Jennifer Lopez stepped out in this flashy Lanvin dress to announce her upcoming tour with Enrique Iglesias. The sleek pink, black and beige number hugged her famous figure in all the right places -- and so did that jewel-encrusted snake! Earlier this year, actress Emma Stone wore the same designer duds to W Magazine's Golden Globes party. While Emma let her hair loose and focused more on her smoldering eye makeup, J.Lo pulled her locks back into a ponytail and piled on the baubles, while keeping her face fresh.

Even though Ed Sheeran can pull off the odd rap or beatbox, don't expect him to ever become a full-time hip-hop artist.

"I never want to be a rapper," Sheeran tells AOL Music Blog. "I'm influenced by hip-hop and I guess, somewhere down the line, there might be a song that's more hip-hop than anything else I've done, but I just want to be the chubby ginger kid with the acoustic guitar who occasionally raps.

"I also wouldn't pride myself on being a beatboxer."

The British singer-songwriter admittedly does draw inspiration from a lot of hip-hop artists when writing his own music, though. Sheeran says that listening to rappers is "more interesting to listen to because they fit more lyrics into it than singer-songwriters."

Joe Jonas Bike Stolen: Jonas Brother Reveals New York City Theft

Joe Jonas Bike Stolen Gino DePinto, AOL

Even celebrities aren't immune to the crazy streets of New York! Joe Jonas recently revealed that a routine shopping trip in the Big Apple turned sour when his preferred mode of transportation, his bicycle, was stolen.

"I have a place on Bleecker and Bowery," the 22 year old told Us of his new NYC digs. "It's a great area, there is so much stuff to do. New York City is awesome. It's such an alive city, there is always so much going on, it just makes you want to wake up early."

One of Jonas' favorite urban pastimes is taking his bike for a spin, but his rosy picture of New York got a little cloudier one day recently when the cyclist was robbed! "I love to ride my bike around the city, of course I can't do that any more because it was stolen," Joe revealed. "It was crazy. I was riding it around on Prince and Mercer, shopping with my brother and walked into a shop for 10 minutes. When I came back my bike was gone. I was pretty freaked out, I was looking around to see if maybe I misplaced it. Been bike-less for a few weeks, but I'm going to get another one."
