This morning, the internet fairy brought us the best gift ever: some sneak-peek pics of Ryan Kwanten's upcoming appearance on "New Girl"! And if you've been missing Ryan's glistening pecs adorable face in these long, cold months without "True Blood," then take note: Fox released a whopping 10 (TEN!) delicious stills from the show, which depict the actor in various stages of flirtation with Zooey Deschanel.

The bad news: He's wearing clothes in all of them. (Boo!)
The good news: There's not a T-shirt in the universe that could hide the glory of those beautiful biceps. (YAY.)

What are you doing on New Year's Eve? Whatever it is, it's probably not as cool as hanging out with offscreen BFFs Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel. The "(500) Days of Summer" stars teamed up and recorded a new duet for Zooey's website, HelloGiggles, and it's basically the most adorable thing we've seen all week.

The duo covered Nancy Wilson's classic "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve" in a low-production video posted to YouTube. Ever since JGL joined ZD in She & Him's "Why Do You Let Me Stay Here" music video, we've been obsessing about their mutual exploits off screen as well as on. We've been crossing our fingers for them to team up again onthe big screen, but the closest we've gotten is their hilarious Cinemash of "Sid and Nancy."

Sad but true: Awards season sometimes isn't the most exciting time for crushy news coverage (unless, of course, you're the proprietor of a blog called F--- Yeah! Historical Biopics and/or Meryl Streep). But this year? Oh, man, this year is gonna be awesome. Because the Golden Globes nominations are in, and lo, they are fantastic. So when it comes time to tune in for the awards ceremony on January 15, you can bet we'll be keeping a watchful eye on a few key categories. Which noms have the Crush staff so psyched? Check it:

First off: Hey girl, prepare yourself for a double hit of Ryan Gosling; not only is he the rightful heir to the Sexiest Man Alive throne, he's up for best actor in a drama for "The Ides of March", and best actor in a comedy for "Crazy, Stupid, Love." (What's that? You need another reason to watch? Well, fine: Joseph Gordon-Levitt is also up for best comedy actor for his performance in "50/50.") And finally, rounding out the eye candy: Michael Fassbender, with a nomination for best actor (drama) in "Shame."

We may or may not have done our fair share of internet dating, so we may or may not have seen just about every desperate, detestable ploy used to get a girl to go out with a guy. Yet, we somehow can't decide whether this particular gem falls under "terrible" or "tremendous." (We're leaning towards the latter...)

Let's go back. All the way back. To 2008. When Schmidt, the wannabe ladies' man of Fox's "New Girl" played by Max Greenfield, created an online dating profile video to woo the women of Los Angeles. And, honestly, guy knows his audience, as he hilariously channels the opening credit sequence from a certain MTV series starring Lauren Conrad.

If you're staring down a long, lonely winter of singledom (including a loverless Valentine's Day in the cold, cruel month of February), then here's a piece of news that'll make you want to rip your own face into little, angry pieces! The news from E! Online is that Ryan Kwanten, best-known 'round these parts as the hot-bodied Jason Stackhouse on "True Blood," will be making an appearance on a special Valentine's episode of "New Girl" as a love interest for star Zooey Deschanel. Because apparently it's not enough for our friends, our boyfriends and every single guy we've ever crushed on to have a thing for the Hot Hipster Poster Girl; she's got to take our celebrity lust objects, too. Way to bogart ALL THE GUYS, Zooey.

The scoop from E! indicates that Ryan will play a prospective one-night stand for Zooey's character Jess, making her the 2,399,764th person in the world to take one look at Ryan Kwanten and immediately want to see him naked. But while we can't get our hopes up for some sizzling nude scenes (this show doesn't air on HBO, alas), this might be a great opportunity to see Ryan playing a different kind of role—and ooooh, perhaps showing off his natural, yummy Australian accent? 'Scuse us, but we've gotta go set our DVR.

Not content limiting their Zooey Deschanel interactions to those hipster cotton commercials, TV viewers turned out in full force last night for the actress' quirky new series, "New Girl."

The Fox laugher stars Zooey as plucky Jess, a recently jilted girlfriend who makes a fresh start by moving into an apartment with three guys. A good thing for them—they'd never seen "Dirty Dancing"!

Despite the pilot being posted on Hulu and iTunes prior to its premiere, "New Girl" earned pretty stellar ratings, according to TVLine. In fact, it even bested its lead-in...a little series you may have heard of called "Glee."

Now, the question is, will viewers return next week? Personally, I felt like the series' ad campaign revealed way too much of the pilot, so I'll be tuning in to see what other giggles and gags the "New Girl" has planned for me before passing my final judgement. But what about you? Did Zooey win you over? Vote in our poll after the jump!

As fall premiere season chugs along, there are a number of female-driven comedies that are really getting us excited to be, well, females. "2 Broke Girls" over on CBS is one of those shows. And this week, Zooey Deschanel's new Fox comedy, "New Girl," drops as well, and it has us thanking god(dess) that we'll be charmed by Zooey week after week. As a result, we're naming her this week's Girl Crush!

"I think it's amazing," she told MTV News about the wave of funny lady successes. "I think we're in a time right now where there was a tipping point [and] so many of the pilots that were picked up are female leads, female written. Girls are kicking butt in comedy. I feel like this is a new frontier. I feel like it's a really exciting time right now for women and comedy."

Starting next Tuesday, Zooey Deschanel will be Fox's "New Girl." The indie queen will tackle the small screen week after week and try to put together the pieces of her character Jess' life after she finds her boyfriend cheating on her.

What's a girl to do? Well, move out and find herself three adorable male roomies to get her mind off her troubles. So why should you watch? Zooey explained to MTV News: "Well because it's really funny! Ah, duh! No, I play a really unique character, and I feel like we're kind of representing a generation that I haven’t necessarily seen in a sitcom before. I haven’t seen these characters before on TV. I feel this is sort of a new area."

Yes, you read that headline correctly. We are proud to declare Khloe Kardashian this week’s Style Superstar. Though she and her sisters often provide fodder for our weekly style "losers," we were so blown away by how sexy yet sophisticated she looked at the launch of the Kardashian Kollection at Sears that we just had to crown her this week’s style winner.

Considering that Kendall wore this questionable tattoo dress and Kim, cut an unflattering form in this leopard jumpsuit, Khloe’s outfit is just that much more impressive. Leopard is a key trend for fall, and Khloe proves that you can wear leopard without falling into trashy territory. This popped-shoulder blazer, a little bling bling, perfect black pumps and wavy hair complete Khloe’s superstar ensemble. Kim, Kourtney, Kendall, Kylie and Kris—this is officially the Kardashian to go for fashion advice (at least for now...)!
