CMT Awards: Shania Twain spills, Biebs and Keith Urban gives fans chills

2011 CMT Awards!

Shania Twain spills, Biebs and Keith Urban gives fan chills?

[Jun. 10]

The CMT Music Awards was a night to remember for sure with a list of stars so savory you could just sop ‘em up with a biscuit. The list included Big and Rich, Rascal Flatts, Lady Antebellum, The Band Perry, Lee Brice, Colt Ford, Hunter Hayes, the JaneDear Girls, Thompson Square and CMT’s Next Superstar finalists Matt Mason and Steven Clawson (just to name a few) for performances on the Nationwide Insurance stage. In addition, the company bestowed the Nationwide Insurance On Your Side Award to country music’s best new live act as determined by the fans. Nominees were Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Colt Ford, The Band Perry and Josh Thompson. NASCAR driver and Nationwide Insurance customer Dale Earnhardt Jr. revealed the winner, The Band Perry. The whole night was full of surprises for country music fans — and delighted anyone who already had a celebrity crush on Hollywood icons like Shania Twain, Gen Me star the Biebs, or Keith Urban. The 2011 CMT Music Awards show kicked off the night with a surprise duet between Wynonna Judd and Kid Rock but that’s not the only surprise the show had in store for us hard-core country fans. Shania Twain may have wanted to say, “I’m Outta Here!” after the fall she took coming on stage. One minute she was strutting her stuff and a second later she was sprawled, legs apart on the floor. Although Shania managed to pull herself up, the grimace on her face during her presentation left me with the impression that she really didn’t quite “Feel Like a Woman” after all that.

Sugarland band waived humanitarian LOVE flag on CMT?

[Jun. 9]

Sugarland band members Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Busch were honored by their loyal fans when they were named the recipients of this year’s Duo Video of the Year at the 2011 CMT Music Awards show last night in Nashville. But they really brought the crowd to their feet as they offered one of the most inspiring performances of the evening singing their anthem Stand Up. Nettles and Busch walked onto the stage carrying a large white flag and began their song as the crowd went wild. The harmonious duo continued to sing as they welcomed Tiffani and Lexi Gilbert, two young sisters from Joplin, Mo., whose home was destroyed during a recent tornado. Graphic photographs showing the devastation left behind loomed in the background as the sisters took center stage and Jennifer Nettles handed them the simple, hand-made, white flag with the single word “LOVE” written on it. The sisters waved the flag along with a smaller version while the audience waved similar flags in unison. It was an emotional and uplifting scene to say the least. And the message was loud and clear, “won’t you stand up and use your voice”.

Nicole Scherzinger brings F1 and Dancing With The Stars chic to X Factor

Who is Nicole Scherzinger?

Nicole Scherzinger brings F1 and Dancing With The Stars chic to X Factor —

[Jun. 9]

With a recently released solo album, being the long time lead singer for the Pussycat Dolls, Mirror Ball Trophy winner of the 2010 television season of Dancing With the Stars, songwriter, and occasional actress Nicole Scherzinger can now add title of Judge for the 2011 television season of X Factor (USA) to her impressive resume. Following weeks of rumors, Fox FREMANTLEMEDIA NORTH AMERICA AND SYCO TV made its official announcement June 6 that Scherzinger will indeed join former American Idol judge Simon Cowell, L.A. Reid, and Paula Abdul on their search across America to find the next global superstar or group to win the life-changing $5 million dollar recording deal. Amazingly enough, this Pussycat caught wind of the change in her position from host to judge while reading her daily SUN. Should be a piece of cake for this veteran considering Nicole Scherzinger has previously joined Simon Cowell as a guest judge on The X Factor UK back in 2010, right? Let’s hope so, because rumors swirling on June 7 and 8 were that Cheryl Cole got fired in her first weeks for having thin skin and a weak constitution (physically and emotionally). Battling clinical depression and a mean case of the blues, Cheryl Cole allegedly did not get along with perky Nicole Scherzinger. Adding the age old odd-man-out triangle scenario between Cole, Scherzinger, and fellow judge Paula Abdul, Nicole was moves from role of host to judge while Cheryl Cole was kicked off.

Bieber Fever: Eminem blasts Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga on Twitter, why?

Bieber Fever!

Rap music star Eminem blasts Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga in tweets, why?

[Jun. 9]

Sounds like Eminem (a.k.a. Marshall Mathers) has caught a little Bieber Fever of his own — of the ill will variety. While green celebrity humanitarian and pet friendly activist Justin Bieber was between appearances at the 2011 MTV Movie Awards and the 2011 CMT Awards (for country music fans), the rapper who does not pull punches was busy getting his name in the press over venting about the Biebs and also pop music star Lady Gaga to his fans. The hard-hitting rapper from Detroit has gone back to his old ways on his new track, A Kiss, hurling insults at the stars around him. This time Slim Shady is aiming for the Biebs and Lady Gaga. He referred to Justin Bieber as somehow evil and hints that star celeb Lady Gaga is a hermaphrodite, reported USA Today. But the track comes off as relatively soft, compared to some of the blasts Eminem has fired at former star celebs like Christopher Reeves and Moby. The whole schtick has left a lot of people (including morning news media on June 9) wondering if Eminem is just losing ground to Bieber Fever and is simply riding coattails to prop up his own record sales.

Does green celebrity Angelina Jolie really let Brad Pitt dye her hair at home?

[Jun. 9]

Okay, moms at home who have been saving money by bleaching and applying hair dye at home for eons listen up. If the following celebrity gossip report is true, then there is great reason to be jealous of Angelina Jolie — not for her money, good looks, or acting talent but for her wise choice of baby daddy husband. Rumors flying in Hollywood the first week of June, 2011 are that not only has Angelina Jolie been skipping using a professional stylist to help her make red carpet appearances (a fact we know is true as of late because the star celebs power couple have personally confirmed the rumors to the media), she is also not using a high dollar hair stylist to do her hair dye or root touch ups in between visits to the beauty salon. Why? Because the natural beauty rumor is that her beloved beau actor Brad Pitt is quite the handy-dandy hairdresser and is doing her green celebrity hairstyles for her — yes, Angelina Jolie is rumored to let Brad Pitt dye her hair at home! What is even better are the claims that after she lets him dye her hair, the two head off for a romantic tryst in the private bedroom suites of their glamorous celebrity homes.
