Olivia Palermo has had plenty of experience working at a magazine, but now she's on the cover of one. The 24-year-old star of The City is featured front and center on the forthcoming issue of ASOS mag.

Olivia always looks put together on the hit MTV series, but she's looking even more chic in the photo spread for the UK mag, which was shot in Brooklyn, N.Y. She also opens up about the show and how things aren't exactly how they seem.

"It's unfortunate," she says of the reputation that the TV show has given her. "But I think that people understand what they see on that show is not who I am. It's not accurate. I'm funny, I'm enthusiastic and I'm not a negative person. I always try and look for the good in things."

Take a sneak peek at Olivia's stunning photos below. If you can't find the imported mag at your local newsstand, you can also check out the cover story now on Asos.com.

 

Taylor Swift's new single, 'Mine,' will be released in just a few weeks, and the 20-year-old country star is looking oh-so sweet on the cover art for the song, which is also embellished with handwritten lyrics.

The cover takes on the same look as Taylor's popular greeting card collection -- pretty, rustic and romantic. We expect that her forthcoming single will have the same sort of feeling.

"Every really direct example of love that I've had in front of me has ended in goodbye and has ended in breakups and things like that," Taylor said about 'Mine.' "So I think I've developed this pattern of sort of running away when it comes time to fall in love... This song is sort of about finding the exception to that."

Taylor's highly anticipated album, 'Speak Now,' will be released on October 25, and will include roughly 14 tracks of new material. 'Mine' is expected to debut in mid-August. What do you think of the single's cover art?

 

Katy Perry was recently named as the host of the 2010 Teen Choice Awards, but now Fox has confirmed that the guys of Glee will be sharing the stage with the pop singer as co-hosts.

Cory Monteith, Mark Salling, Chris Colfer and Kevin McHale will be on hand to MC the night, which celebrates the best in music, film, TV, sports and more. All of the coveted surfboard awards are determined by fan voting, so it really is the teens' choice.

Cory is nominated for Choice TV Actor: Comedy and the entire cast is up for Choice Music: Group, so the guys won't have to walk very far if they win. Glee is also repping in three additional categories -- the series is nominated for Choice TV Show: Comedy; Lea Michele is up for Choice TV Actress: Comedy; and Jane Lynch is vying for Choice TV: Villain.

There's going to be a whole lot of Glee in the house that night! Do you think the show will sweep the event? Tune into FOX at 8 p.m. ET on Monday, August 9 to find out.

 

We caught up with Charlie St. Cloud costars Zac Efron and Charlie Tahan earlier this month to talk about how they developed a brotherly bond, ['He baked me cookies.'], whether or not they played any pranks on the set and how Zac prepared for the tough emotional scenes in the film.

Here's what Zac had to say about that: "I tried to think of the circumstances, how it would be - I have a real little brother who's a lot like him, so if I was going through these scenarios, how I would feel."

What do you think about Zac's interview? Did he answer one of your questions? Meanwhile, Charlie St. Cloud is in theaters now. Have you seen it? Tell us what you thought in the comments and watch our interview with Amanda Crew (Tess in the movie) here.
