There was even a performance by a Hologram of Michael Jackson. The awards were given out with Justin Timberlake taking multiple awards and Jennifer Lopez receiving the Icon Award.
Outside of award ceremonies Paul McCartney had to cancel his tour of Japan due to illness. Paul is expected to make a full recovery and back on his feet in days. Macklemore battled Anti-Semitism rumours after he dressed in a "Jewish" stereotype costume while Sum 41 singer Deryck Whibley was hospitalized after years of alcohol abuse took it's toll on his liver and kidneys. Lastly Tony Braxton believes God gave her son Autism because she had an abortion years ago.
The Beautiful People
Sometimes things work out beautifully like when Will Ferrell and his double, Red Hot Chilli Peppers drummer, Chad Smith battled in a "Drum-off" on the The Tonight Show. We even had Brad Pitt and Matthew McConaughey acting very neighbourly while in New Orleans with Brad tossing a beer to Matthew from his balcony. And finally because some celebrities aren't full of themselves an Australian journalist managed to create a short video of various celebrities wishing his bride to be luck for the wedding.
But sometimes it's not all fun and games. After last weeks video footage of Solange attacking Jay Z in an elevator, Beyonce and her sister Solange made up with a smiling photo on Instagram, however, there was no love lost when Charlie Sheen had a mini melt down going on a rampage when Rhianna declined to meet Charlie and his fiancee.
Child Protective Services have started an investigation on Will Smith's 13-year-old daughter, Willow, after a photo of her and 20-year-old man lying in bed together appeared online. In a shocking revelation Pamela Anderson has revealed that she was molested at age 6 and raped at 12.
