Heidi and Seal Bring Their Kids to Sit Courtside at a Lakers Game With Tom and Sacha

Katie Henry — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 13:38:13 PST

The Staples Center was full of celebrities on Friday night with Diddy, Hilary Swank, and Sacha Baron Cohen there to cheer on the Lakers as they beat the Hornets 101-97. Inception's Tom Hardy was also on hand, though his new pal Lindsay Lohan didn't join him at the game - she was courtside last night with jewelry design Pascal Mouwad. It was a group outing for the Klum-Samuels, though Heidi and Seal didn't bring baby Lou along. Heidi's fun-loving older children may make their way onto one of her new shows called Seriously Funny Kids, which is set to premiere Feb. 1 on Lifetime, the same network that airs Project Runway and its upcoming spin-off Project Runway: Accessories.

Watch, Pass, or Rent: How Do You Know

PopSugarTV — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 15:12:40 PST

How do you find out if Reese Witherspoon's latest romantic comedy, How Do You Know, is a good movie to catch in theaters? Watch our movie review!

How Do You Know: Simply Irresistible

Becky Kirsch — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 02:00:35 PST

A truly great romantic comedy is hard to come by these days. All too often we're subjected to tired cliches, overused personality types, and slapstick comedy in the place of a predictable but uplifting movie about love. With that said, How Do You Know is the rare gem of a love story that has all the right moves: big laughs, enchanting characters, and a sweet aftertaste.

The latest from writer/director James L. Brooks (As Good as it Gets) centers on Lisa (Reese Witherspoon) and George (Paul Rudd), as they each face a road block in their thirty-something lives. Lisa, an aging softball player who believes strongly in age-old affirmations, has just been cut from the national team and is struggling to figure out how to spend her time, and more important, whom to spend it with. George, a goofy good guy, thinks he has it all together until he's subpoenaed at work for suspicion of stock fraud and is facing the real possibility of facing jail time for a crime he didn't commit.

To find out why this film is worth seeing, just

George and Lisa's first meeting is adorably awkward: after getting her number from a friend, he calls to tell Lisa that he just started a new relationship so he can't take her out; but the friend in common never even told Lisa that George existed. In turn, Lisa starts seeing Matty (Owen Wilson), a pitcher for the Nationals. Matty redefines playboy (he's got a drawer of perfectly arranged spare toothbrushes and a closet full of pink "morning after" hoodies), but he's so refreshingly honest about his ways that Lisa can't stay away. Wilson pounces on Matty's naivete, turning a character who could be otherwise insufferable into a scene-stealing charmer. He's got as much enthusiasm as a newborn puppy, and Matty's simple mind is a perfect foil to Lisa's over-thinking brain, make them an unmatched but believable pair.

In fact, the heart of the movie lies in the fact that there are redeeming factors in Lisa's relationship with Matty and her relationship with George. Matty represents a perfect distraction from Lisa's second-guessing and questions about her future, while her friendship with George forces her to face her fears rather than to run away from them. Though it's clear from the start who Lisa will ultimately end up with, it's refreshing to see that the other guy isn't just a jerk you can't wait to see receive his comeuppance.

The beauty of How Do You Know is that it doesn't have to work hard. Rudd, Wilson, and Witherspoon have comedic chemistry in spades, and Jack Nicholson is just the icing on the cake as George's father. As wide-eyed George, Rudd has the ability to make you melt in every scene - including those that tackle George's serious problems. His job, his love life, and his relationship with his father are a mess, but George's self-deprecation (and self-medication) are rife for humor. Never before has watching someone's downward spiral felt so delightful, and George is the buffoon you can't help but love.

How Do You Know is an old fashioned romantic comedy: if you're looking for raunchy humor and awkwardly funny sex scenes, you won't find 'em here. But, if you're in the market for a film that makes you feel good without insulting your intelligence, then you've come to the right place.

Reese Witherspoon Keeps Owen and Paul Close While Chatting About Robert Pattinson at How Do You Know

Molly Goodson — Tue, 14 Dec 2010 09:15:00 PST

Reese Witherspoon picked a black and pink strapless Zac Posen dress for her LA premiere of How Do You Know last night. She posed with her leading men Paul Rudd and Owen Wilson, though her real-life love, Jim Toth, skipped the red carpet. He's partially responsible for keeping that big smile on her face, of course, and she was coming off another relaxing weekend with Jim and her kids, Ava and Deacon. Paul Rudd was fresh from NYC, where he hosted SNL, and he spoke about how exciting it was to hang out with the episode's musical guest, Paul McCartney. Owen Wilson revealed that it was Reese who encouraged him to join the movie and joked that he knows he's not in love when a girl calls and he presses the "ignore" button on his phone. Reese got a bit beat up on the set of this film, which is her return to the big screen after two years off. Still, she had nothing but glowing things to say about the experience making How Do You Know and also poured compliments on another of her hot recent costars, Robert Pattinson. She has gushed about Rob before, and this time she stacked up the experiences working with Robert, Owen, and Paul. Check out everything she had to say about Rob and more from yesterday's screening on PopSugar Rush!

Reese Talks Bad Dates and Affirmations at Her How Do You Know Junket With Paul, Jack, and Owen

Allie Merriam — Mon, 06 Dec 2010 04:00:00 PST

Reese Witherspoon joined her How Do You Know costars Owen Wilson, Paul Rudd, and Jack Nicholson yesterday for a press conference in NYC during their weekend-long junket with writer-director James L. Brooks. Reese and the boys laughed their way through the questions and answers, and she chatted about being stuck between Paul and Owen, and even revealed one particularly bad date from her past. Owen shared a unique tale about firing a machine gun with friends beneath an embassy's tennis court, while Paul and Jack likewise weighed in with funny anecdotes - read selected excerpts below, and stay tuned for more quotes!

Reese on bad blind dates: "I had someone correct my grammar on a blind date once, and I knew in the first ten minutes that the date was over. You just don’t correct someone’s grammar! I’m from Tennessee I probably said everything wrong. I probably said ain’t or something."
Reese on her motivations: "I’m definitely one of those people who has post-its everywhere. The six evils of the world. I really do! Desire, greed, envy. . . Try to tell myself all those things to avoid! Positive affirmations, I have to say “Judge not lest ye be judged” has guided me through life."
Reese on being unsettled like her character: "I think it’s really interesting to play a woman who can articulate that she isn’t ready to have a family - isn’t even sure she wants to have a family! I have a lot of friends like that. I think it’s a really interesting character than can say it. And I think Jim really wrote it so beautifully, that emotional honesty of someone who is not afraid to be honest about maybe not wanting what other women want. And I think there’s a lot of women out there like that. I think it’s really interesting to play a character like that. Obviously it’s not like myself, I have two kids, a very sort of settled-down life. But it was cool to play that girl."
Reese on being the filling in a Rudd/Wilson sandwich: "It’s a tough job, you know ladies, but someone’s got to do it! It was great. How lucky am I to work with two of the most talented, funny, attractive, hysterical men. It was weird too because - oh I could go on. . . Every time I’d do a scene with Owen, I’d get really attached to Owen. Then the day he had to leave I started crying out of nowhere!"

Reese on what she liked in her character's flaws: "I think what was interesting about my character is that I’ve done a lot of comedies where a woman talks a lot about her romantic dynamics, and there’s always talking about men and then what should I do? And this character is woman who has a hard time conveying her emotions and doesn’t even want to talk about things, which is sort of an interesting female character. My character says to Owen, “If I wake up in the middle of the night and start crying, just ignore me please.” What woman would ever say that in real life? But that was sort of a fascinating character for me, because I usually play verbal characters and this woman is sort of interior."
Paul on his bad blind date: "I and a friend of mine went on a double date with these two girls, and it started off we were trying to impress the girls and make each other laugh. It started off innocently enough with my friend kicking his shoe 30 feet in the air, just as we’re walking down the street, and it really struck me as funny, so then I tried to outdo him and I just jumped on a mailbox or something and kept walking. And each thing kept escalating and the girls didn’t laugh at any of these, but it ended, finally, while I was driving. I had a Jeep at the time and we were driving back and I thought it would be funny to, in the middle of conversation, jump out of the Jeep and run alongside and keep the conversation going as if it was normal. But I didn’t take into account that when you’re going slowly in a car it is still really fast. In the middle of the conversation, I just stepped out of the car and fell so hard on the road I ripped my jeans and I cut up my hands, and I felt the tire whoosh past my head and, in a split second, the car’s already 50 feet ahead of me going into a tree. And they were completely shell-shocked, and I felt so stupid, that we just drove home in silence. And that was the only date I had with them."
Reese on bad advice she’s received: "I really wanted to be a Broadway kid so I went to all these camps in the Catskills, and I had to sing and dance and act. And I remember getting through the singing session, and I had my evaluation at the end. They said, “Whatever you do, don’t sing.” And I told that story when I won an award for Walk the Line. I was like, “Thank God I didn’t listen!” But it was hard to get over that mental block because someone had told me, basically you don’t know how to do that and don’t do that. You’ve got to be careful what you say to people!"
Owen on the real machine gun story: "Somehow a friend knew somebody with one of the embassies that had a tennis court, and then when they let us on to play tennis, they had a machine gun range underneath the embassy that then they took us to shoot on."
Jack on what he does when he’s not working: "I just like getting up sometime between 11 and 1, this is not movie hours unless you’re doing night movies. Play golf. I got a couple of kids in college so I’m on the phone a lot. See my pals. Chase women around. . . Talk to my Congressman."
