Lauren Conrad’s New Romance
Feb 29th
Spotted: Lauren Conrad canoodling with hottie of yesteryear, Stephen Dorff. I spied LC ringing in her 26th birthday with 38-year-old Stephen, but I hear that she’s taking things slow with the notorious Hollywood playboy. Pals insist that they’re only hooking up which for The Hills starlets’ sake, I hope is true. Why darlings? Two words: Lauren Dorff. Shudder!

Scene & Heard: Matthew Morrison Disses His Ex
Feb 29th
“I once went out with a Brit. I didn’t realise she was such tabloid fodder. It was Kelly Brook…she’s not exactly the brightest bulb. We only went on one date.”–Glee hottie Matthew Morrison doesn’t mince words when it comes to his 2010 fling with the much lusted-after UK model who previously dated Jason Statham. But hopefully Mr. Schue will realize that in Hollywood, kissing and telling is the dimmest move of all…XOXO.

OMFGorgeous: Taylor Swift Down Under
Feb 29th
G’day, darlings. Our favorite country songbird Taylor Swift ditched her usual wardrobe of vintage dresses and crimson lips for the flapper-inspired Harper’s Bazaar Australia pictorial. Tay, clad in Gucci, got her Gatsby on for the magazine’s coveted cover, but is this a look she should stick with? Or is TS sans her Anthropologie style a shock to your senses?

Hot or Not: Rihanna’s Styrofoam Visor
Feb 29th
Once only found in used car lot giveaways and terrible Bat Mitzvah gift bags, Rihanna is trying to make the cheap, styrofoam visor happen. I agree that there are precious few looks that our rebellious RiRi can’t pull off, but this just may be one of them. Would you be inclined to rock this mini-headgear? Or is her hit “S&M” starting to stand for “sartorial mistakes”?

Cecily von Ziegesar Recaps “The Princess Dowry”

Who better to recap each week’s new episode of Gossip Girl than author Cecily von Ziegesar? In this week’s edition, she talks about how much she loved CeCe’s Irish wake and makes a plea for Dan to get a new haircut. Find out all her favorite moments in “The Princess Dowry” (Season 5, Episode 17).
So much happened last night, my mind’s still all atwitter (pun totally intended)! Some might say it was predictable. And sure, I sorta guessed CeCe was going to leave the whole shebang to Ivy, and I sorta guessed that Dr. van der Woodsen would turn out to be Lola’s dad, and I guessed a really long time ago that Georgina wasn’t the real Gossip Girl, she was just filling in. I guessed the what of it, but not the how of it. And boy, was it entertaining to watch it all unfold! You dig?
Sorry, I’ve had way too much caffeine this morning.
Here are some of my favorite moments from last night:
Favorite scene—CeCe’s Irish wake. Totally inspired. Loved the ridiculous Irish band playing constant fiddle-y Irish jigs. Loved Serena, Lily, and Rufus all slumped in chairs in front of the coat of arms bedecked coffin, sipping Irish whiskey and wondering if their lives could get any more bizarre, while the help from Cece’s pampered past—the butcher, her gardener, her driver—had a whale of a time celebrating her passing.
Favorite line—Blair to Estee, the plummy British-accented royal secretary appointed to her by Louis’s court: “You slimy little limey.”
Favorite absolute slime-bucket—Pinky-ringed and black shiny shirt-wearing Billy Baldwin as Dr. van der Woodsen, Serena’s daddy, and as it turns out, Lola’s. Well, Serena always wanted a sister.
Favorite bad hair—Dan’s. Why does no one fix it? (See hairstyle suggestions for him) Maybe he has to play an old-fashioned sword-wielding guy in tights in some upcoming PBS drama. It might actually look better if he tied it in a pretty black velvet bow. Or maybe Blair—since she loves him—will loan him one of her old headbands.
Favorite good hair—Ivy’s. Her long strands were toned a slightly deeper, caramel hue last night that I really dig. She’s not just another blond anymore. Money suits her.
Favorite outfit—Georgina’s black open-breasted, high-collared dress. So wickedly dominatrix-y, and so perfectly accessorized with a high, tight ponytail. She rocked it like no other evil bitch could.
That just about sums it up. I leave you with this image: Blair and Dan all a-smooch in the Humphrey’s Brooklyn loft, when suddenly the door bangs open and there are Lily and Rufus with all their luggage, having been kicked out of their Upper East Side penthouse by Ivy. It might get kind of cozy. And Lily might get sort of lost on those uncharted Brooklyn streets. But at least Rufus can go back to making breakfast without those meddling chefs and caterers always getting in the way.
Can’t wait for more GG storms in April!

Gossip Girl Recap Season 5, Episode 17

In Gossip Girl Season 5, Episode 17 “The Princess Dowry,” so many twists and turns happened that we thought we were on a roller-coaster! Find out the major plot lines below:
- Nate and Lola are Hooking Up – We left off on “Cross Rhodes” when Lola found out that Ivy has been impersonating her and she meets the family she didn’t know she had. She didn’t want to be alone after that life-changing moment, so she asked Nate if she could go back with him. The two actually look happy together when they wake up the next morning. Serena calls Nate looking for Lola and finally convinces him to bring her to S’s so the three of them can talk.
- CeCe Has Planned Her Own Funeral – Lily tries to make arrangements but is told CeCe has already come up with everything. The family goes to the apartment and it is an Irish wake with traditional upbeat music, and even the “help” is celebrating her life.
- Georgina Leaves Philip in Charge of Gossip Girl – Georgina Sparks is bored and Ivy invites her to CeCe’s wake, so she leaves her husband in charge of posting tips that have come in to Gossip Girl while she’s away. Only, Chuck sends in a tip saying that Dan was the one who sent in the video of Chuck and Blair saying they love each other. Philip copy and pastes the tip as Georgina told him, but forgets to delete the source, so Chuck is outed as the one who left the tip.
- Serena’s Dad Returns – Dr. William Van der Woodsen shows up at CeCe’s wake and it turns out he has the will. We also find out through a side conversation between him and Carol that he is Lola’s real father (meaning that’s Serena’s sister. WOW!)
- Estee Tricks Blair – She says she’s in love with Louis so she’s willing to help her get out of the prenup. All B has to do is stay out of the press. That means no Gossip Girl leaks, Page Six articles, etc. Blair thinks everything is going to work out until a tip about her and Dan makes it onto Gossip Girl — turns out Estee and Georgina were working together. Looks like the Waldorfs will have to pay the dowry.
- Ivy Gets Everything! – William reads the will and a huge chuck of CeCe’s assets — including the Rhodes apartment that Lily and Rufus live in — go to Ivy. Everyone thinks it’s a mistake. Carol thinks it’s going to the real Charlotte Rhodes. But, no no. It says “Ivy Dickens” in the will! At the end of the episode, Ivy kicks Lily and Rufus out of the apartment since it’s hers now.
- Dan and Blair Become Official – Blair tells Chuck she loves him but she’s not in love with him. She realizes Dan is the one for her and the two kiss — a lot. Dair fans scream with joy; Chair fans cry. (See Chair Vs. Dair)

“I don’t diet. I do exercise, but I don’t diet. You can’t work when you’re hungry, you know?”- Jennifer Lawrence dishes to Glamour UK on her sexy, shapely figure that–surprise–isn’t a result of her own personal hunger games.
Do you believe that our erstwhile Katniss chows down? Or is this just “I have good genes” 2.0?
