Anneke Ruys/WENN.com Adele, Katy, Christina Aguilera and Florence and the Machine are just some artists who are eligible to receive an Oscar nomination ahead of next year's ceremony. 'Rolling In The Deep' hitmaker Adele sung the soundtrack for the latest James Bond movie 'Skyfall', which was co-written by Adele and Paul Epworth and has been described as one of the best 007 themes in the franchise's 50-year history. Adele, Katy Perry, Christina Aguilera & More Competing For Oscar Nomination Adele's 'Skyfall' could be included in the five nominations next year (Anneke Ruys/WENN.com) The Academy Motion Pictures will now be whittling down a list of 75 candidates to just five songs from films which have been released this year, and in addition to Adele, Katy Perry is also believed to be a song contender. Katy's single 'Wide Awake' is reportedly being considered after it featured in the singer's autobiographical movie, 'Part of Me,...

There are 75 original songs that qualify for the Oscar this year, but really everyone has been waiting to hear about one. Adeles title theme to Skyfall surged to #1 on iTunes just days after debuting in October, but some feared the number by her and Paul Epworth would be ruled ineligible for the Oscar because it incorporates elements of the classic 007 theme, which of course is not original. But the music branch of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences decided it was not a significant enough problem to boot it from the potential nominees, and included it without comment in its list of songs that could collect an Oscar on Feb. 24. Depending on how the nominations go, and whether producers Neil Meron and Craig Zadan decide to include performances of this category, the ABC telecast could turn into quite an eclectic concert. The new lullaby-esque love song Suddenly from Les Miserables makes the cut, of course. And the list of eligible songs also includes Neil Finns Song of the...

Adele is facing a $1,600 fine for not registering her baby within the required 42-day deadline. She gave birth to a baby boy on October 19, but has chosen not to release his name to fans or the media yet. Us Weekly reported that it was the first child for Adele and the second for her fianc, Simon Konecki, who has a five-year-old daughter with his ex-wife Clary Fisher. Registrars have reported that neither Adele or fianc Simon Konecki have made an appointment to register their son. That means that anytime they register today and after will already be in excess of 50 days. According to The Sun , the lack of registration seems to just be an oversight on the superstars part, and not an intentional action or statement. Sources say forgetting to register is actually a very common issue. Adele can expect warning letters very soon. If a birth has not been recorded within three months, even the registrar can be fined.

Wendy Williams recently posed nude in the name of animal rights, and now she's asking another voluptuous celeb to strip down. "I would like to see Adele naked," the talk show host told The Huffington Post of the Grammy winner, 24. "As a woman of a particular size myself, there is no hating on skinny girls, but there is nothing interesting about their bodies. I think for women, curves and softness is what separates men from women. Three cheers for girls that are built like fifth grade boys, but there is something to be said for womanly women. Adele, with her gothic figure, would look great in PETA ads." RELATED: PETA's sexiest vegetarians Williams had no shame in baring it all for PETA's racy ad, and neither did her family. "My [12-year-old] son loves it, my husband couldn't be more proud, my mother and father think it's great. I was very nervous about what they would think. I know a lot of people still don't think that's me, it's...

A dele didnt release an album this Grammy cycle. Its been tough for her fans, and great for other artists. Last year Adele swept the field, going six for six. With no runaway favorite this year, the nominations for the 2013 awards ran the gamut with underdogs such as the Black Keys, Mumford & Sons and Alabama Shakes competing against pop superstars. Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys, Fun., Jay-Z, Mumford & Sons, Frank Ocean and Kanye West top the nominations with six apiece, but half a dozen other artists came in for five or four nods. Broadcast live on CBS from the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, The Grammy Nominations Concert Live!! (yes, they included two silly exclamation points) was boring. Hosts LL Cool J and Taylor Swifts banter was intolerable. From Maroon 5 to Luke Bryan to Ne-Yo, the performance were choreographed with tedious perfection the exception being Fun and Janelle Monaes anthemic We Are Young. While the show wasnt that thrilling, some of nominations were. Latel...
