It's that time of year again!
The People Choice Awards honors the big stars that were chosen by the fans! And if you weren't able to watch tonight's big show, well, we feel sorry for you because it was absolutely fantastic. But don't feel too bad. We round up all the night's biggest highlights so you don't feel left out.
Let's get to it...
Best Intro Ever?!: Crossing over from their show, 2 Broke GirlsKat Dennings and Beth Behrs began the People's Choice Awards in an epic manner. Numerous nominees—including Christina AguileraSarah Michelle Gellar and Ian Somerhalder—showed up at the diner, letting viewers know it was time for the show! Once Kaley Cuoco showed up and handed over hosting duties, it was time to get to it.
Best Food: Everyone got burgers and fries! Jealous.
Worst Let Down: Sorry, Ellen DeGeneres, you don't get to go up and accept Justin Timberlake's award with him. We know. It sucks. But at least you got a shout out (along with J.T.'s wife, Jessica Biel. Too cute!).

Best Bump: Drew Barrymore flaunted her growing baby bump when presenting the award for Favorite Comedic Movie Actor. And then Ellen called her "fat." Oh, you guys, she was totes kidding. Adam Sandler kept the jokes rolling when he told her, "You do look like you lost weight."
Worst Attempt at Having an Awkward Moment: Zac Efron does not have awkward moments. Even when he tries to have an awkward moment, he doesn't. He just stands there looking amazing.
Best Musical Performance: This was done by none other than your host Beth Behrs, who performed tidbits of "Wrecking Ball," "Before He Cheats" and "Baby Got Back." She even twerked and ended her singing showdown by dropping the mike and walking off stage.
Awkward Alert?: Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder may be broken up in real life, but they didn't let it get too awkward when accepting the award for Best Onscreen Chemistry. Nope, not at all. P.S. Can something actually happen between Malin Akerman and Shemar Moore? That was hot!
Best Newlywed Kiss: First-time winner Kaley Cuoco gave her new hubby Ryan Sweetinga quick smooch before accepting her award on stage. "This is the second best thing to happen to me all year, the first was marrying you baby," she said.
Go Brit!: Britney Spears, after carefully going up the stairs, won a People's Choice Award for Best Pop Artist, and she was so thankful y'all.
Throwback Thanks: Sarah Michelle Gellar won her first PCA and made sure to thank the peeps from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. People cheered and suddenly it was 2000 again.
Best (or Worst?) Seating Arrangement: Kaley Cuoco was sitting inbetween her hubby Ryan Sweeting and ex-boyfriend/costar Johnny Galecki.

Bruno Mars Is the Most Illegally Downloaded Artist of 2013


Something tells us this is one record Bruno Mars didn't want to rack up.
According to the New York Times, the "Gorilla" crooner's music was illegally downloaded more than any other artist in 2013.
The report, which was compiled in a study by Musicmetric, listed 20 artists whose tunes have been illegally downloaded a total of 64.5 million times in 2013.
And Mars wasn't alone.In addition to his roughly 5.8 million downloads, Rihanna followed close behind him with 5.4 million illegal downloads, as well as Daft Punk with 4.2 million and Justin Timberlake with 3.9 million respectively.
Illegal downloaded music aside, Mars put on quite the show on New Year's Eve during his performance at the grand opening of the Chelsea Hotel at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas.
After asking audience members what song they should sing as midnight approached, the singer reportedly went back to his Elvis impersonator roots, singing "Jailhouse Rock," and then Michael Jackson's "The Way You Make Me Feel," according to the New York Post's Page Six.
2014 is already gearing up to be a big year for the 28-year-old crooner, who is set to perform at the Super Bowl XLVIII halftime show Feb. 2.

Justin Timberlake Is a Stud on GQ Cover, Insists That He's "Not Cool" (But He's Wrong)

GQ, Men of the Year, Justin TimberlakeSebastian Kim/GQ
Oh Justin Timberlake, you are perfection.
The insanely handsome star covers one of the five GQ Men of the Year issues looking absolutely amazing in a casual blue blazer and pant suit which accentuates his baby blues.
Along with his brooding yet sexy look on the cover, J.T. discusses a number of topics inside the magazine, including this absurd idea that he's "not cool." Um, what?! Clearly, he's mistaken, but his explanation on the matter makes a bit more sense.
"Listen, I'm not cool," Timberlake said. "Being cool is about keeping your blood pressure steady. So no. Don't be cool. Be passionate. Be dedicated. Be tenacious. Be uncompromising. Be pissed. Be happy. Be sad."
He continued, "It's important to take risks. To do sketch comedy when you're supposed to be staying in your lane as a singer. To do movies when all people want is your next album. I've made a career out of doing things that I should not be doing. I wasn't cool about it because being cool would have meant I passed up on those opportunities. If you do that, it's because you're afraid. And what are you afraid of?"
Well, now we understand.
The 32-year-old Memphis native also spoke about dealing with harsh critics in this industry, and told the mag, "It's a struggling city with a defeatist attitude. I'm from this town, and I grew up with a little bit of a chip on my shoulder, so sometimes I find it funny that I've been able to acquire the patience it takes to be kind to people in our business. Because sometimes I just want to f--king kill everybody."
Regardless, J.T. doesn't spend too much time worrying about what's being said, because he's already working on his next big project.
"I don't see myself as someone who's ever going to be defined by one moment," he said. "It's on to the next."

Justin Timberlake Wants to Play the Riddler to Ben Affleck's Batman

Justin Timberlake, Jimmy FallonYoutube
Ben Affleck might need to watch out for Justin Timberlake.
The reason? Well, J.T. wants to play the Riddler opposite Ben as Batman!
On Tuesday, Aug. 27, Justin spoke with Fresh 102.7's Jim and Kim Show about his Runner Runner costar being cast in the upcoming Man of Steel sequel. "Ben Affleck as Batman, I like it," he said. "I worked with Ben last summer and I've seen his process. I think he's a brilliant filmmaker. I think he's an extreme talent so he could surprise a lot of people."

But when Justin was asked if he'd want to play Robin, he answered with a laugh, "Not a chance in hell," clarifying, "I ain't playin' Robin. I have no aspiration to ever be a superhero in a movie. Now VILLAIN! Ill tell you the villain I want to play more than anything because I grew up loving Batman, funny enough, is the Riddler. The Riddler is my favorite villain."
"The Riddler was like a sociopath," he added. "He was proper crazy. So if I'm gonna play crazy, I'm wanna play proper crazy."
"I'm ready," he said. "The Riddler. Gimme a call."
Movie people, make this happen!

Best of Summer: The Top 19 Songs We Had on Our Poolside Playlist

SUMMER ENTERTAINING


Robin Thicke, Blurred Lines Videovevo.com
Summer is quickly coming to an end (nooooo!), and although we're sad to see the days of laying out by the pool and heading out to the beach become just another memory until next year, we at least got some great music out of it.
Whether these tracks have been out for a while—years, for some—they made their mark this season and will forever remind us of the fun we had during the summer months of 2013.
So sit back, relax and find yourself singing along to these catchy tunes that made our list for the best songs of summer.
1. "Blurred Lines," Robin Thicke featuring Pharrell and T.I.: This track had it's share of controversy, but no one could deny it's appeal—both from the melody and the pretty faces in the video.
2. "Treasure," Bruno Mars: This retro R&B anthem was different than the other songs played on the radio, but quickly became a tune you found yourself singing along to. Plus, it's always nice when Bruno makes the ladies feel special.
3. "Get Lucky," Daft Punk featuring Pharrell: The collaboration between these two artists proved to be a successful one. At one point in time, there wasn't a radio station that wasn't playing this hit.
4. "Summertime Sadness (Remix)," Lana Del Rey: Although the track was released over a year ago, the Cedric Gervais remix of the hit revamped the popular song and became a must-have on a summer playlist.
5. "Wake Me Up," Avicii featuring Aloe Blacc: The EDM DJ's latest wasn't what we were used to hearing from him, but it's new (and almost country-like vibe) proved that two totally opposite genres can come together and make sweet music.
6. "Clarity," Zedd featuring Foxes: This track became one of those songs you always heard in the car and rushed to Shazam because it was so catchy.
7. "Suit & Tie," Justin Timberlake featuring Jay Z & "Holy Grail," Jay Z featuring Justin Timberlake: This one's a twofer deal! It was clear that J.T. and Hov became the Kings of Summer. With both artists releasing new music and being featured on each other's tracks this summer, we were graced with a lot of great music.
8. "Power Trip," J. Cole featuring Miguel: Wait, so you're saying rappers get emotional, too?! Between the melody and the lyrics, this romantic track was a definite summer favorite.
9. "Problems," A$AP Rocky featuring Drake, Kendrick Lamar and 2 Chainz: Warning: The above video is explicit. The main hook of this hip-hop track became the go-to line for any hashtag, Instagram caption or Facebook status. And even if you didn't know any of the words, you knew that one line during Kendrick Lamar's verse and that was enough.

10. "We Can't Stop," Miley Cyrus: Whether you do, in fact, enjoy dancing around with giant (and kinda creepy, let's be honest) teddy bears or not, Miley's latest became a quick hit and one of the most talked-about tracks of the summer.
11. "Come & Get It," Selena Gomez: Push play on this song and practice those sexy moves in front of the mirror, girl.
12. "I Need Your Love," Calvin Harris featuring Ellie Goulding: This was a match made in music heaven. Between the incredible beat and Goulding's hypnotizing voice, this track was everything.
13. "The Way," Ariana Grande featuring Mac Miller: Get it, girl! Ariana Grande is new in the music scene but didn't waste any time making a name for herself. Aside from being gorgeous, the 20-year-old has vocals that remind us of Mariah Carey (yeah, she's that good).

14. "Mirrors," Justin Timberlake: Yes, J.T. is on here again. What do you expect?! His return to music was a force to be reckoned with, and this track was just more proof of that.
15. "Best Song Ever," One Direction: Did you really think we'd go through this list without one of the biggest (and cutest) boy bands being added to it? Plus, this single won Best Song of Summer at the 2013 VMAs, so obvs it's included.
16. "Applause," Lady Gaga: She's back! The pop star returned with a new single near the end of summer that got all of her little monsters excited.
17. "Roar," Katy Perry: Along with Gaga, Perry came out strong near the end of the season with new music. And we like.
18. "Safe and Sound," Capital Cities: This was another Shazam-worthy hit. Many may have found themselves singing along to this track without ever really knowing who sings it. You're welcome.
19. "Hold On (We're Going Home)," Drake: Oh, Drizzy. Let's be real—Selena Gomez isn't the only one who thinks Drake is nice to look at, but when he trades his rap card in for singing a sweet melody, we just melt! Releasing just a few weeks ago, this track instantly became a fan-favorite.
