Bittersweet memories are all we're taking with us after last night's Grammy Awards...well, okay, bittersweet memories and one serious scrapbook of photos from the star-studded evening. Our favorite celebs were out in droves at the music industry's biggest awards show, to celebrate some well-deserved wins, cheer each other on in pitch-perfect performances and remember the gone-too-soon Whitney Houston.

Among the gallery of great moments from the show is Taylor Swift, who stood at the summit of a country prop mountain for her amazing performance of "Mean," after getting a great introduction from The Civil Wars (and just one day before premiering their "Safe and Sound" music video right here on MTV tonight!). And that was just the start of an emotional rollercoaster of an evening; there was some serious happiness on display from Adele, who flashed a beautiful smile as she took home the awards for Best Song, Best Pop Performance and Album of the Year...and some definite sads to be had following Jennifer Hudson's heartbreaking tribute to Whitney. (What? No, we're not crying, we just have something in our eye.)

With each new publicity image released from the upcoming fairy tale re-imagining "Snow White and the Huntsman," we never know which Kristen Stewart we're going to get. Pretty? Powerful? Poised? Yes, we're kinda getting whiplash, to quote a certain young actress we know. One thing we are sure of: Today's still (released via the film's Facebook page) lands squarely in the "fierce" rather than "fair" column.

Here we see our raven-haired heroine wielding a shield in one hand and (what we assume from repeated trailer viewings) a sword in the other (that flaming pile of whatever is totally obscuring our view). Kristen's clearly got her eye on something, and we're just glad it isn't us because girl looks downright ferocious.

Every day a multitude of stars wander through the halls of MTV News to talk about their latest projects and goof around with staff members. But sometimes we catch stars elsewhere, and that's why we put together Spotted!, a daily compendium of stars in the wild.

Nina Dobrev is a baller. Literally. The "Vampire Diaries" starlet took a short vacation from Mystic Falls on Sunday to suit up for DirecTV's Celebrity Beach Bowl, a friendly flag football game which preceded the Super Bowl in Indianapolis.

The annual event typically draws a slew of celebrities and former football greats, and Nina wasn't the only "Vampire Diaries" actress in attendance. Her co-star Candice Accola (a.k.a. Caroline Forbes) hit the field for the opposing Team Spike, which also included "True Blood" hunks Joe Manganiello and Mechad Brooks, Jordin Sparks and Neil Patrick Harris.

It’s even scarier than Voldemort: Daniel Radcliffe’s first post-"Potter" film, "The Woman in Black," opens today, and we’re all pretty psyched for the dark drama. Even the spooky rhyming commercial advertisements are terrifying—there is going to be some serious watching-between-your-fingers, feet-up-on-the-chair action going on in theaters. But while Daniel may appear terrified of the "Woman in Black," we know a few women in black who are anything but frightening. We've rounded up some of our favorite celebrity fashionistas, who show us that basic black is sexy—not scary. See our entire gallery by clicking on the image below!

From Angelina Jolie’s iconic dominatrix-inspired leather ensemble to Lucy Hale and Selena Gomez’s recent playful cut outs, these starlets are conjuring up plenty of accolades. Even sparkle and fun country cutie Taylor Swift knows that when you want to go high glam, you go with black, as she did in a dramatic gown with a plunging neckline during the 2009 Grammy festivities. Then there's perennial red-carpet darling Lea Michele, who may be known for her bold fashion choices but couldn't resist the lure of becoming a woman in black when she slipped on a lace design with a sheer overlay, perfectly modeling a Karl Lagerfeld number during Paris Fashion Week—so incredibly chic.

This one is for all of our fellow Matthew Lewis (a.k.a. Neville Longbottom) fans—those who have been on board since the beginning after being drawn in by Matthew's roly poly adorableness at age 12 in "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone," and those who jumped on the bandwagon in a big way after seeing photos of Matthew all grown-up at last year's premiere of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2."

We've lost count of the number of "Matt Lewis Is A Total Hottie"-themed fan pages that have been created since, but we're doing our part as well. MTV News was lucky enough to get our hands and eyes on a batch of brand new photos of the one-time Hump Day Hottie looking very grown-up and smoldery.

The photos were taken by acclaimed London-based photographer Idil Sukan, who was the official photographer for the British Independent Film Awards and has shot a slew of popular British stars, like The Wanted and Rebecca Ferguson. Just look at how serious and stylish the 22-year-old is! So thoughtful and focused, it's like he's staring into our souls. Or thinking really hard about something important like world peace or saving kittens.

This morning, the internet fairy brought us the best gift ever: some sneak-peek pics of Ryan Kwanten's upcoming appearance on "New Girl"! And if you've been missing Ryan's glistening pecs adorable face in these long, cold months without "True Blood," then take note: Fox released a whopping 10 (TEN!) delicious stills from the show, which depict the actor in various stages of flirtation with Zooey Deschanel.

The bad news: He's wearing clothes in all of them. (Boo!)
The good news: There's not a T-shirt in the universe that could hide the glory of those beautiful biceps. (YAY.)

Every day a multitude of stars wander through the halls of MTV News to talk about their latest projects and goof around with staff members. But sometimes we catch stars elsewhere, and that's why we put together Spotted!, a daily compendium of stars in the wild.

Production might be just about wrapped on "Snow White and the Huntsman," but the stars of the gothic fairytale flick aren't done spending time together yet! After battling each other in character for honor, justice, and fairest-of-them-all beauty queen status for the better part of the past year, Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart were recently spotted sans their complex costumes and chilling alongside leading man Chris Hemsworth in Los Angeles.

The actors took turns peering and pointing at some mysterious-but-clearly-attention-grabbing thing—most likely some just-taken shots of their fabulous selves, since the trio are all together again for a photoshoot to promote the film (and no doubt gearing up for a whirlwind four months of publicity for what's definitely one of the most-anticipated movies of the year). Too bad there's no subtitle on this shot; we'd love to know what Chris is saying to his costars.

"Hunger Games" star Jennifer Lawrence presided over a reaping of a different sort this morning, teaming with Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences president Tom Sherak to name the 2012 Oscar nominees. Sporting bronze locks and a periwinkle bib dress, the "Winter's Bone" Oscar nominee gamely took the stage at 5:30 a.m. (how many lattes did she down to look that cheerful?!), to read off the esteemed list (all the while flaunting a mean French accent for those "The Artist" nominees).

Following the ceremony, E! News caught up with the actress to ask what her plans were for the big night. Turns out, Jen doesn't even plan on attending! Which is a total shame considering we were dying to see what she'd pull out of her closet to one-up that va-va-va-voom Calvin Klein number from last year.

If things seem a little empty around here, it's because MTV News has left the building.. and arrived at the Sundance Film Festival to hob, nob and generally get acquainted with this year's best under-the-radar and indie flicks. And like all good friends on vacation, we've got a great set of picture-postcards to say "Wish you were here!" with our flipbook of celeb sightings from industry talks and premieres alike.

Among the folks you can spy in our gallery: Emma Roberts, whose performance in "Celeste and Jesse Forever" has everyone anxious to see the film, and Ryan Kwanten, who popped up in the T-Mobile Google Music Village and happily took photos with a fan or two. Elizabeth Olsen was spotted at the premiere of her new movie "Red Lights"—making her an established darling of the indie circuit after her buzzworthy attendance at Cannes—with a bulky jacket and bundled scarf to keep out the chill. And also in attendance: Taylor Swift! The singer popped up at the "Ethel" premiere thanks to her new friendship with filmmaker Rory Kennedy, and the two were photographed together at a dinner and discussion event later that evening.

Who says Mystic Falls is all doom and gloom? Look at the smiles on those faces! In anticipation of tonight's new "Vampire Diaries" episode, Hollywood Crush snagged a pair of EXCLUSIVE behind-the-scenes stills from "The Ties That Bind," featuring stars Nina Dobrev and Kat Graham.

This is a pivotal episode for Kat's witchy alter ego Bonnie as she reunites with her mom (played by guest star Persia White) for the first time in 15 years! Continually plagued by dreams of Klaus' coffins, Bonnie thinks the nightmares hold clues to killing the Original. They also inspire a visit to her mother, who's been keeping secrets of her own. Meanwhile, Damon becomes intrigued by Alaric's new lady friend Dr. Fell (played by Paul Wesley's real-life wife, "Pretty Little Liars" actress Torrey DeVitto) and Klaus continues to negotiate with Stefan for the coffins in question.
