William Rast

Singer turned actor turned fashion guy Justin Timberlake is about to launch a new fall ad campaign for his William Rast clothing line, featuring a series of online film spots.

In the shorts, Mr. SexyBack himself takes on the role of the fictitious William Rast, who is described as "an accomplished rebel with an edgy sense of style," while his girlfriend Birdie, played by model Erin Wasson, is "a strong woman with an unabashed sense of confidence."

What's more, these characters will be "draped in standout pieces from the fall collection."

Lest we forget that these slick flicks are really nothing more than just stylized commercials.

And let's hope this is the last we hear of a certain wardrobe malfunction.

The long-running legal saga involving the escape of Janet Jackson's right breast during the halftime show of the 2004 Super Bowl has apparently come to an end as a federal appeals court today tossed out the $550,000 indecency fine against CBS Corp.

In its ruling, the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the Federal Communications Commission "acted arbitrarily and capriciously" when it issued the pricey penalty against the network for the boob slippage.

Nor should the "Sexyback" singer ever quit his day job and become a drag queen.

While hosting the ESPY Awards Wednesday night, Justin Timberlake donned a wig and stood behind a Daisy Duke cutout of Jessica Simpson to poke fun at the pop star-turned-country crooner's relationship with Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo.

Playful and amusing? Perhaps. Yet we can't help but feel a little sorry for Jess...

Peter Lindbergh for Harper's Bazaar

Maybe because her boyfriend brought sexy back, Jessica Biel is feeling pressure to revitalize something as well.

While sharing her thoughts on the institution of marriage in the August issue of Harper's Bazaar, the '80s-born beauty manages to throw in a little syntax from the '60s.

"I've never been someone who's like, 'I have to, have to, have to have it,'" she says. "But the idea of being with somebody I care about, who's my soul mate, that sounds groovy."

While not exactly longing for a return to those hippie-dippy days, we'll definitely take such counterculture-based terminology over the likes of tubular, phat, nifty and dope anytime.

Which may explain why she's turned to blogging.

Biel made her first foray into the blogosphere over the weekend at MySpace Celebrity, where she revealed she only had four, or possibly six, friends. (We hope she's not counting MySpace man Tom, because that guy says he's friends with everyone.)

Short on embarrassing personal revelations (aside from the dearth of pals), the posting mainly sticks to her dog, movies she has in the works and some charitable interests.

And nothing about Justin Timberlake.

But it's her first attempt. If she keeps at it, we bet she'll be oversharing in no time.

We don't blame Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel for looking annoyed. Even a simple stroll through West Hollywood today resulted in a flashbulb frenzy for this famous couple.

But how'd they train her pooch, Tina, to pull such a long face? Old dog. Neat trick.

The CW

OMFG. Consider the Gossip Girl word sufficiently spread.

The CW hit received a leading—and whopping—14 nominations this morning for the Teen Choice 2008 Awards.

Chris Brown checked in with nine nods, Miley Cyrus (who will host the ceremony) scored four nods, and perpetual nominee Justin Timberlake racked up three.

Timberlake is the awards' winningest artist, having aggregated 21 surfboards—the event's laid-back hardware of choice—since 1999.
