WHILE Snoop Dogg had his own private room at the Hilton for the MTV Music Awards, one artist who is much bigger around the world wouldn't have a bar of such behaviour.Englishman James Blunt was still at the hotel after-party at 5am, out on the balcony of the bar chatting to the locals.

It was funny to see a parade of Aussie gals walking past trying to catch his eye, but he wouldn't have any of it -- preferring to chat to the lads.

Smooth sailing

GETTING a cab from Homebush into the centre of Sydney is always difficult, but Russell Crowe had the right idea.
He had a chartered boat and headed straight for it after the awards wrapped up.

In the beginning

THE Veronicas have a huge fan base, judging by the crowd's reaction on Wednesday night.

So where did the identical twins get their start?

The Brisbane girls were in a group called the Yabba Dabba Doo Young Entertainers with Courtney Act, who then was mainly known as Shane Jenek.

Next big thing

SHANNON Noll had a huge night after winning the MTV award for Best Male Artist.

Noll, with pregnant wife Rochelle, who took Bec Hewitt's lead at last year's Logies and was dressed in a Lisa Ho number, had a room at the Hilton.

"I can't wait for it all to happen," he said about the baby.

Where was Guy?

AS usual, the red carpet at the SuperDome was a sea of Australian Idol alumni, with the notable exception of Guy Sebastian.

Paulini revealed that she would be touring in June, but didn't give any details.

However, The Eye has discovered that a diva tour is planned, featuring Paulini and other female Idols, including Kate DeAraugo and Emily Williams.
