Howard Stern sidekick Artie Lange has been released from the Jersey City hospital where he has been recovering from a suicide attempt last weekend. The troubled comedian stabbed himself nine times in his Hoboken, NJ, apartment before his mother discovered his bloodied body and called 911 early last Saturday.
“Mr. Lange was found by his mother at 9:36 a.m. on Saturday,” Hoboken Police Det. Lt. Mark Dompetello told E! News today. “She called 911 when she found him in a pool of blood. He was semiconscious [and] then became unconscious. Our medics came. Apparently he had nine self-inflicted knife wounds, and it was ruled to be an apparent attempted suicide. There’s no active criminal investigation.”
The tragic comedian has battled depression, weight problems, and drug and alcohol addiction for the better part of his life. This suicide attempt by Artie was not his first. In his book, Too Fat To Fish, the Stern colleague details attempting suicide back in 1995 by overdosing on thirty pills of Resterol (a sleep aid), Excedrin PM, and a pint of whiskey.
Hopefully, this time Artie will get the help he needs.
Apple is planning to build a new Palo Alto store to serve as a “prototype” for future Apple Stores, featuring a completely transparent front and an indoor atrium “feel.” The revised, more open design will serve as a “commons for [Apple’s] community to gather,” according to documents filed with the City of Palo Alto’s Architectural Review Board.
Though Apple is not named in the filing, uncovered by Silicon Valley Mercury News, the architect for the project is Bohlin Cywinski Jackson, who also designed the 5th Avenue Apple Store in New York. That store is well known for its large glass cube entryway for the underground retail area, open 24/7. Palo Alto planning manager Amy French told the Mercury News that it is her understanding that the location will be a new Apple Store.
“Apple is pretty secretive about that kind of stuff,” ARB chair Alexander Lew told the Mercury News. “But at the same time, when you look at it, the design is pretty unique—I think a lot of people have kind of guessed [that it’s an Apple Store],” he said.
The filing notes that the project will replace the façade of the current unoccupied retail structure at 340 University Avenue with a glass front that will make the street “part of the store’s interior” so that “the energy of the store is shared directly with the street and the larger community.”
In addition to the open glass façade in front, the roof will be modified to include large, open skylights. The natural light coming in will help three large trees, planted near the rear of the store, to grow inside. These features, along with materials choices and other energy efficiency design cues, will qualify the remodeled building for LEED certification.
The renovated location will occupy 10,700 square feet. The existing Palo Alto Apple Store, located just a block away, is about 6,500 square feet. The added space will include plenty of room to offer training for businesses and individual consumers.
The ARB recommended that the city approve Apple’s proposed renovations in a unanimous vote.
It’s been a big week of sequels for LG at CES 2010; first they launch the LG Lotus’ slightly-upgraded sibling, the Lotus Elite, and now they’re following up the LG Rumor with the finger-centric Rumor Touch.
The LG Rumor Touch is a feature phone, but it’s probably about as fancy as feature phones come before you start wondering why the didn’t pack a bigger, badder operating system on it. It’s got a 3″ WQVGA touchscreen, 2 megapixel camera, support for up to 32GB of storage via microSD, and support for Sprint 3G. In terms of availability, LG is only going as far as to say it’s coming “in the first quarter”, and they won’t say a word about pricing. The past 2 Rumors have launched at $49.99 – but considering the touchscreen upgrade and the $99 price tag on the similar Lotus Elite, I’d wager that this thing will come in somewhere between $100 and $150 at launch.

Peugeot SR1 Concept – Click above for high-res image gallery
French automaker Peugeot will pull the wraps off a brand-new concept vehicle called the SR1 at the Geneva Motor Show in March. Unlike a number of recent Peugeot cars and concepts, the SR1 isn’t hallmarked by quirky, love-it-or-hate-it styling. Instead, we see a somewhat traditional long-hood, short-deck profile with some interesting details, such as the creased indentation in the doors that’s echoed in both the front and rear fascias. Also note the redesigned Lion logo, which we surmise will show up on all future Peugeots from here on out.
Power for the SR1 (which, of course, has nothing at all to do with the Corvette ZR1) comes courtesy of Peugeot’s HYbrid4 technology, which pairs a small 1.6-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engine powering the front wheels with a 95-horsepower electric motor at the rear. Peugeot says that its all-wheel drive, through-the-road hybrid system will make its production debut in 2011 inside the 3008 crossover, with other models to closely follow.
Other concept-appropriate bits and pieces include a new removable plastic roof panel using technology that’s borrowed from the world of sailing, a three-seat layout with the third passenger behind the twin front seats and instrumentation that pairs futuristic crystal tubes displaying current fuel consumption and remaining range with a classic timepiece designed by Bell & Ross. Continuing the old versus new theme are black nickel and satin chrome trim with traditional wood and leather inlays.
With 313 combined horsepower, fuel mileage estimated at 57.7 mpg (European, 48 miles per gallon U.S.) and carbon emissions of just 119 grams per kilometer, the Peugeot SR1 ought to be a mean, green performer. Plus, its speed-sensitive four-wheel steering and lightweight structure should equal formidable handling prowess. Of course, we may never know for sure, as this car, though it apparently signals Peugeot’s new styling direction, is nothing more than a concept at this point.
The Nexus One is an over-hyped Android phone. But that doesn’t stop it from being the best Android phone. It is, for two reasons: Hardware and software.
Despite the buzz, it’s not revolutionary, certainly not because of the way it’s being sold—unlocked for $530 or subsidized, with a T-Mobile contract for $180. Sure, Google created its own web store that breaks the act of purchasing the device away from choosing a carrier—it’ll soon even be sold by Google for use on the Verizon network. But people have been doing this for years by buying unlocked GSM phones from Nokia and Sony Ericsson and hooking them on to any GSM provider. It’s just not the giant step forward that everyone was expecting.
Specs
Quickly, the specs. The Nexus One—built for Google by HTC—has a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 512MB RAM, 32GB-capable microSD slot, a 3.7-inch AMOLED capacitive touchscreen display at 800×480, a 5-megapixel camera with LED flash and 720×480 video capture @ 20FPS, dual microphones for noise canceling and a trackball. There is no slide-out keyboard—everything’s done with the onscreen virtual keyboard.
On paper, those specs are impressive. In actuality, each bit has its own quirk that makes the Nexus One less than perfect and just good. The 5-megapixel camera is built by HTC in such a way that the bezel around the ring juts out noticeably from the otherwise smooth back. The bulge protrudes just enough to either scratch surfaces that it’s placed on, like your glass table or your laptop, or even scratch the lens if you’re unlucky enough to rub it over something rough.
The AMOLED screen is gorgeous, and all the colors pop to the point that it makes both the iPhone 3GS and the Droid look washed out. It’s really, really good. And it has a generous 480×800 resolution—slightly shorter than the Droid’s, but still very ample for a phone, when compared to the iPhone’s 320×480. But, again, as good as the screen looks, it doesn’t have multitouch support in the US. No matter what the reason for that is, it’s frustrating to the end user. But, on the bright side, every input you’re giving it is more responsive than on the Droid, because of the improved internals.
Design
The Nexus One is probably HTC’s best looking phone to date. The body is made up of two different materials: a metallic bezel that surrounds the front and side of the phone, which curves around to a custom-engraveable strip on the back. The battery cover and bottom of the phone are both covered in a rubbery plastic material that’s solid and grippy, yet soft and pleasant. It’s also thinner and lighter and curvier than the iPhone 3GS, and is much less sharp and masculine than the Droid.
Besides the requisite power and volume rocker buttons, there are five “buttons” on the face: one trackball and four haptic-based touch buttons. The trackball is basically useless—you’ll only use it for its color-based notifications that tell you that you have a new email, text message or missed call without having to turn on the screen. As for using it as a scrolling device, the fact that scrolling around the OS or a webpage gives you inconsistent results depending on what “element” of the screen you land on means the ball is essentially useless for navigation. However, you will have to use it for text selection, because you can’t hold your finger down to move the cursor—you have to use the ball to navigate to exactly where you want.
The four touch buttons for homescreen, back, menu and search do have haptic feedback when you hit them, but they’re not that phenomenal either. Half the time they don’t register a press when you want them to, and the other half of the time they think you’re hitting it when you just wrapped your hand around the phone slightly too far.
You don’t get a rocker switch for silencing the phone without looking, like on the Pre or the iPhone, but you can do the same thing quickly from the lock screen by swiping across the screen to the left. (Swiping to the right unlocks the phone.)
Software
The Nexus One runs on Android 2.1, which will make its way to many other phones, like the Droid, fairly soon. This means that all these great features will be available on some older phones—HTC and Moto for sure—so you may not have to buy all new hardware to take advantage of these capabilities. And take advantage you will.
As soon as you turn on the phone you’ll notice the live wallpapers, which are essentially animated backgrounds that you can interact with. They’re fairly useless, even if there are a couple that retrieve data in realtime, like blades of grass against a sky that mimics the actual time of day, or an analog sound meter whose needle moves to the music you’re playing. The other guys at Giz put it this way: There’s no reason for something like this to exist, and it sucks up your battery unnecessarily, but it might be the single coolest reason to get this phone right now.
This same engineer-driven “can we do this?” paradigm is evident in other parts of Android 2.1 as well. The photo gallery thumbnails tilt into or out of the screen as you tilt the phone, which is superfluous and fairly distracting. And the apps screen is even worse. You bring it up by hitting the apps button, which zooms the icons in in 3D. Then, instead of just quickly scrolling onto or off the screen, it wraps around as if on the surface of a cube. This would be fine if the extra 3D effect—added because they can—didn’t cause any slowdown, but it does. There’s a noticeable lag when you’re flipping up, which makes us wish Google had eliminated the effect and let you just scroll through your programs in 2D.
These effects are definitely cool, don’t get me wrong, but I’d prefer it of Google was spending its man hours on improving speed and performance (and getting multitouch on its apps) than putting in eye candy that doesn’t help usability.
But things aren’t all bad. There’s a new beta-ish version of voice recognition that lets you speak into almost any text field (the names field in email isn’t included for some reason, whereas the name field in text messages are).
Voice search works about 80% of the time, but you have to speak slowly and enunciate everything, and pronounce marks. And it doesn’t recognize some proper nouns, transcribing “Jesus” (pronounced the Spanish way) to “Hey Zeus,” Bruce Willis style. The major downside is that all the voice transcription is done in the cloud—you know, it’s Google—so you have to have a net connection to use it. It’s awesome to dictate text messages or emails, though I probably talk too fast and mumble too much for this to work well.
We’re still not big fans of typing on Android’s virtual keyboard. Sure, the keys are actually responsive now, thanks to the muscle of the 1GHz Snapdragon processor, but somehow Google’s word prediction still lags behind the iPhone’s, and gives you strange options for when you’re typing really fast on the phone. It’s less of a blast-and-forget than Apple’s virtual keyboards. And, coming from the iPhone, the keys here are spaced a bit too close together and a bit too tight, but if you actually prefer the iPhone’s style, you can download “Better Keyboard” from the Android Marketplace.
Real-World Use
It’s fast fast fast. Part of this is due to performance gains just from using Android 2.1—people who’ve hacked 2.1 onto the Droid have mentioned better speeds—but a lot of it is the 1GHz processor. Every single aspect of the phone is affected when you have faster hardware on board.
Battery life lasts around a day with normal use, which includes calling, browsing, Google Mapping, push Gmailing and clothed sexting. That’s on par with other smartphones now, and won’t see much change until we get a dramatic boost in battery technology.
T-Mobile’s 3G is decent, but not astounding. It really depends on where you are, how many other T-Mobile users are in your city and how deployed the 3G network is there. And if you want, you can download PDAnet from the Android Marketplace, and the accompanying PDAnet application for Windows/Mac, and tether the Nexus One to be a 3G modem on the go. This will work much better when the device is on Verizon—if you care to pay $30 a month to make it happen.
HTC placed two microphones on the device, one on the bottom and one on the back, for better noise cancellation. And the extra microphone pays off. The other party said that the Nexus One sounded, through their speaker, as loud as an iPhone 3G, but noticeably better. Not astoundingly better, just enough so that you’d mention it. But the speaker on the Nexus One, on the other hand, makes conversations sound tinny and thin. Actually, the better microphone setup is evident when you do a Nexus One to Nexus One conversation, because the resulting sound out of N1’s speakers is less tinny.
The speaker on the back of the phone, used for speakerphone and for speakers when playing music, is fine. Not fantastic, just fine.
The camera app loads up a lot faster than on the Droid, and shoots a lot faster than the Droid’s camera—but the image quality is similarly mediocre. Compared to HTC’s earlier Windows Mobile phones, whose cameras were passably bad, the Nexus One’s 5-megapixel camera is quite good, even if it doesn’t have the iPhone’s touch-to-focus.
What Does This All Mean?
Google’s Nexus One is the best Android phone available right now, and we’re seeing as high or higher interest in this than the Droid, which had Verizon’s million-dollar marketing campaign behind it. But, since T-Mobile’s 3G coverage (and voice coverage) is not as built out in certain areas, you might want to wait a few weeks until the phone is available on the Verizon network. (Google will sell that version, too.) And if you’re looking to buy this unlocked for AT&T, be aware that you won’t be able to use AT&T’s 3G network.
But why is Google working so closely with HTC to design the phone, and why is Google selling it themselves? Our theory is that Google’s injecting these devices into the market to make sure that OEMs are pushing forward with new Android versions, and the latest hardware available. They don’t want stagnation, like with the Windows Mobile market, and are willing to sink manpower and money into ensuring forward movement.
It might seem like selling the Nexus One directly from Google’s website is two middle fingers up to manufacturers who have been selling Android phones already. Not exactly. HTC’s still the manufacturer, and it sounded like—both from the subtext at the press event and the presence of Motorola’s Sanjay Jha—that a future Nexus Two might not be from HTC. Google’s spreading the love, essentially, to any manufacturer willing to make the “best” phone it can; one Google’s proud to attach its name to.
So What About the Nexus Two?
Google said it’s going to be a while until the Nexus Two, but “a while” probably means one year. The previous phones, T-Mobile’s G1 and the MyTouch 3G and even the Hero, don’t quite measure up to the Nexus One in terms of speed and performance. It’s really just like a little computer, so if you want to jump into Android, it’s pretty safe to do so now. Better yet, you can get this thing unlocked and out of contract for $530—keep whatever cheap T-Mobile plan you currently have—and resell it in a year when the Nexus Two is available.

Prosecutors in Los Angeles will seek an involuntary manslaughter indictment against the doctor suspected of giving Michael Jackson a lethal dose of a sedative, The Associated Press reported Friday.
A law enforcement source told The AP that Houston physican, Dr. Conrad Murray, will be prosecuted on a theory of gross negligence.
Dr. Murray, who had been hired to help the King of Pop prepare for a marathon London concert series, was at the 50-year-old singer’s rented mansion when paramedics arrived on June 25, finding him unconscious. Suspicion has swirled around the doctor, who had offices in Las Vegas and Houston, ever since. Investigators have searched his home, offices and a storage locker he used.
Intel CEO Paul Otellini at CES announced an app store for applications on netbooks. The store is called AppUp Center, and it’s a place where users can purchase programs that cater to a netbooks’ unique screen size and mobility. Intel AppUp center launched today for Windows and will support Moblin-based open source operating systems and a number of runtime environments later this year.
The first set of apps are now available for download, for free or to purchase, and more will be added as they are validated. App categories include entertainment, business, games, education, health and social media. Additionally, Acer, ASUS, Dell and Samsung have announced plans to collaborate with Intel on their own app stores.
According to Intel, by participating in the program, developers gain access to the fast-growing, consumer-centric computing netbook category. In addition, developers gain revenue opportunities from the netbook-installed base, and potentially hundreds of millions of other Intel processor-based computers and devices — should Intel and partner storefronts expand into new market segments.
Intel is also working with partners to bring the app stores to consumers. The partner stores give access to the developer and store services the Intel AppUp center offers. The services include validating and categorizing apps and utilizing a common transaction infrastructure to administer purchases and downloads for these tailored stores.
DigitTronics showed us their ultra fun RCX4 Star Stryker, a flying, hovering X-Wing fighter-clone that costs $399. It lasts about ten minutes on one charge. Anyone want one? They’re $100 off at the show.
If you’re out in the middle of the Yukon wilderness and really have to send a tweet about the moose you just killed and ate with your bare hands, Delorme’s PN-60w GPS is just the device you need.
Leveraging the SPOT satellite communicator/ messenger service to connect to internet services such as Twitter and Facebook, not to mention as SMS, you can maintain communications with the mainstream world even when you’re literally in the middle of nowhere (and no cell towers are to be seen). Going beyond a list of pre-written form messages, you can type custom message of your own to update the masses on your activities and whereabouts. The only problem? There’s no keypad, keyboard or touchscreen on the thing.
There’s also standard GPS features like mapping, a compass, emergency assistance and geocaching. As for availability, the PN-60w will be available in the spring for $450 on its own and $550 bundled with the SPOT communicator. In short, this thing is good if you’re a man of the wild, not so good if you spend most your time hunting for machiattos. [Delorme]
We had a chance to meet with Memorex this morning, and spotted a few cool items for you. Specifically, a charging device for you iProduct, some Wii accessories, and a pretty interesting mini-camcorder with a touch screen.
XtremeMac showed us a combination wall charger and li-ion battery pack. It’s got dual USB ports on the bottom, and has a 1 amp outbput to charge your devices quickly, and a fold out arm which turns it into a viewing stand. MSRP is $79.99, which seems a little steep for a fancy battery pack. Maybe we’ll see it a little cheaper when it actually comes out in 2Q2010.
For the Wii, Memorex has a new racing wheel that ensures that you have access to all your buttons (including the trigger underneath), and supports the MotionPlus. The best part is the price, it comes individually for $9.99, or as a family three pack for $24.99.
The most interesting thing we saw was a new mini-camcorder. It’s got a few features to set it out from the pack; it shoots in full 1080p, the entire back of it is a touch screen, and it will reportedly support an external microphone and there are even rumors of a wireless setup, making this a potentially great camera for video blogging. The new camera should be available this fall, with an MSRP of $169.
We also saw some new iPhone/iPod docks, which are necessarily a new thing, but they are a little different. The design is definitely sleek, and what made me notice them is that the iPhone or iPod is actually protected when it’s docked. We don’t have a lot of information about these products yet, but we’ll let you know the details when we find out more.
Phonescoop grabbed a quick interview with Ms. Blue Lagoon herself, Brooke Shields at the LG booth. While she recited the regular marketing claptrap she had a little bit to say about AT&T and the iPhone:
PS: Why did you get an iPhone?
Brooke: First I got it because it was cool. I felt comfortable with the touch screen. The email was great. Texting was great. I was so happy that I could film my kids and take pictures of them and share them with my husband, The phone was a big problem, though. My time is limited, and when I have a few moments to call my kids, I don’t want the call to drop. That’s what happened with the iPhone.
If Ms. Shields is against you, AT&T, who can be for you?
Congrats to Phonescoop’s Eric Zeman, above, for being allowed to go near women again.
Kodak showed us their clever little Slice and Playsport cameras. The Slice is a touchscreen point and shoot and the SportPlay is a completely waterproof mini-camcorder. Both aren’t quite ready and will be available in the Spring of this year but both are pretty cool.
The Slice has a large rear screen with touch controls. You slide through photos with your fingers and then tap little icons to set sharing. Dave wrote up the main specs:
The cutely named Slice is a seemingly typical P&S camera, albeit with a 14MP sensor and the previously mentioned touchscreen interface. It’ll shoot 720p 30 FPS video, features image stabilization and a lithium ion battery, just like the other cameras in this market segment. Kodak really isn’t doing anything new with the Slice, however I will have to admit I do like the look of the little guy. The price may be a bit of a problem though, it’s going to MSRP for $350 which might be a bit steep for the casual purchaser. Expect to see the Kodak Slice at your favorite electronics retailer sometime in April 2010.
Video after the jump.
The Playsport shoots at 1080p and has an HDMI out along with an SD card slot for expansion. It is rubberized and the slots are kept safe and dry with little flaps. It will cost $140 Both will be available in April.
Pixel Qi‘s magic transforming displays seemed too good to be true: One screen that’s both a bright, full color LCD and a reflective, E-Ink quality display for reading in light. It is pretty damn incredible.
It’s not hard to see the overall trend with gadgets: They’re being reduced almost entirely to the display. Which is why, in this near-future vision of a single tablet thing that does everything—computer, video screen, reader—what Pixel Qi’s doing simply makes sense. If you’re carrying something that’s basically just a screen, and expect it to do lots of different things, a screen that adapts to precisely what you’re doing is how it has to be.
In the Pixel Qi display’s current form, it’s impressive, though nowhere near perfect. In its backlit LCD mode, it’s just about as good as any other 10.1-inch, 1024×600 netbook display, except that the viewing angle seems more limited, before the color started warping. Head on, color seems solid. Though it won’t win any illumination showdowns, it’s plenty bright—Pixel Qi won’t reveal how many nits it’s at when running at full brightness. How it handled motion was a bit harder to gauge, given the quality of the available video clip. On the Lenovo S10 used as the demo unit, it immediately switched to the electrophoretic reflective mode—where backlighting is replaced by ambient light reflecting off the back of the screen. In that mode, it really is just as crisp as the Kindle for reading text. You can watch video in this mode too, though it’s not exactly pretty (the point being you don’t have to wait 10 years for the damn screen to refresh when you turn a page). They wouldn’t speculate on how much battery life improves when you turn off the backlight, simply stating that it saves you 2 watts of power.
Pixel Qi CEO Mary Lou Jepsen says that they’ve signed up more fabs to produce their displays, which doesn’t just mean they’re on track to produce “millions” of them this year, but that they’ll be able to produce different sizes, for different form factor devices, meaning we should see them in a lot of different things over the next year or so. (Tablets! Netbooks! Phones?!) Probably, we’ll see the first stuff later this year. Device makers using the screen have got full multitouch running, since in terms of adding capabilities like capacitive touch, it’s just like any other LCD. Which is the real advantage here: Their screens are made using existing LCD factories and existing LCD technology, which is why we don’t have to wait for years to see them in the real world. (Pixel Qi works a bit like the chip designer ARM—the design the screens, license the tech, and somebody else makes ’em.)
In a battle against e-ink, which has so many obvious limitations, this really is the projected winner. We still need to see this thing in a device that’s capable of running for “days” without a recharge, but we are hoping for that soon.
I’d say it’s two generations away from being perfect enough—a wiiiider viewing angle, much higher resolution—for a truly finicky company to put these screens in their tablet or notebook, but it’s clear, I think, that a screen like this one is the key to a future where everything is about the screen.

The recent cold spell across the U.S. has ushered in the return of $3 gas, which some economists think is enough to put a dent in consumer spending, reports CNNMoney.com.
The average price of an unleaded gallon of gas in the U.S is approximately $2.71, according to AAA.
Prices have gone up by 7 cents in the past week, and now are now higher than they were during at any point last year.
Natural gas prices have also jumped thanks to the U.S. cold spell, which will create an additional headache for consumers since it could raise the cost to heat their homes.
Researchers recently learned that Quercetin, a popular antioxidant, inhibits the synthesis of proteins needed for Hepatitis C replication.
Natural compound blocks hepatitis C infection
Finding may lead to a new treatment
January 4, 2010: Researchers have identified two cellular proteins that are important factors in hepatitis C virus infection, a finding that may result in the approval of new and less toxic treatments for the disease, which can lead to liver cancer and cirrhosis.
An estimated 270 to 300 million people worldwide are infected with hepatitis C and the conventional treatments – interferon and ribavirin – can have significant side effects. A new drug targeting cellular proteins rather than viral proteins would be a valuable addition to the treatment arsenal, said Samuel French, an assistant professor of pathology and senior author of the study.
French and his team set out to identify the cellular factors involved in hepatitis C replication and, using mass spectrometry, found that heat shock proteins (HSPs) 40 and 70 were important for viral infection. HSP 70 was previously known to be involved, but HSP 40 was linked for the first time to hepatitis C infection, French said. They further showed that the natural compound Quercetin, which inhibits the synthesis of these proteins, significantly inhibits viral infection in tissue culture.
O esboço artístico do novo MINI SUV ainda sem nome vazou recentemente na internet para o delírio dos fãs da marca Mini que planeja apresentá-lo em Março.
Nós já vimos muitas fotos espiãs desse modelo camuflado em testes, mas os desenhos apesar de em preto e branco mostram claramente os detalhes do veiculo escondidos pela camuflagem nas fotos espiãs.
Ele se caracteriza por ser maior que as versões anteriores do Mini com rodas grandes e uma lateral mais longa podendo ser vendido nas versões de 3 e 5 portas.
A versão básica desse modelo será vendida por nada menos que 22.000 Euros.
It may be time to stop looking at Amanda Bynes as the cute little comedienne from Nickelodeon’s The Amanda Show – perhaps the image of the blonde stunner all grown up and slithering around the Feb. issue of Maxim in her bra and panties will help with the transition.
“I had the best time on this shoot,” the former What I Like About You star says in a new interview with the men’s mag. “I think every shot I did was sexy. Some people still see me as a kid, but I’m a 23-year-old woman now.”
“I want to show people who I am,” she adds. “My parents were like, “Does this mean you’re gonna do sexy movies now?” I said, “Well, if they’re done the right way, then maybe!’ I mean, I’m not gonna do porn, but if it’s a Leonardo DiCaprio movie or whatever…”
