    The Backstreet Boys reunite. (Big Hassle)

    They really mean it this time. Backstreet's back, alright?

    After decades of churning out chart-toppers and wooing girls with their slick moves and snappy jams, the Backstreet Boys — Nick Carter, AJ McLean, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell, and Kevin Richardson — are officially back and kicking off their 20th anniversary with a new album, "In a World Like This."

    The album, which hits shelves July 30, will also mark the start of their North American tour beginning three days later in Chicago. This will be the first time all five members have hit the stage as a group since 2006, and their twitter hashtag #comeseeyourboys already has fans drooling.

    While the boys say their admirers — formerly teenage girls, now grown women — can expect plenty of classic BSB moments, don't expect them to hit the stage with baggy jeans and bowl haircuts. Their vibe is a little more — dare we say it? — manly.

    They are all married with children,

  • Angelina Jolie, Sheryl Crow and Giuliana Rancic (Getty Images)

    Angelina Jolie revealed on Monday that she underwent a preventative double mastectomy after discovering that she carries the BRCA1 gene that increases her risk of developing breast cancer. The Oscar winner wrote about her decision in a riveting op-ed piece in the New York Times, "My Medical Choice."

    "My doctors estimated that I had an 87 percent risk of breast cancer and a 50 percent risk of ovarian cancer, although the risk is different in the case of each woman," the 37-year-old actress shared. "Once I knew that this was my reality, I decided to be proactive and to minimize the risk as much I could. I made a decision to have a preventive double mastectomy."

    Two days after missing women Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus, and Michelle Knight were discovered near the Cleveland, Ohio, neighborhoods from which they vanished nearly a decade earlier, details are starting to emerge about their rescue and horrifying ordeal.

    The women, who were held captive by local musician and bus driver Ariel Castro and his two brothers, made a harrowing escape on Monday after Berry was able to kick down a door with the help of neighbor Charles Ramsey. At the time, Ramsey, who said he was just munching on McDonald's when he saw a woman crying for help, did not realize who he was rescuing. Berry frantically called 911 and let the world know that she, her 6-year-old daughter that was born in captivity, and the two other missing women were alive.

    The nation and celebrities are still reeling from the chilling plot that seems fit for a Hollywood horror movie. Here's how they're reacting on Twitter!

  • Phillip Phillips: I Don’t Watch ‘American Idol’

    Despite his breakout success, Phillipps is still a country boy at heart. The guitar slinger dished to omg! about his upcoming tour with John Mayer, his girlfriend, Hannah Blackwell, and the hilarious ways he used to have fun in high school.
