Reese Witherspoon was photographed after a blowout yesterday smartly dressed almost as though she was headed out immediately after. For a date? Word is she’s been casually seeing Jim Toth, an agent with CAA. CAA reps her, so it’s very possible it’s a business friendship, but a story so boring clearly doesn’t make for very titillating narrative. Besides, People Magazine seems to be suggesting that Reese and Toth are in the early stages of togetherness too which means that the report, true or false, is most likely sanctioned by her team. It serves her well to be dating just as Ryan Phillippe is single again and douching himself all over LA.

Reese is very thin right now. Always is when she’s between lovers. And it’s Oscar week. Everyone is thin during Oscar week. Because it’s not just the event, it’s the event surrounding the events. Like the Spirit Awards, and the Soho House/Grey Goose party, the Vanity Fair party, the Elton John party, and the Night Before Oscar party, and impromptu drinks at the Sunset Tower, everyone is in town, and everyone will be seen, and you never want to be seen unless your ass has been flushed out, your skin is freshly facialed, and the sweet potato diet has sucked every ounce of water out of your body.
