The cast of "Beverly Hills, 90210" pops a pose at the beach. - Aaron Spelling Prod./Courtesy: Everett CollectionLong before the CW reboot, "90210," hit the airwaves in 2008 -- and back when its star AnnaLynne McCord was all of 3 -- the original gang from "Beverly Hills, 90210" arrived on the scene. I don't know about you, but I haven't been the same since seeing Brenda have her heart broken by her hot BF Dylan and her bestie Kelly, Brandon struggling with a gambling addiction, and, last but not least, Donna Martin graduating.

For people like me, today -- 9/02/10 -- is just one more reason to celebrate the best worst show ever. (Well, except for "Saved By the Bell." Nothing else was that cheesy.) So here are a few ways of appropriately marking this milestone:

Blast a message on Twitter. This is the preferred route for former Peach Pit regulars Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth, as well as Nicole Richie, Whitney Port, and more.

Get comfortable in a Brenda Walsh-style flannel shirt and fire up your DVDs. I'd suggest seasons 2 and 3, which include Dylan and Kelly's scandalous summer at the beach, the

Budget-friendly shopping has never been so much fun -- or star-studded! This fall, everyone from those oh-so-chic Olsen twins, to the (slightly) edgy Miley Cyrus, to the '80s-inspired Madonna has her own affordable clothing line. Check out just some of the looks at a store near you on this episode of "The Thread."

Sammi and Ronnie, of "Jersey Shore," appear to be back together after their on-screen feud. - Wagner Az/PacificCoastNews.comDuring the first season of "Jersey Shore," I couldn't pull myself away from the TV simply because I didn't believe people like that actually existed. Every episode left me wondering, for example: They think skin that color looks hot? Seriously, that's how they dance? I remember thinking it was going to get old very quickly.

Surprisingly, though, the second season of the MTV reality hit has provided even more awesomely bad moments, involving tacky wardrobe choices, hijinks in the hot tub, and utterly ridiculous conversations. The show is even more entertaining this time around because now these characters have a history, which leads to tons of drama. This is particularly true in the case of Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola and Ronnie Magro, who spent "Jersey Shore's" early episodes cuddled up like an old married couple (except for Ronnie's boardwalk brawls, of course) and lately have been so on-again/off-again that they make Drew Barrymore and Justin Long's relationship look stable.

Drake is one of a long list of big-name performers scheduled to take the stage at the 2010 MTV Music Awards. - Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic.comYear after year, the MTV Video Music Awards is where the unthinkable happens. It's the kind of unstuffy ceremony where, say, Kanye steals the mic from Taylor Swift, or Britney bombs onstage in what was supposed to be her big comeback. How cool would it be to watch all the craziness go down in person?

Yahoo! Music is giving away two tickets to this year's show on September 12, plus airfare and hotel. For details on how enter and complete rules, visit Yahoo! Music on Facebook.

Meanwhile, check out Drake in the latest retro promo for the bash. The black-and-white spot shows the rapper back in the Rat Pack era, wearing a suit and skinny tie and tossing on a hat that looks like it could have been a loaner from Frank Sinatra himself, before arriving for an eagerly anticipated gig.

In real life, Drake's just one of many performers, including Usher, Justin Bieber, Paramore, and Eminem, scheduled to hit the stage on the big night.

So enter now for your chance to party like a rock star! The

Heidi Montag confesses her plastic surgery has had major consequences in the new Life & Style . - Nathanael Jones/PacificCoastNews.comJust when you thought all the drama of the former "Hills" couple known as Speidi couldn't get any more ridiculous -- their alleged split, Spencer's plans to direct a movie with 3D breasts, and now, the sex tapes he claims to have -- Heidi has taken it to the next level. Nine months after she packed in 10 plastic surgery procedures in one day, the busty blonde says going under the knife was the downfall of her marriage.

"Spencer begged me not to get the first surgery [a nose job and breast augmentation in 2007] and it almost broke up our relationship," Heidi tells Life & Style in a new interview. "Then he begged me not to get the second one and it did break our relationship."

After the surgery, Heidi needed help doing everything. "No one wants to be taking care of his wife -- who looks like she was in a horrific accident -- 24 hours a day, when he begged her not to do it in the first place," Heidi says. "Spencer didn't sign up for this in our marriage."

Heidi didn't sign up for those

Aoki Lee Simmons pops a pose at her birthday fashion show in LA. - Matthew Simmons/WireImage.comWhen you're the daughter of Kimora Lee Simmons and Russell Simmons, life is full of the model-turned-reality TV star's signature word, "fabulosity." Her daughter, Aoki Lee Simmons, celebrated turning 8 Tuesday, and let's just say, the event was not your typical children's birthday party.

The cutie enjoyed her own fashion show at Modani in West Hollywood, California, complete with friends, hair and makeup for everyone, fun fashions, and a three-tier, black-and-white cake. Guests even nibbled on fruit stuffed inside a life-size stiletto heel made of chocolate!

The best part? The extravaganza was staged for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, which grants the requests of children with life-threatening medical conditions. Kimora even posted a pic of her girls, Aoki and older sister Ming Lee Simmons, 10, with the guests of honor, Meg Wesley and Taal Mosely.

Of course, Kimora's youngest, Kenzo Lee Hounsou, also took part in thecelebration. The 1-year-old tot -- whose dad is Kimora's hubby

Actress Jennifer Garner and her 4-year-old daughter Violet spent some quality time together Tuesday in the Big Apple. The adorable pair cozied up for a carriage ride -- and some animated conversation! -- through Central Park. They also caught "Mary Poppins" on Broadway.

Although dad Ben Affleck and Violet's baby sis, 20-month-old Seraphina, were nowhere in sight, the entire Garner-Affleck clan was spotted earlier this week in New York. The family has temporarily relocated to Manhattan while both parents work on upcoming projects. The "Alias" actress has been filming the remake of "Arthur," while her hubby, who just toasted his 38th birthday on August 15, is set to release "The Town" on September 17.

In an interview with Parade earlier this year, Jen, 38, acknowledged how lucky she is to have a flexible job that allows her to indulge in lots of fun with her girls. "I'm privileged, because I have a lot of freedom," she said. "I want to use it to make as warm and normal a life as I can
