L.A. Lakers star Ron Artest didn't disappoint us at all.

Selena who?  (Oh, just kidding – they’re still together).

While mega-star Justin Bieber seems very comfortable with Disney Channel diva Selena Gomez on his arm, she might have some competition for the Biebs' affections in the form of hip-hop beauty Nicki Minaj.

At Sunday’s BET Awards in Los Angeles, Bieber and Minaj co-presented the honors for the best male hip-hop artist (Kanye West would go on to win), and the two definitely showed some chemistry.

At Sunday's 2011 BET Awards at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, we asked celebs on hand a very naughty question: "If you would make a sex tape with anyone, and no one would ever find out, who would it be with?”

Both MC Lyte and Lets Stay Together's Nadine Ellis had the same answer: British beefcake Idris Elba.

"Wire Idris or English Idris," the gorgeous Ellis told RadarOnline.com’s Jessica Campbell. "I don't care!"

Legacy of The New Boyz said Zoe Kravitz would be his video vixen of choice, while Ben J chose a girl who's famously excited by whips and chains: "A Rihanna sex tape man -- that would be hard."

Posted on Jun 28, 2010 @ 06:28AM - 7 comments

Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus has taken on a more adult look as of late on the promotional trail for her new album, Can't Be Tamed, and RadarOnline.com asked stars backstage at the 2010 BET Awards at Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium Sunday night if they think Miley's trying to grow up too fast.

“Well, you know I understand how she’d want to grow out of being a Disney kid and she is talented," kid star Gabi Wilson, 13, told RadarOnline.com's Jessica Campbell.

Celeb Apprentice finalist Holly Robinson Peete said, “My daughter was a Miley Cyrus fan and as she is sort of leaving behind her Hannah Montana and moving on to bigger and sexier things … you know she is 17 and I remember I wanted to be grown at 17.”

Bad Girl extraordinaire Natalie Nunn said Miley had to escape the little girl image sooner or later.

“I think she is growing up -- we got to let it go,” Nunn said. “You can only be 16, 15, 14 for so long. Let it go, she is a big girl now.”

The Blind Side actor Quinton Aaron said: “She’s grown I think -- she’s legal I guess.” (You guessed wrong, big guy -- Miley doesn't turn 18 until November.)

EXCLUSIVE VIDEO INTERVIEWS: Chris Brown Breaks Down Crying During BET Awards Tribute To Michael Jackson


Posted on Jun 28, 2010 @ 06:05AM - 22 comments

R&B singer Chris Brown stole the show during the 2010 BET Awards Sunday night in Los Angeles as he paid tribute to the pop icon Michael Jackson, only days after the first anniversary of his death.

The 21-year-old performer -- wearing Jackson's trademark glove and fedora -- sang and danced to several of Jackson's classic songs, including The Way You Make Me Feel and Billie Jean, but it was his final number that captivated the crowd.

EXCLUSIVE: Chris Brown Falls Off The Wagon, And The Couch!

As Brown attempted to sing Man in the Mirror, he broke down in tears.

"I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love... I'm starting with the Man In The Mirror... I'm asking him to change his ways," Brown attempted to sing as his voice cracked.

RadarOnline.com reporter Jessica Campbell got reactions backstage at Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium, and many stars were moved by Brown's tearful rendition.

Chris Brown Praised By Judge At Progress Hearing

“There is nobody better that can portray Michael Jackson better than Chris Brown today in my opinion,” The Blind Side's Quinton Aaron told RadarOnline.com.

EXTENDED VIDEO: Chris Brown Cries During Michael Jackson Tribute

“I was actually onstage while he was doing it,” singer Elle Varner told us exclusively. “[His performance was] right before my performance, so I had to hold it back, I was about to go on in 20 seconds and I was like, ‘Oh my God, I can’t cry right now, I can’t cry right now.'”

Said gorgeous TV personality Claudia Jordan of Brown: “Let him do what he loves to do and what he was born to do and that is perform and I think when he sang Man in the Mirror he was really effected and that really touched him. I think he really, really felt those words and that’s why he broke down, it was a real and pure moment.”

Brown's working hard to rehabilitate a tainted image left in the wake of his brutal beating of ex-girlfriend / pop superstar Rihanna in Hancock Park, California on February 8, 2009. As a result of the vicious attack, Brown was sentenced to five years of probation and ordered to 180 days of community labor as part of the plea deal he made in June 2009 for the assault; he also must keep his distance from her for five years as part of a restraining order tied to the incident.

His first musical offering since the attack, last year’s Graffiti, garnered awful reviews and poor album sales followings its December 2009 release.

Rihanna has since moved on, and has a new man in her mirror -- handsome Los Angeles Dodger outfielder Matt Kemp.

An encore broadcast of the 2010 BET Awards airs Tuesday, June 29  at 7/6c on BET.

Chris Brown Blocked from BET Awards By Jay-Z Says Host

Radio host Wendy Williams gave a no-holds barred interview to PopEater on Wednesday and talked about everything from Megan Fox to counseling Kate Hudson. One tidbit the outspoken personality gave concerned Chris Brown’s lack of involvement with the BET Awards.

Click here to read the entire hilarious interview

“If Chris Brown wanted to make an immediate comeback, the BET Awards was the way to do it,” she said. “...but from what I understand, Jay-Z didn’t even want him in the building.”

A rep for the show and the singer have insisted that Brown was never confirmed for the show to begin with.

Williams doesn’t completely write him off though and sees a comeback in the future if Brown comes up with the right hit: “He does have a chance to get back in and do something, but he has to have a spec-tacular party song. It's gotta be good for hip-hop and Top 40, for all colors and all ages.”
