It's not uncommon for stars to sport animal skins of some sort at red carpet events like the Golden Globes, but typically that's in the form of mink furs or alligator clutches. Julianne Hough took that concept and idea to a whole other level at Sunday's (Jan. 13) event, sporting earrings made out of real beetles and stick bugs.
Taylor Swift attended the 2013 Golden Globes on Sunday night (Jan. 13) as a nominee for Best Original Song for 'Safe & Sound,' her tune with the Civil Wars that appeared in the blockbuster flick 'The Hunger Games.'

Never, ever underestimate the power of social media.

We already know Luke Bryan is a lot like his ACMs co-host, the hilarious Blake Shelton, in their off-the-cuff senses of humor. Well, looks like Bryan is similar to Shelton, who, along with wife Miranda Lambert, was selected most desirable celebrity neighbor, in his good neighbor-ness. Bryan was boating on the Harpeth River in Franklin, Tenn. on Thursday, Jan. 11 when he saw a horse had fallen into the river. He immediately contacted rescuers and was critical in helping to save the horse's life!

Keith Urban and the other men of 'American Idol' -- that'd be host Ryan Seacrest and co-judge Randy Jackson -- appeared on 'The Tonight Show With Jay Leno' to promote next week's 'American Idol' Season 12 premiere. Leave it to Leno to capitalize on awkward and embarrassing moments, like Urban's naked photos and the show's two dueling divas.
Miranda Lambert is one tough chick. She is the fastest girl in town, if you will. She doesn't strike anyone as insecure, since she oozes beauty, talent and confidence -- and she's also married to one of the most popular male performers in the country genre, Blake Shelton. Despite all of her blessings, however, in the February issue of Redbook the singer admits she can be unsure of herself here and there. In essence, she's human, just like the rest of us.
