Bieber or Die: Justin Nominated For Webby Award
It’s Justin Bieber’s world. The rest of us are just living in it.
In fact, they should really rename the Webby Awards, one of which he’s nominated for, the Bieber Awards. Nominations for the 15th annual show – the Oscars of the Web – were unveiled today, and you best believe JB’s on the list.
Everyone from Justin Bieber to Jimmy Fallon to Conan O’Brien to Isaiah Mustafa are in contention. But none can match the greatness of a man who takes over whatever he pleases. Here’s the classic video that got the Bieb nominated:

Lily Collins Cast as Snow White
In real life, Lily Collins has already found her prince. She’s dating Taylor Lautner.
On the big screen, though, the daughter of music legend Phil Collins will be waiting for one, as she’s been cast as Snow White in Relativity Media’s upcoming movie based on the Brothers Grimm story.
Collins will appear opposite Julia Roberts (as the evil stepmother) and Armie Hammer (as the aforementioned prince) in this “action-comedy” retelling of the classic tale, set for a June 2012 release.
There’s actually another Snow White movie in the works and it also has a Twilight connection: Kristen Stewart

Glee Cast Covers Ke$ha: Watch Now!
Glee addressed the issues of underage drinking and sexual confusion on last night’s episode.
It also answered the classic question: how would a drunken cast of singing group members handle a cover of a Ke$ha song in a school-wide assembly celebrating alcohol awareness?
The answer: very well, at least for a couple minutes. Led by Heather Morris as Brittany, New Directions danced and sung along the “Tik Tok” this week. Check out the performance here, compare it to the original and be wary of the concluding few seconds. They’re gross.
Taiwanese TV Imagines Jersey Shore in Italy
Amid word that Snooki, Sitch, Pauly & Co. are headed to Italy this spring, a Taiwanese TV station has imagined – and animated – its take on how it sees Jersey Shore Season Four playing out. It’ll make more sense when you watch it. Probably.
Seems like a fairly accurate portrayal …

Kristen Stewart Rumored for Role of Snow White
Might Kristen Stewart be going from vampires to dwarfs?
The actress is reportedly the leading contender for the title role in Snow White and the Huntsman, a live-action adaption of the classic fairy tale. Viggo Mortensen and Charlize Theron are also up for parts in the film.
In the upcoming retelling of the Grimm brothers story, the Huntsman will serve as Snow White’s protector and mentor.
If Stewart does sign on for the drama, she would begin shooting right after filming on Breaking Dawn is complete. What do you think, Twihards? Can you picture her in the role?
Rob Kardashian Naked: Coming Soon?!?
Like sister, like brother?
Years after Kim Kardashian posed nude in Playboy (and likely seconds after she brought it up for the 797th time since that spread), Playgirl has extended a $45,000 offer to Rob Kardashian to bare it all.
“While most people assumed we’d be interested in Scott Disick, my interest actually lies in the adorable Rob Kardashian,” Playgirl rep Daniel Nardicio says. “Rob is a perfect example of the classic Playgirl model, and we’d be proud to have him join the ranks of other quasi celebs to strip for Playgirl.
Hmmm… Levi Johnston once posed for Playgirl, Rob. We’re

Susan Boyle on The View: O Holy… Crap!
Perhaps Susan Boyle should not sing at the Royal Wedding.
The Scottish sensation, who continues to rule the Billboard album charts, had an unfortunate incident this morning on The View. Performing the classic song “O Holy Night,” Boyle missed a note and lost her way. She motioned for the music to stop, but ended up standing awkwardly silent for a few moments before the hosts rushed in to save her.
See for yourself and then send in words of encouragement: hang in there, Susan! This was just a one-time hiccup:

Viewers love Teen Mom… so why not Teen Wolf?
Such is the thinking of MTV, as that network is actually turning the classic Michael J. Fox movie into a television series. To many, this might be considered sacrilegious, but to others, it’s a no-brainer.
Just consider the success of the Twilight Saga, True Blood and The Vampire Diaries. MTV has not announced a premiere date for the drama, but the first season will consist of 12 episodes and star Tyler Posey as a recently-bitten high school student. Watch a trailer for Teen Wolf below:
