The nominated Choice Movie Actress in a Drama, Reese Witherspoon made sure to keep herself hydrated while leaving a friend's house in LA yesterday morning. Today it was revealed that she was recognized for Rendition for the 2008 Teen Choice Awards — click here for all the nominees. What's even more interesting is that her ex-husband Ryan Phillippe will be duking it out with boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal for the Choice Movie Actor in a Drama award. While Ryan has already wished Reese and Jake the best, it could make for a slightly awkward night if everyone shows up to the award ceremony.

We already knew that Nicole Kidman would be Vogue's July cover girl, and she looks wistful, gorgeous and stylish in the Annie Leibovitz photo shoot. Just as expected, her baby bump is barely showing, but you can see how Nicole has been influenced by her pregnancy in the article. She speaks up about being a mom-to-be, her relationship with Keith, and filming Australia in the emotional interview. Here are highlights:

- On the new baby: "When I first saw the baby on the ultrasound, I started crying. I didn't think I'd get to experience that in my lifetime. I like the unpredictable nature of it. To feel life growing with you is something very, very special, and I'm going to embrace that completely. I don't believe in flittering around the edges of things. You're either going to walk through life and experience it fully or you're going to be a voyeur. And I'm not a voyeur."
- On finding Keith after her marriage to Tom: "Keith and I, we're more like, 'Hey' [she shrugs and smiles]. We just gently, gently sort of fell into each other. We were just two lonely people who went, 'Ah, there you are.' I'm so committed to this relationship, and so is he. I don't have addiction problems, but love is a very powerful force in my life. It's my fatal flaw and my virtue."
- On living in Tennessee: "I've been in Tennessee, just sitting. We have a farm there, and I have an organic vegetable garden. This is a path I'd not taken before. My mum's always gardened. My sister gardens. And I've now conformed to the Kidman women's hobby of gardening. And it is just a hobby. I'm not feeding the troops. There's a softness to the Tennessee landscape that I just love. It's very beautiful out there. We have deer and wild turkeys."

Lindsay Lohan looked happy to be back on the set of Labor Pains on Monday and even finding time to squeeze in some shoe shopping during her lunch break. It sounds like things are going well on the set, and the movie's producer Lati Grobman is even singing LL's praises. She said, "We were a little bit reluctant to work with her. But she's been amazing." Grobman also went on to gush about Lindsay's "natural" acting talent and said the only downside is the paparazzi. While the photographers have already leaked a few of the movie's spoilers to the public, it sounds like Lindsay's acting skills may still make it a movie worth seeing.

Keanu Reeves was spotted on the French Riviera yesterday, where he showed off his beach bod taking a dip with China Chow. That big grin on his face tells us he was enjoying his fun in the sun, which is good since he's looking a little on the pasty side. Nothing makes us jealous quite like an exotic vacation, but what we're more curious about is the relationship between Ms Chow (who happens to be topless but we felt no need to share that with you here) and Keanu with his post-Point Break body.

Friendly exes Mandy Moore and DJ AM caught up over lunch in LA this past weekend. Even though these two called it quits over a year ago, they seem comfortable as pals since they often meet up for dinners out or at parties. Since DJ AM, Mandy has moved on to a new musical man: her latest flame, indie rocker Ryan Adams. Everyone has an opinion on whether or not it's a good idea to stay friends with an ex, but it looks like Mandy and Adam can do it just fine.
