Gossip Teen

Say it ain’t so!

After making the startling announcement that iCarly will be no more, Nickelodeon also released a statement that they are pulling the plug on their popular Tween hit, Victorious.

According to a spokesperson for Nick:

We are very proud of the show, its very talented cast, and our audience will continue to see many of them in upcoming new Nickelodeon projects.

The show’s creator Dan Schneider Tweeted his condolences to fans about the loss of their pals Tori, Cat, Jade and the rest of the Victorious gang.

I would love to have made more than 60 of Victorious, but that’s how it usually goes. I know that some of you are upset and angry – and while I feel terrible about that, I’m also flattered by it. But I ask that you please not be angry with Victoria, or Leon, Liz, Ariana, Avan or ANY of the Victorious cast members or staff. They all wanted Victorious to continue – so did I.

The final 15 episodes of Victorious will continue to air as scheduled, but after the season three finale, we will all have to say goodbye to the crew from Hollywood Arts High School for good.

Bummer city guys!

It’s not big deal but…

During Nickelodeon’s 25th annual Kids Choice Awards this Saturday night, First Lady Michele Obama will honor country music superstar Taylor Swift.

Oh wait, that’s actually a huge deal.  Congrats Tay-Tay!

According to sources, Swift will be presented with The Big Help Award  for her charitable efforts with Habitat for Humanity, the St. Jude Medical Center, the Red Cross and The Make-a-Wish Foundation.

Not a bad little resume if we do say so ourselves!

Hopefully The Big Help Award won’t be the only KCA trophy that T-Sweezy takes home Sunday night – The 22-year-old songstress is also nominated for Best Female Singer and Best Song {“Sparks Fly”).

The Kids’ Choice Awards will air Saturday night at 8 p.m. ET and will be hosted by Will Smith.

The hit Nickelodeon series Victorious began filming for its third season last week and stars Ariana Grande and Victoria Justice took to their Twitter accounts to share their excitement about the first table reads of the season.

Ariana, who recently reached 800,000 followers (go girl!) Tweeted,

Getting ready for our 1ST TABLE READ of the new season of Victorious!!! Wish I could take you guys with me in my pocket. So excited!!! Xo ♥

Victoria was quick to follow her co-star, Tweeting,

1st @Victorious table read of Season 3! I’m wearing a new feather earring w/ a rattlesnake bone attached 2 it

It may just be me, but doesn’t Victoria seem like she’s more excited about her accessories than the table read itself?

Looking forward to the new episodes gals!

The 2011 Angel Awards for Project Angel Food were held on Saturday night in Hollywood with two Nickelodeon stars supporting the cause: Jennette McCurdy and Ariana Grande.

McCurdy, 19, wore a short sleeveless dress with red, white and black patterns and Grande, 18, wore a blue floral patterned, cap-sleeve dress from Tibi.

The iCarly and Victorious cuties posed together at the celebration which included celebs Jennifer Love Hewitt, Pauley Perrette and Jessica Lange.

McCurdy and Grande posed with NCIS star Perrette for a pic she posted to twitter saying they were “Sweet Beautiful Girls.”

“@PauleyP it was so wonderful meeting you! You’re so warm and funny. We have your show on at our house all the time!” Jennette tweeted.

Project Angel Food delivers meals to people suffering from HIV/AIDS, cancer and life threatening illnesses. The healthy meals are prepared and delivered in the Los Angeles area and the organization serves more than 13,000 meals a week.

YAY!! Nickelodeon star, Miranda Cosgrove and the rest of the troupe, Jennette McCurdy, Noah Munck, Nathan Kress and Jerry Trainor, will return to our screens with the fifth season of iCarly in 2012.

“Our audience will be psyched to get more of what they love – new episodes of their favorite show, iCarly,” said Marjorie Cohn, Nickelodeon’s president of original programming and development.

iCarly has been a major success for Nick. Last week’s episode “iOMG” had more than 7.4 million views and was the most watched basic cable program. It also made the top of cable’s top kids’ telecast this year.

13 new episodes were ordered for the fifth season, which will begin production in 2012. The season will premiere later that year.

Congratulations, iCarly!!

Jennette McCurdy stepped out on the orange carpet for Nickelodeon’s 2011 Kids Choice Awards held at the USC Galen Center in Los Angeles on Saturday, April 2nd.

The 18 year-old was the winner of Favorite Sidekick in last night’s ceremony and took a second blimp with the cast of iCarly for Favorite TV Show.

McCurdy tweeted “NO WAY! Thank you guys so much!! Can’t believe it! 2 blimps! Fave tv show and fave tv sidekick!! Exclamation points to infinity. .”

AnnaSophia Robb hit the orange carpet for Nickelodeon’s 2011 Kids Choice Awards held at the USC Galen Center in Los Angeles on Saturday, April 2nd.

Robb wore a fantastic print dress that gave her a surfer-girl-direct-from-the-beach look. I guess she’s still channeling her character from her new movie Soul Surfer! Love the look.

AnnaSophia’s film opens Friday, April 8th. More photos of the 17 year-old from the blue carpet premiere for the movie are here.

Keke Palmer walked the orange carpet for Nickelodeon’s 2011 Kids Choice Awards held at the USC Galen Center in Los Angeles on Saturday, April 2nd.

The 17 year-old chose a one-shouldered sparkling black mini dress. Hawt!

She was a presenter at the ceremony and handed Miley Cyrus her blimp award for Favorite Movie Actress.

Palmer posted to her blog today:

“I had a great time yesterday @ KCA’s, so glad people liked my dress I could not believe I was a trending topic, that part was cool, thank you guys so much I felt like shouting WINNING !!! There was so much slime on stage I was so afraid I was gonna slide right off on my butt, or worse rip my dress that would have been a nightmare, but thank goodness it all turned out well….. Whew!”

Her dress was fabulous! More photos of Keke are under. Read more »
