Eva Longoria brought a splash of color to the carpet in a bright orange Victoria Beckham shift dress, as did Sofia Vergara in red.

Kelly Rowland took home the accolade for best TV personality and Avengers star Tom Hiddleston was on hand to accept the man of the year trophy.

Baby's Debut: Celebrity Tots' First Official Photos

Rebecca M Gruber — Wed, 30 May 2012 05:35:58 PDT

Hello Maxwell Drew Johnson! Jessica Simpson and her fiancé Eric Johnson welcomed baby Maxwell one month ago, and the couple is showing off their happy family on the cover of the upcoming People magazine, where the headline reads, "She's everything to me!." Baby Maxwell joins a long line of celebrity tots who've made their public debut through some careful planning by their parents.

For a long time running, it seemed People had a monopoly on introductory celebaby photos. Nicole Richie, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez, and the Jolie–Pitts all turned to the well-established magazine to show off their newest family members. However, today, many celebs are turning to competitors who are doling out generous offerings to new parents. Others are releasing their own photos - either on their own or through photo agencies - to bypass the whole magazine scenario. See how your favorite Tinseltown parents debuted their lil ones and tell us how you think the newest Hollywood babies will be introduced to us!

Hannah Weil — Tue, 22 May 2012 10:13:00 PDT

Her jean topper is just the thing to toughen up her easy day dress, giving it just the right dose of cool.

Jessica Alba Adds Some Glamour to the Business World in a Photo Shoot Celebrating The Honest Company

Rebecca M Gruber — Fri, 18 May 2012 16:51:57 PDT

She's much more than just a pretty face! Jessica Alba knew she was on to something when she couldn't find a cute, affordable, and eco-friendly diaper after Honor Marie, 3½, was born. And it looks like other people are on to her now too. Jessica, through her founding of The Honest Company, was just recognized as one of the 100 most creative people in business by Fast Company magazine. The actress, activist, and mom of two (lil Haven is 9 months old) posed in a beautiful photo shoot for the magazine, both with and without her daughters, and spoke about the inspiration for her latest venture. Among the parts of the interview that didn't make it into the magazine were her desire to shake up kiddie design and the obstacles she's overcome to get this far.

On incorporating modern design elements: Your baby is so cute, and you have to put a diaper on, and all of a sudden, it's like, wait, there's a paper bag on my baby's bottom! So once we got the effectiveness of our diapers down, I was like, "Why not make it cool?" I have tattoos, I have piercings, I grew up on MTV, I am a global citizen, I've been connected to the Internet pretty much my whole life; I feel like there's no company that speaks to me as a modern mom. I wanted to appeal to different types of aesthetics out there. So for boys' diapers - my partners thought I was completely cuckoo bananas - but we have skulls on a diaper, because I'm obsessed with Alexander McQueen and he makes skulls beautiful. And they were like, "Skulls on babies? No way!" And it's been one of our number one sellers, because people even like them on their girls, believe it or not. So we had anchors, as well, for the more traditional mom, and gingham.

On the whirlwind of creating a new company: I've been through lots of trials and tribulations, and I've learned a lot, and I now appreciate the uphill battle and struggle, because it forced me to be more tenacious and more focused and more passionate than I ever imagined that I could have been. I think that was probably the biggest lesson that I've learned.

Jessica Alba Talks Trading Her Sexy Image For Motherhood in Marie Claire

Meghan Rooney — Tue, 15 May 2012 09:51:08 PDT

Jessica Alba shows some skin in a Versus dress on the cover of Marie Claire's June issue, which hits newsstands Tuesday, May 22. The mother of two turned 31 last month and seems to enjoy the juggling act that comes with motherhood and stardom. She recently stepped out in a Michael Kors number at the Met Gala in NYC and mingled with other famous faces at the star-studded White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington DC. Jessica will also appear in a new film, A.C.O.D., set to be released sometime in 2012. In the magazine, Jessica opens up about her early career image, how she has changed since becoming a mom, and her former sexy self. Here's more from Jessica Alba in Marie Claire:

On her early career image: "I had a show, Fox’s Dark Angel, that premiered when I was 19. And right away, everyone formed a strong opinion about me because of the way I was marketed. I was supposed to be sexy, this tough action girl. That’s what people expected…I felt like I was being objectified, and it made me uncomfortable. I wanted to be chic and elegant!"
On how she has changed since motherhood: "Now that I’m older, I’ve learned how to own it, but I’m still not very overt. There are some women who dress for men. I dress for myself. It took me some time to get here. Being a mom and feeling grown-up have helped. Now if I’m going to wear something short, it has to have a high neck or a little sci-fi toughness to it, an edge."
On her former sexy self: "I like to get positive attention. But if I have a choice between someone noticing in a negative way what I’m wearing and going, What was she thinking? or someone not noticing what I’m wearing, I would rather not make a statement at all and just have a good conversation instead."

Jessica Alba Always Wanted to Be a Mom, Did You?

Rebecca M Gruber — Fri, 11 May 2012 13:36:36 PDT

It's Mother's Day weekend and the talk show hosts are pulling out all the stops to remind us (and hopefully our husbands) just how amazing we moms are. Over on Anderson, the host and his own mother Gloria Vanderbilt surprised Jessica Alba and her mom with a sweet video message from the actress and healthy living advocate's husband and kids, Honor, 3, and Haven, 8 months, whom she hadn't seen in five days.

During the conversation about Jessica's new eco-friendly baby care line, The Honest Company, she told Anderson that she always wanted to be a mom, saying, "I always knew I was going to be a mom, and then when I found out I was pregnant and I was going to be a mom I had this awakening that I wanted to protect my child from everything that I possibly could." How about you?
