Ashley Tisdale’s Birthday Getaway Plans
Back in Los Angeles following the recent filming of “High School Musical 3″, Ashley Tisdale was spotted out and about on Tuesday morning (July 1).
The High School Musical hottie kicked her day off with a coffee and muffin run, then heading to the Fashion Square in Sherman Oaks.
According to a source on the scene, Tisdale shopped around in Macy’s and Sunglass Hut - where she picked up a brand new pair of stylish shades.
When asked what she has planned for her 23rd birthday (which is tomorrow - July 2) and the Fourth of July, Ashley answered: “I’m going on vacation.”
McCready Not McReady to Stay Out of Jail
Another familiar refrain for Mindy McCready.
The arrest-prone country songbird was busted in Tennessee Monday night after turning herself in for probation violation.
A spokesman for the Williamson County Sheriff’s Department told News the singer was held for just a few hours and released later that night.
The sheriff’s department issued a warrant for her arrest after it was discovered the singer was not making good on her order of community service.
McCready was released after posting bond and appeared in court to face the charge Tuesday morning, when her attorney filed a motion to reduce her number of public service hours.
She’s been down this road before.
McCready served five months in Williamson County Jail last year on a probation violation charge for falsifying a prescription. Upon her December release, she was sentenced to two more years of probation.
She’s due back in court July 8.
Rachel Bilson Gets Her Shopping Fix
Rachel Bilson Gets Her Shopping Fix
Getting a much-needed shopping fix, Rachel Bilson was spotted in the Meatpacking district of New York City on Tuesday morning (June 17).
Accompanied by a guy pal, the former OC babe combed the racks at shops including Alexander McQueen, Butik and Jeffery before taking a break for a bite to eat.
In related news, Rachel’s box office hit “Jumper” just came out on DVD a week ago - and she’s been busily interviewing as part of her press duties.
Recently chatting with the AP, Rachel revealed that she felt a little uncomfortable filming love scenes with co-star-turned-boyfriend Hayden Christensen in the sci-fi thriller.
“It’s always awkward and hard to film love scenes, it’s so unnatural, and it’s mechanical,” she said. “Actually Doug [Liman, director] made it very free and we went with it - and a shot of alcohol always helps ease the nerves.”
Despite the uneasiness, Rachel added that she had a wonderful time making the film with Hayden, Jamie Bell and Samuel L Jackson.
“It was so fantastic, the whole experience,” she said. “We all became close friends, but I also respect all of them as actors so I got to learn things from them. I was very fortunate.”
Jessica Simpson: Country Girl in the Big City
Jessica Simpson: Country Girl in the Big City
Following a late night arrival in the Big Apple, Jessica Simpson and her mother Tina were spotted up bright and early on Tuesday morning (June 10).
And the rising country starlet looked cute in a white top, black jacket and a pair of black short shorts as she exited her hotel.
Regarding her foray into country music, Jessica recently told press, “It’s a spiritual thing for me, like ‘I know God has a plan and a purpose.’ For the first time in my life, I take a lot of pride in my talent and in the record I was able to put together.”
She continued, “With the writers, I felt comfortable opening up, because the only way this opportunity was going to be a great one was to be honest with myself and with them. If I want to be singing it for the rest of my life onstage, I want it to be honest.”
As for her naysayers, Miss Simpson commented, “Maybe they thought that I was just trying to stomp on their ground for a little bit and see what I could do, and then just go back and make another pop record. But I’m planning on making country for the rest of my life, and I don’t want to go back to that other world.”
