Miley Cyrus strikes a pose at the 2009 Academy Of Country Music Awards held at the MGM Grand on tonight in Las Vegas.

She is wearing a stunning Monique Lhullier gown with a jeweled one-shoulder and bustline, Cole Haan sandals and H.Stern jewels.

During the ceremony, Miley performed her hit song “The Climb” from her upcoming film Hannah Montana The Movie, which debuts in theaters this Friday.

Here is a picture of her singing:

Zac Efron is seen here posing with his Breakthrough Performer of the Year Award — at the ShoWest awards ceremony at the Paris Las Vegas on Thursday (April 2) in Las Vegas, Nevada. Congrats Zac.

While at the event, he explained to EW why he turned down the role of Ren McCormack in Footloose saying:

“I’m sure Footloose would have been a huge challenge but the actors that I love and the actors that work really hard in this industry are always shaking things up, trying new genres, acquiring new skill sets. That’s what’s always going to appeal to me: the unknown.”

Here’s a great little clip of Zac when he made a guest appearance on Ellen Degeneres’s show about emulating her hairstyle:

Nick, Kevin and Joe posed for photographers at the 2009 Kids’ Choice Awards, held at UCLA’s Pauley Pavilion on Saturday night (March 28) in Westwood, Calif.

The brothers took over Radio Disney on Friday afternoon when they put on an acoustic performance.

They had this to say about their upcoming tour:

“We’ve got new songs, new production elements and new instruments as well. In this new record, we tried to add some different sounds. We’ve been working a lot with horns. After we did the Grammy performance with Stevie Wonder, we had the five horn players behind us. We were like, ‘We should do this to our music and add this different sound to it.’ We incorporated it in our record and we’ll be playing with them this summer!”

Apparently there is a bit of hissing going on by parents about the Pussycat Dolls and whether they should have even been on the KCAs at all. Many felt that they’re not kid appropriate. I’ve read several blogs and am stunned at how many have been complainting about how provocatively they were dressed.

Here’s a sweet picture of real life couple, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens from when they were rehearsing on stage at LA’s Kodak Theater for one of the biggest musical numbers of tonight’s 2009 Oscars. I found it on another site justjared.com

By now you’ve probably seen all the other singers and dancers that were on stage during their performance. It was quite the musical production!

Beyonce arrived wearing this stunning gorgeous strapless black gown with metallic embellishments to the 2009 Oscars held at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday night (February 22).

Beyonce joined host Hugh Jackman, Mamma Mia! stars Amanda Seyfreid and Dominic Cooper, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens, on stage for a special musical performance.

There seems to be quite a bit of chatter as to whether Beyonce was lipsynching during her musical number with Hugh Jackman or was she singing to a track? Some others suggest she used auto-tune, or that she may have relied a wee bit too much on her background singers.

Shame as I found it quite entertaining.

Jessica Simpson, Kellie Pickler, LeAnn Rimes and Julianne Hough took turns reading the nominees for the 44th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards in the Ford Theater at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, Tenn. today.

I wonder how Jessica felt when the announcement was made that her boyfriend’s ex got nominated while she didn’t?

Entertainer of the Year nods went to: Kenny Chesney, Brad Paisley, George Strait, Keith Urban and Carrie Underwood.

They had been at the Clive Davis Grammy Party, left together in this sweet ride which Chris supposedly had rented for 2 k a day. Apparently, something was said, Chris didn’t like hearing it, and he assaulted RiRi… enough to leave visible injuries. As she got out of the car, he took off. Police were called and a warrant was issued for his arrest and she was taken to the hospital with what an inside source said were “bites and scratches.”

He ended up being driven to the police station several hours later by his high priced attorney Mark Geragos where he surrendered and was booked, charged, and bail set at 50k. Bail was paid, and he was released.

“THANK YOU!!!!! THANK Y’ALL SO MUCH FOR REQUESTING AND VOTING FOR MY NEW SINGLE!!! IT’S DOING SO GREAT BECAUSE OF Y’ALL SO THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

“My personal favorite song at the moment (and partly do [sic] to my sister because she NEVER stops listening to it) is ‘Gives You Hell’ by the All-American Rejects! Great, great song! If you’re living under a rock and haven’t heard it yet then go and download it, it’s awesome!

“I’m about to start rehearsing the new record with the band and my first performance of ‘My Life Would Suck Without You’ will be in the Bahamas …..so not too bad, very excited about that! ….So is the band ha! Just saw the final cut of my video which y’all will be seeing soon and it’s super cute!

“Finished the Twilight books (so did my mom and sister) and we cannot wait for the next movie New Moon. Do not judge us, we cannot help ourselves Now my sister and I are going to read a classic ‘The Divine Comedy’. Although, it’s a classic it doesn’t have Edward Cullen in it so I pray it holds my attention ha! peace out, kelly.”

Her song “My Life Would Suck Without You” is currently sitting at the coveted #1 spot on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. She shot up from the 97th spot in one week, breaking the previous record held by Britney Spears’ “Womanizer” who in one week landed a number one spot from a #96 spot.

Congrats Kelly!
