Chuck & Blair Win Our 25 Hottest TV Couples Tournament

26 May 2012 6:28 AM, PDT | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »

After more than 740,000 votes, the 'Gossip Girl' duo reigns supreme! Celebrate their win with 25 photos of Chuck & Blair's history as a couple. Last weekend, I asked HollywoodLife.com readers to pick their favorite TV couple from the past season, and now — seven days, 740,000+ votes, and countless angry comments later — I can finally crown a winner! Are you ready? You might want to 'sit down' for this one. (Sorry, bad "Chair" joke.) Anyway, Gossip Girl's legendary duo Chuck (Ed Westwick) and Blair (Leighton Meester) have emerged the victors of this battle of ships, beating 24 other hopefuls, including The Vampire Diaries' Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Elena (Nina Dobrev). But is it any wonder why Chuck and Blair came out on top? Their relationship has always been buzz worthy, but this past season was easily the most trying for the king and queen of the Upper East Side. After »

We're in the home stretch to the release of "The Dark Knight Rises," and the MTV Movie Awards is going to make it all the more tantalizing.

By now you've watched the handful of trailers for the new Batman film about sixty dozen times (right?), so it's probably time you were treated to some brand new sights and sounds from Gotham City. All Bat-fans would do well to tune into the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday, June 3, where director Christopher Nolan, Christian Bale, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Gary Oldman will be on hand to celebrate the "Dark Knight" trilogy and introduce some exclusive new footage from "The Dark Knight Rises," which hits theaters on July 20.

Meanwhile, the MTV Movie Awards is becoming an even bigger party as a couple of male strippers will be taking the stage at some point. "Magic Mike" stars Channing Tatum and Matthew McConaughey have joined the impressive line-up of presenters, »

Surf's Up! Teen Choice Award Nominations Announced

22 May 2012 2:01 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

We got our hands on the list of Teen Choice Awards nominees, which means it's time to start guessing: Which movies, songs, and celebrities will come out on top?

This year, the nominations are completely dominated by 2012's biggest blockbuster series, "The Hunger Games" and "Twilight." Both movies are pitted against each other for the Choice Movie: Sci-Fi/Fantasy award, and we're pretending that this could be a fight to the death.

"Twilight" fans are no stranger to the ongoing Team Edward vs. Team Jacob debate, and the Teen Choice Awards might finally put the question to rest -- both Robert Pattinson, who recently celebrated his 26th birthday and Taylor Lautner are nominated for Choice Movie Actor: Sci-Fi/Fantasy for their roles in "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 1." (Twihards, look out for "Breaking Dawn, Part 2," the fifth and final movie in the series, when it hits theaters November 16!)

Photos: Carly Rae Jepsen Dresses Like A Tween

21 May 2012 11:06 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Carly Rae Jepsen's hit song "Call Me Maybe" has been seared into our brains like a paper clip wedged into Silly Putty for months now.

When we first saw the "Call Me Maybe" video, we assumed Canadian-born Carly was 17 or so. The spunky bubblegum vibe of the video and her blunt bangs and cutesy clothes made us recall teenage Britney Spears voguing along to "Baby One More Time."

We were shocked, then, when we Googled and find out that not only is Carly beyond her high school years, but that she's actually way beyond them: she's 26.

As our friends at Crushable noted too, Jepsen stuck with her youthful wardrobe at last night's 2012 Billboard Music Awards, wearing a green tank top and glittery leggings and white tennis shoes on the red carpet and an armful of brightly-colored bangles to the afterparty. To contrast, former tween queen Miley Cyrus, 19, ditched her pants, »

Supernatural Season 8 No Swan Song, Size Doesn’t Matter to Gossip Girl Season 6

18 May 2012 4:40 AM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »

First, go check out our review of the Supernatural season 7 finale, and please share your thoughts. CW boss Mark Pedowitz spoke with members of the press about their recently announced upcoming Fall line-up (including Kristin Kreuk’s return to CW), which included the network’s largest pick-up of new programming, but he also took the opportunity to field  questions about Supernatural and Gossip Girl, two of CW’s long running, and I guess in some sense, historically, flagship shows.

Cancellation talk seems to swirl around the internet about Supernatural seemingly every other year or so, and always seems to stem around different bases of fans who appreciate expansion of the overarching Supernatural mythos and those who think the show sometimes gets a bit too crowded (Misha Collins’s Castiel seemed to be at the forefront of this discussion a »

Gossip Girl To End After Upcoming Sixth Series

17 May 2012 12:11 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Hit TV drama Gossip Girl's upcoming sixth season will be its last.

The teen show, based on author Cecily von Ziegesar's book series of the same name, debuted in the U.S. in 2007 and quickly became a global phenomenon, making stars of its lead cast members Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Chace Crawford, Ed Westwick and Penn Badgley.

But executives at The CW network, where the drama airs in America, have announced the programme will draw to a close after a shortened 11-episode sixth season hits screens this autumn.

In a statement to UsMagazine.com, show bosses reveal the final storyline will revolve around an unstable Serena van der Woodsen, the New York socialite played by Lively: "Serena has gone off the grid, beyond even the reach of Gossip Girl. Her friends fear for the worst and hope for the best, but even they can't imagine where they will ultimately find her." »

Emma Watson, Adam Sandler, Wiz Khalifa and More Will 'Work Hard, Play Hard' at MTV Movie Awards

17 May 2012 11:46 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »

Some of our favorite stars are joining the already impressive line-up to appear at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards on June 3.

For starters, Wiz Khalifa will take the mic to perform his brand new single "Work Hard, Play Hard" at this year's big event.

Along with the Wiz, a slew of awesome presenters have been announced. Emma Watson tweeted yesterday that she'll be joining her "Perks of Being a Wallflower" co-stars Logan Lerman and Ezra Miller onstage. (She also promised the premiere of the movie's newest trailer during MTV's pre-show).

That trio will be joined by another, decidedly funnier, trio. "That's My Boy" stars Adam Sandler, Andy Samberg and Leighton Meester will also be dishing out Golden Popcorns.

Khalifa and that fab six are in excellent company with previously announced presenters like Kristen Stewart and new daddy Chris Hemsworth, "Amazing Spider-Man" onscreen (and off-screen!) lovers Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, and »
