Here's what the folks were up to who weren't invited to the AMAs, or just didn't care about them: Barry Bonds was spotted kickin' it courtside with is wife and daughter at the Lakers game this weekend. Cute. Malinda Williams and Russell Simmons hit up the 2nd Annual Sunflower Children Poker Fundraiser at Gotham Hall in NY this weekend. Earvin "Magic"Johnson signed copies of his book 32 Ways to be a Champion in Business at Hue-Man bookstore. More ish thisaway...

Rihanna took to the American Music Awards stage to perform her new single "Rehab": That bedazzled eye patch was killing me.  The gimmicks must stop for everyone in the industry.  Gloves, shades, chains, now Mama Tina's special creole creations eyepatch?  No ma'am.  The performance was blah per usual but Rih also looked fabulous per usual.  I'm sure that makes up for the lack of skills to some people. Elvis Kanye performed "Heartless" on the AMA stage.  That animal hanging out his back pocket kept distracting me.  Cool performance though. And Alicia Keys performed "Superwoman" bringing out surprises like Queen Latifah to rap and sing on the track as well as Opera extraordinaire Kathleen Battle.  I loved it. More pics and videos of the performance when you read the rest...

I'm still bitter I put off watching the "True Blood" season finale for this Awards show. But whatev. Beyonce performed her usual routine for "Single Ladies": I would have been more enthused had she brought out the tanginess that is that Youtube dude in the swimsuit working this routine out extra hard. She looked fab nonetheless. Ne-Yo performed a couple songs: And so did the Pussycat Dolls: I'm not even a huge PCD fan or anything but these chicks worked it the hell out on stage. And Mariah received the Special Achievement Award for recently breaking pretty much every record held by Elvis and being the highest selling artist of all time PERIOD. Nice. More pics and video of the performances when you read the rest...

The blonde and pop tenny boppers didn't completely takeover tonight's American Music Awards.  Just most of it.  But the YBF folks were in full effect.  Rihanna was a big winner taking home multiple awards so far and looking all kinds of fabulous while doing so.  Chick is beating out Alicia and Mariah for her awards.  Interesting... All the YBF celebs on the red carpet when you read the rest...

Celebs hit up the CNN Heroes event last night at Hollywood's Kodak Theater: John Legend looked pretty dapper until I scrolled down to those boots.  It just doesn't flow for me. Terrence Howard was there with a fresh fade. Hill Harper made an appearance too. And Holly Robinson-Peete and hubby were there too. More ish when you read the rest...

More pics added below... Beyonce is risking her life on the set of her latest music video--ok we're being dramatic--for "Diva". She was spotted shooting on location in downtown Los Angeles: In this scene, the YBF chick strutted like a diva, lit a cigar, and threw the lighter onto a car that exploded just 20ft away from her. B was rocking some gold tasseled sunglasses, a leather biker jacket, tight denim jeans and black stiletto boots. I guess she doesn't want Kanye to be the only one with signature shades. Work it out then Sasha F. More pics when you read the rest...

Christina Milian looked cute as usual at the Lucky Strikes Lanes and Lounges LA Live opening last night: She pulls off the grungy but cute look quite well. And LL brought his family to a Cirque Du Soleil show last night:
