Ever wonder what that catchy song featured on the new Old Navy commercial is?? Well after seeing it so many times during the award show season this past month, I have done some research and found this fabulous artist and song, both which I can't get enough of. And considering it's the last day of February, I figured what perfect timing to share this bit of news...
WHO: Lights
WHAT: "February Air"
WHERE: Her MySpace Page (You must add her as a friend!)
And just for fun, a clip of the Old Navy commerical:

Owen and Kate doing the "nasty"
According to this week's Us Weekly mag Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson may be back at it again. After Owen's suicide attempt, Kate must be ready to give Owen another chance at love. She broke it off with him because of the lack of attention she was receiving from him due to his part hardy ways. It's kinda weird that Owen, who's' knocking on 40's door, parties more than Kate at 28.
"They are hooking up," a Wilson insider told Us. Confirms a Hudson source, "They have definitely been talking, hanging out and, yes, hooking up."

Season 5!
Tim spills the beans:
A fifth "Project Runway" season is in the works, Gunn said.
"We begin auditions next month," he said. "We always tape in June. So we have to get a great group of designers together if we're going to start taping in June."
Sounds like they are angling for another fresh batch of designers, dashing the hopes of some for an "all-star" cast of former contestants. Stay tuned for audition dates and locations. Designers, time to get sewing. Thanks to Jessica for the tip!

The World Premiere of Eleven Minutes
The feature documentary Eleven Minutes will have its world premiere at the Philadelphia Film Festival. Mark your calendars and plan be among to first audience to see this film that chronicles the journey of Jay McCarroll to his first independent showing at Fashion Week in September of 2006. The Philly event is scheduled for April 5th at 7:15 and plans are in the works for a party after to celebrate the film, Jay and the filmmakers Michael Selditch and Rob Tate who also created Project Jay.
Team BPR has screened this film and we can tell you that it is riveting. The movie's synopsis tells us it is "an in-depth, painfully raw and humorous exploration of the creative process and the constant conflict of balancing commerce with art, fame with talent, and reality-TV with actual reality." I had no idea how much work and how many people are involved in planning a Fashion Week show. There is tension, there is humor there is triumph and there is pathos all for eleven minutes on a runway. We give this 6 enthusiastic thumbs up.
Save the date, Philly, and more announcements about this event will be forthcoming as plans are developed. There will also be screenings at the Independent Film Festival of Boston,
the Miami Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, and the New Filmmakers Screenings which has announced their showing for June 25th at 8:15 in NYC. As a fan of Project Runway and fashion you do not want to miss the opportunity to see this film!

BPR Interview With Sweet P
From the Hell's Belles motorcycle club through the underground club scene in LA, few have had a more improbable path to the cast of Project Runway than Sweet P. Our hearts melted when she congratulated Chris and Rami after being the last designer eliminated, but in the end she got to show in Bryant Park anyway. BPR checks in with the popular designer who truly lives up to her name.
BPR: Sweet P, we were thrilled when we saw you appear from behind the scrim at the Project Runway Finale. What was the inspiration for your collection?
Sweet P: My inspiration for the collection was Lee Miller (who I notice is beingwritten about a lot lately). Lee Miller was Man Rays model, muse and girlfriend. She was also a photographer. Lee was ahead of her time. I would call her a modern day Chloe Sevigny. She is a bold , strong woman who has her own sense of style. She is not afraid to wear color in a sea of black. My muse is a hip, pulled together downtown girl.
BPR: Did you receive the same amount of time and budget as the other designers?
Sweet P: Yes
BPR: What was the best thing about appearing on Project Runway?
Sweet P: Meeting and bonding with all the other designers.
BPR: The hardest?
Sweet P: Lack of sleep

Tori Tells All
In her upcoming autobiography, Tori Spelling is revealing that Donna Martin wasn’t the only one who had a crush on David Silver.“I had an insta-crush on Brian Austin Green,” Spelling reveals in excerpts to People. “Brian was the guy on the show my age. We had something going over the years we worked together. We were always fighting, making up, having fun and hating each other. We were just young.”
Not only does Spelling reveal the chemistry that the whole world may have been rooting for, but she also dishes out some other interesting dirt:
Shannen Doherty’s confirmed bad-girl image.
“A night with [Shannen] meant going to the hottest club and drinking until the early hours. I knew she was a ‘bad influence,’ but I liked her anyway.”
Doherty and Jennie Garth’s rocky relationship.
“Shannen had everything, but she could be arrogant and carefree. Jennie [Garth] was outspoken when she thought Shannen was out of line. Sometimes they got along, but there were explosions. Once they got into a fistfight.”
Luke Perry’s nickname for Spelling.
“As for Luke Perry, he called me ‘Camel’ because I had long eyelashes. Trust me, Luke Perry can call you ‘Camel’ and make it sexy.”
For more 90210 drama and an inside look into Spelling’s life, look for sTori Telling to be in stores around March.
