Dakota Fanning chose yet another strapless number but still looked perfectly pretty. Al Gore found his way into a conversation with Will Smith who had his wife for a date. Jennifer Hudson took home the Best New Artist award and said, "Now don't start me to crying again, y'all. It's always an honor to come home and feel welcome and to feel the love."

Rihanna was up for Female Performer of the year, but it was Beyonce who took the prize and also performed at the event. Diddy took home the award for TV Movie Actor while Will Smith and Rosario Dawson both won for Seven Pounds. Best picture went to The Secret Life of Bees - check out all the winners here.

Al Gore Helps Kickoff Tribeca Film Festival

PopSugar — Thu, 26 Apr 2007 10:02:53 -0700

Robert De Niro's Tribeca Film Festival opened last night in an unconventional way. Al Gore hosted the event, which began with 9 short films about the environment in lieu of a full-length, big name movie like Spiderman-3 (which will premiere later on at Tribeca). The films are produced by SOS (Save Our Selves), which works towards raising awareness about global warming and climate change.

It's awesome that giving back and environmental awareness is becoming the hot new celebrity trend these days. Hopefully Hollywood can continue to use its fame to influence America to start getting serious about saving our planet.

Madonna's Getting In On The Green Fun

PopSugar — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 08:59:26 -0700

Lately we've been hearing a lot about Madonna the fashion designer, but it looks like she's ready to put her singing cap (and dancing shoes) back on. Madge has signed on to take part in Al Gore's Live Earth concert, along with a ton of the hottest acts in the music industry. It seems like just yesterday Cameron Diaz was with Gore and Pharrell announcing the big event. It's awesome that so many celebs are pitching in to help spread environmental awareness - maybe we should change Pop's colors from hot pink to lime green.

Cameron Teams Up with Gore to Announce Live Earth

PopSugar — Thu, 15 Feb 2007 23:54:34 -0800

Cameron, Al Gore and Pharrell got together yesterday to announce plans for a Live Earth concert. The event will hopefully raise awareness and money for environmental organizations in the same way that Live Aid did for Famine, Farm Aid did for farming and Live 8 did for Africa. The event, which will take place on 7 continents on July 7th, has already lined up stars like Pharrell, John Legend, Black Eyed Peas, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Snoop Dogg and Kelly Clarkson. Obviously, more acts will be announced as the plans progress.

With Cameron's obvious love for the environment, she is the perfect spokesperson to help generate buzz for this event. There are already 100 performers on board and we bet many other celebs will be at the events to lend their voice. One couple who won't be present, Eva and Tony cuz you know, they'll be busy getting married and all.

The Grey's Cast Can't Catch a Break

PopSugar — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 16:34:48 -0800

Never one to miss a party, Diddy showed up with quite an entourage to the Warner Music Group Grammy After Party. But before the awards, his late arrival to JT's pre-Grammy party caused a stir with the cast of Grey's Anatomy. Apparently T.R. Knight, Kate Walsh, and Sara Ramirez were told to leave when Diddy found them sitting at his table. Page Six Reports:

A spy said, "Puffy was supposed to sit in the same VIP area that had four tables - two were for him and two were for the 'Grey's Anatomy' cast. But he was very, very late, and there are a lot of 'Grey's' castmembers, so T.R., Kate and Sara were at a table set up for Puffy."

Combs' bodyguard was a little heavy-handed.

"This guy goes up to T.R., Kate and Sara and started demanding - 'Get out! Get out now! Move it!' - T.R. was furious," our spy who was in the same VIP section said.

The spy added that Combs and Knight exchanged words before the "Grey's" cast were led away to another table.

Even though Diddy is the king of the VIP section, this seems a little harsh. Supposedly he didn't recognize TR before sicking his bodyguard on the unsuspecting interns. Sounds like someone needs to catch up on his Greys.

GQ Men of the Year Arrivals - Let's Focus On Just the Men For Now

PopSugar — Thu, 30 Nov 2006 10:21:16 -0800

Will Ferrell, Leo and Jay-Z landed 3 different covers for GQ's 11th annual Men of the Year issue, but all the guys looked truly deserving of cover boy status at the event last night. The Men of the Year awards was held at the Sunset Tower Hotel in LA and the honored guests clearly took the time to look their best. Even Jackass Johnny got in on the dress up action, but we do wish he would have worn a cleaner pair of shoes. He can clean up so well when he tries.

In the meantime, check out tons of pictures of all the gorgeous men including Ben Affleck, BJ Novack, Magic Johnson, Spike Lee, Steve-O, Timbaland, Peter Berg, TI and many more as well as what they won for so read more

Live Earth Rocks The World on 7/7/07

Molly — Mon, 09 Jul 2007 00:13:22 -0700

Live Earth went down on Saturday and boy did the stars come out for the big event. Concert venues ranged from London to South Africa, Tokyo to New York and everywhere in between (including Antarctica, at which a few of the resident scientists performed), raising awareness about global warming. Eco-friendly stars like Cameron & Leo (looking very hot, btw) made cameos as well as some new faces on the environmental scene. Obviously the festival itself had a considerable impact on the environment (putting it lightly), but hopefully it turned some heads in the meantime. It sounded like not too many of you were planning on tuning in, but did anyone actually watch? Stand out performances?

To see Madonna perform Hey You the song she recorded special for the event and to see LOTS more pics of all the celebrities and performers including (but definitely not limited to) Leo, Cameron, Rihanna, Al Gore, Alec Baldwin, Kevin Bacon, the Beastie Boys and many more just read more
