Gossip Teen

Wait… what?

During recent interview with Interview Magazine (makes sense…) 19-year-old pop star Selena Gomez opened up about why she chose to star in the upcoming Harmony Korine release, Spring Breakers – a film about sex, drugs, partying and well, basically everything Selena isn’t!

I was getting kind of repetitive in terms of the roles I was picking, and I really wanted to do something that was completely different… It was a ‘mark’ thing for me — like, ‘This is what I want to be doing.’ I want to be taking myself seriously as an actress, and this was definitely a stretch. I mean, I’d never smoked a cigarette before in my entire life. It was really funny — they had to show me how to do it.

Fellow Spring Breaker and Pretty Little Liars star Ashely Benson echoed Selena’s sentiment and added that most of their fans shouldn’t even be allowed to see the movie!

Harmony wanted to break us all out of the good-girl mold… For Selena, Vanessa [Hudgens], and me, our audience is all in their teens or younger, so they’re not even going to be able to see this when it comes out — it’s not appropriate.

So, let us make sure we’re getting this straight.  Does doing “inappropriate” movies make you a serious actress these day?  Because we were under the impression that making movies that are actually good was the way to get yourself taken seriously in Hollywood.  But apparently running in a neon bikini for 90-minutes does the same thing.

Go figure.

After going their separate ways back in the beginning of this year, Emma Roberts and Glee star Chord Overstreet are giving love another shot!

According to a source close to the couple,

They are back together… Ultimately, they enjoy spending time together and they wanted to give it another shot. They make each other laugh and they are both very supportive of one another’s successes.

Isn’t that the A-List dream?

The happy couple was spotted hanging out together in Venice Beach, CA over the weekend and even attended an Easter service together at a Beverly Hills church on Sunday!

They are now taking things day by day and having fun… Whether it lasts, we’ll have to wait and see. They are not putting pressure on themselves to make it work.

Here’s hoping these two can make this romance last – Lord knows Chord doesn’t need another “extended hiatus” on his hands!

Another day, another celebrity breakup.  You’d think we’d have learned our lesson by now.  Note to self:  Do NOT buy A-list couples His and Her bath towels until you get an official wedding invitation.

According to sources, Scream 4 star Emma Roberts has officially ended her relationship with her boyfriend of nine months, Glee star Chord Overstreet.

Have we addressed the irony that a guy on Glee is named “Chord” yet?  If not, let’s do so now.  How weird is it that a guy on Glee is named “Chord”?  Okay, it’s now been addressed.

Insiders close to the couple report that there wasn’t any one straw that broke the camels back – the relationship just fizzled and eventually the pair decided to throw in the towel.

They’re both young kids, they had crushes on each other but the relationship ran its course… She isn’t and wasn’t looking for a serious thing… back to having fun now.

We can’t wait to see who Emma cozies up with next!

Shut the front door!

Rumor has it that High School Musical hottie Zac Efron is dating Scream 4 star Emma Roberts.  Sorry ladies, I guess he’s back off the market, yet again.

According to a source, the pair was seen “full on making out” at an after-hours Halloween party hosted by former N*SYNC-er Lance Bass on October 30th.

Zac and Emma both wound up at Lance’s party, and before the night was over, they were all over each other… They took each other’s numbers.

Wait…wait… did you hear that?  That’s the sound of teenage girls’ hearts breaking all over the world.

Way to crush their dreams, Emma.

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.

“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!”
