Hollywood Crush › Jessica Szohr

What do Hilary Duff and Jessica Szohr have in common? Aside from being pretty young actresses who have both had fun stints on "Gossip Girl"? They've also signed up to be a part of SoBe's latest campaign, "Try Everything," which encourages consumers to engage their inner adventurer or inner explorer to do just that.

MTV News caught up with the ladies at the "Try Anything" Challenge event in New York City recently, where they participated in zany activities like bowling with melons, milking cows and pitching.

"I tried bowling with a melon," Hilary said. "Which was definitely a new one. They came up with different events that are inspired by our favorite drinks and mine is Mango Melon.
I did a pretty good job, if I do say so myself," she said with a smile.

Looks like Taylor Momsen will have a lot more time to focus on her music career. The actress/singer won't be returning to "Gossip Girl" next season. And if she's looking for someone else to join The Pretty Reckless, Jessica Szohr is also looking for work. She too won't be back for The CW drama's fifth season.

TV Line reports that the ladies will no longer be series regulars, but have been invited back as guest stars (which sounds pretty vague to us). So who did make the cut? Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Penn Badgley, Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford will all be back for more drama. And, it seems that Taylor and Jessica's loss is Kaylee DeFer's gain. She's been promoted to series regular.

It's wedding mania today at Hollywood Crush! Once we were able to tear ourselves away from the Royal Wedding madness, we snagged a look at an EXCLUSIVE photo from the upcoming flick "Love, Wedding, Marriage."

In the new romantic comedy, Kellan Lutz plays a man who is about to get hitched to a marriage counselor (played by Mandy Moore). But, if you've seen the trailer, you know that things get a bit crazy! On the eve of their wedding, the best man drops the bomb that Kellan had a previous wedding, a little piece of information that Mandy—who is already dealing with her parents' impending split and her sister's (Jessica Szohr) woes—hadn't known before!

Still, we think that a happily every after is in the cards for this movie couple, as evidenced by Hollywood Crush's EXCLUSIVE still from the movie. Check out Kellan looking happy and handsome, and most importantly, sporting a wedding ring! Perhaps having a nice moment with his new bride, he is seen smiling and gazing off to the side.

There seems to be an encore in the works for "The Last Song" co-stars Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth, who are rumored to be back together according to E! Online.

The can't-seem-to-make-up-their-minds couple met on the set of the 2009 Nicholas Sparks film and went through a few rounds of break up/make up before calling it quits again last fall. Now it looks as though the twosome is back on, however—Liam plans to accompany Miley on the Australian leg of her Gypsy Heart tour this June.

With a tenuous track record like theirs, it's hard to say if Miley and Liam will last this time, but we're certainly rooting for them (such a cute couple!). And it's not like Miley and Liam are alone—lots of our favorite couples have played a little yo-yo with our hearts, going back and forth before reconciling—or calling it quits—for good. Here are some of the couples that have had us on the edge of our seats.

After breakaway success with his documentary "Never Say Never," Justin Bieber is in talks to return to the big screen—this time opposite Ashton Kutcher. According to the Los Angeles Times, "What Would Kenny Do?" is a buddy comedy in which Justin would play the 17-year-old version of Ashton's character. If the project goes forward, it probably won't hit theaters for a while (Justin is touring through 2012), so we here at Hollywood Crush thought we'd pass the time with a little daydreaming about other stars we'd love to see team up for some quality time.

What kinds of movies might some of our favorites team to make? We take a look (by which, of course, we mean "completely fabricate") at some possible upcoming box office hits.

Shaking. Cold sweats. Shouting in your sleep. While these may all be signs of a far more serious condition, they are also common symptoms brought on by lack of new episodes from our favorite CW shows. Separation can be tough, and it's safe to say our Monday nights have not been the same since the last new installments of "90210" and "Gossip Girl" aired a good, oh, four weeks ago. (Not that we're counting. Oh, whatever. Yes we are!)

Unfortunately we're not out of the woods yet, Crushers—new episodes return on April 18—but thankfully the network is preventing any further physical trauma by sending us a sneak peak of what's to come on each show's home stretch. And it looks goooood. Really good. (Watch the promo after the jump!)

What do you get when you combine a newlywed marriage counselor with hilarious parents who drop the bomb that they’re getting divorced weeks before their blowout anniversary party? If you’re talking about "Love, Wedding, Marriage," then you must mean the golden recipe for a blockbuster comedy.

The trailer, which hit the web today, seems to have all of the key ingredients for a successful wedding-centric movie: father James Brolin moving in with the newlyweds (walking in on them canoodling, natch), an eccentric marriage counselor called in as a last resort to save the marriage and, of course…Jane Seymour.

This isn’t helmer Dermot Mulroney’s first walk down the aisle as he starred in "My Best Friend’s Wedding" alongside Julia Roberts, but this does mark his directorial debut. As for Mandy Moore, who we watched jump through hoops just to make it to the altar in "License to Wed," she'll be flexing her acting chops as she embodies not only as a happy newlywed but a go-to girl for marriage advice. Needless to say she will not accept defeat when her idealized picture of a perfect couple comes crashing down before her eyes. What does she do instead? Ask Jessica Szohr to help her pick out flower arrangements for the anniversary celebration that is going to happen.

What's a girl to do when faced with the prospect of posing in nothing more than strategically placed swathes of body paint? Phone a friend! When "Gossip Girl" star Jessica Szohr signed on as the newest face of SoBe Lifewater—a job that meant being photographed in a scaly, painted-on lizard "skinsuit"—the actress turned to friend Ashley Greene for advice. After all, just a year ago, the "Twilight" actress was SoBe's first skinsuit model, shooting nearly naked images in the tropical paradise of Turks and Caicos. What words of wisdom did Ashley have for bestie Jessica? Sleep!

"She warned me that it takes a very long time, and it was 11 hours," Jessica said of the body-painting process. "[Ashley] goes, 'Don't worry. When you lay down you can take naps and all that.' And I certainly did.'"

"Gossip Girl" hipster Jessica Szohr and "Twilight" vampire Ashley Greene are more than just friends—they're both members of the sisterhood of the body-painted beauties. Last year, it was Ashley who posed in a painted-on "skinsuit" in a series of ads for SoBe Lifewater's zero calorie flavors. This year, Jessica takes over itty-bitty bathing suit duty to help launch the new SoBe Lifewater with electrolytes. The photos, shot in the lush jungles of Costa Rica, will appear in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, but we have a sneak peek for you here. If you haven't already skipped all of this text just to gawk at Jessica in her scaly suits, we recommend you take a gander by clicking on the image below.

"Last year's SoBe Lifewater skinsuit shoot took place on a gorgeous beach; this year's skinsuit shoot in the jungle was still amazing, but a little different," Jessica explained. "It definitely had an edgy vibe that I loved."

Crushers, we hope you had a wonderfully relaxing Christmas and received every little thing your heart desired! While we were busy indulging in Christmas dinner, putting our pop-culture presents to good use and avoiding this horrific blizzard sweeping the East Coast, our favorite celebrities were getting into the holiday spirit as well. And, as a little belated present to you guys, we're giving you a neatly wrapped recap of all their crazy holiday shenanigans.

Let's start off with the bad news. Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson officially filed for divorce, but fortunately they still remain great friends. But that depressing announcement was balanced by news that "Big Love" and "He's Just Not That Into You" star Ginnifer Goodwin got engaged to her boyfriend Joey Kern!
