Since I’ve been sick the last two days with a nasty cold, I didn’t really get to do anything the last couple of days. Plus, I didn’t want to. I laid on the couch drinking juice, blowing my nose in paper towel (we don’t have any tissues) and watching Nip/Tuck on DVD. I didn’t even know the 2007 American Music Awards were on but I have to say, even if I did know, I probably still wouldn’t have watched them cause I don’t care. But here are some pictures from the event. Enjoy.

Damn, homegirl gets around! First Rihanna is canoodling with Shia LeBeouf and now she’s fallen for Josh Hartnett? Might I add that she has horrible taste?! I am totally not understanding how Josh Hartnett is hot. He’s a mediocre actor, at that, and he’s looked the same for the last 10 years! Seriously. I’d rather have Rihanna date Shia.. he’s arrogant.. she’s conceited, it fits! At the World Music Awards, Rihanna said not only are they seeing one another but also that Josh is lovely. (In what world, I’m not sure!):

“He is so hot and he is really sweet to me. When we hang out it feels right – even though it’s pretty new.”

“I would be lying if I told you we were not more than just friends… I have so fallen for him, he’s lovely.”

I can’t really picture a celebrity being this open about their personal life–especially at an awards show but whatever. If they’re a couple that’s good. Josh Hartnett has previously dated Scarlett Johansson and can be seen in movies like 40 Days and 40 Nights, The Black Dahlia, and Lucky Number Slevin.

I know Rihanna is really popular right now, but homegirl needs to be really careful cause karma is a bitch, and that’s all I’m going to say.

When asked what she thought about Britney Spears’ situation and Lindsay Lohan’s situation, Rihanna told British “Cosmopolitan” that she’s doubtful.

The “Umbrella” hitmaker has urged the pair to get their lives back on track but insists no one can do anything to help unless they decide to sort themselves out.”There’s nothing I can say that’ll change their minds about their lifestyles. They have to make the change for themselves and I don’t know if they want it bad enough.”

Damn it, I didn’t want to agree with Rihanna but I do. I don’t think they want to change that bad, either. But hey, I bet when they read about other celebrities doubting them and putting them down then they just turn to the bottle. So basically, Rihanna is why Britney is an alcoholic.

Good job, Rihanna. Hope you’re happy!

Did anyone else feel sorta lame watching the 2007 MTV VMA’s last night? When Nelly, the rapper, came onstage to announce someone he was holding a cup of beer and everyone around him was drinking and laughing and at that moment it hit me: I’m watching all these young, rich, talented (some) people party. That’s all it is! All we did was watch them hang out with their friends, brag about themselves, drink and party. And we all couldn’t wait to tune in and watch it. It made me feel sort of sad to think of it that way, quite honestly.

Anyway, word on the street is that Justin Timberlake was so smooth that he took Rihanna home last night after the awards. (Edit: What the hell happened to him and Jessica Biel being really seriously together and stuff? Jessica Biel may be too classy for Justin Timberlake anyway! Okay, back to the story.) Sources say that Jessica Biel, Timberlake’s rumored girlfriend, was in attendance but when it came time to leave, Justin left with Rihanna!

“Justin and Rihanna were hanging out and [talking] for a while. Then they both got up all nonchalant and left together … It was crazy because Jessica [Biel] was there and she was looking all over for [Justin] … Poor girl.”

That’s cold if that’s true. Justin is pretty arrogant and self-involved so I’m not going to be any too shocked if I find out this is true. Did anyone else think his comment about the “Simpson reality shows” was a bit snarky and rude? I love how he acts like at one point he wasn’t at the same level as Jessica or Ashlee. Can you say BIG HEAD!?

Here is a list of the winners from tonights Video Music Awards that were on MTV. It’s funny because I was worried about missing Britney’s performance but all of my friends reassured me that MTV would play the program over and over for the next month. Then I read online that MTV said they were breaking that habit and decided they wouldn’t re-run the show. So, of course, I watched it. Then I read on the internet that on the East coast, it’s already being replayed. So if any of you guys missed the Britney Spears performance, it will be on again. No worries! Okay, back to the list of the winners

Monster Single of the Year & Video of the Year= Rihanna f/Jay Z “Umbrella”

Male Artist of the Year & Quadruple Threat= Justin Timberlake

Earth Shattering Collaboration= Beyonce f/Shakira “Beautiful Liar”

Best Group= Fall Out Boy

Best New Artist (Fan-Voted)= Gym Class Heroes

Female Artist of the Year= Fergie

I’m disappointed that Fergie was a no-show because I totally like Fergie. I bet she would’ve looked hot. I’m also a bit peeved that the cameras didn’t find Justin Timberlake during Britney’s performance. I wanted to see his face! Below are pictures of Pam Anderson, Jennifer Garner, Ashlee Simpson, Alicia Keys, Beyonce Knowles, Lil Mama, Nelly Furtado, Mary J. Blige, Ashanti, Paris Hilton, Rihanna, Shanna Moakler and Travis Barker, Sarah Silverman and Shia LaBeouf.

Edit: Am I the only one who thinks Paris Hilton looks like a 65-year-old woman with too much make-up on top of bad skin with a crappy rug on her head? She totally does. ICK!

Actor Shia LaBeouf and pop singer Rihanna were spotted at Kate Mantilini in Beverly Hills having a romantic dinner, which ended with strawberries and champagne. What a date! Although the couple didn’t hold hands or kiss (most likely because photographers and tabloid writers from Buzz Photo were sitting next to them at the restaurant), it is still a rumor that these two are a couple. Sources say,

It was an interesting evening last night. We had our weekly Global Domination Buzz Foto dinner at Kate Mantilini restaurant in Beverly Hills and we were had just ordered our shrimp cocktails and wine when we noticed Rihanna walk by our table. We thought that was cool and we were just about to dip another shrimp in the tartar sauce when we noticed that she was dinning with Shia LeBeouf!! Holly shit! What a photo and no Dog Pack around. We got on the blower to one of our guys to come over for the hose down. We had a direct view of their booth and we witnessed a very animated Shia during the dinner which ended with strawberries and wine.

This dinner lasted close to two and a half hours so there must be something here. They walked right by our table as they exited the restaurant, but no hand holding, touching or groping. Flashes went off and Rihanna was delighted to pose for photographs, but Shia behaved like a twelve year old running in the garage to hide and whimper. They drove off in is brand new pick up truck. How classy. So no photo of the two of them together, but we can confirm the dinner.

Hmm, I’m sure there will be plenty more news and updates to come. Shia is really getting popular and thank goodness for that Umbrella song because without it I’m sure no one would give a damn about Rihanna. These two make a weird couple. Rihanna is this huge, tall, woman with a big forehead. Everyone says how hot she is but I really just don’t see it… at all. I like Shia, though. A lot! I’m glad he isn’t dating one of Hollywood’s skanks though. Rihanna is a good alternative when it could be Lindsay Lohan or Jessica Simpson.
