British pop star Leona Lewis already has a reputation for being a good girl, but now she says she’s not only a good girl … she’s a “good diva.” And she’s not going around spending unnecessary money unlike her celebrity counterparts.

“The term ‘diva’ has such a negative connotation, but I see myself as a kind of good diva. I’m a next-door diva,” she said in the latest issue of Petra magazine.

Leona says she doesn’t make crazy demands and insists that she’s very frugal, unlike most pop stars in the industry. And her biggest purchases so far have been her house and her two cost-efficient environmentally friendly whips.

“The biggest things I’ve bought are a house and my two cars. One of the cars is a Mini Cooper. But in Los Angeles I always drive a Hybrid Toyota Prius which is very environmentally friendly.”

Here are a few pics of the “good diva” with Adam Lambert, Monique Coleman, Angela Simmons, LL Cool J, LaToya Jackson and more on the red carpet of the US Weekly Hot Hollywood Event. The star-studded event was held Wednesday night (Nov 18) at Vouyer in Los Angeles. Continue reading for the rest of the pictures…

TV personalities Kim Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian posed for pics together on the Red Carpet at the 2009 Primetime Emmy Awards, held Sunday evening in Los Angeles at the Nokia Theater. Apparently their arrival as a duo was changed at the last minute due to a wardrobe malfunction Kim experienced prior to stepping out on the red carpet. She said didn’t get to make her “live hit” with sister Kourtney because of a problem with her zipper but was able to make it to the show on time and called it “an amazing experience.”

Writing on her official blog, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star admitted that a zipper on her white dress by Ina Soltani broke while she was en route to the ceremony.

“I had a major fashion emergency… My entire zipper ripped! It just popped!” she explained. “I freaked out and called my stylist Monica who was at the Emmys waiting for me with a needle and thread to sew up my entire dress! ”

Other celebs on the red carpet were Heidi Klum and her husband Seal, rapper LL Cool J, comedians Kathy Griffin and Tracy Morgan, singer/songwriter Justin Timberlake and more. NeNe Leakes from Bravo’s Real Housewives of Atlanta hosted E!’s fashion coverage for the red carpet and according to Necole Bitchie, she was personally invited by Ryan Seacrest to do this.

He supposedly flew her out to LA on a private jet and the whole nine. I guess Nene really is stunting on all the other housewives. Being loud, confrontational and stereotypical during every public appearance pays off. Who knew?

COMMON & T-PAIN GIVE EACH OTHER DAP ON THE RED CARPET AT THE 2008 BET HIP-HOP AWARDS

ATLANTA // SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18TH 2008 »
AIRDATE: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23RD 2008 ON BET @ 8 PM EST. The 2008 BET HIp-Hop Awards went down in Atlanta over the weekend, and here you can check out the photos from the red carpet. If you haven’t heard yet, Katt Williams was nixed from his hosting duties, and T-Pain filled in for the comedian at the last minute. BET made up some bogus story talking about how Katt bet T-Pain he couldn’t beat him in a break dance battle, and how Katt’s hosting duties were up for grabs to whoever won. It later came to light that Williams had been arrested on the morning of the show. Sound familiar, anyone? *Cough* T.I. *cough* got arrested *cough* last year *cough* and he was *cough* supposed to perform. I’m just saying…

Anyway, follow the break to check out photos of Ciara, T.I., Flo Rida, Rick Ross, and more all on the red carpet at the ‘08 BET HIp-Hop awards.

The 2008 Video Music Awards aired Sunday night and yours truly is here to bring you the 411 on all of the hottest (and not so hot) styles worn at the show! There were many hot styles worn to the show, but first and foremost, I gotta show some love to the men, because if you take out the select few that I will talk about later on in the post, just about every guy was dressed to impress! Some of the best dressed male celebs of the night were Ludacris, Ne-Yo, LL Cool J, T.I, John Legend, and Chris Brown. Ludacris looked like Mr. Urban High Fashion wearing Gucci from head to toe (tie included), Ne-Yo also looked good rocking Gucci from head to toe, LL Cool J lost the bedazzled tee’s and kept it simple yet classy in Gucci, John Legend really gave an edge to the classic white button up, black tie, and pants look by adding a fly white leather jacket, and Chris Brown decided not to wear his favorite red carpet designer and opted for a Louis Vuitton Jacket, Cassett Jeans, and Dior kicks. Keep reading for more styles from the show.
