Hollywood Crush › Conan O'Brien

Team Edward? Team Jacob? PFFFFT. With "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1" finally out in theaters, that debate is officially done (seriously, you guys; they're married, and fun as it's been, we must move on.) But if you're wondering where Kristen Stewart's loyalties lie...well, sorry Edward, but she's clearly TEAM COCO. And after KStew made an appearance on "Conan" last night, we're thinking her allegiance might actually be more dangerous than any vampire romance; one compliment from her, and Conan went positively feral!

But before that happened, Kristen spent some time talking about her current, country-hopping lifestyle, and the difference in celebrity treatment across the pond.

The "Thor" premiere is fast approaching and bringing new meaning to the phrase "oh my god." The latest solo "Avenger" comic book flick stars Chris Hemsworth (as in the hunky brother of Miley Cyrus beau/future Gale Hawthorne Liam Hemsworth), and the young stars are of the film are just as excited as we are about the movie. Kat Dennings (pictured) started the day off with a hyperactive stream of excitement, tweeting, "THOR THOR THOR THOR THOR THOR THOR THOR THOR #THOR." Co-star Jaimie Alexander was a little more coherent about looking forward to the big premiere. "Woohooo very excited for the #THOR premiere tonight!!!!!! :)" she tweeted.

Comic-influenced wasn't the only variety of crime fighting that was a hot topic today. Like the rest of the country, many stars were quick to voice their opinions about the news that terrorist Osama bin Laden was killed over the weekend. Rob Thomas was happy about the news, tweeting, "don't get me wrong. i can't remember ever being GLAD someone was dead and i'm glad he is. i just know there's already another in his place." Ryan Seacrest tweeted about the news' affect on the city of New York, "Being in NYC late last night was incredible. People chanting "USA! USA!" Bars handing out American flags & free champagne."

The early verdict is in on NBC's sing competition series "The Voice": a resounding "yay!" With vocal coaches like Christina Aguilera (pictured), Adam Levine and Cee Lo Green, it's probably not too shocking that the show is worth a watch. What's more surprising: It's already being hailed as better than reigning king of the singing show, "American Idol." Blake Shelton responded to a tweet from Us Weekly that suggested fan support is higher for the newbie show. "@usweekly: Looks like most of our readers prefer #TheVoice over #AmericanIdol! http://t.co/OtWzXyL" Your readers are so smart!!" Coach Christina praised the contestants, saying, "More and more blown away by these auditions! Proud of the team I’ve got behind me! #TheVoice." And YouTube sensation Rebecca Black made time to tune in. "Watched #thevoice last night. I thought it was great!(: What did you guys think?"

The voices on NBC aren't the only ones warming up to wow. If the number of "OMG I'm in rehearsals!" tweets are any indication, there won't be a shortage of showstopping singing and dancing in the near future. "Degrassi:The Next Generation" actress and singer Andrea Lewis was all about rehearsals —like times three, tweeting, "Rehearsals, Rehearsals, REHEARSALS!" Josh Groban decided to make practice interactive, giving fans a chance to take a peek at his rehearsal process. "Behind the scenes at tour music rehearsal! (my hair will be tamed for actual show) http://t.co/7PxnK5M #straighttoyoutour #seeyouthere."

The DVD release of "Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure" was oh-so-chic today on Twitter. Stars Ashley Tisdale and Austin Butler (pictured) were super psyched for the release. Ashley, who tweeted over the weekend about plans to sign copies of the DVD at a Los Angeles Barnes & Noble today, had a lot to be excited about: a new episode of her series "Hellcats" also debut tonight! "Too excited for today! Sharpays fabulous adventure is finally in stores AND new Hellcats episodes start tonight!!!" she tweeted. As for Austin, he just hopes fans like the movie. "Sharpay’s Fabulous Adventure is now in stores! Hope you like it!"

Ashley and Austin may have been hard at work promoting today, but fellow Disney alum Joe Jonas was taking it easy. "Was in the desert yesterday morning. Now in paradise. :) chillinnnnn ..." he tweeted, hinting at a tropical vacay. Pal Anna Perez de Tagle all but confirmed this, tweeting, "@joejonas heard where you guys were..extremely jealous..drink a coconut for me! Haha :)" It's not like those guys couldn't use a break.

It looks like maybe Miley Cyrus can be tamed after all. The actress and singer was under the weather today, tweeting, "In bed sick today please pray for me." Some celeb BFFs, including fashionista Kelly Osbourne and celebrity blogger Perez Hilton sent their tweet support. Kelly even offered to bring Miley some comfort food, tweeting, "@MileyCyrus do you want me to come bring you soup?"

Most of young Hollywood was up and about today, however, including the cast of the upcoming Disney Channel Original Movie "Lemonade Mouth." Star Hayley Kiyoko tweeted her excitement about the movie's premiere, saying, "LA premiere today!!! Super excited to walk the yellow carpet with the cast :)" Fellow Disney star, "Good Luck Charlie"'s Bradley Steven Perry, shared his love for the movie's just-released soundtrack, tweeting, "Just bought the lemonade Mouth album!

Celebs let their comedic sides run wild today, celebrating April Fools' on Twitter. The CW almost got us with this tweet, "BREAKING NEWS! Rebecca Black joining the cast of #gossipgirl. http://bit.ly/envTI5." Seriously, if that's what it took to hang out with Leighton and Blake, we would already be recording our cover of "Friday." While some stars, like "Jersey Shore"'s Sammi Giancola, asked followers for prank advice, others seemed less excited about the prank-tastic holiday, like Benji Madden, who tweeted, "April fools today. I'm not even leaving the house. F that." See some of our favorite celebrity Twitter pranks after the jump.

Another topic that was pretty hoppin' today was the family-friendly film "Hop," which hit theaters today. Katy Perry encouraged fans to see the flick in a shout out to husband Russell Brand, who lends his voice to the film, as did Kaley Cuoco, who also voices a character in the bunny movie. Even sharp-tongued late night host Chelsea Handler told fans to check it out—even though she won't be in the audience herself. "Go see HOP this weekend. I won’t cause I hate kids, but you should," she tweeted.

For a weekend that was filled with sad news, many took to Twitter, not only to spread the word about how people can do their part for those suffering in Japan, but for some brief escapism in the form of entertainment. Followers of singer Katy Perry learned the latest about her single "E.T." when she posted, "WE'RE #1 ON ITUNES! GREAT news to wake up to! Thank u for ur AMAZING support," while "Harry Potter" actress Emma Watson announced, "It starts with an L and ends with an E. I’m sure you have guessed the new face of Lancôme is me! :-)."

On the other end of the Hollywood spectrum came some particularly great news out of the 2011 SXSW Festival in Austin, Texas. The three-day movie, music and art fest has become a go-to spot for film premieres, which this year includes the comedy Hollywood Crush simply can't wait to see: "Bridesmaids." The flick—and particularly its star/co-writer Kristen Wiig (pictured here in a scene from the movie)—received raves from those who attended the screening. "Paul" star Simon Pegg praised, "It is without doubt the funniest film I have seen in a long, long time. LOVED it" as "The Back-Up Plan" sidekick Michaela Watson assured, "Saw screening #bridesmaids last nite.Hats off to Kristin Wiig 'n everyone else involved for revolutionizing womens' roles in comedy 4 ever!"

Don't go, Reege! This morning TV legend Regis Philbin announced he'll be retiring from "Live With Regis and Kelly." The news bummed out many celebs who have appeared as guests on the show, including actress Sophia Bush who cried, "Boo! I love Regis. He's one of my favs. He'll be missed." Meanwhile, Olympic skater Apolo Anton Ohno pondered, "I did hear that Regis is retiring...it will be tough to find a replacement..that man is incredible!" but former *NSYNC member Joey Fatone already had someone lined up for the job...himself! Joey, pictured, who has previously worked on shows like "The Singing Bee" tweeted, "Maybe they need a nyc native to take his place ! I better start practicing my hosting skills again!"

But Regis leaving his job won't be the only big change coming to mornings. Starbucks has announced they'll introduce the "Trenta" size for their iced coffees and iced teas. Singer Michelle Branch explained from her page that, "Trenta means 30 in Italian but it will be 31-ounces, which is 16 ml larger than a human stomach at rest" while funny man Conan O'Brien had his own explanation on his Twitter page, "I can't wait to try the new gigantic Starbucks size, "Trenta". Or as it's called in The Midwest, "A Medium"." Elsewhere, Cobra Starship band member Victoria Asher noted, "Man, I'd hate to spill a new Starbucks Trenta sized coffee on my lap."

When you think of Conan O'Brien, you think of sweet dance moves (what...just us?!). But tomorrow night, Conan (who wrote one of today's funniest tweets, "Dreidel dreidel dreidel, I made you out of clay, and when you’re dry and ready, I’ll have no idea what to do with you") will have his puppet string dance rivaled when the amazing group The LXD stops by his show. The LXD member and "Glee" star Harry Shum Jr. posted, "Working on lighting cues for @thelxd show for @conanobrien. DANCE will go EVIL...LIVE for the first time! @teamcoco are you ready?" Jon Chu, who directs The LXD's online series teased anxious fans with, "Just saw the LXD rehearsal footage for the Conan show onWednesday show...OMFLXD. This sh is bananas. U must watch on wed!"

Of course, The LXD aren't the only ones showing off their dancing skills this week. Look no further than Christina Applegate's new outrageous "Funny Or Die" clip in which she plays... a pregnant pole dancer! The viral video (which also features Jessalyn Gilsig!) got some major attention on Twitter, to which preggers Christina (pictured) told followers, " I hear I have disgusted some of you. And all I have to say to you is........you're welcome! Xo."
