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)

+ Taylor Swift joins the cast of a CGI-adaptation of Dr. Seuss' "The Lorax." Taylor will star alongside Zac Efron, Betty White and Ed Helms and will voice the role of (what else?) a young boy's dream girl. (The Hollywood Reporter)
+ Katy Perry announced via Twitter that all of the proceeds from sales of the light-up wands sold at her shows during her California Dreams tour will go toward relief in Japan. We love that idea. (Music Rooms)
+ Fleetwood Mac fans rejoice! "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy told reporters that an entire episode of the show centering around Fleetwood Mac's iconic album Rumours is in the works. (EW)
+ We're not totally sure, but it definitely seems like Rihanna and Colin Farrel went on a date. Who's the bigger bad boy/girl here? (Evil Beet Gossip)
+ Britney Spears is looking smokin' in the teaser video for her upcoming performance on "Good Morning America." It's gonna be soooo epic. (Buzznet)
+ Wiz Khalifa dismisses Lil Wayne's little diss about his Pittsburgh Steelers anthem "Black and Yellow." Is a rap battle a-brewin'? Can we watch? (MTV News)

Hi, kids! Snowpocalypse II: Frosty's Revenge sorta disappointed, didn't it? Before you break into that stockpile of canned goods, take a moment to read this week's roundup of all the best things on the Internet.
1.) If 2010 was Celebrity Engagapalooza, then 2011 is Celebrity Bumparoo (like Bonaroo, get it?). So let's start a list pregnant famous people: Kate Hudson, Jewel, Mariah Carey, MAYBE Khloe Kardashian, Victoria Beckham, Pink, Natalie Portman, Marion Cotillard, Tia Mowry (remember her?!), Owen Wilson (well, his girlfriend or whatever), Jane Krakowski, Rachel Zoe, Penelope Cruz and Jennifer Connelly. (MTV News)
2.) Mr. Katy Perry--Russell Brand, that is--covers the February issue of Cosmopolitan, and I don't know how I feel about it. Weirded out, mostly, I think. (Just Jared)
3.) Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens have reportedly rekindled their very sexy romance. Sorry, other girl who has my name and also writes for this blog. (Buzzworthy)
4.) First there was Greyson Chance, the kid who sang Lady Gaga better than Lady Gaga. Now there is Timmy, the kid who I'm not entirely convinced isn't actually Ke$ha. (Buzzfeed)
5.) I love Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, but like, it's not an album you can really play out loud in front of people, what with all those NSFW lyrics. Luckily, this blog has written a version of "Power" substituting all the naughty bits with yummy snack. (Tumblr)
6.) Former MTV PUSH Artist of the Week The Black Keys OWNED "Saturday Night Live" this week, tearing up the stage with live performances of "Howlin' for You" and "Tighten Up." Now that you love them, just remember where you heard about 'em first. (Hulu)
7.) Beyoncé and Miley Cyrus are good at a lot of things: singing, dancing, wearing hot pants. But, as you'll see in this video compilation by Urlesque, there are some things they are not so good at. Namely: British accents. Related note: Now that Katy Perry is married to a Brit, shouldn't her accent be really practiced and awesome? It's not. (Urlesque)
8.) 50 Cent made $8.7 million with one tweet. Insert joke about it being payable in half-dollars here. (NY Post)
9.) Avril Lavigne's video for "What The Hell" is going to be in Avatar-style 3D!!!!!!!!! Maybe she'll partner with Gaga to get some of those cool Polaroid glasses, and we can all wear them and watch it together on my couch. Just us blondes being blondes. You know how we do. (DirectLyrics)
10.) "Comparing Jane [Lynch] to the rest of the cast is like comparing the Great Barrier Reef with a piece of dog s***" And that, my friends, is why you should watch this video, featuring Sofia Vergara, Matthew Morrison, Cory Monteith and Heather Morris, with the help of a few other New Directions, sing "Nuthin But A Glee Thing." (Funny or Die)

And here is how we learn how to take a Native American quilt and turn it into a jacket for Ashley Tisdale. Here we have the "High School Musical" veteran walking around the frozen tundra of... Los Angeles International Airport.
It must have been pretty cold, because ol' Ashley grabbed the first thing out of her closet. It just so happened to be this extremely busy coat with a fur hood. Perhaps she was trying to one-up Ke$ha in the absurd outerwear department. But not nearly enough wildlife inadvertently died to make Tisdale's frock the way they did Ke$ha's symphony of fug.
We don't mean to make fun here. She's probably still a little shaken up over the disintegration of Zac and Vanessa. As we all are! Well...most of us (hi, Nicole!). Anyway, it's always good to see the 'Tis, even if she is all bundled up and hidden behind hater-blockers.

Dearest Ryan Reynolds,
We definitely have to say we didn't see this one coming! You and Scarlett Johansson seemed like such a great couple, and it's sad that you guys didn't make it. Who's to say what might happen in the future, but for now, we would like to offer our shoulder for you to cry on. Did I mention that shoulder is bare? It is.
You may recall that we offered our shoulder yesterday to Zac Efron after we heard the news of his split with Vanessa Hudgens. (Zac, if you're reading, we're not rescinding that offer.) Thankfully for both of you, we have two really strong shoulders. But not too strong. Not like, manly shoulders.
But you know who does have manly shoulders? You, Ryan Reynolds. Your shoulders are quite manly. As are your arms and your legs and your torso. Pretty much everything, all the way down to your feet. Totally manly feet. (You can't get these kind of compliments just anywhere.)
Listen, we know the transition from married Ryan to single Ryan might be a tough one to imagine, especially after two years of marriage. So to help you picture this transition, I created this adorable photo of you and I at a cool party with Jon Hamm, someone I hope is your friend. Besides your oddly shaped heads, look how much fun we're having! Like, this could be your life, Ryan!
Hang in there, Ry Guy, and by "hang in there," I mean "text me." I can help you with your healing process.
<3 Nicole, and Every Girl Ever

I may have professed my love to Zac Efron in a consoling letter to him after the news of his split with Vanessa Hudgens, but Ryan Gosling's got me fanning myself over here after seeing him on the cover of January 2011's GQ. Boi-oi-oing.
Ryan Gosling is the ultimate Renaissance man--actor, singer (in his band Dead Man's Bones), family man and sandwich artist. You read that right. In the issue, Ryan reveals that after he filmed "The Notebook" (also known as "The Movie That Ruined Real Life Relationship Expectations For Every Lady I Know"), he started working at a deli because he'd never had a "real" job before that. "The problem with Hollywood is that nobody works," Ryan explains. No word on which sandwich shop Ryan was stationed at, but let's just pretend it was at an all-male topless deli. More mayonnaise, please.
Just picture it--after you and and Ryan Gosling get married on the beach where he serenades you at the wedding, he'll hang out with your entire nutcase family and make everyone Reubens. Replace all the "you's" in that sentence with "me," and now we're talking.
The January 2011 issue of GQ hits newsstands Dec. 21.

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!)

Posted 9/3/10 5:44 pm ET by Tamar Anitai in Celebrity, Music, Must See, Photos, Style, VMAs

Celebrities seem to have only a few style options when dressing for the VMAs. They either go for the hilariously trashtacular look, as was the case with Pamela Anderson at the 1999 VMAs. Or Lil' Kim at almost every VMA she's attended. Or they wear the most unsubtle getup possible, like Rose McGowan's dress, which was backless as well as butt-less at the 1998 VMAs. Or, if you're Pete Wentz, you wear a monkey.
But with the return of the VMAs to Los Angeles, we can expect a return to form with old-fashioned retro Hollywood glamour. It's a fashionable fallback and a style choice that looks good on any and every star. Sequined gowns, mermaid dresses, slim-fitting suits, pinstripes, picture-perfect makeup, hair just so, everything camera-ready. It's an awards show, people. Step it up and dress it up!
So in honor of what we HOPE will be a return to old-Hollywood glamour on the VMA red carpet, we've put together a photo gallery of the VMA's most glamorous stars. Check out some of our favorite glamorous stars at the VMAs and vote for the star you think looked the most glamorous.
And check out some VMA red carpet standouts, like Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Christina Aguilera and more below.
Beyonce at the 2007 VMAs dressed like a golden Grecian goddess.
Katy Perry at the 2008 VMAs. in a patriotic World War II-era vintage romper.
Christina Aguilera at the 2006 VMAs, going majorly Marilyn in a stunning Bob Mackie-inspired Versace gown.
Rihanna at the 2007 VMAs in a hot pink Armani Privé mermaid gown that's totally vintage inspired.
Jay-Z at the 2005 VMAs, rocks the original gangster's gangster look in a pinstripe suit and white shirt and tie.
The Jonas Brothers at the 2008 VMAs, suited up like perfect gentlemen.
Don't miss the 2010 MTV VMAs live from Los Angeles on Sunday, Sept. 12, at 9/8c, hosted by Chelsea Handler.

Watch out, Zac Efron, because there's a new guy in town and he might just invade your high-school heartthrob territory.
In the new She And Him video for the song "In The Sun," off the duo's upcoming album Volume Two, singer Zooey Deschanel literally dances circles around her cooler-than-cool musical counterpart M. Ward, while he struts and skulks through the halls like a modern-day James Dean. Swoon!
Truth be told, I'm not a huge fan of Ward's soul patch, but when he breaks into a guitar solo amid a sea of hula hoops, it's like nothing else matters.
Watch the video for "In The Sun" by She And Him below. The band's second album, appropriately titled Volume Two, comes out March 23.

Holy V-neck, Batman, I thought Zac Efron was putting out singles for a minute there. But it's actually a spruced-up John O'Callaghan of The Maine, and dude deserves a raise, because that blazer is looking all. right. on him. Don't get me wrong: I enjoyed the entirety of The Maine in their airport appearances (as part of the band's tour diary from a few months back, trust me, the dance parties were memorable), but this new production goes the extra mile, I would say, to hold my attention.
And yes, The Maine's new video, "Into Your Arms," off Can't Stop Won't Stop, is set in an airport and runs backwards -- VERY MUCH like David Cook's "Come Back To Me" video! But what David Cook's video lacks that The Maine has in spades is John O'Callaghan's lip curl! Hearts!
Watch a (former? potential?) flame going backwards in time through extreme airport hell while the guys of The Maine remain cool amidst chaos. I feel for this girl. But at least her hair looks good. And she also has a really close encounter with John. Why doesn't that happen to me at LaGuardia!?
