A beautiful full "Snow Moon" will light up the sky on Monday evening, February 25, 2013. Some avid observers of the celestial wonders of the night sky historically refer to this February full moon as the "Full Hunger Moon," since hunting is often difficult in North America during this cold winter month, leaving food supplies scarce for ancient tribes. The best location to view tonight's full moon is from the beautiful Spanish Canary Islands. For those who can't make the trip, NASA's SPACE.com offers a free full moon webcast from the Slooh Observatory starting at 3:30 p.m. ET. Read on for more info and some fun full moon folklore!

"Silver Linings Playbook" beauty Jennifer Lawrence won over the hearts of both fans and critics alike during Sunday evening's 85th annual Academy Awards - not only did she ever-so-gracefully trip onstage while going up to accept the award for "Best Actress," but she apparently had some fun backstage flipping-off the paparazzi, taking shots, and flirting with actor Jack Nicholson. It's true - the 75-year-old "The Shining" star interrupted the 23-year-old starlet's post-Oscars interview with George Stephanopoulos to "hint" that he's thought about making her his next leading lady. Lawrence blushes as Nicholson slyly (and amusingly) whispers, "I'll be waiting"... and it's all caught on tape! We swear we can't make this stuff up! Read More »
Though LeBron James has admitted that he will never enter the Slam Dunk Contest, it looks like he can still pull off dunks worthy of the highest prize. In last night's warm-ups before he took the court with his Miami Heat teammates against the Clevland Cavaliers, "King James" messed around with some shots, eventually pulling off one of the most ridiculous dunks in NBA history. He manages to jump from right past the free-throw line, put the ball between his legs, switch hands, throw it off of the back board, run up, and slam it home. LeBron even impressed himself.

Kristen Stewart caused quite the media buzz this weekend, snagging multiple Razzie awards for her "mundane" performance in "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2" and for limping her way down the Red Carpet at Sunday evening's 85th annual Academy Awards. But of course Hollywood Life had to drag some Robert Pattinson relationship drama into the gossip mix, reporting that Stewart attempted to make her "Twilight" beau jealous on Friday night (Feb. 22) by flirting and partying with her longtime pal, CJ Romero. Apparently K-Stew "limped" into Romero's arms in a more-than-friendly way while hanging out with a group of guy friends in Los Feliz... and she did it while wearing one of R-Patz's shirts! But it looks like the seedy gossip outlet is just trying to make a big deal out of nothing (again) - Gossip Cop confirms that the embrace was totally platonic and that Romero is no way interested in Stewart romantically.
