No disrespect to Dustin Milligan, but, um, er… Ethan who?

90210 has tapped Abercrombie & Fitch model-turned-soap star Trevor Donovan to fill the show’s golden boy vacancy, sources confirm to me exclusively.

The genetically blessed Donovan, who channeled Days of Our Lives bad boy Jeremy Horton for four months in 2007, will play Teddy, West Beverly’s own version of JFK Jr. Gorgeous, smart, athletic, charming, and naturally confident, Teddy has the unique ability to make any girl feel like she’s the most beautiful person in the room. And any guy like he’s a cross between Shrek and Jiminy Glick.

Donovan, whose 90210 gig is described as heavily recurring, will debut early into the show’s upcoming second season.

Okay, all you Armchair Casting Directors out there: Thumbs up? Thumbs down? Thumbs sideways? Comment away!

Question: Is Jennie Garth going to appear in any episodes of 90210 next season? –Emil
Ausiello: There’s nothing on the books yet, but a rep for the show says “the intention is to have Jennie back next season.” In other 90210 news, former Law & Order ADA Elisabeth Rohm will guest star as a robot bitchy socialite who locks horns with Naomi in at least one episode.

Making for quite the interesting day on-set, AnnaLynne McCord, Jessica Lowndes and Jessica Stroup shot a pool party scene for “90210” on Thursday (June 25).

Showing off their swimsuit figures, the trio of ladies laughed amongst one another as they hopped in and out of the water - much to the delight of set workers.

Debbie in San Diego: Any idea who Annie hit with her car on 90210?
AnnaLynne McCord tells us the 90210 cast just found out last week, and “It’s really bad.” Hit the comments with your guesses as to who it is or who you want it to be! As for Naomi in the upcoming second season, AnnaLynne teases, “Obviously there was a horrible ending for poor Naomi. She is over Liam, and she is over Annie. She goes through the first half of the season really trying to prove that to herself. I don’t think she’s really over him, but we’ll see that push and pull.” Speaking of Liam, Matt Lanter spills, “We’re going to get into his family life a little bit more. It’s 90210 so I’m sure there are going to be some new romances and some jealousy and backstabbing.”
