Miley Cyrus received a motorcycle from her father Billy Ray Cyrus as she celebrated her 21st birthday on November 23. The "Achy Breaky Heart" singer reportedly splashed out as much as $24,000 on a customized 2013 Can Am Spyder motorcycle for his daughter.

In a photo obtained by TMZ, the white three-wheeled motorcycle is featured with Miley's initials "MC" on the front part. The motorcycle is also decorated with ribbons. The gift, however, apparently was not really a surprise for Miley as her father and sister sister Noah were pictured riding the bike on Friday, November 22.

Miley, whose house was burglarized one day before her birthday, apparently celebrated her milestone in a low-key bash. The "Party in the U.S.A." singer shared a photo of a beautiful M-shaped floral arrangement on Saturday via her Instagram page. She posed with the arrangement as the background in another photo. "I can't thank my babies enough!" she captioned the snap.

Miley also shared a photo of a delicious-looking cake which she received from her friend. "The gayest birthday cake ever," she wrote on Twitter. The birthday cake consists of several layers with different colors. It is covered with icing on top and also has sprinkles as well as candles.

Lady GaGa Named as the New Face of Versace

Versace confirms in a Twitter post that the 'Applause' singer has been chosen as the face of their Spring/Summer 2014 campaign.

Lady GaGa has been named as the face of Versace for the company's Spring/Summer 2014 campaign. The Italian fashion house confirmed the news in a Twitter post. "#Versace proudly confirms @LadyGaga as the face of SS14 campaign shot by Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott #VersaceLovesGaga," the announcement read. Ads featuring the singer will appear in magazines in January.

In addition to confirming the partnership, Versace shared first photo of the pop star for the campaign. In the photo, the Mother Monster can be seen wearing a light purple dress. Her long blond hair is styled loose as she lounges on a couch. She also wears some rings to complete the look.

The 27-year-old singer additionally showed her excitement on Twitter. "I'm so happy to be working w/ @Versace for the new Campaign! What do you wanna wear this Spring? #Donatella #famiglia," she wrote. Donatella Versace retweeted the post and added her response, "To a true iconic contemporary Versace woman: Thank you. -Donatella."

GaGa made headlines as she showed up at the American Music Awards on Sunday with a white horse costume operated by people. She sat on the horse while posing for pictures on the red carpet. The pop star later played Marilyn Monroe as she performed "Do What U Want" with R. Kelly, who played Mr. President. "Lady Gaga and R.Kelly killing the #AMAs right now!" LeBron James commented on the performance on his Twitter page.

AMAs 2013: Katy Perry Brings Big Book, Lady GaGa Brings Horse on Red Carpet

Perry, the opening act of the music awards show, carried a yellow clutch resembling a big book while GaGa rocked the red carpet on top of a white horse.

Katy Perry was one of the first music stars to walk on the red carpet of American Music Awards on Sunday, November 24. The "Roar" singer wore a flowing black gown from Oscar de la Renta and made a statement with her yellow big book clutch and a big floral ring. She was scheduled to open the show with "Unconditionally".

The girls of "Glee" showed major cleavage with their ensemble. Jenna Ushkowitz wore a sleeveless orange gown with plunging neckline while Naya Rivera stunned in a black Michael Kors dress with long tail, Jimmy Choo shoes and vintage YSL gold cuff clutch.

Another highlight from the red carpet is the appearance of Kelly Clarkson who debuted her baby bump for the first time since announcing the pregnancy last week on Twitter. She walked the red carpet with husband Brandon Blackstock. Actress Emma Roberts chose silver Lanvin's Ete 2014 Women's Collection by Alber Elbaz and paired it with satin maroon clutch.

In a rather shocking appearance, Ke$ha showed off her slim legs in an elegant black dress with ruffles on the hip. With her cotton candy colored hair let loose and minimal jewelries, the "Tik Tok" singer almost looked like Lady GaGa. Speaking of which, the "Applause" crooner was head to toe Versace, the fashion house in which she is a spokesperson. However, the eye catcher was the white horse she rode on, the one that complimented her all-purple ensemble. She will perform her single "Do What U Want" with R. Kelly.

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift was leggy in a gold strapless Julien Macdonald dress and Jimmy Choo shoes. She completed her look with Lorraine Schwartz jewels and a Tod's clutch. Miley Cyrus, who has just turned 21, ditched dress for a white Versus Versace suit that bared her cleavage. She topped off the masculine look with Saint Laurent shoes and Lorraine Schwartz jewels. Cyrus is scheduled to perform "Wrecking Ball".

2013 American Music Awards is broadcast live from Nokia Theatre L.A.

AMAs 2013: Justin Timberlake, Rihanna and Taylor Swift Are Early Winners

The 'Mirrors' singer nabs the first award of the night, Favorite Male Artist in Pop/Rock, while the Bajan beauty is named Favorite Soul/R&B Female Artist.

The 2013 American Music Awards has been officially kicked off with Katy Perry opening the ceremony. She performed her latest single "Unconditionally" from new album "Prism" in a Japanese concept stage.

After a monologue by host Pitbull, Taylor Swift came out to present the first award of the night: Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist. Taking the nod was Justin Timberlake, who edged out Bruno Mars and Robin Thicke. It marked the third time he nabbed the award in the same category.

One Direction catered the crowd with their new ballad "The Story of My Life" before Zoe Saldana and Marc Anthony announced Soul/R&B Female Artist, which went to Rihanna. Ciara and Alicia Keys were vying for the same title.

It wasn't long before Swift herself took home a trophy. The country music darling won Favorite Album for her chart-topping record, "Red". In her acceptance speech, she credited her fans for allowing her to make a different kind of album with "Red".

Rap duo Macklemore & Ryan Lewis has also won an award, snatching Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Album which was presented by Akon and Michael Bolton. They defeated other strong contenders including Jay-Z and Kendrick Lamar for the prize.

Delivering their "thank you" message from Miami as he and his partner could not attend the event, Macklemore quoted Martin Luther King, Jr. in his acceptance speech, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." He also urged people to fight against racism, saying, "This is really happening...it's time we look out for the youth and fight against racism and the laws that protect it."

More winners will be announced while the likes of Christina Aguilera, Miley Cyrus, Lady GaGa and Ariana Grande are slated to deliver musical performances. The ceremony is currently taking place at Los Angeles' Nokia Theatre.
