Chris Brown Top Dog at American Music Awards

Alicia Keys may have led the way with five American Music Awards nominations, but it was Chris Brown who stole the show Sunday night.

The singer scooped up three trophies, including male soul/R&B artists, male pop/rock artist and the big kahuna, artist of the year.

Keys converted album nods in pop/rock and soul/R&B into wins for her disc As I Am. Not to be outdone, Brown's gal pal Rihanna snatched two awards, female artist in both the pop/rock and soul/R&B categories.

Another double winner for the evening was Kanye West, who threw no temper tantrums this time around. Bitter last year at losing male rap/hip-hop artist, West took home the honor this year, but offered it up to Lil Wayne.

The rapper also won rap/hip-hop album for Graduation, and in typical West fashion, likened himself and his colleagues to the Beatles, declaring, "I want to be Elvis."

It was also a banner night for American Idol grads. Daughtry picked up its fourth AMA, this time in pop/rock band/group/duo, while Jordin Sparks was named adult contemporary artists and Carrie Underwood's Carnival Ride scored country album.

Underwood was stunned in the female country artist race by Taylor Swift, whose own ex-beau Joe Jonas and his bros won an AMA of their own for breakthrough artist.

Brad Paisley and Rascal Flatts rounded out the country champs.

One guaranteed winner of the night was Annie Lennox, who was given the Award of Merit by Justin Timberlake and performed a show-stopping number.

Other performers included Christina Aguilera, the Jonas Brothers, Mariah Carey, Rihanna, Beyonce, Alicia Keys and birthday girl Miley Cyrus.

Look Who Has a Crush on Carrie Underwood

When people talk about the love life of country superstar Carrie Underwood they usually mention her brief romance with Dallas Cowboys star quarterback Tony Romo and his girlfriend Jessica Simpson. Thankfully this latest report has nothing to do with the triangle, but it does appear that Carrie may have another famous fella looking to be a possible new suitor.

A report from Star has this, "If Carrie Underwood's budding romance with Travis Stork doesn't work out, there's another Bachelor who'd be happy to take his place - Andy Baldwin. Yes, another veteran of the ABC series might have eyes for Carrie.

The report notes that the reality show hunk and U.S. Navy lieutenant has had a crush on Carrie for ages, and cites a inside source for the information. The source adds, "But Travis got to her first." Recently, "Andy even dedicated a song to Carrie on the radio."

Will this be the latest triangle for Carrie Underwood? At least it would be sort Tony and Jessica and for many fans of the American idol winner that would be a welcome relief.

Dumped and dumping. Dumb teen celebs

I have no clue as to what happened for real between so-called ‘cheater Joe’ and ‘victim Taylor’.

In our previous post Not That Innocent Taylor said she was dumped by Joe, but here is what Joe got to say on his break up with .

On the ‘ official blog, Joe just posted the following:

“To Our Fans from Joe, Kevin and Nick:

It is our normal rule to avoid talking about our private lives. It seems that it has come to the point where we must address a few things. We would prefer to address these things and then leave it alone from that point forward.

We felt like it was important to respond because recent events have affected our fans. It is important to us as artists and brothers to enlighten regarding this situation. Our fans are the most important thing to us.

There are rumors and suggestions that are being publicized in the press right now about us. Like all people our age we are trying to find someone special that we can share time with in our busy lives. We all have busy schedules and high demands. We love our life and are thankful for all that we have. We are simply stating that it is difficult to maintain relationships with the kind of life we live.

We love our fans and it is important to us to protect that relationship.

To Our Fans from Joe:

This blog is not an attack of anyone. Anytime you are in a relationship for any length of time there are going to be issues. Sometimes they resolve. Other times they lead to a change of heart. This was the case recently.

Several things I will state with all my heart…
