Kate Hudson Parties With Harry Styles at Matthew's Big Show

Kate Hudson was joined by England's bright young things last night when she attended Muse's special concert for the War Child charity in London. She wore a green jumpsuit while she mingled in the concert's VIP area, which also held Rita Ora, Jamie Hince, model-of-the-moment Cara Delevingne, and Harry Styles, who was fresh off of Taylor Swift's alleged public diss of him at the Grammy Awards earlier this month. Harry recently opened up about Taylor Swift's Grammys show, saying that it was "just another good Taylor Swift performance" when asked about her alluding to him in a song. Cara, Harry, Rita, and Jamie kept the good times rolling post-show with a stop by AnOther magazine and Dazed & Confused London Fashion Week party at Cafe Royal.

Kate has been keeping busy in London while Matthew Bellamy has been working on gigs with Muse. Kate recently attended the Elle UK Style Awards with friend and designer Stella McCartney, and she and Matthew have been enjoying some downtime with baby Bing. The couple's London break won't last long, as Matthew will jet out to the US later this week to continue his tour with Muse.

Kate Moss Wears Long Leather at the NME Awards With Hot Man Matt Bellamy

Kate Moss fought off the Winter chill in London last night with a long leather dress.

Kate Moss fought off the Winter chill in London last night with a long leather dress. She left her home in the evening in the company of fiancé Jaime Hince, who carried two beers for their drive over to the annual Shockwaves NME Awards. The ceremony, held to honor the year's best music, is a favorite of Kate's — she and her then-boyfriend Pete Doherty got in trouble for indulging in way too much PDA at the 2007 show. This year's honorees included Jamie's bandmate in The Kills, Alison Mosshart, who took home the hottest woman statue. Muse's Matt Bellamy, who attended without his "beautiful pregnant" girlfriend Kate Hudson, picked up the corresponding honors for the men for the fourth time. Kate, Jamie, and Alison have been spending a fair amount of time together over the last few days, as they all stepped out for the James Small menswear show during Fall Fashion Week.

Gisele Shows Off Her Cover Model Skills For Muse Magazine

Gisele Bundchen got the black and white treatment for the Spring cover of Italy's Muse magazine.

Gisele Bundchen got the black and white treatment for the Spring cover of Italy's Muse magazine. She shares an accompanying photo shoot with other supermodels dubbed "The Modern Muses," like Karen Elson, Carolyn Murphy, Missy Rayder, and Isabeli Fontana. Gisele has stayed busy with lots of print campaigns lately, and she also appeared on the front of January's Vogue China and December's Vogue Italy. She's likewise apparently a lock for the first issue to come from Vogue Paris's new editor, Emmanuelle Alt. Gisele made her annual runway appearance during Sao Paulo Fashion Week as well, donning a swimsuit for her friends at Colcci. It's a busy time for Gisele professionally, but the working mom always has time for her young son, Benjamin, and her stepson, Jack. Jack's mom, Bridget Moynahan, has been making the press rounds as well chatting up her TV show Blue Bloods, recently telling More magazine about the loving family she, Tom, and Gisele have created for the boys.

Inspired Style: Low-Key Lamé Like Carolyn Murphy

Lamé is one of those fabrics that can go either way — totally chic or totally cheesy.

Lamé is one of those fabrics that can go either way — totally chic or totally cheesy. When I saw Carolyn Murphy looking entirely low-key chic in her lamé harem pants in Muse, I knew I had to replicate that exact look come Spring. It's all about the mix — simple up top, snazzy on bottom. Even if you don't dare to get near lamé, invest in a metallic silver — or gold — skirt ($139, originally $198) or trousers, then finish the look off with a basic, white pocket tank ($31) and killer booties. It's total traffic-stopping appeal.

Which Grammy Performance Are You Most Excited to Watch?

The Grammys are tonight!

The Grammys are tonight! Even though I'm excited to watch all of the nominees vie for awards, I'm even more interested in the evening's performances. You better settle in on the couch, because it's going to be a long night (not that I'm complaining). The list of musicians taking the stage includes everyone from Katy Perry to Bob Dylan, and collaborations abound. Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine will team up with Christina Aguilera and Jennifer Hudson, Maroon 5's Adam Levine will partner with Eminem and Dr. Dre, and Gwyneth Paltrow will take the stage with Cee Lo Green and the Muppets!

I cannot wait to see all of the artists, and what's more, I'll be backstage throughout the evening giving you behind-the-scenes scoop from the Grammy press room! Be sure to check in to the Sugar Network (and on Twitter) for coverage throughout the show, but for now, tell me which performance you can't wait to watch.

Muse's "Neutron Star Collision" Video From Eclipse: Love It or Leave It?

Earlier this week we got our first listen to Muse's "Neutron Star Collision," the first track off the Eclipse soundtrack, and today brings the video in all its Robert Pattinson/Kristen Stewart/Taylor Lautner glory.

Earlier this week we got our first listen to Muse's "Neutron Star Collision," the first track off the Eclipse soundtrack, and today brings the video in all its Robert Pattinson/Kristen Stewart/Taylor Lautner glory. There's nothing crazy or nuanced here — just some scenes from the film interspersed with the band rocking out on stage — but the song is so fitting for the film's context that I can't help but get more excited for its release next month. How do you feel about it?

Eclipse Soundtrack Reveal: Muse's "Neutron Star Collision"

After breathlessly reporting the full tracklist of the Eclipse soundtrack last week, now I have something even better: the first song to listen to!

After breathlessly reporting the full tracklist of the Eclipse soundtrack last week, now I have something even better: the first song to listen to! It's by Muse, perpetual Twilight soundtrack participant, and the track is "Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever)."

It's a grand, epic, and dramatic tune — very Edward and Bella, and perfectly fitting for the third Twilight installment. I also like how the title is a none-too-subtle reference to vampire immortality. The rest of the Eclipse soundtrack will be available June 8, so until then, listen to Muse's contribution when you read more

The Eclipse Soundtrack — Revealed!

With Eclipse hitting theaters in just a little over a month, fans have been anxiously anticipating the soundtrack to accompany the third film in the Twilight saga.

With Eclipse hitting theaters in just a little over a month, fans have been anxiously anticipating the soundtrack to accompany the third film in the Twilight saga. We won't get a chance to hear the tunes until June 8, but today the full track listing has been released!

I'm a fan of the New Moon soundtrack, and its follow-up sounds equally promising. Muse is back for another go, but the rest of the list are newbies to Twilight. I'm particularly excited to see Sia's name in the midst of rockers like The Black Keys, Beck, and The Dead Weather and also stoked to see a contribution from Florence and the Machine. The biggest head-scratcher here might be Vampire Weekend; aside from the obvious tongue-in-cheek similarities, the band's music seems a bit too uptempo for the dark subject matter. That said, I'm looking forward to hearing what they came up with. Check out the full playlist and tell me what you think!
