Rachel Bilson is expecting her first child with longtime boyfriend Hayden Christensen. The two met in 2007 on the set of “Jumper” (a flop from what I can remember) and split up once in 2010, but reconciled three months after. The two have been together ever since. This is the first child for the both of them. I was still secretly holding out for a Rachel Bilson / Adam Brody reunion, but with him just getting married to Blair and her pregnant, I guess this just isn’t happening for us!

In. Real. Life.
So Leighton Meester is pretty much the luckiest girl ever because let’s be real – Adam Brody is the best catch and Rachel Bilson is not really winning with Hayden Christenson. Two of my favorite characters from television series are engaged to be married and I’m slightly miffed, but also moreso thrilled for the two of them. I can already imagine that the wedding is going to be nothing short of amazing. The two have been dating for less than a year. I actually heard the rumors about this swirling last night, but it has now been confirmed.

Slowing down your computers…one image at a time. I was planning on saving this post until next year, but it’s been 3 months since the last collection! I didn’t think it would be fair. Also, I’m pretty sure that these pictures sum up my last fall quarter perfectly. Enjoy!

Weezer’s new album Hurley will be released on September 14, 2010. The picture above of Hurley from LOST is actually the album cover. How fitting! Rivers Cuomo says of the image, “I just loved this photo of Jorge Garcia — it just had this amazing vibe. We didn’t want to do a fourth self-titled record and we knew people would refer to it as ‘the Hurley record’ even if left it without that title, so we just called it ‘Hurley.’ No words are on the cover because all we wanted was his amazing face.” [source]
