Julianne Hough's brother Derek said that his 23 year-old sister is too young to marry Ryan Seacrest. Julianne tells Prestige magazine that she and Ryan aren't racing to the altar, but if they do get hitched, it will be a small, private affair.

On being Ryan Seacrest's girlfriend: "He has to keep up with me! The good thing is that we both have the same personality. We’re both very driven. We’re very ambitious. We’re very career-oriented. We’re both in the entertainment world... and we’re very supportive of each other. It’s actually a very great situation that we’re in."

On whether or not she'll marry soon: "I think we’re really happy where we are at this moment and I don’t think there’s any kind of pressure to do that. We’re just going to keep going. But if that ever happened, I don’t think it would be a big deal. It would be something very low-key. Not quite Vegas. But that’s not on our minds right now. We’re very happy with where we’re at and what we’re doing. You might as well be happy with doing what you’re doing than try and force something."

Her relationship sounds doomed. Julianne's a smart girl! She's pretty much saying that if Ryan stops spending on her, she won't be happy, and then she'll bounce! Ha.

Ryan Seacrest may be replacing Matt Lauer on The Today Show. Kim Kardashian should just go ahead and replace Ann Curry too! The Wall Street Journal reports that fame addict Ryan is in talks to replace Matt Lauer on the popular morning news show.

Sources told the paper that Seacrest, 36, is a "possible successor" for Lauer, 53, and met with executives behind the show on Tuesday.

Matt's Today Show contract expires in December 2012.

One word: WHY?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ryan Seacrest is either a great friend, or a nosy opportunist who will kiss anyone in Hollywood's a*s. I choose to believe that he's the former. Seacrest has been reaching out to Ashton Kutcher since his Sara Leal affair story broke.

Ashton actually honored Ryan at the LA's Promise 2011 gala in Hollywood on Sept. 27 where he was spotted talking to Ryan for most of the night.

Hollywood Life reports: “Backstage Ashton took Ryan aside and thanked him for being such ‘an incredible friend through such difficult times,’” our source says.

The conversation lasted "for about 40 minutes" and concluded with a big hug. Ashton thanked Ryan for always sending him text messages saying, ‘Just thinking about you’ and ‘How are you doing today?’

Kutcher even told Ryan that "It's during the most challenging times in your life that you really realize who your good friends are!" So true.

So random! I'm sure Seacrest is great, but he has such a seedy look about him and his stoic demeanor doesn't help any. Remember when Ashton was BFFs with P. Diddy, who introduced him to Demi Moore? Ashton wanted to know where the vodka's at, but we'd like to know where P. Douche is at. Your boy could use some help!

Apparently, Lindsay Lohan did more than pound shots at Kim Kardashian's wedding, she also found time to drunkenly harass Ryan Seacrest in some kind of weird effort to score a reality show.

According to Star magazine, witnesses at the wedding say Linds spent much of the night following Seacrest around "like a puppy" and whenever she got a chance, LiLo could be seen, "pressing Ryan hard to dream up a reality show concept for her. Lindsay sees how Ryan turned Kim into an A-list star, and she wants him to do the same thing for her.” The report also notes that "every time Lindsay would walk away [Ryan] would roll his eyes and giggle."

Wow. I don't know what's more surprising - that Ryan Seacrest is such an in-demand star-maker, or that Lindsay Lohan spent the night drunkenly following a guy around a party with no intention of going down on him in the coat room. Actually, I'm jumping to conclusions on that last part. Linds would probably swallow Ryan's seacrest in a heartbeat if it meant a shot at the A-list.

The 2011 celebrity circus known as Kim Kardashian's wedding is just days away! Everyone is getting their manicures on point, making sure their hair's did, and fitting in those extreme juicing diets to lose those last couple of pounds for the big day. Am I talk about Kim or her guests? Both of course! This is gonna be like a major red carpet event for those luckiest enough to be invited. *sarcasm*

So who can we expect at Kimmy Kupcakes wedding? A few who are expected to attend the nuptials include: Venus and Serena Williams, Ryan Seacrest (duh! He's making money off of it too!), Kelly Osbourne, Maria Menounos  and Kim's bestie La La Vazquez.

Other guests I'm sure we can expect to make an appearance are Kimmy's other gal pals Brittny Gastineau, Pussycat Dolls founder Robin Antin, Demi Lovato, rounded out with Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez. That's just the tip of the ice burg! A trillion other celebrities and a few of Kris Humphries basketball pals will be there too.

The is the wedding of the century! At least Kimmy wants us to think so.

Should Ryan Seacrest be considered a terrorist? The man who hosts American Idol, a show built upon the idea that talented signers should be rewarded for their natural gift, has signed Rebecca Black, the 13-year-old who sings the hit song "Friday."

Ryan met with Rebecca and her mother on Thursday for his radio show. According to TMZ, he realized that Becky and her mama were overwhelmed by the sudden burst of attention, so what did he decide to do? Give Becky and her mother MORE attention.

Ryan hooked Rebecca up with Debra Baum, a manager with DB Entertainment. 

Rebecca has now signed with DB.

Rebecca's label better rush her album and release it before we don't even care about her enough to mock her. The female William Hung has officially arrived.

Uh oh. Julianne Hough isn't going to be too happy with brother Derek Hough because of this interview. Derek spoke to People magazine about the National Enquirer's story that Julianne and Ryan Seacrest got engaged in Paris recently. Well, turns out that the National Enquirer's rumor isn't true. Hmmm... Maybe it's time for me to cancel my subscription, but the Enquirer's always filled with great stories to blog, so I'll keep it.

Derek said: "I haven't heard anything [about an engagement] and I am sure I would have it if were true."

But if Seacrest, 35, were to pop the question to Julianne, 22, eventually, would her big brother approve? "I think she might be a little young," says the Dancing with the Stars champ.

You tell it boy! I feel bad for Ryan (who turns 36 on Dec. 24) because he's extremely picky, and, let's face it, Julianne's the perfect woman. She's gorgeous, ridiculously sweet in person, multi-talented, young, and just a few years ago had said that she was abstaining from sex until marriage - it doesn't get any better than that. But if Ryan and Julianne do get married, lets say in three years, you know she's going to leave him for a hotter, younger, less gay guy who sweeps her off her feet. Then a finally-outta-the-closet Ryan will be left childless, fat, and asking Clay Aiken if he'd like to hook up.

As part of a campaign to raise money for AIDS treatment research, Kim Kardashian has announced that she will be "dead" on Facebook and Twitter until the charity that she's working with receives 1 million dollars in donations. That's right; no quotable status updates or slutty twit pics unless people start handing over the cash. I don't think Kim understands how ransom works.

The problem is, it's beginning to look like Kim might be "dead" for a while, as donations are far behind where they were expected to be at this point. Despite the involvement of other celebs like Justin Timberlake and Lady Gaga, the campaign has only raised $200,000 in three days, meaning that the intrawebs might be free of famous folks for most of December. So, if you're dying to know where Ryan Seacrest is having dinner tonight, you better fork over that anti-AIDS cash with the quickness. Don't act like you don't have a few hundred grand socked away for just such an emergency.

The way I see it, this campaign is stalling for two reasons: 1.) They went with a totally played-out 80s disease. AIDS is over. Don't they know Lupus is so hot right now? It's totally gonna blow up in '11. 2.) People usually get something from a fundraiser, like a t-shirt, or a bumper sticker that lets cops know they're above the law. In this case, their only reward is more pictures of Kim Kardashian's cleavage. Epic incentive fail.

From the start, this campaign was more about celebrity egos than AIDS research. "Let's see how much cash our fans are willing to fork over to continue hearing about every mundane detail of our lives! What? Not that much? I'm totally gonna tweet about how much this sucks! Oh, wait..."

The wedding bells aren't ringing yet for Julianne Hough and Ryan Seacrest. The couple has only been dating for a few months but I think it's time for them to get engaged, tie the knot, and start making super star babies.

Ryan has never been so smitten with a chick before and he's even become a little laid back with his work schedule since he found love!

“We have never seen him like this before. For the first time ever, he is taking a second away from work."

Ryan's not the only one that adores Julianne Hough, his parents dig her too.

"We never thought he would meet anyone he liked as much as work, but now he has. Ryan’s parents adore her. She is smart, beautiful , funny and most important, she has made their son happy. They are just waiting for him to pop the question.”

Pop it Ryan, pop it! They are seriously the cutest couple in Hollywood. I hope he doesn't end up losing her because he's a workaholic.

You can't put two divas on the same show and not expect some b*tching. I saw this coming the moment Jennifer Lopez's name was ever mentioned as a judge!

According to Star magazine, J.Lo's personality is clashing with Ryan Seacrest's and he's already regretting suggesting her as a judge. The cat fights are coming!

“Ryan was the one who first suggested Jennifer, but now he’s starting to regret it, because she’s acting like she’s a much bigger star than he is. Ryan knows the diva behavior is likely to get worse before it gets better. Producers are trying to get them to make peace, but their egos are both pretty big.”

The ho is getting paid too much as it is. Nobody deserves to get paid $12 million for one year as a judge, especially J.Lo! They could cut out a lot of the problems with Ryan and Jennifer if they keep them apart while they're both menstruating, and I'm sure he gets his panties in a bunch when J.Lo's makeup looks better than his. I hope we get to see the claws come out between these two on live TV.
