Molly Goodson — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 07:12:50 PST

Last night's 2011 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show was an amazing spectacle starring everyone from Kanye and Jay-Z to Maroon 5, but the action didn't stop when the final Angel hit the runway - then it was off to the afterparty! Miranda Kerr swapped her $2.5 million Fantasy Treasure bra for a hot white dress to hit the red carpet at Dream Downtown, and while she didn't have Orlando Bloom by her side for the bash, he was front and center cheering her when she hit the catwalk. It was Miranda's first Victoria's Secret runway since giving birth, and she looked amazing with a huge smile on her face in all her elaborate looks.

Fellow VS Angel Adriana Lima showed off her sexy back in a short blue number while Adam Levine reunited with his supermodel squeeze Anna V. to pose for pictures. Adam took the stage with Maroon 5 during the show and he and Anna snuck in a quick kiss during his performance of "Moves Like Jagger." There's lots more to come from Victoria's Secret's huge night in NYC, so check out PopSugar Rush and watch it air Nov. 29 on CBS.

Christina, Adam, Cee Lo, and Blake Give Us a Sneak Peek at The Voice's Second Season

Lindsay Miller — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 05:30:00 PDT

Earlier this week, we stopped by the set of The Voice to hear from the singing competition’s four coaches: Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine, Cee Lo Green, and Blake Shelton. The sophomore season of the NBC reality competition will kick off in the prime post-Super Bowl spot on Feb. 5, and the foursome were on hand, along with host Carson Daly, to share a preview of what’s ahead in 2012. They talked about how the competitors have changed since season one, why they believe their show stands out among other TV talent contests, and how they’re staying involved in the careers of last year’s finalists. Here are some highlights:

Christina on next year’s format: “People wanted to see more of the blind auditions. That’s an amazing part of the show. It keeps all of us on our toes as judges, coaches, as viewers, as the contestant . . . and this year we have to choose 12 people to be on our team as opposed to last year, which there was only eight. So you’re going to see more of that [blind audition] moment.”
Adam on collaborating with last year’s champ Javier: “He’s finishing up his record. I just sang on one of his songs that Pharrell [Williams] did. It sounded amazing . . . it’s coming out soon.”
Blake on how season two's competitors are different: “I actually - which pisses me off still - had a guy ask me . . . I turned around and was telling him how I wanted him on my team, and giving him every reason why I should be his coach, and he said to me and whoever else it was: ‘I already know y’all like me. I want to know which one of you are going to keep me.’ Because he was already thinking ahead to those battle rounds. He knows what’s going to happen when we get to those battle rounds and he wants a commitment further than that, and that’s what we’re faced with because people watched the show last year and they know the game . . . So I told him to kiss my ass.”

4 Ways The Voice Is Different From American Idol

Shannon Vestal — Tue, 26 Apr 2011 04:30:00 PDT

NBC's new singing competition series The Voice premieres tonight, with Carson Daly on board as host. Four musicians make up the judges' panel: Adam Levine, Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton, and Cee Lo Green. Like its competitor American Idol, the show will narrow down a pool of hopefuls to one victor, who'll be rewarded with $100,000 and a recording contract for Universal Music Group. But this isn't just an Idol clone: here are the four main differences that set it apart.

Blind auditions. When the contestants are first trying out, the coaches are turned away from them so that they're not influenced by the contestants' appearance or age; the only deciding factor is their voice.
The celebrity judges aren't just there to critique. Once the judges decide they like someone's voice, they're allowed to see them. At that point, the contestant becomes a part of that coach's team, and they then mentor the contestants to a win.
The judges are actually pitted against each other. Because each coach wants someone that they've coached to win, Shelton, Levine, Green, and Aguilera may have to fight over contestants to get them on their team. The arguments they'll have to provide to get the contestants to pick them may end up being the source of the most entertainment.
The furniture is interactive. The big fancy red seats that the judges sit in aren't just a place to recline; they turn away from the contestants, but at the push of a button, the seats automatically swivel the judge around to face the stage.

Which Grammy Performance Are You Most Excited to Watch?

Lauren Bradshaw — Sun, 13 Feb 2011 10:00:00 PST

The Grammys are tonight! Even though I'm excited to watch all of the nominees vie for awards, I'm even more interested in the evening's performances. You better settle in on the couch, because it's going to be a long night (not that I'm complaining). The list of musicians taking the stage includes everyone from Katy Perry to Bob Dylan, and collaborations abound. Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine will team up with Christina Aguilera and Jennifer Hudson, Maroon 5's Adam Levine will partner with Eminem and Dr. Dre, and Gwyneth Paltrow will take the stage with Cee Lo Green and the Muppets!

I cannot wait to see all of the artists, and what's more, I'll be backstage throughout the evening giving you behind-the-scenes scoop from the Grammy press room! Be sure to check in to the Sugar Network (and on Twitter) for coverage throughout the show, but for now, tell me which performance you can't wait to watch.
