Ashton, You've Proved You're A Man. Now Shave.

Wow, I kinda regret ever defending Ashton's newfound manliness in beard form, because this is pretty sick. He and Courteney Demi were out in Manhattan last night celebrating the launch of Donna Karen's Urban Zen Initiative with the likes of Penelope Cruz (seen here being a little shy). Unfortunately for them, Ashton's The Real Wedding Crashers met its demise pret-ty quickly, but don't write off Ashton's career yet -- rumor has it he is teaming up with Cameron for a good old Vegas based RomCom. Yay.
