Seeing Red with T-Swizzle

14 days to go until the release of Taylor Swift's latest album, Red! Not that I'm counting or anything...

She released the whole list of songs on Good Morning America and here they are!

Bonus

14. Everything Has Changed 15. Starlight 16. Begin Again

If 22 is as good as Fifteen, I'm very excited! Well, actually I'm very excited anyway! Interesting that she previewed Begin Again, when it's only a bonus track for the deluxe version. Though I'm happy at this, because I wasn't wild for it. I wonder which boys she is singing about on this album... Any guesses?

The New Normal is filled with Glee

While I'm saving most new shows to watch in bulk on October 14 so I can weed out the ones I want to watch and the ones to pretend didn't air, I couldn't resist watching the first few episodes of The New Normal.

Remember back when Glee first started and it was hilariously politically incorrect? That's The New Normal. Hopefully it won't turn all mushy and accepting and patronizing like Glee, though I have to say I'm thoroughly enjoying the new season of Glee!

Probably the best character is the incredibly racist and homophobic grandma - finger's crossed she won't leave the show or worse become PC. While hilarious, it's still a heartwarming plotline, a single mom wanting to earn some money for law school becomes a surrogate for a gay couple and they become one happy family - the new normal you might say.

Verdict is still out the on the daughter... Weird or sweet?

Pretty little lies spread into 2013

Yay Pretty Little Liars has been renews for season four! Even though I'm a wimp and can't watch this show at night (it should be rated R, it's terrifying!), I thoroughly enjoy it during the day at the weekends!

Set to air later next year, the full 24-episode order is set to be amazing. It was exciting enough to find out that Mona was 'A' but last season left us knowing that Toby was apparently in on it too! Spencer should have stayed together with that tennis club guy for sure.

Will this season finally be the one where they conquer A?

Taylor Swift announces new album and first single

                      During a live chat last night, Taylor Swift announced that her new album is being released on October 22!

She has called her fourth album Red, because she was seeing 'red' when she wrote it. In her online announcement, she explained, 'All the different emotions that are written about on this album are all pretty much about the kind of tumultuous, crazy, insane, intense, semi-toxic relationships that I’ve experienced in the last two years. All those emotions - spanning from intense love, intense frustration, jealousy, confusion, all of that - in my mind, all those emotions are red. You know, there’s nothing in between. There’s nothing beige about any of those feelings.'

She also hints at another world tour - oh yes please!!!

Who is excited for October 22? Who downloaded her single (number on on ITunes already!) last night?

Celebrity endorsements that don't exist... but should!

By Jennifer McKenzie (@ImJeej)

I swear that, back in the day, it wasn’t always so common for celebrities to endorse brands. But now it seems that you’re not really a celebrity if you don’t have your own fragrance, clothing line, breakfast cereal or cushion collection (JT, I’m talking about you), then you just haven't made it.

But are they really choosing the right brands? I think not.

Here are some celebrity endorsements that don’t exist, but totally should!

Miley Cyrus - Tourism Montana. Her alter ego is/was Hannah Montana, esp now she has her very own blonde hair. The northern state missed a trick there.

Shailene Woodley - Jergens moisturiser. A no-brainer, she plays Amy Jergens on her hit ABC Family show The Secret Life of the American Teenager.

Aly Raisman��– Reisen candy. Surely she needs a sugar high to have that much energy for all that tumbling and spinning?

Kel Mitchell - Fanta. Well, he does love orange soda. (And no, he isn’t dead!)

Nicholas Braun - The Prom star should have his own line of Braun shavers. The clue’s in his last name…

Taylor Swift – She is known for her huge collection of sparkily dresses, yet she doesn’t have her own line of clothes. What is up with that? What would be even better is if she designed her own collection of wedding dresses, seeing as she’s so obsessed with love (and dresses!). She should call Alfred Angelo and see if they can collaborate on some more Disney wedding dresses, or even prom dresses!

McKayla Maroney – The Vault music channel, seeing as that’s why she’s so famous (the vault that is, not for cheesy pop music).

Cory Monteith - Monteith’s beer. I had to check if he was old enough to drink before suggesting this. He’s 30, erm, wtf? A beer endorsement is exactly what he needs to get rid of his young image! Or a beard to hide his baby face.

Sophia Bush – Since she’s like, sooo into the environment and her last name is bush, why does this girl not have her own line of plants? It makes literally no sense.

Kate Middleton – Everyone adores her and her love of high street brands. Well I’d like to see her designing a line of tiaras for Debenhams. The perfect mix of royalty and ‘normal’.

Kristin Cavallari – Since she’s practically the only former member of The Hills not to have her own clothing range, and as she’s just given birth, I’d like to see her create a line of baby clothes for Roberto Cavalli (yes because the names are similar, they are practically family).

What celebrity endorsements would you like to see?

USA's gymnastics team has been attracting a huge amount of press coverage this week, mainly because they are awesome. But Gabby in particular as she won the All-Around Individual Gold Medal last night!

Did you know that her surname, Douglas, is an anagram of USA Gold?
