Such a good sport!
Jessica Sanchez, the 16-year-old American Idol runner-up, isn't too disappointed that she lost to Phillip Phillips. In fact, she thinks he deserved it and is just relieved that the season is over. After the season finale, she told reporters:
"I'm kind of relieved that this whole thing is over, but I'm also going to miss everybody here. I really think that Phillip deserves to win and I'm so happy for him."
She admitted backstage that she kind of had a feeling he "was going to win the whole thing" and explained:
"Phillip has everything about him. He has his funny side and his humble side and he's just an amazing, original artist. I think we all are talented and I think we all are going to have really successful careers."
On top of that, she recognized that Phillips worked harder than all of his competition! Srsly, the guy was in serious pain throughout the entire season because of kidney stones and Sanchez respects his hard work:
"He has worked harder than all of us. We've all been working hard, but he's been having to deal with his health issues, with his kidneys, and I (Read more...)
It’s that time of the year again when pageant queens from all over the states go head to head...er, heel to heel?!
The 61st annual Miss USA competition will be aired on NBC June 3 and it has just been announced who will be taking the seats at the judges’ table this year!
Since E! is under NBCUniversal, it makes sense that two of the five judges are E! stars -- Rob Kardashian and Fashion Police’s George Kotsiopoulous!
As for the others? Former Bachelorette Ali Fedotowsky and Joe Jonas, who'll soon be joining the E! family with his brother Kevin's upcoming show, Married To Jonas!
Also, after winning Celebrity Apprentice this week, as his first assignment from Donald Trump, Arsenio Hall has been given the judging duty as well!
The show will be hosted by Bravo’s Andy Cohen and E!’s Giuliana Rancic and will feature commentators Kelly Osbourne and How Do I Look host, Jeannie Mai!
Don’t forget to tune in June 3 to see which beauty queen takes the bedazzled crown in Vegas!

Because what this world needs is MORE reality television based around entertainment professionals!
The Oxygen network has approved Jennifer Lopez’s dance-centric reality show, starring beau Casper Smart.
The docu-style enterprise focuses on Jenny’s touring back-up dancers, led by Casper as head choreographer, and will delve into the intricacies of tour preparation.
Hmm... sounds sexy to say the least! The show should air early 2013.
Way to pimp out your honey, J.Lo!

Reality star Bethenny Frankel stopped by Jimmy Kimmel yesterday to promote her new book, Skinny Dipping, as well as her upcoming Ellen Degeneres-produced talk show!
In true Bethenny fashion, she kept it real and dished some juicy deets about her past jobs -- including her stint as Kathy Hilton's assistant!
...yeah, you read that right! LOLz!
Check out the interview (above) to hear what OTHER things Bethenny spilled from her secret past!
Ha!
Well, everybody's gotta work their way up the show biz ladder somehow, right?!
Assistants of Hollywood, hang in there -- you are in good company!! You TOO can eventually end up a media and business mogul like Mz. Frankel!
Sorry Phillip Phillips!
Last night's American Idol finale was the show's lowest rated finale in... FOREVER!
20.7 million may sound like a large number -- but in terms of people watching the season finale of American Idol, that's LOOOOW!
On the bright side, Idol's still pulled in 3 million more than viewers than Dancing with the Stars got for their finale Tuesday night. AND, Idol's 6.1 demo score beats the shiz outa DWTS's 3.2 demo.
Actually, no shows did great last night!
Modern Family's season finale was down from last year's, with 9.9 million amazing viewers.
ABC's other finale of the night, Revenge, stayed stagnant with 7.7 million people still interested it's thickass plot.
So Phillip, you're off the hook.

Perhaps one of the MOST emotional moments of last night's American Idol finale wasn't JUST Phillip Phillips being crowned...but one that came as a blast from Idol's past!
Last night's show had its fair share of Idol alum in the audience -- including season three runner-up, Diana DeGarmo and season five's pretty boy, Ace Young!
Though they didn't originally find love on set of the hit show, the current couple got close after starring in the 2010 revival of Broadway's Hair!
The lovebirds' relationship got skyrocketed to the next level during last night's finale, when Ryan Seacrest brought both Ace and Diana up on stage for a surprise PROPOSAL!!!!
Check out the SUPER cute moment that caught Diana (and the whole audience) off-guard (above)!!!
TOO cute!!!
How was the proposal kept so unwraps?! Ace explained:
"I called [producer] Nigel [Lythgoe] directly last week and said, 'I want to do this. I'm going to do this. Is there any way I could do it at the show?' He said 'Yes, I'm not going to tell anybody until the day of ... [and] I want you to figure it out with Ryan [Seacrest]."
Okay, now for OUR proposal -- (Read more...)
American Idol has FINALLY crowned its season 11 winner, after a whopping, record-breaking 132 million votes!!!
Last night on the 2-hour star-studded finale, Phillip Phillips took home the title, with 16 year old Jessica Sanchez not far behind!!
Season ten winner, Scotty McCreery presented the silver microphone trophy to Phil, right before he took the stage to sing his winner's song, Home!
Check out Phil's winning moment -- confetti, tears and all -- (above)!!!
We really like the song they chose this year for him...definitely not as cheesy as some winners' songs of the past! LOLz!
After the big win, Phil took to his Twitter, tweeting:
Wow. Thank you everyone so much. I cant say that enough. Im so overwhelmed. #fb

Where's the button that makes text scream 'WE AGREE' through computer speakers??
Max Clifford agrees that the time is perfect for Mizz Britney Spears to join The X Factor USA!
The publicist has even been saying that everyone around Brit is confident of her success!
Here's what he said:
"Simon [Cowell] and his team and Britney and her team have had long discussions and everything has been done to give it the best possible chance. Simon's totally aware of her background, and everyone's as confident as they can be that it's the right time and place for Britney.
"Those close to her are 100% confident that this will succeed."
WE CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS!
We've been saying for MONTHS that Brit would be perfect for this spot... so it's wonderful to hear that other people think the same!
Oh, and we totally can't forget about Demi, either -- those two are just a slam dunk for this show, and we can't be more excited for it to hurry up and premiere already!
Jeez! HA!
Do U think it's a perfect fit for Brit or what??
