Daniel Has No Need For Solace at His Bond Screening

Molly — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 14:00:10 -0800

Daniel Craig has been busy premiering Quantum of Solace in Europe, and last night he finally came to the US with his girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell for a screening in NYC. While the film's female stars skipped the event, Daniel recently said any of his former co-stars like Cate Blanchett, Gwyneth Paltrow or Nicole Kidman would make great Bond girls for future installments. He wasn't lacking in female company last night, though - Becki Newton, Debra Messing and Molly Sims all took a stroll down the red carpet. They were later joined by a sexy-looking and solo-rolling Jon Hamm at the after party, adding just a little extra hotness to the already star-studded evening.

To see more from their action-packed evening, including Robert De Niro and Julia Stiles, just read more.

Daniel Craig Has Some Princely Help Premiering Newest Bond

Molly — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 05:00:00 -0700

Daniel Craig found a way to make his injured arm look dashing at last night's royal London Quantum of Solace screening. The world premiere brought out some very special royalty indeed - Princes William and Harry both graced the red carpet looking dapper in their tuxes. Ever the polite Bond, Craig still found a way to shake William's hand. Craig had to field questions about the accident while filming that left him with an immobile wing but when asked about his favorite Bond girl, he had the perfect answer saying, "The one on my arm of course," about his lucky girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell. The intense looking Bond installment hits theaters in a little over two weeks and while seeing more of Daniel Craig will be a treat, I unfortunately don't think those handsome princes will be making the premieres with him.

To see more from the premiere including Daniel Craig, Lily Allen, Judi Dench, Jack White, Elle Macpherson and others just read more.

Paris Hilton filled her tank up with gas in LA on Thursday afternoon before getting dressy for a screening of Quantum of Solace that night with Benji. By early the next morning, though, she was back in her white velour tracksuit to hit LAX with some McDonald's. She's been racking up the frequent flier miles as usual lately, and with her business in the UK and a NYE bash planned in Australia, it doesn't look like she'll have any rest soon.
