Rebecca Black’s YouTube video, Friday, surpassed the 100 million view milestone this week. Believe it or not, it is now the 23rd most watched music video of all time on YouTube. And climbing.
And if that weren’t amazing enough for someone totally unknown a few weeks ago, it was reported recently that the cast of Glee will pay homage to the YouTube sensation by performing the song on an upcoming episode of the show.
How did Rebecca celebrate? She came to The Grove Friday for a chit chat with Mario Lopez of Extra. Here are some pictures of her after the interview:
Hayden Panettiere was at The Grove Wednesday to promote her upcoming Scream 4 movie on the Mario Lopez hosted Extra. Hayden said she was a shoe-in for the movie because her fireman father made sure she learned how to scream bloody-hell from a very young age so that she could scare off potential attackers.
The former Heroes star said, “I’m a fireman’s daughter. He used to tell me all the time when I went to the mall with my friends, ‘What do you do if somebody comes up and grabs you?’ He taught me to scream, ‘You’re not my daddy, you’re not my daddy’. So I had a lot of practice screaming, ‘You’re not my daddy.'”
On a somewhat similar note, the 5’1″ Hayden made headlines earlier this week when she told Ellen DeGeneres that the most embarrassing or rudest question people ask her most often is how she gets it on with her 6’6″ boyfriend, Ukrainian heavyweight boxer Wladimir Klitschko.
“I get the rudest people coming up to me and they’re like, ‘does it work?’ ” she admitted to Ellen. “Yeah, it works. We find a way.”
Ellen said “I know what you’re talking about, but I’m in shock.”
Hayden responded, “Where there is a will, there is a way!”
Ellen expressed her disbelief that random people would ask such intimate questions. Hayden said, “They do. And they are very conservative people most of the time but they just have to know. ‘Like, I have to know, I just have to ask you this question. I’m really sorry but…’ ”
Hayden added, “I don’t mind it. I find it amusing.”
“Really?” Asked Ellen. “Then how does it work?” she joked.
Oh Ellen!

Tori Spelling and husband Dean McDermott were at The Grove Wednesday for an interview with Mario Lopez of Extra. Earlier this week, Tori announced via Twitter: “I know there’s been a lot of speculation, so I wanted everyone to hear from me … It’s official … Dean & I are PREGNANT!!!!”
Tori, and dare I say Dean as well, were both glowing in the afternoon LA sun as the two spoke with Mario. The couple told People mag that they will keep this baby’s gender unknown until birth. “We’ve been blessed with a boy [Liam, 3] and girl [Stella, 2] already, so this time we’ve decided to do it the traditional way.”
She added: “It’s been over three years since I was last pregnant, so it’s like the first time all over again. So I’m nervous but beyond excited. We always wanted a big family.”
Congrats Tori, Dean, Liam and Stella on your growing happy family!

It got real hot and steamy in Los Angeles Wednesday, and I am not just talking about the weather.
Tyra Banks, the gorgeous and fierce creator and host of America’s Next Top Model,co-creator of True Beauty, and host of her own talk show, The Tyra Banks Show, came to The Grove for an interview with Mario Lopez of Extra, but ended up flirting so much with the pretty and dimpled host, you could literally see the sweat dripping from Mario’s face.
You don’t believe me? See the story unravel before your own eyes through the pictures below! And then, watch for the full interview on Extra airing soon.
Mario asked Tyra to describe her perfect man…and she started describing Mario to a tee, including his hair, muscles, and dimples…
Things were heating up so fast, you can see the visible sweat on Mario’s face….
AND…things ended the only way they could in front of a live audience and tons of cameras…..
…they merely hugged it out….
…And then Mario had to cover up the sweat 😉
AND, Tyra couldn’t help herself again and started playing with Mario’s dimples..who can blame her?
Paul Reubens was at The Grove today portraying the infamous fictional comic character he created in the 1980’s, Pee-wee Herman.
Decked out in his all-too-familiar red bow tie, white loafers and grey suit, he was still chock full o’ his trademark never-ending comebacks (“I know you are, but what am I?”) and annoying yet somehow contagious and lovable laugh.
The childlike Pee-wee Herman character was developed in the 1980’s as a stage act but quickly led to an HBO special in 1981. The character became so popular that it spawned two motion pictures: Pee-wee’s Big Adventure in 1985, and Big Top Pee-wee in 1988. And then there was Pee-wee’s Playhouse, an Emmy Award winning children’s series that ran on CBS from 1986-1991.
The character’s success came to a screeching halt when Reubens was arrested in 1991 for allegedly masturbating in a porn theater. Reubens eventually plead “no contest” to the charge of indecent exposure just to put the matter behind him, paid a $50.00 fine and was ordered to perform 70 hours of community service. But that public fiasco spelled immediate doom for “Pee-wee,” that is, until recently.
After decades of being shut out in the dark, the iconic character has made a triumphant return to the spotlight through a special HBO presentation which will air Pee-wee’s new stage show, recorded live at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre in New York City. You can watch a preview clip of that special below. The HBO special is set to air March 19 at 10 PM.
Pee-wee also told Lopez that his fans will soon be seeing a lot more of him: He’s working on a new Pee-wee feature film with writer-director-producer Judd Apatow (Funny People). He told Lopez: “Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, and me – this is our moment!”
