Amber.Stardoll- Get ready for the duet of the century tweens! Demi Lovato is well under way preparing for her new come back album with the help of musical giants such as Timbaland and Sebastian, but it doesn't stop there. Demi has also brought in the biggest gun of them all.. (well in teen world at least) - Justin Bieber! Sebastian teased fans on twitter yesterday, saying how a "special guest" has been stopping by for a "super duet". This urged fans to guess like crazy who it might be, and shortly thereafter Sebastian responded to one fan, "@AndreaLovesSwag u said justin bieber that is a very very good guess.”
We think Demi has just secured herself a golden ticket to a VERY successful come back album!

The Council of Fashion Designers of America inducted thirty-three new members into its organization last week, a record number. “The class of 2011 represents the largest number of designers since the organization’s founding in 1962,” said Steven Kolb, the CFDA’s CEO. Don’t be fooled: this year’s huge class size doesn’t mean acceptance into the CFDA is getting any easier. Prospective members must submit a resume, portfolio, and two letters of recommendation from current CFDA members, all of which is followed by a series of interviews. With an admission policy that rivals the Ivy League’s, the CFDA selects only the cream of the crop. “Each new member is uniquely talented and collectively they add strength to the ever growing influence of the CFDA and American fashion,” Kolb said. Many of the designers, like Prabal Gurung, Rogan Gregory, Olivier Theyskens, and Eddie Borgo are already household names (at least, New York households) while others, like Tess Giberson, Derek Miller and Ippolita Rostagno will get a huge boost from their new membership. To celebrate the group’s induction, Donna Karan will host a party for the new members this fall. Click through for a full list of designers, and congrats to them all!

- Rihanna has been sporting bright red locks for awhile now but we just spotted her with a slightly darker red and it looks amazing! The darker red gives her skin a beautiful glow and we think it's perfect color for her, much better than ketchup color she recently had! What do you think about Rihanna's new hair color?

Wow, it’s so weird to be back writing a follow-up post for ELLE.com after a series of guest posts two years ago, when the glorious E. Jean Carroll plucked an anonymous, homeless blogging chick (that would be me, btw) out of obscurity by offering her a three-month internship. And what’s happened since? The lovely people at ELLE have asked me… Well, I’ve written a book, The Girl’s Guide to Homelessness. It came out at the beginning of May and has gotten much more buzz than I ever could have hoped and critical reviews that have sort of floored me—Publishers Weekly, Augusten Burroughs, Kirkus, Library Journal, Booklist, People Magazine, and many more have recommended it, some with starred reviews. The book won ELLE’s #1 Readers’ Prize in June, which sort of felt like an odd and comforting coming-of-full-circle, in a way.
It’s all a very surreal sensation for someone who never got around to feeling like a “writer” rather than a blogger. There are days where I feel like I’ve somehow accidentally snuck into someone else’s life. Somebody who’s a “real author”. There’s been a lot of “finding my voice” and coming to terms with being a public figure, which I’m slowly adapting to, I think. A terrific theatre in Orange County, South Coast Repertory, has hired me as their Marketing Assistant. I’ve been here for about 6 months now. I didn’t mention during the interview that I was homeless or writing a book, fearing it might hurt my chances of being hired. They Googled me and found out anyway. They still gave me a chance. Not only do they pay the bills, but I love them and I love my job. I lost a fiancé. Well, life’s never perfect, is it? Then again, things have gotten so busy, who has the time or patience for romance? On the nights and weekends and wherever I can in between, I keep advocating for homeless individuals and other social causes close to my heart. A friend in Ireland and I co-founded World Homeless Action Day last year, which partnered with fellow social issues groups such as Food Not Bombs and boasted participation in over 100 countries (we’re hoping to increase that even more this year, and trying to figure out what direction to take the grass-roots organization from here on). My publisher, Harlequin Nonfiction, has been kind enough to send me to various areas not only to promote The Girl’s Guide to Homelessness, but to speak for various homeless organizations and conferences about searching for solutions to all homelessness.
Because of Harlequin and the book deal, I’m also getting to travel and see places that I would never otherwise be able to afford to visit. My 9-5 employer has been more than generous, supportive, and flexible about allowing me to use my vacation time to fly off on short notice to do a book signing or speak to a homeless coalition. I’m working on being permanently re-housed sometime in the next two months. People often express surprise that there’s no definite conclusion yet, no Cinderella ending, despite the media buzz and writing a book and etc. To which I respond: Dude, if you only knew. It’s all a lot of hard work and a process and a steady climb with no promises or certainties at the end of it, but you know what? It’s a nice change to be overwhelmed with work for once after searching for it for two years and finding none. So hell, I’ll take it. Most homeless people aren’t given the opportunities that I have been. They don’t get handed an internship or a book deal. There’s a lot of frantic pedaling just to stay in place, never mind move forward. If I can in any way channel this experience into a platform for them to tell their own stories (and there are millions of them!); challenge stereotypes and prejudices and preconceived notions…that’s what I want to do. Through the opportunities that E. Jean Carroll and ELLE initially opened up for me, I’ve discovered a passion in helping people a making a difference, no matter how small, in the world. What more can a girl ask for? -Brianna Karp

- Here are some more photos from the set of Gossip Girl. We just can't wait for this next season, mainly so we can fantasize about Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford. We also can't wait to see Elizabeth Hurley work her magic on the Upper East Side!

They’re on-screen enemies, but Rupert Grint literally hearts his co-star Tom Felton, who plays the evil Draco to Rupert’s lovable Ron in the Harry Potter series—or so he told the world via a DIY shirt at last night’s The Rise of the Planet of the Apes premiere. Now that’s what we like to call a true bromance: makeshift graphic tees—plus 100 points. Rupert and Tom aren’t the only male celebs who are total BFFLs. In fact, despite the constant break-ups and make-ups of Hollywood’s hot couples, there are lots of male-male relationships that have stood the test of time like only true bromances could. Check out our favorite famous dudes who aren’t afraid to admit their love for their best guy friends:

- We spotted Nicky Hilton out and about in Hollywood yesterday and we're a bit torn on her outfit. We LOVE the sweater, we like the shorts, we're not crazy about the shoes. Do you think it works or does it look like a train wreck? Vote and let us know!
