Maple Leaf Keanu in Hong Kong Where his abilities are much more appreciated than they are in English speaking parts of the world. Here’s Keanu being honoured at the FilmAID Power Of Film Gala in Hong Kong last night. In Hong Kong it doesn’t matter that he can’t sneeze convincingly.

Maple Leaf Improvement Taylor Kitsch looked really, really handsome at the UK premiere of John Carter last night in London, didn’t he? I like how rosy his cheeks are.

Famewhores Blake and Ryan across the country Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds spent Oscar weekend in Nashville. They stayed at the GOOP recommended Hermitage Hotel. Am told by readers who saw them there that they were casual and “impossibly gorgeous” together. Also rather low key. No pap photos have emerged of the two (so far). And no By Lainey • Feb 29, 2012 01:11 pm

Maple Leaf When these babies have babies There is a world in which Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are considered adults - parental figures, even if for just one day, to those for whom these two could, mathematically and biologically, be mommy and daddy. Here they are spending the weekend in Malibu with Bieber’s siblings, Jaxon By Lainey • Feb 20, 2012 12:56 pm
