Yes, we know that Ashlee Simpson’s a redhead now, but it’s also a hard fact that blondes have more fun. And it’s also a fact that Ashlee pretty much rolls out of bed looking this hot.

Check out our exclusive Ashlee Simpson photos, and if you slept on our one-on-one interview with her, wake up and read it now.

While Hannah Montana fans are whipping themselves into a feeding frenzy over anything to do with the mega-popular Disney Channel franchise — there have practically been knock-down, drag-out fights over concert tickets, and a movie, which opens tomorrow, is setting presale records across the country — Miley Cyrus is clearly itching to shed her girl-next-door image. She’s gotten a makeover — darkening her hair, straightening her teeth and trading jeans and T-shirts for curve-hugging ensembles. But the red carpet isn’t the only place Billy Ray Cyrus‘ daughter’s been showing some skin…

Some (more) rather risqué pics of Miley have been making the rounds. But don’t get too excited … they’re PG-13 at best. Still … by following in the footsteps of camera crazed celebs like Vanessa Hudgens and Lindsay Lohan, the girl’s obviously hoping to make herself a household name — without pissing off daddy, of course. Maybe she’s hoping to appease her pops for a little while longer by officially tweaking her name to Miley Ray Cyrus, proving she’s still daddy’s little girl … at least until she turns 18.

Sky-high penthouses, fancy rooftop pools, ski masks, leather corsets, sensual massages, so-loud-the-neighbors-can-hear-’em “love sounds,” robbery, and food metaphors for sex. No, that’s not what R. Kelly had for breakfast, but you’re close.

Watch Timbaland’s new video, “Scream,” starring the hot-to-def Keri Hilson and a very glossy Nicole Scherzinger.

Blurred, melancholy photo and Super-8 montages of broken glass, sad gravestones and fallen leaves. It feels a little like the first verse of Warrant’s “Heaven Isn’t Too Far Away,” but with better hair and nice peacoats. Watch The Click Five’s latest video, “Empty.” (We detect slight undertones of OneRepublic’s “Stop and Stare,” by the way.)

Um, ZOMG. Check out Rihanna looking like a decadent dairy dream in her new “Got Milk” ad. Somehow, girl can make even grocery store fare look sexy, and while we appreciate it, we sorta feel dirty at the same time. In an awesome, blissful way. And there’s no way that’s some kiddie-stuff skim either. That’s like some full-on, 18-and-over, super-rich dairy creamer. Healthy bones indeed.

More on the Rihanna tip: check out her latest video, “Don’t Stop the Music.”

No disrespect to the rest of the hard-working guys of Jimmy Eat World, but we’d really like to have lunch with Jim Adkins. Not in a sexual way. (You know, because lunch can be sexual.) Not in a creepy, stalkery way. Just like, we’d maybe like to go to Subway or something with him, because he seems like the chillest, most non-A-hole-ish guy in alt-rock.

These guys have been going at it for over a decade, modestly putting out one tight power-punk album after another. And you never see these guys falling down drunk outside of Area or Stereo or hear about them making out with people who have famous sex tapes. And you know — that has its time and place, but it’s just not with JEW.

So, teen skate sensation Ryan Sheckler is all kindsa bummed because, as of this week’s episode, he’s having a harder time balancing Sheckler enterprises than he is balancing on his board. With three businesses, a new distribution deal and two weeks away from his lady, it gets hard out there for a 17-year-old pimp! Too many meetings, not enough time to chill.

We think he should start listening to Rogue Wave. If he watches his own show, then he heard their song “Lake Michigan” last night when he made his long-awaited (at least for his libido) reunion with Kayla.

Leona Lewis, who won the third installment of England’s The X Factor in December 2006, has broken and sold more records than some of her American Idol counterparts combined — her debut single was downloaded 50,000 times in just 30 minutes, which helped make her the fastest-selling female artist ever; her debut album, Spirit, became the fastest-selling debut in the UK (outselling the Spice Girls’ Greatest Hits album four to one). And by the end of 2007, the album was certified 5x platinum in the UK.

The lovely, talented, tall and gracious Sara Bareilles — she of “Love Song” fame — stopped by 1515 yesterday. We sat down and talked about touring with Maroon 5, her insatiable appetite for pizza, and her unabashed adoration of TV’s Dorothy Zbornak. Read on, won’t you?

Buzzworthy: Tell us about shooting your “Love Song” video? Where’d the idea come from?

Sara Bareilles: I got a treatment from the director, Josh Forbes, who was great, and I knew as soon as I read it. I was like ‘This is it! This is the video!’ There was a lot of green screen and post-production, so it was cool to use a lot of your imagination and just get lost in the music because that’s all you have. It happened all in one day, so it was very fast-paced. There was a lot to do and they had a ton of work to do after that. But it was really fun.

BW: How was touring with Maroon 5 and Paolo Nutini?

SB: Well, Maroon 5 definitely pranked me on my last night out with them. They ran on stage in their underwear during my last song! They just came on and they. scared. the. s— out of me. I didn’t know what was happening I just saw the crowd erupt in applause. But touring with them was a great experience. I’ve known them a long time. They’ve always been like big brothers. They’re really wonderful and supportive, always kinda rooting for me and my bandmates. And Paolo was such a sweetheart. We really got along with him and his crew well. They’ve got big hearts.

BW: Would you ever do an official collaboration with any of them? Maybe with Adam Levine?

SB: Right now I’m so focused on trying to create a solid image of who I am in the music industry and trying to create that personal connection with who I am and what I’m saying, so I don’t feel ready for a collaboration yet. But there are so many amazing people. I’d love to get to that point. There’s a lot of female artists I’m inspired by, like Feist and KT Tunstall.

Yay! Gwen Stefani is almost definitely pregnant with her second child! She and Gavin are both so beauteous that they should have other people’s babies for them. And Gwen is far and away one of our favorite pregnant famous people ever (Christina Aguilera is a close second, followed by Isla Fischer and Heidi Klum. Tied for last place: super-annoying Brooke Burke, who gets pregnant every five or six minutes, and Angelina Jolie, whose pregnant-and-skinny frame makes her look like a stick figure that swallowed a beach ball), so we look forward to many months of her in the raddest maternity outfits ever. Animal prints. LOTS of animal prints.

The only downside — does this mean we’re gonna have to wait EVEN LONGER for that next No Doubt album? Boo.
