Welcome to GUY CODE, the official blog of MTV2's "Guy Code" series and your online destination for all things dude, including—but not limited to—irreverent commentary on sports, hip-hop and ladies. Stay awhile and flex your manhood.
Ice-T doesn't just play a detective on TV: the dude's a sleuth in real life too. On yesterday's episode of "Ice Loves Coco," Coco made an odd connection between her salsa instructor and a gynecologist that immediately caused Ice-T to perk up. "You have to get close to them very quickly," she said.
Say what? So Ice-T immediately put things in perspective for Coco and sent a warning shot to potential home wreckers for this week's dose of "Wisdom on Ice." I'd hate to be a utility man doing work at their pad after this...
Meet King James' superfan Nathan Blackhall of South Florida (@AyYoNateOh; at right, above), who recently got inked with the basketball superstar's bust on his leg. Who would go under the gun for a tattoo of a professional athlete? Well, a guy like Blackhall who really, really likes LeBron James. Although the tattoo looks as much like a younger version of Michael Wilbon as it does the Heat forward.
Predictably, the haters have swarmed online, but it appears Nate has deflected his critics with a powerful hate-shield. But Nate has at least one admirer of the tattoo: LeBron James himself. We all know how much LeBron likes LeBron, so it's no surprise that he approves of a dude who got a tattoo with this mug. LeBron responded to the picture of Nate's tat: "Oh damn! That's how u feel. I appreciate the love."
Rumor has it that Nate got a sick deal on a tattoo that size and only paid 75 percent the retail price. The fourth quarter was free. ZING!
Good news, young men eager to look like your hero Lil Wayne: He's coming out with his very own fashion line! Rebirth, which it will be called, will allow you to look "funky" like Weezy himself. According to Wayne, the line will be for those who look at him and think, "Damn, I'd love to have that safety pin he got on." Really. That's how he's pitching it.
We can all agree this is a bad idea, right? If for nothing else because rapper fashion lines so rarely work out. Hell, Lil Wayne has already got one failed fashion line under his funky belt. And yet, no matter how ugly Weezy's line ends up being, there's almost no chance that it'll be ugly enough to crack this list of the very worst rapper fashion lines. Read More...
The cast of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" cameth* to San Diego Comic-Con decked out in attire from its popular "The Nightman Cometh" episode (and later the play by the same). To which we say: "ahh-ahhhhhhh." How many other TV show casts would go on tour performing an expansion of a ridiculous plot from its show, and then double down by dressing up in those characters on a panel at Comic-Con? Probably just this one.
If there's any disappointment to be had here, it's that Charlie wasn't dressed as Green Man, but that wouldn't have made much sense. And if you're wondering when "Sunny" comes back to a TV near you, Season 7 premieres on Thursday, Sept. 15 at 10 p.m. But for now, chew on these great images of the gang from Comic-Con, also known collectively as the best group costume for crews that roll with four penises and one vagina.

Saturday night, live on MTV2, Bellator Fighting Championships went international, holding its first event in the great white North. At Casino Rama in Rama, Canada, the Summer Series continued at Bellator 47 with the semifinals of the Featherweight tournament. Also featured was the debut of IFL and WEC veteran lightweight Chris Horodecki. Last on the card was a clash between titanic men to whet our appetites for the upcoming heavyweight tournament. Let's get a recap of these Ontario onslaughts... Read More...
So Jay Cutlercalled off the engagement. That sucks. At least you didn't get left at the altar. Amiright? We're totally not going to try and come on to you via an open letter on the internet; rather, we'd like you to think of this as a pep talk.
Here's the deal: Your husband-to-be-no-longer may say he got cold feet, but he really just has poor footwork. Forty-two interceptions in his first two seasons with the Bears isn't just the product of a mediocre receivers corps. Brett Fav-rah threw a ton of interceptions too and you probably heard about his extracurricular activities. So maybe you dodged a bullet.
But back to you: We saw a recent photo shoot where you were sporting a bikini and it was a good thing. We mean real good. It won't be long before you get picked up by a guy who has the wits to keep you. In other words, it's not you, it's him you're hot. You'll be just fine. So let him go and good riddance.
And remember: You can always hit us up on Twitter @MTVClutch for more sound advice.
Once you've seen Reggie Watts perform, you never forget Reggie Watts. With a huge Afro and Michael Winslow-like vocal abilities, Watts sings, jokes, improvises and beat-boxes through comedy sets that are never exactly the same twice. Last year turned out to be his best year yet. He released "Why $#!+ So Crazy?" on Comedy Central Records, Rolling Stone named him "Hot Comedian" in their Hot Issue, GQ profiled him in their Man Of The Year issue and he earned "Best of CMJ." Best of all, he toured with Conan O'Brien on the "Prohibited From Being Funny on Television" tour. Do yourself a big favor and go see him on tour now. Or at least check out our Q&A with the comedian after the jump. Read More...
The Tour de France ended yesterday and Cadel Evans became the first Australian to claim the title of best bike rider in the world. We're sorry to say it, but we don't really care. In general, watching the Tour de France is less interesting than C-SPAN. But there are rare glimpses of high entertainment during the race and they always involve blood. Like NASCAR, cycling is only entertaining when people are crashing. Unlike NASCAR, cyclists aren't protected from the hot asphalt by hunks of steel. All that sits between their toned asses and the harsh street is a thin layer of sponsor-adorned bike shorts. So when cyclists crash, they almost always get injured. We celebrate those injuries with these 14 intense photos of Tour de France boo-boos. See you again next year. Read More...
There's no better excuse than summer to have a 64-babe, single-elimination bikini bracket. We'll be rolling out the matchups for the entire month of July. Voting on Elite 8 contests will remain open until Wednesday, July 27 at 10 p.m. ET.
And the contest rolls on to the Elite 8. Excluding 12-seed Eva Mendes' victory over 1-seed Halle Berryand 8-seed Lauren Conrad, who vanquished 4-seed Kim Kardashian, all the higher seeds took care of business. Only one of the contests (4-seed Shakira against 8-seed Jessica Simpson) was even within single digits. (Full results below.) That's how some rounds go.
We don't expect a series of drubbings in the Elite 8, but that's for you to decide. On with the next round of the Smackdown below, starting with...
UPDATE: Voting has now closed for this round. Vote in the current match-ups here.
"Headbangers Ball" is back with a vengeance over at MTV2, where host Jose Mangin gives metalheads their weekly dose of heavy riffs and thrashing vocals. And each week we'll dive in to the show for some metal immersion therapy and come back to you with the five most face-melting moments for metal purists and noobs alike.
This week was all about introductions. A new host, a new format and a couple new music videos. And in this quick introduction, we learned that the world of heavy metal is spreading--from "American Idol" to videos that have more in common with Ke$ha than Slipknot. So it's time to shake off the rust, throw on a black T-shirt, and start headbanging. Read More...
