Justin Bieber answered our questions in the Press Room and even gave us a quick hug on the way to the H & M gift lounge!

Orianthi was flattered when we told her we love her song "According to You" and was excited to pose for a pic with M editor, Lauren!

When we asked Allison Iraheta for a photo with the mag, she answered, "Sure, dude!" and was ready to strike a pose!

Justin Bieber brought a lucky girl on stage and serenaded her in front the whole stadium! He even gave her a bouquet of beautiful roses! Aww!

Last but definitely not least, Taylor Swift ended the show with a rockin' performance!

Let's dish:

Hey M Girls!

We have a BRAND NEW celeb advice column on mmm-mag.com. Each day at 8:00 PM/EST we'll post a reader question and have a different star answer it!! Today, we have Allison Iraheta talking getting over stage fright!

M Reader ILuvMusic asked:
I'm a really nervous and shy girl but I love to sing. I just can't perform in front of people. I got a new guitar a few months ago but barely play it in front of my parents. I want to be able to perform in front of my friends and family because I love to sing. How can I get over my shyness?

And Allison's answer is:
"Just go for it and have fun! I mean, obviously you're going to be nervous but you can take that nervousness and use it to help give you a boost! That's what I use my fright for. You'll be scared but once you're up there it's not so bad. I try to totally black everything out when I'm on stage and just have fun!"

Don't forget to check back here tomorrow for more celeb advice. And if

Hey M girls!

This weekend, Allison sang her heart out on stage during the American Idol summer tour! Allison's performance definitely rocked, but what do you think about her cropped denim jacket? Is this a trend you'd wear on a breezy summer night?

Let's dish:
-Do you like this look?

Hey M girls!

We're super-obsessed with American Idol around here, and we can't wait for tonight's show. This afternoon we caught up with Allison (love her!) and found out behind-the-scenes AI deets. Didja know Allison has been writing in a journal about her entire experience? When we asked if she showed it to anyone in her fam, Allison told us, "No, no one has read it." She'll have lots more pages to fill when she hits the road this summer for the American Idol tour! If you want to see Allison, Kris, Adam, and your other faves, go to www.americanidol.com for tix!

Psst -- Allison's a big fan of all three guys still left in the competition, so she can't pick one to go home tonight!

Let's dish:
-Who do you think is going home tonight?
