Miranda Cosgrove
Gossip

We had a perfectly nice Friday night at The Hollywood Gossip this week.

Following a few days of hard work, we kicked back and watched the Yankees defeat the Red Sox in a game that featured a mammoth home run by Kate Hudson's boy toy, Alex Rodriguez.

But we wish we'd have been at MILK Studios in Los Angeles instead.

A slew of today's hottest young stars showed up there for the 2009 Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party. Among them: Taylor Lautner, Selena Gomez, Miranda Cosgrove and Ashley Tisdale.

Take a look at each of these rising celebrities below, highlighted by a large photo of Lautner. Do you really need to ask why?

Like our previous style showdown between Stephanie Pratt and Paris Hilton, below is a battle of fashion-forward youngsters from the MTV Movie Awards Sunday night.

NOTE: These two teens have actual talent.

Who will prevail when casual and absolutely ripped Dancing with the Stars winner Shawn Johnson takes on Nickelodeon darling Miranda Cosgrove?

We know it's tough, with such contrasting fashion statements, but you must decide. Which of the young cuties looked better? Tell us below ...

Who looked better?

We take this break from reporting on rising stars such as Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez to focus on another young singer.

Enjoy the following music video for the song “About You Now" by iCarly actress Miranda Cosgrove:

A trio of new songs from young singers have hit the airwaves.

Here's your chance to compare and contrast the singles, beginning with the following vomitous creation from Ali Lohan, "All the Way Around."

American Idol runner-up, David Archuleta, is far more appealing to the senses. Here's his debut song, "Crush."

Lastly, rising Nickelodeon star Miranda Cosgrove has released "Stay My Baby." Listen to it below and send us your thoughts on all three singles.

Sorry, Miranda Cosgrove.

A few weeks ago, The Hollywood Gossip staff who would be the next teen sensation to follow in the popular footsteps of Miley Cyrus: Selena Gomez or Demi Lovato?

Because she isn't part of the Disney family, however, we overlooked Cosgrove. Our bad!

This 15-year old has her very own Nickelodeon hit, starring as the title character in iCarly. She's also responsible for a quartet of tracks on the show's soundtrack, causing the inevitable comparisons to Cyrus.

Do you think she'll have a better chance than Lovato or Gomez of striking it rich? Let the debate begin!

Is Miranda Cosgrove the next Miley Cyrus?
