  • Chrissy Teigen Does Nude DuJour Photos, Says She Was Inspired By Pregnant Women’s Bodies

    If Chrissy Teigen’s plans push through, she will be pregnant for the rest of her life, which is probably why she did a racy photo shoot for DuJour magazine.

    The Sports Illustrated model dared to bare everything for the Bruce Weber photos that appeared in the magazine’s latest issue.

    Some of the audacious snaps show the 29-year-old model frolicking in her birthday suit. Luckily, the waves and surf helped cover her up.

    Teigen was joined by her husband, singer John Legend, and even posed with him in some photos, including one where the couple cuddled a kid (of the goat variety).

    The couple also talked a bit about their schedules. Teigen appears to be headed for more hosting duties while Legend is working on a new album. The adorable duo is looking forward to Legend wrapping up the album so they can concentrate on having babies. “We want a lot of kids. I would love to have three or four of my own, and then adopt a few,” Teigen shares. “So basically I’ll be pregnant the rest of my life.” And it’s the idea of being pregnant, of nurturing a new life inside of her that prompted her nude DuJour spread.

    The Lip Sync Battle co-host says that she looks at pregnant women and sees how beautiful their bodies become. The fact that she will also get bigger boobs “thrills” her, Teigen says cheekily. Plus, it seems her husband loves pregnant women. It’s an admission that the 36-year-old “Glory” singer doesn’t deny.

    “I’m attracted to the heightened femininity,” Legend says.

    So does this mean the Grammy Award winning singer is hoping for a daughter?

    “She thinks I’m not athletic enough to have a boy,” the 36-year-old songwriter shared. “I’m a musician, I’m good with women, and I’m a feminist, so I think I’ll be a good girl daddy.”

    Luckily for him, Teigen is also keen on having a baby girl.

  • Chrissy Teigen Takes It All Off, With John Legend–and a Goat?

    Chrissy Teigen takes it all off in a photo shoot for DuJour magazine. Hubby John Legend appears in the shoot, too, that the magazine dubbed The Ballad of John and Chrissy. Sorry to say–for John Legend fans, anyway–that the ‘Glory’ singer keeps his clothes on for every single shot.

    And then there’s the goat.

    Now don’t let your mind go there. There is nothing but pure adorableness when the cuddly baby goat enters the photo shoot. It appears in shots with both Chrissy Teigen and John Legend, and she is clothed while enjoying its sweetness.

    Both John Legend and Chrissy Teigen grace the June cover of DuJour, making it a must read for their fans.

    John Legend and Chrissy Teigen spoke recently about adding kids–well, children–not goats, to their lives in the future.

    Might that be sooner or later?

    “[Chrissy] thinks I’m not athletic enough to have a boy. I’m a musician, I’m good with women, and I’m a feminist, so I think I’ll be a good ‘girl daddy,” Legend says.

    “We want a lot of kids. I would love to have three or four of my own, and then adopt a few. So basically I’ll be pregnant the rest of my life,” Chrissy Teigen says.

    Just imagine how gorgeous Chrissy Teigen and John Legend’s children will be.

    Do you think they’ll ever share these nude photos of their mom with their kids?

    They’ll have to show them the goat.

  • Meghan Trainor Performs Acoustic Version of ‘Dear Future Husband’ on ‘The Voice’ Finale

    Meghan Trainor wowed fans at The Voice finale on Tuesday night, performing an acoustic version of her hit song, ‘Dear Future Husband.’ Having served earlier in the season as a mentor for Blake Shelton’s team, it seemed fitting that Trainor was brought back for the show’s big finale.

    Accompanied only be her ukelele and one lone man on an acoustic guitar, Meghan Trainor gave a stellar performance. There’s something about all that passion she puts into her songs that is highlighted when presented in acoustic form.

    Meghan Trainor burst onto the music scene last year with her first hit single, ‘All About That Bass.’ Since then her name has been front and center in music publications–both printed and online.

    On Sunday, Meghan sang a duet at the Billboard Music Awards with Chrissy Teigen’s husband, John Legend.

    Contestants on The Voice were no doubt very encouraged by Meghan Trainor. At just 21 years old, she has accomplished what many singers don’t do in a lifetime.

    Did you see The Voice on Tuesday night?

    Spoiler alert: don’t read any further if you missed the show.

    Sawyer Fredericks was crowned The Voice for season eight, with Blake Shelton’s Meghan Linsey as the runner-up. Adam Levine’s Josh Davis came in third, with Pharrell Williams’s second contestant (Sawyer Fredericks was also part of Team Pharrell) taking fourth place.

    In addition to the excitement of Sawyer Frederick’s winning, the crowd definitely loved watching Meghan Trainor perform.

    Did you love her acoustic performance?

  • Chrissy Teigen: Woman Trips and Falls On Her Dress at Billboard Music Awards

    Chrissy Teigen is inadvertently to blame for a woman who tripped at fell at the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night–in a very obscure sort of way. Chrissy Teigen and Ludacris served as co-hosts of the evening’s events in Las Vegas.

    It was while she was en route to the stage that a female audience member tripped on Teigen’s train. It wasn’t even a very long one, so it’s a bit hard to imagine how this happened.

    Us Weekly reports that, “Chrissy Teigen was walking up to the stage at MGM Grand’s Garden Arena on Sunday night when she crossed paths with another woman. Trying to avoid a collision, the unidentified attendee rushed to get out of Teigen’s way, only to trip over the train of the supermodel’s Johanna Johnson red gown and fall to the floor.”

    On Monday, John Legend’s wife took to Twitter to defend herself–claiming she didn’t even realize what was taking place at the time.

    She also shared that she was trying hard herself not to fall down.

    At least Chrissy Teigen’s sense of humor remained intact.

    Did you catch the unnamed woman tripping and falling as the result of a close encounter with Chrissy Teigen’s dress at the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday?

  • Chrissy Tiegen Causes Woman To Faceplant at MTV Movie Awards, Watch the LOL Moment

    Chrissy Tiegen did a great job of hosting The Billboard Music Awards Sunday, apart from one small mishap.

    As Chrissy Tiegen made her way to the stage with co-host Ludacris, the train of her dress tripped up a member of the audience causing the woman to faceplant.

    Chrissy Tiegen didn’t even miss a beat as she continued to make her way to the stage. With a quick look over her shoulder as if to say, what just happened, the host continued her walk up the steps to the stage.

    Before the awards show got underway, Chrissy Tiegen and husband John Legend talked about preparations for her role as co-host.

    “I got a spray tan the other night, which is on my palms,” she told E! News on the 2015 Billboard Music Awards red carpet. “It matches John’s hands as well because he was touching my breasts apparently in the middle of the night.”

    “That’s what happens when married couples sleep together,” John Legend added with a smile on his face.

    One thing Chrissy Tiegen was worried about is her vision.

    “Honestly, I’m blind as a bat so acuvue came to my hotel, gave me contact lenses and I’m still getting used to them,” she told Giuliana Rancic. “If I flub, just blame my vision.”

    Chrissy Tiegen said she had a game plan for the hosting duties.

    “I have a lot to read,” she said. “I have to slow down but for the most part, I think I’m pretty okay.”

    “I became a Belieber, for sure,” Chrissy Teigen adds.

    If Chrissy Teigen is a Belieber, then why on earth can’t Justin Bieber win Selena Gomez back?

    Maybe he needs to spend some more time hanging out with the fashion model and her hubby. If some of John Legend’s suave moves could rub off on Justin, maybe Selena would give him another once-over at the very least.

  • Chrissy Teigen And Hubby John Legend Looking Forward To Having Kids Soon

    Chrissy Tiegen and husband John Legend might have full schedules, but that’s not stopping them from wanting to have kids. And the sooner the better, it seems.

    The 29-year-old model answered “soon!” when People magazine asked about their plans on starting a family.

    “Not super soon, but definitely,” she added. “We love kids. I picture us with three or four.”

    Interestingly, Teigen’s husband more or less said the same thing in an interview earlier this year.

    The 36-year-old crooner has said that it was “only a matter of time” before he and Teigen have their own little bundle of joy.

    “We want to have kids,” the “Ordinary People” hit maker said. “Whenever it happens, we’ll be excited.”

    While the couple does try to be together as often as they can, they’re also very busy with their careers.

    Legend is flying high with the Golden Globe victory he shares with rapper Common for the movie Selma. He’s also busy with the HBO documentary Southern Rites which looks into racism in Georgia.

    Teigen herself is in the same boat. The Sports Illustrated swimsuit model is juggling being a wife, a food blogger, model and Lip Sync Battle host.

    She’s also working on her cookbook and will be co-hosting the Billboard Music Awards with Ludacris on Sunday.

    So how will the two manage having children in their already full lives?

    “John and I go hard in everything we do,” Teigen explains. “And we like a bit of chaos.”

    And since she and Legend don’t have to worry about changing diapers yet, she’s free to focus on her marriage which she describes as “beautiful and fun.”

    “It’s sort of effortless – for now at least,” she gushes. “People must think I’m lying when I talk about how good my husband is, but by all definitions he really is perfect.”

  • Chrissy Teigen, John Legend: Are They Starting Their Family?

    Chrissy Teigen and John Legend plan to have a family. In fact, the fashion model says they want more than one child.

    During a recent interview with People magazine, the upcoming host of the Billboard Music Awards was asked when she and John Legend planned on starting their family.

    “Soon!” she exclaimed.

    “Not super soon, but definitely,” she added. “We love kids. I picture us with three or four.”

    How would Chrissy Teigen and John Legend find time for all those kids, given the amount of time their respective careers require?

    “John and I go hard in everything we do,” she says of the ‘Glory’ singer. “And we like a bit of chaos.”

    Chaos would definitely ensue. The couple already has a house full of dogs. Adding children to the mix might be crazy–but a happy kind of crazy.

    Chrissy Teigen is co-hosting the Billboard Music Awards alongside Ludacris this coming Sunday. The show will air live from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on ABC at 8:00 pm ET.

    Can you picture Chrissy Teigen and John Legend as parents. Just imagine the beautiful children this handsome couple would no doubt bring into the world.

  • Chrissy Teigen Takes Strong Stand Against Photoshopping

    Chrissy Teigen is taking a strong stand against excessive Photoshopping. The super model and wife of singer John Legend believes many have forgotten what ‘normal’ people look like as a result of too much Photoshopping.

    It was while she was a guest on The Meredith Vieira Show on Friday morning that Chrissy Teigen shared a photo of herself–replete with stretch marks and bruises.

    “I’m working on a cookbook, so I was bumping around the kitchen and every door handle would just nick me every single time, and I was actually just taking a picture of the bruises and then I saw the stretch marks in there,” she told Meredith Vieria. “I have those apps, those Facetunes, those Photoshopping ones, and I just didn’t feel like doing it anymore–and I’m never doing it again, because I think we forgot what normal people look like now. The standard is so ridiculous.”

    “Bruises from bumping kitchen drawer handles for a week. Stretchies say hi!” she captioned her photo.

    A photo posted by @chrissyteigen on

    Chrissy Teigen believes that all of the photo editing on social media has gone way too far.

    “It’s gotten to the point where they’re not smoothing their skin anymore, they’re actually changing the shape of their body,” she continued. “Nobody can compare to that when you’re fixing yourself so much. It’s so unfair.”

    Kudos to Chrissy Teigen for both speaking out against Photoshopping and for posting her Instagram photo that clearly shows off her stretch marks. Women–especially young women–need to see that even super models aren’t perfect. Her statement about people not knowing what ‘normal’ looks like certainly and sadly rings true.

    Hopefully more models will follow Chrissy Teigen’s lead and share some photos via social media of their imperfections, letting the whole world know that there are very few physically perfect people.

  • Chrissy Teigen Subject of Racist Rant

    Chrissy Teigen was the subject of a racist rant on Thursday as she was walking down the street in West Hollywood. The Sports Illustrated model was simply enjoying her morning stroll when the incident took place.

    People are outraged by the way the wife of singer John Legend was treated. Some celebrities have come to her support on social media–including Mindy Kaling and Parks and Recreation star Retta.

    Chrissy Teigen shared word of the hateful–and no doubt hurtful–experience via social media. In fact, she wrote a total of four tweets describing the incident.

    Chrissy Teigen is of both Norwegian and Thai descent. The comments the heckler made were definitely racist.

    Mindy Kaling had the following reply to one of Chrissy Teigen’s tweets.

    The Parks and Recreation actress tweeted her thoughts as well.

    It’s shocking to hear these kinds of racist comments being made in light of all that has been done to educate and raise awareness on the subject in recent decades. It’s sad that Chrissy Teigen was the victim of such hate.

  • John Legend to Produce Romantic Drama Starring Miguel

    John Legend, known for his recent hit ‘Glory’ from the film Selma, is going to produce an upcoming romantic drama that will star Grammy Award-winning singer Miguel.

    According to a report from Variety, John Legend’s film company, Get Lifted Film Co., will partner with Furst Films to create the drama.

    Production on the as-yet-unnamed film will begin in Philadelphia in September. Mike Jackson, along with Sean and Bryan Furst will co-produce alongside John Legend.

    Miguel, who won a Grammy Award in 2013 for Best R&B song for his hit ‘Adorn,’ will portray a former one-hit wonder singer who regains his passion for music when he’s hired as a coach for a singing competition show, and finds inspiration in one of the show’s contestants.

    Does this story line in any way remind you of The Voice? Of course no one on The Voice is a one-hit wonder. Even American Idol has better judges than that. The plot description does make one briefly think of shows like these, however.

    John Legend soared to the top of the music charts with his 2013 hit song, ‘All of Me.’ He is married to the very sexy Chrissy Teigen, who appears in the song’s music video.

    Do you think John Legend and his co-producers are on to something here with this romantic drama?

    And what’s your thought on Miguel as the film’s star?

  • Jessica Alba Stunning in Sexy Bikini

    Jessica Alba Stunning in Sexy Bikini

    Jessica Alba is rocking quite the beach body these days. She appears in a recent photo, and is positively stunning, as she splashes in the surf in a tiny royal blue bikini.

    The Sin City actress works hard to achieve her sexy figure. She has even been getting in that gym time while enjoying her beach vacation.

    #werkingitout on #springbreak w @lauren_andersen,” Jessica Alba captioned a photo she shared a few days ago of herself with her makeup artist.

    It’s even plain to see in this shot that she’ll look sizzling hot once she trades in the gym clothes for that bikini.

    A photo posted by Jessica Alba (@jessicaalba) on

    At one point during their getaway, Jessica Alba and hubby Cash Warren were joined by friends Chrissy Teigen and John Legend for some fun in the sun and surf. The whole gang enjoyed some beers together, as well as some swimming with Jessica and Cash’s two daughters.

    A photo posted by Jessica Alba (@jessicaalba) on

    Stylist Rachel Zoe caught up with Jessica Alba during her vacation as well.

    “Yummy dinner w chef #Maya #springbreak @kellysawyer @alitaekman @rachelzoe,” Jessica Alba captioned this Instagram shot.

    A photo posted by Jessica Alba (@jessicaalba) on

    In addition to working out at the gym while on vacation, it’s plain to see how Jessica Alba achieves her amazing bikini body. She never stops. Even while away with her hubby and the kids, she seems to keep up a full-speed-ahead itinerary of friends and fun that no doubt help burn the calories away. She’s always been known as a supermom, and that likely helps keep her in bikini shape, too.

    How nice that Jessica Alba and Cash Warren were able to enjoy this getaway with their daughters and also with their friends. Do you think it’s Jessica’s activity level or her privileged lifestyle that has lent more of itself to her sexy figure?

  • Chrissy Teigen, Ludacris: Hosts of 2015 Billboard Music Awards

    Chrissy Teigen and Ludacris will take the stage at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on May 17th as hosts of the 2015 Billboard Music Awards. ABC and dick clark productions announced the date, time, and hosts for the event on Monday.

    This is the second time hosting for Ludacris. Chrissy Teigen will no doubt add an element of sex appeal to this year’s show.

    “If my extensive collection of all 53 ‘Now That’s What I Call Music’ compilations is any indication, I am both qualified and honored to join Ludacris in hosting this amazing show that spotlights the best music and artists of the year,” Chrissy Teigen said in a statement following the announcement.

    “I had so much fun hosting the Billboard Music Awards last year and I can’t wait to be back!” Ludacris said.

    The finalists for the 2015 Billboard Music Awards will be announced on April 7th. The winners, however, won’t be announced until May 17th at 8:00 PM ET on ABC.

    Last year’s winners included Justin Timberlake. The dad-to-be took home eight awards last year–one of which was for top artist. Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams were big winners, too, for ‘Blurred Lines,’ the song that just cost them millions in court.

    Chrissy Teigen is, of course, married to John Legend. He will likely be on hand to watch his wife co-host the awards show with Ludacris.

    Will you be tuning in to the 2015 Billboard Music Awards in May? Who do you expect might be among some of the year’s big winners? Sam Smith swept the Grammy Awards and did well at the iHeart Music Awards for this year, too. Do you think he will rake in some awards at the Billboard Music Awards, too?

    Chriss Teigen and Ludacris have lots of fun ahead of them. In addition to hosting the 2015 Billboard Music Awards, they are in for a fabulous night of musical performances by some of the past year’s finest performers.

  • Chrissy Teigen Takes It All Off, Nude in Photo Shoot While Hubby John Legend Watches

    Chrissy Teigen took it all off. The model was completely nude on a beach in Miami for a sexy photo shoot recently. Hubby John Legend was on site as well, and watched his wife in hot, sexy action.

    Famed photographer Bruce Weber was in charge of the steamy photo shoot. Although he has worked with Chrissy Teigen before and knows exactly how daring the Sports Illustrated model is, he has the finesse to ease her into the poses he hopes to capture. One of those poses included sitting–completely nude–in the sandy surf. Oh, the places that sand must have gone.

    During the photo shoot Chrissy Teigen wore little to no makeup, and between shots she covered herself in a La Perla silk kimono.

    Alas, the ‘Glory’ singer and Oscar winner never stepped out of his attire–much to the chagrin of any nearby female beachcombers. John Legend remained in his white monogrammed dress shirt and beige pants throughout his wife’s photo shoot. Chrissy Teigen and John Legend were spotted sneaking hugs and kisses during Chrissy’s down time.

    John Legend and Chrissy Teigen make a very sexy pair. Their passion for one another–not to mention their profoundly good looks–make them a couple that people love to watch.

    John Legend definitely loved watching Chrissy Teigen during her fully nude photo shoot on Miami beach.

    Do you suppose he minds sharing his wife–and her gorgeous body–this way?

  • Chrissy Teigen Goes FULL FRONTAL For Miami Photoshoot

    Chrissy Teigen, the 29-year-old Sports Illustrated model, is definitely comfortable modeling while in her bikini. But this week, Teigen turned up the heat in Miami by posing nude in a photo shoot with photographer Bruce Weber. Teigen’s husband, John Legend, was also there watching from the sidelines. For the nude photo spread, Teigen bared her breasts while partially submerged in the water. While she attempted to cover her nipples with her arms, the waves knocked her over a few times which left her breasts in full view. The model was clearly having a blast during the risqué photo shoot.

    Even Legend looks pleased as he was seen watching the shoot from the beach. In between shooting, the couple were seen having a great time. They were even photographed sharing a passionate kiss. According to reports, Legend joined in on the shoot and posed without his shirt on to show off his guns. It was also revealed that the shoot wasn’t a nude-only affair. The couple were also photographed looking elegant, with Teigen wearing a cleavage-baring robe and Legend sporting a white shirt tucked into his khaki pants.

    Teigen and Legend are definitely one of the most passionate couples around, and they revealed last month that they are not above having sex in public. During the Grammy red carpet, the couple was asked about the best place they ever had sex. “The best? Probably the Obama thing,” Teigen answered, which left John Legend flustered. However, they did clarify that they didn’t have sex on the White House.

    Last year, Teigen appeared on the cover of the annual Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue alongside Nina Agdal and Lily Aldridge. Teigen and Legend got married on September 14, 2013. He proposed to her in December of 2011, after four years of dating. Legend’s hit song, “All Of Me” is reportedly dedicated to the stunning brunette.

  • John Legend Responds To Critics Who Say He Shouldn’t Perform In Bahrain Amid Reported Rampant Human Rights Violations

    John Legend was under fire recently for agreeing to perform in Bahrain for the country’s Spring of Culture festival in Arad Fort.

    After all that talk at the Oscars about human rights and African-American rights being trampled on in his own country, many say John Legend shouldn’t perform in a country that is widely known for its human rights violations.

    In his acceptance speech for the song “Glory”, John Legend lamented, “We live in the most incarcerated country in the world. There are more black men under correctional control today than were under slavery in 1850.”

    John Legend also stated that the problems of Selma are the problems of now, including socio-economic gaps and general racism.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8F3g6lkKleY

    However, in the country he will be performing in, the Sunni-dominated regime has been accused of widespread human rights abuses. They have been known to use excessive force against protesters. They have also been accused of atrocities like extra judicial killings, arbitrary detention, and torture.

    Dr. Ala’a al-Shehabi, a prominent human rights activist from Bahrain Watch, is hoping that John Legend will reconsider. She said, “Bahrainis have been enduring a civil rights struggle for decades. Having John Legend sing in Bahrain should be in honor of the people who have lost life and limb in this struggle. Not in honor of the regime that wants to use him to burnish its bloodied reputation.”

    She continued, “Bahrain is facing a human rights calamity given its small size and small population… Scores of ageing and peaceful political leaders are behind bars. If Martin Luther King was Bahraini today, he’d be serving a long prison sentence, for all of the island’s leaders are in prison, on trial or in exile.”

    Sounds like the issues that the people of Bahrain bemoan may be out of John Legend’s realm of understanding.

    Thank you Los Angeles! I had a great time at @power106LA Valentine's Crush!!

    A photo posted by John Legend (@johnlegend) on

    Sayed Yousif Almuhafdah, the vice president of the Bahrain Center for Human Rights, held a similar sentiment.

    He said, “I’d like to tell John Legend that my people, the people of Bahrain, are fighting the same injustice and discrimination African-Americans suffered in the United States. They’re living under a dictatorship that has stripped them from their most basic human rights, democracy, justice, and freedom of speech.”

    He added, “Bahrainis’ democracy campaigners are being attacked on daily basis, arrested, tortured, and unjustly detained. The people of Bahrain are paying their lives as a price for their freedom.”

    It's about that time. #GLORY. #GRAMMYS

    A photo posted by John Legend (@johnlegend) on

    However, John Legend is going through with it anyway. He said, “The solution to every human rights concern is not always to boycott. Often, the best way to drive progress is to show up and participate in the conversation.”

    He added, “Part of my mission in life is to spread love and joy to people all over the world. I intend to do just that in Bahrain, regardless of my disagreements with some of their governments’ policies and actions.”

    What do you think? Is John Legend’s decision to go on with his appearance, despite pleas from Bahrain’s human rights leaders, hypocritical?

  • Chrissy Teigen ‘Proud’ She Wore Undies to Oscars

    Chrissy Teigen was proud of something she did in preparation for Sunday’s Oscars. The fashion model and wife of John Legend–an Oscar winner for his song “Glory” (with Common) from the film Selma–wore a stunning gown with a thigh-high slit that wowed the crowds on the red carpet. Still that’s not what Chrissy Teigen was proud of.

    “I do have underwear on tonight. I’m very proud of myself,” she said on the red carpet at the 2015 Oscars.

    Chrissy Teigen has been quite vocal in the past about not wearing any underwear at all.

    “I just don’t like it,” she said during a prior interview.

    Just because she was modest enough to wear underwear doesn’t put Chrissy Teigen in the ‘modestly dressed’ category at this year’s Oscars. Between that thigh-high slit and the plunging neckline that showed off her ample cleavage, Teigen didn’t leave a great deal to the imagination.

    Fortunately for all those at home watching Teigen at the Oscars, she didn’t do her infamous ‘cry face’ that she shared with the audience and at-home viewers when John Legend won a Golden Globe for “Glory.”

    She was teased mercilessly for weeks after that face went viral.

    Did you catch Chrissy Teigen at the Oscars on Sunday? Did you watch closely to see if the ‘cry face’ was coming when John Legend won an Oscar?

    More importantly, did you have any idea that while Chrissy Teigen doesn’t usually wear underwear, on Sunday night that she did?

  • Anna Kendrick: ‘Pitch Perfect 2’ Star to Perform at the Oscars

    Anna Kendrick: ‘Pitch Perfect 2’ Star to Perform at the Oscars

    Anna Kendrick is set to perform at the Oscars on February 22nd, but it’s uncertain exactly what the Pitch Perfect 2 and Into the Woods star will do. The shows producers, Craig Zadan and Neil Meron, have merely said that Kendrick will do “something special that is sure to be an ‘Only on the Oscars’ moment.”

    Kendrick sang a hit song from Pitch Perfect called ‘Cups’ that made it all the way to the number six spot on the Billboard Charts. It was featured on the Pitch Perfect soundtrack and marked the first time Anna Kendrick was considered both an actress and a pop music star. She joins a lineup of spectacular performances at the 87th Oscars that includes actor Jack Black, singer Rita Ora, and John Legend together with Common, who will perform ‘Glory’ from the movie Selma.

    Anna Kendrick tweeted word of her invitation to perform at the Oscars earlier on Monday.

    Scarlett Johansson, Octavia Spencer, Zoe Saldana and Josh Hutcherson were added to the roster of Oscar presenters on Monday. They will join perviously scheduled presenters including Benedict Cumberbatch, Oprah Winfrey, Meryl Streep, and Marion Cotillard.

    Will you be tuning in to the Oscars to see Anna Kendrick and her “special performance” on February 22? Do you expect she might do an updated version of ‘Cups’ or perhaps even something from the upcoming Pitch Perfect 2? Or will she do something completely unexpected that will find fans even more enamored with this talented actress and singer?

  • Jimmy Fallon, Will Ferrell, Kevin Hart: Lip Sync Battle

    Jimmy Fallon, Will Ferrell, and Kevin Hart teamed up on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon this weekend in the second best battle after Sunday’s Super Bowl. The three competed with one another in a long-awaited lip synch battle. Fallon has touted the match on his show for weeks, and on Sunday night fans were treated to this epic competition. Now lip synching might not seem like a big deal–especially to those who have never attempted it. But more than simply mouthing the words, top notch lip synchers incorporate emotion and some impressive body moves, too.

    Will Ferrell grabbed the fake mic and delivered what can only be called a writhing rendition of Beyonce’s hit “Drunk in Love.” He also belted out Idina Menzel’s “Let It Go.” Ferrell had some pretty stiff competition in the form of Kevin Hart, however, who bought tears to his everyone’s eyes as he movingly lip synched John Legend’s hit ballad, “All of Me.” He paid homage to the Super Bowl half time performer by doing Katy Perry’s “Roar,” too.

    Jimmy Fallon may have actually cheated a bit. In addition to lip synching the “Dirty Dancing” theme song, “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life,” he brought a secret guest on stage to lip synch with him. Fallon had Drew Barrymore waiting in the wings to assist him in the competition. Fallon also performed Kelly Clarkson’s “Since U Been Gone.”

    So who won the competition?

    According to popular belief, Will Ferrell won for “Drunk in Love.”

    Did you check out Jimmy Fallon, Will Ferrell, and Kevin Hart duking it out in their lip synch battle? Jimmy Fallon loves to lip synch. Fans are likely looking forward to the next time he issues a challenge to do so on The Tonight Show.

    That wasn’t all Jimmy Fallon did for musical fun on Sunday night’s show either. He and Carrie Underwood, Sam Smith, Ariana Grande, Blake Shelton, Usher, Meghan Trainor, One Direction, Christina Aguilera and, of course, his house band The Roots, joined together to perform a rendition of Queen’s “We Are the Champions” to congratulation Super Bowl champions, the New England Patriots.

    That will be a hard show to follow. Jimmy Fallon and his cast and crew will do The Tonight Show live from L.A. from Monday through Friday of this week.

  • Idina Menzel Kills It During Super Bowl Performance

    Idina Menzel absolutely killed it during Sunday’s Super Bowl performance. Her live rendition of the national anthem went just as planned.

    Unlike her performance of “Let It Go” during Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, Idina Menzel brought everything she had.

    Katy Perry was the headlining half-time act, but Frozen‘s real life princess had her own swarms of fans waiting for her to sing.

    Several days ago, Idina Menzel assured fans that her performance would be live.

    And it was seriously live. After she belted out the last note, Idina Menzel yelled, “Yes!”

    That was awesome. You could really see in Idina Menzel’s face the sheer joy she had in singing our national anthem!

    When asked about it after her performance, Idina Menzel said, “I didn’t want to rush. I wanted to take in the moment and connect to the song that I was singing, not get swept away by all the grandiosity and excitement, and connect. And sing from my heart.”

    At one point, during Idina Menzel’s performance, the crowd began booing.

    However, it wasn’t directed at her. It was because, for just a moment, Patriots Coach Bill Belichick appeared on the screen.

    Idina Menzel was asked if that was a distraction, to which she replied, “I knew better. I knew I hit the note well, I wasn’t worried it was me.”

    She added, laughing, “And they warn you.”

    Also pre-game, John Legend, performed an amazing rendition of “America the Beautiful” that was sure to bring a tear to the eye of even the toughest and most riled up of Super Bowl spectators.

    Celebrity fans of the pre-Super Bowl performances of Idina Menzel and John legend were quick to post their accolades on Twitter.

    There was no shortage of love for Idina Menzel and John Legend on Sunday!

  • Chrissy Teigen and John Legend, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West: Double Date

    Chrissy Teigen and John Legend went on a double date with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West on Saturday night. So where did the two couples go?

    They started out hanging together at the DirecTV Super Saturday Night Party in Glendale, Arizona, where Kanye West performed. The event was hosted by Shark Tank’s Mark Cuban and Live! With Kelly and Michael host and NFL Hall of Famer Michael Strahan. After the party, the double date kicked into high gear.

    It’s definitely not where one might expect to find people like Chrissy Teigen, John Legend, Kim Kardashian, and Kanye West–but the gang was hungry and it was likely well after hours. That’s how the two couples found themselves out for a bite to eat at a nearby Waffle House.

    Each couple sat in their own booth–adjacent to one another–so that all four could chat while dining.

    Kim Kardashian shared a photo on Instagram.

    “Double date at the Waffle House,” she captioned the photo of herself with Kanye West, Chrissy Teigen, and John Legend.

    Can you imagine how surprised employees at the Waffle House must have been to see these two famous couples walk through their doors? How long do you suppose it took them to realize they were waiting on four celebrities? Maybe the fact that Chrissy Teigen was wearing a white gown gave it away?

    Teigen shared a very similar photo of the two couples on her Instagram account, captioning hers, “Every house should be a waffle house.”

    Chrissy Teigen is actually quite a foodie, having launched her own cooking site just yesterday.

    What do you suppose she really thought of Waffle House cuisine?
