If you like glass architecture, battles royale, brooding royalty and heroic young ladies with murder on their minds, then you'll want to pay attention to this post in which Hollywood Crush debuts the exclusive new book trailer for the soon-to-be-released fantasy adventure, "Throne of Glass". (And if you don't like these things? GET OUT OF OUR BLOG.)

The long-awaited debut of author Sarah J. Maas, "Throne of Glass" is the beginning of what promises to be an epic, multi-book (we hope!) adventure—beginning when teenage assassin Celaena Sardothien is released from a life of imprisonment and brutal labor in order to compete at court for the title of royal assassin. If she wins, she wins her freedom. If she loses, the only freedom she'll know is death. And with two maybe-suitors, a series of murders and all the tangled intrigues and intricacies of life at court, Celaena's story is one you'll definitely want to follow when the book comes out August 7.

A flashback, an almost sex scandal and a breakup: just another Sunday night on "Girls."

Hannah was still dealing with fallout from the journal incident. Excuse me, notebook incident. "I feel like journal applies to a 13-year-old girl who rides horses and is obsessed with her mom, and that's just not what I'm about," Hannah huffed as Charlie and Marnie debated the authenticity of Hannah's notebook musings. Marnie said Hannah didn't know anything, but Charlie seemed to disagree, storming out and taking with him the Restoration Hardware-esque table he crafted for his sweetheart. Marnie vowed to win him back.

Every day a multitude of stars wander through the halls of MTV News to talk about their latest projects and goof around with staff members. But sometimes we catch stars elsewhere, and that's why we put together Spotted!, a daily compendium of stars in the wild.

Robert Pattinson celebrated his birthday in London last night, and from the looks of this pic, he might've been late to his own party! The actor was caught mid-stride and on the run outside Claridge's, where he rushed to join some celebrity friends and celebrate his 26th in style. (Although despite the classy venue, Rob opted for a distinctly casual look.)

Kristen Stewart, Rob's BFF Tom Sturridge and Sturridge's fiancee Sienna Miller all joined the birthday boy for a low-key evening, and actor Hugh Jackman was spotted entering the building as well—though whether it was for the party or just because he had a hankering for fine food, nobody seems to know. (We can only hope an impromptu sing-a-long ensued...)

For those who remained unsatisfied with those itty-bitty behind-the-scenes teasers for season five of "True Blood" that we've been seeing all month, here's some delightful news: The official full-length trailer for the upcoming season debuted last night, and where the previous clips were mere trickles of the "True Blood" we're so thirsty for, this one is a full-on gusher.

So, what's in store when the series returns on June 10? Among other things: an extended look at new addition to the cast Christopher Meloni (Yay!), who is wearing a suit (Boo! We wanted nudity!) and issuing dire warnings about the consequences should the resident vampires fail to locate Russell Edgington and stop him from ripping out anybody else's spinal column on national television. And yep, that's Russell himself in that final shot (and also, we think, laughing evilly in voice-over during the title screen)—leading us to believe that the glorious Mr. Edgington is not only back in a big way, but that his nascent movement to bring about vampire supremacy is going to be the primary problem for the Bon Temps crew this season.

Guess who's celebrating a milestone birthday today? None other than "Glee" star Cory Monteith! The Canadian cutie may have the baby face to play a teenager on Fox's musical series, but in real life he's turning the big 3-0! His (supposedly) on- and off-screen lady, Lea Michele, took to Twitter—after she finished filming the last scenes for season three!—to wish her friend a very joyful day.

"Glee" has been wrapping production for the actors all week, but last night Lea wrote that it was just her, Cory and Chris Colfer left on set. It's sad to think the show won't be the same when it returns next fall, but we're excited to see where our favorite characters end up!

Hey guys, Sunday is Robert Pattinson's birthday, and we're celebrating a bit early!

As the actor turns 26, he has a lot of great movie projects in the works like the upcoming fever-dream "Cosmopolis" and the war thriller "Mission: Blacklist."

From auctioning off kisses for a campaign against AIDS to donating thousands of dollars to fund charity projects, we're honoring his big day by taking a look back at all the ways he inspires us!

Let me start by saying that if you haven't watched last night's epic season three finale of "The Vampire Diaries," you need to click away right now. NO I'M SERIOUS I'M DOING YOU A FAVOR DON'T READ ANY FURTHER OKAY.

All clear? Okay, let's chat about "The Departed." Because BLOODY HELL. Even though Michael Trevino warned us there would be plenty of death and destruction during the episode, we somehow still had it in our head that Elena's Salvatore brother selection would be the most jaw-dropping moment of the night. (Moral: Never underestimate Julie Plec.) But that explains why, when we caught up with Miss Dobrev at the unveiling of her new Got Milk? ad, hours before the finale aired, we asked what her take was on the winner of Elena's affections (and not what she thought about, oh, I don't know, BECOMING A VAMPIRE).

All hands were on deck for the L.A. premiere of "Battleship" this week, but the fun red-carpet looks from the film's stars were anything but military issue. (We could spend all day ogling Alexander SkarsgÄrd in his perfectly tailored suit! Or, um, out of it.) And when it came time to pick this week's Style Superstar, there was no better place to look than amongst the crew members from the Earth's last stand against evil aliens! Who took home the honors by taking the notion of "dress whites" to a whole new level? And whose ethereal look was dead in the water?

Rihanna's wild white dress and halfway shaved hairstyle were the source of some conflict amongst fashion gossips...but one look at her walking the red carpet, and we're officially feeling the love. The unusual drape of this dress turned it into a show-stopper every time Rihanna moved, and her black-and-white accessories and bright pink lips were a perfect match for her edgy look. And while, okay, the hair is a little...odd, RiRi's ability to carry off unusual cuts is so much a part of her signature style, it's just not possible to hate it. This Style Superstar can sink our battleship anytime.
