Candies.com has been updated with a whole slew of new very pink, very equestrian-themed promo photos featuring their new spokesmodel … the legendary Miss Britney Spears:

The last time Candie’s released promo pics was back in April but it looks like they are about to launch a new commercial onslaught based on Brit Brit’s newly released single/video Radar. As you may recall, the music video for Radar (which we saw here on the blog last week) features a very equestrian theme … and so do these new promo pics. After the jump, check ‘em out …

It’s been about a week since we’ve last checked in with Robert Pattinson on the NYC set of his new film Remember Me so I figured I’d post a couple of new pics that were snapped on set earlier today. Here are a couple photos of R. Pattz on set at Regis High School where filming took place today:

It looks like Mr. Pattinson has got a bit of scruff goin’ on in these photos … I’m not sure that I like it. I’m sure that all of these different looks that R. Pattz has been modeling during production of his new film will come together to tell a story. I wonder what the rabid legion of Twilighters think about a scruffy lookin’ R. Pattz. Does the look work for y’all?

Production continues on the NYC set of the hit CW series Gossip Girl as Chace Crawford was spotted filming new scenes for the show’s upcoming 3rd season with a new castmember. Here are pics of Chace and actress Joanna Garcia on the set of Gossip Girl earlier today:

As you may already know, Joanna Garcia starred on another CW series called Privileged but that show got canned so, thankfully, she got picked up to join Gossip Girl. It’s unclear what character she’ll be playing (sexy older woman? college teaching assistant?) but one suspects she’s just as rich as the GG kids are. The scenes filmed today were done on a heliport … so Garcia’s character prolly has a lot of cash. I can’t wait to see if she brings something new and exciting to the show.

Former Three’s Company star Joyce DeWitt was busted on charges of drunk driving over the weekend after she got caught driving past a traffic barracade. Upon closer inspection, DeWitt apparently smelled of booze and the rest, as they say, is history. She got busted, y’all:

TMZ has learned “Three’s Company” star Joyce DeWitt was arrested for DUI on July 4th in El Segundo, California. Law enforcement sources tell us DeWitt drove past a barricade Saturday afternoon — and when an officer approached her, she smelled like booze. She was given field sobriety tests and then arrested for suspicion of DUI. The 60-year-old actress, who played Janet Wood on the 80’s sitcom, posted bail for $5,000.

Dang. It sucks that Joyce DeWitt, who I loved as Janet on Three’s Company, would be foolish enough to allegedly endanger the lives of others by choosing to drive drunk. As much as I loved her on TV, I hope she and all other folks convicted of DUI are punished to the full extent of the law. When I heard of DeWitt’s arrest, I was reminded of when Dawn Wells (who played Mary Ann on Gilligan’s Island) got busted for marijuana possession last year. What’s with all the classic TV stars turning to a life of crime these days?

A couple weeks ago we got our first look at the amazing promo photos that have been released from Tim Burton’s new film Alice In Wonderland, featuring the beloved literary characters The Mad Hatter (played by Johnny Depp), The Red Queen (played by Helena Bonham Carter), The White Queen (played by Anne Hathaway) and more. The new issue of Vanity Fair magazine, the one with Heath Ledger on the cover, features another look at the full-size promo photos:

These photos are the same ones we saw previously but VF mag does publish the full-size photographs that the Technicolored promo pics were based on. After the jump, check them out for yourselves …

Like the rest of the 1.6 million people who registered for tickets to attend Michael Jackson’s memorial service at the Staples Center here in downtown LA tomorrow at 10AM, I kept checking my email inbox to find out if I had been selected as one of the lucky few who will be allowed to attend the services tomorrow …

… and in just a few hours I will find out for sure if I will be allowed to attend. If I am able to procure tickets for tomorrow’s service, I will do my best to share as much info from the service via Twitter (you can read my Twitter profile HERE) to try and include as many of y’all as possible in the service. If I am not allowed to attend, then I will be at home just like so many of you watching the events unfold on live television. I am hopeful that I will be successful but, well, you just never know until you get that wristband secured to your arm and those tickets are placed in your hand.

No big plans for tonight just yet … David and I have been invited to a fun event in WeHo that we may attend but we’ve not decided whether or not we’re going out. Keep those fingers crossed, hopefully Pink is the new Blog will be able to report live from the Michael Jackson memorial service tomorrow morning.
