Today was an extra-special edition of Live From E!, because it's Marc Malkin's birthday! He was joined by Catt Sadler and Melanie Bromley to discuss the surprises and snubs from this morning's Oscar noms.

Do you think Jamie Foxx, Leonardo DiCaprio and Quentin Tarantino were overlooked for their work on Django Unchained, or is a Best Picture nomination sufficient for the controversial flick?   

In TV news, rumors are swirling about whether or not Britney Spears will be back on The X Factor next year. Find out what it would cost the show to keep BritBrit and why some are saying Simon might have given her the axe.

Also, Justin Timberlake tweeted a cryptic message last night implying that he had a big announcement this morning—so what was it? Basically, he's ready to make more music. Are you excited that he'll be back in the studio, or should the former boy-bander leave his singing career behind him?

Speaking of singers, Taylor Swift showed up at the People's Choice Awards yesterday wearing a really revealing dress! Maybe it was to send a message to Harry Styles—or maybe she just decided it was time to debut a more mature look—but the timing was awfully suspicious!
