John Mayer finally gives Jess some PDA...
Eonline.com's Marc Malkin claims he saw John Mayer kiss Jessica Simpson at a Grammy after party last night! Here's the scoop:
<p><p>
<i>"At around 9:15 p.m., Mayer was the third celeb to hit Sony's Grammy after-party at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
<p><p>
He and a posse of a dozen men made a beeline for one of the four private outdoor cabanas. Mayer immediately sat down, started texting on his phone and made a brief phone call.
<p><p>
About a half hour later, Simpson popped in. She and Mayer went deep in conversation, and Simpson made a sweet pouty face.
<P><p>
And then it happened. I saw Mayer kiss Simpson tenderly on the cheek. They parted ways, and Simpson chatted with her sister, Ashlee. But few minutes later, she and Mayer were talking. This time, Mayer was stroking her back.
<p><p>
Now, this certainly wasn't the place for one-on-one time. The lovebirds were soon joined by Simpson's dad, Joe, and then American Idol-er Chris Daughtry.
<p><p>
Despite all the interruptions, Mayer kept at it, singing Terence Trent D'Arby's "Wishing Well" to Simpson."</i>

Hmmm... stay tuned!
Newcomer Robyn Troup got to duet with JT AND is now signed to his production company!
"This is the most amazing thing that's ever happened to me," said My Grammy Moment winner Robyn Troup after she won the chance to sing with Justin Timberlake on stage Sunday night.
<p><p>
Robyn, who was also celebrating her 19th birthday, got to join JT for a duet of "Ain't no Sunshine" and "My Love" said; ""I don't know how I did it. It's all really a blur. I remember my name being called and trying not to cry."
<p><p>
Something tells me we haven't seen the last of this girl...
