Old Navy's "February Air"

Ever wonder what that catchy song featured on the new Old Navy commercial is?? Well after seeing it so many times during the award show season this past month, I have done some research and found this fabulous artist and song, both which I can't get enough of. And considering it's the last day of February, I figured what perfect timing to share this bit of news...

WHO: Lights
WHAT: "February Air"
WHERE: Her MySpace Page (You must add her as a friend!)

And just for fun, a clip of the Old Navy commerical:

Owen and Kate doing the "nasty"


According to this week's Us Weekly mag Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson may be back at it again. After Owen's suicide attempt, Kate must be ready to give Owen another chance at love. She broke it off with him because of the lack of attention she was receiving from him due to his part hardy ways. It's kinda weird that Owen, who's' knocking on 40's door, parties more than Kate at 28.


"They are hooking up," a Wilson insider told Us. Confirms a Hudson source, "They have definitely been talking, hanging out and, yes, hooking up."

Tori Tells All

In her upcoming autobiography, Tori Spelling is revealing that Donna Martin wasn’t the only one who had a crush on David Silver.

“I had an insta-crush on Brian Austin Green,” Spelling reveals in excerpts to People. “Brian was the guy on the show my age. We had something going over the years we worked together. We were always fighting, making up, having fun and hating each other. We were just young.”

Not only does Spelling reveal the chemistry that the whole world may have been rooting for, but she also dishes out some other interesting dirt:

Shannen Doherty’s confirmed bad-girl image.

“A night with [Shannen] meant going to the hottest club and drinking until the early hours. I knew she was a ‘bad influence,’ but I liked her anyway.”

Doherty and Jennie Garth’s rocky relationship.

“Shannen had everything, but she could be arrogant and carefree. Jennie [Garth] was outspoken when she thought Shannen was out of line. Sometimes they got along, but there were explosions. Once they got into a fistfight.”

Luke Perry’s nickname for Spelling.

“As for Luke Perry, he called me ‘Camel’ because I had long eyelashes. Trust me, Luke Perry can call you ‘Camel’ and make it sexy.”

For more 90210 drama and an inside look into Spelling’s life, look for sTori Telling to be in stores around March.

Lindsay as Marilyn

Lindsay Lohan appears like she's never been seen before in the Spring Fashion issue of New York magazine on stands today.

In an exclusive photo portfolio by Bert Stern, the same photographer who shot the original "Last Sitting" six weeks before Marilyn Monroe was found dead due to an apparent overdose in 1962, Lohan recreates the famous series of photos down to a tee. From the lighting and the shellacked blonde wig to Lohan's willingness to appear in little more than a chiffon scarf, the photos were shot on Feb. 5 at the Hotel Bel-Air. Telling the magazine that she was comfortable with the nudity, although admitting she had done "250 crunches" the night before the shoot, Lohan explained why it was so easy to recreate the well-known photos. "I didn't have to put much thought into it. I mean, Bert Stern? Doing a Marilyn shoot? When is that ever going to come up? It's really an honor."

No stranger to scandal herself, Lohan calls Monroe's suicide "tragic" and tells the magazine, "You know, it's also tragic what just recently happened to someone else." When asked if she was referring to Heath Ledger, she answered, "They are both prime examples of what this industry can do to somone." Adding, "...I sure as hell wouldn't let it happen to me."

Britney A Teacher?

Recently spotted back at the Millenium Dance Complex, Britney Spears spent a part of her Monday teaching a dance class for six children ranging in age from 4-7. Dressed (appropriately?) in ripped fishnets and red boy shorts, Spears taught choreographed routines to Madonna's "Holiday" and "Material Girl" as well as letting her pupils do a little free style dancing. "She even played age-appropriate games in a circle, pretending to be a choo-choo train," Robert Baker, director of Millenium, told People.

Apparently Spears had so much fun, she asked to teach another class.

Baker added, "Britney was just amazing with the kids and everyone ended up having a blast. At the end of the hour class, all the kids hugged Britney and she seemed very happy."

Hmmm...interesting.

Rachel Bilson in Lucky Magazine


Check out Rachel Bilson in Lucky Magazine. She showed up for the New York photo shoot wearing an adorably cool outfit of vintage boots, a raglan-sleeved Heart (the band) tee, and chic high-waisted sailor pants with so many buttons that she asked if she could leave them half open during our interview. “I love these so much, but they’re such a pain to get in and out of,” she explained.

This month, the ever-down-to-earth 26-year-old plays the female love interest in Jumper, an action-adventure/sci-fi film in which she performs most of her own stunts. “I had to surrender control and let go of a lot of fears; it had a big impact on my life,” she says. “I’ve noticed even with clothes, I’m more experimental and trying to take risks, but still feel like myself.”

Rachel Bilson has the kind of style that looks immaculate, of-the-moment, and truly effortless—even when there’s a lot of thought behind it. “I’m constantly evolving, figuring out what works in my wardrobe,” says the 26-year-old actress. “My favorite thing about fashion is creative expression and keeping everything a little unexpected.”
