Aly Michalka and Ashley Tisdale cover the October 2010 issue of Seventeen magazine

Alyson Michalka and Ashley Tisdale star in the new CW cheerleading drama “Hellcats,” based on the book “Cheer: Inside the Secret World of College Cheerleaders” by Kate Torgovnick.

Michalka plays the role of Marti Perkins, a law student at Lancer University, who discovers that her scholarship has been canceled and her well-meaning but irresponsible mother, Wanda, has neglected to inform her. Broke and out of options, Marti realizes the only way she can stay in school is to win a place on the Hellcats – Lancer’s legendary cheer squad – and the scholarship that comes with it.

Tisdale plays Savannah Monroe, the captain of the Hellcats. Described as “peppy and petite” with “fierce intensity”, she initially clashes with Marti, but realizes she is the godsend the Hellcats need to win the championship.

Michalka is best known as part of the pop duo Aly & AJ (AJ is sister Amanda).  Tisdale is known for her role as Sharpay Evans in Disney’s High School Musical franchise.

Former Britney Spears bodyguard, Fernando Flores, filed a lawsuit Wednesday in L.A. County Superior Court alleging the pop star exposed herself to him, made unwanted sexual advances, and abused her children.

In the suit, obtained by TMZ, 29-year-old Flores claims:

On one occasion — in a scene right out of “Legally Blonde” — “She was wearing a white lace, see-through dress.  She walked over close by [Flores], intentionally dropped her cigarette lighter on the floor, bent over to retrieve it and thereby exposed her uncovered genitals to [Flores].”  The lawsuit goes on, “The incident caused [Flores] shock and disgust.”

The suit then goes on to describe another alleged instance where Britney summoned Flores to her room, where she was standing naked. The suit claims, “After an awkward silence during which [Britney] just stood naked before [Flores], [Flores] asked Spears if she needed anything.  After some hesitation, Spears asked [Flores] to get her two bottles of 7 Up.”

One time after allegedly exposing herself, the suit claims Britney said, “You know you liked it.”

And the suit says, “In addition to exposing herself to [Flores], Spears engaged in numerous sex acts in front of [Flores].”  There’s also an allegation Britney was “loudly having sexual relations” in a hotel suite where her kids were present.  The suit does not say if the kids saw anything.

And there is a more serious allegation — The suit claims on one occasion Britney allegedly demanded Flores’ belt, then walked in the house and allegedly twice “savagely hit the small child [Preston]” with the belt.

And the suit claims on another occasion Britney fed both kids crabmeat even though she knew they had serious fish allergies.  The suit claims both kids started vomiting and Spears allegedly prevented anyone from seeking medical help, allegedly telling them, “Mind your own f**king business!”

Flores, a former police officer,  left his job as Spears’ bodyguard in June,  and alleges his former employer is not stable enough to take care of her boys.

The L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services investigated the claims and determined they had no merit.

Halle Berry and her Dark Tide co-star, French actor Olivier Martinez, appeared to be more than mere working partners on break from the set as they strolled the streets of Paris on Sunday.

Arm in arm, they made their way through the City of Lights and looked like they were enjoying the moment and each other to the nth degree.

They sped off on his motorcycle and later enjoyed a cozy dinner at Casa Bini restaurant before taking a walking tour of the narrow streets that led back to his apartment.  They even stopped in a lighted doorway for a long kiss.

The couple have been filming an action thriller in South Africa.  Halle plays a modern-day adventurer who hooks up with her former lover, played by Martinez.  She’ll be rocking a bikini — a guaranteed 2011 box office blockbuster.
