLN.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(VIDEO CLIP PLAYING)

HAMMER: Here we go again. That video has gotten a whopping 12 million YouTube hits in less than four weeks. So, it`s got to make you wonder, is that guy the next Psy? Will that new auto tune extravaganza, "One Pound Fish" be the "Gangnam Style" of 2013? It might be.

Welcome back tonight I the SHOWBIZ Countdown. It`s the top five "Must-See Videos" of the day. These are videos that made as do a double take. Here`s where we`re at so far.

Number five, a passionate viral plea from a high school girl in Michigan. She`s begging pop star Bruno Mars to join her at her junior prom. And just moments ago, right here, she told SHOWBIZ TONIGHT why it matters so much to her.

Number four, Honey Boo Boo`s mom facing her biggest fear. It`s mayonnaise. She did it right on camera.

Number three, miraculous three-pointer. A high school sophomore tries to save a ball from going out of bounds and she winds up nailing this incredible three-point shot.

That brings us to number two on our SHOWBIZ Countdown of today`s "Must-See Videos". The fishmonger from the U.K. who just may be the next Psy.

Let me bring back entertainment host Holland Reid and actor and comedian Kevin Brown who of course plays Dot Com on "30 Rock."

So, the guy`s name is Mohammad Shahid Nazir. His video, "One Pound Fish" is being called the new "Gangnam Style" because of all the attention it`s getting. Let me show you why right now. Let`s watch it together.

(VIDEO CLIP PLAYING)

HAMMER: I`ve got to tell you, Kevin, I don`t know if you`re with me, I kind of like it. It`s got the Hollywood dance going on. Is it enough to make him the next Psy?

BROWN: No, no way, there`s one Psy. It`s hard to duplicate what Psy did, but he did it organically. He did it naturally. This guy`s trying to be Psy and I`m totally insulted. You want to get a music career, get on "American Idol" like everybody else. Get on "The Voice" or something. But they`re trying to skip the line and I don`t appreciate it.

HAMMER: No fishmonger for Kevin. That`s fine. I understand.

REID: I totally agree. We don`t want to get dead fish.

HAMMER: OK. Dead fish. Got you down for that, Holland.

But for some reason 12 million people around the world are going nuts for this new video tonight. Maybe you`ll change your mind after I reveal to you guys, the real story behind this amazing hit.

Let me bring in CNN International`s Erin McLaughlin. She is in London tonight for SHOWBIZ TONIGHT with really what is an incredible story of this guy`s rise to Internet fame.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

ERIN MCLAUGHLIN, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): It`s a catchy tune. Once you hear it, it`s hard to get it out of your head.

Eight months ago, Mohammed left his home in Pakistan to study business. He got a job at queens market in east London and started singing to entice the ladies to buy his fish.

MOHAMMAD SHAHID NAZIR, SINGER: Ladies, all this -- husband with son with brothers. If you call the ladies, the men automatically come, no problem.

MCLAUGHLIN: One of his customers posted his song to YouTube. More than five million hits later, Nazir has a record deal with Warner Music group, a sister company of CNN. A classic new music video and his song "One Pound Fish" is a contender to top the U.K. singles chart.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: When you have the record as massive as "Gangnam Style", someone has thought what`s going to be the next record, probably doesn`t cost an awful lot to money to make the video. And that`s the great thing with the Internet, with you tube. They have this incredible instant distribution around the planet.

NAZIR: I think I`m looking at dream and someone catch me and I will wake up. So please don`t touch me, I don`t want to wake up. I want to live this dream.

MCLAUGHLIN: Nazir`s celebrity, perhaps, greatest at queens market where he`s known as the one pound fish man. Everyone here seems to know his name.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: One pound fish, very, very good, one pound fish.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Six pound, one pound.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Come on, ladies.

CROWD: One pound fish.

MCLAUGHLIN: And the other stock keepers have one-pound envy.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I live here for years. Come down here and listen, it ranges a little bit. But good luck to him.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

HAMMER: I could do that too. Come on, ladies, my coffee mug.

But it`s pretty amazing, the guy goes from selling fish to a London market just to pay for business school to being on the verge of international stardom within a year. So I give him credit for at least that.

But there`s so many amazing viral videos tonight. However, there can only be number one once on our show. There`s only one video for it. And here it is.

The new music video from the geniuses that brought you the tune that everybody loves to hate. You remember Rebecca Black`s "Friday." Well, meet Allison and Stacy, they are two twins known as Tweenchronic.

(VIDEO CLIP PLAYING)

HAMMER: "Skip Rope". See, already. Holland, I can`t get it out of my head. I think, you know, I`m loving this thing as much as "Friday," which I didn`t love when it first came out.

REID: I think I`m with you on that one. I feel like there`s some jaywalking happening in that video. I didn`t know jump roping was, like, hardcore but, and they`re twins at that. It`s very confusing. It`s very serious, but they`re cute. Just let it go.

HAMMER: No, make no mistake about it, you see a kid jumping rope, you take five paces back. You stand back.

All right, Holland and Kevin, got to wrap it there. Thanks, guys.

We move from "Must-See Videos" to a provocative news maker with none other than movie legend Sylvester Stallone.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

STALLONE: Guys, they get their brains pumped in to be fighters? Yes, actually did.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Stallone gets in the ring on Hollywood`s hottest debate right now. Does movie violence fuel violence in real life? Sly is getting real with us next.

This is SBT, SHOWBIZ TONIGHT on HLN.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(VIDEO CLIP PLAYING)

HAMMER: Well, he`s obviously still got it. He`s 66 years old, but Sly Stallone still gets and sets the bar for action movies. Stallone gives us some classic, high-octane fight scenes in this new movie "bullet to the head." It is pretty wild. SHOWBIZ TONIGHT just spoke with Sly. He`s taking on his enemies with a vengeance here. And he is also weighing in on one of the hottest debates in Hollywood today. Do violent films fuel violence in real life? Obviously, a super sensitive subject these days.

SHOWBIZ TONIGHT Nichelle Turner back with me from Hollywood tonight.

So, Nischelle, as you would expect from Sly Stallone, he`s not holding back one bit on this.

TURNER: No, not holding back and he certainly isn`t slowing down. Now, of course, like you said, A.J., this is the topic that everyone in Hollywood and around the country is talking about right now. But sly Stallone says doing these action films are basically in his DNA. You know, he`s been an action movie star for decades now and says he knows all too well about the influence of film. Take a listen to what he said.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

STALLONE: Do films have an impact on people? Yes. They do. Unfortunately, people are disturbed people. They don`t find it here, they`re going to find it somewhere else. They`re going to find something to serve their bloodlust or their delusion. So I don`t think it pushes them any further over the edge. I mean, there`s definitely a debate. You could debate that pro and con to the end of time. And did "Rocky" make a few guys get their brains punched in to be fighters? Yes, it actually did. And so people are influenced by films, no question about it.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

TURNER: Yes. Eddie Murphy did a comedy bit about that, about "Rocky" influencing people to believe they could actually go out and win a fight when they really couldn`t. Now, Sylvester Stallone says violence in films shouldn`t be there to simply show the violence, not have to show violence, it should have a purpose that movies with violence need to have a message like good triumphing over evil.

By the way, A.J., "Bullet to the Head" opens everywhere February 1st.

HAMMER: And the debate will surely continue.

All right, Nischelle, thank you.

Well, the competition is certainly fierce for SHOWBIZ TONIGHT`s most provocative celebrity of the day. Lindsay Lohan for her no-show court drama. Could it be Rihanna for her alleged pot pic? Or maybe Justin Bieber for his caught on camera`s smoking scandal.

We`re going to name our provocative pic coming up next.

This is SBT, SHOWBIZ TONIGHT on HLN.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

HAMMER: Right now. It is time for SHOWBIZ TONIGHT to name the most provocative celebrity of the day.

And today, there was some pretty fierce competition. Yet Lindsay Lohan`s no-show court drama. You had a picture of marijuana that Rihanna tweeted out. But tonight, the celebrity really stirring the pot so to speak is Justin Bieber.

Justin, SHOWBIZ TONIGHT is naming you the most provocative celebrity of the day. And it`s not just that you got photographs smoking what appears to be pot. There`s also what you tweeted after the photo flap. You wrote, "Like I said, 2013, new challenges, new doubters, I`m ready. We are ready. See you all tomorrow and every day after that."

Well, Justin, I`m not sure that you helped your case. I`m not sure that you hurt your case here. But either way, you aren`t the first and something tells me that you will not be the last star to get into hot water for lighting up.

One thing is for sure, you`re still only 18-years-old. You`ve got a lot riding on your image. So you just might want to keep that in mind the next time you light up.

We move on now to the Colorado movie massacre. Today, the preliminary hearing for shooting suspect James Holmes. It got underway and Dr. Drew`s going to walk us through chilling testimony from one of the cop`s first at the scene.

"DR. DREW ON CALL" starts right now.
