The Jonas Brothers have teamed up with Allstate Insurance to remind you not to text while driving. The informational campaign ‘Xthe Txt’ is a fun way to reinforce the message that distracted driving is a terrible danger to teens and young adults and many people are injured and killed each year because of it. Nick, Joe and Kevin advise having a designated texter (DSGN8D TXTR) to handle messages instead of the one behind the wheel.

Make the roadways safer and take the pledge. Go to Allstate’sr Facebook page to find out how.

Abigail Breslin plays a young singer/songwriter in her new film Janie Jones. In the movie, Breslin’s Janie is trying to connect with her musician father (who didn’t know she existed) while her mother enters rehab.

The 14 year-old actress really liked playing Janie as she even got to drive for the film (she was only 13 at the time) and scared one of the assistants! Breslin said:

“I actually drove in the parking lot and it was awesome, “she said. “I did the actual stunt thing where I almost hit a car. Everybody was fearful those 2 days. We had this one production assistant, Ben, who was in the back seat while I was driving. I could tell he was so afraid and thinking ‘Why did they put me in the car with this lunatic?’ ”

But the illicit driving experience was every kid’s dream.

“It was fun,” says Breslin “My brothers (Spencer, age 18 and Ryan, 25) got their licenses both of them like 3 months ago. I’m like ‘I’m more experienced than you guys are.’”

Breslin did her own singing for the part and while she was nervous – she says she had lots of fun experiencing something new.

Getting some practice time in as you learn to drive is difficult if you are as well known as Daniel Radcliffe. Besides being really busy with filming and promotional obligations, actors are usually driven to and from sets so the 20 year-old Harry Potter actor tried to better his driving skills by leaving London and heading to the southern coastal town of Poole for lessons.

The congenial actor also caused a bit of a stir when he popped into a wedding reception at the hotel he stayed at.

Musician Stuart Darling, 24, who performed at the wedding, said: “He seemed very happy and comfortable having photos taken and signing autographs. He was a thoroughly nice chap.

“He said he was down from London taking some driving lessons where it was quieter, and seeing a friend.

“I presume he was on his own – I didn’t see anyone with him. He was probably a bit lonely and came out to socialize”

The Equus star appeared to enjoy himself and spent time dancing with the bride and bridesmaids until 1:30am.

That really is cute. How can you not love Daniel?

Ok well, technically he is leaving the gym. Actor Shia LaBeouf is leaving the Ultra Body Gym after a workout and he looks so dang yummy – in a dirty boy kinda way. Thank goodness he has learned his lesson with the paparazzi following him and is not driving with a suspended license.
