Another day, another juicy segment of our interview with the cast of "The Hunger Games" to roll out and examine. Tuesday's (February 7) installment has a slight caveat, however. For those who have yet to read Suzanne Collins' book "Catching Fire" — the follow-up to "The Hunger Games" — please take this as a friendly warning that the proceeding comments from stars Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson veer heavily into spoiler territory for the tentatively planned big-screen sequel.

When MTV News caught up with Lawrence and Hutcherson recently, we asked them what they hope to see in a sequel. Lawrence quickly brought up a very big step in the relationship between Katniss and Peeta.

"We get married!" the actress exclaimed, looking at Hutcherson and pointing to her ring finger with girlish enthusiasm.

"[It's] very exciting," Hutcherson said, though we detected a bit of hesitation in his voice.

Lawrence revealed that she did the "ring finger move" to Hutcherson whenever she wanted to annoy him on set. "God, I sound really annoying whenever I talk about myself in the past," she admitted. The Oscar nominee then apologized to Hutcherson, who seemed genuinely entertained by her commentary.

Looking even further ahead, past "Catching Fire," we asked about talk that the third book might be split into two films. "It's always hard, every time you convert a novel into movies, because you have to cut so much out," Lawrence said. "[So], in a weird way it's kind of a relief because you get to keep everything in there. It is a lot more work [to shoot four films] and we'll probably do them back-to-back."

Finally, we asked the two stars if they had to play another "Hunger Games" character besides their own which they would choose.

"I would probably say President Snow," Hutcherson said. "If I were President Snow, I could make some changes and give some power back to the people."

"Well, now I'm left with a goat," Jennifer joked of the dwindling character options. "Umm."

"Effie has great style," Hutcherson offered.

"Effie! That's it," Lawrence agreed about the pink-haired District 12 escort played by Elizabeth Banks. "God, yeah Effie. Thanks!"

Who would you have cast Jennifer and Josh as in "The Hunger Games," besides Katniss and Peeta? Tell us in the comments!

<P>About a year ago, Justin Bieber made headlines when he lopped off his famous locks in favor of a shorter do. Now, almost 12 months later, he's once again making some hair-related headlines. </p><div class="player-placeholder right" id="vid:667806" width="240" height="211"></div><p> So, what has Bieber done now that has everyone <i>buzz</i>ing? Well, over the weekend, the Biebs was spotted in Los Angeles donning much darker hair than his trademark sandy blond. When Bieber cut off his hair last year, MTV News spoke to his hairstylist, Vanessa Price, who told us about his new look, noting that it had a lot to do with Bieber's growing pains. "We knew it was going to be a big deal," Price explained. "We knew it was going to shock fans, but we also knew it was going to be a change in terms of growing up. I think that's something that people adjust to. "We'd been talking about it for a while and shared some ideas, but literally the day of he was adamant about the haircut. He amped himself up for it," Price continued, before describing his momentary hesitation. "The minute we started cutting, he was like, 'Wait, wait, wait.' He loves it. He's enjoying it." The new hair color coincides with his girlfriend Selena Gomez's hairstyle changes. She recently tweeted a photo of herself sporting multi-colored highlights in her hair. Bieber's new look may be part of a makeover for his upcoming album, <i>Believe,</i> slated for release later this year. He confirmed last week that Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am will appear on the album. Not only does Bieber want to grow up when it comes to his look but also when it comes to his music. "The only conversation we've had about Justin's album that we're about to do is it's really important that it's the proper transition, because we've seen him [with] 'Baby,' now we're watching him grow up," Bieber's longtime vocal producer Kuk Harrell told MTV News in November. "And we can't just throw him into the adult game right away. It has to be the proper transition."</p>

Black Keys Tell Story Behind The Other 'Gold On The Ceiling' Video

The duo shot a clip with director Harmony Korine. And yes, it's plenty weird.

By now, you've probably seen the Black Keys' new video for "Gold on the Ceiling," which premiered Monday on MTV and is a marked departure from the band's previous efforts, which were heavy on stuff like dancing security guards and Todd Bridges cameos. Mostly because it's a live clip, of course.

Still, that doesn't mean the 'Keys didn't want their latest video to follow in the WTF-worthy tradition of their previous. In fact, they actually shot a second video for the song, one directed by oddball auteur Harmony Korine. And, as they told MTV News immediately following the "Gold on the Ceiling" premiere, that never-before-seen clip is most certainly a Harmony Korine production.

"We did a video with Harmony, but it's not really for 'Gold on the Ceiling,'" frontman Dan Auerbach said.

"Well, it is, sort of," drummer Patrick Carney added.

"It's for whatever music we want to put to it. Pretty much we just let Harmony get self-indulgent, do his thing," Auerbach continued. "Pat and I are dressed up like babies, in onesies, and we're in Baby Björns being carried by giants who have our faces. And he also had the ATL Twins in it. They're these twins who are all Fubu'ed out, but they only have sex with the same girl. They're really strange. They sleep in the same bed together."

So when can fans expect to see the fruits of that Harmony Korine collaboration? Even the 'Keys don't seem to be sure ... Instead, they'd rather talk about their co-stars.

"The ATL Twins, they're 'mirror twins,' they're identical, and one's right-handed and one's left-handed," Carney explained. "And therefore they can only date the same woman and sleep in the same bed."

Interesting. And though the video does sound plenty weird, the 'Keys assured us it is very real ... at least most of it, anyway.

"OK, to be honest, the baby thing is fake," Auerbach laughed."But the ATL Twins part is actually real." Was the Black Keys' "Gold on the Ceiling" video weird enough? Leave your comment below.
