Should brides always change their name?After saying "I do" (and before saying, "Wait, maybe I don't"), Kim Kardashian spent 72 days as "Mrs. Kris Humphries." During that short stint of a marriage, however, Kim didn't make one of the most traditional (and often expected) changes that come with walking down the aisle - legally changing her last name.

It's an age-old tradition that has been followed, seemingly without too much protest, for years. For most, making the switch to their husband's last name is exciting; a sort of "final seal" on the lifelong vows you've made. But many women are challenging this tradition nowadays, especially those who are less religious and more educated, according to studies - Kim K included, though we wouldn't exactly call her educated.

And yet, despite the habits of celebrities, "normal" Americans are all for tradition. So much, in fact, that a recent nationally representative survey of 815 Americans showed that 50 percent would support a law which requires women to change their last

Taylor Lautner makes the girls scream.Want to win Taylor Lautner's heart? Start by striking out with him.

To the 19-year-old star of Twilight and Abduction, "A great Friday night is going to a bowling alley with friends. I just want to do normal things like hang out, go bowling or order a pizza," he says.

"It's the last place anyone thinks they will find me," Taylor admits, probably alluding to the hundreds of female fans who've become entranced by his good looks and killer abs ever since the first Twilightmovie captured the world's attention in 2008. Although the end of his werewolf days are beginning with The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part I in theaters November 18, we have a feeling the Team Jacob obsession will stay strong for years to come.

We caught up with Taylor to find out how he handles all the attention, what he does to get that rockin' bod, and what it's like to say goodbye to his famous character:

So Taylor, do you ever get tired of the screams and the fainting girls?

I am a self-professed music snob. I make no apologies about this. I was a DJ in college, I have more vinyl than you, and I will judge you for your taste in music. Why? Simply: I have better taste in music than you ever will. So Tastebuds.fm ismy kind of dating site. Finally someone got it right and decided, "Hey, let's match people based on their taste in music." Brilliant.

Tastebuds.fm just conducted a study to see which bands are dating dealbreakers.. The top three: Nickelback, Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga. Please note I had to double-check the spelling of the first two (as do most of his tween fans, it seems like), and can't name a single song by any of those three artists. Is Justin Bieber Really The 17-Year-Old Father Of A Fan's Baby?

I don't know the first thing about Nickelback, so I did a quick iTunes scan. One word: gross. One word is all they deserve. Bieber? Two words, one former pop star: Leif Garrett. Don't know him? Look him up and that's your beloved Bieber in

Et tu, Taylor? Taylor Swift might just be the latest celebrity to be caught on camera with her clothes off, if one gossip website is to be believed.

According to Fox News, a website called Celebity Jihad posted a naked photo of a woman that it claims is the 21-year-old country sweetheart, although Taylor's reps vehemently denies it. Taylor's lawyer even sent the gossip site a threatening letter, citing copyright infrigement for posting "false pornographic images" and "false news" and demanded that the photo be taken down immediately.

However, the photo still remains up, which makes us wonder: Could it really be her?

If so, Taylor wouldn't be the first "good girl" in Hollywood to have naked photos of herself splashed around the internet. Blake Lively denied reports that she did just that last summer (although the photographic evidence is compelling).

Even more recently, after months of speculation, Scarlett Johansson came out and confirmed that the leaked photos from her own cell

I used to think the Kardashians were entertaining, especially on long winter nights when all I had the energy to do was pop on my Netflix and indulge in a Keeping Up marathon. Sure, it was always transparent that Kim rode to fame on the back of her ex-best friend Paris Hilton and the infamous Ray J. sex tape, but I thought it was all harmless fun. The family's drama was exciting to follow (and required very few brain cells); I liked Khloe's outspoken bitchiness and enjoyed hating on Scott. And their outfits were such eye candy.

But even I will never be able to watch that show (or any of its horrible spinoffs) ever again. Kim Kardashian and co., we're officially done. I will never watch anything on TV with you in it. I will never stop into any of the Dash stores. And I will certainly never buy anything endorsed or advertised by you, not that I ever did anyway. Ever since you threw a disgustingly opulent $17.9 million wedding, and then promptly got divorced after just 72 days ,
