Artist have long complained about the tedious demands of press tours to promote their material, which often involves endless interviews of the same questions on rotation. But with social media ruling the world, hosts are now forced to get creative, because funny bits have replaced “gotcha” qustions as the new method for videos to go viral. And Graham Norton surpassed himself with an impersonation prank, where Adele posed in disguise amongst her own impersonators. With a fake nose, new chin, and awkward styling, she got away with it, up until the point she began to sing, of course. Watch for the moment when the ladies discover that Adele is really . . . Adele.
The AMA’s: See the Best Moments
Meghan Trainor and Charlie Puth sent tongues wagging with their lip lock toward the end of their AMA performance, but the spicy twosome insist it was all simply for show, and they are just friends. You know what they say . . .true love begins with an ass grab.
Dressed in all black and rocking red lipstick, Gwen Stefani belted out “Used to Love You,” an emotional ballad off her new solo record, which is presumably about Gavin Rossdale’s alleged affair with their nanny. Blake Shelton tweeted support for his new girlfriend, despite not attending the event.
Apparently Selena Gomez isn’t so sick of that “Same Old Love,” because she recently reunited with Justin Bieber, for the 105th time. And while her performance and choregraphy was shockingly good, I can’t help but feel disturbed by what appears to be a pre-pubescent looking girl dancing around the stage in booty shorts.
Proving that they’re being handed some of the best songs in the business, One Direction harmonized their way through “Perfect,” sans Zayn Malik, who tweeted a curious message about their win.
Just about everyone has attempted to emulate Alanis Morissette’s bad-ass breakup anthem, “You Oughta Know,” so it’s only fitting that Demi Lovato would illustrate its impact with an all-black getup and some very dramatic facial expressions while joining her on stage. The beauty of Alanis is her pulled-back pesonality coupled with her cutting lyrics, so Demi’s performance was a little too obvious for my taste. That being said, it’s worth the watch.
Kourtney Kardashian Calls Scott Disick an “As*hole”
Like them or not, the Kardashians air their dirty laundry in the most honest of fashions, which inludes the demise of Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick’s relationship for the entire world to see. Disck has honestly aired his addictions, but has yet to honestly air his recovery. Hopefully that will change on the current season, because he got sober after Kourney kicked him out. Watch a clip for tonight’s episode, where Kris tries to mediate their strife over Scott visiting the kids.

Adele Performs on ‘SNL’ — WATCH NOW
Adele visited the tiny stage at ‘Saturday Night Live’ for a two part performance, which included her first singles off her new album, ’25.’ Watch below to see her sing “When We Were Young.” She wrote the song with 30 year old up-and-comer Tobias Jesso Jr., who just released his debut album, ‘Goon,’ to much critical acclaim. Jesso Jr. always aimed to be a songwriter, but his struggle toward success forced him to sing his own tunes instead. In fact, his very first show was last year, and according to Jesso Jr., “Before that, [he] had nothing, no hopes of getting to write for anybody, no big dreams I thought would ever come true.” He was “just a 28 year old in his parent’s basement learning the piano for the very first time.” So how did Adele find him, and what precisely sparked her interest? Apparently, the song “Hollywood” set the ball rolling, and she had her manager reach out to his manager, and she was shockingly fearful he’d reject her proposition. She now calls him her new “secret weopon,” and he calls her his “dream collaboration.”

Tim Gunn Talks Kardashians: “An Aura of Yuck”
Tim Gunn’s tour of taking down fashion failures took a new turn to the Kardashian Klan, who the ‘Project Runway’ host feels perpetuate an “aura of yuck.” He objects to their “distasteful” style picks, which I can only guess includes excessive body-con dresses, followed by over-the-top accentuating of their gigantic, plumped up asses.Gunn goes on to suggest that with all their resources, it’s bad to suggest that “you too can dress this way.” Watch the very funny video below.
Charlie Sheen’s HIV Diagnosis & Gender Bigotry
Charlie Sheen has been hailed as a hero for publicly confessing his HIV diagnosis, and I find myself completely confused. First, what’s heroic about engaging in unprotected sex with paid hookers while ingesting drugs, quitting your hit show in a rage, publicly bashing your ex-wife who doesn’t want her children around your “goddesses,” and ALLEGEDLY neglecting to inform your girlfriend that she was exposed to your potentially deadly disease? Second, if ANY women in the same situation made the same confession, she’d be shamed. In fact, his ex-“goddess” Bree Olsen, who claims to have been exposed to HIV without warning (she has tested NEGATIVE), is currently being attacked on twitter with every name imaginable. Sheen insists that he became infected after their relationship ended, but TMZ reports he was diagnosed two weeks after they broke up, which means (if those facts are accurate) she could have been exposed and was not informed.
Charlie Sheen’s choices finally caught up with him, and instead of this being touted as a lesson in protection and clean living, he’s generating an astounding amount of empathy. It’s certainly great to have a famous face associated with this disease in an effort to raise awareness for a cure, but let’s be realistic about his lifestyle and whether a woman would be afforded the same compassion.
Charlie Sheen Reveals HIV Diagnosis. WATCH NOW
There’s a lot of uncertainly surrounding Charlie Sheen’s HIV diagnosis, but one thing is clear. The man is #NOTWINNING. After publicizing his sexual antics, extreme spending, and recreational drug use, his behavior finally has consequences, and the ‘Two and a Half Men’ star has paid millions to former partners. As for who knew what and when, and whether he infected others, he’s insisting he took all the necessary precautions. His ex, Bree Olsen, says otherwise, and the former porn star told Howard Stern that although she does not have the disease, she’s livid he did not disclose his status, and the two engaged in unprotected sex without his disclosure. Watch Sheen’s interview below.
