Kylie Jenner and Tyga Throw It Down at AMA After-Party

So much for those Kylie Jenner and Tyga breakup rumors. Both the 18-year old reality star and 25-year old rapper attended the 2015 American Music Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday night. And while the pair did not walk the red carpet together, Jenner and Tyga hung out in the audience during most of the Jennifer Lopez-hosted ceremony. The event took place just days after Kylie and Tyga supposedly split , with insiders claiming tension over which was more famous became too much for the tandem to handle. But Jenner shared a Snapchat video just 36 hours after the couple’s alleged demise, one that seemed to depict them in bed and one that included the text “everyone needs to chill.” Fast forward to the American Music Awards and Kyle shared another video of Tyga dancing in the lobby of the Microsoft Theater. She also posted footage of her entourage’s limo ride to an after-party at The Nice Guy in Hollywood… and, yes, it included a snapshot of Tyga in a suit, bobbing his head to some music. Need more proof that all is good between Jenner and Tyga? The latter spent Saturday, November 21 hanging out Kourtney Kardashian and Kanye West while partying at Diddy’s birthday bash. “Tyga was hanging out with Kanye and Kourtney Kardashian most of the night,” a source tells Us Weekly. “He was getting along great with Kanye and Kourtney all night and they were smiling and chatting so this breakup must not be that bad. It was totally cordial between them all.” So there you go. We’re not entirely sure what happened between these two and we can’t guarantee they stay together forever. But you can breathe a sigh of relief now, Kyga lovers. All is clearly all good. View Slideshow: 18 Things We’d Like to Do With Kylie Jenner Now That She’s 18

Demi Lovato and Alanis Morissette "Oughta Know" at AMAs

WARNING to all men around America: do not mess with Demi Lovato. Or Alanis Morissette, for that matter. But we already knew that. Billed by ABC ahead of time as an “epic” duet, the singers came together on stage at the 2015 American Music Awards and took us back in time to 1995. In celebration of Morissette released her iconic album, “Jagged Little Pill,” the Canadian star teamed up with Lovato for a rendition of “You Oughta Know.” The performance of this anger-filled breakup anthem actually marked Morissette's first-ever time performing at the American Music Awards, despite having won two of its trophies back in the day, Favorite Pop/Rock Female and Favorite Pop/Rock Album in 1997. In August, meanwhile, Morissette also performed “You Oughta Know” with Taylor Swift as part of the latter’s 1989 tour. Moreover, she stopped by The Late Late Show with James Corden to update Ironic in hilarious fashion just a couple weeks ago. Isn't it nice to have Alanis back in our lives?!? Which version do you like better? That of Alanis and Taylor or that of Alanis and Demi? There's an easy way to find out: Click the link above to listen/watch the former and watch the video below to check out the latter. ( Note to Wilmer Valderrama:  We're not kidding, dude. After viewing this footage, you are going to want to stay loyal to Lovato. She means business. Hot, vengeful, vindictive business. Don't cheat, man.)

Justin Bieber Closes American Music Awards: WATCH!

Jennifer Lopez opened the 2015 American Music Awards with a dance performance for the ages. Seriously, you need to watch J. Lo get down and dirty to nearly every hit from the past calendar year. So, how did the ceremony top this medley to close the show? Easy: It brought in Justin Bieber! A little more than a week after his latest album went up for sale (and his number-one! Take that, One Direction!), the beloved artist put on a medley of his own as the final performer of the evening. Justin opened with “What Do You Mean” and then went into “Where Are U Now” before singing “Sorry” while being doused with water raining from above. ABC and T-Mobile had promised before the American Music Awards that Justin Bieber would “shatter expectations,” closing the show “in a way [we’ve] never seen before.” We guess that's technically, literally true. We've never seen a rain-soaked Bieber on stage before. Earlier in the night, Justin won Collaboration of the Year with Jack U for “Where Are U Now.” This marked Bieber's eighth win at the American Music Awards, after having taken home Artist of the Year in both 2010 and 2012. Impressive! Check out his medley of hits off the album “Purpose” below and sound off: Is Biebe truly back?!?

Britney Spears: Engaged to David Lucado?

Will Britney Spears walk down the aisle again?  The pop princess was seen sporting a new band on THAT finger at her son’s soccer game on Saturday, sparking rumors that she might be engaged to beau David Lucado .  Brit Brit and David met nine months ago and the pair have been looking loved up ever since they went public as an item, so it wouldn’t be a total shock. There’s no official word yet on whether the couple are engaged (or married), but we wouldn’t be shocked if they went ahead and made it official.  Spears has said “I do” twice before. She wed Kevin Federline, the father of her two sons, back in 2004 and famously married childhood pal Jason Alexander for a few hours earlier that year.  Britney was engaged to now-ex Jason Trawick for about a year until the couple called it off.  Spears is currently in the midst of her Las Vegas residency at Planet Hollywood. Could a visit to one of Sin City’s nearby chapels be far off?  Third time’s a charm, eh?

Trent Reznor Tweets "F–k You" After Getting Cut Off At Grammys

Trent Reznor has some choice words for you, Grammys.  The Nine Inch Nails rocker took part in last night’s music award show’s grand finale, but was cut off by the closing credits before finishing his set.  Reznor took to twitter (where else?) to express his anger: “Music’s biggest night… to be disrespected.  A heartfelt F–K YOU guys.” Hear that, CBS? Reznor was joined on stage by superstar singers Dave Grohl, Queen of the Stone Age’s Josh Homme, and Fleetwood Mac’s Lindsey Buckingham to close the show, but their epic collaboration came to an unfortunate early end.  But i’s not like he was a fan of the Grammys to begin with. The outspoken artist previously told The Hollywood Reporter :  “Why don’t the Grammys matter? Because it feels rigged and cheap. Like a popularity contest that the insiders club has decided.” Tell ’em how you really feel, Trent!

Jon Bon Jovi: Living on a Prayer, Limping on a Stage

When the union went on strike, did Tommy give up? When tips at the diner were sparse, did Gina throw in her apron? No and no. Therefore, legendary rocker Jon Bon Jovi – inspired by the characters he created for the iconic single “Livin on a Prayer” – continued with his concert in New Jersey over the weekend, despite a serious leg injury sustained during the set. Said a spokesperson afterward: “Jon Bon Jovi sustained a torn calf muscle. [He] made light of the injury and went on to close the show… The band ended the night together, thanking the capacity hometown crowd, and assisting Jon off the stage.” The development won’t stop Bon Jovi from playing every stop of its tour this summer. Watch the injured lead singer in action below: Bon Jovi in Concert
