Kevin Bacon

Fergie and Josh Duhamel rubbed elbows with Sean Penn, Kevin Bacon, and Rachel Zoe at Giorgio Armani and Vanity Fair's opening celebrations for the Paris Photo exhibition at Paramount Studios in LA yesterday. Other stars at the event included Minnie Driver and Emma Roberts, who is fresh off a whirlwind trip to the Tribeca Film Festival in NY and a stop in London to promote her new film, Adult World. Check out our interview with Emma Roberts from the festival to hear about her new flick!

Fergie has been slowing down on her pubic appearances since announcing her pregnancy earlier this year. She stopped by an amfAR fundraising gala in Sao Paulo, Brazil, earlier this month, but she's been laying low since then. However, she still has new music coming out, including her new song, "A Little Party Never Killed Nobody," that appears on the Great Gatsby soundtrack. She isn't the only Black Eyed Pea who has new tracks coming out — Will.i.am released his solo album, #WillPower, on Tuesday. On the day of the release, Fergie tweeted, "So excited for the brother will.i.am on today's release of his new solo album #WillPower."

Lea Michele and Zooey Deschanel were joined by their fellow FOX TV friends as they celebrated the network's shows at an all-star party during the 2013 Winter TCAs in Pasadena yesterday. Lea's Glee costars Kevin McHale and Jane Lynch dropped by the bash, but Lea's on- and offscreen boyfriend Cory Monteith wasn't photographed at the event. Meanwhile, Zooey's sister, Emily Deschanel, who stars on FOX's Bones, color-coordinated with her sister in a black cocktail dress. Mindy Kaling, Shannon Woodward, and Nicki Minaj also swung by to celebrate.

The event followed a busy day of promotion for the stars, who sat on a FOX comedy panel yesterday. During the interviews, Mindy got big laughs when she joked around with Zooey about having "special privileges" on The Mindy Project.

George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Martin Sheen were among the A-list actors who participated in the stage reading of 8 in LA last night. The play, written by Dustin Lance Black, showcases the proceedings of the 2010 Proposition 8 federal court battle about California's gay marriage ban that was approved in 2008. The real life events were not broadcast to the public so Dustin Lance Black wrote this script to show what went on behind those closed doors. The play made its debut on Broadway last year, but last night it was all about the star power. 8 streamed live on YouTube, where it will also be available to watch at any time for the next week. Other celebrities in the performance included Kevin Bacon, Chris Colfer, Jesse Tyler Ferguson Jamie Lee Curtis, Matt Bomer, and more.

The overturning of Prop 8 is a cause that George and Brad have both spoken about many times. Clooney recently spoke about rumors about his own sexuality to The Advocate, saying, "I’m not going to let anyone make it seem like being gay is a bad thing. My private life is private, and I’m very happy in it. Who does it hurt if someone thinks I’m gay? I’ll be long dead and there will still be people who say I was gay. I don’t give a sh*t."

Shirtless Kevin Bacon kicked back on the beach in Hawaii yesterday with his wife, Kyra Sedgwick, and their kids, Sosie and Travis. The couple vacationed on the island of Kauai and enjoyed the afternoon lounging under the sun and swimming in the Pacific Ocean. Wearing a mix-and-match bikini, Kyra showed off her many tattoos, with the largest design visible on her lower back.

Kyra and Kevin are expected back in LA later this month for the SAG Awards. She's nominated in the best actress category for her starring role in The Closer — check out the entire list of SAG nominees. Kyra took home a win in the same category at last year's Primetime Emmy ceremony, but we'll just have to wait and see if she adds another statue to her collection.

Ryan Reynolds hopped on a bike while filming R.I.P.D. in Boston yesterday. He was decked out in police gear for the day on set, which included costar Kevin Bacon and a few young actors. It's Ryan's 35th birthday today, and he fit in a few celebrations before having to focus on work this weekend. Ryan and his new flame Blake Lively partied with pal Sandra Bullock and other friends in NYC on Thursday. They started their night with dinner at Palma and then headed to The Box, where they apparently stayed until 2 a.m. Ryan continued his birthday fun with Blake in Boston, and the two were spotted leaving his apartment early Saturday morning.

Ryan Reynolds spent a casual Sunday in NYC hanging with his best friend, Baxter. Ryan adopted Baxter the dog in 2009 from a Houston animal shelter, and according to the actor, "[They've] been best buds ever since." It was back to work today for Ryan, who was spotted on the Massachusetts set of his latest project, R.I.P.D., with Kevin Bacon. The men share the big screen with Oscar-winner Jeff Bridges as well as a newcomer to film Victoria's Secret supermodel Marisa Miller.

Miranda Kerr stepped out for lunch Saturday at LA's Cheebo with her son Flynn. She's home again in California following a quick trip last week to South Korea, where she did interviews and had a few changes including a traditional South Korean costume, for photo ops on behalf of one of her many contracts. Miranda changed into an orange dress by the evening to attend a Global Green party at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel with her husband Orlando Bloom. They mingled with his Sympathy For Delicious director and costar Mark Ruffalo at the bash, which also brought out box office winner X-Men: First Class star Kevin Bacon and his wife Kyra Sedgwick. Orlando is a longtime celeb supporter of the eco organization, since both he and Miranda are well known for their advocacy on behalf of green causes.

The stars of X-Men: First Class rolled up to their premiere at NYC's Ziegfeld Theatre last night in a collection of vintage cars, perfect for the blockbuster set back in the '60s. Leading men Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy were dapper on the carpet following a long day of work at their press junket — stay tuned next week for our chat with the guys! January Jones covered up her baby bump in a blue and black Preen dress while Zoe Kravitz supported her longtime pal Alexander Wang in a gray velvet maxi. The cast was rounded out by Rose Byrne, Lucas Till, and Kevin Bacon, who fit a stop by The Late Show between afternoon interviews at the evening's screening. Rumored couple Zoe Kravitz and Michael Fassbender kept their distance on the carpet, posting with their many costars in between. The movie actually brought together another duo, since Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult are apparently dating now, too! Jennifer and Nicholas, though, weren't able to attend yesterday's event. The X-Men family connections keep coming, with Zoe's dad Lenny now set to star in The Hunger Games with Jennifer.
