Zooey Deschanel: 2011 Emmy Awards Adorable

Joining in on the annual toast to television's finest, Zooey Deschanel glammed up the 63rd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards earlier this evening (September 18).

The ?(500) Days of Summer? looked dashing in a floor-length, pink Monique Lhuillier gown as she took the Nokia Theatre stage alongside Will Arnett for presenter duties.

Prior to showtime, Miss Deschanel voiced her distaste for heels, as she told E! News, "I always want to wear flats, but I'm wearing heels. They wouldn't let me."

Hosted by Jane Lynch, the show looks to be as star studded as ever, as an A-list line up of Tinseltown heavyweights are scheduled to appear.

Among other celebs slated to take the stage to dole out the affair's coveted awards are Sofia Vergara, Ashton Kutcher, Amy Poehler and Jon Cryer.

Just days after it was leaked on Friday, Britney Spears and her femme fatales, Nicki Minaj and Ke$ha, dropped their official remix of "Till the World Ends."

The new version of the song was produced by Dr. Luke and Dream Machine. Brit half-whispers " 'Till the World Ends' remix" before the beat kicks in and Nicki hits her verse hard. She spits fierce lines like, "Sniff, sniff, cries/ I done slayed your whole entire f---ing life."

Then Britney's sex-kitten vocals kick in for the song's first verse. "That's Britney, bitch! I'm Nicki Minaj and that's Ke$ha," the Queens MC declares before K sings the chorus. The beat is harder, the loops are sassier and the song is grimier than the original version, which was the second single from Femme Fatale. The newly added dubstep portion takes the one from "Hold It Against Me" to a new level by adding in bass-heavy synths.

Ke$ha, of course, wrote the track for Britney, and the ladies certainly don't seem to mind sharing the spotlight with each other. The official track isn't much different than the version that leaked over the weekend, though Spears did have something brand-new to share with her fans just as the song dropped on iTunes and streamed on her website.

Spears tweeted the artwork for the single, which features the original press photo of Spears along with separate photos of Nicki on the left and Ke$ha on the right. Spears wrote, "@NickiMinaj @Keshasuxx Too much fierceness for one cover! Thanks for lending your voices girls... #TTWEREMIX — Brit"

Spears and Minaj have been hanging out a lot in the lead-up to their summer tour. They hung out at the Factory nightclub on Friday night after Minaj's show in Los Angeles. Spears later wrote, "Early rehearsal after a late night with my girl @NickiMinaj. Can't WAIT to get out on the road with you."

'Killer Elite' Is 'More Grown-Up,' Jason Statham Says

Also starring Robert De Niro and Clive Owen, 'This is a thinking man's action movie,' star tells MTV News.

Jason Statham has got nothing against skull-cracking, explosions-for-explosions-sake action flicks. The guy made his name with "The Transporter," after all, and he's getting set for a second go-round opposite Sylvester Stallone in "The Expendables 2."

But "Killer Elite" (September 23), despite a title that suggests it's another in a long line of empty-headed, Statham-starring adventures, is an altogether different creation. Based on a true story that spans the globe from France to Australia, the film stars Statham as an ex-special ops agent on a mission to save his mentor (Robert De Niro), who's being held captive by a secretive military clan and its menacing leader (Clive Owen). There's a grittiness simply not seen in much of Statham's previous work.

"This is something I've been wanting to do for a long time," Statham told MTV News at the Toronto International Film Festival. "This is a thinking man's action movie. It's a bit more grown-up than things in the past I've done. In order to do movies like this, I have to go through and do a few of those as well. There's a lot more going on."

That extends from the words on the page to the guy behind the camera to the dudes mixing it up with Statham when writer/director Gary McKendry yells, "Action!"

"The quality of the script, the quality of the filmmaker — those are two elements that attract living legends like Bob De Niro and Clive Owen," Statham said. "Once I start boxing around with those two, the whole quality of what we're doing changes. It's a big step up."

Check out everything we've got on "Killer Elite."

Another year, another unbelievably action-packed Video Music Awards. As expected, viewers were treated to mind-blowing performances and several jaw-dropping surprises. The most unexpected moment came courtesy of Beyoncé Knowles, who not so subtly announced to the world that she and husband Jay-Z are expecting their first child.

When B unbuttoned her sparkly jacket and rubbed her belly with a knowing smile, after which the camera panned to a visibly elated Jay-Z and Kanye West cheering from the audience, the Nokia Theatre was bursting with warm and fuzzy well-wishes for the soon-to-be parents. And that very public moment of celebration was just the beginning.

When Beyoncé returned backstage to her dressing room, she was greeted by a team of people who enveloped the visibly happy star with hugs, cheers and congratulations.

"I'm free!" she said to one of the well-wishers, indicating that she and Jay are thrilled to not have to keep such a big secret any longer. "We're all free!" she said to the group.

A few minutes after her arrival backstage, she was joined by her husband, a very excited West (whose first words upon entering the dressing-room area were "Where is Beyoncé?" as if he could not wait to give B a huge hug) and her former Destiny's Child ladies, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams. Even with the doors to their dressing rooms closed, the applause and whoops of joy could be heard everywhere backstage.

"That was an eventful night, to say the least," Jay, still smiling, said to some of the revelers in the hallway, who continued to shower him with congratulations and hugs.

The 28th annual MTV Video Music Awards have wrapped, but the real action is just getting started! Stick with MTV News for winners, fashion pics, video and behind-the-scenes stories about everything that went down. Visit VMA.MTV.com for the latest.

Michaele Salahi has gone from (alleged) White House crasher to music groupie -- as she was spotted tonight outside the Journey concert in Tampa, FL with her new man, guitarist Neal Schon.

Since her soon-to-be ex-husband Tareq is banned from Journey shows, it really is the last place she's bound to run into him.

Katie Holmes -- Driver Escapes Ticket in Beverly Hills

Filed under: Katie Holmes, Celebrity Justice, Paparazzi Photo

0917_katie_holmes_x17_exd
Katie Holmes' driver was pulled over yesterday in Beverly Hills -- with Katie inside -- but the driver was able to escape with just a warning ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the driver was spotted doing a major no-no ... driving while talking on his cell phone. But when cops pulled them over (the black Mercedes, pictured above), we're told the driver escaped without getting ticketed.

Maybe the cop was a big "Dawson's Creek" fan?

Michaele Salahi -- Offered Job at Website for Cheaters

Filed under: Michaele Salahi, Tareq Salahi

0917_michaele_salahi_letter_EX2
Michaele Salahi has suddenly become the most famous cheating spouse in the land -- which is why one website that specializes in extramarital affairs ... wants her to be their new spokeswoman.

A site called MarriedWivesClub.com has reached out to Salahi's management group in an effort to recruit her to work for them. The site -- which claims that 50% of women and 60% of men cheat -- feels that Michaele would be "the perfect cheating spouse to represent" them.

Because when you've landed one of the guys from Journey, clearly you know what you're doing.
