Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber and George Clooney better have received something nice from Santa this year, because they certainly weren’t on his naughty list. Those three toplined DoSomething.org‘s Top 20 Celebs Gone Good, the organization’s annual roundup of the most charity-friendly stars in the business.

This is Gaga’s second year in a row at the #1 spot. In 2011 she dedicated much of her time to putting an end to bullying and even started a new charitable organization called Born This Way. The “Marry the Night” singer did plenty more to help out those less fortunate in 2011, including auctioning off a nude sketch for charity and performing at the Bill Clinton Foundation fundraiser.

However, this was really Bieber’s year to shine. He rocketed up DoSomething.org’s list from #10 last year to #2 this year. It helps that Bieber donated some of his profits from his Christmas album, Under the Mistletoe, and his self-named perfume to various charitable organizations. Bieber also kept up his work with Pencils of Promise, a group that has built 41 schools in Laos, Nicaragua and Guatemala and was founded by his manager’s brother.

Rounding out the top five were Will and Jada Pinkett Smith and Leonardo DiCaprio. This was a year for celeb power couples, with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie clocking at #8, Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore at #12 and newlyweds Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert at #14.

Other notable standouts this year were Demi Lovato at #10, Lea Michele making her charitable debut at #16, Daniel Radcliffe at #17, Miley Cyrus at #18 and Taylor Swift rounding out the list at #20.

Justin Bieber has helped light the tree in New York’s Rockefeller Plaza and sang Christmas carols with the president. Now, MTV News has confirmed that the pop star will celebrate the season once more with his very own special, “Justin Bieber: Home for the Holidays.”

Bieber will tape the fundraising special at a secret Toronto location before it airs December 22 on MuchMusic and CTV. In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, Bieber said, “The holidays are a very special time of the year for me and I’m looking forward to coming home and ringing them in with my friends and family.”

Funds raised at the show will benefit Bieber’s Believe charity. Portions of the proceeds raised by his holiday album, Under the Mistletoe, also went to the nonprofit. Believe raises money for organizations like the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Pencils of Promise, Musicians on Call, Project Medishare for Haiti, City of Hope, the Boys & Girls Clubs of America and the Grammy Foundation.

“I am launching the Believe Charity Drive because I know firsthand that if you believe in your dreams, everything is possible,” Bieber said in a statement about the initiative. “The Believe Charity Drive directly benefits charities that are making a difference in the world. You can … donate as little as one dollar, or even donate your time, because everything will make a difference. Please join me in our quest to raise millions of dollars by the release of my new 2012 album, Believe. I know that with your help, we can make a change.”

On Monday (December 12), in addition to announcing the holiday special, Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun also tweeted about the overwhelming success Under the Mistletoe has had since its November debut.

“@JustinBieber’s christmas album ‘Under The Mistletoe’ is the biggest selling International Christmas album for UMG in a decade!!” he tweeted. “That makes it the biggest selling holiday album on Universal in the last decade moving ahead of Andrea Bocelli. very proud and at this rate by Christmas @justinbieber’s ‘Under The Mistletoe’ will be the biggest 4th qtr album release of the entire UMG-EMI system!”

Bieber recorded several classic tunes for the album, as well as original songs, including lead single “Mistletoe.” He worked with artists like Mariah Carey, Usher, the Band Perry, Busta Rhymes and Boyz II Men on the project. “Thank u to everyone supporting this incredible album,” Braun added. “All the stats are amazing but what Im most proud of is the music. REALLY GREAT MUSIC.”

Steven Tyler, Erin Brady Engaged?

»Posted on Dec 29, 2011

Aerosmith?s Steven Tyler is rumored to be engaged after a massive ring was spotted on his girlfriend?s finger. Did he actually pop the question? Love could be in the air for one of the biggest rock stars in the world. Sources claim that Tyler and his girlfriend Erin Brady are more than just a creepy older couple. In fact, word has it that they are set to be married. TMZ broke the story earlier today that the 63-year-old singer did in fact propose to his 38-year-old girlfriend. I have to admit that he won me back a little bit with his work on Idol. I think he is a good fit for the show and doesn?t really come off as old and washed up as I thought he would.

Mariah Carey Shows Off Slim Figure in New Jenny Craig Ad

»Posted on Dec 27, 2011

B Mariah Carey is in fabulous shape after dropping more than 30 pounds.

As for how she did it, the ?Always Be My Baby? songstress used the Jenny Craig weight lost system to shed some weight and get healthy.

In fact, Mariah?s weight loss was so successful that she agreed to become a new brand ambassador for the newly-renamed Jenny company.

Featured in a new ad available for viewing in the player found above, Carey shared, ‘I’m proud of how hard I worked to get my body back. I had to do this for me. As an artist, I use my voice to entertain. But, today I want to use my voice to draw attention to a serious matter. Two-thirds of the country is placing themselves at risk for heart disease and diabetes. Largely, that is due to unhealthy eating patterns and lack of physical activity.?

?I obtained a greater understanding of this when I was pregnant with my twins and dealing with my own health issues. That’s why I feel so strongly about working with Jenny and the American Heart Association to help Americans get serious about their health as it pertains to these issues which are so important.?

What to Look for When Buying a Jewelry Watch

»Posted on Dec 27, 2011

Even while Romain Jerome happen to be perhaps the most modern jewelry watches today, there are many more options. Today’s designers are breaking, once believed rules that all watches need to look the same. So, why should the functions and features all be the same? Some older watches would even store your telephone numbers for you. The jewelry watch is the popular type of watch today. Jewelry watches can come in all shapes and sizes, like a necklace a bracelet or even a brooch. Of course Jewelry watches are very different from each other. Buying a jewelry watch isn’t a difficult process, but her is a quick guide to help you narrow your search.

Is it more important to you, that your watch is function-able or fashionable? Are you looking for a multi-function watch, or just one that tells the time? Is it important that your watch has more functions than time telling? Does your watch need to fit in with your style? These questions are essential to determine what kind of jewelry watch you will be shopping for. To save time and money while shopping it helps to have already decided what you expect from your watch. For example, if having more than one function is important to you, then a classic wrist watch dressed up is the best route to go. If your looking for a watch to go with a particular outfit, then shop for one that more resembles jewelry than a watch.

Now you can choose what materials you would like for your jewelry watch to be made from. What type of store you go to for a watch that is beaded will be different than other types of material. If you are thinking of a fancier watch, like one that incorporates precious stones like diamonds, you are better off shopping at a jeweler’s shop. Does metal on your skin bother you? Opt for something with a leather band or that fastens to your clothing. Before you start shopping it is important to decide these things. If you just start shopping you may become overwhelmed and discouraged by the many choices.

How much money do you want to spend? Not setting a budget can make for a bad shopping experience. Before you leave the house or hop online, make sure to set your budget. Your choices about the material you want your jewelry watch to be made of, and what function it needs will all determine the size of your budget. Deciding on a budget ahead of time will keep you from being tempted into spending more than you can afford. Many sales people work on commission and can sense if you haven’t set a budget. Buying jewelry watches through websites shouldn’t be hard. There is a wide variety of websites that you can use to help you find the watch that you really want the most. It is better to go slowly when you are buying things on the internet. Do some research. Look for affordable deals. You will eventually find the perfect watch at the perfect price. You even have the chance to find it for a lot lower than you would have paid for it at a regular store. Enough with the window shopping, lets relax with some play arcade games!

Lady Gaga Reveals Where She’ll Spend Christmas

»Posted on Dec 25, 2011

I’ll be eating with all my Japanese Little Monsters,’ she tells MTV News.


By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Matt Elias




Lady Gaga in Tokyo, Japan on Tuesday

Little Monsters saw how Lady Gaga celebrates Thanksgiving during her lavish TV special, and now we know where Mother Monster will spend the holiday season.



“Well I’ll be in Japan right up until Christmas day,” Gaga told MTV News earlier this month. “So I’ll be eating with all my Japanese Little Monsters. I like shabu shabu [a form of Japanese hot pot].”


On Tuesday (December 20), the singer tweeted about her trip there. “Just arrived in Tokyo!” she wrote, including a photo of herself sitting in her hotel room. “So happy to see my Kawaii Monsters! #SleepyGaga bedtime. I’m a professional napper today.”


She kicked off the gifting season with her holiday-themed pop-up store and window display, Gaga’s Workshop, at Barneys New York. She and stylist Nicola Formichetti gave fans an idea of what the pop star would want from Santa with Mother Monster-inspired products like head-shaped candles, leather jackets, her favorite books and chocolates shaped like shoes.


The singer is expected to land Stateside on December 31, just in time for the 40th annual “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve.”. She’s one of the many acts lined up for the event, including Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber, LMFAO and Florence and the Machine. The show will be anchored by “American Idol” host Ryan Seacrest, with help from Fergie and Jenny McCarthy.


The busy holiday season caps off an even busier year for Lady Gaga, who happened to be MTV News’ Top Newsmaker of 2011. She tirelessly released singles, videos, personas, a chart-topping album (Born This Way) and scooped up awards at seemingly every show from the Grammys to the VMAs. She was also our #5 Best Artist of 2011, and her disco empowerment track, “Born This Way,” boasted the #5 spot on the Best Songs of 2011 list as well.


MTV continues our Best of 2011 coverage by looking back at the biggest pop-culture stories of the year. As we count down the newsmakers that mattered to you most, also check out our Best Artists, Best Songs, Best MTV Live Performances and Best EDM Artists of 2011.
