We report on the calculation of the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the production of massive gauge-boson pairs in association with a hard jet at the Tevatron and the LHC. Leptonic decays of the gauge bosons are included by applying an improved version of the narrow-width approximation that treats them as on-shell particles, but keeps the information on their spins. The QCD corrections stabilize the leading-order prediction for the cross sections with respect to scale variations. However, the scale dependence of the next-to-leading order results for the LHC is only reduced considerably if a veto against the emission of a second hard jet is applied. In general, the corrections do not simply rescale the differential leading-order cross sections. In particular, their shapes are distorted if an additional energy scale is involved.
