  • ‘Glee’ Gear Hits the Racks

    "Glee" stars Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina), Kevin McHale (Artie), and Heather Morris (Brittany) - Michael Tran/FilmMagic.comFans of "Glee" who want to wear their love for the hit Fox show on their sleeve can now get their fix. Macy's department stores are selling some fun fashions inspired by the high school musical just in time for back-to-school shopping.

    From $20 to $35, manufacturer Awake offers T-shirts that replicate the Cheerios uniform top, as well as V-neck tees, baseball tees (you know, the cool ones with colored sleeves?), and hoodies, all emblazoned with the show's logo. At least a couple of the tops also include the title of "Glee's" signature song, "Don't Stop Believing," in bright colors.

    The merchandise hit stores earlier this month. Over the weekend, "Glee" stars Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina), Kevin McHale (Artie), and Heather Morris (Brittany) met with Gleeks eager to get their hands on the clothes at LA's Beverly Center. What is Heather's fave thing about the line? "How comfy it is," she told People. Jenna and Kevin also gave props to the William McKinley High School T-shirt and a black-and-red

  • Kate Sends Eight Off to School

    Kate Gosselin takes her daughters Mady and Cara shopping near their Pennsylvania home. - Chris Watts/INFDaily.comHaving lots of little ones might have made Kate Gosselin the queen of reality TV, but it also means that at the end of every summer, she has to endure the dreaded back-to-school shopping trip ... times eight!

    At least the "Kate Plus 8" star knows better than to leave it to the last minute. She was photographed on Thursday taking her two older daughters, 9-year-old twins Mady and Cara, to scoop up some supplies, and perhaps some fall fashions, at a Target near their Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, home.

    Outfitted in T-shirts and flip flops -- with the exception of Kate's more challenging black, strappy ankle booties -- all three Gosselin girls looked like they'd rather be back on their summer vacation, which took them to Bald Head Island, North Carolina, among other places. Still, the trip to the store was at least somewhat successful, because they emerged with enough bags that they needed a shopping cart to return all their goodies to the car.

    The 35-year-old recently revealed on her blog

  • Meet the Stars of ‘Hellcats’

    If you're one of those people who still don't consider cheerleading a sport, you just might change your mind after watching the preview for the CW's new show about a competitive college squad, "Hellcats." The tumbling, the dancing, the stunts -- they're enough to make anyone stand up and, well, cheer.

Fierce female athletes will be surfing, snowboarding, skateboarding, and inline skating all day beginning at 12:30 p.m.

  • Paris Puts Her Best Foot Forward

    When you're Paris Hilton, life is never boring. Lately, though, the hotel heiress has had a particularly packed schedule of promoting products bearing her famous name. She channeled the late screen goddess Marilyn Monroe while launching her 10th fragrance, Tease, just last week, and this week it was time for her to talk up her new shoe collection in Vegas.

    Paris walked the pink carpet Tuesday at a fete in her honor at Tryst Nightclub inside the Wynn Las Vegas. Parents Rick and Kathy posed for pics with their oldest, who donned a LBD, Chanel fingerless gloves, and her own peep-toe pumps, natch, adorned with decorative bows. The next day, she was back in black, showing off designs from her spring line with Antebi Footwear at the MAGIC fashion convention.

    "Shoes are such an important part of a woman's wardrobe," Paris said. "I always try to design shoes that are flirty and fun, that will make a woman feel stylish and sexy when she's wearing them. After all, every woman needs a good pair

  • The Ladies Love Michael Cera

    Anna Kendrick and Michael Cera leave the GMTV studios in London. - INFDaily.comHe's not the most likely heartthrob, but girls can't help but find funny guy Michael Cera absolutely adorable. Is it the way the 22-year-old wore those headbands in "Juno"? Those corduroy pants in "Superbad"? Or just the deadpan demeanor he uses for delivering a hilarious line? Whatever it is, Michael's charm is working both on and off the set.

    Anna Kendrick, his co-star in the new action rom-com "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World," was all smiles as she and the Canadian cutie left the GMTV studios in London after a joint interview to promote the well-reviewed flick. Meanwhile, bespectacled Michael, who plays her brother in the movie, appeared awkward as ever as he toted a backpack and signed autographs for a crowd of fans who had gathered to see him up-close.

    Several other female stars of "Scott Pilgrim" recently raved abouttheir leading man during a chat with Yahoo! Movies. Mary ElizabethWinstead, who plays the gal Michael fights for during the film, gushedabout working alongside him.

  • Justin Bieber Gives Back

    JBiebs works the stage during his Nashville, Tennessee, concert. - Frederick Breedon/Getty Images North AmericaIt's official: Justin Bieber has become the artist you can't escape. This week alone, he's made headlines for unveiling the cover of his upcoming memoir called "First Step 2 Forever: My Story," for shooting photos alongside his white-hot gal pal Kim Kardashian, and for teaming up with Proactiv. (We know, the clear skin on his cherubic face doesn't need it!) "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy even offered JBiebs an open invitation to be on his hit show.

    While normally I'd find all this overexposure annoying, I just can't help but like the little guy. He's adorable -- obviously! -- and phenomenally talented, but he's also seriously sweet. The 16-year-old proved this once again Wednesday as he donated $1.06 from each ticket sold for his My World tour stop in Nashville, Tennessee, to recovery from last spring's flooding. The total JBiebs forked over? A whopping $32,690 for the nonprofit Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee.

    Even cuter is the fact the Usher protege was enthusiastic about the

  • Vanessa: ‘I’m Doing Movies Kids Can’t Watch’

    Vanessa Hudgens stars on the July cover of Glamour magazine. - Matthias Vriens-McGrath/GlamourAudiences know her best as the adorable Gabriella from "High School Musical," but Vanessa Hudgens makes it clear in a new interview with Glamour magazine that she's seriously ready to move beyond that label. The 21-year-old talks to the mag about her adult aspirations, her life as a starlet, and -- what we're really all dying to know! -- her relationship with hot boyfriend Zac Efron.

    One of the brunette beauty's most shocking revelations is her confession that the Disney movie that put her on the map actually went against the career she had planned for herself. "Before 'High School Musical,' I wanted to be a nitty-gritty actress. And 'High School Musical' came along, and I was like, "Oh my God, fun!" But the more we did it, the more prude I became," she explains. "When I am around kids and they come up to me, of course I am going to act a certain way, but at the end of the day, I'm doing this for myself. I'm going to be doing movies kids can't watch."

  • Introducing … Teen Sensation Justin Bieber!

    "Baby" singer Justin Bieber is so big these days, it's hard to remember the world before Bieber fever took hold. Yet the 16-year-old is still a fresh enough face that he's eligible for the "Best New Artist" category at next month's 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. He faces some stiff competition, including Ke$ha, Broken Bells, Jason Derulo, and Nicki Minaj, but only JBiebs stars in the network's new black-and-white, '50s-themed promo for the show.

    Check it out!

    The final scene, which shows screaming female fans chasing after the adorable crooner Beatles-style, is not that different from Beiber's real life. Just consider what went down with the heartthrob over the weekend when he posted a phone number he claimed was his own for his more than 4.5 million followers on Twitter. The actual owner of the digits, 15-year-old Kevin Kristopik of Detroit, Michigan, promptly received an estimated 26,000 messages from serious beliebers (aka hardcore Bieber fans)! The pint-sized pop star

  • Victoria Justice: ‘I Am So Far From Perfect!’

    Victoria Justice models a Michael Michael Kors dress and a D&G necklace on the cover of Teen Vogue. - Norman Jean RoyYou may not have heard of her just yet, but Victoria Justice's star is on the rise -- and fast! The 17-year-old already shines in Nickelodeon's hit sitcom, "Victorious," and now she's also working on an album to debut next year. So just who is this brunette beauty poised to be the next teen queen? Teen Vogue has the scoop in its September issue.

    First things first, she has no beef with the likes of Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato, two girls she's faced off against for years at auditions. "People always ask me, 'Is there a rivalry between the Nickelodeon and Disney stars? Do you guys hate each other?" she says. "Like everyone has to be on one team. If you're a Selena Gomez fan, you can't be a Victoria Justice fan. We're both half-Latin [Victoria's also half-Irish], and people put us in the same category."

    The refreshingly candid cutie also made it clear that, like any teen, she sometimes struggles against what she wants to do and what she's expected to do. In fact, that's why we saw her
