Sundance Film Festival

See All the Stars at Sundance Parties!

The Sundance Film Festival has been jam-packed with parties, red carpets, and star-studded events since it kicked off witha rip-roaring, blizzard-filled opening weekend.

The Sundance Film Festival has been jam-packed with parties, red carpets, and star-studded events since it kicked off witha rip-roaring, blizzard-filled opening weekend. The Bing Bar played host to everyone from Drake on Saturday night to Kristen Bell for her House of Lies happy hour on Sunday. Elsewhere in Park City, Emma Roberts partied with her cast of Celeste and Jesse Forever, while Joshua Jackson caught up with his Lay the Favorite costars. LTF was getting a lot of buzz coming into the festival and was completed just days before it premiered.




Aziz Ansari took advantage of Sundance to schedule some stand-up, and he actually acted as Drake's opening act at the Bing Bar on Saturday. During the show, Cuba Gooding Jr. stormed the stage when he thought people weren't giving Aziz the attention he deserved. Aziz also stepped out to support his Parks and Recreation costar Rashida Jones, who made her screenwriting debut in Celeste and Jesse. Lizzy Caplan and Kirsten Dunst's movie Bachelorette hits Sundance on Monday evening, but the girls caught up beforehand as well. On Sunday, Lizzy joined Allison Brie, Christina Hendricks, and her husband Geoffrey Arend all sat together to enjoy a relaxing dinner at Chefdance. Bradley Cooper rolled into town late, since his film The Words is one of the last to premiere at the festival. There'still the final weekend and Sundance awards to come, but here's all the latest party pics from all the awesome events!

Over the weekend, Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana, celebrated pal Lisa Snowdon's 40th birthday in London, and now we've got exciting images from inside the bash. Matt and Luciana sipped drinks, danced, and chatted with friends Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky, who recently joined them for a sunny vacation. The foursome met up with a group on a mega yacht off the coast of St. Barts earlier this month, and they were spotted riding down a massive slide, swimming, and making a splash in the water. Elsa and Chris are expecting their first child together, and Elsa's baby bump was on display in tiny bikinis throughout the trip.

Leonardo DiCaprio popped up in Mexico on Wednesday with girlfriend, Victoria's Secret model Erin Heatherton, and his best friend Lukas Haas. The getaway comes as a welcome break for Leo, who's been swamped with award-season appearances. Leo's starring role in J. Edgar earned him a nomination in the best actor category at this weekend's SAG Awards, though he'll have to beat out favorites George Clooney and Brad Pitt to take home the statue.

The 2012 Oscar nominations were revealed Tuesday morning, and many of you were shocked to find out Leo was snubbed by the Academy. He may not have another Oscar nomination under his belt, but Leo's not letting it dampen his spirits — Leo and Erin were spotted zip lining together during their south-of-the-border vacation, so it would seem he's still hanging in there.

Diane Kruger and Vanessa Paradis Get Glam For the Annual Sidaction Dinner

Diane Kruger and Vanessa Paradis made the rounds at Paris's annual Sidaction benefit, proceeds of which go toward AIDS charities.

Diane Kruger and Vanessa Paradis made the rounds at Paris's annual Sidaction benefit, proceeds of which go toward AIDS charities. The event, now in its tenth year, is one of the social centerpieces of Couture Fashion Week, and Diane and Vanessa have both been busy shuttling between shows and parties over the last few days. Yesterday, they caught up with friends like a Nina-Ricci clad Clémence Poésy, model Anja Rubik, and designer Christian Louboutin. Diane wore a lacy Erdem gown, while Vanessa was decked out in sequined Chanel.

The front row duties have been mixed in with interviews for Vanessa. She's simultaneously talking up her new movie Café de Flore, which came out in France earlier this week. While making the press rounds, she addressed the recent rumors about a split with longtime love Johnny Depp. Vanessa called the stories "false," hopefully putting an end to the latest round of speculation about their romance.

Glenn Close Says She "Looked at Charlie Chaplin" to Pose as a Man in Albert Nobbs

In Albert Nobbs, Glenn Close stars as a 19th century woman posing as a man to get by.

In Albert Nobbs, Glenn Close stars as a 19th century woman posing as a man to get by. The movie is out today in wide release and just in time, because Close just earned an Oscar nomination for best actress for the role. Recently, I sat down with Close to chat about bringing the story from the stage to the screen, how she got into character, and why her costume was far more comfortable than what she wears for her TV series Damages.
