On Wednesday, Paramore nabbed their first-ever #1 album as their self-titled fourth record knocked Justin Timberlake out of the top spot on the Billboard Top 200.

It was something they had been cautiously optimistic about when we spoke to the band at the 2013 MTV Movie Awards, but now, it's official: Paramore have the best-selling record in the country. And though she's had hours to let it all sink in, Hayley Williams was still having a difficult time believing the news.

"This is one of those things that happens in the movies. I feel like we are living out some storyline that I have never imagined would be our own," she wrote in an email to MTV News. "This is like when I watched the Temptations movie or 'That Thing You Do' a million times as a kid ... And wished every time that I could be doing that. I never thought it would be us."

And as if you couldn't guess, the chart-topping success of Paramore is even sweeter considering everything Williams and Co. have gone through over the past two years ... forced to reinvent themselves on the fly, they took plenty of risks on the album, poured their heart and soul into its creation, and now can bask in the satisfaction of knowing all the drama was worth it — and that their fans will truly stick with them through thick and thin.

"For the three of us, it means we did something right!" Williams wrote. "More than that, it means us and our fans gave ...

Now that the top five ladies of have the stage to themselves after dispatching their male rivals,
 things are about to get really real.

With a dual theme of Year You Were Born and Divas on Wednesday night (April 17), Amber Holcomb, Kree Harrison, Candice Glover, Angie Miller and Janelle Arthur told MTV News that they pulled no punches in choosing their songs this week. With the first "Idol" crown for a female in five seasons at stake and all five in need of a breakout week to take a lead, they weren't shy, tapping everything from judge Mariah Carey's catalog, to former judge Paula Abdul, Celine Dion, Dolly Parton, Beyoncé and a special song in tribute to the victims of this week's bombings in Boston.


MTV News asked the top five to break down their choices:

Amber Holcomb
Divas: "I picked [Barbra Streisand's 'What Are You Doing For the Rest of Your Life'] because it's really jazzy and it kind of goes back to when I sang 'My Funny Valentine.' I've shown America all these new things and I want to show them even more.

Year I Was Born: [Carey's "Without You"] "It's going to be kind of weird singing a Mariah Carey song in front of Mariah Carey. But I feel like I sing it like me, so it won't be, 'Ohh! You're singing Mariah!' [It'll be like] 'Amber you're just singing.'"

Angie Miller
Divas: [Beyoncé's "Halo"] "That's huge, that's a big song, but I'm so excited to do it. I love that song."

Year I Was Born: [Pretenders "I'll Stand By ...

Emma Watson and her sticky-fingered pals are going to bring some bling (and hopefully not steal any on their way out) to Cannes Film Festival later this month.

Sofia Coppola-directed will premiere during the Un Certain Regard portion of the festival, the Cannes Film Festival announced on Wednesday. While "The Bling Ring" is showing at the festival, it won't be eligible for the big prize, the Palme d'Or, given that it's premiering during the Un Certain Regard.

Watson and her "Bling Ring" co-stars sat down with MTV News last Friday during Sneak Peek Week, where she not only dished about taking dancing cues from Beyoncé, but also revealed how she managed to get so good at pole dancing.

"[Co-star] Claire [Julien] actually taught me a bunch of moves," she said about her work in the June 14 movie release. "You have to be very physically strong to hold your own body weight, and I really didn't have that core strength initially, so that was pretty intimidating. And, also, I'm just a really awkward sexy person, so basically the scene turned into me just messing around because I think Sofia thought, 'We need to give her a break.' "

The film also stars Katie Chang, Israel Broussard and Taissa Farmiga and is based on the real-life story of a group of teenagers who stole from some of the biggest names in Hollywood.

Not enough shiny star power for you? Well, blingy can also be used to describe the Leonardo DiCaprio/Carey Mulligan starring "The Great Gatsby," which is opening ...
