And then there were four!
Ladies and gentlemen, we are in the home stretch of the $25,000 E! Celeb of the Year tournament and the competition is scorching.

This round found Kristen Stewart handily dispatching Lady Gaga, Kate Middleton whipping Demi Lovato, Robert Pattinson trouncing Justin Bieber by a 3 to 1 margin and Britney Spears dumping Drake in similar fashion. Some serious beatdowns.
Our Leading Ladies, Newsmakers, Leading Men, Hitmakers and Wild Card winners have all boiled down to this: Only the four hottest celebs remain!

Baby bumps are always in style, but this year seemed to feature more A-listers getting knocked up than ever.
Not that any of these stars skipped a beat—or bought flats—when announcing their happy news. In fact, showing off the bun in the oven while strutting in stilettos and stylish maternity wear seemed to be a hallmark of having a kid in Hollywood this year.
As we celebrate the Best of 2011, consider these babes in utero (and their amazing mommies) some of our favorite showbiz productions!

Best of 2011: Top 10 TV Comedies of the Year!
Fox, CBS, ABC, NBC
The results are in! And we gotta say, we really like the list you guys created by voting in our Top TV Comedies of 2011 poll.
Two freshman series made the list, and even though some comedies were snubbed by SAG and Golden Globes recently, they certainly made our list. And that, we think, is a much higher honor.

The results are in! Last week we asked you who you wanted back in our $25,000 E! Celeb of the Year tournament. Did you favorite get knocked out? Were they not even in the running to begin with?
The choice was yours and we opened up a Wild Card round where you could tweet your pick for who got brought back in (or introduced) to the tourney. The eight celebs above are still fighting it out in their brackets. So who are the four who were brought back in (or introduced) to the fold for a chance at the most prestigious title of the year?

Best of 2011: Top 10 Fresh Faces

Some may look familiar and others foreign, but one thing all these stars have in common is one heckuva breakout year.
A lot of these celebs have worked their tushies off in 2011, often on multiple (and for some we mean, like, four) projects at a time. And oddly enough, a lot of our top fresh faces have already shared credits with Tinseltown's big names. (Mainly Brad Pitt. You'll see.)
Maybe next year, a couple of these actors will be featured in our gigantic Celeb of the Year bracket. One could only hope...
But for now, let's take a look at our Best of 2011 list!
