Teen queen Lindsay Lohan has joined soccer star Mia Hamm, Priceline pitchman and aspiring lounge singer William Shatner, and quarterback Terry Bradshaw to help Heinz pitch its ketchup by offering a quote for the company's Talking Label campaign. Lohan's label reads "Burger-licious." The other celeb quotes include:

"'Star Trek' captain William Shatner's 'Fixes Burgers at Warp Speed'; Olympic soccer gold medal winner Mia Hamm's 'Worthy of Gold'; and ex-football player and commentator Terry Bradshaw's 'Served at the Immaculate Reception,' referring to his famous pass in 1972 to Pittsburgh Steelers teammate Franco Harris."

A portion of the proceeds go to each celeb's designated charity.

Kirsten Dunst graces the cover of Teen Vogue's Young Hollywood issue (taking a cue from Vanity Fair's Young Hollywood issue?). Dunst is really the veteran having started acting at age 3 and as such has developed a protective instinct towards other up-and-comers like Lindsay Lohan.

"Nobody cared about my life when I was Lindsay Lohan's age!" says Dunst, who is the "Mean Girls" star's senior by only four years. "I feel really protective of a lot of these girls … I feel bad that [Lindsay]'s getting photographed in that way, that people are probably always wanting her to be sexy. It's hard for a young girl not to have any privacy. I'm finding it difficult as a 22-year-old."

Hmm. I have a feeling Lindsay doesn't mind all that much and I also have a feeling if Kirsten's chest was nearly as um ehanced, she probably would have gotten similar attention. "Joan of Arcadia's" Amber Tamblyn is also featured in the issue as well as in USA Today's preview puff piece about season two of the Emmy-nominated show.

Ashlee Simpson will debut in the notoriously sexy Candies ads this September marking another attempt by the sultry brunette to make her mark. According to the press release, Ashlee will also perform a live concert for Candie's customers and make two in-store appearances in major markets. Ashlee has also been nominated for the Fresh New Face award at the Teen Choice Awards, which will be broadcast Aug. 11 on FOX.

I just couldn't give another separate post to Lindsay Lohan today, but Defamer is reporting the Variety headline that she now may be worth $7 million a movie or $3.5 million a breast.

Mean Girl Lindsay Lohan is attempting to become a double threat (can she dance?) by signing a record deal with former Mariah Carey manager/husband Tommy Mattola's Casablanca Records. She's also working with "Idol" maker and songwriter Diane Warren. In related stories, Reuters looks at how the latest crop of teen starlets are putting high school trials and tribulations front and center this summer with "Mean Girls," "A Cinderella Story," "Sleepover," etc. The Chicago Sun Times also weighs in with a story about how teen girls are making box office bank.

YM has relaunched with its August issue in an attempt to attract a more sophisticated teen with a "19-year-old mindset." From editor Linda Fears:

"The dramatic redesign combines energy and elegance, with style and a sense of humor," says Fears. "Sophisticated new fonts paired with clean, modern layouts result in a newsier, more colorful and graphically streamlined design. As a lifestyle magazine for teens, our goal is to provide inspiration and service in every area-from fashion and beauty to entertainment, health, news and relationship stories. Instead of trying to be all things to all teens, we're focusing on the '19-year-old mind-set,' encompassing older teens and sophisticated younger teens who want to aspire up."

They put just-turned-18 Lindsay Lohan on the cover of the August issue and the featured music artist is Avril Lavigne. I think they will be more successful in reaching younger teens who want to aspire up. I'm pretty sure 19-year-olds are reading Jane, Cosmo, Marie Claire, etc.

Dooney & Bourke certainly think so. They've made the new teen queen the new face for two new handbag collections "targeted to today's young, and young at heart, consumer." Lohan follows in the dainty footsteps of "The O.C.'s" lovely Mischa Barton. The ad campaign debuts in August. You can see a full preview of the ad here.

Yes I just made up the word teenification. Media Life reports a jump in viewers 12-17 of 25.7 percent, to 1.71 million from 1.36 million last year. So by replacing stars more popular with the 18-34 set like "Frat Pack" (yes I'm adopting the new term coined by USA Today) members Ben Stiller and Jack Black with our favorite buxom teen beauty Lindsay Lohan, they lost 18-34 year-old viewers and gained teen viewers.

Slate reporter David Amsden goes "undercover" as the prom date of a 17-year-old girl to investigate "the quaint idea that The Prom still matters to American youth culture?or, at the very least, adults cling to the notion that The Prom still matters to their children."

Amsden makes references to MTV's "Prom Date," "Mean Girls" and the new book "Wonderland" as pop culture examples of our renewed interest in teens and the prom phenom. But the story doesn't really go anywhere — he doesn't even get to the prom. Instead he focuses on how our collective nostalgia for high school has led to the fetishistic feelings towards youth and especially teen girls. He jokes, "Laugh if you must. Report me to the police. You can't deny that, in this light, going to prom with a 17-year-old should, theoretically, be every grown man's dream." He calls his date "cherubic" and Lindsay Lohan "dewy." Yuck.

Poor Lindsay Lohan. She is on the publicity circuit attempting to dispel the rumors that she had a boob job. She exclaimed "no way" to Leno and told the Guardian it's just not true. Yesterday the New York Post did the "more teens getting boob jobs for graduation story" I posted last week from Women's eNews and they hint that it's Lindsay and Britney that are encouraging girls to request more buxom bosoms.
