Katy Perry, Blur and Lady GaGa Enjoy T In The Park

PopSugarUK — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 07:30:00 -0700

Scotland played host to T In The Park at the weekend, with bands like Blur, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Franz Ferdinand, The Ting Tings, and Razorlight performing alongside solo stars like Katy Perry, Lady GaGa, Paolo Nutini, Lily Allen and Calvin Harris. It wasn't all about the music though, as there was some pretty eclectic style choices from the artists present, FabUK has her rundown of all the fashion at the festival! Blur member Graham Coxon almost caused the band to pull out of headlining the weekend, when he came down with a bad case of food poisoning, but luckily he recovered and the show went on, even coaxing some sunshine out of what had been a mostly rainy day!

PopSugarUK — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 04:55:00 -0800

Even though the Brit Awards show finished at 10pm, that certainly wasn't the end of the night for all the celebrities in attendance. Universal's after party was fit to bursting with big stars, from Sophie Dahl, Pixie Geldof, Alexa Chung, Duffy, Mark Owen and Lady GaGa to the host of the ceremony James Corden, who was happy to pose with on-again girlfriend Sheridan Smith. Girls Aloud were in the mood to celebrate as they cuddled up to their partners, with Nadine Coyle and NFL boyfriend Jason Bell hanging out with Davina McCall and her hubby Matthew. It was good to see Cheryl Cole looking so happy with Ashley too.

Meanwhile, Estelle performed for a select crowd at the Adidas And Estelle Atlantic House Party. Skins' Nicholas Hoult, Ralf Little, The Ting Tings, Alphabeat, Beverley Knight and Kelly Osbourne's fiancé Luke Worrell were amongst those who enjoyed the show.

PopSugarUK — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 02:41:47 -0800

Last night we were treated to some awesome performances at the Brit Awards. U2 opened the show before hosts Kylie Minogue, James Corden and Mathew Horne had us laughing out loud with their outfits and dancing. Girls Aloud brought slinky costumes and pink feathers to the stage to perform the Best British Single "The Promise", while Kings of Leon rocked out, Chris Martin and Coldplay were covered in ticker tape, and Take That descended on a central pod wearing glasses. You can see videos of all their performances after the jump.

Major winner of the night Duffy showed off her hand gestures during "Warwick Avenue", which I commented on in my live blog with Scandalist. There were also fantastic collaborations between Estelle and The Ting Tings, plus the Pet Shop Boys with Lady GaGa and Brandon Flowers. Check out the videos of both and let me know which you prefer.

Purples and Blues Rule on Brits Red Carpet

PopSugarUK — Wed, 18 Feb 2009 14:17:03 -0800

There were beautiful shades of blue and purple on the red carpet at the Brit Awards this evening, with quite a few of these ladies making it on to FabUK's best dressed shortlist. Backstage host Fearne Cotton and Alexa Chung kept hemlines short yet still managed to look stylish. X Factor winner Alexandra Burke went for a bright blue number, while pregnant Holly Willoughby covered her bump up with a gorgeous dress. Remember to vote on all FabUK and BellaUK's love it or hate it polls, and stay tuned for the men and the full winners list!

The LBD was also a popular choice, with Duffy keeping it short and Natalie Imbruglia opting for matching accessories. Alesha Dixon and her new fringe added a pop of colour with pink shoes, and host for the evening Kylie Minogue went floor length and fabulous.

2008 MTV EMAs: The Show & Winners

PopSugarUK — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 08:00:00 -0800

The big winners at last night's MTV Europe Music Awards were Britney Spears and Jared Leto's band 30 Seconds To Mars, each of them winning two awards. Hostess Katy Perry beat Duffy to take home the award for New Act, and the Brits were represented by Sir Paul McCartney and Rick Astley who each took home a gong. For the most part, the winners were American, and there was certainly a theme running through the evening as President-Elect Barack Obama's face showed up on everything from the video screens to one of Katy's twelve brightly coloured outfits!

The show was definitely dominated by Americans, which included performances from Pink, The Killers, Kid Rock, Kanye West (with Estelle) and Katy herself, what did you think - would you have preferred more European acts performing as Take That and The Ting Tings did? Or was the overriding American influence reflecting our tastes in music in Europe? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

To see the full list of winners from last night, as well as many, many more photos from the show, just read more.

Album of the Year - Britney Spears, Blackout

Act of 2008 - Britney Spears

New Act - Katy Perry

Ultimate Urban - Kanye West

Most Addictive Track - Pink, "So What"

Headliner - Tokio Hotel

Rock Out - 30 Seconds to Mars

Video Star - 30 Seconds to Mars, "A Beautiful Life"

Best Act Ever - Rick Astley

Artists' Choice - Lil Wayne

Europe's Favorite Act - Emre Aydin, Turkey
