Justin Timberlake To Be Honored at Kids' Choice Awards


Nickelodeon is honoring Justin Timberlake for more than his burping.

The musician-turned-actor will receive the big help award on Saturday at the Kids' Choice Awards in L.A. for his charitable and environmental efforts, PEOPLE announces exclusively.

"I was inspired at a young age by my parents and family to do everything possible to give back to the world around us," Timberlake, 30, says in a statement. "And it has become a mission of mine to help kids of all ages understand the importance of getting involved in their communities and local charities and doing their part to preserve the planet."


Timberlake has been a dedicated supporter of Shriners Hospitals for Children since 2008, and he hosts an annual PGA golf tournament with a week-long series of events that raises money for programs and services benefiting children in need. He also opened the environmentally friendly Mirimichi Golf Course in Millington, Tenn., which helps the surrounding wildlife habitat and uses less water.

Aside from being a two-time burp award champion, Timberlake has also received two blimps from the Kids' Choice Awards. And he hosted the show in 2007.

PEOPLE reported Monday that Willow Smith will perform at the show and that Kim Kardashian has signed on to present.

Is Britney Spears Going on Tour with Enrique Iglesias?

It's a big day for Britney Spears fans.

The singer's seventh album, Femme Fatale, is officially out and Spears just announced a summer co-headlining tour with Enrique Iglesias during her pre-taped appearance on Good Morning America, which aired Tuesday.

"I'm going on tour with Enrique Iglesias in June," the singer told Robin Roberts in an interview backstage.

However, after Spears's GMA appearance aired, Billboard.com reported that Iglesias had pulled out of Spears's summer tour, though tour promoter Live Nation declined to comment.



Either way, Spears's trek is scheduled to kick off – with or without Iglesias – on June 17 in Sacramento, Calif., and wraps up Aug. 13 in Toronto. For a full list of tour dates, visit the pop star's official Web site.

In addition to her tour announcement, the pop star also performed several new songs on GMA, including "Till the World Ends" and her hit "Hold It Against Me," during the mini-concert, which was taped at San Francisco's Bill Graham Civic Auditorium over the weekend. (Watch her performance below.)

Ashley Greene and Joe Jonas Split

It's twilight for Ashley Greene and Joe Jonas's romance.

The couple, who had been dating since last summer, have broken up, their reps confirm to PEOPLE.

Greene, 24, who plays Alice Cullen in the Twilight films, and Jonas, 21, one-third of the Jonas Brothers, went public with their relationship last fall after dating quietly for a few months.




A source told PEOPLE at the time that Jonas was "head over heels" for Greene. They remained an item through the winter, most recently celebrating Greene's 24th birthday last month in Las Vegas.

In recent weeks, the two, who were never shy about affectionate public appearances, were spotted – separately – at various L.A. clubs. On March 11, Greene and Zac Efron partied with pals at Trousdale Lounge, while Jonas spent a guys' night out at the same club three nights earlier.

Greene is currently filming the latest Twilight film, Breaking Dawn, in Vancouver. Jonas, who previously dated Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift, will release his first solo album this summer.
