Gossip Teen

It’s getting close to the return of The Vampire Diaries and we’ve got photos from the season 3 opener “The Birthday” and some details of the ep.

We know the show starts up with Elena’s 18th birthday (so she’s legal guardian to her younger brother Jeremy, now that Aunt Jenna is dead.) Stefan is on his Great Ripper Race with Klaus and Damon is brooding. Caroline and Tyler are getting closer – much closer. Jeremy still sees dead people, but now he does it at the Mystic Grill, working with Matt.

TVD returns Thursday, September 15th at 8pm ET.

Get the photos and official synopsis below.  Read more »

Sexy and strong, Aly Michalka, Ashley Tisdale and costars Heather Hemmens, Matt Barr and Robbie Jones are ready for the CW debut of their new show Hellcats. The competitive cheerleading show first hits the airwaves on September 8th at 9PM and is executive produced by another CW vet: Smallville’s Tom Welling.

In the new featurette, Ashley describes her show tone: “There’s this energetic feel, but the drama is there too.”

Michalka plays Marti Perkins, a pre-law student who loses her scholarship through college cutbacks and her mother’s carelessness, joins the cheerleading squad and becomes a thorn in (Tisdale’s character) Savannah Munroe’s side.

Aly says: “Friendships, heartbreaks and relationships. Parent issues. It touches on all of those.”

Valentine’s Day had the teen dream team pairing of Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift (Taylor Squared!) and now the movie’s sequel, New Year’s Eve, might just catch Bieber fever. That’s right girls, Justin Bieber’s name is being bandied about to make his movie debut in the upcoming rom-com with loads of stars. Director Garry Marshall is pretty clueless as to who this Bieber kid is:

“Already, they’re mentioning Justin Bieber,” he said about who will be cast. “I have no idea who that is, but I’m sure we’ll meet.”

Shooting will start in September, so someone should download a couple of songs for Marshall or you know, get the man an internet connection.

Teen superstar Miranda Cosgrove used her real life crush to inspire her writing process on her debut album Sparks Fly.

Miranda mentioned that the lead single off the album (“Kissin’ U”) and a few other tracks on Sparks Fly, were inspired by a real life crush!“The song’s about your first love or thinking you’re falling in love, so it’s just kind of a really happy, sweet song,” she said of “Kissin’ U.” “I did write it about a guy, and I’m afraid he might have heard it and he’s going to figure it out!”

The iCarly teen is promoting her latest music venture and will voice Margo, a character in the animated Despicable Me with Steve Carrell and Russell Brand out July 9th.

Miranda Cosgrove has a debut album coming out later this spring and Popstar! has the cover. Sparks Fly features the iCarly teen looking beautiful as ever.

Don’t forget the LIVE chat with Miranda on her facebook page Friday March 12th at 7pm (Get the details here)

Here is a short preview of her single “Kissing U” which you will hear in full at her chat on Friday.

Abigail Breslin has had a string of hit movies at a young age and can make you forget how young she really is (much like Dakota Fanning.) The Zombieland and Little Miss Sunshine star, who is only 13 years-old, is just like lots of other teen girls; having sleepovers with her cousin, loves the Jonas Brothers and is interested in all things Twilight. The actress caught up with Nylon magazine and shared her Twilight love:

“I’m a crazy, obsessed fan. I went to see the first one on opening day,” she says. “But I felt left out because everyone in the audience had Twilight T-shirts and I didn’t. So I have Twilight T-shirts now. And have you seen those Twilight water bottles? I have one of those.”

Currently Breslin is in New York City prepping for her debut on Broadway as Helen Keller in The Miracle Worker. Check out the February issue (with The Vampire Diaries cast on the cover) for more with Abigail.

Nick Jonas is doing lots of press to support his solo effort, Nick Jonas and the Administration. While he was in New York City, MTV caught up with NJ and asked him about the latest addition to the Jonas clan, sister-in-law Danielle.

“It’s amazing,” he said. “She’s here … with her whole family and they’re great. I’m so happy to have her [be] a part of our family. It’s kind of hard to believe I’ve got a sister-in-law and it’s wonderful.”

And while the brothers all have nicknames, the singer said hers is ‘just Dani.’
