The 2009 mtvU Woodie Awards are happening now in New York City -- a mash-up of music's famous faces, and on-point performances. And we're liveblogging it all on the MTV Buzzworthy blog. Stay here for the backstage, birdseye, and middle-of-it-all 2009 mtvU Woodies report. And watch the 2009 mtvU Woodies Friday, December 4, at 10 p.m. ET on mtvU, MTV, MTV2, and Palladia.

10:51pm -- We're off to the after party, see ya, it's been a blast! For more Woodies gossip, party reports and general madness check in with Buzzworthy tomorrow or check out highlights from the show on the Woodies site right now. We have tons of photos, red-carpet looks, rehearsal performances (some of which you saw here earlier today) and more. PEACE!

10:23pm -- Matt & Kim can't go anywhere without throngs of admirers following them. They're pretty much the Brangelina of the Woodies. Except they don't own several kids and possibly hate each other.

10:14pm -- Alexa Chung is swaying along to "Treat Me Like Your Mother." Jack White looks like a cross between a pissed-off vampire and The Crow. In a way that works, though.

10:09pm -- The Dead Weather is taking the Woodies to the church of bad news on all-white instruments. Allison Mosshart's on a square guitar, and I'm pretty sure it's got the devil inside.

10:04pm --Mary-Louise Parker drops an eff-bomb while intro-ing the Dead Weather! RAWK!!!!!!

10:02pm -- Kid Sister and Kim (of Matt & Kim) are exchanging phone numbers on the floor, David Cross is catching up with Matt Pinfield, and Leighton Meester and Cyndi Lauper, present, and they're each dressed totally future-forward. They're dropping Woodie of the Year.

9:51pm -- Jamie Tworkowski wins the Good Woodie for To Write Love On Her Arms, and dedicates the award to people battling depression and drug addiction.

9:43pm -- Cam'ron drops some knowledge on the Clipse. The vibe is straight-up old-school -- no tricks, no autotune, no stunts. Just hype hip-hop. And RICK ROSS , bossin' behind shades, centerstage. Appropriately the crowd is dancing on barstools.

9:37pm -- The men of Passion Pit are launching tiny burgers into each other's mouths and ordering extra whiskey shots. A saucer-eyed, autotuned Janelle Monae intros the Clipse as the crowd yells out "You're beautiful!"

9:33pm -- Matt & Kim win Video Of The Year, and as their friends in the crowd toss their drink about 40 feet in the air, M&K bypass the stairs, crawl on top of the crowd, and rush the stage. They accept the award, thank pretty much everyone in one swoop, and Kim takes another dive off the stage.

9:27pm -- Death Cab just performed meet "Meet Me On The Equinox" to a mesmerized crowd but pretty much got the U2 reception when they did "Sound of Settling"

9:23pm -- MTV alumni Jon Norris and Matt Pinfield are catching up on the floor.

9:18pm -- David Cross has crown shoved into his pocket, and he's telling a Tom Cruise Scientology joke, for those of you who don't know what Dianetics is.

9:12pm -- Overheard, P.O.S telling someone "I just hope I looked cool," after someone congratulated him on his performance.

9:10pm -- P.O.S.just rapped over live flipcup percussion.

9:06pm -- Asher Roth gives out the Best Performing Woodie to Green Day. They're not here to accept so Asher stagedives instead.

9:04pm -- I'm down on the floor where all of the talent's seated, not at tables but at dozens of narrow glittery bars. There's a 1:2 ratio of kegs to celeb bar, and Oh The Story has their own personal shot waiter. Wisely, one member of Oh The Story cut himself off and ordered a diet coke.

9:00pm -- A production assistant carrying the next Woodie just rushed the award backstage.

8:59pm -- David Cross and the Clipse are having a heart-to-heart. Intense!

8:57pm -- Just walked by David Cross, who's dressed like he's going to a Superbowl party.

8:55pm --  Alexa Chung gives out the Best Music On Campus Woodie -- an award she promises will lead to getting laid more -- to an ecstatic Hotel Of The Laughing Tree whose friends are freaking out on the floor behind me.

8:46pm -- Amber Tamblyn intros Passion Pit via Twitter. Passion Pit is clearly a crowd favorite -- we've got people on top of people's shoulders, air drumming (like the Rush scene in "I Love You, Man," but far far cooler...)

8:42pm -- 3Oh3! is presenting the Left Field Woodie... DRESSED AS LADY GAGA AT THE VMAS!!!! The red dress and the white bird's nest mask thing! Reference was made to soiled panties! :O  Tech N9ne wins it and makes a Woodie joke and drops a KRS-One lyric!!!

8:28pm -- Never Shout Never has the shortest acceptance speech ever: "Power to the people!" Talks least, says most!

8:26pm -- Zooey Deschanel, darling as always in a darling dress, cracked a joke about not taking off her clothes as they swept up Matt & Kim's castoffs. She's presenting the Breaking Woodie Award, which goes to Never Shout Never!

8:23pm -- Pete Wentz, red solo cup in hand, is going rogue. Give that guy a mic and he'll take a mile. He just cracked a swine flu joke and dropped the "douchebag" bomb as he kicked off the 2009 Woodies!

8:21pm -- How'd do you get to college parties? BIKE there! Matt & Kim just biked here from Brooklyn straight into the lobby of the Woodies. They brought some friends who aren't just singing backup, they're stripping down to their skivvies for lessons learned. Undies party!!! Extra points to Kim -- she jumped up onto the drumkit and WALKED ON TOP of the crowd!!!!

8:15pm -- Jack White and the Dead Weather didn't walk the red carpet -- they basically ran it. Jack White needs a role in "Eclipse." Dude is whiter than a natural-born Cullen.

8:10pm -- Never Shout Never's Christofer Drew wins Best Dressed at the Woodies. Hands down. That Mickey Mouse sweater deserves its own award.

8:03pm -- Woah... Nick Cannon just ran down the red carpet! No sign of Mariah Carey...

8:01pm -- What's a college party without flipcup! The mtvU Woodies have their very own flipcup game going on at one of the bars. Kenna, just took aim. Isn't that how you get swine flu?

6:58pm -- The red carpet is under way, and I just caught up with breaking band Sparks The Rescue, who informed me that votes aliens are the new vampires.

"Alpha Dog" is the lead single off of Fall Out Boy's greatest hits package Believers Never Die (which dropped yesterday). And, in sticking with the retrospective theme of the compilation, director Harvey White uses the "Alpha Dog" clip as an opportunity to do the remembrance-of-music-videos-past thing.

It all kicks off with a faux-disclaimer from Pete Wentz, warning viewers not to try any of the acts they are about to see performed in the video. This is bad news for any prospective FOB cover bands, one would assume.

The rest of it is a blinding montage of shots and scenes from previously released music videos, as well as some candid stuff featuring pranks, pratfalls and grown men getting hit in the crotch by baseballs.

This just in from the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards blog -- Tokio Hotel will perform "World Behind My Wall," off of their new album, Humanoid, live at the EMAs in Berlin tomorrow!

Also, online host Pete Wentz apparently wants Tokio Hotel to teach him some naughty words in German! Checkout the 2009 MTV Europe Award blog for more backstage banter, and check Buzzworthy for more 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards photos, news, and more. And check out a brand-new photo of Tom Kaulitz.

Like a splash of rock opera Aqua Viva to the face, this new Fall Out Boy song, "Alpha Dog," from their forthcoming Believers Never Die: Greatest Hits collection is sure to wake you the hell up.

It being a Fall Out Boy song, you can expect the following: breakneck pace, guitars that change lanes without signaling, cocksure choruses, and singer Patrick Stump's voice hopping all over the map, spitting out Pete Wentz's personal/political lyrics.

Listen to "Alpha Dog" here. Fall Out Boy's greatest hits compilation drops November 17.

"Buddy jogging" is so ridiculously '80s. Also ridiculous? Fall Out Boy's slightly postmodern, totally self-aware new video, "A Weekend at Pete Rose's (Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown On A Bad Bet)," directed by Shane Valdés.

The viral video -- (obviously it's viral -- they posted it like a hot second ago, and here I am posting it), stars Panic! At The Disco's (Version 3.0) Brendon Urie and Spencer Smith schlepping "dead" Pete Wentz around Hollywood, which is possibly someone's idea of wish fulfillment.

Obviously the video's a salute to A Weekend At Bernie's (no, you don't need to dig too deep nor be a film historian to figure that out), and it's my favorite new video inspired by a movie. (Last week that honor went to  LMFAO's "La La La," but clearly they've been trumped.)

+ Because Justin Timberlake doesn't have nearly enough to do (running clothier William Rast, golfing, making tequila, owning a BBQ restaurant in NYC, and CERTAINLY the most time-consuming thing: dating Jessica Biel!), an obvious next step would be to do an ad campaign for the Givenchy fragrance "Play." Holla for a dolla! (Popbytes)

+ NYC Police are preparing for the worst when rapper 50 Cent holds a "surprise" free concert in late August in the Queens neighborhood where he grew up. (NY Post)

+ Anyone in the mood for some new Weezer? We are too -- the band just announced their new single will drop on August 25. And if ya look real hard, it might just be floatin' around on the GooTube. (NME)

+ Will someone please tell me why Madonna is swimming in boxing trunks and a basketball jersey? (DrunkenStepfather)

+ Celeb feuds are as old as 'The Hills,' and Perez Hilton is usually the cause. This week, Ashlee Simpson told the Queen of Pink where he can stick it (and we're pretty sure it's a dark, dark place, devoid of all life), after meddling in her and hubby Pete Wentz' drunken affairs. (Cele|bitchy)

+ And speaking of Twitter, you'll be surprised to learn that Robert Pattinson does NOT like Twitter...(PopEater)

+ ...probably because people catch him maaaaaaybe kissing his maaaaaaaaybe girlfriend and co-star Kristen Stewart. (MTV News)

Today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung was noteworthy for several reasons. For one, it's day TWO of Alexa Chung's CAT WEEK! I'm way into that. You may've been way more into the TWO Victoria's Secret Angels Alessandra Ambrosio and Marisa Miller, who are not unattractive according to any reasonable person's standards.

Alessandra Ambrosio and Marisa Miller also danced and bounced and talked about bras and boobs and talked like normal people. Were you surprised, or did you not really even hear them talk, because of how much they DON'T look like normal people? Also, MTV go-to guest Pete Wentz was there and Mark Hoppus surprised him (surprise!)

AND Alexa wore leather shorts a la Ashley Greene! AND saddle shoes... here's more on what Alexa wore.

Tuesday, August 11
+ Sweater: Etoile by Isabel Marant
+ Shorts: 3.1 Phillip Lim
+ Shoes: G.H. Bass & Co.
+ Necklace: Chanel

Parisian designer Isabel Marant makes gorgeous and dreamy, elegantly casual (usually an oxy moron, I know) pieces that are ANNOYINGLY DIFFICULT TO FIND IN THE STATES. Fake the funk and belt this J. Crew sweater instead. It's $24.99.

Are you pro saddle shoes or no saddle shoes? If you're unsure, get a pair for under $20. Payless has saddle shoes for $17.99. (They're called Payless for a reason.)

+ Again, see how to get your own leather shorts, courtesy of Ashley Greene!...

Yep. And there it is. The stupidest thing anyone's ever wore on the VMA red carpet. Besides everything Lil Kim's ever wore to the VMAs, including but not limited to her 2000 VMAs sparkly Superheroine of Boob Bondage situation.

(Haigurlhai)

Anyway, Pete Wentz and Fall Out Boy rolled onto the red carpet at the 2006 VMAs with a REAL LIVE FREAKING MONKEY. Not like a metaphorical "monkey on my back" monkey. An actual real one. A Capuchin monkey.

I've been on the VMA red carpet (PLEASE! NO PHOTOS!), and let me tell you, the VMA red carpet is NO place for a monkey. The VMA red carpet is a place for ass-less dresses. But it happened. And I'm still talking about it, so maybe the joke's on me. Oh yeah, Pete Wentz was also wearing a cape, but you hardly noticed. BECAUSE HE ALSO HAD A LIVE MONKEY WITH HIM.

Pete's already said that he and Fall Out Boy will be at the 2009 VMAs -- see which VMA they're up for -- but this year they better BRING it on the red carpet. Live elephants, a blimp, upsidedown taxi, or ELSE.

Check out more red carpet photos from the 2006 VMAs and get more VMA Fashion.

+ Don't miss the 2009 VMAs live from Radio City Music Hall in New York City on Sunday, September 13 at 9pm!

No, Pete Wentz doesn't *necessarily* die in Fall Out Boy's highly hush-hush new video "What A Catch Donnie" and no, "What A Catch, Donnie" isn't *necessarily* their last video.

"What A Catch, Donnie" is all Patrick Stump's Elton John-ian vocal acrobatics (and Elvis Costello's guest vox, don't hurt), set against a misty, wistful Hemingway/ Decemberists backdrop of nautical metaphors. It's kind of like the movie Castaway but with 100 percent better art direction and no volleyball or whatever that busted thing was.

The "What A Catch Donnie" video was shot off the waters of Los Angeles by Alan Ferguson. Speaking of cameos, watch for Panic! At The Disco's (SO... hard to remember whether or not to use the "!") Brendon Urie and Spencer Smith.

Okay, watch "What A Catch, Donnie" now because I don't wanna spoil anything else for you and get thrown overboard.

Finally, I've discovered people more harshly truthful and judgmental than myself! All-Time Low reads minds -- yours, mine, Pete Wentz's and Mark Hoppus', who make cameos in their new "Weightless" video -- and the results are hilarious, real, and enough to convince me that this video is kind of like the 2000 Mel Gibson movie What Women Want, minus the gynecology. Except it doesn't suck.

Watch All Time Low's new video, "Weightless," directed by Matthew Stawski, now, and listen to their new album, Nothing Personal on "The Leak."
