Mandy Premieres Her Dedication

PopSugar — Wed, 15 Aug 2007 00:15:35 -0700

Mandy looked like a vamped up version of herself at the Dedication premiere in NYC last night. While we're a huge fan of the actress, we're not loving this harsh look. We bet her costar Billy Crudup wasn't into it much either. Mandy makes him look so tiny as she towers over him. Obviously from her big smile we can tell they were having fun with the situation. It reminds us that she's still her wholesome self. In fact, Mandy recently opened up to TV Guide about what sets her apart from some of Hollywood's other young stars. Here's more:

How have you been able to sidestep the troubles that have plagued Britney and Lindsay?
I think it all sort of comes down to family and having this wonderful support of people in your life. I know this sounds Pollyanna-ish, but it's not. I don't relate to that kind of lifestyle and exposure. That is never really the situation I've been in. And I feel lucky for that.

We agree that Mandy is lucky to have been able to rely on her strong family background. She's also stayed out of the scene which has helped her avoid trouble. If only LL and Brit had a support system then maybe they'd be a positive role model like Mandy.

Mandy's Film Gets Picked Up By The Weinstein Co!

PopSugar — Sat, 27 Jan 2007 16:33:50 -0800

Mandy's star is on the rise. She has a new album coming out this year and now her film Dedication has been picked up by The Weinstein Co. at Sundance. That's like hitting Sundance gold! Page Six reports:

"Distributors were in a fierce battle," said a source, but Weinstein secured the deal "at 4 a.m." Harvey Weinstein was huddled earlier in a corner of the Lotus Lounge at Hollywood Life House with the film's director, Justin Theroux, for hours. Moore was there as well, sealing her own deal with DJ AM. "The two were making out on the couch," said our spy. The Weinstein Co. also acquired "Grace Is Gone," starring John Cusack, for $4 million, as well as "Teeth" and "La Misma Luna." Reps for Weinstein confirmed all four picture deals.

Congrats to Mandy and her team on that deal. As for the DJ AM part, well I guess we're just happy Mandy is smiling again. More pictures of Mandy looking pretty for David Letterman, so just read more

Mandy is a Good Girl, not a Goody-Goody

PopSugar — Wed, 24 Jan 2007 12:00:45 -0800

Mandy is up in Park City and managed to sneak away from her new beau, DJ AM to get some promo pics taken for her film Dedication, which also stars Billy Crudup. Could she get any cuter? Mandy may have a squeaky clean reputation, but she set some things straight in the February issue of Jane magazine. In addition to saying that she hated her past pop albums and that she's recently suffered from depression she also made it clear that she isn't your typical good girl. Here's highlights:

On why she doesn’t drink:
“I’m a control freak, and I think maybe that’s why. I’m too scared to see what will happen. I’ve been drunk maybe two or three times in my life, although I do like to have a glass of wine before going into the studio, to mellow me out.”
On her image:
“I kind of am a goody-goody. But I’m not judgmental. I’ve done a couple of movies [A Walk to Remember, Saved] where I’ve played Christian characters, so people assume I’m very religious. It’s not a completely correct perception of who I am.”
On the future:
“I’m still figuring it all out, but I want to be extraordinary. I want to live up to my full potential. I’ve always been really shy, very ‘don’t look at me.’ I’ve wanted to hide. But now I don’t want to hide.”

She seems to be pretty extraordinary to us! I mean, she's managed to grow up in the spotlight without totally losing her mind (or her underwear). And she may be a good girl but not in an annoyingly, oh just shut-up kind of way. Young Hollywood needs more people like her. We are always up for more Mandy. For more pics just read more

Ashley Greene Has the Party Scene Covered

PopSugar — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 07:45:00 -0800

Ashley Greene was in NYC last night to celebrate her December Maxim spread at the club Avenue. She gushed about the cover, saying, "I absolutely adore it and I don't think it could have come out any better for me. I'm very much a Jacksonville beach girl. I love jean shorts, T-shirts, the beach." It's been a busy week for Ashley, even though the rest of her New Moon costars are taking things easy after their successful box office debut. She was in an interesting outfit from Bottega Veneta's resort collection for her Monday appearance on the Late Show, where she opened up about being an accident prone child. Ashley's dedicated to doing as much promotion as she can for her blockbuster movie, but hopefully she'll settle in for the next few days to enjoy Thanksgiving with family and friends.

Britney Spears continued to enjoy the sights of Australia today as she brought Sean Preston and Jayden James out to explore the Sydney Aquarium and a wildlife park.

Britney performed her second of four shows in the city last night, and she has two days off before she takes the stage again. She's spending some of her downtime playing with her new "It's Britney!" iPhone app and checking out fan photos. Britney's also gearing up for the release of her greatest hits album on November 24th, and MTV is dedicating time before it hits shelves to a retrospective of her career.

Robert, Kristen, Taylor and the Whole New Moon Cast Hit the Red Carpet at Their Big LA Premiere!

Molly — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 04:55:00 -0800

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner were the last New Moon stars to arrive on the red carpet in LA last night, but the crowds were happy to wait for the big three! They all looked fantastic - especially Kristen in her gorgeous Oscar de la Renta and sexy hair, who stopped to talk about how happy she was to be at an event with the fans. She said she doesn't have a favorite of all the hot dresses she's worn while out promoting the movie, but fell in love with this one when she saw it. Robert greeted all the fans with a huge smile, excitedly signing autographs for as many people as he could. He flashed an adorable smile to us when they announced Kristen's arrival right behind him, though the two were spread out and didn't pose on the red carpet together. The signs all over the event were amazing, showing the dedication of the Twilight lovers some of whom camped out for days before the big event.

Jennie Garth accompanied her husband Peter Facinelli, but joked that the scene she was most excited to see was Robert Pattinson shirtless! Always the understanding partner, Peter said that he sees where she's coming from since she's seen him shirtless thousands of times. Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene hit the premiere at almost the same time, meeting up on the red carpet for some interviews - though at one point he stepped on her train, whoops! Nikki Reed and Elizabeth Reaser were excited to see each other and Dakota Fanning stood tall in her sky-high heels. Kristen happily posed with Joan Jett and Dakota after they all worked together on The Runaways. The whole cast was so excited to see so many fans out to support the movie and for it finally to be released this Friday. We've got tons of video from the premiere coming up on PopSugar Rush so stay tuned!

Are You Buying It That Gerard Butler Is a Huge Ladies' Man?

PopSugar — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 12:00:00 -0700

Gerard Butler is no stranger to a rumored romance, and his latest conquest is said to be none other than Jessica Simpson. The duo allegedly only had eyes for each other during a recent dinner with friends in NYC, but a source denies the romance.

If his many supposed flings all actually happened, Gerard has been a busy man wining and dining the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Shanna Moakler, Cameron Diaz and others. It could make one wonder if Gerard truly is such a dedicated bachelor, or if someone is working behind the scenes to enhance his leading man status. So, tell us what you think - are you buying it that Gerard is a huge ladies' man?
