Lady Gaga and Kings of Leon have been nominated for five MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs).

The singer and the band will both compete for Best Song, for 'Poker Face' and 'Use Somebody' respectively, Best Live Act and Best World Stage Performance, with Gaga also nominated for Best Female and Best New Act, while Kings of Leon are also up for the Best Group and Best Rock prizes.

Ciara tried to lose weight on a cayenne pepper diet. The "Love Sex Magic" singer attempted to follow in the footsteps of Beyonce Knowles by cutting out fatty foods and consuming only liquids.

However, the drastic regime proved too much to maintain and Ciara was soon missing her favorite meals.

Ciara says it is Justin Timberlake's responsibility to make sure Michael Jackson's memory lives on.

The "Love Sex Magic" singer insists it is down to stars of her generation - including the "SexyBack" hitmaker, who has copied many of Jackson's trademark dance moves - to embrace the musical legacy of the pop icon, who died of a suspected cardiac arrest last month.
