Hey TWIST readers,

Taylor Lautner has been hanging out with his ex-girlfriend Sara Hicks a lot lately, sparking rumors that they're back together! The pair was spotted leaving a Cirque du Soleil performance in Santa Monica, Calif. on Friday night. A source dished they "have been hanging out a lot in LA, seeing a few shows and going to dinner." Taylor and Sara dated in high school, broke up, and dated again in 2010 before breaking up... again. Since then, Taylor has famously dated girls like Taylor Swift and his Abduction co-star Lily Collins, and Sara has become a Los Angeles Clippers cheerleader.

Do you think Taylor and Sara make a good couple? Tell us in the comments. To find out about Taylor's thrill-seeking adventure, pick up the February issue of TWIST, out now!

With love,

Hey TWIST Girls!

Victoria Justice is the new spokesperson for the 2012 Donate My Dress campaign! Donate My Dress is a project that gives special occasion dresses -- like prom or Sweet 16 dresses -- to girls who could not otherwise afford a new dress. Victoria is donating the gorgeous mini that she wore to the 2010 MTV VMAs in the hopes that other girls will do the same! "I'm really excited to be a part of the Donate My Dress organization," Vic said recently. "Prom can be really expensive; this program is an easy way for girls everywhere to get involved and help other girls in need." In the past, celebs like Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus have donated dresses too! This month, Donate My Dress is doing something really special, they've partnered with Always, who will donate $1 for every girl who visits its Facebook page and shares her favorite prom dress style! They'll then give the money to Donate My Dress chapters around the country to use to pay for dry cleaning, mending and holding dress drives!

What do you think about Victoria getting involved in this campaign? Tell us in the comments and make sure to pick up our February issue, on stands Monday for the latest celeb style news!

TWIST: Can you describe your sound and the music you play?
Shealeigh: My sound is pop-ish. I really like slow stuff, but I love fast stuff too, so it's a whole mixture of pop [with a] mainstream kind of feel.
Zack: The music that I play is kind of a mix of Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger, Prince kind of mix.

TWIST: Zack, did you listen to those artists growing up?
Zack: Oh yeah! Michael Jackson, mainly. Elvis, also. I was always on YouTube, watching and studying their dance moves and their vocal warm-ups. I would always sing their songs and copy what they would do because they were so great at what they did.

TWIST: Shealeigh, what artists have you always looked up to?
Shealeigh: Definitely Taylor Swift! She's been my superhero since I've been in fourth grade. She actually inspired me to start writing music. It just seems so effortless for her. I just adore herl. But I really love Beyonce, Adele, and Demi Lovato.

TWIST: How did you get your start in music? What inspired you?
Shealeigh: When I was 2 years old, I started singing. My mom's side of the family really loved music and loved singing. They would come over sometimes, and we would have this huge music party. I just started local competitions from there. I've just loved it ever since.
Zack: I've always felt something when I performed. I was like, "Mom and Dad, I want to be a performer like Michael and Elvis and all those greats." They agreed with it, and I was really excited.

Hey ladies,

Taylor Swift has been offered the role of Eponine in the upcoming movie version of the classic musical Les Miserables. No word yet on if she'll accept the role but if she does, Taylor would star alongside Amanda Seyfried and Ann Hathaway. This would be Tay's first major movie role, and although she did get to show off her acting skills in 2010's Valentine's Day, staring in a musical film would be totally new direction for the country singer.

The movie is set to hit theaters December, 2012.

Check it out: Taylor's "Safe and Sound"

Your turn girls, do you think Tay should take the role or stick to singin' country? Tell us below!
