Jennifer Hudson, John Mayer Set to Shine at Grammys
Originally posted 02/07/2009 06:00PM
It's Grammy time – and the lineup of stars scheduled to perform at Sunday's show is stellar!
For music's biggest night, pop stars like Justin Timberlake, Rihanna and Katy Perry will hit the stage. Country crooners Carrie Underwood and Sugarland will also do their thing. Teen queens Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus will offer up a girl-powered duet, while guitar greats John Mayer and Keith Urban are teaming up to pay tribute to the late Bo Diddley. Even best new artist nominees the Jonas Brothers will do what they do best – make girls swoon – inside L.A.'s Staples Center.
In what promises to be one of the night's most emotional performances, Jennifer Hudson will take the Grammy stage. And she'll be warmed up. Hudson stepped back into the spotlight, following the tragic death of her mother, brother and nephew last year, to sing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl last weekend. Hudson also performed TK NEIL DIAMOND SONG at Friday's MusiCares Person of the Year gala.
Hudson is nominated for four Grammys, including best R&B album and best female R&B vocal performance.

While Jennifer Aniston went into coy mode when Ellen DeGeneres pressed her on the topic of John Mayer, the five-time Grammy winner himself was only too happy to discuss life and times with Aniston, in an interview to air Monday on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
And neither he nor DeGeneres was particularly shy about certain private details.
"Do you sleep over?" the TV host asks bluntly.
"Yeah, there are sleepovers, yeah," Mayer replies, prompting a "Wow" out of DeGeneres.

Jennifer Aniston Flipped Out by Gray Hair
Originally posted 02/05/2009 07:45PM
Jennifer Aniston is feeling great as she approaches her 40th birthday next week – but admits to a moment of not wanting to face the milestone.
"I have to say really, I feel better than I ever felt in my life," Aniston says on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, airing Friday. "I did have a moment, though, over the weekend my first like huh ... I don't want to [turn 40]."
The cause of her hesitation?
"I found a really long gray hair, and it kind of flipped me out," she tells the TV host. "It's not my first, but it's the fact that it was so long. I was like, 'Oh that's been there. How many others are there, and what does that mean? It actually brought me to tears, slightly."

"They say that you're often late the first time, so I'm planning to go," the mom-to-be, 31, who is engaged to musician Benjamin Brewer, tells USA Today. "We'll see. People are trying to get me to relax and focus on the baby. It's like being in parallel universes."

VIDEO: Tickle Me John Mayer?
Originally posted 01/30/2009 05:00PM
John Mayer took a magical trip back to his childhood when he found his feet on Sesame Street, standing next to Elmo.
"Of all the highlights in my career, I don't know of one more sentimental than getting to walk through Sesame Street," Mayer, 31, writes on his blog. "Yes, there seems to be somebody always standing right below Elmo and his friends, mouthing along to everything they're saying, but somehow I'm too filled with wonder to ever look at them. When you make contact with those big beautiful eyes, you're done. Five years old again. Life is good."
The segment was part of a primetime special "Coming Home: Military Families Cope With Change," which will air April 1 on PBS.
