FORBES HIGHEST PAID STARS UNDER 30

Now leave it up to Forbes to let us know who is making a lot more money than us! This is the Forbes List of Highest Paid Stars Under 30. Looking at the list, you'll notice that the highest paid celebrities are mainly females and almost all in the music industry, besides the Twilight stars. Forbes looked at the earnings between May 2011 and May 2012 and included pay for everything entertainment related such as album and concert revenue, movie pay days and endorsements.


Robert Pattinson - 26
Pay - $26.5 million
Now I can see how he makes the list, at least he has a list of movies that he's starred in besides Twilight including Remember Me and Water for Elephants. For some reason, this "vampire" looks a lot older than 26 too! He is young...or is he fooling us?

Taylor Lautner - 20
Pay - $26.5 million
I honestly don't see how Taylor Lautner has made that much money with basically having Twilight under his belt. Fame and popularity raked in the bucks on this one.

Lil Wayne - 29
Pay - $27 million
Okay, for some reason, why did I think Lil Wayne was older than 29?! He's still so young and has gone through so much! Props to him! During the past year, he has earned $600,000 per show and has recently launched his own clothing line called Trukfit and signed a big endorsement deal with Mountain Dew.

Kristen Stewart - 22
Pay - $34.5 million
Glad to see Kristen Stewart made it on this list and managed to top the list of the Highest Paid Actresses. Her movies include big hits such as the Twilight saga, and Snow White and the Huntsman. The constant tabloid press around her and Robert Pattinson doesn't hurt either.

Adele - 24
Pay - $35 million
I guess it does pay to sing about heartbreak. From her album 21, she has sold over 23 million copies AND has won all 6 Grammy awards for which she was nominated. Try beating that!

Katy Perry - 27
Pay - $45 million
If you didn't know, Katy Perry and Michael Jackson are the only artists in music history to have 5 #1 singles from the same album. On her California Dream tour, she grossed an impressive $60 million dollars!

Lady Gaga - 26
Pay - $52 million
Formerly topping the list last year, Lady Gaga takes a back seat since she's not touring. Her money this year comes a lot from music sales and her social media influence.

Rihanna - 24
Pay - $53 million
Money talks that talk to Rihanna. Besides releasing one hit after another, she's involved with endorsements with Vita Coco and Nivea along with her own fragrance Reb'l Fleur. Stay tuned for her upcoming tour!

Justin Bieber - 18
Pay - $55 million
Wherever Justin Bieber goes, money and screaming girls follow. Did you know that his video "Baby" is the most watched video in YouTube history? Now that's a feat!

Taylor Swift - 22
Pay - $57 Million
Taylor Swift is a money-making machine. During her most recent tour, she made about $1 million per night. Her many accolades include winning two Grammys for the song "Mean" and being one of the faces of CoverGirl.

Power to the under 30 stars who have made this list! Not only are they young, but very talented! Were you surprised to see who made the list?

Justin Bieber Sports a ROLEX Ring... O.G.-Style!!!

Justin Bieber still makin' ladies swoon...

Check out Justin Bieber singing a capella on 'The Tonight Show with Jay Leno' in his Pierre Balmain denim jacket and Rolex ring. A nice way to bring old-world vintage (with the jacket) and fuse that with O.G. style (the ring).

The cherry on top is the hair (just sayin...)

BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARDS 2012 RECAP

Last night was the Billboard Music Awards 2012 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Honestly, the one reason why I tuned into this broadcast was LMFAO of course! If I spoke too soon, hold on to your horses because LMFAO ended up opening up the show with my song "Sexy and I Know It". But honestly, that was probably one of the top highlights of the night, including Jordin Sparks' & John Legend's tribute to Whitney Houston, and the Alicia Keys & Stevie Wonder duet. Hosts Ty Burrell and Julie Bowen were pretty lackluster in my opinion. They definitely did not make me want to tune into the show, more or less, see what they had to say! I felt for one of music's more iconic nights, especially in Las Vegas, the chosen hosts should have lively, out-of-this-world personalities, don't you?! I felt it was too forced!

If this awards show had any impact on me, it would have to be British boy band The Wanted! All these guys are sooo cute, I'm a fan! Yes, the performances by Justin Bieber and Usher were cool (especially Usher's), but when I think of one pretty bad performance, I would have to give it to Chris Brown. Call me biased already against Chris Brown, but even though he's a great dancer, I AM TIRED OF HIM LIP-SYNCING! IT'S HORRID! Like how more fake do you have to be?

Excerpt from 'Upscale Hype': 'Justin Bieber June 2012 GQ Photo Shoot'

*This is an excerpt from Upscale Hype. By the way, I'm liking Justin Bieber's blazer (above) and that Bruno Mars-inspired hairstyle. The bike is BOSS, too*

GQ suits Justin Bieber up in this Dolce & Gabanna Blazer ($1,645), shirt ($345), and tie ($175) for his “Style Spurt” photo spread. The Style Authority attempts to characterize the 18-year old “boy sensation’s” growth by putting him in “full-grown man’s” clothes. He also wore a Biker Jacket ($2,925), shirt ($345), tie ($195), and khakis ($325) by Dolce & Gabbana, Yves Saint-Laurent Desert Beige Malibu Sneakers ($525) and Flat Large Black Sunglasses by Super ($147). What do you think of Bieber’s new look? See more pics below.

JUSTIN BIEBER'S "BOYFRIEND" VIDEO

Yes, I know this video premiered May 3, and I'm writing on this 3 days later because...I finally have time! Anyways, one word for this video is SWAG. Look at freakin Bieber, getting his grown man on!

Wish the video would've taken the route from when it first begins, rather than starting over and having it be a completely different video. But then again, since the first version looked too risque, it was probably a good thing it didn't go that direction. He is 18, and I'm 23...shame of me for thinking that would be a good idea. Anyways, check out the video and GO0O0O JUSTIN BIEBER!!!

Justin Bieber SWAG On 1,000%: Steps Out Of CHROME Fisker Karma In Balenciaga Sneakers!

Justin Bieber was definitely aiming to be 'never overlooked'. He stepped out of his chrome--yes, ALL-CHROME Fisker Karma car. And if that isn't attention enough, check out the Balenciaga patchwork sneakers, for $595, that he wore to match his Atari-inspired T-shirt.

I thought the look was real hott... but gotta say... CAR's HOTTER! Sorry Justin...

JUSTIN BIEBER COMPLEX BEATDOWN

HAPPY BIEBER JUSTIN BIRTHDAY! Justin Bieber recently turned legal on March 1, so what better way to celebrate coming into manhood than getting beat up like one? Featured on the cover of Complex Magazine's April issue is Mr. Baby himself, Justin Bieber.

With a promo like "That's right, the world's biggest pop star is 18 now, and he's through being your punching bag...", it has me wondering what that quote exactly means. Yes, Justin Bieber has worked hard to get to where he is today, yes he has tons of talent, and yes he will continue being successful, but being people's punching bag? Is it about his so-called "lesbian" look he had with the side swept bangs early in his career? Or his Jesus tat? [I'm still on the wall with that]

Whatever it is, the concept that seemed to suit Bieber's transition into adulthood is to get beaten the pulp out of, then come back and take victory. The video below explains it all...

Justin Bieber's Bloodiest Photo Shoot -- COMPLEX MAGAZINE

Wow, I think this is about the bloodiest photo shoot that I've seen of anyone in any magazine yet. Way to kick off COMPLEX MAGAZINE's 10th anniversary!

Check out Justin Bieber's photo shoot for them, he's dressed somewhat like a referee, with a bowtie, bloodied white shirt, black khakis, and Supra hightops. Justin is actually the son of a former MMA fighter, so I think it goes with the territory.

Cool concept!

JUSTIN BIEBER In Blue MCM x TI$A Jacket and Matching Balenciaga Sneakers

Justin Bieber is a guy of style, like a skater boy meets rapper kind of style. Justin's cerulean blue biker jacket is by MCM x TI$A and it has a belt at the waist, studs on the lapel, with classic logo all over the jacket. There's also the clever pick of his matching Balenciaga sneakers for $595.

Justin was at the 2012 NRJ Awards.

What's right about the outfit is the balance that is displayed. There is not CERULEAN BLUE throughout; the bold jacket and bold color in the sneakers mean that every other clothing item should be toned down to prevent from looking clown-ish.

LEOPARD Is Still In Style For Men? JUSTIN BIEBER And Theophilus London In Kith Leopard Jcket

I'm surprised to see that LEOPARD is in to stay for another season. Check out recent photos of superstar Justin Bieber and creative musician Theophilus London rocking their leopard jackets by Kith for $280.

To be honest, the LEOPARD in EXCESS needs to end. At this point of time, men's leopard should be confined to just creative/artistic sneakers or displayed in different colors like the UBER-POPULAR Versace for H&M varsity jacket. I don't know, maybe LEOPARD will come back strong again for the guys.

JANET JACKSON Spotted Rockin' an 'H' Hermes Belt + JUSTIN BIEBER Sings For The Obamas

I visited one of my favorite fashion sites, FASHION BOMB DAILY, and found two note-worthy pics that I wanted to share with you. Maybe both of you ladies and gents can get an after-Christmas idea of what to buy after gawking at these two pictures.

Check out Janet Jackson strutting down a block sometimes this month wearing all-black with an exception of the white shirt (which is a good fashion step to wearing all-black because it gives some depth and subtle contrast to the entire outfit. Janet rocked the uber-luxurious 'H' Hermes belt that is definitely noticeable if worn right. Those belts usually go for a mere $700 and up.

And also check out the BIEBS (Justin Bieber) performing for the White House party and the Obamas. Malia and Sasha look very beautiful and radiant. By the way, Justin is wearing a Dolce & Gabbana tux.

Weekend Pics: JUSTIN BIEBER & SELENA GOMEZ's Steamy Paparazzi Shot and Miley Cyrus & 50 Cent #FAIL Pic

Well, well... they are a couple, though. I'm talking about Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez, who was seen this past weekend in a compromising position.

I don't even have to say too much; just look at the above picture. It could be that Selena's reaching over Justin for something, or Justin's getting ready to do somethin'...

And meanwhile, check out this awkward photo of Miley Cyrus and 50 Cent (Fiddy or G-Unit) at the American Giving Awards. By the way, it's so beautiful to be giving back this time of year. I do it every Christmas donating to shelters to local organizations.



It's a nice effort they're putting forth, but EFFORT was not applied in making this picture the best. First of all, 50 Cent has an unflattering facial pose. I don't know what it is, but it just ain't right. I had an awkward camera moment before, so I asked the photographer to do another shot to get it right.

And Miley... while her dress and earrings may be nice, please sweetie... don't ever bare your EARS like that again. JUST... NO. *Polite smile*

Justin Bieber's Spiked Hair: Likey Or No Likey?

Celebs seem to be the fashion TRENDSETTERS these days, but can we make our OWN fashion statement, even in our hair?

QUICK QUESTION: DO YOU LIKE JUSTIN BIEBER'S SPIKED HAIR?

(I think it's cool but a lil' on the feminine side when viewed from a certain angle)

Whether our hair is cropped short, curly, long, spiked, updo, bob, it should definitely be our own with just a little celeb influence. 'Cuz I remember when influences like Rihanna caused black girls to shave both sides of their hair in '09 and '10, I WAS FLOORED.

Justin Bieber's New Car: 2011 Cadillac CTS-V 'Batmobile' Coupe

Check out Justin Bieber.... with his SWAGGER and SWAGGERIFIC new whip.

Bieber already has his style game together with his denim vest, red jeans, and Supra sneakers, but the real style is behind him: the 2011 Cadillac CTS-V. It has been fully customized to Bieber's specifications. It was painted matte black, matte black rims, tinted windows, suicide doors, and named 'BATMOBILE' (clever BAT sign on the grille).

Bet Justin has a BAT-CAVE too...

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez Strollin' Thru Rio de Janeiro... Hand-In-Hand... Girls, U Mad??

Not sure what Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez was in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for, but both were looking stylish as they strolled hand-in-hand through a parking lot (it looked pretty windy outside).

Justin wore a popular GOYAS snapback cap, significantly a Louis Vuitton Damier canvas belt for about $460, and ultra-popular SUPRA Skytop sneakers for about $150. See the different colorways of the SUPRAs below:

My friend Yohance loves SUPRAs so much! Shout-out to him and all SUPRA lovers!!

SELENA GOMEZ GETS JUSTIN BIEBER TAT?

Oh what young love can do for the soul?! Who doesn't love that honeymoon phase that consists of the constant butterflies?! Well who better than Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber to remind us about young love where you can't keep your hands off one another and where...you get tattoos?!

The puppy love betweeen the two are too obvious seen in their numerous vacations and public displays of affection. But at Selena's show Saturday night in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay Events Center, the crowd noticed AND captured what looked like a tattoo of the name 'Justin' with a heart on her right wrist. When zoomed upon, the so-called tattoo looked more like the works of a Sharpie. With the couple's affinity for ink along with their open talk about starting a family at an early age (not teens, but in mid-20s), who knows what the future holds for this cute-sy couple.

Through the progression of their relationship, it is obvious the both have definitely grown up fast. The Biebs is getting all inked up, while we see Selena following in potential footsteps by using Sharpie to decorate herself. And have you noticed Miss Gomez's more daring and grown up look? She is only 19, 2 years older than Bieber, but she seems to be growing up fast. She may not look as trashy as Miley, but guuuurrrrrllll we notice you "maturing". Anyways, let's hope this mimicking of a 'Justin' tattoo isn't inspiration for a real one. Be smart girl, you got it!
