By Sowmya Krishnamurthy Jay-Z and Kanye Wests’s anthemic single “N–as In Paris” started off the 2012 NBA All-Star Saturday night games with a sonic bang. Airing on TNT, the two-minute clip intersperses footage from the Kanye-helmed “Paris” video with actual basketball highlights and commentary. Grounded by “ball so hard” lyrics, it was a thumping combination. Pusha T took to Twitter and called the video a “must watch” while fans shared, “That Jay Z Kanye opening was tight” and “Ok TNT just went for broke with Jay-Z and Kanye on da intro … My GOOODNESS.” Watch the “Paris” video/NBA mash-up here Filmmaker Spike Lee and singers Chris Brown and Mary J. Blige are among the stars watching the Saturday night fun, a warm-up to tomorrow’s All-Star Game, which include the Slam Dunk Contest, Three-Point Shootout, Skills Challenge and Shooting Stars Competition. Other hip-hop celebrities have descended upon Orlando for the 61st All-Star Game too. Rick Ross and Wale headlined parties on Friday night and more star power is guaranteed throughout the weekend. Chris Brown is slated to party at the Roxy tonight while Lil Wayne and Dwight Howard will touch down at the Showalter Executive Airport and on Sunday, Drake, and R. Kelly are expected to make appearances. By Sowmya Krishnamurthy Jim Jones was arrested and maced by police following a brawl in Connecticut on Friday night (February 24) which took place at the MGM Grand at Foxwoods. Details are still premature but early reports are saying that an intoxicated casino patron accosted the rapper and Jones fought back in self defense. The instigator and Jones’ respective crews joined the scuffle and pandemonium ensued. Cops arrived and matters only got worse. TMZ acquired this bystander video footage which shows a crowd in the casino lobby and Jimmy being forcibly subdued by several cops who allegedly used mace to calm him down. Onlookers are overheard shouting sentiments of support for Jones like, “It’s that boy Jimmy” and “Yeah Jimmy!” According to the Associated Press, state police spokesman J. Paul Vance says Jimmy was charged with assault on a police officer and breach of peace and he was released after posting bond. Vance said Saturday that Jones assaulted a trooper during the fight (presumably from the aforementioned video) but Vance was not certain how the melee started. Jone was eventually released on bond. No official statements have been made by Jones’ camp but the Capo took to Twitter on Saturday evening to comment, writing, “This is gettin blown way out of proportion.” These Gucci Tan Suede Zip Boots ($695) will definitely come in handy when you need a great piece to complement your outfit. The most notable aspect of these shoes is the blue sole, which provide a nice contrast with the tan upper. How would you wear these boots? More looks below. <!–

–> Adidas followed the Chicago Bulls‘ lead and locked up star point guard Derrick Rose with what he is calling a “lifetime” deal. Sources have said Rose signed a 14-year deal worth $260 million with the three stripes. This comes just two months after he signed a contract with the Bulls for five years and $95 million. “Man, it’s a blessing,” Rose said. “It’s definitely a blessing. They’ve been with me since the beginning and stuck with me and I’m happy I’m a part of them for the rest of my life. They’ve been doing everything promotional-wise to make sure they put me out there, marketing me great all over the world. That’s all I needed from them.” His fourth signature shoe, the adizero Rose 2.5, came out in February and is marketed as the lightest basketball shoe on the market. Don’t think all of this will change his humble approach, though. “Not at all,” he said. “I know that with the way that I play and how hard I work, I know I should be fine.” [via Chicago Tribune] Follow @Complex_Sports for more news and commentary.

“The Descendants” took home a handful of awards from the Independent Spirit Awards on Saturday afternoon, but none of the winners were more enthused about the honor than first-time nominee Shailene Woodley. The “Secret Life of the American Teenager” star has been rewarded repeatedly for her emotional turn as the teenage daughter of George Clooney’s character in the Alexander Payne-directed flick, and the 20-year-old continued that trend Saturday, winning Best Supporting Actress.
Sunday night’s Academy Awards marks the last major awards show of the season for Woodley and her “Descendants” castmates. On the red carpet before the Spirit Awards, the young actress told MTV News that ending her time with her co-stars is “so bittersweet.”
“Tomorrow’s the grand finale. It’s awesome, because I’ll be able to have clean socks and do laundry for the first time in a few months, but it is sad because every single night has been this beautiful little reunion of people, and tomorrow’s the last reunion,” she explained.
At least the reunions will go out with a bang, since the entire cast, including Clooney, is expected to attend the Oscars. Even though they won’t continue to see each other on the awards circuit this year, Woodley expects she and her castmates will stay in touch.
If Clooney falls out of contact, Woodley promised, “I will track him down and say, ‘Keep teaching me, because I haven’t learned enough yet!’ ”
The actress has made quite a splash on the red carpet while doing rounds for “The Descendants,” and she said her Oscar-night dress is ready to go. Picking out the perfect outfit hasn’t been something to stress about — as she said, that’s what stylists are for.
“I do have a dress. It hasn’t been that big of a process because I know nothing about fashion,” Woodley said. “I have an awesome stylist who does know a lot about fashion, and so I’m sure she would say it’s been a big process, but for me, it’s been very simple.”

It certainly doesn’t feel like it’s been that long, but it was a year ago that “The King’s Speech” won top honors at the 83rd Annual Academy Awards.
As we head into the 2012 Oscars on Sunday, it’s an appropriate time to look back on last year’s winners that surprised, moments that shocked and snubs we’re still not quite over yet.

Oscars 2012: Last Year’s Awards-Night Headlines
In an attempt to appeal to a younger demographic, the Academy enlisted the help of Anne Hathaway and James Franco and “youth-oriented” segments including an Auto-Tuning of some of the year’s biggest movies. The result was a confusing three hours of underwhelming laughs and jokes that fell mostly flat. Afterward, blame flew both ways, but it seems unlikely that either will host again.
Leave it to a 94-year-old to show all the kids how it’s done. With more energy than the two hosts combined, Douglas won over the audiences in the Kodak Theatre and at home, overtly hitting on Hathaway and making sweeping generalizations about Australians and Brits.
Despite hanging in second behind “The Social Network” for most of the awards-season love leading up to the Oscars, “The King’s Speech” came from behind to win three of the top categories: Best Picture, Actor and Director. Colin Firth locked up his award months in advance by sweeping the earlier ceremonies, but the race for picture and director came down to Oscar night, ending with Tom Hooper’s controversial win over David Fincher.
His victory for Best Supporting Actor might not have come as a surprise, but Christian Bale’s tough-guy image was nowhere to be found. The actor sincerely thanked his wife and daughter after accepting the prize for “The Fighter.” Not only was he happy, but he even made fun of himself and his previous bouts with bad language.
In the evening’s most-apparent act of foreshadowing, Billy Crystal took the stage to honor former Oscar host Bob Hope, and the audience welcomed him with a standing ovation. It wasn’t long after that talk of bringing Crystal back to host started, setting up the Oscar night we’re now anticipating.
