In her heartfelt speech, Shenae Grimes talked how much her personal life has changed since the first episode of the reboot.

Katy Perry took our breath away at the Hammer Gala on Saturday!

The Part of Me songstress took the stage in a glittering confection of fabulousness aka an Elie Saab gown as she serenaded the audience with her sugary sweet pop songs.

The not so naked chef known as Jamie Oliver is hoping to get Los Angeles residents eating healthy with a new community kitchen.

Jamie's Kitchen, located in Westwood, offers free cooking classes and will be used as a filming location for the second season of Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution.
