HOT NEW STARS: Put down the remote and get ready to meet the year's 50 biggest and brightest TV personalities.

#10: HILARIE BURTON
ONE TREE HILL
WB, TUESDAYS, 9 PM/ET

Hilarie Burton has not one but two dream jobs. First there's her VJ gig at MTV, where some days she's hosting Total Request Live (weekdays, 5pm/ET), others she's whooping it up at spring break or the Super Bowl. Then there's the 21-year-old's starring stint on WB's teen drama One Tree Hill. When she's not jetting from MTV's NYC studios to the Wilmington, North Carolina, OTH set, the Loudoun County Virginian like to eat Lucky Charms and watch her It Guy Conan O'Brien.

I live in... a beautiful old Victorian house in Wilmington that I fell in love with--open rooms, lots of rich wood and a huge backyard. I also have an apartment in New York's Financial District.

When friends come over... we barbeque and gab and goof on each other.

My TV is... not huge, just big enough. And I have it in my bedroom.

I always TiVo... It's going to sound dorky, but Meet The Press.

Favorite Chair: A beautiful dark wood one that my dad made awhile ago.

First five people on my cell-phone speed dial: My brothers, the One Tree Hill set, a good friend from high school and my manager.

Pets I own: No pets. I can barely take care of myself!

For dinner I'll make... chili. I make great chili.

Coolest thing in my closet: My "Virginia is for Lovers" T-shirt.

Newest gadget: An iPod. No, wait, a BlackBerry [wireless e-mail device]. It's been so helpful with my hectic schedule.

Must-have DVD: "Finding Nemo"

Favorite songs/artists to legally download: "I Believe In a Thing Called Love" by The Darkness, and lots of Prince and Elvis.

I can't start my day without... some chai tea.

Welcome to Junk Food Heaven! Can we take your order? Chili from Wendy's or chai tea from a coffee shop.
