011 People's Choice Awards Winners in TV

January 06, 2011 04:47:54 GMT

'House M.D.' and 'Glee' came at the top of the list as Favorite TV Drama and Comedy while Demi Lovato and 'Lie to Me' earned double nods.

---

FOX's shows "House M.D." and "Glee" prove that they appeal to fans after their victories at 2011 People's Choice Awards were announced. "House" not only won Favorite TV Drama but also helped Hugh Laurie and Lisa Edelstein to win the favorite TV Drama Actor and Actress while Favorite TV Comedy "Glee" delivered a win for Jane Lynch.

The event is a fan-voted awards show which was held at Nokia Theatre on January 5 in Los Angeles, California. Other winners which were announced early were Neil Patrick Harris (Favorite TV Comedy Actor) and Conan O'Brien (Favorite Talk Show Host). The latter said on his acceptance speech, "When you're up against Oprah Winfrey, you don't want to win. It makes Oprah very, very angry."

Laurie once again won for his take on Gregory House, winning Favorite TV Doctor which was actually dominated by the doctors from "Grey's Anatomy". Although the biggest nominee, "Grey's Anatomy" could only manage to steal Favorite Guest Star for Demi Lovato. For Lovato who is in rehab, this is a consolation night for her TV movie "Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam" also won.

Voted as Favorite TV Shows in Comedy and Drama are "$#*! My Dad Says" and "Hawaii Five-0" respectively. Homer Simpsons and his family walked away with a trophy as Favorite TV Family, beating The Griffins, The Harpers, The Pritchetts/Dunphys and The Scavos.

Meanwhile, "Lie to Me" surprisingly pocketed two nods, one for Favorite TV Crime Drama and the other for Favorite TV Crime Fighter (Tim Roth). This would be especially meaningful for the FOX show which was not given a back-nine order recently.

2011 People's Choice Awards also honors those in movie, music and other fields.

Keira Knightley Wanted, Jennifer Lopez Desperate to Join

Matthew Morrison said he would go for a Brit when it comes to a female guest star, revealing at the same time that Lopez has been pestering him for a recommendation.

---

Keira Knightley is welcome to a cameo role in "Glee" whenever she wants - the TV show's leading man Matthew Morrison has named the British actress as his dream guest star. The phenomenally successful musical series has attracted a slew of superstar guests, including Gwyneth Paltrow and Britney Spears.

And Morrison, who plays Glee club leader Will Schuester, is hoping British actress Knightley will be the next famous face to sign up, so he can fulfill his fantasy of kissing her onscreen. He tells Britain's Glamour magazine, "Oh God, I'm such a sucker for women with British accents. So many (potential guest stars) to choose from. Actually I'll go with a Brit because I really like this girl - Keira Knightley. She should guest star in Glee. (She should play) the part of the girl who gets kissed by Will Schuester."

In the same interview, Morrison revealed that Jennifer Lopez is so desperate to land a guest slot on "Glee", she pesters him at parties and asks him to recommend her to the show's creator Ryan Murphy. Hollywood A-listers are queueing up to appear on the U.S. TV hit, with Anne Hathaway and Javier Bardem both recently expressing their desire to be part of the series.

And Lopez is so determined to land a cameo role, she always targets lead star Morrison at celebrity parties and begs him to speak with his boss in a bid to win him round. He tells Britain's Glamour magazine, "J. Lo definitely wants to (appear on the show). She runs over to me at parties asking whether I've 'spoken to Ryan yet' because she'll 'do anything' to be on the show. She and her husband Marc Anthony are obsessed with 'Glee'."

Justin Bieber Wants 'Glee' Cameo for Himself and Cheryl Cole

January 06, 2011 09:16:27 GMT

The Canadian star is reportedly in talks to take part in the TV show but he will only appear if the British singer stars alongside him.

---

Justin Bieber is campaigning to land British singer Cheryl Cole a cameo spot as a sexy teacher on hit U.S. TV show "Glee". The "Baby" hitmaker is reportedly in talks to film his own guest role on the all-singing-all-dancing program, but he insists he'll only agree if producers sign up the Girls Aloud beauty to star alongside him.

He tells Britain's The Sun, "I am going to tell the producers that it must be in the agreement that Cheryl gets a part in the show as well. Cheryl and the show make total sense. It's all about people who look good and can sing and dance - that's totally Cheryl."

"I have told her every time I have seen her that as soon as she lands in the U.S. for 'The X Factor' I am going to work with her. Glee is a great way to introduce her to the States - everybody is watching it. She looks beautiful, but I am not sure she could quite get away with playing a student. It would be great if she played a substitute teacher taking a sabbatical from England or something. Can you imagine how hot Cheryl would look dressed as a school teacher?"

Bieber made his affections for the British star clear when he performed on Simon Cowell's "The X Factor" - on which Cole is a judge - last year.

A new tidbit about Justin Bieber's next studio installment is brought forward by none other than his own manager Scooter Braun. In an interview with MTV, the talent scouter revealed Drake and Kanye West are among his A-list featured guests.

"Yes, Justin is working on new music," the manager confirmed. "He's been talking to Drake about new music. [Bieber] and Kanye had a call today about a song they're trying to work on together. Kanye wants to produce a bunch of new songs for the new album."

Braun also named Chris Brown, stating that "Him and Chris Brown have been sending stuff back and forth to each other." Beside making music with the R&B and rap artists, Bieber is also working a country/pop crossover with Grammy-winning group Rascal Flatts.

The manager then played a clip of a new Bieber song to the publication, saying that it may come out on Valentine's Day, three days after his movie "Justin Bieber: Never Say Never" arrives in the U.S. theaters. It's not known whether the song is a solo or a duet though.

During the interview, MTV also took the advantage to ask Braun about the nature of Bieber and Selena Gomez's relationship. Brushing off the romance rumor, he said, "I know that him and the person you're asking about are really close friends and have been for awhile. As far as I know, that's what they are."

Braun stated further, "Everybody wants to know something. Here's what I'm going to tell you. This kid travels a lot and I always told him, I was always like, 'You shouldn't be in a relationship unless you can give someone everything'."

Back on his new music project, those working behind the production table with Bieber have also been revealed. In an interview with Rap-Up TV, Kevin Cossom spilled the beans that he, Danja and Bangladesh have been booked to help the Canadian singer make more mature sound with "edgy vibe."

Justin Bieber Spotted Kissing Selena Gomez During New Year Getaway

 
Shirtless Bieber is caught kissing bikini-clad Gomez on the cheek when they were vacationing to the Caribbean.

---

Justin Bieber was photographed kissing his rumored girlfriend Selena Gomez, for real this time. While the previous kissing picture was deemed fake, these new ones look more real, seeing Bieber landing his kiss on her right cheek. He was shirtless, while Gomez hid her bikini bod in a towel.

In some other pictures, 18-year-old Gomez who wore a blue bikini was seen hugging 16-year-old Bieber from behind. The two young stars reportedly boarded a private yacht for a New Year vacation to the Caribbean when the pictures were taken.

Over the weekend, Bieber re-tweeted a series of Happy New Year messages from his fans. Without mentioning his vacation with Gomez, he also posted on Twitter about how a gentleman should treat a girl. He wrote, "All girls should feel beautiful. a real man knows to treat a lady like a queen. ur happiness comes from theirs. step up fellas. #girlrespect."

Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber have repeatedly been caught going out together in December. The Disney star was pictured grabbing a bite with him at IHOP, visiting him on his tour bus, standing outside his hotel suit and taking a romantic stroll with him in Miami Beach. Never confirming that they are an item, Bieber once said Gomez is an "amazing person.
