Salma Hayek got all gorgeous with her uber red lips and jeweled YSL dress to attend a celebratory dinner for good friend and shoe designer Edmundo Castillo for Sergio Rossi at his new L.A. store last night. Salma showed off her sexy post-pregnancy body and she looks stunning! The actress has plenty on her plate right now between taking care of Valentina and a new movie coming up, but she's still finding time for other important things in life like her favorite shoes. Sounds like a perfect balance to me.
Matthew McConaughey is clearly pretty excited about becoming a dad, as he was all smiles yesterday in LA. Remember the last time we saw MM with a kid? He looks natural on the beach with a little buddy. As for what the rest of Hollywood thinks about Matt's impending baby, George Clooney said, "He's expecting? That'll stretch his stomach out, it'll look terrible." Typical Clooney wisecracking. But unless Matthew gains some sympathy weight, we have a feeling his abs will remain in pristine condition as he keeps l-i-v-i-n.
While the whole world is watching every tragic move Britney Spears makes these days, it was still unsettling to read yesterday that an entertainment reporter from the Associated Press admitted to Us Weekly that not only would her death be a huge story but they've already got her obituary drafted up. He said,
"We are not wishing it, but if Britney passed away, it’s easily one of the biggest stories in a long time...I think one would agree that Britney seems at risk right now...Of course, we would never wish any type of misfortune on anybody and hope that we would never have to use it until 50 years from now…but if something were to happen, we would have to be prepared."
He went on to say that the AP keeps an "extensive" list of obits pre-written. What do you think — was the reporter out of line or just being honest?
Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz were attached at the hip, or hand, out to lunch yesterday afternoon before getting dressed up for last night's big Cloverfield premiere (she liked it). It couldn't have been too too late of a night for the adorable duo, however, because Ashlee was perfectly peppy and happy to chat this afternoon when Pop and I got her on the phone. We'll be bringing you more details from our conversation soon (thank you so much for all the questions!), but in the meantime here's a taste of what we got to talking about with Miss Simpson.
Ashlee was all about her new single and upcoming album (end of March) and is excited to start out soon on her promotional club tour before her real tour with the band. She was also happy to impart her personal mottos — "go to bed happy and content with who you are" — and laughed as she told us that if her life had gone differently she would have been a hair colorist. We also got the chance (there's much more coming, don't worry) to ask about Pete's upcoming Barack Obama fund-raiser next week in Chicago. She won't be able to make it, but she's very supportive of her boyfriend's project. Overall the most important thing is that she sounded happy — yay. More to come from our interview soon...
Before making her triumphant return to the red carpet at the premiere of Cloverfield last night, Lindsay Lohan spent the day grabbing lunch and hitting the salon to primp for the big event. She wasn't quite ready for any interviews, but her fellow party-goers were happy to weigh in on her presence. Both Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt mentioned how much they'd like to meet her, while Kristin Cavallari went so far to say, "I'm really proud of her that she took (her addiction) seriously this time." Sounds like LL still has plenty of people in her corner but we hope we won't see her hitting up the Hollywood nightlife with MTV's favorite reality stars anytime soon.
Jenna Dewan walked down the street in Beverly Hills looking extremely chic and poised. Her structured white blazer framed her body perfectly, and paired well over her draped fringe Haute Hippie halter, denim leggings, and over-the-knee brown boots.
