PopSugar — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 12:00:47 -0800

American Idol finally returned this week, promising us months of new TV to watch during the drought. But while we were patiently waiting for its return, Paula was working on her own music for the first time in over 10 years. She doesn't have any plans to come out with an album as of yet, but check out the single she recorded for Randy Jackson's upcoming compilation album. The video for it is even rumored to be premiering at the Super Bowl in a few weeks. Check out Dance Like There's No Tomorrow and tell us - love it or leave it?

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 -0700

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 read more.

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."

Get Your Groove On With Just Dance by Ubisoft

GeekSugar — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 12:04:45 -0700

Whether it's a game, a movie, or a TV show, whenever I hear the word "dance," I instantly get excited. Details are still sparse, but Ubisoft has just announced a new game for the Wii called Just Dance. It appears to be quite the crowd-pleaser with real dance moves set to classic and modern songs like "U Can't Touch This" and "Groove Is in the Heart." I like to think of it as having your very own Paula Abdul choreographer right in the comfort of your living room. No word on a price or release date just yet.

Study Suggests Opposites Don't Attract

DearSugar — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 10:00:00 -0700

Opposites attract, right? Paula Abdul said so, but as it turns out, she may need to rewrite that song! A new study shows that when it comes to finding a long-term partner, people look for others who share similar characteristics.

In the study, 760 people were asked if they preferred someone who complemented them or someone who resembled them, and you guessed it - they wanted to be with someone who was more like them. These findings supported a previous study that showed sharing a similar personality was more important than sharing similar attitudes about religion. So although you may be attracted to someone who's different, it often times doesn't develop into a serious relationship. Have you found this to be true?

Letterman to Paula: "Are You Drunk?"

GiggleSugar — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 08:00:00 -0700

Paula Abdul appeared on Letterman Monday night to promote a plethora of projects, including a song she contributed to Randy Jackson's new album. Last month, Paula and Randy teamed up to showcase their new ditty at the Super Bowl. Of course, Letterman tried to get Paula to comment on her big comeback performance, but our gal was too busy playing "opposite day" and talking like a robot to give a straight answer. This prompted Letterman to ask the burning question . . .

Star-Studded Celebrity Roster Supports Idol Gives Back

PopSugar — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 13:30:38 -0700

Idol Gives Back brought out quite the crowd from all different areas of the entertainment industry for the taping in Hollywood last night. Reese and Brad shared their pretty faces with the audience, while Mariah and Miley were among the musical performers of the night. Teri showed off her pipes (even though most of you wish she wouldn't) and Fergie took the stage to do a song with Heart. As for the theme of the night, Carrie Underwood summed it up nicely, saying, "It's not about self-promoting. It's not about singing your latest single. It's not about trying to be the most-downloaded whatever on iTunes. It's all about getting people to call in and do something." The charitable special airs this Wednesday, and we can't wait to check out the wonderful edition of one of our favorite shows.

Kanye Guides TV Stars To The Afterparty

PopSugar — Mon, 17 Sep 2007 10:33:36 -0700

The Emmys ended but the fun certainly didn't stop there. Our favorite American Idol judges and boys from Entourage were among the many celebs who headed to Les Deux for the TV Guide party. Obviously the girls from the The Hills would never miss a party at their favorite hotspot, and Eric and Rebecca weren't ready to go home either. Scary Teri even took it upon herself to sing a song or two and even had a complete wardrobe and hair change. The mic was also passed along to Kanye and John Legend who performed for the stars. Looks like Kanye had no problem getting back in the limelight after Rainn Wilson totally stole his thunder during their hilarious skit at the show.

There are so so so many more pics including Ellen Pompeo, America Ferrera and all of your favorite stars so it would be silly not to read more

Knight Rider Theme With Flute and Beatbox

GiggleSugar — Wed, 05 Sep 2007 10:29:49 -0700

As Paula Abdul would say, "Guys, you took the 'Knight Rider' theme song and really made it your own."
