Carrie Underwood - Tony Romo Isn't hide relationship anymore

Carrie Underwood and footballer Tony Romo showed up together at this year Academy of Country Music Awards on Tuesday May 15th.

Carrie Underwood isn't hiding her relationship with football player Tony Romo anymore. When asked about her date to the award show, Underwood smiled and said,

"We're really good friends and we hang out and we support each other and everything that we do and it's great to have somebody here who's got your back."

And naturally Romo had nothing but great things to say about his woman.

"We're just getting to know each other a little better and we'll see where everything goes, but it's just nice to have somebody at the end of the day to talk to who is going through similar things.
"She's got a great personality, so she's really easy to talk to... (and) she loves to talk on the phone."

Speculation on Underwood and Romo's romance first sparked in December 2006 when she attended the Cowboys play the Eagles, during which he was spotted hugging her before the game. They were all over the news again when the singer was spotted on hand celebrating his 27th birthday in April.

Meanwhile, at the Country Music Awards last night, Carrie Underwood took home album of the year, top female vocalist and best video honors. Other winners on the night included Kenny Chesney, who took entertainer of the year for the third year in a row and said “it never gets old.” Also, 17-year old Taylor Swift earned buzz with her performance of her hit “Tim McGraw.”

After Fergie who's net to support Snoop Dogg?

Fergie showed her support for Snoop Dogg at the 2007 MTV Australia Video Music Awards press conference. Snoop was denied entry into the country after pleading no contest to gun and drug charges in the U.S. this month. He was scheduled to co-host the awards on April 29. MTV is appealing on his behalf.

OFFICIALLY Snoop Dogg isn't welcome in Australia, but his superstar friends were nevertheless happy to support the controversial American hip-hop artist yesterday.

After Snoop was refused a visa to attend tonight's MTV Australia Video Music Awards, singer Fergie wore her loyalty on her chest, donning a t-shirt bearing a slogan that read: "I Love Snoop".

And Sophie Monk, the expat Aussie actor and singer who will co-host an upcoming MTV show with the rapper, said that she was yet to speak to her controversial mate.

"It is a bummer he couldn't make it ... but he will be back, I'm sure," said Monk, who is engaged to rock band Good Charlotte's Benji Madden.

Snoop Dogg was forced to cancel his trip at the last minute after being denied a visa.

"Thank you so much for fighting the fight and trying to get me to the show," Snoop Dogg wrote in an email to organisers yesterday. Have a great show this weekend. Please let all my fans know how disappointed I am."

Jennifer Lopez win the Style Icon of the Year Award from US Weekly Magazine

Jennifer Lopez win the “Style Icon of the Year”Award from US Weekly Magazine. Her look is regal and elegant, but she definitely ups the glam factor with dramatic beauty and jewelry. She also knows how to dress urban and sophisticated so fans can identify with her! However, I don't know if a menswear approach was the best choice for this extravaganza. A fun party dress would have been my choice.
