Heidi Pratt performed for the first time on Sunday’s Miss Universe pageant.
She sang “Body Language” while dancing around in a sequin bra and matching pants. Half her song was blocked out while NBC, which broadcast the performance from The Bahamas, introduced the 15 finalists.
“I think people don’t know what to expect, and how can they? It’s my first performance live and it’s in front of a billion eyes. So I’m very excited to show everyone what I’m coming with,” Montag told the Associated Press just before performing.
TMZ.com reported that Montag would lipsync because producers were nervous about her performance and couldn’t remember her lyrics.
Pratt, though, said she was unaware of the criticism and eager to take the stage.
“I’m very excited for everybody to see this,” she said. “I think a lot of people are expecting something very different.”
Milla Jovovich and her fiancé, director Paul Anderson, are getting ready to tie the knot this Saturday, People has confirmed.
The couple, who are parents to daughter Ever Gabo, 20 months, have invited about 50 guests to a sunset ceremony at their Los Angeles-area home.
“It’s going to be small,” Jovovich recently told People. “It’s just going to be family and close friends. And it’s at our home and it’s going to be kind of Havana/Cuban, like very California-Spanish feeling. It’s going to be nice.”
As for the wedding attire? The bride, 33, told People she’s wearing a gown she designed herself and describes it as a “1960′s mini-dress.”
The couple met in 2002 when Anderson, 44, whose films also include Alien Vs Predator, directed Jovovich in the box office hit Resident Evil. The two welcomed their daughter in November, 2006.
The actress can currently be seen opposite Steve Zahn and Timothy Olyphant in the thriller A Perfect Getaway, which premiered on Aug. 7. Anderson’s latest film, which he wrote and directed, was 2008′s Death Race starring Jason Statham.

How Pitt handled his 2005 divorce from Jennifer Aniston amidst an affair with Angelina Jolie.
“There literally is not another situation in the history of Hollywood where a man left a woman as beloved as Jennifer Aniston for someone like Angelina Jolie (a home-wrecking head case) and still ended up the good guy,” Pratt writes. “We salute you, Mr. Pitt!”
In the tome — which is being published by Grand Central Publishing and hits bookshelves in November — Pratt opens up about his eagerness to be the bad guy.
“If I weren’t me, I’d hate me,” he adds. “When you’re the villain, you don’t have to worry about how your enemy feels.”
Case in point: He bragged that he couldn’t have cared less that he was blamed for leak of nemesis Lauren Conrad’s alleged sex tape. He even said he made a point of telling every blog that the tape — which he claims was “beyond boring” — existed.
Shania Twain is planning a “big surprise” for her fans.
The country music star posted a video on her website, promising to reveal the “special gift” on her 44th birthday next week.
In the clip – which was shot in the garden of Shania’s home in Switzerland – the singer thanks fans for remembering her son Eja’s eighth birthday, before giving hints about the surprise.
Shania said: “Hi everyone, Shania here. First to start off, I want to thank you for all the beautiful birthday wishes for Eja’s birthday. Secondly, if you haven’t already seen on my website for August 28 on my birthday, I will be giving you a small gift of thanks for all of your support over the last year… You’ve been really wonderful, thank you so much.”
The “gift” is thought to be a “very personal travelogue” documenting Shania’s 2008 split from her husband, producer Robert ‘Mutt’ Lange, who reportedly had an affair with her best friend.
A source said: “It’s not new music, but it’s a piece that Shania put together of what she’s been doing for the last year. It’s definitely a totally new side of Shania that no one’s ever seen.”
Fans will also be able to watch Shania on TV later this month when she appears as a guest judge on ‘American Idol’.

He added to Rolling Stone magazine: “We started having so much fun making this record, that we decided we would do a studio album first. It sounds fresh – I think we reinvented ourselves again.
“Jon and I had a wonderful time making it. We’re very proud of it – just getting down to mixing it right now. We hit a very prolific period in our songwriting.”
