  • Following her interesting rendition of “The Star Spangled Banner” at Super Bowl, Alicia Keys once again received mixed reviews after performing Sunday at the NBA All-Star game in Houston.

    Swizz Beatz’s wife was the halftime performer and ran through hits like “Empire State of Mind,” “Girl on Fire,” and “No One.” While no one questions Keys is a vocal powerhouse, something about her performance certainly didn’t translate into people’s living rooms.

    Some stars, like Flea from The Red Hot Chili Peppers, took to Twitter to comment on the production and sound:

    Keys didn’t come close to Beyoncé’s infamous Super Bowl Halftime show. To be fair, there is no way her budget was in the same realm of B’s in order to produce such an epic performance. But, Jay-Z’s wife seemed to enjoy the show! Beyoncé was seen dancing and singing along to Keys’ medleys. Regardless, the “Girl on Fire” singer appeared to be

  • Who is the man behind the winning Oscar envelope?

    The Oscar statue is certainly the most recognizable symbol of the Academy Awards, but the gold envelope that contains the winners’ names is arguably just as iconic.

    So, who is the man behind the winning envelope’s look? Well, his name is Marc Friedland, and he’s an invitation designer who creates stationery arts for dozens of Hollywood’s biggest stars, including Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Aniston and Tom Hanks.

    And while Friedland may work for some of the best actors in the biz, it’s safe to say that his biggest client is The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Not only does he make the envelopes for the Oscars, he also creates the elegant stationery for the Governors Awards, the Nominees Luncheon, the Scientific and Technical Awards and the Foreign Language Film Nominees Reception. And Marc's invitations aren't just for the stars. You can even bring the Oscars into your home with his online collection!

    Check out the vid to get a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the envelopes!

  • Ashley Olsen was spotted in New York City on Sunday looking like she was channeling her inner Chewbacca. The Elizabeth and James designer has been known to make some interesting clothing choices, but with this bizarre coat, maybe she’s gone a bit too ‘fur’… which is ironic considering that she was in the Big Apple for Fashion Week.

    It’s certainly by no means the first time the former “Full House” star has donned some Wookiee attire. Turns out, Mary-Kate and Ashley have been rocking this trend for years.

    Check out this vid to see why we think Ashley is paying homage to the “Star Wars” beast!

  • Mindy McCready performing in 2008. (Brad Barket/WireImage)The morning after she committed suicide, Mindy McCready’s death is still shocking to the world. But it came as little surprise to those who knew her best.

    On Monday – just one day after she killed herself with a single gunshot to the face on the porch of her home in Heber Springs, Arkansas – her ex-boyfriend (and the father of her 6-year-old son, Zander), Billy McKnight, revealed in an interview with the “Today” show, “As sad as it is, it didn’t come as a major shock. She’s just been battling demons for so long … I was around her when she attempted suicide twice, so I knew it was in her.”

  • Rihanna tends to her bloody knee. (WeirPhotos/Splash News)Rihanna didn’t have such jolly good time for all of her time in London.

  • In an article in The Sunday Times, pop-princess Rihanna is being called the new Princess Diana. While on the surface the two might not seem to have much in common, the article explains its logic in that both women first began as sensitive and wounded women, but transformed themselves into living sculptures for photographers’ lenses.

    The world fell in love with both Lady Di and RiRi before they reached their 20's. They're known for great style, and their relationships with their respective lovers, Prince Charles and Chris Brown – both of whom many in the public thought of as wrong matches for them -- have made headlines.

    The article came out on the same day that, according to new photos taken by Splash News, RiRi was seen leaving London nightclub The Box with a bloody knee after someone reportedly threw an energy drink bottle at her.

    However, does it go a bit too far to call Rihanna the next Princess Diana? What do you think? Join the conversation on Facebook and Twitter with #omginsider.

    And check out this vid to see more on the Rihanna and Princess Diana juxtaposition.
