Welcome back to my Buzz Gift Guide series for all the entertainment lovers in your life. We're talking kids and teens this week, and since we've covered the boys already, today it's all about the teen girls.
Teenage girls (I know because I was one) can be hard to shop for since the age lends itself to phases.

Audiences fell in love with Juno, pact or no pact, the girls of Gloucester High School made national headlines and Jamie Lynn Spears left her Nickelodeon stage to set up a nursery — it's been a big year for teenage pregnancy. And, perhaps the finale of it all is the recent announcement that Bristol Palin is expecting. Did you, or would you, use any of these instances to initiate a conversation with your kids about sex or teenage pregnancy?Source and Source

Variety has issued its annual Women's Impact Report, highlighting women who have made an impression at all levels of entertainment. Just like last year, the list includes executive powerhouses, household-name performers, and lesser-known talents. Over the next couple of weeks, I'll be spotlighting some of the women whom I find particularly noteworthy.

OK, look: we all gotta make a living, I understand that. But this commercial for the family resort Atlantis featuring the Moldy Peaches single "Anyone Else But You" is kind of crazy. The song was made famous by Juno and to many it will remain a delicate and simple love song that Paulie Bleeker (Michael Cera) and Juno (Ellen Page) sing to each other.

The hairy and the hairless were out in force at the Mojo Honours List 2008 ceremony in London last night. Living legends were the order of the day as Jimmy Page, Lemmy, Nick Cave, Neil Diamond and John Lydon walked the red carpet alongside Alex Turner, Miles Kane and Belle & Sebastian. Gorgeous blonde Duffy picked up one award (from her three nominations) for "Mercy", which won Song Of The Year.

One of my favourite recent movies – Juno – is released on DVD on Monday, and I'm super-happy I can add it to my collection.
If you didn't catch it at the cinema, it's a warm-hearted film centered on 16 year old Juno Macduff (Ellen Page). She's an uber-hip girl who finds herself pregnant after sleeping with her best friend Bleeker (Michael Cera) and decides to give her baby up for adoption to a perfect couple.

And no, multiple viewings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show doesn't really count. I'm talking about the movies that so captivated your imagination you just had to go back for more. Or the movies that were such a fun event, you piggiebacked along with different friends and family members to keep the party going all weekend.

This Sunday June 1, the MTV Movie Awards will strike again and while they aren't the most prestigious awards around, they at least get creative with their nomination categories. My favorite: Best Kiss.
Here are the nominees:
- Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey, Enchanted
- Briana Evigan and Robert Hoffman, Step Up 2 the Streets
- Shia LaBeouf and Sarah Roemer, Disturbia
- Ellen Page and Michael Cera, Juno
- Daniel Radcliffe and Katie Leung, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
I would love it if Ellen Page and Michael Cera won and then reenacted their kiss during the acceptance speech.

The Wackness was one of the films that received a lot of buzz during the Sundance film festival — even taking home the 2008 Audience Award. When I first heard about the film it was hard to piece together what this thing would be about, especially with the bizarre combo of Mary-Kate Olsen and Ben Kingsley.
Finally, The Wackness has a trailer and I can see that the story centers around some teenagers mostly concerned with "chillin'" in New York.
