Ryan and Sandra Don't Call It a Romantic Comedy

PopSugar — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 12:30:00 -0700

Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock clowned around on the red carpet at last night's premiere of The Proposal in LA. Scarlett skipped the photo ops with her husband as usual, but Ryan had both Sandra and his mom Tammy as dates for the evening. The movie hits theaters on June 19, but according to Sandra, we shouldn't expect typical romantic comedy fare. She said,

"It reminds me of the films from like the '30s and '40s where there was a landscape and a story and drama was allowed to be in there. You can't have good comedy without drama in it. And they don’t generally write well for women in romantic comedies. I love my comedy too much to bastardize it with bad romantic comedy. So I was like, 'I'm going to find another way to work and do it in a way that I love.' So I'm not calling this a romantic comedy."

Romantic comedy or not, we're excited to see more of Ryan and Sandra's chemistry after the duo made us laugh with their Funny or Die video and at the MTV Movie Awards.

The Ladies Go Bright on the MTV Movie Awards Red Carpet

PopSugar — Sun, 31 May 2009 23:22:57 -0700

There was a lot of color on the red carpet last night at the MTV Movie Awards in LA. Audrina Patridge led the sparkly parade in her sequined gown, while Paris Hilton and Vanessa Hudgens opted for similarly bright tones. Vanessa's breezy dress matched the sunshine, though she looked a little chilly as the night started to set in. Kristen Stewart showed her tomboy side by accessorizing with Chuck Taylors, and Megan Fox slicked her hair back and sported a LBD. Leighton Meester looked amazing in her tight dress as she walked in to join her boyfriend who skipped the red carpet.

Lauren Conrad and Sandra Bullock also kept things short. Whitney Port was showing a little skin with her white dress, as was Sienna Miller, whose showstopping dress was cut low in the back. Cameron Diaz, meanwhile, went casual in blue jeans with her costar Abigail Breslin who's quite the fashionista already. All the ladies looked gorgeous, and make sure to check out Fab and Bella for all the beauty and fashion coverage from the evening.

PopSugarUK — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 04:26:52 -0800

Last night, stars flocked to Leicester Square for the premiere of one of the most anticipated movies this year - Watchmen - an adaptation of the immensely popular graphic novel. The cast of the movie, including Malin Ackerman, Billy Crudup, Matthew Goode, Carla Gugino and Jeffrey Dean Morgan showed up in their finest on the yellow, smiley-faced carpet last night, and greeted famous fans of the book including Jonathan Ross, John Thomson, gorgeous Rob Kazinsky and also Rhydian Roberts!

If you fancy checking out the book before the movie is released, you can catch up with the discussion in Buzz's book club! The film opens March 6, after a lawsuit between Fox and Warner Bros. prolonged the wait for the movie.

This Week's Fab Favorite: Malin Ackerman

FabSugar — Fri, 30 May 2008 15:00:22 -0700

I was amongst my people last night at the Chanel store opening party in LA, or so I like to think so. Chanel employees, Chanel lovers, Chanel aficionados, oh, and gorgeous actresses and models ching-chinged wearing the coveted label. It was a tough call but budding blonde and 27 Dresses star, Malin Ackerman won me over in her deep burgundy sparkly Chanel jumpsuit. Just when I thought I'd seen my fill of disco-era jumpsuits, this girl was hopping around the Chanel party in super style.

And that smile - amazing! She's like a cross between two other Fab favorites: Cameron Diaz and Kate Hudson. To top off the daring look, she chose an icey plastic Chanel clutch, black wooden platforms, and tiered diamond earrings and a cosmic cocktail ring by Chanel Fine Jewelry. She's got the look.

Behind The Seams: The Chanel Boutique Opening on Robertson

FabSugar — Fri, 30 May 2008 05:00:22 -0700

Here I am, fresh from the Chanel opening on Roberston Boulevard in LA. And boy do I have lots to dish. The store was very cool: Peter Marino designed, white block motif, outdoor courtyard, two levels, life size Chanel shoes and bags reminiscent of the Fall collection, mannequins wearing pieces from Chanel Paris-Londres Métiers d’Art Collection, bubbly flowing and PYTs galore. Spotted: Rachel Bilson, Angie Harmon, Leighton Meester, Michelle Trachtenberg, Kirsty Hume, Amber Valletta, Malin Ackerman, January Jones (from Mad Men) and Emma Roberts. Amidst all the fabulous chaos we were able to grab the witty January Jones and the adorable Emma Roberts for a few Fab words.

But first, here were the fashion highlights: Malin's sparkly Chanel jumpsuit, Bilson's hot pink sequin purse, January Jones' rebellious chain dress, Angie's coral accents and Amber Valletta's glowing skin. Alas, it wasn't all super fabulous. Fab goddess Linda Evangelista and Fabcon Kelly Wearstler were supposed to be in attendance and they weren't there - bum city. Oh well. Can I say January Jones was such a pleasure to talk to? We were seriously vibing and she was so smart and down to earth. Here she is!

Can we talk about your dress?

Of course. I went in today - I just flew in from London yesterday - so I ran in today and they know my taste and they had a couple of things picked out. I like things more on the edgy side. So, I got my chains.

And are you jet lagged?

I’m drinking my way out of it.

So Mad Men, can we talk about the wardrobe? How do you like the wardrobe, has it affected your personal style at all? How does it feel dressing in costumes of yesteryear?

I’ve always been a huge fan of vintage clothing. So the only downside is when I go shopping I can’t get anything from that’s late 50s/early 60s because then I wander around looking like Betty. I absolutely adore being in period outfits: the girdle, the stockings and the garter belts, the pointy bras. They have to add tips in there because modern women don’t have that shape. It’s interesting, it’s hard to get in and out of, but it’s fun.

Is it comfortable?

Once you’re in it it’s okay. The first couple of episodes last year you had to learn the shallow breathing. But it makes you stand differently, and you hold yourself differently.

Three words to sum up Chanel.

Ummm. Can’t live without.

Can’t live without, that is three words! Very nice!

Yeah. I would say Karl Lagerfeld, but I don’t know his middle name.

Kaiser Karl Lagerfeld?

Kaiser Karl Lagerfeld!

Have you met him?

I’ve never met him. I just read The Beautiful Fall. I know he’s not a fan of the book. But it’s an amazing book about him from the '50s on up, he and Yves Saint Laurent. It’s an amazing book.

Did you see anything in the store that caught your eye?

Everything. It’s absurd, I wish I could afford it. Luckily I get to borrow it. I bought one of the bags over there recently, the metallic purple, the little metallic purple one. It has a really long chain so you can wear it across.

Stay tuned for more from the Chanel party and some Fab words with up-and-comer Emma Roberts!

Couples Retreat: Not Exactly a Relaxing Getaway

BuzzSugar — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 17:30:11 -0700

Everyone loves a vacation, right? Beautiful scenery, tropical drinks, fun in the sun. Add a few of your closest friends and you could have the trip of a lifetime - or a romantic getaway gone horribly awry.

To be fair, the four pairs in Couples Retreat don't realize what they're agreeing to when they head to Eden East, a swanky resort on a remote island. But once the relationship boot camp begins, the friendships quickly break down, and it's often more depressing than hilarious. To see what I mean, just read more.

The movie's couplings range in age, family size, and personality, with Vince Vaughn and Malin Akerman at the epicenter. As Dave and Ronnie, they are perhaps the most "normal" of the bunch. Between Dave's demanding job making video games (hello, Guitar Hero product placement) and raising two young sons, Dave and Ronnie don't even realize their problems until they are forced into couples skill-building. Vaughn is his typical wise-cracking character, but a touch of sweetness makes his on-screen relationship with Akerman the most enjoyable to watch. You can actually believe that they love each other and aren't using the trip as a band-aid for a bullet hole.

Jason and Cynthia (played by Jason Bateman and Kristen Bell), on the other hand, are a lot harder to relate to as two type-A personalities with an undying love for organization and PowerPoint presentations. Jason and Cynthia present the idea of the group vacation to their friends as a last-ditch effort to save their marriage (promising that the therapy sessions are optional, of course). Bell is her typical adorable self, but Bateman is insufferable. His character is painfully meticulous and overbearing, making the audience feel just as suffocated as Cynthia does.

Joey (Jon Favreau) and Lucy (Kristin Davis) represent the worst of the worst: the couple that's been together so long that they don't even notice each other anymore. The high school sweethearts take the trip not as an opportunity to re-kindle the flame, but to chase skirts (or in this case, bikini bottoms) and muscular yoga instructors. Favreau gets a few laughs with his quest to get to Eden West, the "singles" side of the island, but age-wise, Davis doesn't quite fit in with Bell and Ackerman. It's also hard to laugh at characters that embody one of the biggest fears for young couples, and their ice-cold relationship is almost too realistic to scoff at.

Then there's Shane (Faizon Love), who's newly separated from the wife he still loves, but brings along his 20-year-old girlfriend for the ride instead. As Trudy, Kali Hawk steals a lot of the laughs as she yearns to drink and party all night long while her boyfriend would rather take a nap. One joke that never gets old: Trudy's insistence on calling Shane "Daddy" throughout the entire film.

With such a strong headline cast, it's disappointing that the supporting actors steal the show. I laughed the hardest at Dave and Ronnie's adorable boys (who get very little screen time) and at the motley crew of therapists and other wacky workers at the resort dedicated to making this the trip from hell.

At the end of it all, you'll get a few laughs along with some very beautiful imagery, but you might just want to put your money toward your own vacation instead.

4 Beauty Tips From Kristin Davis

BellaSugar — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 14:00:00 -0700

Ever since we first saw Kristin Davis burst into the scene as the conniving Brooke Armstrong on the original Melrose Place, followed by her portrayal of the sophisticated, yet naive, Charlotte York on Sex and the City, I think we've all been mesmerized by her stunning, ageless looks. In fact, many of you agreed that the actress barely looks a day older than when she first became famous back in the mid-'90s. When it comes to beauty, there's no doubt Kristin, now 44, has got some fountain-of-youth secrets to spill. For the October issue of Self, for which she shares the cover with her Couples Retreat costars, Malin Ackerman and Kristen Bell, each of the women spill all their beauty secrets. Find out Kristin's at the link below.
