Kevin Federline: How He's Trying to Lose the Weight
National Photo Group
Kevin Federline is in therapy.
He has no choice. It's part of the regimen he's being put through as a competitor on the upcoming seventh season of Celebrity Fit Club.
High School Musical star KayCee Stroh, who is also competing on the weight-loss reality show, says everyone has to keep a daily journal, too.
Even so, the former Mr. Britney Spears has yet to break down in front of anyone because...
Is There Any Real Dirt on Selena Gomez?

How come everybody seems to love Selena Gomez? You can't go anywhere to look for dirt on this girl.
—Andre H.G., via the Answer B!tch inbox
And thus the circle was squared: Your second sentence essentially answers—or at least partially answers—your question.
Tweens love Selena Gomez because—aside from her hit show (Wizards of Waverly Place, people) and music, of course—she offers just enough bubblegum intrigue to reel you in without grossing you out.
This is not Britney Spears, with her icky bare feet traipsing in and out of public bathrooms, and her erstwhile bald head leering into a paparazzi lens, and her stripper poles, and her...ew. Britney is too much for that crowd. Tweenies just want to watch some TV and, um, hear a cool song, and pretend that their favorite stars are engaged in feuds.
Nobody—except for maybe Demi Lovato or Miley Cyrus—provides a better canvas for that kind of pink sparkly unicorn fantasy.
Exactly what is Selena's magic formula? Well...
Zac Efron Thinks High School Musical Is Boring
Nylon Guys
It has been far too long since we've seen Zac Efron's adorable mug on the cover of a magazine.
And while the poses in Nylon Guys aren't exactly his most original—we've seen the High School Musical hottie's plaid shirts and downward glances plenty of times—they are an adorable way to start your Friday nonetheless.
Still, now that he's promoting a grown-up movie with Me and Orson Welles, he's subtly dissing the fluffy flicks that catapulted him into our hearts.
Fashion Police: Too Much Sporty, Not Enough Spice!

Sit down for a second, Ashley Tisdale, and listen up. There comes a time in a young celebrity's life when she has to make tough choices, and at the Fame premiere in L.A. last night, you made the wrong one.
A skimpy, Pepto pink jumper with superstrappy black heels? Oh girl, it's weirdly sporty—there's too much skin and not enough glamour. You're walking the red carpet, not doing laps!
Hey, don't cry—you'll get past this, Tiz!
Every Disney starlet goes through an awkward phase, where they try to shed their middle school pedal pushers and slink into a sexier, more adult look—just don't be like Vanessa and take pictures in between!
Our advice: Crank up the glitter a little bit and stay out of the Juniors sporting section, 'K?

Vanessa Hudgens Really Wants to Grow Up and Forget Naked Pictures
Carter Smith for Allure
It's hard out there for a High School Musical alum. Just ask Vanessa Hudgens, who spends the majority of her October Allure cover story begging everyone to treat her like a grown-up.
"People think of me as the High School Musical girl," she laments. "There's nothing wrong with that. My character was a great role model, but I get so bored doing the same thing. I want to grow like everybody else."
And she is determined to accomplish this, whether it be naked pictures (we'll talk more about those in a minute) or playing a prostitute in Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch. "It totally is my Angelina Jolie part," she said of the role. "I get to run around with guns and fight big men."
It's not just Angelina's career the 20-year-old wants to emulate...

Zac Efron may be spinning into a theater near you.
I just got word that the 17 Again heartthrob's peeps are taking a look at turning first-time author Robert Rave's debut novel, Spin, into a feature film.
No deals have been made, but Efron would star as Taylor Green, a recent college grad from the Midwest who works for one of New York City's most wretched publicists. Think The Devil Wears Prada in the world of public relations...

Hudgens: The Real Story on Latest Nude Pics
Flynet
Didn't Vanessa Hudgens learn her lesson about taking naked photos of herself with a camera phone?
With another batch of racy pics of the 20-year-old High School Musical star hitting the web today, Hudgens finds herself facing Nudie Controversy 2.0.
While her camp is staying mum, sources confirm to me it's definitely Hudgens in the pics.
However, I'm also told they're nothing new...

Shocker! Twilight Leads Teen Choice Noms
Summit Entertainment
UPDATE: A whopping 75 categories wasn't nearly enough. On July 8, 2009, Fox announced second wave of 13 more categories (see below), specifically aimed at summer movies and television. They've also jumped on the Twitter bandwagon, adding the Choice Twit section, for which E!'s own Kim Kardashian is a nominee.
A performance by the Black Eyed Peas was also promised in the announcement.

Twilight may have been ignored at the Oscars, Golden Globes and the like, but the vampire movie is scoring where it really counts—with the kids!
The Robert Pattinson romance earned an even dozen 2009 Teen Choice Award nominations, including Choice Movie: Drama and Choice Movie: Romance.
High School Musical 3: Senior Year and Gossip Girl each landed an impressive 10 nods, while Miley Cyrus single-handedly scored 10 of her own. The Jonas Brothers, who are hosting the big show, squeaked by with a nice nine.
Additionally, the E! family walked away with four fabulous gongs—Choice Reality Show for Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Choice Female Reality Star for Kim Kardashian, Choice Late Night Show for Chelsea Lately and Choice TV Personality for E! News' Ryan Seacrest!

Madonna Pays Tribute to Michael Jackson in Concert
The reigning queen of pop paid her respects to the late King of Pop Saturday night with a musical tribute to the star.
Madonna performed at the O2 in London, the same arena where Michael Jackson was set to stage his This Is It! series of concerts beginning July 13.
As Madonna sang "Holiday" during this stop on her Sticky and Sweet tour, a Jackson impersonator took the stage, sporting a sequin-embellished jacket, white glove, white socks and a white T-shirt. An image of a young Jackson was projected in the background.
The impersonator then moonwalked to Jackson's "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'."
After Madonna shouted, "Let's give it up for one of the greatest artists the world has ever known," she and her dancers donned jeweled gloves on their right hands to honor Jackson in their last dance.
Madonna wasn't the only mega-star paying tribute to Jackson in recent days. At its world tour opening show in Barcelona last week, U2 performed "Angel of Harlem" and Bono threw in some lyrics to some of Jackson's greatest hits.
