Rachel Is One of the Lucky Ones, Even Without Ryan

Molly — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 07:05:00 -0700

Rachel McAdams looked radiant and boho chic at the Toronto Film Festival premiere of The Lucky Ones last night. She arrived solo in the late Summer dusk, but I'd like to think that Mr. Gosling has a little something to do with that big smile of hers. Ever since the amazing photos of them back together kissing at lunch we've been waiting for our next McAdams/Gosling moment, which joins The Time Traveler's Wife on the list of things we're excited to see from Rachel.

Rachel McAdams Brightens Up the TIFF

PopSugar — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 11:30:34 -0700

It was another day of red carpets at the Toronto Film Festival, and this time there were a few new stars to add to the mix. Rachel McAdams was a welcome - but sadly date-free - fresh face at the premiere of Che, as was Emmanuelle Chriqui in her cute LBD. Mark Ruffalo and Adrien Brody goofed around while Rachel Weisz looked gorgeous in her bandage dress as the trio kept on promoting The Brothers Bloom. Paris and Benji were happy to pose together there as expected to check out a screening of Paris, Not France, the documentary which features both members of the happy couple.

The TIFF Keeps the Party Going

PopSugar — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 10:30:38 -0700

The Toronto Film Festival soldiered on yesterday, and Matt Damon's OneXOne Gala was just one of the many events. Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale looked gorgeous in white at the premiere of Easy Virtue and a press conference for Nothing but the Truth, respectively. Mark Ruffalo looked like he was having a ball with costars Rachel Weisz and Adrien Brody at an afterparty for The Brothers Bloom. Even Paris and Benji made the trip up to Canada in the name of partying, hitting the This Monday at Ultra party with Paris's canned prosecco in hand, naturally.

There are a lot more photos including Len Wiseman, Scott Speedman, and Colin Firth so just read more.

Matt Damon Cares About the Children More Than Ever

Molly — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 07:45:00 -0700

Matt Damon smiled right alongside the African Children's Choir at the OneXOne Gala in Toronto last night. Lat year Matt had Ben's big grin right there with him but this time Damon is rolling solo at the Toronto Film Festival. About the event and his commitment to it, Damon said, "At a certain point it becomes difficult to look at other children and not see your own. . . Something does change in you once you become a parent. . . There definitely is a shift there that makes you, I think, a little more obsessed about helping children. . . But it's not like before I had kids, I was like: 'to heck with those kids!"' I can't imagine Matt, who seems like the nicest guy in Hollywood, ever saying to heck with anyone, but it's clear that his newly expanded family of ladies have changed his already great big-hearted perspective for the better.

Baby-Faced Matt Damon Hits TIFF For OneXOne Gala

PopSugar — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 11:00:04 -0700

Matt Damon has been MIA for the past few weeks enjoying family time after the birth of new baby girl Gia, but he stepped back out on the red carpet this weekend to join in on the star-studded fun at the Toronto Film Festival. He's there to talk about a documentary he produced called The People Speak, but there's always a little time between events to sign autographs for the fans. Tonight he'll once again take on hosting duties at the OneXOne Gala, a fundraiser for domestic and global children's charities. Last year he had the help of his BFF Ben, and we can't wait to see who will rally behind Matt and his good cause this time around.

TIFF Gives VMAs a Run For Its Money

PopSugar — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 06:00:03 -0700

The MTV VMAs may have been the talk of the town, but the Toronto Film Festival proved to be just as star-studded. Jennifer Aniston looked fabulous as usual in her mini black dress for Management, while Keira Knightley looked like royalty once again on the red carpet for The Duchess. Brad Pitt showed off his Burn After Reading and talked about how little sleep he's getting these days taking care of six kids. Dakota Fanning wowed us in her black number, looking so pretty and grown-up at the premiere of The Secret Life of Bees with costar Jennifer Hudson.

Mark Ruffalo pulled double duty for Blindness with Julianne Moore and The Brothers Bloom with Adrien Brody, while Anne Hathway looked gorgeous continuing promotions for Rachel Getting Married. Of course, it wouldn't be a festive weekend without a few parties, and Kate Hudson, Diddy, and Lindsay Lohan were just a handful of stars who had plenty of fun without any movies of their own to endorse.

Jeremy Piven Wants to be the "Jewish Michael Phelps"

PopSugar — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 13:30:57 -0700

After walking the red carpet in London, the RocknRolla crew flew over to Canada for their Toronto Film Festival premiere last night. The movie got a good review from PopSugar UK, and the cast looked like they were having a blast messing around with each other. After chatting with Jeremy at the Entourage premiere, we know he loves to joke around, talking about his Broadway debut and what is coming up for Ari in the new season. Here's more from what he told us on Wednesday night:

On Entourage: "I think this particular dynamic is really interesting because its a bunch of guys with a NY sensibility, where they speak the truth to each other as they know it, and it can be tough love at times and really really brutal, but no matter what their status is they are going to give it to you straight and I think there’s something very endearing about that."
On filming in NYC: "I love it. I wish I could film everything here to be honest with you. I’m actually going to start rehearsing on Monday. I’m doing Broadway around the corner. I’m doing Speed-the-Plow. It’s basically my Olympics. I’m doing eight shows a week and I just want to be the Jewish Michael Phelps."
On Ari changing in the upcoming season: "I think that the audience will see other sides to him that I’ve always thought existed - the complete dedication and love for his family . . . the fact that when he takes mushrooms in the desert and is peaking. He’s completely lost and without Lloyd he’ll never make it home. So that happens and that’s one of the greatest moments I’ve ever been able to play in my life. I’ve done a great deal of research."

While Jeremy called his Broadway experience "the role of a lifetime," we can't wait to see him back playing Ari alongside the boys when Entourage returns on Sunday.

Biggest Headlines of 2008: The Return of Jennifer vs. Angelina

Molly — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 11:00:36 -0800

We've been counting down the biggest headlines of 2008, and we'll be revealing more throughout the month of December. We hope you enjoy this look back at some of the posts and stories that created the most buzz throughout the year.

Let it be said that we at PopSugar firmly believe that one can be on both Team Jolie and Team Aniston. We'd much rather go out for girls' night on the town or spa day with Jen, but there is something beautiful and intriguing about the work Angelina has done for the world and the family she helped create. The truth is, however, not everyone feels this way, and no one in the world can sell a cover like these two women - especially when they're talking about each other. This Fall, with movies to promote and magazine covers to score, they both did just that.

This round of hoopla started late in the Summer, after Angelina had given birth to the twins, who made even bigger headlines than Shiloh two years earlier. The Jolie-Pitts were happily living in the South of France, until the press realized that both Brad and recently single Jennifer Aniston were scheduled to be at the Toronto Film Festival. While the former husband and wife did not see each other while screening their movies, the spark was lit again and it was only going to get hotter. To read the rest of what happened this Autumn, just read more.

Just a few weeks later, Angelina kicked off an epic set of interviews to promote The Changeling. We had heard that Brad was photographing his family for the November cover of W magazine, but no one was quite ready for what it would look like. The controversial breastfeeding cover was polarizing, to say the least, and gave us a very intimate look at the life of the Jolie-Pitts. Just a few weeks earlier, Jolie debuted her post-baby body and movie to much praise in NYC and sat down for a few interviews.

It was one in particular with the New York Times that stood out - in it she talked about her and Brad's children someday being able to watch the movie where their parents fell in love. Gasp. For years she and Brad had tiptoed around the timeline of his marriage to Jennifer ending and their relationship starting, and while Angelina did not say anything physical happened, it was an admission of something. In the midst of this, she took a trip to Afghanistan just fueling rumors about how well she orchestrates her image.

Just a few weeks later, it was Jennifer's turn to hit the interview circuit starting to get everyone excited for Marley & Me. Right before the storm, she got back together with John Mayer, but that didn't keep it from getting interesting. The first, and most headline-making, article was Vogue, which exclaimed on the cover that Jennifer said, "What Angelina did was uncool." When the full article came out, it was clear that the comment was taken out of context, and she was referring to a particular quote years ago, but the media still picked it up and ran with it as a comment about Angelina and Brad's relationship.

Since then, Jennifer called out Vogue in Oprah and in Entertainment Weekly, but the interview still caused a deluge of magazine covers implying that the women were at it again - all the while with Brad getting none of the blame, naturally. Meanwhile, Jennifer and John Mayer were back together and happy as ever.

With The Changeling getting award season buzz and Marley & Me sure to be a beloved holiday hit, both women are in amazing places in their careers right now. They're committed to charity work - be it overseas or with kids at home. Both women are in loving relationships that seem to make them happy. While there may be truth to bad blood between them - I mean, how could there not be? - and they seem about as different as two movie stars can be, both Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie are incredible and ground-breaking females. The end of 2008 proved to open up old wounds in fans and, doubtlessly, the stars themselves, but here's to 2009 celebrating more love and success for both Angelina and Jen. There's no need to Pitt these two strong women against each other, and as Miss Aniston mentioned there's no cattiness necessary.

Lindsay and Samantha Have a Lot to Say About Sarah Palin

Molly — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 07:05:00 -0700

Lindsay Lohan and Samatha Ronson made another whirlwind trip to the Toronto Film Festival where Samantha spun Friday for the second weekend in a row before the girls headed back to LA and LL was already on her way out on Sunday. It's a mystery how Lindsay is still standing and smiling - it's exhausting just thinking about her schedule - she still found time to talk politics on her blog. Lindsay and Samantha collaborated for this weekend's diatribe against Sarah Palin. Here is some of what they had to say:

I really cannot bite my tongue anymore when it comes to Sarah Palin.

I couldn't be more supportive of a woman in office, but let's face it, it comes down to the person, and their beliefs, male or female.

Is it a sin to be gay? Should it be a sin to be straight? Or to use birth control? Or to have sex before marriage? Or even to have a child out of wedlock?

I find it quite interesting that a woman who now is running to be second in command of the United States, only 4 years ago had aspirations to be a television anchor. Which is probably all she is qualified to be... Also interesting that she got her passport in 2006.. And that she is not fond of environmental protection considering she's FOR drilling for oil in some of our protected land.... Well hey, if she wants to drill for oil, she should DO IT IN HER OWN backyard. This really shows me her complete lack of real preparation to become the second most powerful person in this country.

Hmmmm-All of this gets me going-Fear, Anxiety, Concern, Disappointment, and Stress come into play...

Is our country so divided that the Republicans best hope is a narrow minded, media obsessed homophobe?

There's a lot more, so to see how Lindsay and Samantha concluded their essay just read more

I know that the most important thing about this election is that people need to exercise their right to vote, regardless of their choice... I would have liked to have remained impartial, however I am afraid that the "lipstick on a pig" comments will overshadow the issues and the fact that I believe Barack Obama is the best choice, in this election, for president...

Palin's Desire to "save and convert the gays"-really??

I feel it's necessary for me to clarify that I am not against Sarah Palin as a mother or woman.

Women have come a long way in the fight to have the choice over what we do with our bodies... And its frightening to see that a woman in 2008 would negate all of that.

Oh, and...Hint Hint Pali Pal- Don't pose for anymore tabloid covers, you're not a celebrity, you're running for office to represent our, your, my COUNTRY!

And in the words of Pamela Anderson, "She can suck it"..

Lindsay- "I have faith that this country will be all that it can be with the proper guidance. I really hope that all of you make your decisions based on the facts and what feels right to you in your heart-vote for obama!"

Samantha- "I love this country- however i wasn't born here and don't have the right to vote- so i beg of you all to really do your research and be educated when you cast your vote this coming november.... and if you're in doubt- vote for obama! Mainly because if she gets elected my green card probably won't get renewed!!!"

xoxo
Lindsay and Samantha
