The deaths of Whitney Houston, the Beastie Boys‘ Adam Yauch aka MCA, Donna Summer and over the weekend the Bee Gees‘ Robin Gibb left a noticeable pall over the 2012 Billboard Music Awards, but in the spirit of that old show biz adage, the show went on. An absent Adele doubled her Grammy take by sweeping up an impressive 12 wins including Top Artist, Top Billboard 200 Artist, Top Hot 100 Artist and Top Billboard 200 Album for 21. LMFAO trailed with six wins including Top Hot 100 song for the ubiquitous “Party Rock Anthem.”

- Called it. Leonard has confirmed the exit of Maxime Simoens. I knew I couldn’t trust that Simoens as far as I could throw him. Which would be pretty far, he seems rather willowy. Let the Dior speculation continue! [WWD, sub req'd]
- Gareth Pugh‘s costumes for the Royal Opera House production of the ballet Carbon Life — which also features music by Mark Ronson — and it’s safe to say this is not your traditional tutu. Which is perhaps the only safe thing about this. [Telegraph]

- Adele was flashing more than just the bird at the Brit Awards last night. The unlucky-in-love singer showed up with a massive rock on her marrying lady finger, prompting rumors of an engagement. [Huff Po]
- Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez apparently mistook Vanity Fair‘s photo booth for the room they shoulda gotten for this inappropriate heavy petting. Paul Rudd and Jason Bateman, however, can take that lovin’ to the streets. [Buzzfeed]
- Joining Nicki Minaj in the pages of Vogue is fellow raptress-cum-fashionista Kanye West.

Rumors that I unsuccessfully tried to start. [Fashionista]

The Daily Gasp has been rather irregular as of late but, to be honest, there hasn’t been that much to gasp at — I’m looking at you Marc Jacobs. Enter Adele.

Vogue cover girl Adele wore a simple Armani Privé gown to the 2012 Grammy Awards last night, but paired the frock with an armful of blingtastic trophies. The British songstress swept the competition, taking home all six awards for which she was nominated, including Album of the Year for 21 and Record of the Year for “Rolling in the Deep.” She is only the second female to win six Grammys in one night, the first — of course — being Beyoncé in 2010. Ms. Adkins also debuted the return of her voice after vocal surgery by belting out “in the Deep.” Though this was undeniably Adele’s night, the untimely passing of Whitney Houston cast a large shadow over the show with Jennifer Hudson bringing down the house in a stirring rendition of “I Will Always Love You”
