Jennifer hosted the I Have a Dream Foundation's Dream Keeper Awards at the House of Blues in West Hollywood this weekend. The foundation provides long term free academic assistance to underprivileged children. Each year the Dream Keeper Award is presented to members of the community who share Dr. Martin Luther King's vision and foster the academic development of at risk children in LA. Among this years' winners was Tyra Banks! Tyra celebrated her win with former supermodel pal Rebecca Romijn. In the past few years they've both proven to have interests way beyond swimsuit shoots and runway shows!

Jennifer Lopez is not a Scientologist, okay? But that doesn't mean she doesn't love herself some of those zany characters. Not only is she BFF with the Cruise/Holmes duo, but she recently revealed that there's another Scientologist in her life. And no, I'm not talking about a secret relationship with Danny Masterson. Miami's NBC6 reports:
When asked about what she thought about the negative perception some people have about Scientology, Lopez replied, "I, myself, am Catholic. But it's just sad that people would look at it (Scientology) in that way."
J.Lo also has a personal connection to the Church of Scientology.
"My dad has been a Scientologist for 20 years," she said. "It's weird people want to paint it in a negative way."
Twenty years a Scientologist? That's like Tom Cruise Scientology status. J-Lo's dad must be Scientology visionary, nay, revolutionary of Cruise-like proportions. Only not as aggressive. And hopefully he keeps his shoes off the couch.
Katie and Tom met while she was busy promoting Batman, and he was on a world tour promoting War of the Worlds. Since then, Katie hasn't worked much. She's been busy as a mom, a bride and BFF to Posh and J Lo. We were looking forward to Katie getting back to work in The Dark Knight, the sequel to Batman, but she's apparently backed out due to scheduling conflicts with another project. Here's more:
According to the Wall Street Journal, the studio is now searching for an actress to replace Holmes in the big budget picture, the salary for which will likely be in the $1 million to $2 million range.
"Katie was offered [Dark Knight] but was unable to accept the role because of scheduling conflicts,” Julie Polkes, a spokeswoman for Holmes, tells the WSJ. “She was in the process of negotiating for another project. In addition, when she returns to work, she would like to tackle a new character."
The new project she’s leaning towards? Mad Money, a comedy about three female Federal Reserve workers who plot to pocket old currency before it's destroyed. Holmes would take a pay cut and receive only $250,000 for her role in the film, which possibly costars Queen Latifah.
$250,000 seems like a major pay cut for Katie. She probably made more money as Joey Potter. Tom has helped launch the careers of his significant others before so it's only a matter of time before she is making millions and winning Oscars. To see more of Katie leaving the CAA offices just, read more
While it may feel like everyone in Hollywood has broken up, a handful of couples were able to survive the massive break-up wave of 2006. Many of them even showed up at the SAG Awards to remind us that love can last in Hollywood. The show itself was kind of a snore. They should have spiced it up by having an award for Cutest Celebrity Couple. We know whom we would have voted for. What do you think?
Well, it's the moment for which you have all been waiting almost two...whole...weeks--the Kevin Federline Super Bowl commercial. I know, I know, please try to contain yourself. Your screaming and crying is a little bit awkward. So, enjoy it. Nationwide is totally on K-Fed's side. Are you?
Mischa Barton may have turned 21 last week (finally, someone will let the girl have a drink), but it wasn't the joyful affair it should have been. Rumor has it that Mischa's big night was marred by the death of a family pet. At least she had her puppy Ziggy in New York to help console her. Here's more:
RUMORS were swirling after Mischa Barton showed up an hour and a half late to her 21st-birthday dinner at Graydon Carter's Waverly Inn on Thursday night. Barton's table sat at 9 p.m., but the b-day girl, in a flowing white dress, didn't show until 10:30. Her guests were not angered but saddened to learn that the delay had been caused by the death of the starlet's family dog, Bean. Still up for celebrating, though, Barton ended the night with a bash at the Gramercy Park Hotel's Rose Bar.
Hopefully Mischa was able to pull it together and take her requisite 21-year-old tequila shots. Otherwise, how would Mischa initiate herself into the world of drinking? Right.

Kate Moss was all smiles leaving the SingStar Take That Extravaganza in London. She took a casual approach to the night, opting for patent leather flats and mismatched blacks.
