Violet Affleck got her usual ride in her dad's arms yesterday afternoon as Ben Affleck and his mom picked her up from preschool. She's generally a smiley kid, but Violet looked extra excited to be heading home to see her new baby sister Seraphina. Even Ben was in a happy mood, joking with photographers about baseball. An extra special treat was in store for this morning, though, when Jennifer Garner came along for the ride. While we can't wait for our first peek at their new addition, it's still exciting to see Jen stepping back into their routine.

Jennifer Aniston was happy to wave hi to the waiting paparazzi out in LA yesterday. She showed off that toned arm, which is just another motivation to emulate her workout. Everything seems to be going her way these days so it's no wonder she's in a great mood and now her boyfriend has some good news to celebrate as well. Things are moving forward with his variety show even though most of you aren't that psyched about it just yet. Jennifer might not be ready to show off any talents on the program, but she can certainly give him some advice on television success.

Mark Wahlberg looked buff with a script under his arm out in LA yesterday. On Sunday, he slipped into a tux to present at the Golden Globes, and as executive producer of both Entourage and In Treatment, Mark must have been thrilled with his shows' nominations and wins. Perhaps that's why he was so eager to document the celebrations himself when he hit the after parties.

Adrian Grenier arrived in Miami with his bandmates yesterday and changed into workout gear for a jog and some very public stretching around South Beach. After his workout session was over, he and the rest of The Honey Brothers took the stage at Bova Prime in nearby Ft. Lauderdale. It's all in a days work for Adrian, who was fresh off his weekend at the Golden Globes. Even though Entourage didn't take home any awards, it was still nice to see him looking dapper on the red carpet. It wasn't all fun and games, though — apparently Adrian was denied entry into the exclusive CAA after-party. Adrian might not have the star power of Vinny Chase, but hopefully the little mishap didn't bruise his ego.

After presenting at the Golden Globes over the weekend, Jake Gyllenhaal was back to jogging around LA this morning. He got beefed up while working on Prince of Persia and it looks like he's still keeping his body in shape. If he continues this trend, Jake might bump Beckham out of his hard-earned fittest celebrity male title, or at least give him a run for his money.

It was Showtime's turn to present their newest show this morning at the TCAs, born from the mind of Steven Spielberg, The United States of Tara. After a video introduction from Spielberg himself, the cast and producers sat down to answer questions on the show. Toni Collette stars as a woman with Dissociative Identity Disorder, which her family and friends accept and work with rather than hide. Afterwards, Diablo revealed to Buzz that she'll be guest starring on 90210! Plus, she looked fantastic and a bit toned down from her Juno promoting days. I thought John Corbett would always be Aidan to me, but maybe from here on out I'll love him as Max. Here are some highlights from the panel and check out even more about the show over on Buzz:

- Diablo on the subject matter: "This is not the kind of series you can base on imagination. When you’re dealing with a sensitive topic like this you have to do your homework…There are certainly people who have lived their lives this way…In this case I wanted to make sure that it was completely grounded."
- Toni on taking the part: "I only ever respond to the material. I never had any aspirations to work in TV, but as soon as I closed the last page of the script I turned to my husband and said ‘I have to do this’ it’s a complete dream for an actor to play so many parts. . . I was most nervous about creating Buck [the male alter], I didn’t want him to be a cliché in anyway. There's a specific friend I observed. All of the characters are so complex and whole, you don’t have to travel that far to make it real."
- John on his part: "When I finished reading the script I turned to Toni’s husband and said ‘I have to do this’."
