Last week, we got a glimpse of Drew Barrymore's oddly photoshopped Vogue cover, but thankfully she's looking more like herself inside the magazine. Lately the birthday girl is all about Justin Long who she says makes her cheeks hurt from smiling, but she's got more than that going on. She dishes on her latest role in Grey Gardens, her upcoming projects, and her unorthodox family. Here are highlights:
On her role in Grey Gardens: "Something about learning you can live without everything changes you. All my life, I've been waiting and waiting to become a woman, but I always felt like a little girl. Edie did, too. But I think she might have been the thing that made me finally become a woman. I thought for sure it would be a relationship with another human being, a love. Little did I know it would be a posthumous relationship with a woman named Edith Beale."
On her directorial debut Whip It!: "I have traveled the world for 32 years and voraciously studied literature, art, other cultures. I've been to the places, spent time with the people. I am the most avid music fan. . . Photography has been my secret hobby and passion for years now. I've been putting all that in a piggy bank, and I've been waiting to break it open and make something that is very personal and important to me ... I relate to what it's like to feel like your surroundings are dangerous to the development of who you need to be as an adult. One of the most important rules of filmmaking is tell your story, tell things that are personal to you, and I feel like I'm out of the gate with that one thing in my back pocket."

Amy Adams and Isla Fisher = Oscar Twinkies?! For a minute, I felt like I was having Oscars deja vu when Amy Adams appeared on the red carpet Sunday night. I experienced a flash back to Isla Fisher and the emerald satin Monique Lhuillier gown she wore to the Oscars last year.
We were super excited last week to see the Olsen twins together looking all cleaned up, but sadly the new trend didn't last very long. In fact, Mary-Kate was almost unrecognizable in LA with her messy hair and sweats. If it wasn't for that cigarette we may not have figured it out. A lot of the magazines are writing about their fast paced lifestyle and we can't help but wonder if something sketchy is going on with the girls. It even shows in her recent low-key style — who knew MK even owned a pair of sweats!? This doesn't seem like the best way to promote their new spring line for Elizabeth & James so hopefully they'll be back to twin trendsetting soon enough.
Katherine Heigl followed her big glamorous Sunday night at the Oscars (jazz hands!) with a Monday morning of furniture shopping. She was one of the red carpet favorites with her old Hollywood style, but definitely looked a little nervous (and admitted it) when it was her turn to take the stage as a presenter. It's okay Katherine, it's not like very many people were watching. Instead of being there to calm her nerves, her husband was off on tour and unable to join her for the Academy Awards. Well, it looks like she's busy nesting and getting their home ready for him to return to LA.
With all of the beautiful looks on the Oscars red carpet this year, it was a challenge to find the negatives. Heidi Klum is your choice for the best dressed of the night and one half of your favorite couple, but now that we've narrowed down the misses we want to know who you would choose. Who do you think was the worst dressed at the Oscars?
We're almost done bringing you Oscar night goodies but I couldn't resist sharing Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem looking all cute partying after the big show. I use the f-word a lot, but these really might be my favorite photos of the evening starring one of my favorite couples. The duo didn't do the red carpet together, but Penelope looked like perfection in yet another hot black dress going into the party with his mom by her side. Awww. Javier is a lucky man with both those beautiful women with him to help celebrate his win. Seriously though, how good do these two look together? He's new to the manjoyment radar and she's looking better than ever these days, right?
Ryan Phillippe headed north to promote Stop Loss on MuchMusic. He was then spotted solo grabbing coffee in the same outfit and his standard baseball cap. From that cute smirk on his face, things seem to be getting better since he recently literally bared all on his sad divorce. He said Abbie wasn't the reason but they are in this movie together and planning on working with each other again in Last Battle Dreamer. For some reason I want to not like him but it's so hard since beyond the obvious Manjoyment, he still seems like a great dad who melts our hearts.
Nicky Hilton makes dressing for transition weather look so easy! Waiting for her car at Barneys New York in Beverly Hills, she wore a trendy and chic ensemble consisting of a gray blazer, a simple black tank, denim cut offs and platform booties.
