The Duchess of Cambridge's little sister is looking mighty American in her red, white, and blues!
Pippa Middleton is currently enjoying her stay in New York City, and her visit has kicked the rumor mill into overdrive! The British socialite was spotted spending time with hotelier Andre Balazs over Labor Day Weekend, and although she's supposedly in town for business meetings, speculation is rampant there might be other reasons for her journey across the pond.
The 28-year-old brunette beauty was allegedly apartment hunting in the city with a realtor today, as the pair were spotted cabbing to various buildings. The party planner is expected to spend more time in the States as she promotes her new book, Celebrate: A Year of Festivities for Families and Friends.
Is romance also a motivating factor in her rumored move?
Pippa attended the U.S Open yesterday, where she was seated next to Spencer Vegosen, the son of the U.S Tennis Association. "There was definite chemistry between the pair," a source told the New York Post. The duo were later spotted enjoying a seafood dinner at Le Bernardin restaurant.

Despite the fact that she released her first album 9 months ago, Lana Del Rey has revealed in a new interview with Australian Vogue that she wants to break out in the film industry.
"When I was starting, I had a vision of being a writer for film and that's what I am doing now. I'm so happy," Lana told the mag. "Hopefully I will branch into film work and stay there. That will be my happy place. I'd like to stay in one place for a long time."
Del Rey also revealed that she often feels uncomfortable when onstage. "I love to take care of the songs – that's my natural place – then, when I get on stage that's not my element. Sometimes I kneel down because I am trembling or touch the audience because I don’t know what else to do." Well that would explain a lot!

The Duffster is still working on getting buff!
Hilary Duff hit up yet another Pilates class in Studio City yesterday, and the Lizzie Maguire star is clearly taking her post-baby slim down seriously! Clad in black spandex, a white t-shirt, and a leopard print scarf, the new mom already looks like she's lost most of the pregnancy pounds. You go girl!
Not that the 24-year-old enjoys the strict regime it takes to get your body back in tip top shape!
"Ordering salad dressing on the side depresses me. I know it's the right thing to do but honestly... Isn't it just depressing?!" she tweeted yesterday after her workout.

Look at that rock!
Kate Bosworth unintentionally let the cat out of the bag earlier this year when she referred to her director beau Michael Polish as her "fiance" in a blog post for Vogue travel, and now the Blue Crush star is confirming the happy engagement news and showing off her enormous diamond on her WhoSay page.
"This photo was taken by my husband-to-be. Thank you for all the wonderful engagement wishes... we feel truly blessed," she wrote to her fans.
The pair, who have been dating for over a year, met on the set of their movie Big Sur.
The Straw Dogs actress dated Pirates of the Caribbean actor Orlando Bloom for several years before moving on with True Blood hunk Alexander Skarsgard, with whom she split in July 2011.
Congrats on landing Prince Charming, Miss Bosworth!

Awkward alert!
Kanye West is known for his controversial lyrics, but you would think he would leave his girlfriend Kim Kardashian out of it! The reality star, who has been working for years to get the public to forget about her infamous sex tape with Ray J, is possibly the subject of the Grammy winner's new song "Clique." The track appears to make reference to his lady love's rise to fame after the release of Kim Kardashian: Superstar.
"Eat breakfast at Gucci. My girl a superstar all from a home movie," he raps on the tune, which will be featured on his new album Cruel Summer. We guess he's proud of her talents...
So is the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star embarrassed that the whole world can pay to see her in her most intimate moments?
"You know, I think that's how I was definitely introduced to the world. It was a negative way, so I felt like I really had to work 10 times harder to get people to see the real me," she explained to Oprah earlier this year.
Don't worry Miss Kardashian, we've all seen the real you, and apparently Kanye has too!

The hits just keep on coming for Amanda Bynes - literally!
The troubled actress has been officially charged with two counts of hit-and-run, facing up to a year in jail if convicted of the traffic crimes.
The Hollywood party girl almost got away with her first offense of smashing into another car and fleeing the scene, but when the same incident occurred again mere weeks later, prosecutors reopened the case from April and decided to press charges, according to TMZ.
Rumors swirled at the time of the incident that the Hairspray star was under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs, but those reports have never been confirmed and were not stated in the case against the 26-year-old.
She's due in court September 27th. Bynes' rep has yet to comment on the situation.

Former American Idol star Kellie Pickler has shaved her head in support for her friend, Summer Holt Miller, who was diagnosed with breast cancer back in June.
Pickler told GMA, "Cancer does not discriminate."
Miller added, "If this compels even one person to change their mentality toward waiting until the age of 40 for their mammogram, then it will be worth it."
