American Idol Jordin Sparks has publicly made it known that she has a crush on fellow teen singer Chris Brown. But unfortunately for her, she’s traveling down a one-way street. This is what Chris Brown had to say at Fashion Rocks:
“I heard that [she has a crush on me]. But when we did that video, I didn’t feel that chemistry. I didn’t feel that. When they yell action, you have to put on a certain performance, but as far as off-camera: there’s no connection.”
Ouch! I know one person who won’t be quick to name off their crushes in the future…

The 2008 Video Music Awards aired Sunday night and yours truly is here to bring you the 411 on all of the hottest (and not so hot) styles worn at the show! There were many hot styles worn to the show, but first and foremost, I gotta show some love to the men, because if you take out the select few that I will talk about later on in the post, just about every guy was dressed to impress! Some of the best dressed male celebs of the night were Ludacris, Ne-Yo, LL Cool J, T.I, John Legend, and Chris Brown. Ludacris looked like Mr. Urban High Fashion wearing Gucci from head to toe (tie included), Ne-Yo also looked good rocking Gucci from head to toe, LL Cool J lost the bedazzled tee’s and kept it simple yet classy in Gucci, John Legend really gave an edge to the classic white button up, black tie, and pants look by adding a fly white leather jacket, and Chris Brown decided not to wear his favorite red carpet designer and opted for a Louis Vuitton Jacket, Cassett Jeans, and Dior kicks.

LOS ANGELES // SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 7TH 2008 » I didn’t really get a chance to sit down and watch the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, so I can’t really tell you what went down, but judging by the photos, it looks to have been a pretty good show; much better than last year, I hope!
