• Pint-sized style-blogging sensation Tavi announced that she’ll be starting a new “feminist, creative, moody-teenage-girl” magazine with Jane Pratt, former editor-in-chief of Sassy. They’re taking submissions through November 19. [Style Rookie via Observer]

• The late Dennis Hopper’s art collection, which included pieces by Warhol, Basquiat and Haring, took in more than $10 million at Christie’s. [P6]

• Angela Lansbury will play Katherine Heigl’s daughter in a new film, Adaline. Heigl plays a character who doesn’t age past her late 20s after being struck by lightning—so it’s like Phenomenon, but shallower. [Deadline]

• Two of Jon and Kate Gosselin’s eight kids have been expelled from school for violence and bullying—which is hard to believe, since they have such positive parental influence in their lives. [People]
