"Idol" Finalists Perform Rock Hits

The top four "American Idol" contestants vied for the final three spots tonight, performing classic rock songs and pairing up for duets.

Adam Lambert, wearing a leather jacket and showing more than a little chest, kicked the night off with the first Led Zeppelin song performed on "Idol," MTV News reports. Kara DioGuardi raved that he was "more than a rock star, you're a rock GOD!" The Twitterverse agreed, as "Adam Lambert" was the number one trending topic shortly after the show.

1. 
   heathershannon loved Adam Lambert's version of Whole Lotta Love by Zeppelin...he rocks!
2. 
   mariskavh Adam Lambert was awesome tonight!!
3. 
   vampjenn Adam Lambert singing a whole lot of love, was amazing!
4. 
   nneeiikkaa Adam lambert killed it tonight, holy f***ing sh**.

17-year-old Allison Iraheta channeled Janis Joplin with the iconic "Cry Baby," and also rocked a new long hairdo courtesy of Lambert's hair stylist. Simon Cowell commended Iraheta on her growth, but said she "tried too hard to sound like the original." Twitterers responded lukewarmly.

   bethanyrayle Although I didn't think Allison was as good as she could have been this week and it wouldn't surprise me if she's sent home instead...
2. 
   JewieJewjew Voting for Allison via text. At least maybe she can come in second.
3. 
   vampjenn Allison iraheta has a great voice but she wont win. im getting a little bored of her
   

Danny Gokey and Kris Allen were the first pair to sing a duet, performing Styx's "Renegade." Randy Jackson said they "complemented each other greatly," while Cowell simply said, "Danny, you were better than Kris." Twitter users agreed that tonight was not Allen's night, with mixed reviews on his solo performance of "Come Together" by the Beatles.

   damndavestfu Kris Allen is the man but he sucked tonight
2. 
   Born_4_Broadway Goodbye, Kris Allen. (probably)
3. 
   BeachBloom think Kris Allen is going home on American Idol
4. 
   mapex_drummer @melissxo I voted a ton for Kris Allen. I didn't think it was bad either, I actually liked it.

Gokey sang (and screamed) Aerosmith's "Dream On." Although the judges weren't huge fans of Gokey's venture into a new genre, Cowell still said that he believed Gokey would be safe. Tonight's tweets didn't seem to agree, however.

1. 
   delanae Something about Danny Gokey that bothered me from the start. He may be a great guy / good singer, but he's no Adam Lambert!
2. 
   XavRub Just listened to Danny Gokey's performance on Idol and now my ears are bleeding.
3. 
   eriiclopez "he broke his back thats why hes screaming !!!" -lexy's dad about danny gokey's performance! hahah.

The show ended on a high note with Lambert and Iraheta's duet, rocking out Foghat's "Slowride." Cowell enthused that the two rockers were the duet-off champs, and the Twitterverse agreed, raving about the performance.

1. 
   irgth Voted for Adam. Hoping for Adam/Allison finale. Dissapointed that ITunes doesn't get the Adam/Allison duet. #idol
2.

A-List Stars Attend Met Costume Gala

Justin Timberlake, Victoria Beckham, and Katy Perry were among the many stars that attended the annual Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Benefit in New York last night, PEOPLE reports. Celebs donned their most extravagant fashions for the "Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion"-themed event.

Rihanna stepped out for the first official time since her February domestic violence incident with Chris Brown in a daring tuxedo-inspired Dolce & Gabbana ensemble, drawing raves from Twitterers:

1. 
   mrswindycity Rihanna at the Costume Institute Gala...I loved it: I think Rihanna was appropriate and stunning.
2. 
   xoPearl OMG!...only Rihanna could pull this one...http://tinyurl.com/df2r6g (FIERCE!)

   alishadsc ok rihanna's ENTIRE style has officially been inspired by prince
4. 
   klucassm @DoubleXMag Rihanna was HOT in that tux. Amazingly so. She's donned weirdo outfits and genderf*cky stuff before so it isn't out of the blue.

The Twitterverse wasn't as keen on Madonna's Louis Vuitton mini-dress and pointy headpiece:

1. 
   Modern_Domestic Not digging a lot of the "looks" in the Times Met Gala photos. Esp. Madonna, Katy Perry & Brooke Shields:
2. 
   judithsthoughts @BruinBrian seriously. ugh. i hope lady gaga doesnt feel like her pantless fashion has now been vindicated by madonna.
3. 
   opethestylist @Parmie Madonna was thinking that she was one of the models on the runway. She went a bit too far but it made for interesting fashion. ;-D
4. 
   ZSylvester http://twitpic.com/4m5sr Madonna was a hot mess at the Costume Institute Gala...eeeek!!

Elizabeth Edwards Breaks Silence to Oprah

Elizabeth Edwards, wife of former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, spoke candidly about her life, health and the state of her marriage in a TV interview to air on The Oprah Winfrey Show Thursday, according to People.com.

Edwards, whose new memoir entitled "Resilience" will be published next week, told Winfrey that her marriage is a "day-by-day thing" since learning of her husband's extra-marital affair in 2006.

There has been speculation about whether John Edwards fathered a child with the other woman, Rielle Hunter, but Elizabeth says she has no idea if that is true. "I've seen a picture of the baby...It doesn't look like my children, but I don't have any idea," she says.

When asked whether she is still in love with her husband, Edwards replied, "you know, that's a complicated question."

Twitterers don't think the issue is complicated at all:
