Leighton Meester on the cover of Seventeen Magazine


The teen mags love her!

Gossip Girl's Queen B, Leighton Meester, scored the March cover of Seventeen magazine.

In the mag, Meester talks about her parents' troubled past and the unconventional road to romance.

On romance, she said,
"I don’t want any rules whatsoever. If you want to call, just call. But it’s really about the specific person and the chemistry that he has with you. It’s easy to have chemistry with a bad boy, but it’s also easy to have chemistry with somebody who’s really chill and intelligent. He just has to be the right balance of everything.”

Check out the video of her photoshoot below!

Quite an odd combination, don't you think?

Introducing Kanye's alter-ego

It's official, Kanye West has lost it. First the mullet, and now this super bizarre video in which he refers to himself as “Martin Louis The King, Jr.”

Has all this success with LV gone to his head?

Megan Fox as Lara Croft?

Image via entertainmentwise.com

Rumour has it that Angelina Jolie's doppelganger, Megan Fox, will be taking her place as Lara Croft for the newest installment of Tomb Raider.

They are quite alike..with the long dark hair, the plump pout, and all the tattoos. Fox has even said that she would love to lock lips with Jolie.

But wait a minute...didn't Meg once say she looks waaay better than Ang?

Do you think Megan Fox would make a good Lara Croft?

Obama's version of "Single Ladies"

This actually made me laugh out loud!

Ever since watching the SNL parody of Beyonce's "Single Ladies" music video, I have been obsessed with any other version that has popped up on the internet (for example, this little girl, and of course, Shane Mercado on the Bonnie Hunt Show).

Of course, this would have been funnier if it was actually Mr. President himself, but it's nonetheless pretty awesome!

Enjoy!

Leona Lewis - I Will Be (Video Premiere)

It's finally here! Leona Lewis' latest music video featuring Gossip Girl hottie, Chace Crawford has been released!

It's a beautiful song, but I'm not too sure about the concept of the video. I do love the fingerless gloves on her though!

What do you think of "I Will Be?"

Catching Up: Michelle Obama for Vogue, Armani vs. D&G, and more Kelly Rutherford divorce drama


It's confirmed! The First Lady, Michelle Obama, will be on the cover of the March issue of Vogue [Fashionista].

Designer Giorgio Armani is accusing Dolce&Gabbana for copying one of his designs [The Guardian].

The Kelly Rutherford divorce is getting ugly! The GG actress and her estranged husband have been forced to testify in court regarding issues around their son [People.com].

White House Fashion


The thing on everyone's mind is the dress Michelle Obama wore last night at the inauguration ball.

The one-shouldered white ball gown was designed by Jason Wu, a 26-year-old Taiwanese-American whose first collection debuted less than three years ago.

Along with designing, he is the creative director of Integrity Toys, a luxury doll company that makes over-priced dolls wearing runway-inspired clothing. Wu has been with this company since he was seventeen.

What did you think of Michelle Obama's dress?

Kanye has a mullet!


Kanye West was sported a mullet at the MTV & ServiceNation: Live From The Youth Inaugural Ball event in D.C. on Tuesday night.

Don't quite think it suits him..but what are your thoughts?

Scarlett Johnasson for Dolce & Gabbana

Image via perezhilton.com

Actress Scarlett Johansson will be the face of the new Dolce & Gabanna line of cosmetics.

“Scarlett is sure of herself. She’s a beautiful girl, but she’s really easygoing. She is very Dolce & Gabbana,” the Italian designing duo said.

“We see makeup as another thing for women, like a dress. We worked on the makeup line like we work on a clothing collection — you can change makeup like you can change your clothes, depending on your mood,” Stefano Gabbana told WWD on Friday.

The collection will include lipsticks scented with rose.

“We wanted to create makeup with a scent," said Gabbana. "Domenico and I remember when we were children and opened our mother’s handbags — the scent of her lipstick trailed out. I observed that when women open makeup, they smell it first.

Johansson was recently photographed for a series of Marilyn Monroe-inspired print ads (see above) that will debut in magazines later this year.

The collection itself will launch this Spring, with prices ranging from $20 for nail polish to $59 for powder foundation.

Nina Ricci fights back!


Remember when Hot Topic put up the Twilight perfume for sale, but the bottle was exactly like the one for Nina by Nina Ricci?

Well, Nina Ricci has confirmed that they will be filing a lawsuit against the makers of the Twilight perfume for taking their design.

Now I can go back to wearing my signature scent, anger-free!

Gossip Girl spin-off confirmed!

Image via fanpop.com

Are you ready for more GG?

After denying earlier reports, the producers of the hit TV show have now confirmed that yes, there will be a spin-off of Gossip Girl that will focus on a younger Lily van der Woodsen in Hollywood in the '80s.

The spin-off will begin with Lily and her outcast sister moving to the San Fernando Valley after an argument with her parents. Leaving her world of luxury behind for a place she once made fun of, she embarks in an adventure in Hollywood, where surely, she'll be getting into a bunch of trouble, and of course, meet Rufus, and become impregnated.


Gossip Girl creators/executive producers, Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage selected their characters, timeframe, and location because they "didn't want to upset the chemistry of [their] cast - all of whom are crucial to the show. Nor did [they] want to dilute New York City as a character."

Seems like a way to milk their success even more to me!

Will you watch the spin-off?

Ed and Chace on "The View"

Gossip Girl hottie overload!

Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford were recently guests on The View where they talked about rooming with each other, their influence on teens, and dealing with rumours.

They both looked amazing...but I have a feeling the ladies on The View were smitten with Ed's accent!

Best Dressed: Selena Gomez


Miley Cyrus could use some lessons from her!

Disney star, Selena Gomez, looked classy and elegant, yet still age-appropriate at the green carpet premiere of Hotel For Dogs at the Grove Theater in Los Angeles on Thursday evening.

For a 16-year-old, the girl has style!

TEAM SELENA!

I <3 you, American Apparel.

Recession? What recession?

With items like these, I don't feel like saving, I just want to spend, spend, spend!

I guess that makes me a good citizen for the economy.

My current cravings...

Shiny Legging in Lamé Black










Unisex Flex Fleece Zip Hoody in Black

On second thought, I think I need to add more colour in my wardrobe other than black...

Victoria Beckham's Armani ads!


They're here! Victoria Beckham's Armani underwear ads have finally been released.

The short hair, smoky eyes, killer bod and sky-high heels are very Posh.

According to etalk, the former Spice Girl worked very hard on preparing her body for the ads.

She looks fabulous, but I have to say David Beckham's photos are still my fav!

Even the most beautiful people have insecurities...



P.S.: Her fiance seems like a jerk!

One of these things is not like the other...

Miley Cyrus's latest YouTube vid features her much older boyfriend, Justin Gaston.

While Miley and her much older best friend, Mandy Jiroux, make complete fools of themselves as usual, Justin appears to be just sitting there awkwardly, just waiting for his turn to show the world his musical abilities...and boy does he have talent!

If you skip to the 5:30, you'll hear his performance of his original song, "If She Makes Me Happy." His vocals, and guitar and song-writing skills are quite good, but of course, Miley ruins it by dancing and singing along, while Mandy bobs around awkwardly.

In the end, Mandy gives him a high five, while Miley gives her boy a hug (and there's no denying that they're together...just look at her face when he introduces his song!)

Blake Lively on the cover of Vogue



Old hollywood suits her well!

Gossip Girl's Blake Lively looks stunning on Vogue's February cover.

Additional photos, the story, and a video is posted on vogue.com.

I am a die-hard Blair fan, but this defintely beats out Leighton Meester's Teen Vogue shoot!

Bizarre video of the day

I saw this video posted on Fashionista...

Gossip Girl's Taylor Momsen is being bombarded by the paparazzi after a workout.

As a camera gives her the one-over, the Nike swoosh is very visible on her sports bra, as well as on her shoes.

Taylor puts on her Ray-Bans, and jets off, then all of a sudden jumps down from one flight of stairs to the next, slides down the banister, runs in a parking lot, only to ALMOST get hit by a car (no biggie, she just jumps on the car, and jumps off), jumps on more cars, and jumps and reaches a balcony, where she runs off into the distance...

Either Taylor's workouts with Teen Vogue have made her an exceptional gymnast, or somehow, a stunt double came in.

And is a Nike campaign in Taylor's future? Sneaker campagisn seem to be a trend for those Gossip Girl stars...just look at Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick!


Oh so Coco!

Image via ohsococo.blogspot.com

Confession: I am fascinated with models. Especially the ones who are super sweet and down to earth etc. (I was lucky enough to encounter such a model at L'Oreal Fashion Week named Marie-Helene...but there was also a rather bitchy one who will be left unnamed...).

Coco Rocha is one of my favourites. She's exceptionally good at the job, and she seems so friendly and personable.

So..when I discovered that Coco has her own blog, I was so excited that I dropped all my required readings I had to do for class to read the entire thing. Fortunately for my grades, it's fairly new, so there weren't too many entries.

The photos, the videos, and the multiple exclamation marks are truly Oh So Coco.

Chace + Leona = ?



Here are some images of Gossip Girl hottie, Chace Crawford with Leona Lewis on the set of her new music video of "I Will Be."

Lewis has recently admitted to having a crush on Crawford, and "couldn't resist flirting with [him]" even though she's been dating her electrician boyfriend since she was nine, a source told Star Magazine recently.

"Even when the shoot was finished, Chace and Leona hung out. You could tell Chace really liked her, and it looked like the feelings were mutual," the source added.

Leona has said Chace is "one of the nicest people [she's] met."

"Super talented and he's in one of my new fave series' Gossip Girl."

Do you think these two would make a good couple?

Nicole Richie to appear on Gossip Girl?


Socialite and former bad-girl turned mommy, Nicole Richie, is reportedly set to appear on an episode of Gossip Girl.

Richie has recently showed off her acting skills when she guest starred in Chuck in October as a vicious cheerleader.

She's said to be eyeing a similar role on the season finale of GG.

A source says, "Nicole loves Gossip Girl and she wants a really bitchy, juicy role."

Just saying, but that wouldn't require much acting!

Update: According to Nicole's rep, "This isn’t true information."

Twilight DVD cover!

Is a re-recording in the works?
