Jason and Melissa Debut Identity Thief With Their Better Halves

Identity Thief stars Melissa McCarthy and Jason Bateman attended their LA premiere at Mann Village Theatre last night.

Identity Thief stars Melissa McCarthy and Jason Bateman attended their LA premiere at Mann Village Theatre last night. Both hit the red carpet with their spouses on their arms — Jason posed with his wife, Amanda Anka, and Melissa shared a kiss with her husband, Ben Falcone. Jason and Melissa also stayed close on the carpet, showing off their good friendship. Recently, Jason told us he specifically asked Melissa to star in Identity Thief because he was excited to work with her.

Jason and Melissa's costars turned out too. T.I. brought along his wife, Tameka "Tiny" Cottle, while Genesis Rodriguez wore a floor-length Raoul green gown and Amanda Peet rocked an LBD. Molly Sims, whose husband, Scott Stuber, was one of the film's producers, smiled big for the cameras as well. The big night out, which included an afterparty, comes just a few days ahead of Identity Thief's release this Friday, Feb. 8.

New Music: T.I. and Christina Aguilera's "Castle Walls"

T.I. may be detained behind prison walls right now, but he's still putting out music.

T.I. may be detained behind prison walls right now, but he's still putting out music. His next single from upcoming album No Mercy is all about feeling trapped inside another kind of jail. On "Castle Walls," Christina Aguilera lends her pipes to the mournful hook, which bemoans the loneliness of being a prisoner in a gilded cage. T.I. brings his signature smooth rap over the beat, so it doesn't feel too soft and emo. It's a powerful track, and a strong taste of No Mercy, which drops Dec. 7.

Russell Brand was joined by his Get Him to the Greek crew before heading in to watch his fiancée Katy Perry perform and the Jersey Shore sported fresh tans and lots of gel for the event. Tough guy Mark Wahlberg cracked a smile for photographers and rapper T.I. brought sexy back in his suit.

New Music: T.I. and The-Dream's "Love Again"

Rapper T.I had that pesky little personal issue of going to jail last year, but it doesn't mean that fans have to wait long for his next great single.

Rapper T.I had that pesky little personal issue of going to jail last year, but it doesn't mean that fans have to wait long for his next great single. Aside from his upcoming album King Uncaged, today we get a listen to "Love Again," a track he collaborates on with The-Dream.

It's halfway between a slow jam and an upbeat groover, and the lyrics range from the sweet ("I just want to fall in love again") to the unprintable. Definitely one to listen to with your headphones on, but if you're a T.I. lover, you're going to be looping it all day.

The Lakers beat the Denver Nuggets in a close game at the Staples Center last night, which led to animated celebrations from the star-studded crowd. Justin Timberlake stood up and danced joyously, although this time he didn't have Jessica Biel to make out with. Drew Barrymore watched the game with a friend and couldn't contain her excitement as she cheered with a priceless face. John Mayer tweeted from the audience, while loyal fan Leonardo DiCaprio and the almost jailbound T.I. also watched from the stands as the Lakers keep steaming through the playoffs.

Buzz In: What Were Your Favorite Grammy Moments?

Sunday night's Grammy Awards were so full of performances, I kept forgetting that awards were actually being handed out!

Sunday night's Grammy Awards were so full of performances, I kept forgetting that awards were actually being handed out! My personal highlight reel? Like Pop, I loved watching a very pregnant MIA getting her swagga on with Kanye, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, and TI. Lucky TI, he's actually in two of my favorite moments of the night — his duet with Justin Timberlake's the other. I also got a kick out of watching the USC marching band backing up Thom Yorke during Radiohead's performance. And I'm still wondering this morning what all that background noise was when Robert Plant and Alison Krauss accepted their final award — it couldn't have actually been booing, right?

Your turn! What were your favorite Grammy moments?

JT and T.I. Get Into Music Mode Before the Grammys

Justin Timberlake and T.I.

Justin Timberlake and T.I. boogied in their coats filming a music video in Lancaster, CA, yesterday. It was good practice for the two men, who will be performing together at this Sunday's Grammys, where they're both up for awards. T.I. is making the most of his final days before he's off to jail for a year starting in March. It has been quite a ride for the rapper recently with his hit album and activist work, and this weekend it will be memorable to see the rapper pour his heart out alongside JT before heading off to serve his time.
