Hillary Duff on 'Gossip Girl'

3 Jul 2009

Hillary Duff will be joining the cast of "Gossip Girl" in a guest-star appearance.

Duff will play "a movie star looking for a typical college experience" named Olivia Burke. She'll enroll at NYU and room up with Vanessa (Jessice Szohr), the hipster from Brooklyn.

What drama will she cause? Well since she's rooming with V, of course she'll be sparking up a little romance with Dan (Penn Badgley), the aspiring novelist.

"Gossip" returns with season three on September 14th and you can see Duff's entrance on October 5th.

Neil Patrick Harris Might Host Emmys

3 Jul 2009

It's not official yet but chances are Neil Patrick Harris of "How I Met Your Mother" will be hosting the 61st annual Emmys this fall.

Harris himself has been nominated for 2 Emmys and recently (and successfully) hosted the Tony Awards last month and the TVLand Awards in April.

The Emmys will air on September 20th. Hopefully Harris will bring in new viewers since the award show's ratings dropped to an all time low last year while others (Oscars, MTV Awards, etc) viewership's increased.
