- Mary J. Blige was a big winner at last night’s Billboard Music Awards – she took home nine awards including R&B/Hip-Hop artist of the year, female R&B artist of the year and R&B/Hip-Hop album of the year. But the best drama of the evening came when Rihanna, Jay-Z protégé (and rumored ex-fling,) beat out Blige and Beyonce for best female artist of the year. Check back for more behind-the-scenes news on the awards show.
- Speaking of the hip-hop power couple, Beyonce is reportedly throwing Jay-Z a four-day 37th birthday bash on a yacht in St. Bart’s this weekend, Page Six reports. But what seems like your average birthday celebration may in fact be a smokescreen for the pair’s wedding, long rumored to be in the works.
- Uh oh, Mama Spears is mad y’all. A source close to Britney reportedly thinks that the pop star’s recent behavior (the crotch flashing/befriending of aimless heiresses) is “tacky” and expects Britney to come straight home after school this afternoon.
- Gwen Stefani has taken to publicly flirting with Keane pianist Tim Rice-Oxley, who helped write “Early Winter” on Stefani’s new album The Sweet Escape. “He had never written outside of Keane before, but he’s like Clark Kent-subtle, but Superman-talented,” she reportedly gushed. “I’m lucky I was his first, because I’m sure he’s going to go write with lots of girls after me.”
