Taylor Swift, Pink and More Close Out the iHeartRadio Music Festival

Las Vegas got a megadose of star power during Saturday night's iHeartRadio Music Festival.

Las Vegas got a megadose of star power during Saturday night's iHeartRadio Music Festival. Rihanna, No Doubt and Lil Wayne kept the crowd on their feet during the first night of the iHeartRadio Music Festival, and then on Saturday night, Taylor Swift, Pink, Enrique Iglesias and more were given the same task. The evening got started with a high-energy set from Pink, who performed acrobatic stunts and belted out hits like "Raise Your Glass," "Just Like a Pill," and her latest single, "Blow Me (One Last Kiss)."

Taylor Swift brought an element of sparkle to the show, stepping out in a sequin top and later changing into an equally glittery dress. She sang her chart-topping hit "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" and broke out her guitar for fan favorites "You Belong With Me" and "Mean." There were also a ton of surprises sprinkled throughout the four-hour block of music. The Vampire Diaries stars Nina Dobrev introduced Taylor while Prince joined Mary J. Blige for a duet. Country star Brad Paisley, rapper Pitbull, and Aerosmith also joined in the fun and put on wild shows for the crowd.

Trend Alert: Bowl-Cut Fringes As Seen on Mary, Jen and Mena

A few years back, it seemed that bowl haircuts were about to make a comeback.

A few years back, it seemed that bowl haircuts were about to make a comeback. And while the trend never seemed to take off, perhaps bowl cut-style bangs are the next best thing. Recently, this look has been seen on the likes of Mary J. Blige, Jennifer Love Hewitt and Mena Suvari. Shorter and straight in middle and longer on the ends, call the look a blunt bang/bowl bang hybrid, if you will. But most importantly, will you be knocking on the door of this trend?

Trend 2: Tickled Pink

On Monday we'll be putting on our gowns and gloss again as we cover the 2011 Grammy Awards. Yep, awards season continues with the Grammys and this year it's set to be BIG with Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Leona Lewis and Selena Gomez all strutting their stuff on the red carpet. But before all that, we thought we'd flashback to last year's ceremony and talk trends.

(Obviously, Lady Gaga managed to wear almost all of them.) Ch, ch, check it out now!
