Chris Brown, Rihanna, and Kanye West were among the big winners Sunday at the
American Music Awards. Brown took home the biggest prize of all, winning Artist of the Year by beating out Lil Wayne, Coldplay, the Eagles, and Alicia Keys. It was one of three awards for Brown, who also won Favorite Male Artist in both the pop/rock and soul/R&B categories.

Carrie proved to be the hostess with the mostest at
last night's CMA awards. She had so many wardrobe changes, I couldn't squeeze them all in here. But, these are my favorites.

The
red carpet was fun, but the real action happened on stage at last night's CMA Awards. Reese was out to present Brad Paisley the award for Male Vocalist of the Year while Nicole Kidman left Keith's side for a minute to give out a statue alongside her
Australia costar Hugh Jackman. Keith didn't take home any statues but he did perform his new single to kick off the show alongside the hosts for the night, Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley.

Country music stars came out in Nashville last night for the
CMAs and to honor each other. Reese Witherspoon looked gorgeous out to present an award during the show, but she wasn't the only actress to grace the stage. Nicole Kidman took the stage too, but her first priority was supporting her performing and nominated husband Keith Urban.

If tonight's CMA Awards are the main event, last night's BMI Country Awards were an excellent taste of what to expect. Stars of the genre gathered in Nashville last night to hand out some medals. Nicole and Keith
traded off nights being honored and this time it was his turn.

American Idol winner Carrie Underwood is the latest star to have a wax figure sculpted in her likeness. The country singer posed with her waxwork at Madame Tussauds in New York City yesterday, and even linked arms with it. We've seen a fair few
waxworks in recent months, and I'd love to know what you think of this latest figure, so tell me: is Carrie Underwood's waxwork a fab likeness or just plain freaky?

Last time we saw Carrie Underwood with her DS,
she was playing with her virtual pups in Nintendogs. This time she's kicking butt and taking names while racing a few of her bandmates in Mario Kart. She still has that awesome Metallic Rose DS (so jealous), and seems to have a pretty good strategy on how to take out her competition.

At the end of last week, before the VMAs, crowds of celebs were in New York for Fashion Rocks, which helped kick off the city's
Fashion Week. This year it was also helping to support US charity
Stand Up To Cancer, and a host of amazing female singers including Beyonce, Mary J Blige, our very own Leona Lewis, Natasha Bedingfield, Ashanti, Carrie Underwood and Mariah Carey took to the stage to sing their single "Just Stand Up" for the cause — check out the video after the jump.
Beyonce also took to the stage with Justin Timberlake for a duet, and Deborah Harry teamed up with Fergie for a number too.
