When Miley Cyrus was named favorite female singer at Saturday’s Kids’ Choice Awards, the teen star couldn’t help but get a bit choked up. "I was a little embarrassed," she tells MTV News. "But then again, I shouldn’t be."

And Cyrus, 16, says despite criticism, her response was genuine. "It meant something to me," she says, "because it’s from the kids and the kids are more important than anything else in the world. So it made me happy."

Cyrus, whose latest project is Hannah Montana: The Movie, say she didn’t even expect to win the award, and was truly surprised by the honor. "Honestly, I didn’t think I was going to win it," she says. "It just made my day that I did. It means a lot to me."

Nearly two dozen employees at Kaiser Permanante Medical Center in Bellflower, Calif., were recently fired or disciplined for peeking into the medical records of octuplet mom Nadya Suleman.
"It appears that for these people curiosity got the better of them and that’s tragic because it led to job dismissals, which isn’t easy for us to do, but it’s an action we had to take," says Kaiser spokesman Jim Anderson.
Fifteen employees were fired and eight were disciplined for snooping into Suleman’s records without authorization. Anderson declined to divulge the job titles of the employees involved, but said, "They ran the whole gamut of the medical staff."
Hospital officials discovered Suleman’s medical records had been inappropriately accessed on two different occasions beginning three weeks ago while security personnel were monitoring Kaiser’s computer network.
Anderson says none of the information appears to have been leaked or sold to the media. Kaiser officials notified Suleman about the matter on both occasions, shortly after the employees had either been fired or disciplined.

Even though the cameras weren’t rolling on her reality show, Kelly Bensimon was the star of a personal drama on Tuesday. The Real Housewives of New York player reported to a Big Apple courthouse to face a misdemeanor assault charge after she allegedly attacked her boyfriend, Nick Stefanov.

Bensimon, 40, was arrested March 5 for punching Stefanov in the face and entered a not guilty plea at the time.

"I’m really upset by the entire process," she told Extra after the Tuesday hearing. "My beautiful girls and I are being exposed to a horrible situation. I just think it just unsettling."

According to police reports, the former model gave her boyfriend a black eye and a gash on his left cheek. He fled the apartment after the altercation. At the time, a friend told PEOPLE that Bensimon was "upset and embarrassed" by the situation.

On Tuesday, her lawyer Ed Hayes told Extra that Stefanov, who did not appear in court, "just wants to make her life uncomfortable."

When asked by Extra if he thinks the situation could be described as a lovers’ quarrel, Hayes said: "I don’t even know if I qualify him as lover. How about a jilted moron?"

‘Escape’ singer Enrique Iglesias has admitted that former professional tennis player Ana Kournikova was the love of his life but the couple has no plans to tie the knot for now.
"If you ask me right now, I’d say she’s the woman in my life, but I don’t know if eternal love exists. The reality is that lots of people who get married get divorced, but I’ll be able to answer that question when I’m 90, then I’ll be able to say if I was with her the rest of my life," the singer was quoted by Latin American Herald Tribune saying in a press conference.
"Relationships are difficult and maintaining them is not easy. I believe in marriage, but I believe that today you don’t have to be married to be happy," Iglesias said.
The 33-year-old singer said he was not yet ready to have children, but he did not rule out having a family in the future. Iglesias and Ana have been together since 2002, when the Russian tennis star played Iglesias’ girlfriend in the video for his hit number Escape .
Over the years, reports periodically suggested a split but both Iglesias and Ana have always denied them.

Making for quite the busy weekend,  Rachelle Lefevre was spotted making her rounds all over Los Angeles on Friday and Saturday (March 27-28).

After changing her clothes, Miss Lefevre then toted her pet pooch over to Mani’s Bakery, where she was interviewed by a female journalist.
