FOB received a small name-check or two in MTV Buzzworthy's backstage at the VMAs blog - and a pic.

10:28 p.m. ET — In the talent holding area, all eyes are glued to the big show, playing on a nearby flatscreen. Awhile back, Paramore’s Farro brothers watched the Jonas Brothers‘ performance intently, heads in hands, like a couple of awestruck toddlers. Across the room, Kid Rock’s drummer, Stefanie Eulinberg, was watching too, though she wasn’t exactly awestruck by what she saw. “They look like the Wiggles,” she laughed to no one in particular, before leaning way back in her chair. Things aren’t nearly as laidback in Studio 16, where the main show rolls on. As a tech crew hustled in Paramore’s “Whisky a Go-Go” set, Pete Wentz was nearly crushed, forced to take cover behind a velvet curtain. “I have no idea what’s happening right now,” he said, eyes wide. “You can be killed at any minute if you’re not careful.”

7:47 p.m. ET — Speidi spotting! Spencer actually looked quite polished in pinstripes. He had a happy looking Heidi at his side in a ’70s era off-the-shoulder glittery black minidress and studded black boots. The power couple already gets my vote for glammest couple of the night. Ooh, here comes Pete Wentz, who just gave them both a hug, and Spencer fixed Pete’s Amish guy tie. Its like an MTV family reunion

7:23 p.m. ET — The Cab frontman Alex DeLeon appears super blown away by the star power of Taylor Swift. “We were behind her and all the photographers were like ‘AAAAH!’ ” he laughed. “And then when we rolled up, they were like ‘Eh.’ ” No matter, though. “Last year we just hung out in Fall Out Boy’s suite. This year we get to see Kanye perform. Plus no one knows who we are, so I can get drunk!”

The Who Deliver Big at Rock Honors Tribute Featuring Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters


(Patrick is not featured in this video.)

Everything about the Who has always been extra-large: sounds, ideas, personality, explosions. Paying tribute to all that isn’t easy, but the VH1 Rock Honors: The Who concert on Saturday in Los Angeles captured a bit of that legacy in a night of stirring Who songs performed by Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, Flaming Lips, Incubus, Tenacious D and the veteran band itself, delivering songs with all the power and intelligence fans have come to know.

On a stage painted the Union Jack colors of red, white and blue in UCLA’s Pauley Pavilion, the two-hour concert was split between a rousing show-closing performance by the Who and some painfully brief sets by the night’s younger generation of rockers. The concert (to be broadcast Thursday on VH1) began with a series of taped testimonials from rockers young and old, from Slash, Sting and the Clash’s Mick Jones to Coldplay and Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy, but then it was quickly on to the live music.

Pete Wentz: Rockin' Out

Pete Wentz definitely gives rock star a whole new meaning.

At the NME Awards USA in L.A. Wednesday night, the Fall Out Boy frontman sported a T-shirt with the words "Coltan Is a Conflict Diamond" as a way of expressing his opposition toward the selling of diamonds for the purpose of financing illegal military groups.

And Pete clearly practices what he preaches, telling People magazine at the event that the engagement ring he presented to Ashlee Simpson "is not a conflict diamond."

We can only assume it wasn't a cubic zirconia either.
