Lenny Kravitz and his daughter Zoe hosted an event for Keep a Child Alive in NY over the weekend. We're big fans of Lenny and were so excited to see him and Zoe. Looks like she and Daddy Kravitz are super close. And they obviously share more than just good looks. They also are very dedicated to Keep a Child Alive which provides support to children and families with HIV/AIDS in the world's poorest countries. It's great to see the sexy rocker helping those in need and that his passion has become a family affair.
Eva Mendes, Thandie Newton and Terrence Howard all went out to a private screening of The Pursuit of Happyness in NY this weekend. We already saw Will, Jada and Jaden looking fabulous at the screening as well. In the film Will plays a struggling single parent who raises himself up to be a successful stockbroker. It's evidently supposed to be a tearjerker but we can't wait to see this movie based on a true story. The film opens December 15th.
We got to watch the show from the press room so unfortunately we missed out on seeing all of the wonderful performances but we did enjoy The Fray, Fergie and Mary J Blige who was clearly the big Billboard winner of the night. Mary J took home nine awards including Female R&B/hip-hop artist of the year. Other winners included Carrie Underwood, T.I., Chris Brown, and Tony Bennett who was presented the Billboard Century Award by Stevie Wonder. It was a fun filled night.

You have invested many hours and dollars in to getting just the right set of songs on your iPod, so wouldn't it be nice to listen to your awesome music collection in your car? Well, as it turns out there are many options available to make listening to your iPod while driving a piece of cake. Below are geekSugar's recommendations for the best ways to cruise with your tunes.
Good
Cassette adapter. If you’re still cruising in a car with a cassette player, you can get a tape adapter for $20 or less and connect it directly to the same port you stick your headphones in. The biggest drawback to this option is the wires, but it is a super easy and inexpensive alternative. The sound will be clearer than the transmitter option (below), but still a little tinny. Get one here for $19.99.
As we got the chance to meet all these fabulous, young, talented people at the Fox/Billboard media junket, we came across the very interesting and lovely Vida Guerra. The model is best known for her sexy Playboy photoshoots and music videos with the likes of Kayne West, but these days she is working on her own album and a new DVD. She also graces the cover of the latest FHM, but surprisingly, she was very disappointed in what she thought was going to be the best photoshoot ever. Vida is bothered by all of the airbrushing that goes on these days, because she says it sets unrealistic expectations for young women. So she was upset that the magazine altered her photos, making her booty look smaller and shaving a few inches from her thighs. Here's what the sexy Cuban cutie had to say to FHM on the topic.
We've been hearing great things about Penelope's new (even though she seems to have been promoting it for years now) movie Volver. She has been generating Oscar buzz and has now won the award for Best Actress at the 2006 European Film Awards. In her acceptance speech, a misty-eyed Penelope dedicated her award to Pedro Almodovar, the director of Volver and her personal mentor. Here's more:
[Penelope], whose feisty performance as Raimunda in the dark comedy is garnering Oscar buzz, picked up the Best Actress title at the European Film Awards in Warsaw. Wearing a glittering gold gown, the star held back tears as she talked about working with her mentor.
"Pedro, I love you so much," she said. "Thank you for believing in me. You're changing not only my career, but a lot of things in my life."
Singer and actress Selena Gomez posed for pictures at the 2009 American Music Awards with a pretty pink smile on her face. She took advantage of the occasion and went glam; wearing a Talbot Runhof sequin dress with black strappy heels.
