Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino joined the rest of the guys from Inglorious Bastards for dinner at the aptly named Tarantino's restaurant in Berlin last night. Unfortunately, no Diane Kruger this time. Brad showed off his mustache for the role — who wore it better, Brad or George Clooney? — though you can get a much better first look at him in character here. While we're excited to hear more about this unique-sounding project, Brad's already signed on for another one. He'll be starring in a big screen adaptation of The Odyssey, set in space. It'll be interesting to see how that turns out and where the Jolie-Pitt family will be packing up and moving next to join dad on set.

Mary-Kate Olsen was involved in a minor car accident yesterday in LA, only lucky for the starlet she wasn't the one behind the wheel. Her friend backed her Prius into an El Pollo Loco delivery woman's car, whoops. Rather than helping sort things out, Miss Olsen tried to keep herself hidden in the car. Mary-Kate may go to great lengths to stay out of the public eye most of the time but this Thursday we'll get a peek into her and Ashley's lives when they are set to appear on Oprah. That's not the only place we'll see MK on the small screen — here's a first look of her guest spot on Samantha Who?.

David Beckham wasted no time from flying into LAX with Victoria this weekend to getting back on the field but this time he wasn't playing soccer. The LA Galaxy players took to the green for a charity golf tournament yesterday at the Industry Hills Golf Club at Pacific Palms Resort. While he took a break to play golf, soccer is still the number one game on his mind and his actions. David's even been appointed vice-president for England’s 2018 World Cup bid to help his hometown country host the big event. He's also been invited to train with AC Milan once the MLS season is over. This means less Beckham in the states so we're not a huge fan of this plan but for any die-hard fans out there, you can get your own piece of the superstar by purchasing their personalized Bentley for just $170,000.

After getting dressed up for a wedding over the weekend, Matt and Luciana packed up their two girls and jetted to LA yesterday. Isabella showed off her hair clip and fun socks from the safety of Matt's arms, while Luciana kept baby Gia cozy under her blanket. Now that Matt's all set to star in another Bourne, it will be back to filming in Hollywood soon, but before that he'll be headed up to SF for a OneXOne dinner and if we're lucky a celebrity sighting.
