Gossip Teen

Here is actress Leighton Meester in between scenes in New York City as her Gossip Girl alter ego Blair Waldorf. The TV star had a couple of bodyguards/assistants surrounding her as she strolled the streets of NYC in a very 70s inspired dress and small dainty braids holding her hair back. Cute look.

Trace Cyrus is better known as Miley Cyrus’ older brother and I’m sure that can get annoying after a while. While I would guess he is proud to be her sibling, he would naturally want to make his own mark on the music world with his band, Metro Station. Giving an interview with MensStyle.com Cyrus gave a few provocative quotes that will help raise his own profile, especially what he says regarding The Jonas Brothers:

Q: But you idolize bands like Guns N’ Roses and Mötley Crüe, and you party in ways pop acts like the Jonas Brothers couldn’t.
A: I’m not trying to clean my image to make anyone happy. I could have gone the route of the Jonas Brothers. Those guys can’t live their lives freely. They have to put out this image that’s totally fake.

Q: Which Jonas Brother would be the toughest to take in a fight?
A: I don’t think any of them would be much trouble. I’d never lay a hand on Nick—I love that kid—but the other two better not get in my way.

While the JoBros may never own up publicly to that, I have to agree. They definetly seem to be boxed in by the image that has been crafted for them.

Cyrus also talks about the music scene today – how hard it is to get heard on the radio and how much more open European fans are to new bands (a sentiment echoed by Kings Of Leon recently as well.)

A brand new clip from the upcoming ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ DCOM (Disney Channel Original Movie) has surfaced. After Alex (Selena Gomez) has wished her parents never met, Justin (David Henrie) and Alex watch as their father, Jerry (David DeLuise) is flirting with other women. The WOWP movie airs on the Disney Channel Friday August 28th.

As many of us are learning, Jamie Campbell Bower is a prankster! The nude scene he referred to a few days ago to MTV.com was just an actor spicing up an otherwise dull interview process. No nude scene will be added to ‘New Moon’ as confirmed by director Chris Weitz. Weitz sent this email to MTV:

I would like to put everyone’s mind at rest and let them know that the
Volturi are not naked! Jamie (Campbell-Bower) has what you might call a
dry sense of humor and almost managed to convince me — which is why he’s
such a good actor. Anyway, be assured that, even though we do want the
look of the Volturi to be a bit of a surprise, they are always — as in
the book! — fully clothed.

best,
Chris Weitz

Well played Jamie, well played!

Is ‘New Moon’ getting seriously steamy or what? First Taylor Lautner got crazy hot muscles for his part as Jacob, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart togetherness rumors are rampant and now there is a nude scene! Deviating totally from the book, Jamie Campbell Bower says that a scene has been added with himself, Michael Sheen and Christopher Heyerdahl (Caius, Marcus and Aro Volturi) sitting in a bathhouse, nude.

Peter Facinelli’s character, Carlisle Cullen, used to hang out with the Volturi back in the day, so the scene shows Carlisle meeting up with Aro, Caius and Marcus, only to find them relaxing in a bathhouse.

“It’s a full-body shot, and then Peter comes in, and it all gets a bit awkward,” Jamie explains. “[Carlisle] is clothed completely. They’re bathing in sort of a Roman bath kind of thing.”

Well that will certainly get everyone’s attention!

Update! Jokester Jamie was just joshing. No Full Monty in New Moon.

As we told you earlier in the week, Rumer Willis will be guest starring as a lesbian on ’90210′  this fall and now AnnaLynne McCord wants in on the girl-on-girl scenes.

“This is what I foresee,” she said. “Naomi gets drunk, and she gets a little crazy. Liam’s watching. Naomi wants to experiment. And then a little lip-on-lip action with Rumer Willis can’t hurt anybody, right?

“How fabulous would that be,” she continued. “They totally need to make it happen!”

Well, it will certainly grab more headlines. This is great news for the CW network and will help ’90210′ in the ratings this fall.

Getting hit with a mild case of swine flu, Harry Potter actor Rupert Grint has had to postpone working on the latest film while he recovers. Scenes for the seventh and final chapter of the JK Rowling book, The Deathly Hallows, that did not involve Grint’s Ron Weasley character were shot so the movie was not interrupted. The actor is no longer contagious and will appear for the press tour and premieres as the sixth film – Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince – is opening world wide in the coming weeks.

Ok, I don’t usually delve into this too much, but did Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson just become official? The pair has been hounded by rumours for months regarding their relationship status and now Stewart’s imdb.com bio page has been changed listing Pattinson as her boyfriend:

“She was in a relationship with actor Michael Angarano for two years. [...]

Has met her boyfriend Robert Pattinson on the set of their movie, “Twilight” (2008/I).”

Ted Casablanca of E!Online has been reporting for months that the twosome have been under the radar even though Stewart continues to see actor Michael Angarano publicly and he is currently with her in Italy while Pattinson and Stewart film the dramatic reunion scene of Bella & Edward. (Casablanca is very often correct.)

Could someone have hacked her page? Possibly.

I do believe everyone has the right to a private life and it’s why I rarely comment on it, but I hope for all involved, that this isn’t an official announcement about the status of their relationship. Things happen and people move on but what a lousy way to treat Angarano if true. 

The pictures showing the onscreen chemistry between the two, are from GossipGirls.com and come from the ‘New Moon’ set in Montepulciano, Italy.

The UK film set for the latest Harry Potter series is open again after a serious injury to actor Daniel Radcliffe’s stunt double, David Holmes. Holmes was participating in a flying scene with an explosion when something went wrong and he fell, badly hurting his back, requiring spinal surgery.

The film set at the British studio was closed following the shocking accident, with the U.K.’s Health and Safety Executive launching an investigation into the incident. However the crew are now back at work, according to British newspaper the Daily Mirror.

No word as to what exactly went wrong but production seems to be cleared to forge ahead on the seventh and final HP movie. Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, which will be filmed at one time, and split into 2 movies. The principal actors (Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson) were not on set, and do not begin filming until later this month. After his operation, Holmes, 25, is said to have vowed to not let this accident set back his career.

Check out the trailer for the 6th movie Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince, out this summer:

Keeping themselves warm is challenging in NYC at this time of the year, but on again off again twosome Blake Lively and Penn Badgley looked cozy in warm jackets in between filming scenes for an upcoming Gossip Girl episode. They were in the Big Apple shooting for a episode to air sometime in February.
