The new diva move requires quite a bit of flexibility and is not for the faint of heart. Rhinna, Ciara and Beyonce bend over backwards for their fans in their live shows.

If You Liked It Then You Shoulda Put a Lid On It

Last night at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards singer Kanye West ’shoulda put a lid on it’ – referring to  his red carpet bottle of Hennessy as well as his offensively big mouth.  Jumping on stage and grabbing the microphone during Taylor Swift’s Best Female Video acceptance speech, Kanye interrupted, “I’m sorry, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos [Single Ladies] of all time”.  His outburst ended in boos from the audience and Swift walking silently off stage.  The mood of the show was slow to recover and Kanye was soon asked to leave the venue.   Like a true class act however, Beyoncé made it very clear she didn’t need Kanye’s public (intox) defense by delivering an awesome performance, taking home the award for Video of the Year and during her acceptance speech she invited Swift back onstage so she could have her moment.

You booze you lose Kanye.

Uh uh oh….

With vastly different results Melissa George, Vanessa Hudgens and Beyonce Knowles all paired sweetheart necklines with mermaid silhouettes for the 81st Annual Academy Awards held at The Kodak Theatre on February 22, 2009 in Hollywood, California. The sweetheart neckline curves over the bust to drop and meet in the middle. The mermaid silhouette fits tight to the body from chest until knee, where it flares outward. Who do you think wore it best?

Syesha is performing in the top three tonight of American Idol. Sandwiched between the two Davids, Syesha has held on and is the last girl remaining. But it wasn’t an easy road getting here for this young lady, who found herself in the bottom two week after week. She has been recently called the “dark horse” of this competition, however this underdog label by the judges seems to be compensation for dismissing her early on. Continually giving her backhanded compliments they seemed to be grading her on a curve. Last week she sang Tina Turner’s Proud Mary and while once again getting inconsistent remarks from the judges, I thought she fit the part perfectly. Working her Beyonce whiplash moves and her Tina Turner sass she fits right in. Doesn’t she look like a star? Well she sounds like one too. While I don’t always vote for her (I have to admit, often my votes go to David Cook or are at least split between the two of them) I do think she should get the credit she deserves. Congrats Syesha!

Beyonce Knowles (L) and her main man Jay Z catch the fall 2008 Versace menswear presentation with her former Destiny’s Child bandmate Kelly Rowland (R). Fun fact: Kelly has lived with the Knowles family since the age of 10 and is considered more Beyonce’s sister than bandmate and friend. The question that lingers is…where was Michelle? Discuss.

Sugarland (Krisitan Bush, left, and Jennifer Nettles, right) have recently been touring doing a country style cover of Beyonce’s “Irreplaceable.” For the 2007 American Music Awards, B joined the Tennessee-based duo to participate in a down-home version of her R & B hit. In what seeming could have been disaster, turned out to be the best moment of the show! What was your favorite moment of the AMA’s?
