American Idol alum Allison Iraheta is releasing her new single “Friday I’ll Be Over You” and you can hear it now at PopEater.com. The seventeen year old who made it to the final four has just finished the AI tour and is looking ahead for her music.

What were you looking to convey with ‘Friday’?

Pretty much show who I really am as an artist, and what I really want to continue doing for the rest of my life, which is this. Just really do awesome music for the rest of my life.

Catchy tune and it’s perfect for her style – rocker chick with that slightly husky voice.

Nick & Joe Jonas took part in a 5k Run For The Cure Race in Toronto on Sunday October 4th. The brothers were part of the city’s 30,000 people who took part to raise funds for breast cancer research. The guys looked super hot!

The Spring/Summer 2010 fashion collections are showing in Paris this week and Rihanna has been causing a stir everytime she shows up. The fashion forward ‘Umbrella’ singer has been to all the major shows – Karl Lagerfeld, Jean Paul Gautlier, and Martin Margiela. She has her newly blond streaked hair, been wearing all black and has even been photographed in a see-thru dress (pic below.) What do you think of Rihanna’s style?

Jordin Sparks takes being a role model seriously. The American Idol season 6 winner has recently posed for the ‘Drink Milk for a Change’ campaign, focusing on getting teens to make better choices for a healthy alternative to soda. Next up: the singer is part of “America’s Biggest Sleepover” project from BeingGirl.com to foster self-esteem in adolescent and teen girls all over the country.

Tell us about your decision to do Being Girl.

They asked me about it a while ago and I needed to see what was all about first. I saw BeingGirl, logged on, and thought, “This is so cool.” It’s an internet community for girls, by girls. The thing is a girl can log on from New York and talk to someone in Seattle about her issues- boy problems, puberty, whatever she is going through. Sometimes your friends aren’t always there when you need them. I just thought it was the greatest thing. I saw “Sleepover” and I love sleepovers – I was really excited to be a part of that as well. For every girl that registers $1 is being donated to the foundation called Protecting Futures. It’s a foundation that’s all about keeping girls in school. They hit me with a 1-2-3 punch.

Sparks truly takes it to heart her responsibility to all the girls who look up to her.

Go to BeingGirl.com to sign up for the sleepover on November 7th. Get your friends together that night and see an exclusive performance from the ‘Battlefield’ singer. Girl Power!

Video Games – E3 2009 – Attack of the Show

Very funny ‘Twilight’ spoof from Fantastic Fest in Austin, TX. It starts slow, but wait for it… wait for it… Ha! Enjoy!

Hayden Panettiere is letting everyone know that she came up with the idea for the lesbian romance on her hit TV show Heroes.

The Canadian star, who plays cheerleader Claire Bennett in the sci-fi series, will fall for her college roommate, Madeleine Zima, in an upcoming plotline and she reveals it was her idea to get sexy with another girl.

She explains, “I kinda threw it out there… They (writers) put you in relationships and I was like, ‘Can I just be with a girl or something…? Let’s do that.’

“So they took it and ran with it. She’s a great girl… and we have a blast.”

The actress’s idea will certainly help the show that saw sagging ratings for it’s sophmore season last year. Rumer Willis is giving 90210 a boost using the same storyline.

Jesse Eisenberg may be uncomfortable watching himself on screen, but lots of other people aren’t. His latest movie Zombieland, costarring Woody Harrelson and Abigail Breslin, just took the weekend box office number one spot bringing in $25 million on opening weekend. Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs came in second (again!) and the double shot of Pixar Toy Story & Toy Story 2 took third in 3-D. Ellen Page’s latest – the roller derby coming-of-age Whip It! was a disappointing seventh place.

1. Zombieland

2. Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs

4. The Invention of Lying

5. Surrogates

7. Capitalism: A Love Story (tied)

What did you see this weekend?

Friday morning, Selena Gomez stopped by the New York City set of Live With Regis & Kelly to talk about her appearance on Dancing With The Stars, her Disney show Wizards of Waverly Place and on being the UNICEF spokesperson for Halloween Trick or Treat campaign. Enjoy the short interview.

Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester has a debut album due out next year and the first official single “Somebody To Love” will premiere on radio October 27th. The album has production help from American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi as well as others and was originally due out this spring 2009 but has been pushed to winter/spring 2010. There is still no title as of yet to her debut and her previously leaked single “Body Control” may or may not end up on the final release. She’s great on Cobra Starship’s “Good Girls Gone Bad” single so let’s hope there is more like that in store.

Taylor Swift is used to the single life but don’t pity her – she doesn’t feel sorry for herself. The teen star says:

“I wasn’t really popular at high school. I’ve never really been sought-after by guys, but I don’t wallow in it. It’s my comfort zone, being single.” An optimistic Swift adds: “I feel that a lot happens to you when you’re not looking for it so I’m not actively looking for a boyfriend.”

She is bright, talented, young and beautiful. Many guys dream about her. It’s only a matter of time before she’s off the market again.
