It's no secret that Vanessa Hudgens and Selena Gomez have had similar career trajectories. Both were Disney stars from young ages, and both have tried to break away from their sweet, good-girl type by taking edgier roles in movies like Spring Breakers. After watching footage of the pair on the talk show circuit, we have begun to suspect that the two also are members of the same hive mind. Take a look at the video and see how similarly they respond to questions.

How far would you go to have a good time?
Director Harmony Korine has never been one to follow convention, getting his start as the screenwriter for the 1995 cult, teenage skateboarding drama Kids before launching a career as a director with movies like 1997's Gummo, a loose pastiche of a stories set in the tornado devastated town of Xenia, Ohio, and 2009's Trashhumpers, which followed a group of Nashville, Tennessee, seniors who, um, really like garbage.
Korine's upcoming Spring Breakers may be his strangest yet, as it follows a group of best friends (Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez, Ashley Benson and Rachel Korine) whose hedonistic pursuit of the ultimate spring break ultimately crosses paths with rapper Alien (James Franco), who employs the girls in some criminal activity.

Is Whitney Houston still with us in spirit? Houston's 19-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina Houston, said she still can still hear her mother's voice and feels her presence, telling Oprah, "Lights turn on and off, and I'm like, 'Mom, what are you doing?'" The interview aired Sunday night on Oprah's OWN Network. Houston's sister, Pat, fueled the rumors that Houston was murdered, questioning how the singer ended up in the hotel bathtub where she died. The coroner has already ruled out foul play and is just waiting for toxicology results to give the cause of death. Despite being found with prescription pills in her room, Houston's family claims she was clean at the time of her death.

Last week we warned celebrities to delete any scandalous photos of their phones. Looks like Glee's Heather Morris didn't get the memo. Nude photos of the actress, or a woman who has a strikingly resemblance to Morris, popped up on the web over the weekend (though she plays a high school student, Morris is actually 25). If you haven't already clicked on the link, the photos show Morris (or a Morris impersonator) posing nude in front of a webcam and show her wearing her Britney Spears outfit from the show's tribute episode. There is also a photo of a clothed Morris taken at the White House. Morris has yet to comment. In May of last year, "tasteful" nude photos of Morris leaked online. Morris said of those photos: "For me, I think they are beautiful. It's not something I'm ashamed of. Everybody should do tasteful beautiful nudes -- so when you get older you're gonna be like, 'Oh that's when my body looked so great." And before you ask, here's the (censored) link.

Does being pregnant and engaged mean the Jersey Shore party is over for Snooki? It could, according to one PR expert. "I think Snooki's brand will be negatively affected by her recent pregnancy and news that she is considering marriage," said Ronn Torossian, CEO of 5WPR, a leading PR agency." While the pint-size "meatball" hasn't actually confirmed she's preggers, she has been seen walking around with a new rock from her fiancé Jionni LaValle. MTV is still planning a Jersey Shore spinoff show with Snooki and JWoww called Snooki and JWoww vs. the World. Do baby onesies come in zebra print?

First it was a "slap" then it was a "violet hit" and a "nice wallop." That's how former Desperate Housewives star Nicollette Sheridan has described how the show's creator, Marc Cherry, "struck" her.

Cherry said he "tapped" the actress' head during rehearsal to illustrate how he wanted a scene to play out. When asked by Sheridan's lawyer if he had permission to touch the actress, he replied, "I didn't need permission. Permission was understood."
