Though it seemed pretty clear that Lady Gaga would be bringing home the award for Best New Artist at the 2010 Grammy Awards, a rule change has affected the nominees for that category, making Gaga ineligible for the award.
Apparently, because her first single, “Just Dance” was nominated at last year’s Grammy Awards she no longer counts as a new artist.

That sucks for her! I’m sure she was thinking no one else had a chance of winning. You guys have any other clues as to who might bring home the award? My money’s on Keri Hilson.

The 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards were full of great performers, including UK singer Leona Lewis, who took the stage to sing her newest track, “Happy.”
As can be expected, Leona sounded great and she looked beautiful. Take a look at her performance below. Check out the photos of her on the red carpet, here.

German pop/rock band, Tokio Hotel, dominated the stage yesterday during their performance at the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards, held in Berlin.
The group performed their single, “World Behind My Wall” and they sounded pretty good! Of course they had to throw in some explosions and fire and all that goodness. Check out their performance below. You can also see some photos of them on the red carpet, here.

Yesterday, teen pop band, the Jonas Brothers, presented a tribute to Michael Jackson during the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards.
Nick and Joe did a relatively good job, but what was up with Kevin? Some people are even saying he sounded drunk! It wasn’t a great in leading up to such an important tribute, but at least the actual video itself was pretty sweet.

Yesterday, Ms. Katy Perry took to the stage at the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards, where she opened the show with a medley of songs, sung cabaret style.
She sung some of the most popular songs from this past year including, “I Gotta Feeling”, “When Love Takes Over”, “Use Somebody”, “Halo” and “PokerFace.” Unfortunately, Katy didn’t sound great, but at least it was a great idea. Check out her performance below.

The nominees for the 2009 American Music Awards have been announced! Among the most nominated for awards this year were Michael Jackson and Taylor Swift. The Kind of Pop scored five AMA nods and Taylor Swift was nominated six times.
Hopefully Michael Jackson is able to win something, to kind of complete his memory. I think it’s nice that they are giving people the chance to vote for MJ. Do so here. Also, confirmed performers include Alicia Keys, Black Eyed Peas, Jennifer Lopez and Adam Lambert. Sounds like it’s going to be a good show.

Last night, the 61st Annual Emmy Awards were held, hosted by Neil Patrick Harris and Justin Timberlake was in attendance, due in part because he was nominated. He brought home the award for Outstanding Guest Star on a Comedy Series for his appearances on Saturday Night Live. Good for Justin!
Apparently, he also through in some Kanye West jabs while on stage, telling Tina Fey, “Imma let you finish.” He was looking pretty good last night, and it certainly seems like he was having a great time! Did any of you guys tune into the show?
   

The 2009 MTV Video Music Awards was full of nice style choices, and thankfully, there weren’t too many train wrecks. It seemed like most people were on the right track – some of the attendees thinking so much alike that they even showed up wearing the same outfit.
Singers, Pink and Shakira were both spotted wearing the same Balmain mini with sequins. I thought both ladies looked quite nice, but I want to know who you guys think worked this mini dress the best.  

Did you like Pink’s rocker chic flare more or was Shakira’s she wolf charm rocking …read more
