Why is she famous? Joanna Noëlle Levesque best known by her stage name JoJo, is an American pop and R&B singer, songwriter, and actress. She rose to fame in 2004 with her Platinum-certified, self-titled debut album which reached number four on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart.

Sweet times for Emma Roberts Just turned 19, tiny, pale-skinned actress Emma Roberts is in amused agreement with her "Valentine's Day" director Garry Marshall when she's told that he said her age group "makes love with its thumbs. ."Our generation is definitely all about the texting and the e-mailing and the BBM-ing and the IM-ing; it's endless. I think a lot of things get misconstrued, because tone of voice is so important," she says, by turns claiming she doesn't text as much as she used to, then declaring she still loves it. "There should be a sarcasm font . . . because I'll make a sarcastic comment and the other person thinks I'm being rude when I'm not." |

She pulls on her coat as the temperature creeps down on the patio restaurant of a West Hollywood hotel. An avid reader, she says she enjoys the works of Joan Didion and Molly Jong-Fast -- as well as Chuck Palahniuk and Nicholas Sparks, two authors whose books it's hard to imagine peacefully coexisting on the same shelf. Roberts dabbles in painting, assembling collages, writing and music, but says she's doing less of that these days. Despite her handful of releases (including an album featuring offbeat singer-songwriter Jill Sobule), she's uncomfortable performing in front of crowds. "And doing a music video is so embarrassing. I don't think I'll be doing [another] album unless I write it for someone else. I have stage fright. I can't ever do theater because I would pee my pants," she says, laughing. "It's way too nerve-racking. There's a comfort in being able to mess up when you're on a movie set." |
