• Perez on Ashley Tisdale: Ashley Tisdale was spotted out in Los Angeles yesterday sporting her oversized gold Louis Vuitton “Vernis” Alma handbag.
  The Tiz was on her was to a casting office.
  And with what looks to be the end of The High School Musical series for her, we don't doubt she's looking for more work.
  You can only survive with Disney for so long!
  But, seriously, it's time for a Blondie/Teddy playdate. You can't keep those two cuties apart for much longer!


• MTV on Taylor Swift: Everywhere Taylor Swift goes she manages to make some sort of news, and this week is no exception for the 19-year-old. Her album, "Fearless," is once again at the top of the charts, and Taylor is stunned by the accolades.
  "I cannot believe that. I get a phone call every single week," she told MTV News at her "Saturday Night Live" rehearsal. "I honestly can't believe that. The fans have been so good to me. The fact that people actually like it, I can't believe it."
  With another week at #1 comes the opportunity to be the musical guest on this week's "SNL." And, making more news for herself, Swift is the youngest country artist to occupy the musical-guest spot. "I was just told that [and] I can't believe it," she said. "That never occurred to me — it feels like everything the past couple of months has been a dream."
  As a part of the legendary show, Swift also gets to work with host and "How I Met Your Mother" star Neil Patrick Harris, who revealed a secret or two about the country star.
  "Taylor Swift is lovely and — contrary to popular belief — is pretty tall," he said. "She's, like, 5'7 or 5'8'' and then wears heels and is 7'2". Next to her I look like Ryan Seacrest."
  Harris has obviously mastered the art of comedy, and during the rehearsals he and Swift got to share some quips for the promos. (Watch Swift and Harris filming the promos over in the Newsroom.) Does Swift have a possible career in comedy waiting for her? "She's good at reading cue cards," Harris joked.


• Taylor Swift did an AOL sessions and People Magazine photoshoot, and the pictures are gorgeous! Might post some later.
  
• Taylor was spotted shopping with the news host Katie Couric at Jeffrey Store in New York City on today's Afternoon.
• Entertainment Weekly on Jonas Brothers 3D: After helping pack multiplexes as the opening act in last year’s 3-D Miley Cyrus concert film, the Brothers are inviting their adoring fans to strap on those special glasses all over again—this time for an all-Jonas feature. ”We had a great time being part of Miley’s movie, but to be able to see what we liked in that movie and do more of it in our own movie was exciting,” says oldest brother Kevin, 21. So what was on the Jonases’ wish list? Tons of eye-popping arena footage from their summer ‘08 Burning Up Tour, plus a handful of scripted sequences and all-new performances. For one scene (pictured), they visited New York City’s Central Park to play ”Love Is on Its Way,” a tune that didn’t make the cut for their platinum-selling A Little Bit Longer. ”It’s been a dream of ours forever to film a music video in Central Park,” says brother Nick, 16. ”And to see it in 3-D is amazing. We’ve always said we wish we could watch ourselves play, but obviously that’s impossible!” At least, it was until now.

• HAIRSPRAY 2 ! Hairspray director Adam Shankman spilled the beans about the sequel to New Line's blockbuster movie-musical and just how Zac Efron and Brittany Snow fit into the big picture.Hairspray 2: White Lipstick is the sequel's official movie title, which was actually the original title for 1998's Hairspray. Shankman dished to MTV on more of teen idol Zac, 21, and less of Brittany, 22. Here's what he had to say:On Link Larkin getting hooked on acid: "I think that's probably part of the treatment that won't get used. And in the treatment, [Efron's drug use] is an accident. That's the kind of stuff where you're like: 'Yeah, I don¡¯t know if that¡¯s going to work.'"On who will take the place of the Von Tussles, the villians of the movie: "There'll be a change in villains. [John Waters' treatment] is ideas that we're just going to pick and choose from, and we'll see what happens with it. Probably [no Michelle Pfeiffer]. Not because we didn't love her, but because we just thought different adversaries [would be necessary]."On the Vietnam War backdrop: "No, it wasn't Zac."
