Oops: AnnaLynne McCord shows too much skin in topless Twitter pic

AnnaLynne McCord gave her fans an eyeful on Twitter over the weekend when the "90210" star sent a photo to one of her fans, beauty blogger Megan Rae, and accidentally included a glimpse of bare breast in the process.

On Thursday, McCord sent one of her fans a pic with the message, "This is for you @meganraee You rock! Xxx A." However, the photo, which featured a topless McCord going glam for the camera, apparently featured more chest area than McCord originally intended. Her left nipple was visible just on the edge of the frame.

McCord took down the pic and re-cropped it to be less NSFW, but, as with anything on the Internet, it was too late. Her nipple was already flying around cyberspace.

But at least the actress has a sense of humor about it. Ian Stenning, a maintenance technician at London's Heathrow Airport, responded to the tweet with "@meganraee I think we all really know who this was for. --> me :D." McCord responded, "Hahaha! Megan, you feel like sharing? Very funny I actually LOL-ed xxxA."

Too much bare breast on Twitter is on the verge of becoming a trend for the "90210" cast. In  November, Tori Spelling, who reprised her original "Beverly Hills, 90210" role as Donna on two early episodes of the new series, was caught topless in the background of a pic her husband, Dean McDermott, sent out to his friends.

Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Oprah top charitable celebs of 2010

Megastars like Sandra Bullock, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey and Prince William have a lot to be thankful for this holiday. The luminaries are getting a little shout-out for their generosity as well.

DoSomething.org, an online portal that helps link youth with volunteer opportunities, has publishing a list of "Celebs Done Good" for 2010. 

Bullock scores points for her support of education for low-income kids in Louisiana, Bieber gets big ups for his work with children's hospitals, and so do Gaga for her very public support over the repeal of DADT, Winfrey for her overwhelming generosity in general and the newly engaged William for his work with homeless youth in Britain.

Rounding out the list are Leonardo DiCaprio, getting props for his interest in endangered tigers; Ellen DeGeneres for her support of the Trevor Project and its efforts to prevent anti-gay bullying; Nick Jonas for his activism around diabetes; and Matt Damon for his longtime passion project in providing clean water water around the world.

Jake Gyllenhaal's main squeeze, Taylor Swift, gets a nod for her flood-relief efforts in Tennessee, Alicia Keys gets props for her much-covered "Digital Death" campaign in support of Keep a Child Alive, and Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore are recognized for their efforts to prevent child sex trafficking.

Kellan Lutz and AnnaLynne McCord call it quits

After two years of on-and-off romance, actors Kellan Lutz and AnnaLynne McCord have broken up.

The split occurred about a month ago, according to website Gossip Cop, and was flagged by celeb weekly Life & Style after the pair were spotted partying separately for Halloween.

The "Twilight Saga" star partied at Mur.mur in Atlantic City's Borgata, while McCord was with rumored new fling Aaron O'Connell at Lavo in Las Vegas.

In June, Lutz told the Ministry that he'd love to settle down with the right girl -- but only for the right reasons.

"I love marriage. I really want to be married and have it last for the right reasons and know that she’s the one for me," he said. "And I want to do it out of love, not insecurities or dependence."

McCord stars on the CW's "90210." Lutz and the rest of his undead clan are descending on Louisiana to film the final two installments of "The Twilight Saga."

'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' premiere pictures from the red -- er, black -- carpet

Finally! After building up steam for months, the supernatural circus train that is "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" pulled into the station with the movie's premiere Thursday night at L.A. Live, reuniting Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and the rest of the cast amid throngs of screaming fans. 

Twi-hards who'd been camping out for days lined the red carpet -- OK, it was a black carpet, matching the campers' wristbands -- along with media types from all over the world.

Hot topics on the carpet: Love and mad appreciation for the fans, and lots of war stories from the six weeks of fight training and physical conditioning the actors had to go through as part of the production.

Celebs on the carpet but not in the film included Jennifer Love Hewitt, Alex Rodriguez, Kristi Yamaguchi, Ron Artest, Quinton Aaron, Amber Rose, Jaden Smith and sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kim Kardashian.

Also on the scene: "Twilight" author Stephenie Meyer and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg, representing the more literary aspects of the franchise, and actresses Annalynne McCord and Jennie Garth, accompanying Cullen family members Kellen Lutz and Peter Facinelli, respectively. 

Click on the picture to the right, above, to launch a photo gallery of pictures from the carpet, and check back with the Ministry for video interviews from the "Eclipse" premiere and coverage of what might be the toughest ticket in town: the after-party.

Discovery's 'Life' prepares to sweep the planet: After bicoastal premieres, it's a seven-channel simulcast

How long have we been tuning in weekday afternoons to hear Oprah Winfrey talk us through life? Long enough that it's hardly a surprise she's the voice of Discovery Channel's new 11-part series, "Life," which starts March 21 with a seven-channel simulcast.

Even before the series started hitting "must watch" lists, "Life" had its bicoastal premieres, in keeping with that sweeping-the-planet, simulcast vibe: At the Getty Museum in L.A. on Feb. 25, beauties Eliza Dushku and Annalynne McCord, with Matt Lanter, turned out with Discovery stars Bear Grylls of "Man vs. Wild" and Sig Hansen of "Deadliest Catch."

Over in New York on March 4, a lively appearance was made by Kate Gosselin, newly single, recently made over (and made over again!) and a subtle reminder that Discovery and TLC are more than kissing cousins. The mother of eight certainly seemed bubbly and invigorated on the red carpet with her new "Dancing With the Stars" partner, Tony Dovolani. (She's reportedly charming folks on the "DWTS" set too, Us Weekly reports.) Also at the Manhattan screening: Reshma Shetty of "Royal Pains" and Bethenny Frankel of "The Real Housewives of New York."

AnnaLynne McCord is delighted and disgusted -- which rocks our 'Nip/Tuck' world

On TV, the comely AnnaLynne McCord does things like try to seduce her mother’s girlfriend’s ex-husband or publicly expose her sister for sleeping with her boyfriend.

In real life, the bad girl of “90210” and “Nip/Tuck” has better things to do. Like trash her famous peers for wasting their time in the spotlight with selfish pursuits rather than use it to promote a good cause.

“It disgusts me to hear about endless partying,” she told the crowd of 700 at Variety’s “Power of Youth” event at Paramount Studios on Saturday. “If you’re undeserving of your title, I pray it’s taken away from you and given to someone who’ll use it for the power of youth.”

McCord supports the Blind Project, a New York-based organization helping victims of sex trafficking in Southeast Asia. And while young paparazzi bait settle into first-class seats on flights to the tropics during the holidays, she and her sisters are spending Christmas volunteering in Phnom Penh.

That philanthropic spirit earned McCord a Variety Power of Youth award, along with the charity-minded Corbin Bleu, Miranda Cosgrove, Keke Palmer and Jesse McCartney.

But no one else quite displayed McCord’s fearless je ne sais quoi about the sorry state of much of young Hollywood.

"I’m really over it,” she said backstage. (Click onward for pics and more.)
