Ellen DeGeneres flipped the concept of The Voice right on its head this afternoon when she made the coaches (minus Cee Lo Green) stay silent and only use gestures to communicate music-themed words and phrases. When choosing our favorite moment from the game, we can’t decide between Christina Aguilera thrashing her head for “Heavy Metal” or Adam Levine pointing to himself for the word “Diva” — with Blake Shelton guessing correctly! Watch all the fun below. Xtina, Blake and Adam are more than invited to our place for our next board game night. Cranium , anyone

The club can’t handle Flo Rida, but Ellen DeGeneres’ soundstage certainly can. The rapper stopped by the morning show to perform his Top 10 hit  “Good Feeling” , which takes its hook from Avicii’s “Levels” , which in turn samples the late Etta James’ 1962 song “Something’s Got a Hold On Me”. “I’m deeply saddened by the passing of the Great Etta James and I will be forever grateful for the gift she blessed me with,” tweeted the rapper after hearing of James’ death. Celebrate Etta’s iconic voice and Flo’s flow in the performance below

What — Adam Lambert’s stellar performance of “Better Than I Know Myself” on the Tonight Show didn’t give you enough of a fix? Luckily, you can now satiate your need for the Glam One by taking in his gig on Ellen today. If we have one complaint, it’s that the guy needs to stop sounding so pitch-perfect.

The Wanted kick off their inaugural US tour next week , but ahead of that the UK quintet hit up The Ellen DeGeneres Show for a performance of their single “Glad You Came”. The guys did their part to make an impression by walking into the audience and hugging, kissing and serenading various willing females. But they saved the best for last by changing up the chorus and singing “we’re glad we came” directly to DeGeneres.

Justin Bieber had to settle for having the second biggest Christmas album of last year ( thanks to that other crooning Canadian , Michael Buble), but that didn’t stop him from spreading the holiday cheer amongst the underprivileged kids of Whitney Elementary in Las Vegas. The Bieb teamed up with Ellen DeGeneres, who aired the below segment of the 17-year-old singer at the school on her show today. “I’m here to bring smiles to these kids’ faces,” Justin told teary-eyed Whitney Elementary principal Sherrie Gahn.

It’s well-known that ballet dancers have to suffer physically for their craft, but if a ballerina had to prance around in Lady Gaga’s ballet slippers, they wouldn’t be able to survive one full routine. Gaga performed her single “Marry The Night” on The Ellen DeGeneres Show wearing the most ungodly dangerous ballet slippers ever created, and even she can’t seem to stand in them for long, as she takes them off halfway through the song. Watch what Gaga calls her “favorite performance ever” below. It’s an exciting number, but we only wish she had dipped into the ballerina trend last year, when it was all the rage with Black Swan and Kanye’s “Runaway” dancers

Lady Gaga has showered affection on her upcoming “Marry The Night” performance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show , but she does adore something other than The Night – namely, fellow New York native Woody Allen. Upon discussing her acting aspirations with Ellen, Gaga reveals, “My dream would be to be in a Woody Allen movie.” Hey, he makes about one movie a year and has worked with most of Hollywood already, we’d say her chances are pretty good! Preview Mama Monster’s interview below. When Ellen brings up the fact that Gaga is preparing to go out on tour yet again, the singer feigns exhaustion before describing the joy she receives from touring. “I can’t wait!” she exclaims, silver tinsel eyebrows raised.

This is pretty much non-news, since “T.H.E.” tunesmith will.i.am informed the masses back in early July that the Black Eyed Peas would be taking a break after the wrap of their touring for latest album The Beginning . Still, that hasn’t stopped the rumors from flying about breakups and band member replacements . At any rate, the band appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show today to state for the record that they’re simply putting things on hold for a bit.

After “Princess” Sophia Grace Brownlee and her “hype girl” Rosie performed Adele’s “Rolling In The Deep” on The Ellen Show , we were sure Ellen DeGeneres would get the soulful singer to meet the two British tykes, just like she did with Nicki Minaj . Instead, the host hooked up the two girls with a meet-and-greet with recent guest Rihanna . And it’s about as precious as you’d expect. Watch below

Rihanna’s sixth album in as many years, Talk That Talk , finally hits stores today, and the AMA winner stopped by The Ellen Show to promote her new LP — and give a glimmer of hope for all the men out there hoping to score a chance with the “We Found Love” singer. “I am not dating anyone right now,” she tells Ellen. “I am not dating at all… I am not necessarily happy being single. It’s not really that cool.” Take the jump to find out what RiRi’s type of man is — but if you’re in any way intimidated by the pop star, you best move along.
