L.C. Heading for the Hills

 

04.28.09 

This Fall, new episodes of MTV's "The Hills" will be minus their star. Lauren Conrad has decided to leave the popular reality show and move on towards other ventures. The regular cast members, Audrina, Heidi, Spencer, Brody, Lo, Stephanie and Justin Bobby will continue to provide audiences with plenty of drama and surprises. And in typical Heidi fashion, she has said that the show will be stronger than ever and will continue on just fine without Lauren. Good luck to Miss Conrad and thanks for all the memories!

Pet Psychic Finds Chihuahua

 

04.28.09 

Tinker Bell sure was flying Saturday, but not by choice. Tinker Bell is not a flighty little fairy, but a 6 pound chihuahua in Rochester, Michigan that got carried away by 70 mph winds at a flea market. More than 50 volunteers came together to search for little Tinker Bell, but to no avail. Tinker Bell's owner confided in a pet psychic and was lead to her doggie about 3/4 of a mile from the flea market! Apparently owner & pup were ecstatic to see eachother and we're so glad there was a happy ending to this story :)

Pitch Perfect!

 

04.24.09 

A 12 year old girl in Bayonne, New Jersey pitched a perfect baseball game against all boys. Mackenzie Brown sent every boy back to the dug out after their attempted swings at her pitches. She is the first girl in Bayonne Little League history to have a perfect game. Mackenzie will be throwing out the first pitch at Citi Field this Saturday when the New York Mets host the Washington Nationals. She thinks it's pretty crazy when her teachers have asked for her autograph and seeing herself on the news. But I don't think anyone needs to worry about this attention going to Mackenzie's head, she's just glad that she can throw a pitch the way she does. Way to go, Mackenzie! You're the kewlest!!

Role Model Miley

 

04.24.09

With constantly being in the spotlight, Miley Cyrus has realized that there are tons of girls that look up to her and she is comfortable with that. She has accepted and enjoys the fact that she's a role model. She just want her fans to emulate the positive things that she does, but not to repeat her mistakes. She will learn from her mistakes and hopes that her fans will learn from them, too. Well, so far, so good, Miley! It's comforting to know that young girls have someone to look up to who cares about the image she's projecting!

Looks like Leighton Meester calls more than the Upper East Side home. This "Gossip Girl" has been quite at home in the recording studio prepping for her upcoming debut album to be released this fall! Universal Republic Records signed Leighton to a contract and they are already very impressed with her energy, professionalism, knowledge and opinions of her music. She has already been working with famous producers who have collaborated with Justin Timberlake, Pink, Usher & Fergie. We cannot wait to hear Miss Waldorf's album, just as long as this new venture doesn't distract from her schemes and shenanigans in the NYC!

 

Earth Day 2009

 

04.22.09 

Everyday should be Earth Day! Even though April 22 is the official day to recognize treating our Earth with the respect she deserves, we should all act that way every day of the year. More than 1 billion people participate in Earth Day activities, which began in 1970 to bring attention to the environmental impact we are making on the earth. Earth Day is a reminder for all to make the world a cleaner and healthier place to live. We can all do our part, be it big or small. Inexpensive ways to reduce your carbon footprint are using energy efficient lightbulbs, recycling and carpooling. And don't forget to turn off those lights and unplug your computers when not in use. Happy Earth Day!

Vanessa is "Beastly"

 

04.22.09 

And by "Beastly," we mean her latest film project cause there's no way that cutie could ever be described as beastly ;) The movie is a modern day take on "Beauty and the Beast,"  based on the novel by Alex Flinn, which is set in Manhattan. A good lookin' guy with the world at his feet, but with a mean streak, likely to be played by Alex Pettyfer, plays the role of the Beast. When this guy blows off a date, he is cursed and must find true love to break the spell. And enter Vanessa Hudgens. Filming will begin this summer and this is sure to help V break away from the "High School Musical" franchise and get her film career off the ground.

Simon to Exit Idol?

 

04.21.09 

We all know that Simon Cowell is one to speak his mind while juding "American Idol." Usually, despite the boo's heard from the audience, there's a lot of truth to what the Brit has to say. Is there truth to his latest words about leaving "American Idol" after next season? Well, Simon said that he'd rather leave before he and the audience gets bored. He has a contract binding him to one more season, but after that, it's his call. He said that the show would survive without him, but I don't know, "American Idol" just wouldn't be the same without our favorite tee shirt wearing judge.

South for the...Spring?

 

 

04.21.09 

There are some Canadian Geese that like calling North Carolina home. For the third year in a row, a pair of geese have built their nest on the grass in front of a Belk department store in Cary, North Carolina.  Apparently, the mother goose tends to the nest and babies, while the father keeps watch while patroling. He does not see the shoppers going in and out of the store as a threat and doesn't bother them. The store's employees have covered the lower part of the windows to the store so that papa goose will not peck at his reflection, thinking it's another goose coming to ruffle some feathers!

04.20.09 

Ever wonder how Lily van der Woodsen on "Gossip Girls" went from a Los Angeles band groupie to Upper East Side matron? Well, you'll get a chance to peek into Lily's life pre-Serena in the spin-off "Valley Girls." The pilot episode is scheduled to air May 11.  Lily Rhodes of L.A. is played by Brittany Snow of "Hairspray" and "American Dreams" fame. Other "Valley Girl" cast members includ Andrew McCarthy, Ryan Hansen and Krysten Ritter, who plays Lily's sister.

Disney Announces New Princess!

 

 

04.19.09 

Disney has not bestowed us with a new princess in over ten years, but that will change in November of this year. And what's even cooler is that this will be Disney's first African American Princess. It's about time! Princess Tiana will star in "The Princess and the Frog," which takes place in New Orleans. In the movie, what's important to Tiana is that women need to find a balance of love and career to find happiness. One cannot rely purely on a prince to supply happiness and fulfillment in her life. Way to go Disney for expanding the princess "type" and for making her a modern woman while you're at it!

Dueling Twitters

 

04.18.09 

"The Hills" bad boy, Spencer Pratt, has challenged Ashton Kutcher to a Twitter duel! His proposition for Ashton is a 30 day contest to see who has the most followers on Twitter. Ashton has already proven his twit-ularity by beating out CNN as the first user to reach 1,000,000 followers. Being such a kewl, considerate guy, Ashton donated $10,000 to the Malaria No More Fund, which buys mosquito bed nets for those living in areas filled with malaria-laden mosquitoes, when he won the contest. It looks like Spencer has his work cut out for him, cause Ashton seems to have quite a following!

Zac to be on the Big Screen Again!

 

04.13.09 

The rumors have been confirmed and Zac Efron will be bringing a cartoon character to life in the movie "Jonny Quest!" Zac's hope is that the action role will help casting directors see him as something other than just another pretty, dancing face.  Some fans of the 1960's cartoon may question the choice of casting Zac because he's 21 and Jonny was 11 years old. There's no news yet about co-stars and directors, but Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is said to be circling the project. We're sure that this is another role in the long line of movies we'll see from Mr. Efron in the upcoming years!

Miss Stewart was casual in a black top and no makeup. What a lucky birthday girl!

04.09.09 

Zac Efron held a pool party and we weren't invited! That's because it's a new comedic web video for funnyordie.com In the vid, Zac is hosting a celeb filled party with guests such as his girl, Vanessa, Nicole Richie, Joel Madden, Queen Latifah, Lance Bass, Carmen Electra and Brody Jenner.

Texting Trouble!

 

04.08.09 

Talk about overage! A 13 year old Wyoming girl sent 10,000 text messages on one month, which may not sound like a big deal to some of you, but it would if you had to pay for every...single...text! Yes, her phone did not have a text plan and her parents thought that because there was no plan, that she wasn't capable of texting from her phone. The grand total of fees came to $4,756.25. WHEW! The cell phone plan provider has agreed to lower the bill to a payable amount, but the poor teen? Well, she's grounded till the end of the school year and doesn't even have a phone because her dad smashed it to bits!

Jessica Dropped by Label

 

 

04.07.09 

While watching the Academy of Country Music Awards Sunday night, did you happen to think, "where's Jessica Simpson?" She has been touring with Rascal Flatts and inching her way into the country music community. So, why wasn't she at the awards show honoring the style of music she's been singin'? Well, turns out the native Texan was dropped by her country label, Columbia Nashville. She hopped a flight to Cabo instead of attending the awards show. Her recent country-fied concerts haven't exactly been going smoothly with forgotten lyrics and jeering crowds (it's not nice to jeer). We're sorry this didn't work out for Jess, but we think she's a great pop starlet and wish her continued success in that genre.

Robert's Embarrassing Injury

 

04.07.09 

Aww, Robby got a boo boo. Our fave vampire confessed that he injured himself during his first day of shooting "Twilight." While lifting Kristen Stewart during their initial scenes together, Robert damaged ligaments in his, uh, bum. Before he could continue shooting, he had to get a massage on the injured area and receive treatment! However, Robert denies any head injury that was rumored to occur recently while filming "The Twilight Saga's New Moon." Supposedly, a gush of wind caused a metal sign to blow off, hit him on the head and knock him to the ground. We sure hope that's not true because we'd hate to see any damage done to that handsome face!

Chase leaves GG set!

 

04.06.09 

Don't worry, our hottie, Nate is not leaving the Upper East Side. However, Chase Crawford, one of many hunks on "Gossip Girl" has escaped New York to escape hordes of girls that keep singing songs from "Footloose" to him while on set. After Zac Efron pulled out of the film, Chace's name was attached, but still no definite word if he will be playing the role made famous by Kevin Bacon in 1984. Chase would like to move into the world of films and has had some successful screen tests. How could he not? He's gorgeous! Extra security had to be brought on set to keep the "Footloose" singing gals away so filming could proceed as normal. Chase is fed up and is heading to his home state of Texas to chill out and hopefully not hear those songs again anytime soon. Let's hear it for the boy!

Carrie's Top Secret Dress

 

04.05.09 

Security was tight as country cutie, Carrie Underwood, rehearsed for the Academy of Country Music Awards. If you were in the building, you had to promise no photos, video or describing the gown that she'll be wearing for her performance at the awards show. That must be some kewl dress!! Carrie has described the dress as being big, alot of dress and could be compared to water, perhaps lava. ??? Wow, we can't wait to see this dress! She's no stranger to stunning dresses, known to make several changes during just one awards show. But she says there are so many great dresses out there, why not have changes throughout the night. We agree! To see Carrie in THE dress singing her heart out and to see if she takes home the award for Entertainer of the Year, tune in to CBS TONIGHT at 8:00pm.

Ashton K. and Katherine Heigl Caught Smooching!

 

04.04.09 

Before you start spreading rumors faster than Gossip Girl, let us set the record straight: the pair is filming a movie together and were shooting a scene where they have to lock lips. The movie, "Five Killers," is about a vacationing woman meeting her ideal man, which leads to a swift marriage. Back at home, however, their idyllic life is upset when they discover their neighbors could be assassins who have been contracted to kill the couple. Ooh, sounds romantic and exciting all rolled into one movie! Not to mention Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl (Grey's Anatomy) are just so pretty, how can you go wrong watching them on the silver screen? BTW, both actors' spouses were on set, so I doubt we'll have another Brad and Angelina issue on our hands!

Lindsay Didn't Make the List

 

04.04.09 

Lindsay Lohan was denied access to the I Heart Ronson fashion line party last night! I Heart Ronson is a clothing line developed by Samantha Ronson's sister, Charlotte. The line can be found at JC Penney. Apparently, the family did not want the slightest chance of drama at the party held at the infamously star infested Bar Marmont on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood, so they didn't invite Lindsay. However, rumor has it that Lindsay arrived ANYWAY and had to be turned away by five bouncers. Paris and Nikki Hilton and Kim Kardashian were a few celebs that did make it past the bouncers and partied the night away with the Ronsons.

MILEY & JO-BROS TO DUET!!

 

04.03.09 

Our prayers have been answered! Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers will be entering the recording studio TOGETHER to record the song "Pass It On." Rumor has it this session and making the video will happen very, very soon. The song was written by the same team who wrote the soundtrack "Hoedown Throwdown" for "Hannah Montana: The Movie." There will be a theme of love, sharing, caring and passing that feeling onto others, in the song, which Disney says will be this generations' "We Are the World." News has not been released on the other singers which will be participating in "Pass It On." Miley has said that she hopes recording with the brothers will dispell any rumors that there is bad blood between them. She says they are very close & good friends.  Look at them just passing on good vibes of friendship to the rest of us!

Aiken to Be America's Next Top Model!

 

04.03.09 

Has Clay Aiken decided to switch career paths and become a supermodel?? Not quite. Clay, the runner up of "American Idol" season two, will be appearing on "America's Next Top Model" to assist the contestants in an acting challenge. Clay will be the girls' scene partner in the "acting like a model" challenge. He will also sit at the judge's table alongside Tyra, Miss J & Nigel Barker to help determine who will not be America's Next Top Model. This should be a good episode, but it'd be much more fun to watch Clay walk the runway!! Tune into the CW to watch April 8th.

Jonas Not J.O.N.A.S

 

04.02.09

This is your official 30 Day countdown till the premiere of JONAS!

Some of you might remember that the original title for the soon to be aired JoBros TV show was called "J.O.N.A.S" which stood for "Junior Operatives Networking As Spies". Phew! The original concept had been about the Jonas Brothers living a double life as spies.

However the JoBros series went through a few changes and is a very different  show... This new version shows the JoBros learning to cope with being pop stars while trying to live an ordinary life. The series will be set in New Jersey (even though it's actually shot in Los Angeles!) The Bros all live together in an old firehouse that has been converted into a home.

According to Chelsea Staub, who plays Stella, she becomes a stylist for the boys. Their characters are described as, "exaggerated versions of themselves. Nick plays a very intense writer, always working. Joe’s goofy and Kevin’s hysterical."

The brothers attend the private Horace Mann Academy with their longtime friend Stella Malone (Chelsea Staub) and their biggest fan Macy Misa (Nicole Anderson). They will also live with their real life little bro, Bonus Jonus Frankie and their bodyguard.

Miley on Idol!

 

04.02.09

Our little songbird took to the "American Idol" stage last night to sing her hit, "The Climb." But before you get too upset that you didn't have tickets to see this in person, know this: she performed the song before the audience was admitted into the studio. I bet those audience members sure were bummed that they were SO close to seeing her live! But they shoud be thrilled that they got to see crooner David Cook and the incomparable Lady Gaga wow us with their talent. Miley's appearance on "Idol" is to promote her upcoming movie. The episode of "American Idol" is slated to air April 15. Don't forget to set your tivos!!

Frog Goes Under the Knife

 

04.01.09 

Brullie the giant bullfrog now holds the title of first frog with an artificial leg bone! A South African woman adopted Brullie in 1984, so obviously she's quite attached to him. He was injured by a dog and Brullie's owner rushed him to the vet to help Brullie bounce again. The vet was hesitant because he had never heard of an operation on a frog, but he decided to give it a go and inserted a tiny steel rod into Brullie's right leg. The doctor did the operation free of charge, which sure was nice of him. It took several hours after the operation for Brullie to come around, but he's now scooting around and according to xrays, he'll heal and be as good as new!

Exes to Share the Screen

 

04.01.09 

Former lovebirds, Drew Barrymore and Justin Long will both be appearing in the romantic comedy "Going the Distance." The pair fell for each other while filming "He's Just Not That Into You" and were an inseparable couple for one year. You've seen Drew in, well, too many movies to list, but she will be playing Young Edie in HBO's "Grey Gardens" airing April 18. Justin played the flamboyant art gallery employee in "The Breakup" starring Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston and you've most likely seen him in those Mac commercials. "Going the Distance" is about a couple trying to make a long distance relationship work. Too bad Drew and Justin couldn't go the distance because they seemed on top of the world together. We love any movie with Drew and are looking forward to "Going the Distance!"
