Jordin Sparks stood up for virgins everywhere when the outspoken American Idol 6 winner blasted host Russell Brand for poking fun at the Jonas Brothers’ promise rings during last night’s 2008 MTV Video Music Awards.

“I just have one thing to say about promise rings,” Jordin retorted as she took the stage to present an award at Sunday night’s ceremony. “It’s not bad to wear a promise ring, because not everybody, guy or girl, wants to be a slut.”

Russell later apologized, if only half-heartedly:

“I didn’t meant to take it lightly,” he said of promise rings. “I don’t want to piss off teenage fans,” he said before adding, “Promise rings, I’m well up for it. [But] a bit of sex, it never hurt anybody.”

Despite being spotted chuckling from a table in the front row, Rihanna is sticking up Britney Spears following a storm of media criticism over her performance at the MTV Video Music Awards earlier this month.

Rihanna said: “You can’t judge her performance without knowing what was going on with her personally. She had so much pressure for that one performance.

“I’m telling you, it’s not easy being on that stage. I performed for a minute and a half, and I was extremely nervous.

“To have the amount of pressure that Britney had? I don’t know what I would’ve done. She did her best, so leave her alone.”

Britney Spears popped anti-depressant drugs minutes prior to her lacklustre performance at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, according to The Sun. A doctor was dispatched to the Palms Casino resort and pounded the star with massive quantities of prescription drugs.

“Britney took enough to floor an elephant. They calmed her down, but were clearly too effective. The scene in the dressing room before the show was one of absolute blind panic,” says a star insider.

“She knew she hadn’t rehearsed enough and was going to mess up the whole show and possibly her career – then she saw her hairdo and it was the final straw. “She went into a wild rage and started lashing out at everyone – including her stylist.”

Paris has spent the week gushing over her crush on 50: “He’s so cool. He’s really funny and he’s so cute too, and I love his music. I think he would be the best boyfriend a girl could wish for!”

Vegas Confidential tattles claim Britney Spears’ glamour-less locks at the 2007 MTV VMAs can be credited to Jessica Simpson. The star was forced to wear locks from Jess’ Hair-u-Wear line after celebrity hair maven Ken Paves decided not to style her hair for the performance.

Insiders say:

Britney Spears’ backstage drama Sunday at the MTV Video Music Awards included her insistence that she wanted to have brown hair.

But she was overruled by her management team and she wore extensions from Jessica Simpson’s Hair-u-Wear line……She wore extensions from Jessica Simpson’s Hair-u-Wear line….

Backstage spies say Spears pitched a fit. She had arranged for her own hair stylist to make the trip for $10,000 and “she wanted to go brown, but her people said ‘no way,’” said a backstage source.

Britney Spears MTV Video Music Awards: ‘I Looked Like A Fat Pig!’

Britney Spears described herself as a ‘fat pig’ after bolting off-stage at Sunday night’s MTV Video Music Awards.

Britney Spears Cocaine Use Before MTV VMA 2007 Performance

Castina — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 03:28:57 +0000

Celebrity tattles are dishing that Britney Spears enjoyed a cocaine binge that left her high during her low-energy performance at the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night.

According to celebrity mole Jonathan Jaxson:

“I have been in touch with someone very close to the Spears camp who has revealed to me the allegations she claims to be true.

Prior to Spears departing to the VMA’s she began drinking and doing drugs. Yes, drugs. Not a pill, but cocaine allegedly. She was so wasted she nearly fell prior to going out, during her performance and during her departure off stage.

Right before Spears went on stage she attempted to call her children who were not available. The kids were staying at her ex husband K-Feds house with Britney’s mother and father. She shed many tears at the fact she was unable to reach them, calling out for them after her disastrous performance.

Spears was going to boycott the show all together but was afraid of loosing every bit of her career. “She took no direction in what anyone had to tell her or advise her on and she was absolutely rebellious with no talent anymore,” the source ads.

What do you think? Wasn’t she moving entirely too slowly to have been doing lines so close to taking the stage? Cocaine is an upper. Thoughts?
