Kings of Leon bassist Jared Followill married his model girlfriend Martha Patterson in Charlotte, Tennessee yesterday after a five month engagement.

Aaaaand she’s a model. SHOCKER!   Just kidding, she’s totally adorable and we give her two enthusiastic thumbs up.

The 25-year-old KOL member took to his Twitter to share his feelings about the big day.

Today, I get married. It’s the biggest step I’ve ever taken… I’ve dreamed about this day since I was a little girl.

Well played Jared.  We totally LOL-ed at that one.

According to sources close to the couple, Jared and Martha we destined to be together.

He is crazy about her… He dated around before, but he knows he picked the perfect woman to settle down with.

Congrats to the happy couple!  And might we add finally!  Jared is the fourth and final KOL member to tie the knot.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year… Awards Season!!!

That’s right ladies and gentlemen, the 2012 Grammy nominations are in and we’ve got them for you, along with our predictions of who will be taking home the gilded gramophones!

Album Of The Year:

Adele, “21”

Foo Fighters, “Wasting Light”

Lady Gaga, “Born This Way”

Bruno Mars, “Doo-Wops and Hooligans”

Rihanna, “Loud”

GossipTeen Pick:  Adele should get the nod on this one, but I have a sneaking suspicion that Gaga will be walking away the winner of AOY.

Record Of The Year:

Adele, “Rolling in the Deep”

Bon Iver, “Holocene”

Bruno Mars, “Grenade”

Mumford & Sons, “The Cave”

Katy Perry, “Firework”

GossipTeen Pick:  SUCH a tough call.  For me, it’s a toss up between Bon Iver’s “Holocene” and Mumford & Sons’ ”The Cave”, but with “Rolling in the Deep’s” huge radio success, Adele  will most likely be the victor for ROY.

Song Of The Year:

“All Of The Lights” — Jeff Bhasker, Malik Jones, Warren Trotter & Kanye West, songwriters. (Kanye West, Rihanna, Kid Cudi & Fergie)

“The Cave” — Ted Dwane, Ben Lovett, Marcus Mumford & Country Winston, songwriters (Mumford & Sons)

“Grenade” — Brody Brown, Claude Kelly, Philip Lawrence, Ari Levine, Bruno Mars & Andrew Wyatt, songwriters (Bruno Mars)

“Holocene” — Justin Vernon, songwriter (Bon Iver)

“Rolling In The Deep” — Adele Adkins & Paul Epworth, songwriters (Adele)

GossipTeen Pick: Again, a tough call here, but I think “All of the Lights” will emerge victorious.

Best New Artist:

The Band Perry

Bon Iver

J. Cole

Nicki Minaj

Skrillex

GossipTeen Pick: If we’re going on outright success, this award should go to Nicki Minaj.  The girl is everywhere and has created an incredible brand for herself.

Pop Vocal Album:

“21,” Adele

“The Lady Killer,” Cee Lo Green

“Born This Way,” Lady Gaga

“Doo-Wops & Hooligans,” Bruno Mars

“Loud,” Rihanna.

GossipTeen Pick:  Personally, I love ALL of these albums and if it were up to me, I’d give the award to Bruno Mars, just because I love, love, love his sound, BUT my prediction is that the gramophone will go to “Born This Way”.

Rock Album:

“Rock ‘n’ Roll Party Honoring Les Paul,” Jeff Beck

“Wasting Light,” Foo Fighters

“Come Around Sundown,” Kings of Leon

“I’m With You,” Red Hot Chili Peppers

“The Whole Love,” Wilco.

GossipTeen Pick:  I’m not overwhelmed by the rock category this year.  If I had to choose, which I do for the sake of this post, I’d go with Jeff Beck’s ”Rock ‘n’ Roll Party Honoring Les Paul”, just because he’s reDICULOUSLY talented – but truthfully, none of the nominees blew me away this go-around.

R&B Album:

“F.A.M.E.,” Chris Brown

“Second Chance,” El DeBarge

“Love Letter,” R. Kelly

“Pieces of Me,” Ledisi

“Kelly,” Kelly Price.

GossipTeen Pick:  All I can say, is that if Chris Brown wins, I quit life.  But seriously, the nod should go to Kelly Price for “Kelly”.

Rap Album:

“Watch the Throne,” Jay-Z and Kanye West

“Tha Carter IV,” Lil Wayne

“Lasers,” Lupe Fiasco

“Pink Friday,” Nicki Minaj

“My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy,” Kanye West.

GossipTeen Pick: It’s either going to be “Watch the Throne” or “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy”.  Either way Kanye West comes out a winner, so his ego should be about the size of mainland China by the end of the night.

Country Album:

“My Kinda Party,” Jason Aldean

“Chief,” Eric Church

“Own the Night,” Lady Antebellum

“Red River Blue,” Blake Shelton

“Here for a Good Time,” George Strait

“Speak Now,” Taylor Swift.

GossipTeen Pick:  Again, totally underwhelmed by the nominees this year for Country Album of the Year.  The safe pick would be to go with Taylor Swift, but hopefully Lady Antebellum’s “Own the Night” will walk away a winner.

The 2012 Grammy Awards air on CBS on February 12, 2012.

Nick Jonas & The Administration started their tour off in Dallas at the House Of Blues Saturday night. Chelsea Hobbs, Selena Gomez, brothers Joe and Kevin and new sister-in-law Danielle were all on hand to show their support as he and his band kicked off the tour supporting their debut effort. The band did a great cover of Owl City’s ‘Fireflies’ and Kings Of Leon ‘Use Somebody.’ Nick and the band are in Dallas on Sunday night and Nashville on Monday 1/4/10.

Anyone going to check out Nick?

Vanessa Hudgens was in Vancouver training for her new film Sucker Punch and heading to her hotel when she was snapped by the waiting paparazzi. The actress looked very upbeat considering she has been hit with a ton of rumours (engagement to Zac Efron is confirmed by publicists as NOT happening) a dismal opening of her new movie Bandslam (didn’t even crack the top 10 for opening week) her nude pictures hitting the internet again (and promptly being removed by legal threats.)

Sterling Knight who was in 17 Again with Efron, (and photographed with Hudgens) was hanging out with the couple and he went to the Kings of Leon show with the High School Musical stars.

That KOL show must have been great: tons of Disney stars and the Twilight/New Moon/Eclipse cast and to see Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson together publicly confiriming the year long gossip of their romance.

Confirmation for the final music list is still probably a month or two away, but that hasn’t stopped the rumour mill from working overtime. Which artists are making the fall’s hottest soundtrack?

MTV.com has this to say about Lee Safar’s possible inclusion:

The Facebook pages of both Lee and “Twilight” make reference to the possible inclusion of Lee’s song, “I’m Here,” on the soundtrack. Lee describes her sound as “Evanescence meets Sarah McLachlan,”

Check out Safar’s MySpace page to hear ‘I’m Here.’

EntertainmentWeekly is listing Thom Yorke of Radiohead as a possible songwriter and maybe even super hot band Kings Of Leon.

Other artists thrown around are Madonna, The Jonas Brothers, Kelly Clarkson, and Coldplay. One of the only things certain is that Paramore is out. October 6th is the official release date for the movie music so it won’t be long before the final cuts are made. I gotta say it would be sooo sweet if Thom Yorke did something for New Moon.
