Teen Choice Awards - Who Won Big

For anyone paying attention to today’s pop culture scene, it was easy to predict who would win big at this year’s Teen Choice Awards.

The show, hosted by The Big Bang Theory’s Kaley Cuoco, highlights the year's biggest achievements in entertainment while putting a spin on the typical awards show archetype. The winners are voted on by teenagers who cast their votes online, and the categories stem from the typical favorites and have come to include Choice Tweeter (Justin Beiber), choice vampire (Robert Pattinson), choice web star (Rebecca Black) and other zany categories.

Spotted: Taylor Swift in NYC

Taylor Swift is in town! The "Love Story" singer was seen shopping around the city this week, trying to get in as much down time as possible.

The country cutie sure knows how to dress in this absolutely ghastly weather! The humidity ain't got nothing on the fashionistas of Manhattan. She flawlessly graced the concrete jungle with two cute dresses in separate occasions: first she was seen wearing a blue dress paired with pink heels and the other a pink ensemble, accesorized with green peep-toes.

Hopefully, if some New Yorkers are willing to brave the heat, perhaps you could run into Taylor at your favorite store!

Don’t Fear The Curling Iron

Curls and waves are sexier than ever this year! Not only do they give your hair the volume it craves, they also frame the face perfectly.

It’s common to believe that curling your hair can take hours. It definitely can. But does it have to? Absolutely not. It all depends on the size of your curling iron and what kind of curls you're looking for. Whether you're going for a full head of spirals, slightly flowing waves, volume infused-looking hair, or a quick fix to flat hair, your curling iron can make a world of a difference in just minutes! Anywhere from a 1” to 2” curling iron will work depending on the length and thickness of your hair.

CD Review: Kanye West, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

There are so many conflicting public and private personas that culminate in the egotistical, frustrating and yet undeniably creative and brilliant man that is Kanye West. After all, West consistently invites criticism and speculation with each successive exasperating public stunt and diatribe. He may be an exhausting media fixture, but West has never shied away from confronting his own demons. It's this unnerving introspection that makes Kanye West's music electric, enjoyable and undeniably important.

With My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, the superstar has returned with an album that speaks not only to tabloid sensation Kanye, he of the Taylor Swift debacle, the Amber Rose over-sharing, the Twitter rants and media posteuring, but also to the private emotional depths of a man at a crossroads in his life. The album blends the dark, haunted self-analysis of 808s and Heartbreak with the slick, hip-hop-faithful production techniques of The College Dropout and inspired samples of Late Registration; it's the climax of everything West has been working up to until this point.

Jake and Taylor Have Something To Be Thankful For

Jake and Taylor are for sure are the newest hot couple!

First the singer and the actor were seen sharing maple lattes together in Brooklyn, then two days later on Thanksgiving the two were sharing dinner together in Swift’s hometown of Nashville. Moving on to the Saturday after Thanksgiving, Swift and Gyllenhaal were spotted at a coffee house together near Vanderbilt University. What’s next? Christmas in Hawaii?

A source at the coffee shop, Elaina Mishu, tells PEOPLE, "They were smiling and laughing. They were talking a lot and enjoying each other's company...They didn't look like [just] friends."

Kanye, Oh Kanye...

Kanye West performed songs from his new album My Beautiful Dark And Twisted Fantasy during a live performance Wednesday morning at New York City's Bowery Ballroom.

Sounds good and clean, right?

Wrong.

Kanye could not let a performance go without spilling his true feelings. He bad-mouthed Swift for “milking” what had happened to her at the VMAs, instead of “defending” West. “Taylor never came to my defense at any interview…and rode the waves, and rode it and rode it.”
