Emma Watson has changed her mind and will not return to Brown University this fall.

In March the actress left a statement on her blog saying she was taking a semester off from college so she could handle some new professional jobs and close out the Harry Potter movies.

Late last week, online reports surfaced that she would be dropping out of the Rhode Island institution because of bullying but her spokesperson says not so fast: it’s just a change in the courses she wants to pursue, and Brown doesn’t offer them.

Vanessa Davies, spokesperson for the 21 year-old actress said Emma “absolutely loved her time at Brown” making many good friends from her short time there.

Davies does say Watson will be attending a different college in the fall, but did not name which university.

Watson will have lots of chances to answer questions about this soon – she will be doing loads of press for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 in the coming months.

She is scheduled to start work on The Perks of Being a Wallflower with Logan Lerman, Nina Dobrev and Mae Whitman next month.

The McKinley High glee club, New Directions, will cover Lady GaGa’s anthem “Born This Way” in a very special 90-minute long episode (2.18 – “Born This Way“) dedicated to self-acceptance, which will also crowd the prom queen and prom king on Tuesday (April 26).

Gleek Kurt, played by Chris Colfer, returns to school and he is more confident and better than ever. Tina (Jenna Ushkowitz) and Mercedes (Amber Riley) joined Kurt for a very special rendition of “Born This Way” (listen to audio below). 90 MINUTES!! Lots of fun and music!

The beautiful Emma Roberts, who recently premiere her first scary movie “Scream 4” (photos here), plays a very complicated and beautiful girl named Sally, actor Freddie Highmore’s love interest in the upcoming movie “The Art Of Getting By”, which was originally titled “Homework” (watch Sundance sneak peek video here).

Check out the official movie trailer bellow. Freddie plays George, a lonely, fatalistic and artistic kid who has never ever completed a homework assignment. George is given a probation as he is mentored by Dustin, played by Kristen Stewart’s ex-boyfriend Michael Angarano.

Nice cast. Good movie. It’s not exactly Oscar material, but seems to be entertaining and have a meaningful message. “The Art of Getting By” premiered at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival and will hit theaters on June 17, 2011.

Glee star Chris Colfer is adding one more notch to his resume.

The 20 year-old actor has written and sold a TV pilot to Disney based on the kids book The Little Leftover Witch, by Florence Laughlin. The storyline follows a young witch who takes a tumble off her broom and has to stay with the human Doon family for one year  because witches can only fly on Halloween night.

Colfer has written (and sold) a screenplay before. Struck by Lightning, the indie movie he penned, will film after the Glee tour he’s about to embark on with the cast.

The talented Colfer has done all this before his 21st birthday (May 27th FYI.)

What’s up next Chris?

“Scream 4” co-stars, Emma Roberts and Rory Culkin, the younger brother of Macaulay Culkin, share the cover of the upcoming Young Hollywood issue of Nylon Magazine (May 2011)- pictures below.

Both Emma and Rory confessed they are total goofballs and they clearly had lots of fun during the photo shoot. The 20 year-old actress talks about her Disney years and the desire to be on Glee, while the 21 year-old actor talked about boxing, music and his movie career.

Here are some highlights from Emma and Rory’s Nylon interview:

Emma, on her Disney years: “I loved that part of my life. A lot of people that were on Disney or Nickelodeon bash it afterwards. And I just think, That’s what got you your start! And also, from my experience, it was so fun. It was the calm before the storm… if you make the transition [as an actor] in the same way that you’re transitioning in real life, you’ll be fine. It’s when you’re 16 and you’re trying to play a 20-year-old hitchhiking stripper that people are gonna give you a hard time.”

Rory, on the choice between boxing and music: “Boxing is a little more mindless and takes me away from everything. Music can do that, too, but it’s another art form, you know what I mean? It’s something to be passionate about. Whereas boxing is like, I wanna kick some ass and get my ass kicked. It’s awesome.”

Rory, on his film roles up until now: “I’ve been sort of scared of certain roles in the past, almost to the point of being kind of snobbish… Now I’m just a lot more open to things – I’m starting to feel the need to exercise my acting and leave my comfort zone. I think Scream is an example of that.”

Emma, on Glee: “I love that Gwyneth Paltrow’s on Glee. That’s something you would never think she’d do. And the fact that she just thought, I’m gonna let loose and do this – that’s so cool!”

Demi Lovato Leaving Sonny With a Chance

Demi said, “I literally didn’t know why they were being so mean to me. And when I would ask them why, they would just say, ‘Well, you’re fat.’ I developed an eating disorder, and that’s kind of what I’ve been dealing with ever since.”

“I was compulsively overeating when I was eight years old,” she said. “So, I guess, for the past 10 years I’ve had a really unhealthy relationship with food.”

“It was a way of expressing my own shame, of myself, on my own body,” she told Roberts. “I was matching the inside to the outside. And there were some times where my emotions were just so built up, I didn’t know what to do. The only way that I could get instant gratification was through an immediate release on myself.”

“I was performing concerts on an empty stomach,” she said. “I was losing my voice from purging. I was self-medicating. I was not taking medication for depression, and I literally was so emotionally whacked out that I took it out on someone that meant a lot to me.”

This is serious kids. Demi’s life was dramatically changed by those mean comments. The actress/singer also admitted she attacked her dancer, Alex Welsh, who was also her friend before the incident.

Actress/singer Demi Lovato just announced she is leaving the Disney Channel series, “Sonny With a Chance”. The 18 year-old, who sought treatment for emotional and physical issues last year, confessed the decision to not return to the show was “nerve-racking”, but she has to move on.

“It made sense for me to go ahead and leave the show to focus on my music,” Demi tells PEOPLE in this week’s issue. “It’s kind of sad for me that a chapter of my life has ended but there couldn’t be a better time for me to move on.”

“I don’t think going back to Sonny would be healthy for my recovery,” says Demi. “Being in front of a camera would make me nervous.”

Disney respects the star’s decision and continues to fully support Demi, who now wants to focus on her music career. “Sonny With a Chance” will return to the screen as a sketch comedy called “So Random” in June 2011.

Demi tells all about her struggles with bulimia, cutting and depression in an interview for 20/20. “I’m really excited to see where everything goes,” Demi said of her future. Good luck, Demi!!

Logan Lerman is grabbing another movie lead.

The 19 year-old has signed on to star in The Only Living Boy in New York, directed by Seth Gordon (Horrible Bosses.)

The movie is described as “a twisted coming-of-age tale in which a young man (Lerman) learns that his overbearing father is having an affair. The son tries to stop it, only to become involved with the woman as well.”

Lerman will start filming this shortly after he finishes The Perks of Being a Wallflower, which just added The Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev to the cast with Emma Watson and Mae Whitman already on board.

The Percy Jackson star is also in the summer release The Three Musketeers and said this film adaptation is “badass.”

“It’s much more badass,” he said. “We definitely wanted to up the action, and give it a cooler spin. A well deserved cooler spin. This is nothing that anyone’s going to expect when thinking about the long line of D’Artagnans, and how much older they were than the character is.”

Victoria Justice hung out with some lucky gals at the BCBG store in Westfield Mall in Los Angeles, California on Monday, April 18th.

The teens were winners in the BCBG Max Azria Prep for Prom contest and they received a private, in store party hosted by the Victorious star.

The 18 year-old actress is also on the cover of Seventeen’s 2011 Prom issue.

Although she’s never been to a prom, she shared with the magazine what she thought prom meant to her.

“I think prom is just about enjoying yourself. You shouldn’t have to worry about guys at all,” Victoria said. “It should just be about hanging out with your friends and having the best time you’ve ever had.”

“And even if you don’t have the best time you’ve ever had, you’ll have plenty of good times in the future,” she continued. “I don’t think there has to be so much pressure put on this night. Just take it easy and have a positive attitude, and you’re going to have a great night either way.”

More photos of Victoria and the winners are below. Read more »
