Leighton Meester Sex Tape Denial




Leighton Meester would like everyone to know that the rumored sex tape in which she was supposed to have given a foot job does not exist.

"[The tape] is not real, so it makes me sort of sad. It's unfortunate that it got carried as far as it did... I definitely understand the nature of people better now and that the mere allegation of something like that could be headline news. People think it's real because somebody says it is," she told Harper's Bazaar.

Meester graces the cover of the magazine's September fall fashion issue and inside poses for an editorial spread in which she ages from her 20s to her 50s. Here are some more highlights from her interview.

On handling her fame:
"I don't want most of what comes along with all of this. I'm doing everything I can to keep things separate. I feel like my friends are in a cult because we're like, No outsiders! I've never been crazy. I'm a very good girl, to be honest. I don't do anything to hurt anybody. Honestly, all I ever do is work."

On aging in Hollywood:
"Any fear of aging, I think, is simply vanity because what comes with age is so many wonderful things: wisdom, understanding. Every year, I'm always happy to be done with the previous age. If people want [to get Botox], do it."

Kourtney Kardashian - Kardashians Baby Daddy Throws Man Shower


Reality TV star KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN's boyfriend SCOTT DISICK didn't want to be left out in the lead up to the birth of their first child - and threw himself a 'man shower' to get baby gifts from his pals.
The 30-year-old socialite revealed her shock news last month (Aug09) and reunited with her 26-year-old former partner after learning she was carrying his child.
And as Kardashian's girlfriends arranged her baby-shower, Disick got involved with the pre-birth celebrations by partying in Miami with fellow celebrity father Kevin Federline - the dad of Britney Spears two sons.
She tells People.com, "We were joking that it was Scott's man shower, like his version of a baby shower.
"Guys get excited too about having a baby, so they should do something too. One of our friends started calling it a man shower, but I was like, 'Guys don't have tea and open presents!' But for them, dinner and then going to a nightclub is a man shower. They thought it was funny.
"That was it. That's as far as guys will ever plan unless they need an excuse to go out! I had no desire to go. I was relaxing, chilling. If they want to go have a man shower in Miami, then go ahead."

'Gossip' lovelies turn Twenties flapper girls ahead of eagerly-anticipated new series


As any Gossip Girl fan will tell you, the glamorous outfits paraded in the US series are as fascinating as the scandalous lives of the elite Manhattan teenagers it follows.

Shots from the set of the show, described as the younger generation's answer to Sex And The City, suggest followers won't be disappointed with the new season's fashion.

Actresses Blake Lively and newcomer Hilary Duff both arrived for a day at the 'office' in sparkling flapper girl dresses.

The starlets were preparing to film an episode that takes place during a Twenties-themed party.

US star Blake – society princess Serena van der Woodsen in the show – wowed in a figure-hugging, sequinned number, teamed with fish-net stockings.

Hilary - making her debut as a film star in search of the normal college experience - had picked out a sparkly black ensemble.

Rows of pearls and a jewel-encrusted headband topped off the Jazz Age look.

Actor Penn Badgley, who dates Blake on and off screen, was dressed in a Bugsy Malone-inspired outfit.

His girlfriend, whose success on the show has turned her into a worldwide fashion icon, has offered fans advice on how to achieve effortless style.

"I make sure I dress for my figure. Something has to look good on you, not just be in style," she says.

The third series of Gossip Girl, which sees the gang head off to college, hits screens on September 14.
