Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix is getting real about what it’s like to film with the show and spills the tea on some of her co-stars.
Ariana joined the Pump Rules cast in Season 2 after rumors of a secret hookup between herself and Og Tom Sandoval took the group by storm. Since her addition to the cast, Ariana and Tom have proved to be a solid pair, season after season, despite the continuous drama.

But two things have remained constant for the group: their friendships and partying ways.

MTV News headed to Montreal, Canada to not only visit the zombie apocalypse but participate in it. Christina Garibaldi took a trip to the set of "Warm Bodies," the undead romance set to rekindle audiences' hearts this weekend.
On the set, Garibaldi even got to go full zombie, donning some ragged clothes and undead makeup to fit the part. Then to make for a more convincing member of the horde, she got some helpful advice from star Nicholas Hoult.
"The thing we are trying to stay clear of is overdoing it," Hoult said. "It's just like your body's real tired and heavy, just kind of slump around, you know, on your way back to the club, and your momentum is more carrying you than anything else."
Check out the video from the set visit above!

"Warm Bodies" sounds kind of weird, right? It's a "Twilight"-like paranormal romance, except it's about a zombie? MTV News just had to find out what the latest movie from "50/50" director Jonathan Levine, so Christina Garibaldi headed to the set.
The way star Teresa Palmer describes it, the somewhat silly premise is a way to have your brains and eat them too.
"When you think of zombie movies you think of R-rated, everyone eating brains, blood and gore, craziness like that," she said. "In our film, it's great because we sort of get the best of both worlds and we get to see that typical zombie genre, but then there's also a lot more emotional depth to our film and there's a love story and these zombies they were once real people and they still have the same feelings and thoughts, especially R."
"Warm Bodies" opens on February 1.

Big Time Rush then brought me onstage (pre-show), where they officially made me an honorary member of the group. But they may have had to rethink that decision after they tried to teach me some dance moves. Let's just say it wasn't pretty!
