Gossip Teen

Foam (Fashion Ocean Art Music) magazine has the ever beautiful Emma Roberts covering the August/September issue. The actress, who is contemplating college at Sarah Lawrence or NYU next year, gave up some deets about her love of author Joan Didion, her characters in the upcoming movies Twelve and It’s Kind of a Funny Story, and how much she loves Los Angeles.

Author, author: “If I could be anyone in the world for a day, I’d want to be Joan Didion. I think she is the most amazing female writer of all time. She is so original.”

On her character Molly, in the upcoming film Twelve: “I’m the moral compass of the movie. My character is the metaphor for everything that’s good, while everyone else is doing all this messed-up stuff. ”

Not so funny story of It’s Kind of a Funny Story: “It’s a comedy, but it’s really dark. (Roberts plays a teen who cuts her own face.) The cuts looked really real and creepy… It was something about her that was personal. It was there on her face but you never really talked about it, which was cool.”

Los Angeles is where her heart is: “I love the mix of being up in the hills like your in the middle of nowhere and then being down by the beach. There are so many different areas in LA that you get the best of everything. You live somewhere long enough you have your favorite spots. I’ve toyed with the idea of moving to New York but I have my spots here and it’s hard to give up your spots. “

Lots of Emma goodness in this issue. Foam is a great magazine (the mag’s twitter is here) and this is a nice interview with Roberts.
Emma is currently working on Scream 4 with Hayden Panettiere and Adam Brody.

Emma Roberts is featured in Allure magazine’s Faces for March 2010. Check out the video for a behind the scenes look at the photo shoot and hear Emma talk about her role in the movie Valentine’s Day.

Emma Roberts has joined the deleted Twitter account ranks along with teen celeb Miley Cyrus. Roberts said last week she was thinking about getting rid of the account because of “hackers.”

“i will be deleting my twitter today because EVERYDAY someone tries to hack on reset my password. Sorry to everyone who doesnt do that,” the 18-year-old said on her account. Later, feeling the fury from her followers, she replied the following:“Okay everyone making me feel really guilty so I’m not gonna delete my twitter … for now. But please whoever it is STOP trying to get on!”

It does appear Emma’s twitter is no longer active – or someone did get in and hack it. Too bad for the people who do enjoy keeping up with their favorite stars. Unfortunately more people will have to go this route as it becomes a burden because others don’t play nice.

Fresh faced teen Emma Roberts is the latest celebrity to be added to the Neutrogena family of models. The Hotel for Dogs star is ready to star in print and tv spots promoting the product lines.

“I’m so excited to enter this new chapter in my life. To be a part of a brand that I have always loved and believed in is a once in a lifetime opportunity,” says Emma. “It’s important to me to be associated with Neutrogena because they instill confidence and beauty in young women.”

Roberts joins lots of Hollywood stars who shill for Neutrogena, including Hayden Panettiere, Jennifer Garner, Vanessa Hudgens and Natasha McElhorne.

Hotel for Dogs star Emma Roberts is hoping to be accepted into college for fall. She has just sent out her applications and like so many other teens, is waiting to hear if she is going to the school of her choice.

“I only applied to three schools because I figure if I don’t get into my top choice, I’ll defer and apply again. I want to study photography, literature and writing.”

She is also struggling to get her driver’s license right now as she failed her test and let her permit expire. Happens to lots of us Emma! Hopefully she gets in to the college she wants and gets that license!

With her movie Hotel for Dogs, that opened last weekend, actress Emma Roberts is bound to get lots of questions about the pets in her life. Yes, she does have a dog and her long haired chihuahua, Twiggy, is one very spoiled little pup.

“My dog has a dog bed in every room in the house,” she tells me [writer Valerie Nome]. “I have little dog beds everywhere. She’s really cute. My sister goes and pushes her around wherever in her baby doll stroller. My sister’s 7, so she loves playing with the dog.”

Jake T. Austin co-stars with Roberts in the movie and has two dogs, Bogey and Beju, who are also pampered canines.

“My dad owns a restaurant, so we joke that my dogs eat like kings and queens,” the Wizards of Waverly Place star, 14, tells me. “He’ll take home spare filet mignon, and my dogs will eat that. They eat and live like kings. We have a huge property and a really nice house. I don’t think they realize how lucky they are.”

Austin also mentions that his WoWP buddy, Selena Gomez has learned to surf quite quickly as he’s been teaching her, but David Henrie is not as fast picking up the sport.

Oh the things you have to go thru just to have your picture taken at a movie premiere! Victoria Justice shared that she almost stepped in dog pee at the Hotel for Dogs event and she didn’t even realize what it was.

“They had a bunch of different dogs that people could pose with…I almost stepped into a giant pile of what I thought was lemonade…it was a giant puddle of St. Bernard pee!”

The Spectacular!  star offered up her embarassing moment on her offical message board. Don’t forget to check out her Nickelodeon movie Monday February 16th at 8pm (EST)

With her new film Hotel for Dogs aimed at a younger audience, Emma Roberts is experiencing that in-between stage lots of actors and actresses face: do you continue with teen oriented films for as long as you can, or do you make the break for it and try to move into more grown-up themed films?

Roberts recently finished shooting the independent film “The Winning Season” from writer-director James Strouse (“Grace Is Gone”). It’s the kind of role that suggests a transition away from tween material is in the works. “It’s happened naturally, which is what I wanted. I could definitely play younger and I could definitely play older, which is what’s good about being 17,” Roberts said.

The young actress – last year picked by Vanity Fair among “Hollywood’s New Wave” – has been home-schooled her entire life. (“I’ve only been to high school in a movie,” she says.) She’s now, though, applying to colleges, where she hopes to study literature. She says that while she wouldn’t be able to turn down a “great project” if it came along, she does want to focus on college.

I really like Emma and can’t wait to see what she does next.

Hotel for Dogs opens Friday january 16th.
