Carrie Underwood Adds Song & Sizzle to American Idol finale

Carrie Underwood sizzled in a short sequined dress on the American Idol red carpet for their 2011 season finale in the City of Angels on May 25th, 2011, in the Nokia Theater

The singer wore her blond tresses in an updo, showing off a peaches-and-cream complexion and statement earrings which matched her outfit.

Makeup was kept to soft pinks and browns, going with the easy flow of the dress. The Idol alum chose a sequined Lorena Sarbu which flaunted seriously good taste and a tanned pair of stems.

We think she's secretly trying to compete with Kate Middleton, but we're not complaining. :)

And how to accessorize the uber-short number? With a brown clutch bag, glittery platform heels, and her signature smile.

Carrie performed her megahit "Before He Cheats" with contestant Lauren Alaina. She sported a shoulder-baring sequin top in silver which matched a pair of shoulder-duster earrings. White short shorts and high heels made for a perfect look.

If these two outfits are anything to go by, we're in for a hot summer

Halle Berry Tribal Tease at FiFi Awards

The 44-year-old hot mama rocked the super sexy tribal wear inspired number from Halston's Spring 2011 collection.

Halle let her dress and her tanned and toned figure draw focus with minimal accessories and makeup.

She paired her dress with gold tiered hoop earrings, a black chunky ring on her left hand middle finger, black slim strap heels, and a black clutch.

Her hair was styled in loose curls while her skin looked radiant under light makeup. She wore cat eyeliner, eyelash extensions with layers of mascara and nude matte lipgloss.

Angelina Jolie Ravishes in Red at Tree Of Life LA Premiere

Angelina Jolie looked stunning in a red Jenny Packham one shoulder gown at the LA premiere of Pitt's The Tree Of Life at Bing Theatre at Los Angeles County Museum of Art Tuesday, May 24.

Jolie was accompanied to the event by partner Brad Pitt who has gone back to his clean shaven, a transition that triggered a flash bulb frenzy.

Jolie, 35, surprised fans by stepping away from her signature black color in favor of bright red, a color we don't recall her wearing in the recent past.

The loose silhouette silk chiffon draped gown had ruffle detail on bodice and was cinched at the waist with a velvet waistband.

She accessorized with nude Stuart Weitzman peeptoe heels and Tiffany & Co. jewels: stud earrings and a gold ring on her right hand middle finger.

Her wavy brunette hair, styled in loose waves and side parting, draped her left shoulder. The glow of her skin was accentuated by the bright red color of her gown. She wore red lip gloss and light eye makeup.

Pitt's decision to get rid of his goatee will likely be welcomed by most of his fans. The 47-year-old looked smashing and youthful in a Tom Ford black suit, white unbuttoned dress shirt sans tie, and aviators. His nape sweeping hair was colored a shade darker than we saw on Sunday and was styled slicked down with a middle parting.

Jolie skipped the New York premiere of her film Kung Fu Panda 2 to be with Pitt at the LA event.

Earlier, the couple had walked the red carpet at the LA premiere of Jolie's film on Sunday, May 22; their brood of six children had accompanied them to the event.

Pitt's co-star Sean Penn was a no show on Tuesday, but co-star Jessica Chastain attended the screening.

Others attending the event included British director Guy Richie with his pregnant girlfriend Jacqui Ainsley, Garrett Hedlund and Carla Ortiz.

Selena Gomez Devastatingly Gorgeous at 2011 Billboard Music Awards

Sunday, May 23rd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas the stars gleamed their brightest, showcasing plenty of red carpet style and a lot of skin. One of those stars just happened to be Selena Gomez, who was there with current beau Justin Bieber.

La Selena kicked off the season with a low-necked number by Dolce & Gabbana in black. The dress sported V-shaped cutouts in the side and a slit-to-there hemline, with not an inch of cellulite in sight.

She paired it with red peeptoe bow heels by Guiseppe Zanotti, jewelry from Nail Lane, and a black clutch bag courtesy Judith Leiber.

Her long hair was worn casually, with a middle parting and makeup was in soft pastels which flattered her face quite well.

The night was not uneventful for the Gomester, 18, who received major PDA from her date Justin Bieber just after he won for Top New Artist.

There's no denying this Disney star has impeccable taste in threads, just as there's no denying she and Bieber rock as a pair.

Taylor Swift Sizzles in Saab at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards

Taylor Swift made our night sizzle in a strapless gown by Elie Saab at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on May 23, 2011.

She followed the trend of less-is-more, opting for a simple pair of statement earrings and long hair worn down in waves.

One thing she didn't skip, her signature red mouth which went well with the pale color of her dress.

The 21-year-old songstress won the first award of the evening, 200 Album Artist of the Year for album Speak Now, followed up by another one for Country Artist of the Year.

Looks like the blond star knows what she is doing, fashionably and professionally speaking.

She accessorized with a glittering silver box clutch and exquisite Chopard jewels - diamond chandelier earrings and two rings both featuring emerald-cut diamonds.

Her hair was styled in a sleek pulled back top and a high ponytail. A structured bend on the ponytail turned the ordinary style into something extra ordinary.

The previous evening, at the Chopard's 'Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend' bash, Bar rocked another Roberto Cavalli creation - a navy blue, sequined, tube mini-dress.

She shared her excitement of being in Cannes with her Twitter fans:

"Cannes :) so peaceful here! Beautiful and chill. Gonna work now though.. And Later the premier of Jodie Fosters new film"
