There is no denying that Eugene Levy of American Pie fame is cute as hell, but his son Daniel Levy takes cute to a whole other level. Yes, Eugene's hipster TV son on Schitt's Creek is also his real-life son, and the handsome, bespectacled duo actually created the comedy series together. Dan certainly shares his dad's wit (and his seriously on-fleek eyebrows), but he is absolutely a star in his own right. Before playing David Rose on Schitt's Creek, he served as a cohost of MTV Canada's The After Show with Jessi Cruickshank, proving that the only thing hotter than a sense of humor is the ability to discuss The Hills. Just look at these pics and tell us that Daniel Levy isn't human perfection.

The CW's reality competition series "Oh Sit!" ends its first season this Wednesday, Oct. 3 at 8 p.m. -- right before a brand new episode of "Supernatural" -- and this time, they're keeping it all in the C-dub family. "Vampire Diaries" star Kat Graham will hit the stage to perform her latest hit, "Heartkiller," as the episode's musical guest. Check out a clip of the performance below.
"Oh Sit!" follows 12 contestants in a high-octane musical chairs competition, hosted by Jamie Kennedy and Jessi Cruickshank. The series was just renewed for a second season, along with fellow summer reality series "Breaking Pointe."
As for Graham, she'll step back into her Bonnie boots on "The Vampire Diaries" on Thursday, Oct. 11 at 8 p.m. Est. We'll see Bonnie take things just a little too far in a last-ditch effort to save Elena from turning into a vampire -- a move that will have major repercussions throughout the season.

Most of today's Videos of the Week are related to Channing Tatum's highly successful new movie 'Dear John', which released in the Us, Canada, and a few other countries on February 5th, just released in South Africa today, and has a sneak preview in Indonesia this weekend before it's official February 25th debut in that country.
We also have a video that was submitted by Fabulous Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan-Tatum fan Trecia T., and it's an oldie, but goodie, from their 'Step Up' days. Enjoy!
First up, we have what is hands downs my #1 favorite interview that Chan and co-star Amanda Seyfried did during the 'Dear John' press tour.
It was done on the Toronto leg of the tour, and you may recognize interviewer Jessi Cruickshank from "The Hills", "The City", and "Laguna Beach" after shows on MTV. I've learned that you can always count on Jessi for a laugh,...

What the eff. If Spencer Pratt is kidding, that'd be great. But given the size of this guy's ego, we're never sure. The Hills star discussed his thoughts on his wife's foray into music during the Miss Universe pageant, which was months ago. He just can't let go of the attention.
While many believed Heidi Montag was imitating Britney Spears, her husband believes that she's more than that. During an interview with Jessi Cruickshank, host of The Hills: The After Show, Speidi announced how they were on par with the late music icon Michael Jackson. Unbelievable.

It seems that Spencer Pratt really loves to make sensation. Just some days after telling reporters that he considers his wife Heidi Montag aka Heidi Pratt the next King of Pop, "The Hills" actor says he is currently in process of legally changing his name to King Spencer Pratt.
"I've decided since there is a Queen of England and a Prince William that there should be a king of America," Spencer says in a statement to Us Magazine. "I nominate myself for that role."
On August 26, Spencer Pratt said he thought Heidi Montag deserved a royal title as the "new, modern day, 2010 Michael Jackson". The reality TV star also considered the 22-year-old actress/singer, whom he married on April 25, "way bigger" than the late King of Pop. "For all we know, Heidi gets possessed with Michael Jackson's divine spirit," he told Jessi Cruickshank, the host of "The Hills:...

The glitterati gathered at the Gibson Amphitheatre to celebrate the past year in cinema at this year's MTV Movie Awards. But, more importantly, they strutted their stuff down the red carpet in chic (or, in some cases, totally chill) outfits.
The sun might have been beating down on the carpet, but that wasn't the only thing that kept celebrities looking hot, hot, hot — it was also their very unique style. Still, however creative the stars got with their looks (hey, Chris Isaac, way to bring back the dog-as-accessory fad with your adorable white puppy!), there were a few standout trends that caught our attention. And no, one of them is not leopard-print leotards, though we do give major props...
