There's no amount of money in the world that would make us sit through the American Music Awards (OK, that's not entirely accurate), so instead of a write-up of the snooze-fest, here's an exhaustive collection of photos. From the looks of things, Miley Cyrus once again made the entire event all about her (and her 16th birthday, which she's been celebrating for the past few months). Surprise, surprise.

Current Jennifer Aniston love interest John Mayer has been snatched up by CBS to host a variety show in 2009. According to insiders, the weekly extravaganza will be a "music, variety and sketch show in the '60s mold."
Because if Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey taught us anything, it's that prime time variety shows are insanely successful.

Here's your first glimpse at the cover of Jessica Simpson's new country album — or, as we like to call it, her attempt to fit in with her Dallas Cowboy boyfriend. First the LA sex kitten act for Nick Lachey, then the dark emo hair for John Mayer, and now this.
The boots add a nice touch, Jess, but that still doesn't mean Texas is going to welcome you with open arms.

Maxim held its Hot 100 party last night in LA, which played host to many horny males hoping to score with desperate women. This event would have been the perfect time to lock everyone in and save the rest of the world from STDs.

Thank God for Jessica Simpson, y'all.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo could have been in Arizona yesterday playing in the biggest game of the year. But Jessica had to whisk him away to Mexico before the playoffs, thus ruining the season for the Cowboys and the entire state of Texas.
But obviously Tony got the last laugh: He spent Super Bowl Sunday hauling around Jessica's dog, Daisy. And then he probably hung out at the Simpson household while Papa Joe stared at Jessica's boobs and she busted out old buffalo wing jokes.
You hear that? That's the sound of Nick Lachey laughing his ass off.

NBC is actually going to broadcast a show called Clash of the Choirs, simultaneously sating America's forgotten Sister Act 2 fans and proving that this writer's strike really needs to come to an end.
Michael Bolton, Patti LaBelle, Nick Lachey and Kelly Rowland are all involved with the show in some way or another, which should give you a clear understanding of just where their careers are going. Vanessa Minnillo will be hosting.
It's going to be terrible. Also: Quit putting church stuff on our TV!
America's most famous married pornographers, Pamela Anderson and Rick Salomon, are said to be working on a new filmed project: a reality show for digital trough E!.
To describe the show, one "insider" says, "Think Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson's show, but with a crazier family life." Actually, we'd prefer to not!

& bull; This guy tries to nab the FOX News mic instead of the absurdly coveted iPhone. People are calling him stupid and I think that's more than obvious. What's not obvious is why they didn't give him the mic. Normally, FOX lets every dunce with an opinion get their hands on one. [BWE]

Nick Lachey is being accused of grabbing a photographer by the neck and shoving him, while simultaneously whispering into his ear, "I'm going to fucking kill you if I ever see you again!" This following the paparazzo directing a "nasty" comment toward Lachey's girlfriend, Vanessa Minnillo.
Though he is wearing a trucker hat—a good indicator of a clueless dick—be sure to watch the movie before passing judgment. From what I can ascertain, Lachey's pissed, but he's certainly not violent. If there's anyone to be afraid of, it's that knife-wielding VJ.

Here's Jessica Simpson catching flies (as always) at a Nike party in Cannes. While Simpson doesn't appear to be the type of person that turns down party opportunities, members of Operation Smile, a charity Jessica has supported in the past, was surprised when she didn't attend their recent fete.
The question on everyone's mind at the Operation Smile benefit the other night was: Where is Jessica Simpson?The chesty singer has been a huge supporter of the cause for 10 years but stopped after her well-publicized trip to Africa for the charity last year, and her split from hubby Nick Lachey. "She's turned her back on them," the spy said. "She got a lot of good publicity from the charity but re fused to let pictures of her be in the commemorative book and hasn't done anything with them in a year."
Did Dante specifically address what circle of hell is reserved for those who use impoverished children with cleft palates to further their careers before dropping them like a hot brick the moment they become slightly cumbersome? I bet it's a hot one. Her minister/manager/dad/breast enthusiast better be praying his heart out for her.
