Prom is one of the most memorable events of a lifetime. The coming of age, teenage dream is a stand out because it is created with careful strategy. From finding the perfect dress to getting your hair and makeup just right, this big night out is pretty major. But, for many, the most important step in prom planning is finding a dream date. Instead of hoping for the right guy to ask you to join him for the special occasion, what if you could flip the script and invite your celebrity crush to the main event?

Let "luck be a lady" on prom night, and check out 5 of the music industry's most prom ready rappers that are worth bypassing your butterflies to get the guts to ask them to prom.


The Canadian cutie will be the best prom date you ever had. As a budding style stud, the 6-foot charmer has proven that dressing up suits him well on the April 2012 cover of GQ magazine. His good guy image coupled with his mild, mischievous side, makes him both parent and prom date approved. As he puts on your corsage, he'll hum a melodic tune that is just right for the moment, but as you both speed away in his luxury car, he'll blast "The Motto" (YOLO) to get the party started because "You Only Live Once".

DIGGY SIMMONS
As a member of Hip Hop royalty (his father is legendary rapper Joseph "Reverend Run" Simmons of rap group RUN DMC and his uncle is music mogul Russell Simmons), Diggy is guaranteed to be prom prince. Aside from his irresistible smile, respectable and well mannered adds to his resume of date-worthy qualities, which means your parents may extend your curfew because they can trust the jet-setter to be a gentleman. The New Jersey native will also be very loyal because he knows that all the other girls competing for his attention on the dance floor, "they don't do it like" you.

JUSTIN BIEBER
Justin may have a celebrity girlfriend (Selena Gomez) and millions of screaming female fans, but all those awesome obstacles define why he would be the ultimate prom date. His transition from his signature swooped hair to a shorter cropped cut and from singing to dabbling in rapping shows that he embraces change, which can come in handy when you chose a prom color theme other than purple (his favorite hue). The talented teen can also have his people send over his popular perfume and OPI nail polish to make sure you look like his "Favorite Girl."

JADEN SMITH
Will and Jada Smith's handsome son is simply young, fly and fresh. The California cutie is guaranteed to have the best tux at the dance and he'll probably swag it out with some cool sneakers. There's no doubt that the actor turned rapper will pick you up on time. By cutting off his long locks - he shrunk his getting dressed time in half. And since he's best friends with Justin Bieber, you can hook your BFF up with JB for a prom double date. Your crew is sure to get paparazzi coverage in your favorite teen magazines - the best prom photos EVER!

LIL TWIST
The Young Money signee stays as "turnt up" as his sky high hairstyle. Lil Wayne, Drake, Nicki Minaj, and Tyga will all show up for a surprise performance, which will make you go down in prom history. Although he's affiliated with one of the most successful hip hop labels, the YMCMB star remains humble and surprisingly sweet. He'll dance with you all night and hold you close as his slow song "Love Affair" plays on the sound system.

My ideal rapper prom date would be...

Fashion DIY: Music Festival Jean Shorts

$

Filed under: ,

Hey fashionistas! We don't know if you guys are excited for this summer's upcoming music festivals, but we are! Recently our local fashionista Paige Mueller was asked by Doctrine Denim Jeans and No Subject to represent Cambio at Urban Outfitters Space 15Twenty for the 'DIY-Your-Own-Doctrine' event. For this event, seven bloggers were invited to participate in taking a pair of Doctrine jeans and making them into the perfect music festival jean short. Coachella is right around the corner, so we joined in the fun and made a funky pair of jean shorts perfect for jamming out in the desert!

What you will need before recreating these shorts: A pair of jeans, an old scarf you don't care about cutting up, a pair of scissors, bleach, a paint brush, fabric glue, and a piece of chalk.

First step in recreating the shorts above is to take a pair of jeans and measure out the length you want them to be as shorts. Use a piece of chalk, which is easy to erase if you mess up, and draw a line to cut along. Then, grab a pair of scissors and start chopping those legs off!

After you have the shorts at a proper length, you will grab your scarf, and choose a specific pattern you want to display on your back pockets. Place that area on the back pockets, and begin to cut along the pocket line. Do the same for the other side's pocket.

Take your fabric glue and secure the scarf fabric onto the pockets. Let this sit and dry for anywhere between 2-4 hours. Wait at least 24 hours before you wash the shorts (Or read the directions on the bottle of glue you purchase and abide by those).

Once the glue has dried, make sure you put something down to protect the table. Pour the bleach into a bowl and grab your paint brush. We wanted to create an ombre affect by having the bottom of the shorts at almost white and then fade darker as you go up. So go a lot heavier with the bleach along the bottom of your shorts if you like that. Then just paint up until a certain point, and sprinkle the paint brush over the rest of the shorts to create the splatter affect. For safety purposes, you may want to use gloves to insure you don't get bleach on your skin.

Let the shorts sit out and dry for a couple hours. Once dry, take your scissors and begin to rub them along the raw edges of the jean shorts. This will distress the denim quicker to give it a cool cut off look. Once done, wait a day and then throw them in the wash to get the bleach scent off of them. After, toss them in the dryer on low, which will help distress the raw edges more.

You are now ready to go forth and conquer chicly, one musical festival at a time.

Check out Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez's romantic picnic in the park in this video.

Despite Justin hyping his new single 'Boyfriend' and Selena finishing up filming 'Spring Breakers' and moving on to her next project, Jelena still make time for each other.

Justin and Selena were spotted in Los Angeles having a picnic of Subway sandwiches.

(Great advertising for Subway, by the way.)

They munched on their sandwiches at Griffith Park, but unfortunately weren't able to escape the paparazzi.

Sel looked pretty makeup free and casual in ripped jeans and Justin sported a knit hat.

While eating, they snuggled up together and soaked up some sunshine - too cute!

Who needs a fancy restaurant when you've got a couple of subs and each other?

Justin has been busy teasing his 'Boyfriend' music video and giving shouts out to fans on Twitter, and had this to say to fans: "WHAZZABBBIII. #2 DEBUT on BILLBOARD for #BOYFRIEND! CRAZY! #1 SINGLE SALES IN THE WORLD! #1 in 34 COUNTRIES! INSANE!! #ILOVEYOU #THANKU"

He's thankful to all of his supporters, tweeting: "U have all been working so hard 4 the #1 spot on BILLBOARD and so have I. We will get it! #BELIEVE - in the meantime THANK YOU! U R AMAZING"

Justin also reflected a bit on how he got where he is today, telling Twitter followers: "alot has happened since with you on youtube, since one time, since baby, since never say never, and now boyfriend..."

He added, "but something hasnt changed...me and u. not gonna change. #stillkidrauhl. #ilovemyfans #randommomenttosayTHANKS"

Meanwhile, Selena took to Twitter to get fans to #askSELENA questions: "I am making an old school youtube video for you guys and want to answer some of your questions send me your questions with #askSELENA"

We can't wait to see that video!

Ally Katzz Blog: A Girl Who Rocks

Hi Cambio Readers!

I am so excited to introduce you to my good friend, Tammy Tibbetts, the founder of one of my favorite non-profits, She's the First!

What is She's The First?

She's the First is a non-profit organization that sponsors girls' education in the developing world, so that they can be the first in their families to graduate secondary school. We partner with sponsorship programs in eight countries, which you can learn all about on shesthefirst.org. Our direct impact is on students in the U.S. -- like you! -- who participate in our national fundraising campaigns, such as cupcake bake sales, a rock concert, and poetry performances, all of which teach you how to be a leader, plan events, express yourself, and use social media tools to make a profound social impact.

Why were you inspired to start She's The First?

My passion for girls' education began when I visited Liberia in 2007 with another foundation, to meet children in their sponsorship program. We organized a Christmas party for 300 orphans, who came dressed in their best outfits for the occasion. I remember one little girl dressed in what used to be another girl's Disney princess Halloween costume. I brought a bag of Starbursts with me and quickly learned it wasn't enough-more empty hands extended toward me than I could fill. The former camp counselor in me was amazed that there wasn't a single fight to resolve. I saw how their gratitude for the basics in life could so easily be kindled into a fire for learning.

I volunteered with this foundation for two years. My friends could see how passionate I was about the cause and wanted to get involved, but the tickets to our fundraising galas were too expensive for them, and they wanted to see the direct impact of their contributions. I then realized I could apply the skills from my day job--I was a prom website editor for Seventeen and had just launched DonateMyDress.org--to create a directory of school sponsorship programs, where you could help a girl to break barriers so she could be "the first" to graduate. Who knows, from there she might become the first female president of her country, just like Ellen Johnson Sirleaf of Liberia was the first female president in all of Africa! She's the First was born in 2009, originally as a YouTube video starring JoJo and some young women in Boston, with the simple message to gather your friends and online networks to sponsor a girl. The response to that video was enormous! She's the First has since grown into a 501c3 non-profit organization that has sponsored more than 200 girls in eight countries.

What has been the biggest lesson you're learned from running She's The First?

I'm learning something new every day! In a practical sense, I'm learning how to fundraise for operational expenses to sustain our rapidly growing organization, which is much more difficult than the grassroots fundraising for girls' sponsorships. You have to learn how to marry the skills of good business with the gift of storytelling when you are running a non-profit. The biggest lesson I'm still learning is how to be a strong leader. You can only do so much yourself and when you are the founder, you have a natural tendency to want to do everything! But for the organization to grow, you have to learn how to recruit talented people, delegate tasks, recognize the contributions of others, and raise up a team effort.

Do you have three tips to help young people in America make a difference in the lives of the girls you serve?

There are easy ways to get involved with She's the First!

One, you can use your social media -- spread the message of our brand-new PSA video, which teaches people how to help us sponsor girls' education

Two, you can organize a bake sale to sponsor a girl! We're famous for our tie-dye cupcakes, which students make all year-round but in full force during our National Tie-Dye Cupcake Bake-Off in November. Third, if you want to get really involved, you can start a She's the First club/chapter at your school! You can learn more about that at www.shesthefirst.org/campus.

I'll throw in a fourth--we're always looking for students in the U.S. to send notes of encouragement and stories about your life in the U.S. to students we sponsor abroad. You can leave comments for many of them here.

How can we stay connected with you and She's The First online?

We want to be where you are! We're on all the big social networks: "Like" us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, reblog us on Tumblr, re-pin us on Pinterest, watch us on YouTube or Vimeo. And, of course, shesthefirst.org.

'Chasing the Sun' Lyrics:

"I'm better, so much better now
I see the lights touch the light
Were together now

I'm better, so much better now
Look to the skies
Give me life
Were together now

We've only just begun
Hypnotized by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun

They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun

When the daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
Till it's golden again

And now it feels so amazing
Can see you coming
And we'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun

I'm never, I'm never down
Lying here staring up
And you're looking down
I'm never, I'm never down
Live forever, forever
With you around

We've only just begun
Hypnotized by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun

They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun

When the daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
Till it's golden again

And now it feels so amazing
Can see you coming
And we'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun"

TOMS

Rachel Bilson is just one celebrity joining in TOMS "One Day Without Shoes" cause on April 10, as she's seen in this exclusive Cambio photo.

The TOMS "One Day Without Shoes" campaign gets the support of celebrities every year (check out this Cambio video from last year to see who was involved), who join the effort to raise awareness about children in need of shoes.

This year, the "One Day Without Shoes" event includes Bilson, Armie Hammer, Heather Morris, Chris Pine, Gillian Zinser, and Julia Jones, along with many others, who will go without shoes on April 10.

TOMS asks that you go barefoot for the day to support the "One Day Without Shoes" effort, with the goal to get people to be involved and thinking about how to make the world better.

TOMS' founder and chief shoe giver Blake Mycoskie created the One for One shoe concept, explaining that "with every pair of shoes someone purchases, a pair of new shoes will be given to a child in need."

Mycoskie explained the One Day Without Shoes campaign: "This movement is about raising awareness and asking people to do something - anything - without shoes. We are so eager to see the world's participation this year. So, do what you normally do - just without shoes and help start the conversation."

The press release explains: "On Tuesday, April 10, TOMS will ask the world to go without shoes for its annual One Day Without Shoes event. This is the day each year that TOMS raises awareness of the impact a pair of shoes can have on a child's life. Last year, people went without shoes at over 1,000 events in over 25 countries around the globe."

TOMS asks everyone to participate, noting that taking off your shoes can raise awareness about the millions of children who are exposed to injury and disease because they don't have proper footwear.

Visit OneDayWithoutShoes.com for updates, event information, and an event tool kit. You can also stay connected through the One Day Without Shoes mobile application for iPhone and Android.

Miley Cyrus recently posted a Facebook status about her involvement in the TOMS event, writing: "I'm going without shoes on April 10th so kids don't have to. Join me: www.onedaywithoutshoes.com"

Exclusive: Carly Rae Jepsen Opens Up About Justin Bieber, Dating and 'Hunger Games'

Carly Rae Jepsen Twitter

So what's it like being a female artist signed to Justin Bieber and Scooter Braun's record label? Well, Carly Rae Jepsen knows a little bit about that...

After placing third on Canadian Idol in 2007 and releasing music after the show, it was Carly's single "Call Me Maybe," that caught the attention of fellow Canadian Justin Bieber. To make a long story short, earlier this year, Bieber along with Scooter Braun, signed her to their label, Schoolboy Records.

We had a chance to chat to the Canadian newcomer and she opened up about Bieber, 'Hunger Games', and of course music.

Dying to know if she hangs out with The Biebs now that she's a part of his team, it was disappointing to hear that they actually don't hang out all of the time like we assumed.

"He just seems like a chill, down-to-earth guy. I met him at the studio and I could see that he is who is for a reason. He's so talented, he blows my mind. But no, I don't hang with him a lot," she said.

Okay, so they aren't BFFs...yet, BUT we were curious if he tried hooking her up with any of his pals yet. You know how he is, Justin loves to play cupid via Twitter, just ask Kendall Jenner! But nope, nothing like that with Carly, plus she tell us, she has a boyfriend! Aww!

It was interesting to find out that she actually doesn't have a TV. Yep, a girl who was on Canadian Idol, doesn't even watch TV. (Although that could be a good thing because said told us jokingly that just hearing the music from that show still gives her heart murmurs.) The no TV thing isn't by choice though. Her roomie moved out and took the TV so she just hasn't gotten around to getting another one. Give her a break, she is working on music and all!

Still in the midst of trying to be a normal 26-year-old, doing shows and working on her own music, Carly admitted that she's a book lover. So, you know we had to ask about The Hunger Games...

"I haven't seen the movie yet but the books were amazing. It's going to be hard to top those. I'm totally team Peeta."

So are we Carly, so are we.

Being from Canada, she has began to love American radio and admits that she's really diggin' The Wanted and Fun. right now. She grew up listening to oldies and admires Joni Mitchell.

Girl's got good taste!

Overall, Carly gets our approval! It seems like Scooter and Bieber have a good asset on their Schoolboy team. It'll be exciting to see what Carly Rae Jepsen has in store for us and the music world. If we know Scooter and Justin like we think we do, she's in perfect hands and will get that "world tour she always dreamed of" and much more.

You can check out Carly on tour this summer or peep her video below. Beware, the song will get stuck in your head!

The Wanted Twitter


Watch The Wanted on 'American Idol,' singing their hit, 'Glad You Came,' in this video clip.

The Wanted worked the 'Idol' stage, giving their screaming fans quite a show and even sneaking in a kiss on the lovely Jennifer Lopez!

The girls went wild for The Wanted, who worked the stage and around the judges' table, gave the camera some smolder and shot off a few confetti canons (who doesn't love confetti?).

Sadly, Ryan Seacrest didn't give them a chance to talk - you know, they had to stick to the business at hand.

'Glad You Came' is the second single from their 'Battleground' album.

Following their 'American Idol' performance, the guys took to Twitter to share their excitement: "Wow. What an amazing experience. Thank you to everyone who watched us on @AmericanIdol #TheWantedonIdol"

The Wanted also shared some photos of themselves with Jennifer Lopez, and Randy Jackson, writing:

"Massive thank you to @JLo for the hospitality. You are a superstar. Video is amazing! #thewantedonidol"

"Us with @IamStevenT and @YO_RANDYJACKSON. Great meeting you lads! #thewantedonidol"

They thanked their fans again for checking out their 'Idol' performance, tweeting: "Thank you to everyone who tuned in tonight... that was the most unbelievable experience to date #TheWantedOnIdol"

Earlier this week, The Wanted visited Canada and stopped by MuchMusic studios to play a little kissing game.

One lucky fan had the experience of a lifetime, as she was blindfolded and kissed by each guy, and had to guess which one was doing the smooching.

She was pretty good at guessing their kisses, by touching their hair! For Jay, she guessed him by his "smell." Huh?

Check out the video below - she guessed them all right... impressive!

Justin Bieber and One Direction Collaborating? Get the Real Story.

One Direction Twitter

There was a lot of excitement yesterday over the possibility of a Justin Bieber and One Direction collaboration.

We've sorted through the Bieber/1D rumors and have the truth for you... there won't be a collaboration between these mega musical forces right now.

The rumors got their legs after Niall Horan tweeted: "In the studio with our boy @justinbieber last night. It's gonna sound great!"

That sounds pretty legit, right?

Turns out the boys were just listening to Justin's new album, as Liam Payne tweeted: "Got a first listen to Justin Bieber's new album yesterday wowww big songs!!! It's gunna be a smash ... Expect the unexpected :O."

Justin replied: "@Real_Liam_Payne Thanks buddy. Good chillin with u guys."

One Direction and Justin Bieber won't be working together though, with GossipCop.com clearing up the rumors and sharing what Justin's rep said, "They just came by the studio and heard some of the album 'Believe.'"

They're not in the studio working together, as some websites reported, but maybe there will be a future Justin Bieber and One Direction song?

Justin's manager, Scooter Braun, tweeted the possibility on March 10: "very possible. he likes them and thinks they are good dudes. all people of that generation should be there to help EACHOTHER"

Justin Bieber, is, however, collaborating with Carly Rae Jepsen, as she told MTV News recently about their time in the studio:

"We collaborated on one song together, but in general, I was blown away by Justin. He's so down-to-earth and very charming and very talented. It's still a little top-secret, but it's going to be coming out soon, I hope."

She added, "It's a really lovely song. The way he presented it was pretty cool. It was my first time meeting him. I was at the studio, and he basically just said, 'What do you think of this song?' and I was like, 'Wow, I love it.' "

The Justin and Carly Rae duet is "pretty stripped-down," she explained, adding, "It's pretty casual. It's not too dance-y; it's more intimate. It's a duet."

99% of the world isn't born filthy rich. We have to get a bit creative to channel our inner Victoria Beckham on a tight budget. If you're a material girl living in a material world, but your wallet is more super broke and less super mogul, here are 5 ways to look like a Hollywood heiress with limited funds.

DIAMONDS (FAUX) - If you're a diamond in the rough, fake it 'til you make it. The naked eye of your young friends or a passerby at the mall doesn't have the super powers to determine the color, cut and clarity of the studs in your ears. So go faux to get the most bang for your buck. They dress up any outfit in an instant. Score some inexpensive bling at your nearest department store. If you have sensitive skin, make sure that the cubic zirconias you choose are nested in a sterling silver or white gold casing and backing.

RED LIPSTICK - Take a cue from celebrity stylist June Ambrose. Red lips are not only haute, but they scream that you have a credit card and you're not afraid to use it. The "Styled by June" reality TV star swears by MAC's Ruby Woo lipstick. A quick swipe of the lip color along with her signature shades makes the style architect look glam on the go. To find your favorite shade, play around at your local, department store makeup counter and get help from an on site
makeup artist to determine the best shade for your skin tone.

FUR (FAUX) - "If you ain't got no money", you don't have to take your broke behind home. A faux fur vest is not only animal friendly, but rocking one will make you look like the most "glamorous" girl in the room.

LOW BUN (aka Chignon) - This elegant up-do is very modern and perfect for those who want to look like a glam goddess. Simply slick your hair into a sleek ponytail at the nape of your neck, twist your hair around the ponytail and secure with bobby pins. To take the look up a notch, check out this tutorial.

WEAR WHITE - Luxurious ladies know that this colorless hue screams chic. A pair of skinny jeans in the "mature" color can be dressed up with wedges or jeweled flats. Add a dressy jewel toned top and a statement necklace and you're set to go window shopping on 5th Avenue.

PEARLS (FAUX) - Just like the deceptive diamonds, no one can tell that
these are fake either. The ivory gems are classic and really dress up a casual outfit. Stack a few strands on top of a black scoop neck tee to channel Coco Chanel.

Zac Efron Twitter

Zac Efron couldn't be less hot if he tried.

With a million dollar smile and a red hot career, Zac has shot straight to the top.

On 'The Tonight Show with Jay Leno', Zac dished on one of his "favorite things to do in the world!"

Can you guess what it is?

Bungee jumping!

Watch as Zac Efron explain his love of bungee jumping, talks about his job as an actor, and shares the one thing his grandma won't let him do.

When he has time off, he's into hiking, he explains:

"If I get a weekend off or something like that, something that I like to do is get out into the wilderness. I like to go backpacking and hiking.

Actually, a couple of weekends ago a couple of buddies of mine got together and we took like a five mile hike and we went to this place called the Bridge to Nowhere. And then we went bungee jumping."

"Off the Bridge to Nowhere?" Leno asked, "That just has death written all over it."

Zac admitted, "Yeah, they kind of messed themselves up with the title a little bit, didn't they?"

Apparently a "dude" was there to facilitate the jump and Zac said, "It was unreal! Bungee jumping is one of my favorite things to do in the world."

He also likes surfing - or tries to surf, anyway, saying, "I have so much respect for surfers" when he talks about the challenges of the sport.

There's one thrill-seeking activity his grandma won't let him do, however - ride a motorcycle! He did apologize to his grandma for the bungee jumping though. So cute.

Zac talks about his career, sharing that he loves to work: "I've got the best job in the world. I'm not really complaining. I think I got a great thing going."

We'll say.

Zac next appears on screen in the romantic film 'The Lucky One,' in theaters on April 20.

His role as a Marine gave him a "new found respect" for what they do, calling them "real life heroes."

As you all know, Jason Derulo is no longer solo! That's right ladies, his heart has been taken by the talented Jordin Sparks. The two are making it work long distance. Jason is currently in Miami recording, and Jordin takes any time she can to fly out from Pheonix. Apparently the two have been dating for a long time and have been trying to keep the press out of their business. But with Jason's recent accident, he has a new outlook on life, and I guess that includes coming clean about his relationship status.

It has been said the Jason calls Jordin his "backbone" and that she has been especially supportive in his time of recovery.

In terms of his new album and collaborating with Jordin, Jason tells us they have "done a couple of things thus far...I'm hoping she can be on my record." Are you guys loving this new musical couple?!

Ironically, Jason is also currently working at his girlfriend's old stomping grounds American Idol on a his new song "Undefeated." We asked the singer which Idol judge he would most like to collaborate with, and he gave a very politically correct answer. Check out the video to hear Jason's opinions on Jennifer Lopez, Randy Jackson, and Steven Tyler.

Jennifer Lopez's new 'Dance Again' music video debuted during 'American Idol' last night and it's beyond sexy.

JLo literally sparkles, as her skin glimmers with gold glitter - she's gorgeous!

Plus, Jennifer and dancer Casper Smart steam up the screen with their hot moves, which Ryan Seacrest joked about when introducing the 'Dance Again' video: "Is there any special chemistry with you and any of the dancers?"

JLo kept her comments low-key, noting, "It's fun and dancy and full of joy."

Yep, there's a lot of super sultry joy going on there. And we love it.

In a recent interview with Ryan Seacrest, JLO explained the song's message:

"I love the message of the song. That when something bad happens, your life is not over. You have to get up. You're gonna live. You're gonna to be okay. You're gonna dance again."

She also explained why she released a song now, sharing, "I think when it came to me it was the perfect moment. I definitely related to that. I think it's a good thing to put it out there right now, because everybody goes through tough moments. Everybody goes through hard times, and I am no stranger to that myself. So to even hear the demo of the song. Actually, we re-wrote some of the lyrics to fit in to that message."

How long will Jennifer continue to serve as a judge on 'American Idol'? She tells Seacreast, "When something is just meant to be it just starts happening. I kind of go with that flow for everything in my life. I know that this is what I am meant to do. I just don't know what the next thing is going to be. I kind of try and go with what feels right."

As for her relationship with Casper, Jennifer recently told Vogue that he's "adorable" and "a good egg," adding, "I don't want to talk about it too much. It's my private thing."

Let's hope she gets to maintain that privacy, something that seems extra hard when you're the world's most beautiful woman.

Don't drink and drive kids!

Former Nickelodeon star, Amanda Bynes was arrested for driving under the influence early this morning in West Hollywood, after she wrecked her car into a marked police car.

Nope, we didn't make that up...

Probably drinking and partying to celebrate her 26th birthday, which was earlier this week (happy belated Amanda), she was released later this morning on $5,000 bail. When leaving the jail this A.M., Amanda had no comment when paps asked her if she learned her lesson.

We hope she did learn her lesson and are just happy that no one got hurt.

Ally Katzz Blog: Get To Know 'MTV Act'

MTV

Hi Cambio Readers,

This week I am psyched to introduce you to one of my favorite pro-social hot spots on the Interwebz, MTV Act!

What is MTV Act?

MTV Act is where fist-pumping and lending a helping hand collide. We're all about celebrating what young people are doing to make the world a better place - from anti-bullying projects to college affordability. We also spotlight the actions your favorite singers/actors/guidos are taking to make a difference, too!

My favorite thing about the blog is that it's more than just a blog. I'll explain. Every blog posts ends with 1 or 2 ways to support whatever action that post is about. So it's also a great place to go to not only be in the know about issues, but get involved. Every action counts!

How did you get involved in MTV Act and why are you passionate about social good?

Well, social good and I go wayyyy back.

At 13, I was one of 2,000 youth from around the world honored by UNESCO (and Disney & McDonald's) as a Millennium Dreamer. They flew all 2,000 of us in to DisneyWorld in Florida, honored us in front of our families and all these world leaders - and all I was doing was taking small easy actions in my community!

I volunteered with the elderly, fundraised to build a teen center in my hometown, helped out at the local soup kitchen - things like that. In college, I organized a group of students to travel to south L.A. every week to build a mutual relationship with the young students there. Again, I was just having fun, doing my thing, and L.A. County recognized me as 'Volunteer of the Year.' I enjoyed doing that! And still enjoy doing that! But my career goal was always to work in the music industry. So... here I am! Associate Editor of MTV Act. We were made for each other. I've always had fun with social good, and I was good at organizing young people to have fun with it, too. And with MTV Act, I get my dose of J-Lo, too.

What has been the biggest lesson you're learned from being a part of the MTV Act team?

YOUNG PEOPLE ARE AMAZING! Don't know how else to say that, but like that. I had the privilege to go to the White House a few weeks ago to celebrate the 'Campus Champions of Change.' Wow. Those students were so brilliant, selfless, thoughtful...just great. They're going places!

Do you have three tips to help young people in America make a difference and find their passion?

1. Do your thing. Do what you love. Some things aren't for everyone, and there's no one way to do something, so follow your own path, your own love and passion, and just do your thing. You'll get there.

2. There are no limits, only excuses! You can do anything you put yourself to - anything - until you let the 'ifs' 'ands' or 'buts' get in the way. You don't like the fact that your classmates are picking on each other? Change it. Because you can. (See: WeStopHate.org)

3. Every action counts. You don't have to start a revolution - but often, small ideas and small actions can lead to them. So think very small or think very big, it'll have some impact.

How can we stay connected with you and MTV Act online?

I'm on Twitter and also tweet for MTV Act, so follow there too! If you have something you'd like to see featured on MTV Act, we want to hear from you. Email us at act@mtv.com, or tweet us.

Filed under: ,

Our resident "fashionista" Paige Mueller was recently asked by the team of (No Subject) and Doctrine Denim to take a pair of their jeans and create a music festival inspired pair of jean shorts. The shorts she created made a pretty big splash at the event, at which we were able to chat with the designer at Doctrine Denim, Teresa Sung, as well as Johnny Pinto, the marketing director of Doctrine and the man behind "The Denim Guy" blog.

Chelsea Matthews, the co-founder of (No Subject) was also available to give us her opinion on what's hot in fashion trends for this summer.

The event was hosted by the talented and fashionable blogger Jazzy McG, of http://www.jazzimcg.com/, who presented her own pair for people to emulate. There were some lucky people on hand to DIY there own pair of jean shorts there, and we were so inspired we might do a second pair of shorts!

We have to say, while we may be biased, we were def feeling our own Paige Mueller's shorts most of all! What do you guys think of them? How would you DIY your own jean shorts?

For more info on any of the people in the video or the jeans, follow the links below:
