All eyes were on a glowing Mariah Carey during a Jenny Craig event at the Four Seasons in NYC this afternoon. She wore a body-hugging red dress for the appearance, which was hosted by Gayle King. Mariah's been talking about her dramatic weight loss after giving birth to twins Moroccan and Monroe in May, and recently shared that she gained over 70 pounds during her pregnancy. The singer stopped by The Rosie Show yesterday to tell her story and explained that she had a really "tough pregnancy” but that "it was a huge blessing to be able to have the babies." Mariah's also flaunting her abs on the cover of Us Weekly and, inside the issue, talks about the fitness and diet plan that helped get her back in shape.

Adriana Lima

Miranda, Adriana, and Alessandra Give Us the Backstage Victoria's Secret Scoop!

The action began backstage at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in NYC today!

The action began backstage at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in NYC today! Hairstylist Orlando Pita and lead makeup artist Lauren Cosenza were in charge of transforming the models into Angels, and girls like Miranda Kerr, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Adriana Lima squeezed in interviews between primping sessions. Kanye West, who's performing during tonight's show, popped between the beauty stations to say hello to some of the ladies. He was introduced to Miranda Kerr, then gave rumored lady friend Chanel Iman a big hug. The press was running all over to talk to the models, but when Kanye arrived, things really hit the fan!

Miranda Kerr spoke with us about her husband Orlando Bloom, who's attending the show this evening, and what their family will do over the holidays. Adriana Lima shared a sweet anecdote about her daughter Valentina having a playdate with Alessandra Ambrosio's little one Anja, who apparently has some angel wings of her own already.

  • Alessandra on her daughter Anja's exposure to the show: "She came to the rehearsal — she's not allowed to come to the show yet! She was on the runway with me. She was just playing model, she was being an Angel . . . She didn't see the costumes, she only saw the wings. She saw the wings, and she was like, 'Mama! I have all these wings too at home! I have a butterfly, I have angel wings!' She has tons of wings, she was comparing our angel wings with hers."
  • Miranda on the trick to wearing Angel wings: "The wings are good! They're very heavy. You just do the best you can with the wings. Part of me is a little bit nervous because I don't want to be bopping down the catwalk. The aim is to glide down the catwalk. But when you have wings on you kind of bob a little bit."
  • Adriana on her daughter Valentina's playdate with Alessandra's daughter: "My baby, Valentina, actually I brought her yesterday for rehearsal. She did see my shoes, she fell in love with the wings. She walked on the runway. It was so cute. She had such a fun day yesterday. Alessandra's baby was here too, Anja, they were having a little playdate!"
  • Miranda on her and Orlando's holiday plans: "I think we'll probably be in Australia, so that will be nice. Because Orlando's filming The Hobbit down there."

Brad Pitt was in premiere mode today for a screening of Moneyball during the Tokyo International Forum for film. Angelina was in a chic and simple, tight red dress to join Brad on the carpet, and the couple held hands before striking their poses for photographers. Brad was solo afterward, though, when he took the stage to address reporters before the screening and pose with some Japanese baseball players. Brad, Angelina, and their kids arrived in the country just yesterday following a Fall spent in Europe. The Jolie-Pitts moved from Malta to Scotland, England, and on to Hungary as Brad shot World War Z. Next up for Brad and Angelina will be her busy Winter promoting In the Land of Blood and Honey, and, perhaps, a jam-packed award season if either picks up nominations for their various film endeavors.

Katie Holmes was up bright and early again today for a taping of the Rachael Ray Show in NYC. It's the latest stop on her East Coast Jack and Jill promotional tour leading up to Friday's release. Katie's schedule is packed with appearances, but she's also carving out plenty of time to spend with Suri. The duo visited American Girl Place last night, and Suri even brought along one of her own stuffed dolls for the adventure. Katie's press duties wrap up tomorrow with a trip to The Late Show, and from there it's likely they'll reunite with Tom Cruise, who's currently shooting One Shot in Pittsburgh.

Earlier this week Katie talked about wanting to team up with her husband on the big screen and commented on a possible Dawson's Creek reunion, but it's Tom's latest quotes about Katie that are making headlines. Talking about his upcoming role in Rock of Ages, Tom said Katie was the one who inspired him to dance. Katie's passion for dance seems to be contagious in the Cruise-Holmes household, as Suri is frequently seen showing off her moves between ballet classes.
