Christina Aguilera Says Her AMA Performance Will Be A ‘Spectacle’

‘You’re going to get quite the show,’ she tells MTV News of performing a ‘Burlesque’ number at Sunday’s show. By Kara Warner Christina Aguilera Photo: MTV News The American Music Awards are known for their high-octane performances , and this year is no exception, with Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Kid Rock, Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Ke$ha, Pink, Usher, Ne-Yo, Diddy and more set to hit the stage. Christina Aguilera will also be performing, doing a number from her upcoming movie “Burlesque.” When MTV News caught up with the Grammy winner/ movie newbie recently, while doing press with her hunky “Burlesque” co-star Cam Gigandet, we asked her what fans can expect from her AMA performance. “It’s going to be fantastic,” she said. “And it will give you a fitting little look inside the movie.” Aguilera said her saucy, burlesque-style dancing will set her performance apart from past appearances. “It will be another very new challenge for me,” Aguilera admitted. “My legs have been incredibly sore as I stepped into the role of Ali for this.” In the film, Aguilera plays a small-town girl with big dreams — Ali — who stumbles on a burlesque club owned by the feisty Tess (Cher). Aguilera added that, while re-learning the dance routines was grueling, the choreography is amazing. “You’re going to get quite the show,” she promised. “Quite the spectacle.” While Aguilera is new to the world of acting, Cher told MTV News that the pop star can dish it out with the best of them. “The scenes that she and I had together, I really enjoyed, and I really believe that she’s got definite chops,” she said. “We worked well together. I enjoyed all of it, and she was toe-to-toe with me the whole time.” What are you expecting from Christina’s AMA performance? Let us know in the comments!

Prom Trailer: Is Disney the New King of High School Cinema?

I’ve waited years for a movie to get prom right. Mean Girls came close with its ludicrous prom queen coronation sequence, but otherwise you rarely see prom depicted for what it is (at least to me ): a disillusioning display of social status, pettiness and rented decorations. Teen cinema is so often invested in “popularity” as a legitimate high school force that proms are treated like magical and climactic events as opposed to well-chaperoned letdowns. But maybe Disney is on to something with its new movie Prom , a flick that looks a bit more Degrassi than de rigeur .

Fox News Anchors Caught Mocking Sarah Palin’s Reality Show

Matthew Morrison Details magazine

“I#39;m not a good friend right now. I#39;m not a good boyfriend,” the Glee star tells Details in its December/January issue. “I am a teacher to them,” he says of his younger castmates, whom he refers to as “the kids.” “I#39;ve taken a few under my wing.” And he wishes some of them could be less publicity driven. “I find myself learning a lot from the set,” he says. “I do look at stuff people on the show are doing, and I don#39;t judge them, but I question it. I say to myself, #39;Keep quiet.#

‘Glee’ Super Bowl Episode To Feature Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’

Entertainment Weekly reports the MJ classic will be mashed up with a yet-to-be-chosen song. By James Dinh The cast of “Glee” Photo: Kevin Winter/ Getty Images After a string of high-profile guest stars and theme episodes, “Glee” will reportedly take on Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” next in a mash-up with a yet-to-be-chosen song for the show’s post-Super Bowl episode , according to Entertainment Weekly. The episode, which will be co-sponsored by General Motors, is said to be the most expensive of the series’ history and likely one of television’s priciest episodes ever. Despite the cast’s “Thriller” mash-up, the broadcast will not serve as a tribute episode to the late King of Pop, but will feature contemporary covers of the Black Eyed Peas, Lady Antebellum and Katy Perry. As for how Jackson’s song will be incorporated into the show, the EW source revealed that the episode will have a sports theme by focusing on the local football championship and Sue Sylvester’s cheerleading regionals. The “Thriller” mash-up is expected to play onscreen during the game’s halftime. In addition to the timeless tune, Darren Criss and Dot-Marie Jones will reprise their roles as Blaine and Coach Beiste for the big time production. Earlier this year, rumors swirled about who the post-Super Bowl episode would pay homage to, including Bruce Springsteen. However, the source admitted that the only star considered for the episode was Elton John. Gleeks can expect a tribute episode for John as one of the season’s remaining episodes. Back in August, “Glee” star Lea Michele shared her idea for the episode. “I think they are saving Justin Timberlake for the Super Bowl episode,” she told The Hollywood Reporter. “They have to be, because he is so perfect for our show. He has to be on it! When I met Jessica Biel, like a loser, I asked her to tell Justin to come on our show. [ Laughs. ] She was a little taken aback and said, ‘Um, OK. I’ll tell him.’ ” What song do you want to see in the “Thriller” mash-up? Share your ideas in the comments! Related Photos What Other ‘Glee’ Music Videos Do We Want To See?
