Being a former boy bander really has its privileges … especially when you consider that *NSync member Lance Bass can’t seem to do anything without having a gaggle of super hot dudes around him at almost all times. Lance recently went on holiday with friends(?) including Brazilian screenwriter Gustavo Marzolla (who he appears to be very close with by the look of some of the photos) in Ecuador and photos of the pals have made their way to the Internets … natch:

Whenever Lance goes on vacay with the boys you can expect lots of skin, rock hard abs and his trademark “hang ten” hand salute in the photographic evidence. After the jump, check out a few photos of Lance with his boys in paradise …

Lindsay Lohan is featured on the cover and in the pages of the 10th anniversary issue of Nylon magazine. In her coverstory interview, Lindsay talks about her love of photoshoots, her opinion on Britney Spears and alludes to a new film project with Sean Penn … and hopefully Seth Rogan. Here is Lindsay on the cover of the 10th Anniversary issue of Nylon and some excerpts from her coverstory interview:

It’s our 10th anniversary, so we knew our cover had to be huge. That meant only one thing: Lindsay Lohan. The starlet and self proclaimed “tabloid obsession” sits down with NYLON for a candid chat.

On her future: I’m talking to [lots of people]. One is Sean Penn – I spoke to him again the other day. We’re trying to get Seth Rogen for this project, but Seth won’t call us back. So call us back, Seth, if you’re reading this!

Oooh! Another scintillating interview with L. Lo. I really hope the full interview has more to than these quotes hint at. Tho, what more can be asked of Lindsay Lohan that hasn’t been asked already? After the jump, check out a few photos from her photospread — you know you want to see more pics of Lindsay posing with a cigarette …

Here are a couple photos of actor James Franco, who we last saw in the films Milk and Pineapple Express, on the NYC set of his new movie Howl. James plays famed Beat poet Allen Ginsberg in the film that tells the tale of the obscenity trial that took place in the 1950’s that attempted to censor his now classic poem Howl:

While Jack Kerouac is my fave writer from the Beat generation, I’ve read quite a bit of Ginsberg’s poetry, including Howl, and absolutely love the idea of James Franco playing the poet. This would be the second role in a year where Franco plays a gay man … are we beginning to see a pattern? I absolutely hope so :) After the jump, check out a few more pics of Franco on the Howl set this week …

Depending on your point of view, in this new photospread she is either lookin’ a lot like Xtina Aguilera, a lot like Lady GaGa or a lot like Xtina Aguilera ripping off Lady GaGa. Here is Nicole’s new BlackBook magazine coverphoto:

She looks great … and, yes, she looks a lot like the latest looks from both Xtina and GaGa. After the jump, check out the rest of the photos from this photospread and be prepared for a lot of neon brashness …

Well, well, well, well … it looks like Whitney Port, from MTV’s The Hills & The City, broke up with her boyfriend Jay Lyon just in time to catch a bigger (and much, much hotter) fish. Life & Style magazine is reporting that Whitney and Lipstick Jungle hottie Robert Buckley were spied lookin’ pretty cozy in Miami, FL where the pair were playing co-hosts at the Havaianas Spring Break event at the Shore Club on Wednesday. HMMM. Considering what a hawt piece of man Robert Buckley is, I can’t say that I can blame Whitney for going for it ;) Here is a pic of the pair together in Mimai and the L&S report on their supposed hook-up:

It looks like Whitney Port isn’t wasting any time getting over ex-boyfriend Jay Lyon! Sparks are already flying between The City’s Whitney and Lipstick Jungle actor Robert Buckley, an insider tells Life & Style. The duo were both in Miami to host the Havaianas Spring Break event at the Shore Club on March 18. “Whitney and Rob hung out together all day. They were even holding hands!” an insider tells Life & Style. “There was definitely something in the air!” But the passion really ignited at dinner later that night. “Whitney and Rob joined about 10 of their friends for dinner at Nobu. They got quite cozy and started making out like crazy!” the insider reveals. To cap off the sultry evening, the two partied the night away! “They hit the town together after dinner.” says the insider. Juicy new romance or a spring fling? Only time will tell…

You know, if this report is true and something does come from this Spring fling … then Whitney Port is one lucky girl. Robert Buckley is a total cutie and, from what I understand, a really cool guy. I’m not sure I totally believe the details of this report but, again, I can’t say that I would blame Whitney one bit for trying to get into Robert’s pants. Wouldn’t it be great if Robert started showing up on The City? OMG! Olivia Palmero would DIE! OK, mebbe not … the show might be beneath him … buy any Robert Buckley is more than welcome as far as I’m concerned. My gut tells me that these two are not and will not become an item … which is deffo a loss for Whitney. What do y’all think … do you like these two together?

OY! I am tired and beat … all this South by Southwest fun is beatin’ my ass up! It wasn’t that long ago that I used to have the kind of stamina that it takes to go all day long from concert to concert without much sleep … but I guess in my old age, that ability has died down a bit. I have to say, tho, that I am having the best time ever tho. I made my first SxSW friend yesterday, got to see a few amazing performances and even got to dance a little bit. Day Two was really fun and really packed ;) I started out by grabbing a bite to eat at the nearest Chick-Fil-A:

The day just got better from there. I met my new friend Devin while we were waiting in line to see The Von Bondies perform at the Bat Bar inside the Austin Convention Center. We hit it off and hung out for the VB show and then made our way to the Peter Murphy show that was right after. We lost touch at that show but met up later on in the night. After Peter, I made my way to La Zona Rosa to await Tori Amos and saw Gabriella Cilmi and Erin McCarley who performed before Tori’s set — they were both really great. On the advice of Neil Gaiman, I hauled my ass all the way across town as soon as Tori’s performance was over to see Amanda Palmer … which is where I met up with my friend Devin. So many great performances!!! Here are pics of the artists that I saw yesterday:

The Von Bondies were so great … it was the first time I saw them perform outside of Detroit. They looked and sounded amazing. The new stuff is really good. Peter Murphy was just fabulous … he was in total Grand Dame mode and seemed to be having a great time. Gabriella Cilmi was a nice surprise … her cover of Justin Timberlake’s Cry Me A River was pretty rad. Erin McCarley was another new find for me. I’m deffo gonna have to pick up her album … and I may see her again tonight. She did a great version of Tom’s Diner by Suzanne Vega … totally killed it!! Tori was heavenly, as I already mentioned HERE and Amanda Palmer … wow! So far, she is my fave new discovery. Her raw passion and talent is really inspiring. She reminds me a bit of Ani DiFranco on piano. I am gonna get as much of her music as I can as well.

After the long day, I needed a drink … so Devin suggested we head over to Oil Can Harry’s for a beverage or two … which was great cuz the club was hosting a nekkid boy in underwear contest :) Not a bad way to unwind. Devin and I hung out for a bit and then I decided to call it a day by 2am. So much fun, tho. I have to give a shout-out to all the people I got to meet yesterday like Steve, Katie, Carrie and Laurie … there were others and I wish I could remember all the names but, alas, I failed to jot them down :( Here are pics of me with Pink readers Erica and Brittany at the Tori show and Javier from the Red Bull party the night before:

Tonight I’m meeting up with my friend Rachel for dinner and then I’m planning to see the Detroit band the Javelins and Melissa Auf Der Maur. I’m sure I’ll squeeze in some other shows too so … the fun never stops :) Seriously tho, I’m gonna need a vacation from this vacation. I hope I can make it thru ’til Sunday. OY!!
