1.) It seems like Lil Wayne is the go-to rapper for remixes, and Joe Jonas is in on the trend! The unlikely pair announced a major collab on Joe's upcoming single, "It Means The World To Me." (Pop Crush)
2.) Gwen Stefani announced the launch of the Harajuku Mini collection for Target -- a Japanese street style clothing line for babies and kids. There are tutus and patent-leather Mary Janes. Please don't judge us if we try to squeeze into a pair. (MTV Style)
3.) President Obama knows how to throw some awesome house parties. First he invited rapper Common to the White House a few months ago, and then asked B.o.B to perform at a recent benefit. How do we get on that Evite list? (Rap-Up)
4.) Happy Birthday, Hilary Duff! In honor of the mom-to-be's big day, here's a photo flashback. Warning: Tears will be shed! Lizzie McGuire grew up way too fast! (Huffington Post)
5.) Those making the resolution to see the star-studded "New Year's Eve" movie (including hunky Zac Efron and adorbz Lea Michele) can hold over that excitement with the film's recently released trailer. (Celebuzz)
6.) Billboard announces their "21 Under 21: Music's Hottest Minors of 2011" list. Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus make the cut. We'd say "Cheers," but it feels a little inappropriate seeing that the majority of them can't even get into a bar. (Billboard)
7.) Jennifer Hudson's weight-loss experience inspired the opening of her own Weight Watchers Center in Chicago. Let's all celebrate with a zero-point pudding cup! (TheYBF)
8.) In a recent interview, Beyoncé confesses that she sometimes wishes she wasn't a star. While we understand the frustrations that probably come with the job, it breaks our heart to imagine the world without "Single Ladies." What would bachelorettes dance to at weddings?! (That Grape Juice)
9.) We can't decide if Robert Pattinson should keep his beard or go smooth. We CAN decide that he looks HOT either way. (Us Magazine)
10.) There are times we ask ourselves why we can't remember important math equations or state capitals. It's likely because our brains are full of more useful things, like the 20 most painfully unforgettable theme songs ever made. Thanks, TV. (BuzzFeed)

If you watch "Glee," you know the cast rocks some pretty sweet outfits. (Lea Michele STAYS in Marc Jacobs!) Back when we were in high school in 1801 the late '90s, the closest anybody got to couture was platform flip-flops and belly button rings. If you saw a dude wearing a label that wasn't Aéropostale or Abercrombie & Fitch (nothing says "I nailed my SATs" quite like a baggy hoodie with one bland horizontal line across the chest), that was almost considered progressive.
Fast-forward about 10 years, and the kids at fictional McKinley High in Ohio are each a fashion plate in their own right. Chris Colfer may get the best duds as Kurt, but the ladies of "Glee" don't look so bad on a magazine cover, either. Lea Michele, Amber Riley and Dianna Agron are nothing less than teenage dreams (hey-o!) on the May 2011 cover of Marie Claire, each outfitted in shades of blue that leave their faces all glowing with youthful abandon and the ire of jealous girls everywhere.
Meanwhile, in going solo on her own cover, Lea Michele's fierce pose reminds us why we can't wait for the New Directions to return from repeats already! Only one issue with Marie Claire's "Glee" covers, though-- where the EFF are Naya Rivera and Heather Morris??

Hey, Darren Criss! Remember when you were added to the "Glee" cast but not promised a role as a recurring regular until Gleeks immediately took to you because your charisma both on screen and off was undeniable, aside from those jet black curls and piercing eyes that made you look like a younger (arguably hotter, some would say) Adrian Grenier? Yeah, we remember that. And then your vocal contribution to the a cappella version of "Teenage Dream" shattered the record for "Glee" music on iTunes? Nice job (and we're loving your duet with Lea Michele on "Don't You Want Me," BTW).
Well, from the look of this candid photo, you were about 10 blocks south of MTV headquarters in Times Square yesterday. We've lived here for a while, so we're betting (from the Macy's awning) that you were in Herald Square, dressed a tad light for the blustery weather, but that's OK, because less is more with you, you handsome devil!
Listen, next time you're in the neighborhood, drop us a note, would ya? We'd be happy to show you around the Buzzworthy offices, maybe grab a cup of free coffee or just let us stare into your eyes as you serenade us softly on the guitar. If you feel like it. No pressure. OMG YOU'RE ADORABLE.

Why oh why do I suddenly feel compelled to use only words like "vivacious" and "vibrant" to describe Lea Michele's look on the March 2011 cover of Cosmopolitan? Oh, I don't know, maybe because I haven't seen a V that deep since Jennifer Lopez's legendary green Versace dress that spun the Earth off its axis at the 2000 Grammys.
That is a lot of sternum on parade. If that top were any lower, the world would be Lea's collective gynecologist.
The beauty part she's got down. Lea's hair and makeup are "Glee"-fully perfect. The cute striped, high-waisted skirt is chipper and cheery, almost like Rachel Berry herself. If that plunging V-neck were just a little narrower and her entire inner-boob weren't showing, the effect would be a lot more tasteful. So Lea? We know it's Cosmo, and they're all about a look I like to refer to as "The Silver Platter" (because you're basically offering ALL OF YOUR ASSETS up on a tray.) But there's a time and a place for that much chest to be shown, and it usually involves several shots of Goldschläger. Not that we've done that or anything.
We hope Lea Michele keeps her assets a bit more under wraps when she sings "America The Beautiful" at the Super Bowl next month.

We need to discuss EVERYTHING about Lea Michele's Golden Globes gown. It's the perfect mix of prissy-pretty! Who doesn't want to see a goody-goody in a pink gown at an awards gala? Even better? IT'S SO RUFFLY. It almost feels like the "Glee" star's one-shouldered Oscar de la Renta Golden Globes gown was worn with a knowing wink at her princessy TV persona.
We adore its structured ruffles (actually, we've NEVER met a ruffle we didn't like), we love that she went there in taffeta, and we're into the mermaid length. It's a bit prom-ish, but her adorably rumpled chignon keeps it from being too precious. We're actually hereby renaming the entire look Taffeta Adrenaline. In fact, throw some crystals on that bodice and it's a total Peaches n' Cream Barbie moment.
The "Glee" star took a bit of a risk with this Pepto Bismol-hued fancy frock, but we think she pulled it off with utter elegance. Pink dresses were a definite trend at the 2011 Golden Globes. Julianne Moore and Megan Fox also rocked gowns in varying shades of the feminine hue. And did you see Emma Stone's peachy perfection? Claire Danes. LOVES. LOVES the pink.
+ Tell us: What did you think of Lea Michele's Golden Globes dress? Yay or nay?

Holy anti-aging cream, Batman. Our boy Justin Bieber, seen above at the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night, sure isn't getting any older. At all. Actually, based on the baby-faced singer's utterly baby-like face in the above photo, we're starting to suspect this might be a curious case of Benjamin Bieber.
Like, look at Justin Bieber's face! It is positively mesmerizing. Why is his cheek shining like a newborn baby? Is he getting younger? Why doesn't he have some annoying peach fuzz mustache or awkward teenage acne? We need answers.
Incredible complexion aside, Bieber's stern expression in the above picture was kind of his look for the evening. He appeared at the Golden Globes as a presenter, handing out the award for Best Animated Film with actress Hailee Steinfeld, star of "True Grit." We hope the interaction with the Biebs went better for Steinfeld than her bungled encounter with "Glee"'s Lea Michele, but honestly, these two did not have much chemistry.
Maybe Justin was a little salty that he was presenting an award for a cartoon, when his personal taste obviously trends toward Chuck Norris flicks. Somehow, we don't see this self-proclaimed badass settling in with a DVD of "Toy Story 3" at the end of the night.

Hey, ya'll! Welcome back to your weekly internet road map. Buckle up, 'cause we've got 10 stops to make before Christmas.
1.) Leighton Meester is the latest actress to get her twang on for the upcoming drama "Country Song," following in the still-fresh bootprints of Gwyneth Paltrow. We have no choice but to pit them against each other and choose a winner. I vote Leigh all the way. Click the links below to see performances by each and then weigh in with your pick in the comments. (Idolator, Just Jared)
2.) Not sick of year-end lists yet? Me neither. Here's a good one: Spinner has crowned Swedish pop pixie Robyn's "Dancing On My Own" the top pop song of 2010. I like this list because they managed to find room for Willow Smith's "Whip My Hair" at a very respectable No. 7. (Spinner)
3.) Despite recent evidence to the contrary, the annual Kardashian Christmas card wasn't always so kreepy! Kim shared a gallery of the family's seasons greetings from years past, featuring some adorably old fashions and um, equally adorable old noses. (Celebuzz)
4.) Oh, Demi, Demi, Demi Lovato. Girl, if you MUST lick your girlfriend's face while your cleavage is all busting out, don't take a picture. It will end up on the Internet. I know you probably didn't go to college yet, but c'mon, that's Being A Celebrity 101. Also though, we still adore you. (TheFABlife)
5.) On to more lighthearted things, this is what I want for Christmas--a beatboxing hamster. (No acorns were harmed during the filming of this LOLZ. Maybe a berry, though.) (YouTube)
6.) Before she was all underpants-sexytime on the November issue of GQ, "Glee" star Lea Michele used to be just a normal high school student, you guys! Except that she was still a really, really, like exceptionally good singer, and I probably would've hated her for it. (The Seven)
7.) Hey, I think I figured out what happened to the "Pants on the Ground" guy from "American Idol" Season 9: He invented these garter belts for guys--you know, the accessory that helps you keep your jeans at the precise height between your waist and knees. (NewsLite)
8.) Did you know that the 1990 family holiday movie "Home Alone" proves that Elvis is still alive? Well, still alive in 1990. Anyway, GAME CHANGER! Buzzfeed has 11 other mind-blowing factoids you didn't know about the film. (Buzzfeed)
9.) Last week at Madison Square Garden, a fan who was trying to be all sexy on Usher--after he'd pulled her on stage for a romantic serenade--did the most unsexy thing ever: She kicked him in the face. Lap dance EPIC FAIL. (RyanSeacrest.com)
10.) Presented without comment: The Lonely Island, featuring Akon (and Blake Lively and Jessica Alba), "I Just Had Sex" (Hulu)

+ Katy Perry is apparently "over" her celebrity crush on Justin Bieber, telling OK magazine that, "I think it's probably safe to say I'm married to my celebrity crush." Sounds like Russell Brand might have been getting jealous! (Just Jared Jr.)

+ Leighton Meester is giving "Gossip Girl" another two years, stating, "I think there's that old saying about going out on top." (Celebuzz)

Guys, you know what really makes Lea Michele happy? I mean besides singing show tunes and pop songs on "Glee" and thinking about how she wants to be the next Barbra Streisand? No idea? Girl likes to wave hello. A LOT.
Think I'm kidding? Lea Michele's waving game is not a game! Peep the evidence!



The prosecution rests (cue "Law & Order" BONG!). So infectious is Michele's passion for waving at the cameras that it rubs off on "Glee" cast mates like Dianna Agron...

She was like, "Lea! Please let me wave this time!? Just once!" Hey, we only point all this out because it's nice seeing some smiles and warmth. One can only survive off of youthful ennui for so long!
