Aria Montgomery’s little brother Mike (Cody Allen Christian) has been MIA on “Pretty Little Liars” for a while. When we last saw him, it was Season 2 and he was acting out as a result of his parents’ split. He had also just punched Ezra when Ezria revealed their relationship to Aria’s family.

Now Mike is back in the Montgomery house. Creator Marlene King tweets, “Mike Montgomery is home. #405,” referring to Season 4′s fifth episode, titled “Gamma Zeta Die.”

King has also been dropping some hints about the Season 4 premiere, writing, “Watching final playback of PLL season premiere. OMG. It messes w ur mind!” and “I think 401 is my most fave premiere. Ever!”

We can hardly wait. “Pretty Little Liars” returns June 11 on ABC Family.

Ashley Benson’s Coachella Beauty Must-Have — Get Her Fave Product

Posted by: | Filed in: Articles, Beauty & Style | No Comments

Ashley listened to music with friends at the weekend festival starting on April 12, and being in the hot sun all day isn’t easy! Luckily, she had a beauty must-have with SPF to keep her safe in the sun! See the exact product she used below!

Celebs like Bella Thorne, Vanessa Hudgens, Kristen Stewart and Ashley Benson all spent their weekend at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in Indio, Calif. Celeb retreats and lounges were set up for the stars to relax and re-hydrate and we’ve got the exact product Ashley was using to shield herself from the scorching sun!

Ashley’s must-have at the outdoor festival was Colorescience Sunforgettable Mineral Sunscreen Brush SPF 30. The lightweight mineral powder provides a sheer coverage while also offering UVA and UVB protection from the sun!

The all-in-one design makes carrying and applying a cinch, especially for all those times you don’t have a mirror handy!

Plus, it’s water resistant so you don’t have to worry about the formula sweating off. Either way, it’s best to apply any sunscreen every two hours.

She got her new must-have at the Kari Feinstein Coachella Style Lounge.

Ashley tweeted on April 15: “Best time at coachella.” She also posted a bunch of pictures with friends — looks like she had a great time!

First Look: Pretty Little Liars’ New Hot Cop

Posted by: | Filed in: News & Rumors, Pretty Little Liars | No Comments

Put your hands where we can see them!

As TV Guide Magazine previously broke, the heat is gonna be on Aria and friends when ABC Family’s Pretty Little Liars returns in June. Here’s an exclusive first look at Rosewood’s newest (and perfectly monikered) law-enforcement officer, played by Sean Faris (The Vampire Diaries).

“This season on Pretty Little Liars, I’m playing Pennsylvania State Police Detective Gabriel Holbrook,” reveals Faris. His character will be paired with Nip/Tuck vet Roma Maffia’s Det. Linda Tanner “to investigate some of the mysteries that seem to elude the local police.”

Looks like his work begins at some sort of gathering — perhaps a funeral with the world’s most fabulous dress code? — but is this guy to be trusted? According to Faris, it sounds like our girls won’t be dealing with another dastardly Detective Wilden-type, despite whatever it was they found in the dirty cop’s trunk in last season’s finale. “In the end,” says Faris, “all we are looking for is the truth.”

So confess: are you excited to meet Faris’ Officer Holbrook? And with whom do you think he might share some unlawful chemistry? Also, what do you think of Hanna’s outfit?

‘Pretty Little Liars’ Earns Most-Tweeted Show on Television Bragging Rights

Posted by: | Filed in: Charts & Ratings, Pretty Little Liars | No Comments

ABC Family, the basic cable network that airs the drama series, boasts television dominance in the social media landscape

“Pretty Little Liars” is television’s number one most-tweeted series for the first quarter of 2013, according to SocialGuide.

Even with “Walking Dead,” “Big Bang Theory,” and “American Idol” dominating the ratings this year, “Liars” remained the top-tweeted series across all TV and inspired 2.6 million social unique users to send out over 11.7 million 140-character messages about the show.

The drama series accounted for four of the top five most-tweeted TV episodes during the quarter — towering over AMC’s “The Walking Dead” by 49 percent and FOX’s “American Idol” by 50 percent, and nearly quadrupling A&E’s buzzed-about “Duck Dynasty”. Among all first quarter programs, “Pretty Little Liars” ranked third, behind Super Bowl XLVII and The 55th Annual Grammy Awards on ABC.

Overall, ABC Family is the number one network in the social media landscape, which is a constantly growing value to the entertainment industry. ABC Family credits the surge of their social media presence to the never-before-done announcement of spin-off series “Ravenswood” across all “Pretty Little Liars” social media platforms.

Instead of adding a statement from a proud executive to announce the accomplishment, ABC Family included a fitting hashtag: #POWEROFABCFAMILYSOCIALMEDIA.

Ashley Benson Talks Faviana Campaign, Prom, and Red Carpet Style Icons in Exclusive Interview

Posted by: | Filed in: Beauty & Style, Faviana, Interviews, Videos | No Comments

Ashley Benson may not have attended prom herself, but turns out the actress knows a thing or two about shopping for— and wearing— fancy dresses.

After all, there’s absolutely no question this girl can work it on the red carpet (just check the entire Spring Breakers press tour for evidence!), but she’s also the face of Faviana, the New York-based label that designs celebrity-inspired special occasion gowns.

We stopped by the company HQ recently to check out the new prom styles and get the lowdown on all the offerings from Ashley herself.

In between chatting about all things Spring Breakers-related, she filled us in on her new spokesmodel gig and the best parts about helping girls pick out dresses for their own big nights. She also dished on her signature red carpet steez, gearing towards “edgy, chic looks” that’s a more glamorous extension of her casual everyday uniform.

Oh, and one more thing: clearly we’re not the only ones obsessed with the Olsen twins around here, because Ashley admitted that MK&A have been her style icons since Day One (and still are today!). Get the scoop on all this and more in our interview!

‘Pretty Little Liars’: Roma Maffia cast as the new cop in town

Posted by: | Filed in: News & Rumors, Pretty Little Liars | No Comments

Listen up PLL fans! We’ve got some good news for you — and some not-so-good news for our four Little Liars: Two new investigators are coming to the felony-filled town of Rosewood.

The Rosewood PD must not be doing its job (you think?!), because Sean Faris is joining the cast as state investigator Gabriel Holbrook. And EW exclusively learned that Faris won’t be showing up alone: Roma Maffia — known largely for her role as Dr. Liz Cruz on Nip/Tuck — will play Gabe’s partner, Linda Tanner. Maffia’s character will first appear in the fourth episode of the upcoming fourth season, which premieres June 11, and is another state investigator who ABC Family describes as “smart, patient, and with a military background.”

Will new law enforcement mean good things for the Liars? We certainly hope so, but based on what we’ve seen with certain detectives — ahem, Wilden (Bryce Johnson) — we’re willing to bet Gabe and Linda will start to question the girls almost immediately upon their arrival. But what does this mean for Wilden? Is he being demoted? Is he leaving Rosewood or — perhaps — dead?! And what case do you think is the reason for the introduction of state investigators? Our bet is that it has something to do with the mystery item the Liars found in Wilden’s trunk in the season three finale.

Regardless of why, Rosewood is bringing in the big guns, and with two new investigators in town, the only thing we’re sure of is that the Liars’ names will likely show up on a suspect list (or two).
