Alexandra Capotorto in the business of writing pop culture-y stuff for two reasons: Britney Spears and Johnny Depp, one to befriend, the other to reproduce with. Figure that out yourselves. Her friends have dubbed her their official "Walking Encyclopedia of Celebrity Knowledge," which she thrives on and abuses to not-so-subconsciously inflate her own ego. Her only regret in life is not getting to E! before Giuliana Rancic and Chelsea Handler, because the latter essentially stole her identity - but they're cool now. Kind of. She's convinced that she could simultaneously win 'The Voice' and an Academy Award in a one year time period, given her fantastic shower-singing and ability to over-dramatize everything, but she'll settle for being a writer. Key word being "settle." She's sarcastic and witty, and takes nothing and no one seriously. She recites lines from movies mid-conversation much to the dismay of her "friends" - but at least she gives them someone to talk about afterward. Most importantly, she holds a B.A. in Print Journalism from Quinnipiac University, but only because her parents forced her to go. She would've preferred slumming it in Beverly Hills as Britney Spears' assistant/BFF.

Katy Perry and John Mayer really are dating, you guys! The couple were spotted out with Mayer's father, Richard, in N.Y.C.

What do you get when you mix Selena Gomez, a few of her friends, and her BFF Taylor Swift's new single? A video by Gomez + Co., of course!
After Taylor Swift and Harry Styles performed at Z100's Jingle Ball last week, the two jetted off to London on her private jet, leaving his One Direction bandmates a little peeved, but surely leaving Ms. Swift happy to have some quality time with her man.
Ed Sheeran is using good will (and equally impressive pipes) to bring some joy to children this holiday season. Coming off his high of being nominated for a Grammy for his song 'The A-Team' and performing with Taylor Swift at Z100's annual Jingle Ball concert, Sheeran visited the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia to perform 'Kiss Me.'
With Christmas right around the corner, it's safe to say that a majority of the folks out there will be getting into the spirit with tree decorating, egg nog, awesomely ugly sweaters, and of course, the best Christmas albums popular music has to offer! Who doesn't love a holiday that's filled with comfort, joy and "chestnuts roasting on an open fire"?
We've reached the top of our Best Christmas Albums list! We've crowned Michael Buble the holiday king with his 2011 release, simply titled 'Christmas.'
The Jackson 5 'Christmas Album' was the only holiday album released by the quintet waaaay back in 1970.
If Mariah Carey's Christmas album 'Merry Christmas' isn't a staple on your holiday playlist, then you best run to your nearest record store (or computer to download on iTunes), and add it ASAP.
