Free Twilight, New Moon, and Other Prizes!
31 October 2009 2:36 AM, PDT
If there's one thing we like to do, it's giving stuff away. Seriously, we've been doing it for so many years, we can't even recall why we ever started. Everything from CDs and DVDs to jewelry and perfumes to movie tickets and clothing. Sure, it costs us quite a lot every single month; prizes are often donated but we also purchase them ourselves, and we have always burdened the shipping costs, which can be quite high when you consider they are mailed all over the world. We average one prize for every day of the year, or thirty in any given month. That amounts to thousands of prizes in just the past three years alone. With a focus on celebrities, we've always had Jonas Brothers and Twilight merchandise, Miley Cyrus for the kids, and much more, always more. So what are you waiting for? Find out what you've been missing. »

Britney Spears 3 Music Video
30 October 2009 11:42 PM, PDT
Oops, she has done it again! The queen of controversy Britney Spears is infecting the airwaves with yet another sinfully fabulous tune. In true Britney fashion, the music video is outrageously addictive and of course showcases the starlet's best assets and no, it is not her voice. While many fight over whether this song is appropriate for the masses, we are just happy to enjoy another catchy Britney song. Britney Spear's new song 3 is getting many heated because of the apparent underlying meaning of the lyrics. In the hot new video, Brit sports a sexy White leotard and pants, "1,2,3, Not only you and me, Got one eighty degrees, and I'm caught in between countin', 1, 2, 3, Peter, Paul & Mary, Getting' down with 3P." Let the speculation begin! Last spring Brit Brit found herself thrown into the fire at Fox News who called for a boycott of her hit song "If U Seek Amy. »

"New Moon is going to be stepped up a whole nother notch," confidently states star Taylor Lautner. It goes without saying that the werewolves have some great scenes in New Moon and in the latest video to leak from Summit, fans get a behind the scenes look at what went into making the wolf pack sizzle. It is easy to watch the trailer and get caught up in the story, but does anyone stop to think about the work that goes into bringing the werewolves to life? Director Chris Weitz had a tough task on hand when he signed onto New Moon; how was he going to realistically bring to life the werewolf pack? In the latest video interview, Weitz says, "We introduced the world of the werewolves which is also the world of some amazing CGI stuff."

Taylor Swift/Lautner Mania in Full Swing
29 October 2009 11:37 PM, PDT
Admit it; you are just as caught up in Taylor mania as everyone else around you. It's hard not to be curious or even envious of the bond budding between the New Moon hunk Taylor Lautner and the country/pop superstar Taylor Swift. The two are always spotted grinning, giggling, and enjoy each other's company which leads many to believe they are a couple. We are three weeks away from the New Moon La premiere and the hottest slice of chatter right now is whether or not Taylor Lautner will bring his good friend Taylor Swift to the premiere. Many are speculating that bringing her to the event will be their coming out party, so the shutter bugs are preparing to catch that money shot. Chances are if they do show together that picture will be worth lots of dough, maybe as much as the Britney Spears head shave. Taylor Swift »

Last night, security was on high alert as First Lady Michelle Obama and Joe Biden, among other famed New York celebrities, chow down on hot dogs while enjoying America's favorite past time. We saw 30 Rock star Alec Bladwin cheering on his hometeam, Matthew McConaughey sporting the pinstripe, movie directors Spike Lee and Steven Spielberg enjoying first class seats.

Kellan & AnnaLynne, Sitting In a Tree, K.I.S.S.I.N.G.
28 October 2009 11:48 PM, PDT
Are they? Aren't they? Those questions might have been put to rest this past Sunday when New Moon hunk Kellan Lutz was spotted smooching his 90210: The Next Generation costar AnnaLynne McCord. The pair has played the dating game on and off for the past year but judging from the pictures at RadarOnline it seems the couple are hot and heavy again and there's proof! The media excitement began last October when the two were spotted getting cozy at Planet Funk's Fashion Week Kick-off Party at Kress Supper Club. The two rarely shared the screen together in 90210 but when they did the chemistry was undeniable. While Kellan filmed New Moon, AnnaLynne was busy promoting her flick Fired Up (2009) which did surprisingly well at the box office. The two would often meet up in Los Angles; they were even spotted dining at Morton's Steakhouse together but they never officially went public. »

Jonas Brothers Taking a Break: Nick Going Solo
28 October 2009 11:48 PM, PDT
The low buzzed rumors of Jonas Brothers splitting up have been hiding in the shadows for the past couple of years and finally the rumor is stepping into the light. It seems that every major band breaks up at some point; look at the Beatles, Nsync, Destiny's Child, and the Spice Girls, and for some the break is forever. But could this terrible fate really happen to our favorite boy band? In a recent interview with Parade Magazine, Denise Jonas spilled the beans on her son Nick going solo. Jonas Brothers have spent the better half of the past years traveling, creating great music, and dedicating their time to their devoted fans. The modern day Beatles, Jonas Brothers create hysteria wherever they go and have shown no signs of slowing down in the near future. However, as the group grows older, they seem to have different interests, which is extremely »

Even Vampires Play Board Games
27 October 2009 10:52 PM, PDT
The actors who carry out the fantasy of the Twilight Saga captivated us with their youthful spirit, death defying good looks, and their ability to relate to fans. Spending the better part of the past two years together, the cast have become one happy family. On set they are roommates, neighbors, shopping partners, and at times, on a closed set they are the only interaction with the outside world. So when you are uberfamous and god-like role models to millions, how do you pass the time? The New Moon cast is opening up on life inbetween takes and you might be surprised how they like to spend their free time. Our skewed view of young Hollywood has us believing that all young starlets have reserved bar stools at Empire every night. That is not the case, unless you are watching The Hills, but not all young stars are like that. »
