Taylor Swift is like the Kate Middleton of Nashville (just go with it), so the city is always bestowing her with plenty of songwriting awards and other accolades... and now they've allowed her to open her own music school! The Taylor Swift Education Center opened on Saturday (bit weird, but again, go with it) and is part of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. The whole thing cost a cool $4 million to create.
Here's Taylor's statement:
"I'm really excited about this music education ce...
Hugh Jackman is one of those stars who's out there doing his thing, not causing any trouble and generally seems like a pretty okay guy - and a pretty hot one, according to most polls. When he does end up in the news, it's usually for a good reason, and this time is no exception.
For his 45th birthday on Saturday, Hugh spent the night singing and dancing at his One Night Only event at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, during which he raised over $1.85 million for charity - The Motion Picture & Television Fund, to be particular. Whaaaat? Nice ...

Kelly Clarkson and boyfriend Brandon Blackstock got engaged in December of last year, and while they've been too busy to actually get married and are just ~enjoying being engaged~, that hasn't stopped Kelly from looking ahead to the future... which includes LOTS OF BABIES.
From Access Hollywood:
"We're getting married soon - like really soon - and I already told him that when we're past the wedding, I want a baby. I was like, 'That's my Christmas present that you can give me'."
Oooh, so this story is a double hitter - we f...

Rose McGowan has apparently been dating this guy Davey Detail (what a stupid name) for just over a year and they decided, hey, why not tie the knot? If we don't like it, we can always end things later! It was this knowledge of the ease of divorce - and, of course, the love in their hearts - which led the pair down the aisle in an intimate Los Angeles wedding ceremony at the Paramour Mansion on Saturday.
From E! News:
A source tells E! News, the ceremony was "enchanting and magical," adding that the couple wed in front of about 60 peo...
Australian Branka Delic is a Jon Bon Jovi superfan - and who wouldn't be? (That's a rhetorical question - don't answer it.) He's a stud. She's been planning to marry her longtime partner, Gonzalo Ciadera, for a while, and she knew she wanted Jon to be part of the ceremony. In fact, she wanted him to walk her down the aisle! So she launched a website called BonJoviWalkMeDowntheAisle.com and turns out... he did just that.
The pair were married on Saturday at the Graceland Chapel in Las Vegas (romance!) -...
Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny are totally down for doing a third X-Files film -- but is anyone else? The 2008 sequel made an appalling $4 million on opening day, so it would really be up to the studio. And then it's a matter of whether or not fans would go see it. Here's what Duchovny said about it at a panel for the TV show's 20th anniversary, via Los Angeles Times:
All the principals are on board. Gillian and I want to do it, so it's really up to 20th Century Fox at this point...If...
Lauren Conrad is engaged to some dude named William Tell -- seriously -- and she's got a very nice ring to show for it. It's actually pretty damn close to what I would want my dream engagement ring to look like. Not like it matters at all. She posted the photo (above) on her website.
Zimbio reports that William Tell was a musician in the band Something Corporate and is now a full time USC law student.
So there you go, that's what "LC" is up to. Last time we wrote about her was in 2011.

Have you ever heard of a more perfect pairing than Susan Sarandon and Downton Abbey? Maybe it's just because my first memory of her was as Marmie in Little Women as a kid, but period dramas just seem to suit her. Shit, re-cast her as Lady Grantham, because Elizabeth McGovern is fucking dreadful, sorry to say.
In any case, PBS will be running Downton here in the States, as per usual, and Susan has been tasked with hosting Return to Downton Abbey, a special that will give a "tantalizing taste"...
Sandra Bullock is lovely and really sweet and one of the least offensive stars in Hollywood and I've been wanting to see Gravity for EVER (I need to hit up that IMAX - is it worth it?) so it sucks that she dealt with depression while shooting the film. The nature of the the whole "stuck in space" storyline meant she had to spend a fair bit of time in an isolation tank - we're talking 8-10 hours some days - which really took a toll on her mental and emotional state.
From The View (via DS):
"I was depressed, I was ...
... In the 'Prime Time' video, that is. That's right, Janelle Monae's new single, 'Prime Time', features Miguel and they shot the video together and here it is and here they are. Janelle plays her alter ego Cyndi Mayweather in the clip, and Miguel's character is called Joey Vice, though I'm not quite sure why. Anyway:
What do we think? Janelle's new album is really amazing, start to finish. The production is phenomenal. She's still one of the most underrated artists out there, I'd say. Still, I...
