Katy Perry's quickie marriage to Russell Brand may have bombed, but her album sales will continue to soar. This woman knows how to write a hit, and Katy "sang" her new single, "Wide Awake" at the Billboard Awards yesterday. Like pretty much all of Katy's songs, "Wide Awake" is catchy. Unlike Katy's signature songs, this track is pretty sad and includes the following lyrics: "I'm wide awake. I was in the dark, I was falling hard with an open heart. How did I read the stars so wrong. I was dreaming for so long. I wish I knew then what I know now. I wouldn't dive in, I wouldn't bow down... Need nothing to complete myself. I am born again, out of the lion's den. I don't have to pretend. The story's over now, the end." Katy got hitched while caught up in the honeymoon phase but it sounds like she's learned her lesson!
Award Shows and Just Pics
Arguably it's the red carpets at award shows that are more important than the actual awards themselves. There are more winners on the red carpet than losers, which isn't the case for the nominated attendees at the actual shows. We just love the fashion.
Miley Cyrus Billboard Awards Dress Shows Cleavage and Legs
Miley Cyrus had as much skin as possible hanging out at the Billboard Awards yesterday. Miley wore a short blazer dress from Jean Paul Gaultier with some GORGEOUS Christian Louboutin sandal heels. This is why Miles isn't eating dairy and gluten and this is why she hits the gym multiple times a week for pilates.
I've always like Miley's red carpet fashion choices and her look here is no exception. Her hair and makeup were perfect, and she has the body to pull off such a sexy look. Work it Miles!

Kelly Clarkson Lost Weight
Kelly Clarkson doesn't look like Miss Piggy anymore. The first "American Idol" has a new man and a new figure! Kelly performed at the Billboard Music Awards last night wearing a dress that she wouldn't be able to pull off a year ago!
Kelly was looking good and she sang her new singer "Darkside" live for the first time. Clarkson's dress had a plunging neckline and cutouts in the side. Well good for Kelly! Check out her performance in the video we've posted below.
Bobbi Kristina Accepts Whitney Houston's Billboard Millennium Award
Bobbi Kristina made her first public appearance since her mother's passing at last night's Billboard Music Awards. Bobbi was seen crying throughout the Whitney tribute as Jordin Sparks sang "I Will Always Love You." Bobbi was well spoken and composed as she addressed the crowd at the MGM. Bobbi's boyfriend Nick Gordon walked her up the stairs and kissed her on the cheek before she spoke. Bobbi appears at the 6:00 mark.
Benjamin Millepied is Balding, Natalie Portman is Hot
Natalie Portman appears to have lost all of the weight that she gained when she accidentally got pregnant, and Benjamin Millepied has been doing some losing of his own. Check out that man's head! His receding hairline is becoming a joke. Benny should consider shaving off the hair he has left, and soon.
Portman's husband retired from ballet dancing and does some choreographer work, but he moved from New York to Los Angeles because that's where his wife works. He sacrificed his thriving dancing career to take walks with his kid and be a stay at home parent, so I don't think it's right for me to call him a gold digger anymore. But I will make fun of Benjamin's melon head and that pretty little face of his. No wonder he became a ballerina.
Vanity Fair 2012 Oscar Party Red Carpet Photos
Each year Vanity Fair throws an Oscar party in Beverly Hills that gives us some of the best red carpet photos of the year. Many celebs, like Emma Stone for example, wear one outfit to the Oscars and a separate outfit to the Vanity Fair party. Jennifer Lopez slipped out of her Oscars gown into another low-cut dress for the affair. She partied inside with Casper Smart. He didn't walk the red carpet with her like everyone assumed he would.
Everyone showed up. From Zoe Saldana and Elizabeth Olsen to Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise! We kid. There were no photos of Suri on the red carpet, but you know she was already inside sipping champagne with the best of 'em!
Oscars Viewing Party Red Carpet Photos
The Academy Awards is the one award show that most celebrities don't skip out on. From the A-listers to the... well, mostly A-listers, pretty much everyone walks the red carpet at the Oscars, the Vanity Fair party or Oscar viewing parties. This year Katy Perry's blue hair stole the red carpet show, along with Miley Cyrus' grown and sexy look.
Kim Kardashian and her pregnant older sister Kourtney were in attendance, along with Heidi Klum, Matthew Morrison and his girlfriend, Chace Crawford and more.
Miley Cyrus: All Over Liam Hemsworth
Miley Cyrus is territorial when it comes to her cute Australian boyfriend of the past 2 and 1/2 years, Liam Hemsworth. Liam's career is about to blow up now that he stars in the film adaptation of The Hunger Games. Miley looked beautiful and she brought some old Hollywood glamour to the Vanity Fair party.
Miles kept her hand on her boyfriend's chest while posing for photographers just to let all us b!tches know that Liam is taken. Enjoy him while it lasts hun! I'm not hating; I'm just saying that out of all the pictures that I've seen of them together for the past few years, Miley is the only one giving Liam 'the look of love.' He's always just kinda there.

Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied: Red Carpet Couple
Benjamin Millepied is kind of hot, and Natalie Portman? Well, she's very hot. She's one of my favorite girl crushes and she looked like her typical gorgeous self at the Academy Awards last night.
Benjamin shaved off his hair and he still looked pretty sexy. Benny is slowly going bald, but the buzz cut really hides the fact that his hairline is seriously receding. So Natalie's parents reportedly don't understand why she isn't married yet, but she's a smart chick! Natalie knows that her man knocked her up on purpose and she doesn't want to give him that kind of access to her wealth. She's a badass b!tch!
2012 Oscars Red Carpet Pictures
In case you were living under a rock somewhere, you already know that the Oscar Awards were held last night. The Artist won big, the adorable Octavia Spencer of The Help also won, Meryl Streep picked up her third Academy Award, and Jennifer Lopez almost had a nip slip!
JLo needs stickier nipple tape!
Kelly Osbourne and her tiny waist!
Anna Faris wore the kind of dress you wear to the MTV Awards while Tina Fey looked hotter than usual, along with a thinner Kelly Osbourne. Sandra Bullock wore an ugly dress (we think she's over this sh!t). The Oscars probably remind her of Jesse James. Gwyneth Paltrow remained boring as usual and Jonah Hill is still looking bigger these days. Oh, and we threw in a few pictures of Angelina Jolie's right leg because you know you love it.
