The news hasn't been confirmed just yet due to tweeks in scheduling. Spies also reveal that there is no word on which canciones will be adding un poco of vida to the annual event.

Perhaps Vanessa and Zac will perform a tribute to HSM 3? Or maybe B will ride a Cadillac Records track? Quién sabe?! What we really want to know is if Hugh will rock his Wolverine costume on-stage! What do you think? The Oscars air live on Sunday, February 22nd. [E! Online]

Though it's easy to feel left out on El Día de los Enamorados, don't fret. This year MTV Tr3s has your back! We've put together a list of five tips to celebrate being happily unattached this Valentine's day.

Tip#1: Girls Night Out

Call up your single chicas for a girly night on the town including make overs, manicures and martinis. Why not take this special day to pamper the most important person you're in a relationship with – you! P.S. -- some snazzy nail salons offer fancy drinks too!  Once you and your girl squad are all dolled up continue the fun by dancing the night away at a club OR maybe seeing He’s Just Not That Into You, A.K.A the single gal’s bible.

Tip#2: Girls Night In

Don’t feel up to hitting the pavement? No te preocupes.  Coordinate a chicas only pajama party instead (that means no texting exes nor drunk dials). Watch tearjerkers, chow down on popcorn and chocolate and pass the chisme around por toda la noche.  Suggested topics of discussion?  Loves-gone-wrong and why-can't-i-find-a-man woes will go well with your fave pair of fat pants. Some all-time chick flick faves we recommend for the occasion are: Hitch, How to Lose A Guy in Ten Days, The Notebook and The Holiday.

The Presidential Inaugural Committee is keeping details of Beyonce's performance top secret...

The 'Sasha Fierce' diva is set to sing for Barack and Michelle Obama's primer dance on Tuesday evening. The committee's spokeswoman, Linda Douglass may be keeping her canción selection under-wraps, but we are on a mission to guess which hit Beyonce is most likely to perform.

We can definitely rule out her club-shakin' hits, including her latest sultry anthem, "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)." No doubt, we can picture Michelle getting down to it, but we can't forget about the President! We listed some tracks that might hit the mic...

1. "Crazy In Love": The summer jam is universal enough to hype-up todo el mundo. If this song selection flies, hopefully B skips on the hot-shorts and bra less tank-tops. That would be too much loco love to handle.

2. "That's Why You're Beautiful": Will she test out this new single on the crowd? It works as a poetic testament of amor. Bueno, at least between her and Jay-Z. Unless, Michelle sings along and dedicates it to Obama. Hmmm...we think there's potential in this one.

3. "At Last": The Etta James original classic would fit perfectly with the historic event. At last mi gente!

What canción do you think Beyonce should sing at the inauguration?

Don't forget to join the "Be The Change" inaugural celebration. Watch MTV Tr3s live on Tuesday, January 20th at 10 PM.

We have a special holiday gift for the ladies...

We know you are wondering how to get glam for the holidays, and we have you covered! You don't have to be as bella as Beyonce to look your best during las fiestas. The key to looking flawless is knowing how to enhance your natural beauty with a couple of simple tips. We gathered up grade-A advice from InStylist for Terra.com, Kathy Kopp. Estrellas like Shakira, Daddy Yankee, and Alicia Keys have sought after la Colombiana's expert advice and now you get to test out her skills before attending the holiday block party.

To get the perfect evening look, Kathy recommends to know your skin before applying a drop of make-up:

It's important to know what kind of skin you have. If you have oily skin, then you should avoid shimmery products because it will make your skin look super shiny. Most Latinas actually have combination skin, which is a mixture of oily and dry. In that case, it is best just to apply facial lotion on dry areas.

Once you have your face in check, then you can start creating a nice make-up base:

Besides a good powder, I think a necessary beauty piece to have in your purse is mascara. You can apply it in the morning with a little bit of gloss and you are good to go, but for an evening look, you can mix it up by adding a black eyeliner. For eyeshadows you also want to go opposite the color pallette. For example, if you  have brown eyes, using purple and pink colors will bring out your eyes more.

Kathy also warns to stay away from every chica's common mistake:

The idea is not to go for the colors that are in style, but to pick colors that will compliment your face.

Not even la bella Eva Mendes is guaranteed a seat at Barack Obama's inauguration.

Reports forecast that at least 4 million supporters are expected to attend the historic event on January 20th. Shakira and Beyonce have secured spots after being invited to perform live, but what about Eva the diva, who won't be singing the star-spangled banner? Unfortunately, she is turned-down just like most of us.

Eva recently spoke about not being able to snatch a ticket:

I thought I had some pull—I usually do, and I've been shut down. It's the hardest party to get into...We are still working on it, but I understand the whole thing.

They don't want to make it a celebrity studded event because this in an extremely crucial time in our history and in our world right now. I completely understand that. But of course, I would love to go and be there.

According to our research, tickets are ranging from $2,000 to $8,000! We are sure Eva has the bank account to make it happen. Have you tried to hold your spot at the inauguration? [Latina]

CAUTION: We may have another wannabe Latina on the loose! First we shouted-out Britney Spears with her "Mmm Papi" fetish, and now Beyonce - or her alter ego Sasha Fierce - deserves a barrio double-take.

The pop diva has flossed her sensual twang and sassy Spanish lyrics in the past. It wasn't that long ago since Beyonce sealed her prized package initiation with help from cadera shakin' estrella Shakira for "Beautiful Liar." It appears that Mrs. Fierce is coming back for más azúcar in her new album "I AM...Sasha Fierce" with an español version of "If I Were a Boy/Si Yo Fuera Un Chico." We can already here her jam playing on nuestro radios, but do you think Beyonce has taken her wannabe Latina ticket too far?

Listen to "Si Yo Fuera Un Chico" and you be the judge! Keep it locked for the all-day video premiere on Monday, November 24th.
