Rapper T-Pain was the surprise star of the Country Music Television awards on Wednesday, thanks to this impressive display of bling — and a bizarre duet with Taylor Swift.

The country princess joined Pain onstage as her alter ego T-Swizzle and rapped along to Thug Story — a take on her hit Love Story

And it was Swift who stole the show by walking off with two awards, including Best Video for her single Love Story.

Jennifer Aniston is looking for love — and she’s not afraid to talk about it.

The Friends star showed off her flowing locks and a science-fiction inspired dress at a Women in Film party in Los Angeles over the weekend.

And she used her time onstage — she was honoured for her role as a woman in film – to raise a few laughs and scout for potential new suitors.

Aniston said, ”I’m trying to be more careful than I have been in the past about the titles of movies that I choose to be in. It’s funny – I kind of noticed something a couple years ago that there seemed to be this strange parallel to the movies I was doing and my life off screen.

“It started with, well, The Good Girl. Then that evolved into Rumour Has It, followed by Derailed, and then there was The Break-Up. And then on the lighter side was Friends with Money, which I felt was a bit on the nose.”

“So if any of you have a project titled Everlasting Love with an Adult, Stable Male… “

It’s great to see Law & Order: SVU Emmy-winner Mariska Hargitay back to health after battling a collapsed lung on and off for months; Hargitay — shown above at Wednesday night’s Gracie Awards in Manhattan — recently confessed that years of doing her own stunts on the crime drama were at least in part to blame for her health problems this year.

From the neck down, yeesh.  Black-and-white is really hot right now, but as hard as it is to make a woman with Hargitay’s nice figure look dumpy, that’s exactly what those ruffles do.  We’re going to have to book her on misdemeanor unflattering.

Twilight-throb Robert Pattinson showed off his golden popcorn (no, not a euphemism) last night at MTV’s Movie Awards, which saw Pattz pick up statuettes for Breakthrough Performance, Best Kiss (shared with Kristin Stewart), and Best Fight Scene (with an assist by Cam Gigandet).  Viewers saw the world premiere of the trailer for Twilight sequel New Moon.

The complete list of winners is here, but of course the big story this morning is Eminem’s huffy departure following a too-intimate moment with Sacha Baron Cohen’s buttocks.  (Here’s a better clip of the incident than the one we posted last night.  Still hard to tell if Eminem is in on the gag or not, although it doesn’t make sense that he wasn’t, for a variety of reasons.)
