Diddy and His Costars Bring Their Raisin Into The Sun
I owe Diddy an apology. I've been giving him some flack over the past couple of days that he is only at Sundance to promote his vodka, though he is in fact in town to premiere a pretty big film at the festival, the newest version of A Raisin in the Sun, alongside Phylicia Rashad, John Stamos, and Audra McDonald. To be fair, he did spend a good amount of time with that vodka of his.
Celebrities (and Sightings) Still Cycling Through Sundance
While my exhausted tail returned to San Francisco last night, the fun rolls on at Sundance with a whole new group of celebs coming into town to brave the cold and show off their movies. Other than Diddy, who was mostly there to show off his vodka. Lukas Haas separated himself from Leonardo DiCaprio long enough to premiere his movie, Death in Love which Buzz and I saw last night — totally disturbing (though Adam Brody was really cute in it) — before also seeing him out to breakfast this morning.
Charlize and Stuart Sleepwalk With Sundance Smiles
Charlize Theron walked the red carpet as both star and producer of her new movie Sleepwalking at Sundance yesterday with Stuart on her arm. Unfortunately, Buzz, who was there for the screening, didn't have a rave review for the piece...but of course Charlize looked stunning for the event. Leave it to her to make bundling up for freezing weather look sunny and glamorous.
On A Day of Highs and Lows, Sundances On
While the afternoon took a noticeably somber turn as the news of Heath Ledger's tragic death spread over snowy Park City, the morning was for celebrating as Oscar nomination news came to Sundance. While a lot of the celebrities left with the end of MLK day weekend, there was still swag to be scored for some of them. I was lucky enough to stop by the Pure & Natural Celebrity Eco-Retreat and Iconix "Gift Giving For A Cause" Suite benefiting Save the Children to see all the goodies the celebrities have been snatching up as souvenirs.
Sundance Welcomes a New Side of Kirsten Dunst
Kirsten Dunst came to Sundance this year not as an actress premiering a movie, but as a first time director showing off her short Welcome. The movie premiered on Friday, so by the weekend it was all smooth sailing and hanging out on Main Street taking in all the sights and parties. While Kirsten's film isn't one of the options, you can check out some of the other Sundance Shorts free online over the next ten days (and buy others on iTunes).
Sundance Party-Goers Rally Through Weekend No. 1
The first long weekend of Sundance drew to a close last night and celebrities big, small and everything in between are still descending on the town in droves. Naturally Paris (who I saw again on Sunday night...figure that would be my only multiple sighting while in Park City) is still making her presence known all over — and showing off those pipes with some karaoke. She also had some gushing to do about Nicole's choice of baby name.
SJP and Matthew Have Lots To Celebrate at Sundance
It was back to back nights of Sundance premieres for the Sarah Jessica Parker/Matthew Broderick power couple with Sunday bringing out her Smart People and Sunday featuring his Diminished Capacity. Both actors were happy to accompany their other halves to the big premieres — awwww. While I've heard good things about SJP's project with Dennis Quaid and Thomas Haden Church, I was actually there to see Matthew's movie last night.
SJP Is a Smart Person at Sundance
Sarah Jessica Parker made freezing Park City look downright manageable in her cute jacket and boots around town before the big Sundance premiere of her movie Smart People last night. Thanks to our friends at EW, I got to sit in and see SJP and her co-stars in the movie Dennis Quaid and Thomas Haden Church banter about their movie yesterday afternoon at their portrait studio. They were incredibly cute and funny as a trio, but I will say that Haden Church stole the show.
Jessica and Cash Hit Snowy Sundance
Jessica and Cash got all bundled up to brave the freezing temperatures of Park City for the Sundance Film Festival this weekend. Jess wasn't there to promote any of her own films, but she does have The Eye hitting theaters in a couple weeks so it's always good for celebs to make appearances to remind us of what's to come. Alba also looks to have found some spare time to engage in other aspects of Sundance finest — shopping and swag.
Sundance Brings Out the Stars
While our girls Molly and Buzz are checking out all the goodness at the Sundance Film Festival, Park City has been chock full of celebrities showing off their new films. Emily Blunt joined cute father/son duo Tom and Colin Hanks at the premiere of The Great Buck Howard, while Bono and his fellow bandmates supported their U2 3D. Adorable Elle Fanning held her own at the premiere of Phoebe In Wonderland, and Jack Black was unsurprisingly perfectly comfortable showing off his dark roots for his new movie Be Kind Rewind.
