Britney Spears

Paris Hilton hands Britney her second award of the evening, and Paris actually looks happy for her. Britney simply air kisses, takes her award and thanks God her family, Jive records and her management and of course her fans.

I swear to you, Lil Wayne is losing his friging pants on stage, while performing.  It’s like watching ice skaters and secretly waiting for someone to fall.  Everyone in the audience is cracking up.  Calvin Klein has to be pretty happy!!!!!

So only 15 minutes until the MTV VMA’s begin. Here’s the highlights so far:

Katy Perry and Miley Cyrus arrived together in a stretch limo to squash any rumors that may have been started on certain celebrity gossip sites. Katy Perry stated that she was happy they were able to arrive together because “people say stupid things, and try to make stuff up.” ( I wonder who that could be….)

Jordin Sparks looked absolutely petrified when one of the people working the red carpet asked her how it felt to be nominated in a category with Britney Spears and Mariah Carey. She did not know that neither girl has ever won an MTV VMA.

Liz talks about the Mario interview with Russell Brand…

Just the other day I was thinking to myself, “I wonder what Roseanne Barr thinks about VP nominee Sarah Palin?” I don’t need to wonder any longer. Roseanne, has been consistently vocal about her opinion on all things political. She has already had a war of words with Jon Voight. So just what does Roseanne think?

Sarah Palin and the “Women’s” Vote:

The “women’s” vote used to be about issues… day care, health leave, health care, pay equity. Now, it’s about punishing women and dismantling their hard earned civil rights, and the right to birth control. The right has defined birth control as being abortion.

Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan

Channing Tatum can show off even more of his dance moves now, when he gets married. The Step Up proposed to his girlfriend Jenna Dewan, People reports.

Congrats to the happy couple!!

A message from Ellen: As most of you know, I am now a married woman! On Tuesday, I will give you the scoop and share some intimate moments from my summer wedding to Portia, that you can only see right here! (Make sure you have plenty of tissues handy!) I’ll even introduce you to my wedding planner, MINDY WEISS, who is here to give you some pointers and basic rules to ensure that you too can have the ceremony of your dreams! (Rule #1: Don’t forget to tip your planner.) Plus, the Beijing Olympics may be over, but the Ellen Olympics have just begun! And I’ve got gold medal-winning gymnast SHAWN JOHNSON here to help kick things off. Shawn won four medals in Beijing and she’s only 16! (But that’s like 84 in “gymnast years.”) I honestly don’t know what her secret is. I’ve been watching the Olympics for over 40 years and I still can’t always land my quadruple salto. Shawn will give me a flawless demonstration of her gymnastic skills and she may even convince me to join her on the balance beam!
