Allie Merriam — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 06:00:00 PST

Katy Perry took the stage last night at the special Grammys nomination concert in LA that also brought out Monica and Selena Gomez. It was an especially sweet evening for Katy, who found out she's in the running for four categories including Album of the Year and Pop Album of the Year with Teenage Dream. She later changed from her silver performance outfit into a gold Georges Chakra gown - what do you make of her look? Katy tweeted a surprised thanks to her team afterward, writing, "It's an amazing honor to be nominated and recognized by my other hard working peers tonight. So happy that I trusted my gut with this record." Katy was eclipsed, though, by pal Rihanna as well as Lady Gaga, who are both up for five awards. Eminem got the most love with eight nods for Best Solo Rap Performance, Best Song, and many more, and there was even love for the Eclipse soundtrack! Check out the full list of nominees over on Buzz.

VH1 Divas: Miley Calls Kanye Disrespectful, True Blood's Sam Takes on Twilight's Jacob, and Paula Channels Ellen!

PopSugar — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 07:45:00 PDT

The star-studded VH1 Divas kicked off last night at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and new diva-inductees like Jennifer Hudson, Jordin Sparks, Miley Cyrus, and Kelly Clarkson walked the red carpet in their glamorous gowns. Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port looked gorgeous and sparkly, and we'll have more on LC's possible LA Candy movie deal later. Miley weighed in on the Taylor/Kanye incident, calling him out as disrespectful. Kelly also had some things to say about it as well as the Paula/Ellen change on American Idol. Sam Trammell, who plays Sam Merlotte on True Blood, also told us he thinks his shape-shifter character could take on Taylor Lautner's Jacob - check out the interviews below!

Paula Abdul opened the night with a surprise performance and jokingly introduced the live show saying "I'm Paula Abdul and this is NOT American Idol." Later in the night she came out dressed as Ellen DeGeneres, dancing across the stage before saying "All kidding aside - [I have] nothing but love for Ellen, and I wish you the best of luck and congratulations on your new gig." There were many performances and duets to enjoy, like Jennifer Hudson and Stevie Wonder, as well as solos by all the divas like Jordin Sparks. Check out our interviews with Miley, Kelly, and Sam after the jump, and stay tuned for more from PopSugar Rush on the night's events!

To read the interviews and see TONS more photos, just

Miley on Taylor/Kanye VMA incident: "I think it's just disrespectful so I think the best thing is - I probably would have done what [Taylor] did and just walk away from it because she looks better than he does."
Sam on Sam Merlotte vs. Jacob Black: "Is he tall? I think he's really tall . . . Oh is that just in the movie? I could probably take him because I could just turn into some huge animal and just take him. Yeah, I could just turn into a big bull and take him."
Kelly on whether she has words of encouragement for Taylor Swift: "I don't think she needs any. She handled it really well and she's just a really sweet girl. I love Taylor and she knows I do. I keep asking her to write me some songs, I love her writing. The whole situation in general was the straw that broke the camel's back. Not only that situation. Unfortunately Kanye was the straw that broke the camel's back. But there's a lot of crappy things that go on in the industry and it's just not right. This is supposed to be fun. We're not scientists, we're not doing anything mind-blowing. We should all be having fun and complimenting each other and lifting each other up. I don't get it."
Kelly on taking stage with Paula, and Paula leaving Idol: "I'm used to that! We've been doing off and on for seven years; we all end up at the same shows. So I'm so used to seeing her everywhere. I don't even know enough about [Paula leaving Idol] but I think she's probably ready. I mean they've done like nine seasons. It's pretty cool she's going off and doing something on her own and right after it she's hosting VH1 Divas. Oh my God, she's performing and I saw rehearsals and it's insane. I'm like a 12-year-old again and singing 'Straight Up.' We're all dying backstage."

Michael Phelps Cleans Up at the Star-Studded ESPY Awards

PopSugar — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 11:00:01 PDT

Many celebs hit the red carpet last night at the ESPY awards in LA to honor the stars of the sports industry. Samuel L. Jackson was the evening's host, and he kept the audience laughing with his jokes about Twitter. Zachary Quinto took the stage looking dapper in his suit, while Miranda Kerr smiled for photos before the scary robbery at Orlando Bloom's house. Demi Moore was also on hand to present Michael Phelps with one of his five awards. It might not have been as snazzy as last year's Justin Timberlake's ESPY hosting gig, but the athletes and stars looked fantastic for the sports-filled night.

Michael wasn't the only one getting trophies - Hollywood's beloved Lakers won Best Team. Other presenters included Rashida Jones and Jeremy Piven, while funny men Andy Samberg and Seth Meyers watched alongside Billy Crudup. The festivities are set to air Sunday evening on ESPN.

Happy Mother's Day!

BuzzSugar — Sun, 10 May 2009 07:30:55 PDT

Happy Mother's Day, Buzz readers! How fitting that for this lovely occasion I happened to come across a clip that has both one of TV's best moms, Clair Huxtable, and Stevie Wonder singing a tune you might be repeating today, "I Just Called to Say I Love You." Aww!

In this clip from The Cosby Show, Stevie and the Huxtable children coax Clair into singing the song along with Stevie, and then by the end, they've all joined in. Even if you've already had a lot of sweetness and love today, this clip is too heartwarming to pass up. And if you're looking for more fun Mother's Day stuff, try your hand at my TV moms' quiz and movie moms' quiz. Have a wonderful Mother's Day!

The Obamas on Stevie Wonder: Isn't He Lovely!

CitizenSugar — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 10:30:02 PST

Last night a grateful Barack and a stunning Michelle welcomed music legend Stevie Wonder to the White House to award him the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. The president made it clear that awarding the prize to Stevie was not strictly business. He said: "I think it’s fair to say that had I not been a Stevie Wonder fan, Michelle might not have dated me. We might not have married."

In fact, Barack and Michelle chose "You and I" by Stevie Wonder as their wedding song. Michelle pointed out that Stevie is doing a good job wooing the younger Obamas, too. The first lady said: "He recently performed with the Jonas Brothers, thrilling a new generation of young girls, including our own."

You can watch the award ceremony, and Stevie's performance from last night, tonight on PBS at 8 p.m. (EST). The Gershwin Prize goes to an artist whose career reflects lifetime achievement in promoting song as a vehicle of musical expression and cultural understanding. Thank you Stevie for sharing your talents with the world and bringing the loving first couple together years ago!
