Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt make beautiful music together!

I’m probably one of the only people on Earth who didn’t like (500) Days of Summer but that doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy the pairing of Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt! The adorable pair teamed up for a very special video set to get fans excited about 2012.

They performed the song, “What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve?” with Zooey playing ukelele, Joseph on guitar and both sharing singing duties.

I know there have been rumors about hot boy Gordon-Levitt pairing off with other Hollywood hotties like Scarlett Johansson but wouldn’t it be great to see newly single Deschanel hook up with her former co-star?

Go behind the scenes of Zooey Deschanel’s latest Rimmell London ad

Zooey Deschanel is one of those celebrities that you just can’t help but love! She often plays very lovable characters like the musical Jovie in the 2003 comedy Elf and the fun-loving Allison in the Jim Carrey dramedy, Yes Man.

So it’s been fantastic to see her spread her wings in the musical arena (Zooey is in a band with M. Ward called She & Him), personally (she married Death Cab for Cutie erm cutie Ben Gifford in 2009), and even in advertising, as brand ambassador for beauty brand Rimmell London.

Earlier this month Rimmell London released a fun new advertisement featuring Zoe and their Volume Accelerator Mascara, which I have included below in case you missed it. The brand just released some new images giving fans a behind-the-scenes look of the shoot which I’m delighted to share with you all.

I wonder if those are Deschanel’s real eyelashes featured on the advert?  If so, I am rushing to try this new mascara out ASAP.  If you want to do the same, I noticed a $2 off coupon via Rimmel London’s Official FB page here.

Zooey Deschanel in Domino Magazine

zooeymag1Zooey Deschanel is featured in the February 2009 edition of Domino Magazine.  In this article the actress/musician shows how she transformed a spare room into an artists retreat.

She transformed the room into a place where she could practice with her instruments that include guitars, ukulele’s and other percussion instruments and also peaceful enough where she could curl up and enjoy a good book.  Deschanel soundproofed the walls to shield her neighbors while she creates tunes that might end up on a future She & Him album.

Zooey shares what is your favorite thing about the space.

It’s like a present to myself to have a room solely devoted to creative endeavors.  It’s a nice, quiet, place to write music, do a bit of paperwork and read.

Not only does Zooey sing and act but she dabbles in other creative activities.

I paint a little and also sew and cook-sometimes playing with different mediums can be inspiring for your work.
