What'd you guys do last night? Pluck your mustache hairs and troll Facebook? Cool, me too. Too bad we couldn't join EVERYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD at the Los Angeles premiere of Justin Bieber's "Never Say Never." I knew my grocery store seemed emptier than usual.

I'm serious, y'all. Everyone was there: Usher, Will.i.am, The Smith Family (of Willow fame), Chris Brown, Selena Gomez, Miley Cyrus, Whitney Port, the younger Kardashian sisters. Even Aunt Becky from "Full House" made an appearance. Oh yeah, and Justin Bieber was there. He has a cameo in the film or something?

Selena Gomez was looking pretty for her boyfriend's hand-holding partner's movie premiere. And check it out, clad in the Biebs' favorite color. Not a very convincing "We're just friends" argument, girl. All we have to say is we're glad we're not your email answerer. Responding to all that hate mail must be a 24/7 job.

Usher, the man who made Justin Bieber happen, showed up to the "Never Say Never" premiere with not one but two adorable dates -- his kids! And I'm sorry, every other child in the world, but this is the coolest however-old I've ever seen (except you, Willow Smith). How does that jacket fit him so well? He doesn't even have developed motor skills yet.
I guess our invite to the "Never Say Never" premiere got lost in the mail? We won't hold it against you, Biebs. That's Britney Spears' job. (Puns!)

Maroon 5 makes sexy music for sexy people. So it stands to reason that at the band's own record-release party, the young, rich and fabulous would be out in full effect. Folks like Aziz Ansari, Whitney Port, Paz de la Huerta (of the new show "Boardwalk Empire") and others were on hand at the Standard Hotel in New York to celebrate Maroon 5's Hands All Over.
The most obviously vocal proponent of Maroon 5's newest slab of sultry funk-pop was Ne-Yo, who made sure to give the ol' Roger Ebert thumbs-up when the camera spotted him with Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine.
Hands All Over came out yesterday, Sept. 21. As a treat for all you fans, check out the band's live performance of their hit "This Love" below.

Tonight everyone seemed to shine at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards -- fashionwise, at least. From fresh, glowing spray tans to an overwhelming amount of rhinestoned and sequined dresses, the red carpet was a parade of shiny moving things. Read on to see who stood out the most.

BEST-DRESSED FASHION DESIGNER NOT WEARING HER OWN DESIGNS: WHITNEY PORT
Whitney Port of "The City" looked summertime lovely in a beige and yellow dress by Yigal Azrouel. But why didn't the aspiring fashion designer wear Whitney Eve, her own line? Surely, this would've been a perfect chance for her to draw some attention to it, and last time we checked, the Movie Awards aren't exactly the place to shy away from shameless self-promotion. That said, this dress looks great on Whitney.

BUSTIEST DEBUT: JWOWW
While Whitney didn't dress in her own line for the red carpet, Jersey Shore's Jenni "J-WOWW" Farley knew to jump on a good opportunity when it basically Jersey-slapped her in the face. The "Jersey Shore" star took her moment on the carpet to debut her own fashion line, named Filthy Couture, wearing a pink sparkly minidress. At least the name of the line is clear in its intentions.

BEST USE OF KHAKI: T.I.
Usually the men we see wearing this much khaki like to go yachting and play polo. We're not sure if T.I. took up the equine sport or sailing during his prison time, but what he does with khaki here is what few can do: Make it look, well, cool.

MOST HIDDEN WAISTLINES: EVA MENDES AND AUDRINA PATRIDGE
These ladies have amazing bodies. Sadly for us, the gorgeous girls got lost in a sack of sequins.

BEST ILLUSION: AMANDA SEYFRIED
Amanda's Stella McCartney dress featured lace swatches mixed with nude panels. Look too fast and it may seem like those nude sections are actually skin. Unfortunately for you, they are not.

MOST EASILY CONFUSED WITH A GUY WHO WORKS AT AN OFFICE SUPPLY STORE: MICHAEL CERA
We're loving the adorable mismatching outfit on Mr. Cera. So fitting! The only thing that would make it better is if his pocket had a graphic calculator and three different types of writing utensils in it.

BEST USE OF SPARKLES: JESSICA ALBA
Jessica Alba knows the Golden Rule of Sparkles: A little bit goes a long way. The shiny tights were just enough, especially since she had so many other great pieces to focus on like the cool necklace, pristine hair, and see-through top.

BEST LITTLE BLACK DRESS: SANDRA BULLOCK
Wow, Sandy! The actress looked amazing in her supershort black dress. The deep V in the back added an extra-sexy element to it, prompting Betty White to publicly advise her not to turn the dress around in the future. Does Betty's fashion love deserve bonus points? We think so.

Today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung featured EXTRAORDINARILY fashion-forward guests Whitney Port, Olivia Palermo, AND Christian Siriano. Um, no pressure or anything. As usual though, Alexa Chung turned up perfectly dressed, but never overly dressed, which just makes her casual-chic style all the more enviable -- and accessible. And as lovely as The City stars Whitney Port and Olivia Palmero usually look, personally I think Alexa's outfit stood out the most. Here's what Alexa wore on today's show.
Monday, June 22
+ Top: Chanel, her own.
+ Cardigan: J. Crew.
+ Jean shorts: Levi's, her own.
+ Rhinestone necklace: her own.
+ Shoes: Doc Martens.
More power to you if you can afford a Chanel top (or Chanel anything). I'd like to live where you live because clearly the recession hasn't hit you. But if you're looking for star-print alternative, check out this fun star-print tee. It's just $35 by With Mocha at YesStyle.com.

Or check out this great Sonia by Sonia Rykiel star print purple jersey dress. It's $162 at Asos.com.

Alexa's camel-colored cardigan is by J. Crew, but check out Delia's even cheaper boyfriend cardigan. It's $34.50 at Delias.com.

Also, HOLY 1992! Alexa Chung was wearing Doc Martens today! Not just regular old old-school black ones, either but metallic Docs. (Appropriately, tomorrow's musical guest is Bikini Kill! Um, just kidding. But that'd rule.) Feeling that? Get a pair of pewter metallic Doc Martens for $110 at DMUSAstore.com.

Lastly but not leastly, Alexa's chunky vintage rhinestone necklace was her own, but a quick search for vintage rhinestone necklaces by brands like Trifari on sites like RubyLane.com should net you some sparkly "Grandma-wore-this-to-prom" results.
PS: Check out these cute star-studded leather lace-up flats! They're $55 at Topshop.com.

+ The City star Whitney Port was snapped having a hot-n-heavy makeout sesh with Robert Buckley, the dreamboat from Lipstick Jungle. We totally support this and any liplocking that does not involve Jay Lyon. (Pretty Boring)
+ You can have whatever you like, but you, T.I., can only have this state-issued orange jumpsuit which you'll be wearing for the next 366 days in prison. Sorry, brah! (MTV News)
+ Who knew that Jennifer Hudson once wanted to pursue the exciting career of tattoo artistry? (Scandalist)
+ We totally forgot about Ian Somerhalder (you know, the hottie from 2002's The Rules Of Attraction). Looks like he'll be playing a bloodsucker on the CW's new show Vampire Diaries. (Socialite Life)
+ Kelly Clarkson looks seriously adorable on the cover of her new single "I Do Not Hook Up." (ICYDK)
+ Mmm... wanna see a huge, disgusting chunk of wax in Zac Efron's ear? Of course you do. (TMZ)
+ In the "Why?/ Because 'Why Not?'" category for today, Lady GaGa will be performing "Poker Face" on American Idol??? (Pop Crunch)
+ Chicago thinks Pete and Ashlee are on the rocks, but WHAT does Chicago know? Meanwhile, over in Twitterland, looks like Ashlee was keeping Pete's seat warm at the Australian VMAs. (Chicago Sun Times)
+ Does Anna Kournikova do anything anymore besides put on bathing suits and make pouty faces? Did she ever do anything else?? (Egotastic!)
Posted 3/5/09 7:13 pm ET by Travis in Buzz Bites, Celebrity, Music

+ Holy HELL. Forget the Oscars -- give me Hugh Jackman as Wolverine in the new X-Men Trailer. NOW. (MTV Movies Blog)
+ She ain't eatin' no more Cheetos y'all! Whatever. Who am I kidding? Love her or hate her, however, there is no denying the power of the machine that is Britney Spears. (MTV Newsroom)
+ When he was a young boy, Miley Cyrus' whipping boy Justin Gaston surely said to himself, "If I just do this one photo shoot for this one soft-core-male-erotic-magazine-hiding-under-the-guise-of-male-model-career-launching-publication then I just might make it big!" (Towleroad)
+ Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson doing CSI?? WHYYY?? Cause they don't have more important things to do like, say, i dunno. RAISING THAT BEBE????? (The Awful Truth)
+ What's this? The City's Whitney Port and her slimy Aussie beau Jay Lyon are still together, despite the trailer for next week's episode? Say it ain't so! (Party Girl)
+ (P.S. Happy Birthday, Whit) (Remote Control)
+ If you're like me, then you totally forgot about saltine short stack Lady Sovereign, who's a'channelin' The Cure for her latest single (hopefully minus Robert Smith's rat's nest) (Popnography)
+ Kelly "I'll-never-be-as-big-as-Beyonce" Rowland (blessing or a curse? ya heard??) redeemed herself in much more important ways yesterday. (People)

I know. It's hard to believe that the guys above actually play music and aren't extremely life-like mannequins, designed to just stand there and stare back at you, making you think slightly impure thoughts because they're SO FREAKING HOT IT'S INSANE.
But they're actually for-real living, breathing human beings AND musicians. You know Jay Lyon as Whitney Port's boyfriend on The City, and that's Potsy on the right, and they're both in the beachy band, Tamarama -- think Jack Jackson meets Jason Mraz on holiday at Bondi Beach. (Do you like how I just casually said "holiday"?) And they're both extremely hot, if I didn't mention that yet. I would mention the fact that they have Australian accents, but your either your head or monitor might detonate.
+ Check out brand-new Tamarama photos, and watch Tamarama's latest video, "Everything To Me."

Yes, Virginia, I actually do have a life outside of 1515 Broadway, 17th Floor, and last night I exercised that right-to-life-ness by going to the super glam-a-rama launch party for MAC's super kawaii Hello Kitty collaboration.
The party was packed with models with legs the width of my forearms, Ciara and Teyana Taylor were there (Teyana underwent a total Wonder Woman transformation thanks to The Blonds, who've designed inTENSE metalwork for Rihanna and Britney, and they'll have a few pieces at the Grammys too), ZAC POSEN was there, and there were lots of "Socials" and such.
But SPEAKING of things that rhyme with "glam-a-rama," I ran into members of Tamarama, who are ALSO on a show you may watch called The City. More specifically, my fellow blogger/ friend Amber (pictured above -- she's totally the Jewish Blake Lively!) ran into Jay and Adam and snapped a picture with both -- they were super nice and obliging, and I don't usually get all OMGTHEHILLSCITY, but seriously ladies, Jay was painfully hot IRL. Like, my eyes started watering a little, and I had to walk away. (And no, Whitney wasn't there.)
Also, I noticed that Cobra Starship's Ryland parked his pleasurecraft at the party, which was held in Chelsea (and had not NEARLY enough bathrooms... the party, not Chelsea). Ryland was there with Alex Suarez, and seriously people HOW are you not listening to their side project, This Is Ivy League RIGHT this very moment? Oh yeah. Because you're watching The City. Fair enough.

+ The JoBros share their top-secret Valentine's Day preferences! Hint: Nick wants to spoil you rotten, Joe wants you to write him an epic love poem, and Kevin sez he's all about surprises. (Sponkit)
+ Steeeeriiiike two! Impish Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus gets herself into another scandalicious photo-related scrape. This time, the culprit is Annie Leibovitz an incriminating, racially-insensitive snapshot where she and her friends make squinty eyes at the camera and laugh. (Scandalist)
+ Meanwhile, word has it Miley will be teaming up with fellow baby-faced teen Taylor Swift for a duet at the Grammys! That is, assuming the buzz surrounding MyCy's faux-Asian photo fiasco has adequately died down by then. (E! Online)
+ Speaking of Grammys, does Lil Wayne have a shot at taking home Album of the Year? We'll put it this way: if we were gonna put money down, it wouldn't be on Weezy. (MTV News)
+ Also, SOMEONE'S feeling a wee bit confident about his 2010 Grammy odds. Says American Idol winner David Cook: "Next year, I’m hoping to hang up a trophy shelf.” You do that! (MJs Big Blog)
+ Despite a momentary kerfuffle yesterday (Britney Spears threatened to pull the plug on her latest tour), the Circus is (still!) coming to town! And Britney's bringin' the kiddies along! (MTV News)
+ Scary boss lady Kelly Cutrone accuses Whitney Port's City friend of being a featherweight, while resident "social" Olivia Palermo puts it all in perspective: "We can't have Shamu walking down the runway."... Or can we?? (Remote Control)
+ Jessica Simpson is heading down to Nashville, where she'll be announcing nominees for the Country Music Awards and ignoring questions about her weight. (Usmagazine.com)
+ Awww, Amy Winehouse is finally waving buh-bye to St. Lucia. Fortunately, the all-play-and-no-work vacation continues! She's shipping off to Jamaica -- or, as the London tabs call it, the "isle of druggies." (The Sun - UK)

At some point, we've probably gotta stop thinking of Tamarama as Whitney Port's boyfriend's band. 'Course at this rate, that'll happen around the same time we stop looking at 30 Seconds To Mars as Jared Leto's group (or listening to Fall Out Boy without picturing Pete Wentz down on one knee and proposing.)
Sorry, Jay, but as long as you continue to melt our hearts on The City with your grand romantic gestures and your amazing Aussie accent ("That Whitney's a key-puh!"), we're powerless to disassociate you from the reggae pop group you're so desperately trying to promote. Which isn't to say we're not that into you -- er, your band -- because WE! SO! ARE!
(At least, 'til Whitney meets someone else and we completely lose interest.)
But before that happens, check out Tamarama's new video, "Everything To Me," and see what all the fuss is all about and why we sorta wish Jay was our boyfers too. True, "Everything To Me" doesn't reinvent the wheel -- the cool, laid-back beach vibe made us think happy, albeit slightly boring, vacationy thoughts -- but what it lacks in imagination, it more than makes up for in eye candy.
