Here are some photos of last night’s LA premiere of Jupiter Ascending. This film was supposed to come out last summer, but the release was pushed back because “post-production” and “fears that it will be a massive bomb.” To be fair, Jupiter Ascending currently has a respectable 60% rating on Rotten Tomatoes – not the best, but far from the worst. Maybe it won’t be as disastrous as everyone thinks. Maybe the disaster will just be localized to Eddie Redmayne’s shot at the Best Actor Oscar, in which his campy Jupiter performance will end up being his Norbit. I’m including photos of Eddie, Channing Tatum, Sean Bean and Mila Kunis in this post. Ashton Kutcher was there to support Mila, but he didn’t walk the carpet with her or by himself. He just waved to a few photographers and ran into the theater.

But let’s talk fashion. Mila wore this corseted Dolce & Gabbana dress to show off how her body snapped back four months after giving birth to baby Wyatt Isabel. She’s worn versions of this dress a million times before, and this is really nothing special, in my opinion. I mean, she looks great, but this isn’t a mind-blowing fashion moment.

Meanwhile, Channing’s wife Jenna Dewan-Tatum tried to bring some drama to the proceedings with this bright orange Cushnie et Ochs Resort 2015 gown. You know what I hate more than yellow on the red carpet? ORANGE. I think Jenna is a pretty woman, but I feel like she needs some styling help.

Should we feel sorry for Eddie? It’s not his fault that this film is coming out in the middle of his awards season. Poor guy. I’ll give all of these actors credit for showing up.

This is a post for all of my “Nice try, but maybe next year” dresses at the 2014 Met Gala. It’s not that any of these gowns are either all-good or all-bad. Most of them would only need some minor tweaking or slight redesign to be workable. Emma Stone wore this two-piece Thakoon which… I don’t know. I don’t like it. I could have gotten on board with the idea of it, but the top just looks like a cotton tank (although I’m sure it’s fancier than that). I think she was aiming for minimalist and it came away looking budget. Something nice: It’s cute that Andrew walked the carpet with her, and I do like that she doesn’t have those awful bangs here.

Michelle Williams in Louis Vuitton. Ugh, really? Michelle is the current face of LV, so I’m sure she was required to wear the label. But LV makes gowns too. I just feel like a boringly sparkly cocktail dress is not getting the job done.

Riley Keough wore LV as well. She looks like her mother (Lisa Marie) and her grandmother (Priscilla) here.

Zoe Saldana wore a Michael Kors duvet.

Jessica Paré also wore a duvet by Michael Kors, but she repurposed the duvet into something altogether zzzzz………. I miss January Jones.

Many Downton Abbey watchers have grown tired of the writing and the fact that the American awards shows still think Downton is a serious British drama. It’s not! It’s just a soap opera. So, please, stop nominating Downton for everything. It’s not deserving of any awards. But one of the best by-products of Downton getting so much attention for being such “classy” programming (it’s on PBS, after all) is that Michelle Dockery is invited everywhere. I love Michelle and she almost always looks great. She has a great stylist (whom she introduced to Lupita Nyong’o so now Lupita and Michelle share a stylist). Dockery wore this Rosie Assoulin gown which I LOVE. I love that it’s not red or coral. I love the color combination of paper-white, blue and green. I love the origami-like design. I love her paleness and that she isn’t bright orange. Michelle had one of my favorite looks of the night!

And just in case you think Dockery can only do lovely gowns, here’s an Elie Saab jumpsuit look she did at a pre-Emmy event a few nights ago. I think I like this better than her Emmy look!

And here’s Joanne Froggatt, who was nominated this year because poor Anna (on Downton Abbey) was raped. Joanne did really well this season even though the writing sucked. Her J. Mendel dress is sort of pageant-y but I like seeing her in something sort of “Vegas,” you know?

It’s worth noting that in Michael Fassbender’s sparse promotion for Steve Jobs and his nonexistent advanced promotion for The Light Between Oceans, he has not said one word about Alicia Vikander. She has not appeared on or off the record in any of his profiles or interviews. Compare that with Alicia’s recent interview blitz, in which Fassbender’s name is featured with some frequency. I don’t really get it – as many have pointed out, she’s become a “name” without Fassbender, and she earned Golden Globe and SAG nominations on talent alone, you know? But in every single profile or story about Alicia, we have to be reminded: Fassy is “her boyfriend” or “her beau” or “he’s still her boyfriend, contrary to reports.” The game that Vikander played with Vogue was pretty sly, as is this little item in Page Six:

“The Danish Girl” star Alicia Vikander’s been telling pals she’s headed on a holiday vacation with boyfriend Michael Fassbender before she returns to the set of the latest “Bourne” franchise movie with Matt Damon. In a new Vogue profile, Vikander shoots down claims she and “Steve Jobs” star Fassbender fizzled — the fashion mag called the rumor “balderdash .”

Vikander was privately talking about the getaway at a “Danish Girl” reception at Kappo Masa on Madison Avenue, spies said.

[From Page Six]

So… there you go. Alicia is planning a getaway with Fassbender, who has been working on back-to-back projects for months now. Even if they are still together – big IF – I have to wonder if he’s really all that engaged in the relationship? It just seems that’s his M.O. – hook up with a costar, put in some half-hearted effort at a relationship for several months, then sort of lose interest and wait for the girlfriend to dump him.

Meanwhile, Alicia was on The Tonight Show last night. She and Will Ferrell were guests. Will’s wife is Swedish, so apparently Will is somewhat fluent in Swedish. Which meant Will and Alicia spoke Swedish together and Jimmy Fallon felt left out. This was actually cute.

Alicia Vikander ‘tells pals’ she’s going on a holiday vacay with Michael Fassbender

More than a year ago, Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter split up. They had been married for several years after meeting on Dexter, the show where Michael plays a serial killer and Jennifer plays Dexter’s cop sister. Jennifer had been with Michael through cancer, and they really did seem genuinely in love, which made their breakup pretty depressing. There were rumors that Michael had fooled around with Julia Stiles when Julia was guest-starring one season, although Julia later denied it. There were also rumors that Jennifer wanted to start a family and Michael didn’t. And that Michael was also fooling around with some 25-year-old Dexter staffer, and that Michael and Jennifer were very cold to each other while filming this past season of Dexter.

It all sounded like a bad situation, and I sort of felt bad for Jennifer. I watched this past season of Dexter, and I kept waiting for Deb to be killed off – SPOILER – and she wasn’t. The writers did do some really bizarre stuff to the Deb character, though, and there’s totally a chance Deb will die next season, I think. But that’s not the point – the point is that Michael and Jennifer might be reconciling. Maybe. According to Radar.

Are Dexter stars Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter getting a second chance at love?

That’s what a canoodling session at Beverly Hill’s Peninsula Hotel Tuesday night would suggest, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

“Michael and Jennifer were seated at a dimly lit corner table, sipping wine. It was a very romantic setting and definitely looked like a date,” an eyewitness tells RadarOnline.com.

The Emmy winner and his ex-wife, who play brother and sister on the hit Showtime drama, eloped on New Year’s Eve in 2008, but divorced two years later amid rumors that Michael cheated with Julia Stiles, who guest starred on season 6.

However, inside sources claim that Hall — now recovered from Hodgkin’s lymphoma — attacks was devastated by the split, and never fell out of love with Carpenter.

And, apparently the feeling is mutual.

“When Jennifer got up to use the ladies, Michael squeezed her hand, looked up at her and she smiled. And when she got back, they held hands on the table for a bit,” the eyewitness says. “At one point, Michael leaned across the table and he and Jennifer kissed — a make-out kind of kiss, not a friendly one. They both looked really happy.”

Maybe they were just celebrating their divorce, which was finalized last December?

[From Radar]

If they’re back together, that would make me happy. I liked them together, and if Jennifer can overlook and forgive his (allegedly) douchebaggery, then good for her. I’d like to believe that they didn’t stop loving each other. Sigh… does that make me sound like a romantic a–hole? I’m not. I just like them.

Have Jennifer Carpenter & Michael C. Hall reconciled after their divorce?

Since everything is about to get really depressing and angry, I just thought I would start off with this great link from The Onion: “New Blog Piece On Woody Allen To Settle Everything”. This, I believe, captures the essence of so many problems I’ve been having with this story. I believe Dylan Farrow. But I also think that yelling about it isn’t going to solve anything and neither is painting some people as full-on saints and villains.

In this week’s new issue of People Magazine, Dylan’s older brother Moses gave a detailed interview denying that his sister was ever molested by Woody Allen. Moses’ argument seemed weak – how is he so sure that Woody and Dylan were NEVER alone? – but Moses also claimed that Mia Farrow is manipulative and that she physically and emotionally abused her children as well. People Mag then went to Dylan for a response, and she gave a lengthy interview about Moses, Mia and the reaction to her NYT op-ed. You can read the full piece here, and here are some highlights (I took out some of the background which we all know by now):

It was a letter she wished she never had to write, about something she says she wished had never happened. Dylan Farrow says it took all the courage she had to finally pen the emotional open letter she sent to the New York Times detailing her claim that her adoptive father, Woody Allen, had sexually molested her as a child, she exclusively tells PEOPLE.

“It took all of my strength and all of my emotional fortitude to do what I did this week in the hope that it would put the truth out there,” says Dylan, 28, now a happily married writer. “That is my only ammunition. I don’t have money or publicists or limos or fancy apartments in Manhattan. All I have is the truth and that is all I put out there.”

Dylan says she knew she would be taking on one of the most powerful and esteemed forces in Hollywood. Indeed, some of Allen’s defenders claim she wrote the letter – during awards season, no less – to sabotage her father, whose film Blue Jasmine is nominated for three Oscars. Others have said she wrote it to vindicate her mother. (Mia did not see the piece before it ran, a family friend says.)

“I’ve been hearing that a lot,” says Dylan. “I’m happy to answer that. My intention in writing that piece was to put the truth on paper from a voice that was not able to speak before. People are saying that I am not actually remembering what I remember. People are saying that my ‘evil mother’ brainwashed me because they refuse to believe that my sick, evil father would ever molest me, because we live in this society where victim blaming and inexcusable behavior – this taboo against shaming the famous at the expense of their victims – is accepted and excused.”

A turning point for her came on Jan. 12, the night of the Golden Globes, when Woody Allen received the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement, which his longtime friend, Diane Keaton, accepted on his behalf.

Dylan says that she had wanted to share her side of the story for a long time. But, she tells PEOPLE, “After the Golden Globes, my brother Ronan showed immense bravery for standing up for the family and I realized it was my turn to stand up and to tell the truth.”

On Jan. 12, Ronan Tweeted, “Missed the Woody Allen tribute – did they put the part where a woman publicly confirmed he molested her at age 7 before or after Annie Hall?” Dylan says she knew the letter would draw “backlash.”

“I knew there were people saying I was a liar and that this was part of some smear campaign – some bitter vendetta of my mother’s,” she says. But, she adds, “I didn’t realize that it was going to be a betrayal of this magnitude.”

That betrayal, she says, came when her brother Moses Farrow, 36, spoke out to PEOPLE this week. Dylan spoke to PEOPLE shortly after she learned what her brother had said. Clearly anguished, she sobbed as she said, “My brother has broken my heart. Moses divorced himself from the family a long time ago. I always missed him. I loved him and I kept him in my thoughts. These lies – this betrayal – is unfathomable to me coming from a brother I loved and cherished and grew up with,” she said. “I’m sorry,” she said, apologizing for crying. “I’m shaking right now.”

She paused, regained her composure and said, “He has betrayed me in the cruelest way imaginable, and betrayed my family and my mother who has loved him since day one. His betrayal is the lowest form of evil that I could ever imagine.”

None of what Moses said is true, maintains Dylan. “It’s lies. It’s all lies.” She stands by her letter, saying, “My memories are true. What happened to me as a little girl … is my cross to bear. But I will not see my family dragged down like this. I can’t stay silent when my family needs me.”

She says there was a time when she adored her father. “Part of the reason why it was so hard for me to write the piece that I wrote was because once upon a time I loved my father so much.” Dylan says that when her mother heard the contents of Moses’s letter, “She was stunned. She couldn’t believe that he betrayed her and me and the family like this. Her reaction is on par with mine.”

Amid the sadness she feels over her shattered family and childhood memories that continue to haunt her are moments of happiness and normalcy. While she spoke to PEOPLE, her husband stood in the background, comforting her. She says she and her husband met through an ad on The Onion. “And we have been in love ever since. Yesterday was the anniversary of our first date. It’s been seven years.”

“He is the most wonderful man in the world. When they say living well is the best revenge – I have that. My conscience is clean. I have told the truth. I cannot say the same for Moses.” She also has her family, who she says has always been there for her. “I love my family so much. We are a strong family. We are a loving family. We are a brave family. We are fighters. I love my mother so much.”

She hopes her open letter will help sexual abuse victims come forward and seek help.

“I am hoping to help at least one person out there. And that’s why I spoke out.”

[From People]

The Onion has personal ads?! WHAT?! Sorry, I was just trying to lighten the mood again. Anyway… I feel for Dylan. I think she is still dealing with what she went through as a child. Reportedly, Woody Allen is speaking to editors at the New York Times about publishing his own op-ed, but as yet, that has not happened. 60 Minutes has also re-posted their old 1992 interview with Woody, which you can see here.

Dylan Farrow’s People interview: ‘All I have is the truth & that is all I put out there’

CBS has cancelled long-running sitcom Mike and Molly after a 6 season run. In March, the network announced it was ordering 22 episodes for the show’s sixth season, but it was revealed this week that this season will be the show’s last and only 13 episodes will air. The series, which co-starred comedian Billy Gardell revolved around the titular couple, a cop and a teacher who met at an Overeaters Anonymous meeting and fell in love. I can’t believe they got 6 seasons out of this premise, but Billy and Melissa are quite charming, so I can possibly see it.

Melissa, who was recently nominated for a Golden Globe for Spy, tweeted on Monday, “I was shocked and heartbroken when @CBS canceled #MikeAndMolly. I would have shot this show for 50 more years. I’ll miss my 2nd family.” It’s not like the 45-year-old actress doesn’t have anything else on the horizon. She’s got 2 movies, The Boss and Ghostbusters, coming soon and she recently debuted her new Seven7 fashion line – and showed off her slimmed-down figure. On top of that, Forbes magazine declared her the third-highest paid actress in the world this year, surpassed only by Jennifer Lawrence and Scarlett Johansson. Not too shabby.

Melissa’s tweet implies that the show wasn’t cancelled because of her busy film career. The show pulled in decent ratings, bringing an average of 8.4 million viewers during its fifth season. It was no Big Bang Theory, which averaged over 16 million viewers, but it performed better than Two Broke Girls, which brings in an average of 7.8 million viewers. Melissa’s co-star, Rondi Reed, who plays Mike’s mother on the show, was also dismayed by the cancellation and wrote on her Facebook page, “We are done taping as of Jan. 27th, 2016, and I am not sure exactly when/if the episodes will all be aired. The network has its reasons, and I will not get into a debate, discussion, or campaign to get them to change their minds.”

Honestly, I didn’t even know Mike and Molly was still on. I love Melissa, but I’m really hoping she can get better scripts. I’m cautiously optimistic about Ghostbusters, but I’m definitely on the fence about The Boss. I think she’s an amazing comedienne who needs a role worthy of her talents. I mean, her physical comedy skills are on point. Her opening monologue from her 2013 hosting gig on SNL still cracks me up (especially as someone who can’t leave the house without strapping on a pair of heels). I’m sure she’ll be just fine without her sitcom.

It must suck to be a celebrity some days. Usually the trade off seems worth it though. I mean Melanie Griffith is about to get $65k a month in spousal support from her ex, Antonio Banderas. That’s more than most of us make in an entire year. Plus she has that estate in Aspen, as poorly decorated as it is. She’s not hurting for much material-wise, but apparently it bothers her when people talk smack about her on social media, as it would most people. She posted the photo above, where she’s presumably in character or else why would she be sporting tight curls and blue eyeshadow, and basically told the mean people to bring it on.

Melanie wrote: “Here ya go. Unfiltered. I’m 58. And I’m in Hawaii Five O playing Scott Caan’s Mom. Go ahead… Say some more mean things. Merry Christmas.”

Melanie is one of those celebrities whom the Daily Mail had on “older lady knee watch” so I get why she’s defensive like this. She had a lot of work done on her face and I wish she would have been subtler with it or more judicious or whatever but I get it. It sucks getting older and it’s a societal thing as I always say. When your friends are doing it, you do it too. LA is this weird plastic surgery fishbowl where the distorted faces become normalized.

So I think some people are pointing out that Melanie isn’t looking like herself more than she’s looking older, but when you’re talking about social media trolls it could just be stupidity and meanness. That seems to be the predominant trolling behavior and it needs to be stopped.

Melanie is using Instagram to show the world she’s doing just fine. She recently posted an inspirational quote about divorce, a throwback photo with her glamorous mom, Tippi Hedren (she’s still rocking at 85), and a holiday photo out with her friends, including Bette Midler and Angelika Houston. I’m so jealous! Plus she’s in Hawaii “working.”

Amen! Love my kids, love my ex's. Always and forever. #nobody's business

Every time I see Katie Holmes on the red carpet lately, I’m struck by how vibrant she looks. Remember how she looked in 2012 as her marriage to Tom Cruise crumbled? She looked desperately unhappy, and now she’s living life on her own terms. She may give the most disappointing interviews ever (talking about pancakes to People magazine), but Katie is happy.

This week’s issue of The Enquirer has a bit of entertaining fanfiction. The tabloid says Mel Gibson wants Katie to make him a very happy man. They say Mel wants to get back into the dating scene after licking his wounds over Oksana Grigorieva. Aaand he wants Katie to be his lady. The tab has placed itself inside Mel’s mind. Katie would seem ideal, right? She’s cute and has her own money. She’s famous enough to be a catch, but her level of fame wouldn’t overpower his. Most importantly, she’s seen some sh-t and knows how to keep her mouth shut. So yeah, she could be exactly what Mel is looking for in a woman:

Mad Mel Gibson has a crush on Hollywood darling Katie Holmes — even though she’s more than two decades his junior.

“Mel drools over Katie!” an insider told The Enquirer. “She’s everything he wants in a woman — sexy, intelligent, independent — real wife material.”

The actor, 58, has been single since his sensational split form Oksana Grigorieva four years ago.

Now he’s ready to dive back into dating.

“Mel’s trying to arrange a date with Katie through mutual acquaintances. He’s convinced she’ll fall for his charms if she’ll sit down for dinner with him,” said the pal. Gibson is far from fazed by 36-year-old Katie’s history with ex Tom Cruise, sources added.

“Mel’s taken a real beating over the past few years, which is why he’s kept such a low profile,” an insider said. “But despite everything he’s been through, he’s incredibly self-confident and believes he’s as big a catch as ever.”

[From Enquirer, print edition, December 22, 2014]

I’m cringing so hard right now. The Enquirer laid it on thick with this story. It’s difficult to remember a time when Mel was ever considered “a catch,” but that really happened. He was People’s Sexiest Man Alive (when that sort of meant something), and all those Lethal Weapon movies had people falling at his feet. I mean, he was considered desirable enough to be a romcom leading man.

This story probably isn’t true — it’s a very slow week for the tabloids. Katie would laugh at the idea of going on a date with Mel. Whomever she gets with in the future will be drama free. Girlfriend’s had enough baggage for several lifetimes. She’ll probably end up with a quiet businessman, not an egomaniacal, violent pig like Mel Gibson. Nice matchmaking, Enquirer.

Meg Ryan has a new interview in Porter Magazine, and it’s a puzzler. Meg comes right out and says that she doesn’t want to have a conversation about aging and what it’s like to be 54 years old in an industry that worships 22-year-olds. CB and I were debating if Meg’s comments were pointed, perhaps at Christie Brinkley, who went on a few very public dates with John Mellencamp, Meg’s one-time crusty lover. Brinkley has been on a promotional tour where all she talks about is aging and being beautiful and all of that. So… maybe Meg is taking a very subtle swipe. Or maybe Meg is trying to shut down the conversation about aging because she’s been f—king with her face for years and she looks like a totally different person (not unlike Christie Brinkley, come to think of it). Here are some highlights from Meg’s interview:

On conversations about aging: “There are more important conversations than how women look and how they are aging. I love my age. I love my life right now. I love what I know about. I love the person I’ve become, the one I’ve evolved into. In my life I’ve been scrappy as hell, but I feel easy with things now. I think that comes with age. We get stuck in these conversations about looks and hair color and our roots. It’s interesting and funny for five minutes, but it’s not that interesting.”

So many haters: “There’s a lot of hatred in the world today—it’s so easy to judge. Imagine being a hater. How stupid! My women friends are not sitting around talking about…well, sometimes there are conversations like that, but the people I value talk about kids growing up, what kind of world they are going into, what we are eating, what we are breathing.”

On fame: “[It’s] definitely something I have had an evolving relationship to. I’m the kind of person who doesn’t want to be separated out…Fame is so cheap. Actually it’s not cheap, it’s privacy that is expensive.”

On social media: “Instagram and all that stuff is a lot of fun, but everybody has an audience now and that’s new. I think people can now relate to the idea of strangers knowing about them: sometimes that’s fine and sometimes you are misunderstood. Sometimes there’s misinformation.”

She’s still friends with her ex, John Mellencamp: “He’s the perfect kind of songwriter for this story. He’s world class. There’s not one speck of music that’s not his. He’s got some kind of magic touch.”

She’s happy: “I’m with my life right now in a way that I adore, with my kids and my world.”

[From E! News]

Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for women telling other women that superficial conversations about hair and beauty are not the most important conversations we should be having. That being said, I gossip for a living, so I think Meg is being too cute by half. We know she tweaks the hell out of her face. We KNOW it. She knows we know it. We know she felt the same pangs of superficiality and vanity that millions of other women feel. So why not talk about it?

Here are some photos of Matthew McConaughey and Naomi Watts at the Cannes photocall and premiere of their new Gus Van Sant film, Sea of Trees. Terrible title, right? Especially given that the film sounds like an utterly maudlin, depressive exercise. The film is about a man (McConaughey) who wants to commit suicide, so he travels to Japan’s “Suicide Forest” and ends up meeting some other people wanting to commit suicide and he ends up going on a journey to learn that he doesn’t really want to die. Sounds pretty terrible, right? Like, why would you even want to make that film? And why wouldn’t you call the film The Suicide Forest? That seems like an obvious one, right?

Anyway, the film is apparently as bad as it sounds. Sea of Trees was the first film at this year’s Cannes Film Festival to be booed following the first screening. EW compiled some of the worst of critics’ tweets here – The Guardian called the film a “fantastically annoying and dishonest tear-jerker.” Vanity Fair’s Richard Lawson skewered it. I’ve yet to see a positive review. Apparently, people were actually HISSING. So what was The McConaughey’s reaction? He told the assembled journalists at the press conference, “Anyone has as much right to boo as they do to ovate.” Alright alright alright.

As for fashion… Naomi’s photocall dress was Peter Pilotto. Her premiere look (the one-shouldr gown in pale silver-blue) was Armani Privé Spring 2015. Matthew’s wife Camila Alves also walked the premiere red carpet, but not with her husband. Camila’s gown is Gabriela Cadena. I think I like Naomi’s Armani most of all, although I wish it was just a touch longer.

Yesterday, CB covered the first excerpts from Sarah Jessica Parker’s Marie Claire cover piece for September. In a funny twist, especially considering CB is the one who usually gives SJP the benefit of the doubt much more than me, CB seemed as annoyed with SJP as I usually am. The thing about Sarah Jessica is that you want to like her, and you might actually have some residual warmth for her after all of those years of watching Carrie Bradshaw, and then she opens her mouth and ruins it. SJP’s interviews are the worst. She just tries too hard to project an image of a working mother who is all at once the best, most precious mother in the world as well as the one of the world’s busiest actresses and multi-taskers. It’s all a bit much. Anyway, in the Marie Claire interview, SJP gets all Goopy about her marriage:

With a hectic work schedule, three young children and a fourteen year marriage to nurture, Sarah Jessica Parker has a lot on her plate. The 46-year-old Sex And The City star has revealed that she has a fairly unusual way of dealing with all the pressures that life throws at her and her husband, actor Matthew Broderick. They chose not to discuss their marriage.

‘We don’t talk about our marriage a lot, which is probably wise,’ she admitted to Marie Claire magazine in their September issue. ‘There are so many other things in our lives that take precedence over the splitting of the atom of our marriage.’

Sarah and Ferris Bueller star Matthew, 49, married in May 1997 and have three children together – James Wilke, 8, and two-year-old twins Tabitha and Marion.

The I Don’t Know How She Does It star also discussed how she balances life with her family and work.

‘I love, love, love being an actor,’ she says.

‘It’s still the hardest and scariest thing I do, outside of parenting. But I’ve always been someone who likes a busy day. I love the opportunities, and if I can manage my time and the children are okay and we’re okay, it’s hard to say no…’

[From The Mail]

“Splitting of the atom of our marriage”??? Girl. I feel like this is SJP’s way of saying that Matthew is never around and when he is, he doesn’t even want to speak to her. I bet he doesn’t want to split the atom of child-rearing. I bet he doesn’t want to split the atom of fidelity. I bet he doesn’t want to split the atom of two careers. And I bet SJP doesn’t want to split the atom of divorce. What is with these women who stay in these horrible marriages?

Sarah Jessica Parker: Matthew & I don’t “split the atom of our marriage”

Just before New Year’s Eve, we heard about Giada de Laurentiis’ separation from her husband. Giada announced her split from husband Todd on her Facebook page, and Todd filed the divorce papers shortly after her announcement. The whole thing was done with very little drama, except that everyone pretty much assumes that Giada was totally fooling around and that multiple blind items were “true.” Some years-old rumors about John Mayer cropped up again, and multiple outlets also claimed that Giada was out and about in Miami with Bobby Flay the night before the separation announcement. So, put those two guys together and add a dash of Matt Lauer, and we get this Star story:

The New Year certainly isn’t off to a good start for Giada De Laurentiis. On Dec. 29, the Food Network star shockingly announced her separation from husband of 11 years, Todd Thompson, and Star has learned exclusively that a possible cheating bombshell could rock their divorce proceedings!

“Giada wanted to announce the divorce after the holidays,” a source claims. “But three different men — one from L.A. and one from Las Vegas — are looking for a payday or they’ll go public!”

This wouldn’t be the first time Giada has been linked romantically to someone other than her husband, either. In a shocking 2010 Star world exclusive, multiple sources claimed she and rocker John Mayer shared a steamy tryst at an NYC hotel. Plus, the famous chef has also made headlines for her close relationship with Today show host Matt Lauer.

Most notable, though, is Giada’s closer-than-close relationship with Bobby Flay, one of Food Network’s original superstars who had a hand in discovering her in 2002. “There were always whispers about the closeness between those two,” a Food Network source tells Star. “Their chemistry has been no secret at all to people around them.” In fact, just two days before Giada announced her divorce, the duo was spotted having a casual dinner together in Miami.

The stories about Giada’s close relationships with other men were devastating to Todd…and could make their divorce a real battle. “It could potentially turn really ugly where Giada’s money and their daughter are concerned,” a source adds. “I wouldn’t blame Todd if he felt angry and humiliated.”

Re: Bobby Flay – I wouldn’t doubt it on his end, I’ve heard the stories about his wandering eye. But would Giada go there? If she would go there with John Mayer, she might go there with Flay. As for Matt Lauer… is it weird to say that the Lauer rumor blew my mind? We all know Lauer is a womanizing dog (allegedly!!), but Matt with Giada? Now THAT makes sense.

But before we finish up here, you should know that Giada went to Gossip Cop to personally deny all of these rumors. From Gossip Cop:

Regarding the John Mayer rumor, De Laurentiis tells Gossip Cop, “I have never ever been romantically involved with John Mayer. I met him twice at least 5 or 6 years ago at public events along with hundreds of other people. The small amount of face time with John was in rooms filled with other attendees at these events. I have not seen or even heard from him since. The allegation of an affair was a fabrication back in 2010 and remains so today.”

As for the Lauer and Flay rumors, De Laurentiis tells Gossip Cop, “My long-time friendships with my co-workers Matt Lauer and Bobby Flay are exactly that — long-time friendships. There has never been a romantic relationship with these two men.”

That alleged outburst De Laurentiis had on December 10? Star made it up. She informs Gossip Cop, “I was not at the Standard Hotel on December 10th. I was on an early morning flight back to Los Angeles, and I have not stayed at the Standard Hotel for at least the last few years.” And regarding the Star allegation that “three different men” are “looking for a payday or they will go public” about non-existent affairs with De Laurentiis, she tells Gossip Cop, “This is a complete fabrication. There are no men out there making any such claims, and I have never been contacted by anyone.” There is literally ZERO evidence for ANYTHING Star says about De Laurentiis.

[From Gossip Cop]

Do you believe her? Was she faithful to Todd throughout their marriage? Did she ever spend too much time in Matt Lauer’s dressing room? Did she and Bobby Flay ever linger in the walk-in freezer? Did she ever have dirty hotel sex with John Mayer? I have no idea. I really and truly don’t know and I don’t even have a good theory for all of this.

Here are some photos of Channing Tatum and Matt Bomer on a float during the LA Gay Pride Parade last weekend. On one side, I absolutely love that Channing is still and has always been such a strong LGBTQ ally. On the other side, he looks like a drunk frat bro that accidentally wandered into the Pride Parade and just decided to dance for fun. All that being said… SO cute. Very cute. Anyway, Channing is going Full Charming Potato these days to hustle for Magic Mike XXL. And yesterday, he sat down for a Reddit AMA – you can read the full piece here. The highlights are pretty amazing.

His penis’s nickname: “Gilbert.”

How long it took for him to type “hahahaha” in an email revealed in the Sony Hack: “I’m sure exactly how long. I hit the h and a for a long time before I realized I could copy and paste. I’m not the most tech savvy person around but it did become a lot easier and faster.”

His three desert island items: “How about a magical seashell that’s always filled with bourbon. And I would like magical palm tree that had a lot of shade with instead of coconuts there’s just peanut butter jelly sandwiches with cheetos underneath. And my wife that is always happy and possibly naked.”

Whether he gets lost in Matt Bomer’s eyes: “Absof———klutely. no matter if you’re a man, woman, cat, hamster, you will get lost in matt bomer’s eyes. I don’t know what they are made of outside of dreams and rainbows and amazingness but it truly doesn’t matter. And when he sings. It’s like god gave with both hands and then grew a third hand and graced him with more. he’s crazy talented.”

His favorite Disney character: “I like the broom from Fantasia.”

His relationship with Jonah Hill: “Jonah is one of those people who if you just sit back and just watch him you in no way shape or form can understand how he’s doing what he’s doing. He’s the fastest most quickest wittiest person I’ve ever met. And I think people when they think of comedic actors they forget that they are people with a point of view and experiences and depth. And Jonah is one of the most sensitive and deep people i know. And that’s why I think he can be a comedic actor and a deep actor as well.

Whether he was the guy in “the Sea-Tac airport at the Chili’s restaurant looking for a beer but Idless”: “That absolute was me. Because I love Chili’s. And no one believed me that i got into an airport without my id. I just wanted a beer and some chicken crisps, and i actually couldn’t get either of them for a while, because i remember you guys didn’t have chicken crisps either! what’s a Chili’s without chicken crisps?

His favorite ice cream: “it’s kind of boring. Cookie Dough. But then you can put cookie dough on just about anything and I would eat it.”

[From Reddit]

I’m always reminded, whenever Channing talks about food, that he has the soul of a “fat kid”. He said that in an interview once, that if he didn’t have to keep it tight for work, he would just lay around and eat cake, ice cream and fried everything all the time. I believe that Channing has a cookie dough problem and that he goes into random chain restaurants looking for chicken crisps and chili fries.

And yes, even straight dudes crush on Matt Bomer.

As we already know, Jennifer Lopez is ALL ABOUT Prince William and Duchess Kate. She got the most face-camera time with Kate and Will when they were in LA, at the BAFTA event. Jennifer brought her mom, and J.Lo and Guadalupe definitely seemed to come to the event with a goal. After the event, Jennifer even tweeted that the Cambridges were “simply charming” – as if she were the Queen of Hollywood and she deigned to meet the prince and his duchess wife. I think the overwhelming majority of us were just kind of horrified with her dress, though. She chose a really inappropriate dress to meet Will and Kate.

Anyway, Mary-Louise Parker is not worried about alienating the self-appointed queen of Hollywood. MLP was asked by People Magazine how she enjoyed the BAFTA event, and whether she got to meet Will and Kate. MLP replied, “I didn’t meet them. I was shoved out of the way by Jennifer Lopez. Uh oh, I shouldn’t have said that.” OH NOES. Jennifer is going to cut a bitch over this! MLP better watch her ass, because I think Jennifer is standing nude in someone’s basement, having chicken blood smeared on her so that a Santeria spell can be put on MLP. It’s going to be terrible!

Here’s a question: would you shove someone out of the way to meet Kate? I don’t think I would. I would like to see her in person, sure. But I’m not one of those people who needs to shake someone’s hand and have my photo taken with them, unless that person is someone like Michael Fassbender. I would shove my mother down a flight of a stairs to get to the Fassdong.

Mark Wahlberg, a born-and-bred Bostonian, loves everything about the New England Patriots, especially QB Tom Brady. Brady and Wahlberg have been buds for years, and Mark even asked Brady to do a cameo in Ted 2. I won’t get into specifics, but the scene involves Mark’s character and Ted (the anthropomorphized teddy bear) breaking into Tom Brady’s home while he’s asleep – you can see the SuperBowl commercial for the film here.

Anyway, they’re buds. So it’s no surprise that Mark is defending his bud. Mark has been doing some promotional work for Entourage: The Movie (Mark executive produced the HBO series and now the film), and Us Weekly chatted with him about all things Brady, Deflategate and more.

Mark’s reaction to Deflategate: “I don’t know. Listen, obviously I’m a die-hard Patriots fan, I just feel like they’re just trying to keep us down. They’re trying to keep us down. They don’t like winners. Tom is the best ever. Arguably the best ever. He’s probably going to get two more victories when it’s all done. Then he’s going to come help run the team.”

Mark texted Brady when the scandal broke: “I sent him a message — saying from a guy who’s been there, [not to] worry about it. Keep your head up. It will all blow over.’ He just sent me a very funny response. So I knew he was handling it well. They’re comparing him to Alex Rodriguez, I mean, what are you talking about? I’ll always be there to support him. He’s a good friend and the greatest thing to happen to the Patriots.”

[From Us Weekly]

I kind of love all the whining from Bostonians, like the world is against them and their team. I mean, if you love the Patriots, more power to you and God bless. Go ahead and love the Patriots and support them. But don’t act like the world is conspiring against your team when really the NFL is just trying to enforce some rather mundane rules about ball inflation and punish some people who actively obstructed their investigation.

This also bothers me: “…saying from a guy who’s been there, [not to] worry about it.” Tom Brady’s deflated balls = Mark Wahlberg violently assaulting two Vietnamese men in a racially charged hate crime?
