"Guess Selena Gomez is in a different league than the &amp;quot;pitchy strippers&amp;quot; Kelly Clarkson was bemoaning. A day after Clarkson trashed some of the entertainers on hand for Sunday&amp;apos;s MTV Video Music Awards, the inaugural American Idol, 31, had nothing but praise for Gomez, 21, who attended and presented at the event. &amp;quot;Dear Selena Gomez, you are by far one of the most beautiful, sexy, classy things on this planet,&amp;quot; the &amp;quot;Dark Side&amp;quot; singer tweeted Aug. 27. Clarkson also pointed out that she and Gomez, BFF Taylor Swift&amp;apos;s seatmate inside the Barclays Center, are both Lone Star state natives: &amp;quot;#Goddidgood #texasgirls,&amp;quot; her tweet continued.\r\n\r\nWatching the VMAs, Clarkson seemed to take a jab at Miley Cyrus&amp;apos; headline-yanking performance: &amp;quot;Just saw a couple performances from the VMAs last night,&amp;quot; she wrote on Monday, Aug. 26. &amp;quot;2 words...#pitchystrippers.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nTo be fair, 20-year-old Cyrus wasn&amp;apos;t the only scantily clad performer of the night: Lady Gaga opened up the show with her new single &amp;quot;Applause,&amp;quot; eventually stripping down to a G-string and shell bikini top.\r\n\r\nLate last week, Clarkson -- who has decided to elope with fiance Brandon Blackstock -- seemed to be a fan of Gaga&amp;apos;s latest music. &amp;quot;Really digging Macklemore right now and also Lady Gaga&amp;apos;s new song Applause ....I love music that puts me in a great mood #welldone.&amp;quot;\r\nRounding out her August critiques, the star also heaped praise on Jennifer Aniston and Jason Sudeikis&amp;apos; latest comedic offering. &amp;quot;We&amp;apos;re the Miller&amp;apos;s is one of the best movies I&amp;apos;ve seen in a long time. Hilarious!! NoRagrets ....not one single letter haha!!&amp;quot; she wrote. (As it happens, Aniston, 44, plays a stripper in the road trip comedy.)"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
