One year ago today...
It was the second Thursday of Cannes. Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson were at a party. The paps shot them from across the street -- rare photos of the two of them kissing and loving. With video! It was very romance, per Borat Sagdiyev. Three weeks ago, when I was planning our Cannes coverage, I had this day marked as an anniversary celebration for Twi-Hards. Full Story

What Ian calls his ex?
Ian Somerhalder was in London last night. He was photographed outside the Groucho Club with an unidentified woman on his arm and a takeout bag in one hand. At least I think it’s a takeout bag. And I am more curious about the contents of the takeout bag than I am about who she is. Or, specifically, about the takeout/doggy bag etiquette. Full Story
Rumer Willis joins Pretty Little Liars
This whole acting thing is really turning out to be a grind for Rumer Willis, huh? Bit parts on CW shows, poorly received horror movies, she always seems to be working but after years in the business she really hasn’t landed anything to write home to Demi about…until now. It’s all finally paying off, in my eyes anyway, because Rumer’s got a part on TVs most important soap, Pretty Little Liars. Full Story
Nicole Kidman’s Hathaway Oscar dress

I’ll add more photos as they become available but wanted to get this article off asap. Here’s Nicole Kidman, with Ang Lee, at the Palais in Cannes tonight. That dress looked familiar to me. I thought it might be Valentino Haute Couture. It sure looks like it. And it sure looks like the one Anne Hathaway was supposed to wear to the Oscars before her last-minute change into the pink Prada to avoid clashing with Amanda Seyfried, you remember?

Andrew & Tom: Hipster Porn
MaxNY /Spartano /FAMEFLYNET
I hesitate to use the word hipster because we’re over talking about hipsters, right? The hipster movement feels passé at this point, yes? But still, I don’t know what to call these pictures of Andrew Garfield and Tom Sturridge other than hipster porn. They were snapped yesterday walking around Tribeca and I’m sorry for being vulgar but how badly do you want to be handcuffed in the middle of these two? Actually handcuffed is probably the wrong idea, these two are love makers not f*ckers. Full Story
Jennifer Aniston: the female Channing Tatum
When they presented together at the Oscars, Jennifer Aniston and Channing Tatum, I tweeted that that was an instant rom-com. Call her Kate, call him Jack, you don’t even need a screenplay. And they have something else in common now too. What’s the signature mark of a Channing Tatum movie? Forget Matthew McConaughey, Channing Tatum always takes his shirt off. Full Story
George in London, Stacy in Cannes
TFLASH /LUIGI /WENN
George Clooney was photographed in London last night after dinner with friends. UK gossips have suggested that he seemed unsteady on his feet. I believe it. I’ve seen it. It’s a good time when George goes out. For the last few months, George has been directing The Monuments Men. Full Story
The New York Times tries to give January Jones a personality
January Jones. I don’t get it. Like, AT ALL. Granted I don’t watch Mad Men, but even if she is brilliant on the show (is she?), she is the celebrity equivalent of lukewarm….anything. Jones is just so boring and bland, even when an interviewer is trying to impose a personality on her, like in this NYT profile Full Story
Dear Gossips,
I can’t believe Michael Douglas won’t be receiving an Oscar nomination for his work in Behind The Candelabra. Because he is BRILLIANT in Behind The Candelabra. An actor still at the very, very, very top of his game. And Matt Damon too. And Steven Soderbergh.
Behind The Candelabra is so f-cking good, I watched it twice last night, back to back. You know what the word is? It’s a word I never, ever, ever use because it’s so, so, SO overused:
Fabulous.
But how else to say it? Fabulous, and sad, and hysterical. The kind of movie you keep playing, if only to learn the lines. What makes it even more fabulous is that fabulous was not their goal. They played it straight, no pun intended. In playing it straight, the authenticity gave way to the fabulous, organically. Read Full Intro
Shirtless Harry totally did it with Kimberly Stewart
FameFlynet, Bauer, Splash
While Twi-Hards are melting down over #RobstenIsBrokenForNowButNotForever, One Directioners are losing their sh-t over these shirtless shots of Harry Styles holding a baby in Barcelona. 1D is currently on tour and were enjoying some down time at their hotel. Seriously, if I were 20 years younger, that would totally work for me. Full Story
Gatsby without Leo

Baz Luhrmann and his Gatsby cast were in Sydney tonight at the gala premiere. Tobey Maguire was there, and Joel Edgerton, and of course Carey Mulligan dutifully promoted their film. Leo, as you know, stayed back in Cannes. As previously mentioned, Leo bailed because of a “scheduling change”. Full Story
Katy Cambridge blooms in yellow

Mrs Cambridge attended the Queen’s garden party today at Buckingham Palace with her in-laws. She looked great in yellow over the growing heir. Not much longer now. As you can see, Kate seems to get on great with Camilla. And William? Garden parties aren’t for the Wales boys, I guess. Full Story
Jen & her Friends
Jennifer Aniston is co-hosting the Ellen DeGeneres Show today. This was surprising to me. Because it’s not like she has a movie to promote. And she’s big enough of a star that she can afford to be more sparing with her time anyway even when she does have something to promote...although when you get into the “lifestyle” game, all those rules must change.
