day 12

gossip girl in texas

gossip girl stars chace crawford, ed westwick, and jessica szohr were spotted out to dinner at plano, texas's the shops at legacy saturday night along with crawford's family.  crawford is a native of the dallas suburb, while ed and jessica are assumed to just be family guests.  ed's presence makes sense as he is english and would not exactly go home to celebrate thanksgiving in the uk.  though, his being in town does nothing to squelch rumors that he and chace are an item. jessica, on the other hand, seems to be quite the random addition.  fans who spotted the cw stars said they all appeared shorter in person, and seemed a little awkward.  maybe its the lack of stage lighting and makeup? chances are chace was sporting makeup anyways.  sources also say that the crawford matriarch was looking a little tipsy as she stumbled out of mi cocina at the shops and chace had to take the keys from his mother before they left the area.

britney, of course

britney spears made her third european performance of #1 hit womanizer on simon cowell's the x factor on saturday night.  click here to check out the rendition.  britney seems to finally be getting into the groove of things; this is the best the choreography has looked since she started the mini tour and the mother of two actually appears to be happy.  you can also check out britney on the new cover of glamour, looking more like her old self (probably with the aid of a little photoshop). check out the scanned pages over at the daily stab.  you can also see miley cyrus's non-lip-synched performance of "7 things" from the x factor here.  miley seems to be channeling her inner rocker, which comes off a little awkward.  however, the singing was actually good.  

project runway delay

with all the lawsuits between the weinstein brothers, nbc/universal, and lifetime flying around, it seems we've forgotten that the three big powers are fighting over a tv show, project runway. shooting of the show's sixth season has already been completed, with this cycle taking place in los angeles.  no word on when we'll get to see the show, with the earliest premier date being summer 2009, if anything clears up.  and, along with the scenic change, comes other show changes.  because the season flipped coasts, mainstay judges michael kors and nina garcia were unable to be bicoastal.  so, it's out with the old and in with the new.  the two judging mainstays will still make appearances, but the panel with have a revolving cast of characters to fill their places. this revolving door features mostly hollywood tabloid targets,  with two of the leaked names being lindsay lohan and eva longoria.  hopefully, the two actresses will still be relevant by the time the show makes it to air.
