Britney Furious Over Kimmel Sketch

PopSugar — Wed, 22 Nov 2006 11:24:10 -0800

Britney may have seemed cool with Jimmy Kimmel's sketch making fun of K-Fed last night at the AMAs. Some even thought she might have been in on it because it directly preceded her onstage appearance. But it turns out they didn't tell her about it and according to a rep she's "pissed" about the whole thing. Here's more:

Spears is said to be upset because no one told her beforehand about the skit. Members of her camp apparently demanded that the skit be cut from the West Coast feed of the show. It wasn’t.

K-Fed (in the photo on the right with Spears during happier times) is less than thrilled, too. His people called and “were freaking out,” a source tells me.

So, who came up with the spoof? The host of the awards, Jimmy Kimmel. I’m told it was planned and produced long before Spears signed on. “Britney was a last-second add to the show,” my source says.

Kimmel isn’t exactly apologizing, telling me shortly after the show, “I knew they wouldn’t mind, because I know they both have great senses of humor.”

It looks like they thought wrong. At least we know now that Britney doesn't hate Kevin. Maybe they'll be able to stay on good terms for the kids (at least until they go to court).

And the AMA Winners Are...

We saw Brit make a surprise appearance looking pretty at the AMAs last night, as well as some very cool performances. However the night was really about honoring the best in the business. The Black Eyed Peas scored big last night bringing home the most awards. They took the crown as best rap/hip-hop album, best rap/hip-hop group, and best soul/r&b group. The Red Hot Chili Peppers, the original AI winner Kelly Clarkson, Mary J Blige and Rascal Flatts all did really well too bringing home 2 awards each.

Performers Rock Out at the AMAs

PopSugar — Wed, 22 Nov 2006 09:24:38 -0800

Last night Beyonce opened the show with her sexy shiny mini. Gwen also sported the long leg look but when Carrie Underwood tried she failed miserably. What was the outfit? Other performances included Jay-Z, Snoop and John Mayer. Jamie Foxx performed as well and took home his first AMA for Best Soul-R&B Male Artist. The sweetest moment had to be when he dedicated his performance to his Mom. He said,

"I dedicate this song, y'all, to my mother in the audience, and everyone. I hope you allow me to be myself," Foxx said, introducing a performance of his song "Wish U Were Here" from 2005's "Unpredictable."

Backstage, Foxx waxed poetic about his mother being present. "My biological mother didn't raise me. A lady adopted my biological mother and then adopted me at 7 months," he said. "It feels good to have her see me doing something great."

Stay tuned for a complete list of the winners and even more pics from the event. In the meantime, over 100 pics of the evening including Paris, Nicole and Lionel, Ashlee, John Mayer, Mary J and all the performers so read more

Kelly and Clay Part 2

PopSugar — Wed, 22 Nov 2006 08:59:34 -0800

Looks like Clay isn't taking the Kelly and Rosie thing too seriously. In fact, his fans may care more than he does. We got a ton of emails proving that Kelly has done the same thing Clay did by covering Regis's mouth with her hand.

In light of all the craziness the story started, Clay let a pregnant Tori Spelling have fun with it at the AMAs last night.

The Men Arrive at the AMAs

PopSugar — Wed, 22 Nov 2006 07:33:26 -0800

We don't want to forget about the Men at the AMAs last night. Most of them went out of their way to look nice. Jamie Foxx performed, won and looked like he wanted to impress every lady in the room...and he did. Nice work Mr Foxx. Jay-Z's album hit stores yesterday and he too wanted us to take notice unlike John Mayer. Poor John has seen better days. Perhaps Jessica tired him out. As for Justin Chambers - he does casual cool perfectly. We've missed Taylor Hicks since AI ended but he sure does clean up nicely. It's refreshing to see him again.

American Music Awards: The Ladies Arrive!

PopSugar — Wed, 22 Nov 2006 00:06:31 -0800

The ladies got hot on the red carpet last night for the AMAs. Here are some of the best and worst of the evening. Katharine McPhee went short and backless in her sexy mini. Beyonce looked better performing in her hot short sparkly dress (stay tuned) but still stood out in blue on the red carpet. She loves to go glam but we felt like this was a bit too mermaidy for us. Ashlee went simple and safe while Tori Spelling showed off her growing belly. Carmen disappointed us a little. She looks great but we're not loving the hair.

Gwen is definitely making a statement, and it's buy my album where I am sporting this same look. She sure has lost her Kingston weight and is totally back in shape. As for Sarah Silverman, we get it, you're a comedian so you don't have to go all out like the performers. You are cute when you try so maybe for these big events you can do a little more to show us you care more about comfort every once in awhile. Lots more of the ladies including a pregnant Tori Spelling, Beyonce, Carrie, Carmen, Ashlee, Mary J and more so read more

Britney Spears AMA Surprise

PopSugar — Wed, 22 Nov 2006 00:06:06 -0800

After Jimmy Kimmel joked about K-Fed's "appearance" on the AMAs, he kicked things off by introducing the first presenter of the night, Ms Britney Spears. She went for a classier look, but we were hoping for more of a sexy Britney. As usual, Britney presented with a mouthful of gum. Sometimes you make it so hard for us Britney, but we're not complaining - We'll wait for your comeback - We will.

Billboard Awards Preview: Ace Young

PopSugar — Mon, 04 Dec 2006 06:54:22 -0800

As you all know, we're at the 2006 Billboard Music Awards which air tonight on FOX and we're having a blast meeting lots of Fox TV talent and American Idol stars. We especially enjoyed getting some one-on-one time with Ace Young who was even cuter (and taller!) in person than he looks on TV and who has a ton going on right now.

He just came off the 60-show Idol tour and self-released his first single, "Scattered," which you can buy on iTunes. According to Ace, the song is "about a girl" but also tells the story of his unconventional rise to fame:

“It’s part of me. It’s a metaphor about my life in the music industry. I toured with Brian McKnight and New Edition, but I couldn't get a deal I was really really happy with. So I said, if I can’t get it through the office, I’m gonna get it through the people, and so I tried out for Idol."

Ace was really interesting and well spoken. He also has a new album in the works and a cool charity he's started. He had so much to say so if you want more Ace (you know you do), just read more

Right now Ace is working on the songs for his debut album with legendary songwriter Desmond Child, but he says he also likes to throw in a few covers "for the guys" since Idol didn't really show that side of him. "They didn't show that I was gonna play college football as a wide receiver or be a musician." Also, he's coming to play an acoustic set in SF in just a few days, so that means we'll get a double dose of Ace in one week!

What we really love about Ace though, is the very cool charitable foundation he started called High Rollers With Heart. For years Ace has worked with the Children's Hospital in Denver, so the charity is raising money to build a facility where families can stay when kids are undergoing treatment at the hospital. The goal is to raise $100,000 by year's end, and so far Ace says already they've raised $61 grand.
