  • 'Twilight Saga: Eclipse' scores 12 Teen Choice Award nominations

    "Twilight Saga: Eclipse" struck out at the Oscars, but the teen vampire movie is the "King's Speech" of the Teen Choice Awards. The pop culture phenomenon about an angsty teen played by Kristen Stewart caught in a love triangle with a vampire (Robert Pattinson) and a werewolf (Taylor Lautner) nabbed 12 TCA nominations.

    "Eclipse" is competing for Choice Movie: Sci-Fi/Fantasy, along with acting, scene stealing and villain awards. However, for the teen set, all that really matters is the Choice Movie: Liplock category, which includes nods for Stewart’s smooches with Pattinson and Lautner.

    Fans, who get to vote for their favorites leading up to the Aug. 7 show, will have to choose between the "Twilight" gang and their old rivals from "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows -- Part 1," another top contender. But Teen Choice isn't just about the sci-fi/fantasy flicks, with a wide range of movies, music and television up for awards too. Scroll through the list to see who's battling it out for a surfboard this year.

    Aren't you a bit overdressed for the butchers? Kelly Brook dons sexy backless dress as she picks up some groceries


    She may have just been stocking up at her local butchers but Kelly Brook clearly intended to impress with her outfit.
    The 31-year-old model donned a sexy turquoise backless dress, usually more suited to a night out in a club, as she popped out for groceries near her Kent home.
    Kelly teamed the skintight dress with a pair of brown sandals and tied her long wavy hair into a half-up, half-down 'do'
    And Gizzi replied: 'If you didn't live in blooming Kent, I'd be over and gatecrashing in a shot!'
    Kelly has been keeping a low profile since tragically losing her baby girl last month.
    She has been recovering at home in Kent with boyfriend Thom Evans and her mother Sandra Parsons.

    However, after coping with one of the most difficult times of their lives, Kelly and Thom decided to jet away from it all on a well-deserved sunshine break in the idyllic Greek island of Mykonos.
    After announcing her pregnancy in March, Kelly admitted it was unplanned but believed she had found 'the one' in 26-year-old Thom - a former teammate of her most recent ex-boyfriend Danny Cipriani.
    She said: 'That is what happens when you are in love - you surrender to whatever is to be. It wasn't a plan, but if it happened, it happened. We were boyfriend and girlfriend.'

    Watch out Bieber! Selena Gomez admits she has a crush on 'handsome' ladies' man Shia LeBeouf

    He may have millions of adoring fans but Justin Bieber might just be jealous that the one girl he wants to go weak at the knees for him, girlfriend Selena Gomez, has a crush on another star.
    The 18-year-old is mad for Transformers star Shia LeBeouf, and she's not afraid to admit it after posting footage of her surprise meeting with the 25-year-old actor on YouTube.
    Gomez' friends tricked the Disney star into going to LeBeouf's dressing room on the pretence she was meeting fans.And despite her fame, Gomez was starstruck and only managed to blurt out 'I'm so sorry to bother you,' before running out of his dressing room.
    But action man LeBeouf chased her down and gave her a hug before posing for pictures with the brunette.
    'Thanks for being so sweet to me,' Shia told Selena. 'You’re really sweet to me.''I admire you,' Selena spluttered, and back in her own dressing room she berated her friends.

    'You guys suck! You used my fans as bait!' she said.
    'He’s so cute…Oh my gosh, he’s so handsome, I’m so embarrassed.”
    Adding, 'Now he thinks I’m crazy!'
    You Guys Suck: An overwhelmed Gomez lets the encounter sink in

    Gomez posted her video yesterday and titled it Meeting Shia, with the caption 'best day ever.'
    You can only wonder what Bieber thinks about it, as he was today still patiently following his lady on the promotional trail for her new movie and album.

    Don’t make a boob on the beach! Can’t find a bikini that flatters the fuller figure? We’ve got the answer.


    For millions of British women, summer brings the year’s most dreaded task, one that has us hastily shunning the biscuit tin and attempting sit-ups on the bathroom floor. You’ve guessed it: bikini shopping.
    Exposing your body in mere wisps of fabric under harsh changing-room lighting can panic even the hardiest shoppers. 
    Before you even think about hitting the High Street, consider getting a spray tan to eradicate that British winter pallor. 
    If you’re endowed with a pair of particularly voluptuous assets, it can become an even bigger ordeal. However, if you learn a few simple rules, you really CAN find beachwear to flatter even the bustiest figure.
    Or, better still, tackle the job online so you can try out bikinis at home where you’re the one in control of both the lighting and mirrors — tilt your mirror away from you rather than hang it flat on the wall for a better view.
    It’s a relief for all of us, whether you’re small-bottomed and large-chested (or vice versa), that the High Street has finally cottoned on to the fact that girls of all shapes and sizes go on beach holidays. 
    This year, S, M and L sizing has been booted out in favour of individual bra sizes by the most popular stores, such as Next, H&M, Marks & Spencer and La Senza — but they all sell non bra-sized options too.
    Yes, you will still come across unnecessary over-padding and ill-fitting briefs aplenty, but you can also unearth some real gems — at very attractive prices.

    U.S. drone targets two leaders of Somali group allied with al-Qaeda, official says

    A U.S. drone aircraft fired on two leaders of a militant Somali organization tied to al-Qaeda, apparently wounding them, a senior U.S. military official familiar with the operation said Wednesday.

    The strike last week against senior members of al-Shabab comes amid growing concern within the U.S. government that some leaders of the Islamist group are collaborating more closely with al-Qaeda to strike targets beyond Somalia, the military official said.The airstrike makes Somalia at least the sixth country where the United States is using drone aircraft to conduct lethal attacks, joining Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Iraq and Yemen. And it comes as the CIA is expected to begin flying armed drones over Yemen in its hunt for al-Qaeda operatives.

    Al-Shabab has battled Somalia’s tenuous government for several years. In recent months, U.S. officials have picked up intelligence that senior members of the group have expanded their ambitions beyond attacks in Somalia.

    “They have become somewhat emboldened of late, and, as a result, we have become more focused on inhibiting their activities,” the official said.“They were planning operations outside of Somalia.”

    Both of the al-Shabab leaders targeted in the attack had “direct ties” to American-born cleric Anwar al-Aulaqi, the military official said. Aulaqi escaped a U.S. drone strike in Yemen in May.

    The White House declined Wednesday night to respond to questions about the attack.

    Gaddafi's Female Fighters Are Latest Weapon Against NATO, Rebels

    With Obama insisting the "noose is tightening" around Muammar Gaddafi's regime, the embattled Libyan leader has unveiled a new tactic by which to portray an image of internal solidarity: women at arms.

    As the Guardian is reporting, a government-sanctioned "graduation ceremony" for women who had been given weapons training in defense of the regime was held in the town of Bani Walid. Invited and escorted by government minders, the journalists arrived to find 500 women of all ages clapping, singing and waving flags in Gaddafi's honor.

    "We love Muammar Gaddafi and we want to save our country," 14-year-old Fatima Hassan is quoted as saying. "He made us happy. He makes us eat and makes the country free to do what we want. Before, we weren't free. My grandparents tell us that before Gaddafi, it was bad, there was no bread. He saved us."

    Though reporters are said to have pondered just how much the event had been stage managed in advance, the images of fearsome-looking Libyan women -- from young teens to grandmothers -- wielding rifles and weapons are nonetheless frightening.
