Taylor Swift’s Faces to Watch

05/20/2013 at 06:15 PM EDT

If a picture’s worth a thousand words, just how much can we infer from these GIFs of Taylor Swift?

The Red singer, who took home eight trophies at Sunday’s Billboard Music Awards, has become synonymous with the surprised expression she routinely makes while accepting her accolades at the podium – even showing off the signature look of shock during her May 14 cameo on New Girl.

But it turns out awestruck is just one of the many emotions Swift can display when she lets her face do the talking. Read on for more:

At Sunday’s ceremony, Swift also managed to slyly steal the show from pals Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber when she inadvertently weighed in on their reunion. When the reconciled couple snuck a kiss backstage, the country star just happened to pass by – and show her discomfort at their P.D.A.

She may have kicked off February’s Grammy Awards with a carnival-themed rendition of “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” but Swift put on her best show from her seat in the audience, where she happily sung and danced along to the ceremony’s other performers.

Practice makes perfect? More than three years after she was surprised onstage by Kanye West at the MTV Video Music Awards, Swift got a chance to fight back when presenter Oliva Munn did the same during January’s People’s Choice Awards, briefly refusing to give up the podium or the trophy. “This always happens,” Swift quipped, while stealing her award back.

Seven-time Grammy Award-winner Alanis Morissette was photographed with her 2-year-old son Ever in Hawaii on Saturday (May 4). Sporting a bikini that read “Self Love,” the You Oughta Know singer enjoyed the sand and surf with her sweet toddler.

It seems Alanis and family are celebrating her hubby, rapper Mario “MC Souleye” Treadway’s birthday.

“Happy birthday to my angel husband,” Alanis tweeted Friday. “xooxoxox @Souleye I love you honey.”

We last spotted the family-of-three in September, 2012.

Brad Paisley Joins Connie Britton for Nashville Finale

People Exclusive

05/01/2013 at 03:10 PM EDT

A real-life country star is coming to Nashville.

Brad Paisley will make a special guest appearance as himself on the season finale of the ABC drama – and PEOPLE has the first photos from the set.

The Grammy winner, 40, will perform with Connie Britton and Charles Esten’s characters, Rayna and Deacon, at the CMA Awards during the episode, which airs May 22.

The appearance isn’t just another gig for Paisley – it’s a family affair. His wife, Kimberly Williams-Paisley, is a regular on the series, playing the mistress of Rayna’s soon-to-be ex-husband Teddy.

The “Accidental Racist” singer is the first high-profile non-fictional musician to perform on the show, which producers have long insisted would not be a forum for regular cameos by country stars – although it has featured plenty of lower-profile musicians.

“We’re focused on our cast of real country artists – it’s not a guest show; the fabric of Nashville is the fabric of our show,” R.J. Cutler said in January. “The musicians in the pilot are real Nashville musicians who are greatly respected there and known and known by country music people there.”

Trisha Yearwood: I’m in the Best Shape of My Life

04/20/2013 at 01:05 PM EDT

When she learned her husband, Garth Brooks, would be singing at the April 7 Academy of Country Music Awards alongside his hero George Strait, Trisha Yearwood began searching for “arm candy” attire to wear to the Las Vegas event.

That’s when she spied that dress – a formfitting Stella McCartney column that she’d first admired on Kate Winslet in 2011. “I’d been working hard and losing inches, but I wondered, ‘Can I fit into that?’” Yearwood recalls. The answer was a jaw-dropping yes. “It was tight!” says Yearwood, but “I felt confident. It was a wow dress.”

Not to mention a wow moment for the Grammy-winning star, 48, who lost an astounding 30 lbs. from her 5’9″ frame in the last four months.

“My butt and my waist are smaller, and I like seeing that in the mirror!” says Yearwood. “But I also feel great.” So good, in fact, that on her flight back to the home near Tulsa she shares with Brooks, 51, “we got on the plane, the sweats were on, and I had an In-N-Out burger with fries and two dark chocolate Reese’s cups!” she says.

In years past, she adds, “if I did that, I would have said, ‘You just screwed up, so might as well go out and have 20 cheeseburgers,’ and I would. [This time] I got on my treadmill the next day, I ate well and I didn’t do any damage. That’s what real people do.”
