The American Music Awards are finally here and so are we with our honest commentary on the show. We've got high hopes for J.Lo's 'comeback' performance and curious about what Lady Gaga will do to impress her hardcore fans. *Don't forget to refresh the link for the latest!

8pm: First off let's get warm with Janet Jackson clad in brown singing a medley of her hot hits like 'Control,' 'Miss You Much and 'If'. She's definitely adding a funky touch to show. Great opener if you ask us, Ms, Jackson still has it going on. One comment to the crowd tho, can you act a bit more excited? Hagan ruido!

8:08pm: Paula Abdul is looking decent for once! She takes the stage to present the Favorite Pop/Rock band duo or group.It goes to the Black Eyed Peas... We're surprised pop and rock are in the same category, on the bright side Fergie is also looking great tonight.

8:15pm Jason Dean and the beautiful Kristen Bell present the Country Band/Duo/Group award to the Rascal Flatts. They have won it four years in a row! Amazing.

8:16pm: Cue Ashlee Simpson's man Pete Wentz who introduces rocker Daughtry to the stage. His mellow performance isn't necesarily too exciting, but we dig his good vibes.

8:20pm: SHAKIRA! The Colombian powerhouse takes the stage to perform 'Give It Up To Me' with a slew of step dancers, one of whom slaps her butt as she performs. Why Shakira? Why are you becoming like every other leaotard-wearing pop star. We can't help but miss that little lady who caused so much commotion with her magic hips. This on the other hand is underwhelming... maybe we can blame those pin-thin heels for her lack of energy. Plus where was Lil Wayne?

8:29pm: Sofia Vergara gets Latina-crazy to introduce Aussie country star Keith Urban, who sings his hit 'Kiss a Girl,' not to be confused with Katy Perry's 'I Kissed a Girl'.

8:33pm: Reba McEntire presents her 'good buddy' Kelly Clarkson who seems to be one of the few performers who's actually singing live so kudos to Kelly for a beautiful performance of 'Already Gone.'

8:42pm: Snoop Dogg and Joe Perry make a lame joke about getting high and introduce the Female Pop/Rock award which goes to cutie Taylor Swift.

8:44pm: Alex Rodriguez introduces Alicia Keys and Jay-Z and gets booed! Seriously what was he doing there, we know the Yankees won. But seriously... Anyway, it's nice to hear ' Empire State of Mind' live again, and seeing Mary J, Blige and Neyo groovin' to it.

8:50pm: Christian Slater presents alternative rock artist award which Green Day takes home. This is so freakin' high school, you know... when we used to listen to their album Dookie all night?

8:58pm: Nicole Kidman and Kate Hudson --about to have a wardrobe malfunction in a daring metallic dress-- present the Black Eye Peas. Are we the only people in America not obsessed with the BEP? Fergie keeps up the no pants trend. The BEP also appear to be actually singing tho, gotta respect that!

Jennifer Lopez recenlty talked about the new song 'Louboutins' which she is premiering at this weekend's American Music Awards (check out her hot rehearsal here!) and you can finally take a listen to it before Sunday.

The track produced by Christina Milian's man The Dream, is a step up from her crappy  collaboration with Pitbull but 'Lola' could definitely do a lot better than this. Nevertheless, the song is kind of fun for that day when you walk out on a loser bf and although  you may not do so in Chistian Louboutin's signature red-soles like Jennifer, a girl can still dream.

Listen up and tell us: Do you like it better than 'Fresh Out the Oven'?

Those of you waiting for Eminem's Relapse 2 to drop are going to be dissapointed somewhat.

Turns out there's been a change of plans: Relapse 2 is no longer, the Detroit rapper is taking his seven new tracks and tacking them onto a deluxe edition of this year's Relapse entitled Relapse Refill and it's due out December 22.

Stopping three tracks short of an album to re-package an older release? Way to give up while you're ahead, Em!

What do you guys think about this? Will you picking up 'Refill' this holiday season?

Feeling the pressure is nothing new for 50 Cent, in fact, he feels it every time he makes a new album.

In a recent interview with MTV, the rapper discussed how with the release of his latest effort Before I Self Destruct came the pressure to bring the same magic that keeps people interested in his work.

Along with the pressure to succeed, 50 Cent says is trying ignore those who want to see you fail. "I feel like the general public turns you into a favorite by consuming your material."  he says. "We all start from an underdog space. And after they consume it, they begin to resent you for not bearing the same pressures."

He brings up Britney Spears' much-publicized downfall as an example and says that now that she's doing well again the media doesn't really care as much about her. "This is why they like nothing more than to see Britney Spears when she's shaving her head and swinging at the cameras," he says. "We should be covering her more now. They covered it during the confusion, but the intensity, that's less than when she made the comeback."

We agree with Fif, it's pretty sick how we find the breakdown of a celebrity so much more interesting than their rise!

Amy Winehouse was hospitalized over the weekend after an alleged adverse reaction to cold medicine but according to her father, Mitch Winehouse, there was a whole lot going on in her chest and congestion wasn't it.

The Sun reports that on his TV show, Winehouse said his daughter didn't have a cold at all but one of her breast implants was leaking. "She's fine, she just had a little (pointing to his chest) leaky something or other." he said.

It's valid that someone would want to cover that up. Who wants the whole world to know they've got a leaky boob?

At this point we're just glad Amy's not in another drug bender! If this is true, we hope she got her ta-ta's fixed and is back to living famously again.

What do you guys think about this? Tell us in the comments.
