Alicia opened the show with some of her old and new tracks before inviting Beyonce on stage to perform a duet of their new single, Put It In A Love Song.

Also joining her on stage at MSG were her rapper boyfriend and Beyonce’s husband Jay-Z who performed Empire State Of Mind.  It was like a double date.

It looks like Britney Spears is single again!!  The rumor mill is swirling and it looks like Spears and boyfriend, Jason Trawick are finished.

Spears reportedly ended her romance with Jason Trawick (who also happens to be her manager) at the end of February following a year-long romance because they had been arguing constantly.

Despite their split Trawick will still represent Britney through the New York-based entertainment agency, William Morris Endeavor Entertainment, where he works.

This isn’t the first time the pair have seemingly split. Spears is said to have dumped Jason in January after learning he had been flirting with two women at Los Angeles’ Roger Room bar before getting back together.

Britney – who has two sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline – and Trawick started dating in March 2009. They split briefly in August, but soon reconciled.

Since their romance began, Jason has proposed to Britney several times.

It’s good to see Britney is taking care of herself and not tolerating “bad boy” behavior.

Beyonce supported hubby Jay-Z at the Barclays Center Groundbreaking Ceremony this Thursday (March 12th) at the Atlantic Yards in New York.

Jay-Z joined politicians and officials for the groundbreaking ceremony for the Barclays Center, it will eventually be the new home of the New Jersey Nets. 

“What I stand here and represent is hope for Brooklyn, New York City. I’m a son of Brooklyn, I’m from Marcy projects,” Jay said. “I think about growing up in Brooklyn in the Marcy projects and shooting jump shots, thinking I can make it to the NBA. Now I stand here as an owner of a team that’s coming back to Brooklyn. The pride in that, and bringing that dream so much closer for people, brings me so much pride I get a little nervous about it. But I’m very happy, very excited about this day. And we did it again, Brooklyn — shout-out to [Notorious] B.I.G.”

If you aren’t playing for the NBA – then owning the team is a great alternative (lol). 

Demi Lovato has confirmed that she is dating Joe Jonas.

During an interview on radio program, The Billy Bush Show, the host asked Lovato if she’d ever dated any of the Jonas Brothers, “Umm, maybe,” she said coyly.

Bush questioned Lovato, who admitted that they went from best friends to boyfriend-girlfriend. 

Lovato described Jonas as a “complete gentleman,” who “treats me to the most amazing places.”

She added, “He’s perfect.”

Lovato first met Jonas, 20, on the set of Camp Rock in 2007 and toured with the Jonas Brothers the following year. The pair have long been rumored to be a couple, which Lovato had previously denied. The pair recently filmed a video for their duet “Make A Wave.”

Young love – do you think it will last??
