Ashley Tisdale's been working on her comedy acting chops, guys. She recently paired up with actress Leah Remini for a Funny Or Die video, poking fun at TLC's "Toddlers & Tiaras" series, and it's hilar! If you’ve been living under a rock never heard of the real version of the show, TLC follows mother-daughter duos through some craaaaazy behind-the-scenes dramz of young girls fighting for very important pageant crowns. And it's totally addicting.

In “Toddlers & Tiaras: Where Are They Now?" Tisdale plays the 25-year-old version of Mackenzie, a memorable, real-life toddler once featured on the TLC show, while Remini plays her clueless stage mom. The "He Said She Said" singer portrays the still-immature Mackenzie decked out in adult-size pageant garb, a pacifier and some seriously coiffed locks. Ash pulls off tantrums and parades on stage with other actual toddler contestants like a pro -- girl's even got the baby talk down to a science. It's, uh, kinda creepy.

Forget cheerleader dramas, people. Someone needs to get Ashley Tisdale on a comedy skit show, STAT. Between her snooty "High School Musical" character and this newfound big baby persona, girl is racking up some serious SNL potential.

Dearest Zac Efron,

We just heard the horrible news about you and Vanessa Hudgens breaking up, and we would just like to offer our beautiful, freshly showered shoulder for you to cry on. You guys had a good, long run. Like, really long. Like, since the "High School Musical" days. They don't even make those movies anymore! Also, some might even call the run you guys had too long. In fact, many might call it that. I know I would.

But that's neither here nor there. All good things must come to an end, and what we're going to focus on now is the fact that you, Zac Efron, are A SINGLE MAN. (One more time for the ladies: ZAC EFRON IS A SINGLE MAN.) Even though you might be feeling sad, this is the time, Zac! The world is your oyster! Do you like oysters? Some say they're an aphrodisiac. We can get some sometime, like, if you're not busy...

Sorry, I got off track. What I'm trying to say is there are plenty of fish in the sea! Speaking of, there's this adorable little spot I know that has the best tilapia...

OK, in all seriousness, you and Vanessa Hudgens were a lovely couple, but this is the moment all of America has been waiting for! All of America, me, everyone at Buzzworthy HQ, and I think even my mom. So how about this--you take the night off, cry over a bowl of cookie dough ice cream and then call us in the morning for this ice-skating thing we have planned. No, it's a group thing! Not like, a date or anything...

Until then, I'll just be sitting here, drinking my coffee, printing out photos of you and Vanessa and gluing my face over hers.

XOXO,

Every Legally Aged Woman in America (But mostly me!)

Justin Bieber's merchandising empire is bigger than you can possibly imagine. Just have a look. Justin Bieber water bottles, Justin Bieber silver plated charm bracelets, Justin Bieber lunch boxes. And with the edition of the Justin Bieber dolls. Dude sells a lot of stuff! It seems like there's no end to the ways in which J.B. can, in the immortal words of the Wu-Tang Clan's GZA, "diversify his bonds."

But maybe there should be an end? Maybe there shouldn't be an endless stream of Bieber-endorsed products baring the kid's likeness. Here are 5 Bieber products we don't want to see.

1. Justin Bieber Hand Sanitizer
In these crazy, plague-filled days, everybody needs a little hand sanitizer. But, honestly, it's probably not a good look for Bieber to associate himself with disinfecting, like, anything. "High School Musical" tried this. It didn't work.

2. Justin Bieber Battery-Powered Lollipops
Biebs is reportedly endorsing a Haribo candy. Let's just hope it's not mechanized.

3. Justin Bieber Wigs
These will likely be big at Halloween. Some folks have already gotten the jump on manufacturing them. But Justin Bieber's hair is his trademark, his signature. He shouldn't decrease its value by selling it off!

4. Justin Bieber Energy Drink
We'd all like to have the energy it took for Justin to perform his all-running, all-singing, all-dancing medley at the 2010 MTV VMAs. But J.B.'s audience is, largely, a younger one, and they should probably stick to the staples like milk or whatever else young people guzzle these days.

5. Justin Bieber Bibs
Like we said, Justin Bieber's fans tend to skew young, but not that young. If you're a full-fledged Bieber-fever-having fan, you should probably be able to chew with your mouth closed. Leave the baby bib game to Rod Stewart.

What other kinds of merch should Justin Bieber stay away from? Let us know in the comments!

+ Before she became the boundary-pushing, girl-jail-dwelling pop icon we know and love, Lady Gaga was just your run-of-the-mill struggling artist. Turns out the young Lady made ends meet by recording vocals for two songs featured on a children's audiobook called "Portal In The Park." (Idolator)

+ Taio Cruz has nothing but good things to say about his duet partner, Ke$ha. The two collaborated on the song, "Awesome," and while the "Tik Tok" singer might be better known for her look and antics than her voice, according to Cruz, "Her voice was awesome. It had this -- I hope she won't mind me saying this, but her voice has this kind of yodely quality to it, the way that she does things and the way that she ends words. I just loved that quality about it." (MTV News)

You already know that Drew Seeley not only wrote some of the songs on the High School Musical soundtrack (and earned an Emmy nomination for "Getcha Head In The Game") but was also Zac Efron's singing voice (not in a ventriloquist way though). You also know that Drew Seeley starred with Selena Gomez in Another Cinderella Story, which is where "New Classic" comes in! And no, "New Classic" isn't about sneakers. It's about Selena.

So, here are five things I love about Drew Seeley's "New Classic" video:

1.) Drew references "PYT," which is an AMAZING old-school Michael Jackson song! KNOW this!

2.) Once the chorus kicks in, you can almost sing Usher's "Yeah!" (yeah!) on top of it, which is cool.

3.) Drew kind of looks like a young Robbie Williams. Well, doesn't he?

4.) Selena uses public transportation in the video. SO enviro-friendly and green, like her friend Miley!

5.) The "New Classic" video looks like it cost next to nothing to make but instead focuses on Drew's vocal chops instead of over-the-top effects. And HELLO! We're in a hardcore RECESSION, people. Everyone should take a tip from Drew Seeley and shoot on a shoestring. And by "everyone," I mean Kanye West.

Watch Drew in action in "New Classic."

If those 3OH!3 boys have anything, it's class. Class out the ass. In the latest chapter of 3OH!3's much-asterisked European saga, we follow them to Germany, where we encounter cold-shouldered truckers, casual classical quartets, heroic beer pong tourneys and formidable babes (more photos after the jump). Now it's time do what 3OH!3 do in a pinch: kick back, relax and let the handsome do the talking. Boys?

So, we headed to Munich the other day. We chilled at a rest stop for a while eating Burger King and trying to pick up truckers. We failed. Whatever. We feel like we're good looking dudes and we can get it right another time, another rest stop. We got to our hotel and enjoyed a delightful little glass of rouge, whilst listening to the lovely quartet and piano playing Bach in the restaurant, no big deal.

The next day I woke up, got showered and headed into town on foot. It seems like Germany is really clean. People here are tall and handsome. The babes seem like they would rock the s*** out of pigtails. Is that bad that I would like to see the babes in pigtails out here? Nah. Went back to the hotel and made all sorts of beats on my computer. It was hot.

The show in Munich was rad -- It was in this big complex of beer and food and all things that are good. We slammed around as usual and a lot of kids were stoked. After the show I was gonna throw strawberries out our dressing room window at people waiting for Katy outside, but I got scared of Katy's manager and p****ed out like a little b*tch. I'm such a b*tch. I can't even be a bad boy. I was gonna beam some poor fan in the dome and it would have been great, but at the instant I was gonna chuck it at that poor head, I felt all bad for those people and got it in my mind that it would be a s***ty thing to do. What kind of f***ing musician am I? I need to be way more of a BAD BOY.

We drove to Frankfurt this morning. Watched Vanilla Sky on the way. Not a huge fan of Penelope Cruz usually but she is f***ing hot in that movie, man. I would love to just hold her a little bit. Maybe make out for a while who knows?

Here we are juicing before the set here in Frankfurt, trying to get some serious reps in before the show to get nice and swoll-up, you know what I mean. I'm probably yelling something along the lines of "get the f*** up Sean, you little f***ing p***y get that last set in b*tch" at Sean right there. Pretty standard before show material. We preformed in front of a velvet curtain tonight, with spotlights on us. A really nice German fan came up and we talked about it, and he said that it looked a bit High School Musical. I told him that is exactly the f***ing thing that we are going for!

The crowd was great -- maybe the best of the whole tour -- rowdy and ready to party. There were a bunch of Americans who had seen us on Warped. It was rad to meet them.

That's our deal. Tomorrow we are going to be playing beer pong at our merch table in Hamburg. Apparently the other merch people have been getting pissy over the "mess" that is being left at the merch table. We are retaliating by playing a 64-cup beer pong challenge all f***ing night, except for the 30 minutes when we will take the stage. Hamburg will never even f***ing know what hit it.
