We watch iCarly nonstop. Me an the four kids. And we watch Shaycarl, and Shaycarl watches us. Even babytard, see?

Gibby or Nevel would be cool too.

Actually (shhhh) my son Patrick kinda has a crush on Jennette McCurdy (Sam).

ByNalts

MediaPost reports that LonelyGirl15’s jig is up. By last week, three consumer-detectives who had corresponded with “Lonely Girl” figured out that Bree’s e-mails were originating from Hollywood’s Creative Artists Agency. The revelations forced the site’s creators to finally admit the jig was up, though they have yet to reveal the entire story. “Thank you so…
