Patrick Dempsey and Michelle Monaghan looked adorably casual for TRL yesterday then cleaned up quite nicely for the premiere of Made of Honor in NYC. It's only appropriate that they got dressed to the nines for the red carpet, since it wasn't just about celebrity photo ops — one couple won the contest to get married at the premiere! The ceremony was officiated by Entertainment Tonight's Mary Hart and included a Honeymoon in Paris and dance lessons. Patrick commented, "I'm sure the couple's going to remember this for the rest of their lives." Well, congrats to the newlyweds and while we're on the topic don't miss all our wonderful wedding coverage on IDoSugar!

Straight-faced was the word — other than Ashlee Simpson (best PR week EVER!) — at last night's Conde Nast Traveler 8th Annual Hot List party in NYC. Pete wasn't by her side, but of course Ash wore a loose LBD for the soirée, wouldn't want to stop the chatter after all. Cutie Damien Fahey and a stern Milo Ventimiglia were also solo for the red carpet while Adrien Brody (love him) had his hot little girlfriend Elsa Pataky cozied up next to him. Ashlee isn't ready to put the story to rest publicly admit the pregnancy (or not, whatever), but she's certainly not shy with that new ring of hers.

Despite your opinion of The View co-host, Elisabeth Hasselbeck's conservative opinions, we can all agree that when she came back after giving birth to Taylor (now 3-months-old), Hasselbeck looked great! What's her story? I thought I would die if I heard another celeb tell me it just melted off with breastfeeding so it was refreshing to hear what she had to say.

Here are highlights:

The talk show host arrived at the [JC Penney's American Living clothing line] launch with her husband, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Tim Hasselbeck — and showed no sign of the baby weight.

"I've been working out like a crazy women!" she admitted. "Lots of hard work. I'm trying."

Hasselbeck — who also has her hands full with their 2-year-old daughter, Grace — said she never tires of the strenuous workouts. "That's my vacation," she explained. "Are you kidding? That's the only time I get to myself. [My personal trainer] is like, you get to run six miles today. And I'm like, thank you!"
