Sorry, teenage guys: No Vanessa Hudgens naked or Ashley Tisdale nude pics here.

But we do have shots of the young stars backstage at the 2007 American Music Awards last night.

In the press room, these two joined fellow High School Musical alums Ryne Sanborn, Kaycee Stroh, and Monique Coleman to pose with their award for Favorite Soundtrack Album.

The celebrity news writers at Us Weekly have the scoop on Nicole Richie's Wizard of Oz-themed baby shower at the Beverly Hills Hotel Sunday.

The shower was hosted by her mother, Brenda, Nicole's sister, Sophia, and two of her long time friends, Paris Hilton and Masha Gordon.

Nicole Richie, 26 â€" who is due in January â€" arrived in a blue-trimmed white dress. She was greeted by life-size replicas of Oz characters â€" Dorothy, the Tinman, the lion, the scarecrow and the Wicked Witch of the West.

"The shower was really cute," Paris Hilton said. "We had a Wizard of Oz cake."

Joel Madden and Nicole Richie: Parents-to-be.

Party planner Mindy Weiss threw the bash. The 90 guests â€" including Lauren Conrad, celebrity DJ Samantha Ronson and Aussie singer Sophie Monk (Joel's twin brother Benji Madden's fiancée) â€" ate "little burgers and pasta," Hilton added.

"The shower was great," Lauren Conrad said. "It was really cute."

It was the first of five baby showers Nicole Richie plans to hold. Which is absurd. But here's something really cool they're doing. Instead of gifts, Richie and Joel Madden have asked pals to give cribs, strollers and stuffed animals to the new Richie Madden Children's Foundation, which supports mothers in need.

Okay... calm down, dudes. She's got underwear on. It's not like you are gonna see Hayden Panettiere nude below, so just keep your pants on, alright?

Nevertheless, there's no denying that the barely legal Heroes star has officially become the latest member of the crotch shot club - Hollywood Gossip style!

Seen here coming to last week's Victoria Secret Fashion show, Hayden Panettiere was trying her best not to join the illustrious crew headed by Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton. But the celebrity photo agencies won out.

We never thought we would see this day at The Hollywood Gossip, but with this Hayden Panettiere upskirt pic, the 18-year-old star has joined an infamous club.

Hayden (who clearly tried to avoid this photo opportunity, unlike some other slutty celebrities we know) was a good sport about it, though, smiling and waving in denial. Somewhere, Lindsay Lohan is smiling. And all kids of coked up.

This hot piece of celebrity gossip has been bandied about before in recent weeks, but we're just coming across it - Britney Spears apparently thinks her mother, Lynne Spears, may be sleeping with Kevin Federline.

Earlier this fall, it was reported that Britney Spears suspected her mother of sleeping with her ex-husband. Now the rumors are being rehashed.

A friend of the younger Spears tells Star Magazine: "In a fit of rage, Britney accused her mom of sleeping with Kevin!"

"Britney doesn't know up from down right now. She's so confused and angry, she told [Lynne Spears] that she was backstabbing, that she was probably sleeping with Kevin Federline just to hurt her feelings. Lynne is deeply hurt that her own daughter would viciously accuse her of something so terrible."

Britney Spears and Lynne Spears have a very normal relationship.

Many of Britney Spears' friends (possibly Alli Sims, Sam Lutfi, Lucy Walsh), feel that these accusations further prove her mental instability of late.

We love reporting celebrity wedding news. Former ER star Julianna Margulies married lawyer Keith Lieberthal in Lenox, Massachusetts, November 10.

Julianna Margulies, 41, who is expecting a baby in January, donned a white Narciso Rodriguez gown. Keith Lieberthal wore a black Armani suit. Hot.

The actress' father, Peter Margulies, walked her down the aisle.

Julianna Margulies & Keith Lieberthal: Wedded bliss.

Julianna Margulies and Keith Lieberthal quietly got engaged in June of this year, according to TV Guide. Like Grey's Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo and Chris Ivery, they chose not to make it a big thing. Which we can totally respect.

Instead of going on a honeymoon, the newlyweds returned to California, where Julianna Margulies is currently shooting the Fox legal drama Canterbury's Law. Sometimes your career has to come first, after all.

In Paris, France, embattled rapper Kanye West broke down in tears during his first concert since his mother, Donda West, died earlier this month at age 58.

Kanye West had begun to perform his track "Hey Mama" â€" which he wrote about Donda West, who passed away November 10 after apparent complications from plastic surgery â€" at Le Zénith in Paris Saturday, but he could not continue.

After being comforted by his band, West, 30, paused quickly and then left the stage. He later returned to perform "Stronger," MTV UK reports.

Entertainment Tonight reports that Kanye West's fiancée, Alexis Phifer, and her son were at the show. Check out the footage of Kanye in concert below.

The beautiful Blake Lively of Gossip Girl fame looks simply heavenly in a yellow gown at the Seventh on Sale dinner gala in New York City Thursday.

Seventh on Sale is the world's largest sample sale, in which dozens of big-name fashion brands have donated thousands of items to be sold through December 7, and 100 percent of the money raised in the process goes to services and housing for those living with HIV and AIDS. It's nice to see Blake Lively support a good cause.

And looking wonderful. See below.

Blake Lively and her Gossip Girl mates are on hiatus this week due to the holiday, but return with an all-new episode Wednesday, November 28.

The surly Simon Cowell may not have been personally on hand at L.A.'s Nokia theater Sunday night, but the American Idol judge would have been proud of a pair of his proteges at the 35th Annual American Music Awards.

Straight off her three wins at the Country Music Association Awards earlier this month, Carrie Underwood picked up three more trophies last night.

"This is one heck of a night," she gushed, looking genuinely happy (and not to mention gorgeous) accepting the award for favorite country album.

She also won favorite country female artist and an audience text-in award for favorite artist. And, ever the Southern belle, Carrie Underwood was overheard saying "holy cow" as her name was read for the second time.

Chris Daughtry, another nominated American Idol, joined his eponymous band, Daughtry, at the podium three times as it won favorite pop-rock album for Daughtry, as well as breakthrough artist and adult contemporary artist.

"Wow. I can't believe we're in the category with Justin Timberlake and Linkin Park. It's pretty awesome," Chris Daughtry said.

Carrie Underwood: A big winner once again. 

Some of night's other winners included Akon (soul/R&B male), Rihanna (soul/R&B female), and Justin Timberlake (pop/rock male and soul/R&B album), who accepted his awards via satellite from Australia, where he is on tour.

While host Jimmy Kimmel's dancing and ad-libbing left a lot to be desired, the performance by Chris Brown and his dancers to "Kiss Kiss" - a literal high-wire act with hip-hop versions of Tron-style suits - left many speechless.

Likewise, Beyonce (another winner on the evening) and Sugarland's countrified version of her smash hit "Irreplaceable" had the crowd on its feet.

On a serious and sad note, Usher, Kid Rock and Rihanna took time to send their condolences Kanye West, who is grieving over the loss of his mother, Donda West, whose funeral is set for Tuesday in Oklahoma City.

It's been so long since we had a good James Rousseau sighting. But it looks like the model and his thin, but happy girlfriend haven't skipped a romantic beat.

Kate Bosworth sticks close to her beau after a dinner at downtown New York hot spot The Waverly Inn Thursday night. Earlier in the week, the Boz and James Rousseau stepped out together for a night of fun and romance in London.

Ah, to be young, beautiful and possibly anorexic in love. Some pics ...
