Backstage with Cody Simpson and Greyson Chance!

Hey guys! On Wednesday, we were lucky enough to attend Cody Simpson and Greyson Chance's Waiting 4 U tour at the Gramercy Theatre in NYC! Each guy played a set of his top songs—and let me tell you, the amount of talent on that stage was unreal! Greyson's voice booms throughout the entire theater as he bangs away on the piano and Cody really knows how to work a crowd (plus, he has some sweet dance moves!).

Popstar! got to hang out with the guys right before the show, and they shared tons of juicy tidbits from life on the road!

"I love performing 'Not Just You,'" Cody tells us. "It's a love song, a ballad, that's going to be on my album. I actually bring a girl up on stage for the song and serenade her, so that's always a fun one. Everyone goes crazy for that!"

Greyson couldn't wait to perform his cover of "Empire State of Mind" in the Big Apple! "New York, baby! How can you beat it? We're in New York! And I'm so excited for New York because I do my 'Empire State of Mind' cover," he says.

Greyson's full interview!

Ashlee Keating Belts the National Anthem!

Ashlee Keating, who is not only supertalented but such a sweetheart, recently sang the National Anthem and "God Bless America" at an L.A. Dodgers game! Dodger Stadium holds 56,000 people, so Ashlee had a gigantic audience! As always, Ashlee sounds absolutely amazing—she tackles the ultra-difficult "Star-Spangled Banner" like a pro (something even Christina Aguilera couldn't manage; she forgot the lyrics at the Super Bowl)!

Watch our exclusive video of Ashlee's performance here!

Debby Ryan and Ariana Grande Share Beauty Tips!


 

Debby Ryan and Ariana Grande always look totally gorgeous, so when we recently met up with them at a special breakfast we had to find out their secrets—and relay them to you, of course!

Debby Ryan says the key to keeping her locks long and luscious is, surprisingly, washing her hair less! She also shares her current favorite hair trends and go-to dos!


Ariana Grande's eyes are so big and beautiful! The key to always making your eyes pop, Ariana tells us, is to have a great base. Make sure your face is clean and primed before you apply any makeup! Also, it's good to get into good face-washing habits now to prevent wrinkles when you get older :).


Do you have a beauty tip to share??

Joe's New Album is Music to Our Ears!

Joe tells us all about his solo album!

Popstar! was invited to a very special preview of Joe Jonas' upcoming solo album! Joe played three of his new songs for us and chatted about the inspiration behind the music—he knows there's going to be tons of speculation regarding which famous ex-gfs he wrote the songs about!

Joe also told us about a special guest he always has with him in the recording studio for "inspiration." (Here's a hint...it's not a girl!) Unfortunately, this "guest" got sick on the day Chris Brown joined Joe in the studio! Watch our video below for all the juicy deets:

Think of all the problems in the world, in your city, or in the world: pollution, homeless, violence. Jennette McCurdy is urging you to do something about it. One person can make a difference in the world. Why not now? The Nashville recording artist is reminding us to make positive actions in the future by imaging tomorrow's future today.

As a generation, she believes we can make a difference and wants us to understand the feeling of well-being that comes from adopting kindness and treating others with respect. 
Against the horizon, McCurdy sings above the city about issues present in today's society as well as the future. Young people also walk the streets carrying symbols of love in their hand, stating what they're doing to make a difference in the world. For example, boys and girls hold up signs saying "I feed the hungry," or "I read to the blind." At the end of the video, the teenagers give heart balloons to people throughout the city, and together unleash them to the sky. 
The 18-year-old actress and country pop star, better known as "Sam Puckett" is urging us to contribute to the greater good by solving the world's problems one step at a time. Check out the video below.

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez have found the secret to keeping their relationship working. It isn't magic. It is good old fashioned hard work. 

In an interview with Viva magazine, Gomez explains what keeps her and Justin together and how they make time for each other in spite of their busy work schedules.

“It’s very complicated, but you have to try [as hard as you can], and sometimes, there’s nothing left to do but make time.”

It's so sweet that Gomez and Bieber and trying so hard to keep their relationship going strong. It would be easy to get lazy considering how busy they both are. They must truly be in love to be working this hard. 

Gomez also revealed that she and Bieber are planning on taking a vacation together this summer. 

When and where they will be going exactly was not revealed, which is probably a good thing. 

A summer vacation is exactly what these two love birds need in order to recharge their batteries.

Dancing With the Stars Recap: Ralph Rules, Team Chelsea Battles Team Hines!
Ralph Macchio is back, baby.
An early favorite, the original Karate Kid joined NFL star Hines Ward at the top of the scoreboard on Monday night's episode of Dancing With the Stars.
With Donnie Burns on as a guest judge/coach, the scores were out of 40 this week instead of 30. Ralph and Hines each managed an impressive 36!
Also, Monday marked the return of team dances, which counted for another potential 40 points, though each team earned 30/40, so it was a wash.
fun wash. Watch Team Chelsea (Chelsea Kane, Macchio and Romeo) take on Team Hines (Ward, Kirstie Alley and Kendra Wilkinson) below!
We'll post some of the best individual routines and analysis for you in a bit. For now here are Monday's scores, with the field wide open as always ...
  • Hines Ward & Kym Johnson (Tango): 9, 9, 8, 10 = 36.
  • Ralph Macchio & Karina Smirnoff (Quickstep):  10, 9, 8, 9 = 36.
  • Chelsea Kane & Mark Ballas (Paso Doble): 8, 9, 8, 9 = 34.
  • Kendra Wilkinson & Louis van Amstel (Tango): 8, 8, 7, 8 = 31.
  • Kirstie Alley & Maksim Chmerkovskiy (Jive): 9, 7, 6, 8 = 30.
  • Romeo & Chelsie Hightower (Samba): 7, 8, 7, 8 = 30.
As we said above, everybody earned 30 for their team dance, so that changed nothing as far as the scores are concerned. So who's at risk tonight?

Daily Drool Faceoff: Ian Somerhalder vs. Chace Crawford

Maybe I need to go into politics. From the looks of the guest list at the White House Correspondent’s dinner, Capitol Hill seems to be where the hotties are. Which dapper dude gets your vote for the sexiest of the night: Chace Crawford or Ian Somerhalder?


Hot Mess: Dianna Agron




We Manhattanites are known for our unique style, but Dianna Agron, in the big apple filmingGlee, missed the memo that your couture outfit can be unusual as long as it’s still flattering. How else can we explain this Gucci…contraption that she wore to the Mary J. Blige Honors concert in NYC. One part ’80s pantsuit, one part tribal bondage outfit, this look may be high end, but it’s low-balling Dianna’s foxy figure. Should Di stick to the classic glam we know and love?

Jordin Sparks’ Twitter TMI

A word of advice to over-sharing celebs: If you’re going to flaunt your bikini-ready body on Twitter, at least be honest about it. Don’t follow in the footsteps of Jordin Sparks, who clearly posted this photo to show off her newly svelte body, but used the lame excuse that her bikini reminded
her of cereal. Jordin, there’s no need to be coy when you’re looking and feeling fierce. Right darlings?
