Country Shines Bright and Taylor Cleans Up at the CMAs!

Molly — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 06:00:00 -0800

Last night we gave you a taste of the CMA Awards, and now here's the whole set! For the younger women, it was all about the shine on the red carpet from Taylor Swift's typical beautiful sparkly gown to Carrie Underwood's mirrored number. Carrie was one of the hosts of the night along with Brad Paisley, so once she stepped inside it was all about the costume changes for her. Nicole Kidman had nothing but love for her husband Keith Urban, who was a nominee. Faith Hill and Tim McGraw always look classic together and this was no exception.

Taylor kicked off the show with a wild performance of "Forever and Always" where she threw around her long blond hair as she sang. There were no semi-subtle kisses for Taylor Lautner this time, but the two have a lot to celebrate next time they see each other - she won the biggest award of the night, Entertainer of the Year! She also won for female vocalist of the year, album of the year and music video of the year for "Love Story." Carrie Underwood walked away empty handed, but she and Brad Paisley did a great job hosting the show which included a few jokes at the expense of Kanye West. Kid Rock and Dave Matthews Band were also among the performers at the fun country-filled award show.

Kid Rock Strips Down With Tracy and Jimmy at Hip Hop Honors

Molly — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 16:00:00 -0700

Tracy Morgan is a daring choice to trust to host a big event, but last night he took the stage to MC at VH1's Hip Hop Honors in Brooklyn, NY. His buddy Jimmy Fallon also made an appearance, as did Chris Rock, while a basically shirtless Kid Rock hit the red carpet and performed during the show. Mary J. Blige and Ashanti held down the female side of things and Flavor Flav stuck with his old faithful enormous clock necklace and white top hat. Last week it was all about the Divas, but this time the star power and performers were out to honor the 25th anniversary of Def Jam records.

Kid Rock was on hand last night to help Jeremy Piven celebrate the upcoming release of The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard in Las Vegas. Jeremy walked the red carpet along with Will Ferrell, who was one of the film's producers as well as a guest star. We often see Jeremy posing for photos with the Entourage boys, but it should be interesting to how his latest big screen effort fares at the box office this weekend.

Taylor, Brad and Kid All Hit the CMT Stage in Style

Molly — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 06:00:00 -0700

For the second year in a row, Taylor Swift was the darling of the CMT Awards in Nashville last night. She took home both Best Video of the Year and Best Female Video for "Love Story" whereas last year she won both awards for "Our Song." Even with all eyes on adorable Taylor, Brad Paisley once again walked away with a few statues. Kid Rock also won the Wide Open Country Video award for "All Summer Long" and in his acceptance speech said, "I was supposed to thank two people and I already forgot who it was. . . I think this award has something to do with creativity, and what's more creative than a stripper pole on a pontoon boat?" Check out the winners here and all the photos from the big night below.

The Grammys Bust Out Memorable Performances Galore

Molly — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 07:00:00 -0800

The Grammys may seem like one of the longest shows of Award Season, but last night they mixed it up with some exciting performances. The show kicked off with U2 starring Bono, but the absence of Chris Brown and Rihanna was quickly felt. Justin Timberlake, Al Green, Keith Urban and Boyz II Men all stepped in to form a hodge podge second performance of the night while the young couple dealt with assault allegations and drama. Total highlights included Jay-Z on stage with Chris Martin and the "Swagger Like Us" performance with incredibly pregnant MIA. They looked like they were having so much fun. While Robert Plant and Alison Krauss took home some of the biggest awards John Mayer and Coldplay took home statues too - check out all the winners here.

Gwyneth looked hot introducing Radiohead while Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus sweetly collaborated to sing Swift's new single. Kanye and Estelle sounded fabulous before similarly named Adele won Best New Artist. Jennifer Hudson left the room choked up during her acceptance speech and strong performance. Keith Urban looked handsome on stage a few times - including the performance with John Mayer, BB King and Buddy Guy as a tribute to Bo Diddley - in between moments beside Nicole Kidman in their seats. The Jonas Brothers took the stage with Stevie Wonder just one of the pairings that kept this year's Grammys interesting.

TRL Says Goodbye With JT, Diddy, Beyonce and More

Molly — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 08:30:00 -0800

TRL had its final moments last night with a show bringing back the biggest stars who ever stopped by the Times Square studio. Beyonce kicked it off with a performance that included the classic "Crazy in Love" but sadly no Jay-Z cameo. Carson Daly returned for the show, as did Diddy, who made the most appearances of any celebrity. Justin stopped by to make fun of his frosted tips while Kid Rock smoked his cigar all throughout his performance. Of course, the streets were crowded with one last group of screaming fans that got to watch Fall Out Boy (without Pete Wentz) perform to help complete the show. Even Jesse Camp stopped by with Wanna Be a VJ runner up David Holmes. After a little more than ten years on the air, they counted down its most crucial videos of its history ending with Britney's ". . .Baby One More Time" at No. 1. It was a fitting way to finish off as we all say one more goodbye to TRL.

Carrie and Brad Make the CMAs a Nashville Night to Remember

Molly — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 08:30:00 -0800

The red carpet was fun, but the real action happened on stage at last night's CMA Awards. Reese was out to present Brad Paisley the award for Male Vocalist of the Year while Nicole Kidman left Keith's side for a minute to give out a statue alongside her Australia costar Hugh Jackman. Keith didn't take home any statues but he did perform his new single to kick off the show alongside the hosts for the night, Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley. Kid Rock brought a new edge to the show taking the stage with Lil' Wayne on the guitar. Shania Twain looked simply stunning. Carrie, who showed off many gorgeous gowns, scored Female Vocalist of the Year, but the night's big winner was Kenny Chesney once again - see the full list of winners here. The 42nd CMA Awards kept things fun, youthful and interesting out to perform and celebrate another year in country music together.

Nashville Lights Up With Bright Colors on the CMA Red Carpet

Molly — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 06:00:00 -0800

Country music stars came out in Nashville last night for the CMAs and to honor each other. Reese Witherspoon looked gorgeous out to present an award during the show, but she wasn't the only actress to grace the stage. Nicole Kidman took the stage too, but her first priority was supporting her performing and nominated husband Keith Urban. Jewel looked breezy in blue while Shania Twain made her first big appearance since splitting with her husband. Carrie Underwood walked the red carpet in yellow, but as hostess of the evening had a few dress changes throughout the night before taking home another CMA. While guys like Kid Rock may have dressed a little more country, it was all glam for the ladies on the red carpet.
