Katy Perry, above, was the queen of the night, wearing a heavily jeweled dress featuring the Virgin Mary on it.

Metropolitan Museum of Art Director and CEO Thomas P. Campbell explained the punk theme: "Punk's signature mixing of references was fueled by artistic developm...

Several celebs who were unable to get into the Academy Awards did the second best thing - they attended the 21st Annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party at the Pacific Design Center.

2012 saw its fair share of celebrities showing off their sexy curves in bikinis at the beach (and one-piece suits as well), but which stars were the sexiest of all?

The actress recently admitted she was treated to hotdogs as a child if she showed off her singing skills. A member of New York's Metropolitan Opera Children's Chorus, a local butcher gave her lunch if she sang him an aria.

Shameless isn't a perennial feel-good Sunday night doozy, like the typical start-of-the-week programs that occupy that particular corner of television airwaves. And yet it's disguised as one, what with its upbeat intro, yellow-hued color scheme and boisterous clan of characters. At its chore, Shameless is a sad drama about a poverty-stricken family and their woes of addiction. But what separates Shameless from run-of-the-mill melodrama is the fierce will of each member of the Gallagher family. There's no time to be sad about their absent mother or drunkenly abrasive father, Frank (William H...
