These are some photos from last night’s LACMA 2012 Art + Film Gala Honoring Ed Ruscha and Stanley Kubrick presented by Gucci. There were some big names and a ton of B-listers at the event, so I’m just going to cover the most notable people today, and tomorrow we’ll probably have more fashion coverage. Incidentally, Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux were at the event and they posed for photos inside the event, but neither walked the red carpet. Aniston wore a cleavage-y black dress and she looked pretty good – you can see those photos here.
I suppose the most notable person at the event was Robert Pattinson. Ever since The Twihard Meltdown of 2012, it really feels like Robert is trying to do more “establishment Hollywood” stuff, and he’s doing it solo. Like, when he gets invited to a big industry event or a decent charity event these days, he makes it a point to show up, whereas in the past he might have ignored it. I kind of like seeing him go solo at these kinds of events – it shows that he’s interested in maintaining (and growing) his profile in Hollywood. He looks nice in tux… but his hair is a mess.
Speaking of hot messes, OMG Cameron Diaz. OMG. Just… dear God. She’s wearing Gucci, as most of the women were (for an event sponsored by Gucci). The color is horrendous on her, and the design is just… unflattering. You know what? Cameron Diaz has an amazing figure – she’s leggy and trim and athletic, and this dress makes her look saggy-boob’d, thick-waisted, no-hipped and stick-legged. This dress should be burned.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is wearing Gucci too. This dress is decent from the front, mainly because this is such a surprisingly beautiful color on Rosie. I kind of think the back and the side of the dress is a mess. Too much side-boob, too many back ruffles.
Salma Hayek in Gucci… it’s kind of boring choice for her. But she’s been having an awful style run lately, so she gets points for finding something flattering for her figure, and something that doesn’t look “too young”. I really dislike her hair, though.

Cameron’s dress is more costume than elegant outfit. But hey it’s Halloween. WTF is going wrong with Rosie’s neck. She has manly, wrestler neck.
Haha, right. A “manly, wrestler neck”. Sure. Great comment. By the way, what does your neck look like?
Her neck does look thick in this picture. I don’t know if its the dress or angle of the pic but yep her neck looks “manly” and thick.
It’s because Rosie is turning her head a bit to the side and has her chin lowered, that makes the tendons in anyone’s neck stick out. It’s just the pose and the angle.
Sparkles is trying to attend them big things now in a bid to slowly detach himself from the Twilight saga and K-Screwed.
Cameron Diaz… I almost threw my laptop across the room but the shoes got my attention.
Does Salma wear anything else other than black black and more black?
Rosie looks like a giraffe. Absolutely un-fabulous and the boob sight is the micro cherry on the top!
Look at Salma’s dress again, it’s actually a really dark shade of blue. I too was like, ugh more black, but when I looked closer I was pleasantly surprised. That color blue looks really compliments her complexion, too.
I like Rosie dress from he front the back of the dress is a mess.
i love RHW’s dress color!
and she looks a bit like Pene Cruz in that front-facing picture
the sideboob and sideleg though, too much!
but i guess in a museum where there are statues and paintings with no clothes on, this is already too much fabric.
(i’ve never been to lacma, so i don’t know what’s really in there, but i’d like to think that museums have at least one sans-clothes statue or painting)
Cammy looks like a granny.
+1
She pissed off her stylist, poor thing.
Her head looks like a Jack O Lantern. Scary!
She looks like Big Bird….
And the winner for the best dressed was Salma Hayek! I like the bird nest hairdo on her.
Tom Ford come back…Gucci needs you! How can such ugly dresses (Cam’s & Rosie’s) be designed by a woman? Didn’t anyone fit them before both were given the go-ahead. Salma looks gorgeous.
Go Sparkles! I hope he has a good career, post-Twilight.
What? No kshrew? Guess sparkles was given a night off from fetching towels and coffee mugs and playing doormat.
😆
Ugh, why do I still find him so ridiculously attractive, even without his balls? Damn you and your Gucci-wearing perfection Sparkles! I like the tousled hair. I think perfectly coiffed hair on a man can be a bit naff.
He looks like he was hit with a plank of wood. Take a look at other men and see how femme Sparkles looks.
Oh, the “hit with a plank of wood” offense. How original. He’s gorgeous, and you need to have your eyes tested.
Besides, I’m not into cliched “hunks” anyway.
@Adeli: Gorgeous indeed.
With this amazing jaw line?You need the glasses.lol
He looks great in that suit, and his hair is fiiiine.
I still love him loads. I was angry with him for a week but I am slowly coming back to where I was before. Hate that he chose to give the skank another chance but that shouldn’t define him, you know. She is irrelevant imo and I am far more interested in his projects and how he fares in them.
Lets see what happens to his relationship next year. I am hoping but not holding my breath that he will dump her but I realize that there is more to him than his abysmal taste in girls.
I like Kaiser’s take on this. Rob showing up for events like this solo, networking with others in HW, slowly extricating himself from all things Twilight 😀
Robert Pattinson……..”Bond James Bond!!”
Cammie’s hair is a mess. Mine looks better when I wake up. The dress, bad color on her.
Oooh Cami. There is just so, so much wrong with everything. The cut, the color, the fabric, her makeup, her hair, the lack of boob support, the shoes, the necklace…..I can only assume she smelled bad as well.
WOW! I didn’t realize Cameron’s stylists were going for the Meemaw look. I swear my Nana had a dress like this from a bridal party in 1967 (ok, little longer but pretty much the same).
Agree. All I could think when I saw the picture of her was “Lawrence Welk Show”.
Wtf Rosie Huntington Whateverly? You look ridiculous & that dress is a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen
Sparkles needs to holla at Rosie, so it frees Jason Statham up to make sweet love to ME!
Oh, Cameron! For once, I am lost for words!
Hitting 40 in Hollyweirdland and her face showing a lot of wear and tear, the d….k she said she flies anywhere for is going to be greatly reduced in quality.
Salma’s dress is gorgeous on her. She doesn’t look too try-hardy. Elegant look. Striking woman. She’s in her forties, but what a difference compared to Cammie’s face.
I know, she looks like a 20 year old!
For Cameron she actually looks really good. I had the baby food green color of the dress but, overall, she looks good.
IA with everyone else about Rosie’s dress. Wonderful color and fit from the front. From the back it looks like a hot mess that the designer just gave up on.
I kind of like Diaz’s dress but not on her. Someone could have worked that. But who?
That was my thought too, that dress could work well on some women but not on her. Maybe on Cate Blanchett or on Rooney Mara. But Cate could wear a dress made of toilet paper, she would still look gorgeous.
Rob looks good in that suit. I find him more interesting looking than good looking. I think people are judging too much the story with the Twilight girl. Nobody really knows what’s going on. He seems a nice young man. I wish him a good and serious career after “crappy Twilight”.
Pattinson seems totally disinterested in being there. He also looks like a sharply dressed werewolf.
Cam’s dress is he WORST… the color, the neckline, the sleeves. She looks like she isn’t wearing a bra, which she needs STAT. The Rose girl has a very thick weird neck in that photo. Her dress looks unfinished from the side color is good on her and the slit with her legs is fine. Selma looks good here am even o.k. with her hair.
…the most notable person at the event was Robert Pattinson? The event was filled with A-list stars. RP was definitely not the most notable!
I like Cameron’s dress – it’s better than boring basic black. Same goes for Rosie.
Jennifer looks like she is trying too hard.
+1 re: A-list indeed, including just about every studio head.
Know zip about the LA/HW social scene but this event must be near the top of the list, non?
The contrast is striking for RP, from crouching in the back of an SUV, to this.
Yes, it is a striking contrast. Obviously his management team is working hard to get him seen at prestigious industry events. Pity his personal life is so ghetto at the moment. His life, his choices, but it’s all just so laughable.
I see a huge diff from his Aussie BD2 fan event to this.
He didn’t want to be there for BD2 at all 😆
Hot Rob. That’s all I gotta say.
diaz is just not aging well. this haircut ages her. too much sun has left her old and haggard looking, squinty-eyed, and that horrible haircut does not help.
I get an off-kilter vibe from Diaz these days (reflected in her wardrobe choices), but the shoes are killer
They look like they are wearing the Same shoes? Cameron in black and rosies are in white!
Yes they are…. They have the Same buckle on the ankle strap!
I don’t know if Robert Pattinson was the most notable, but he was REALLY gorgeous, that’s for sure.
I hope Cameron didn’t have to pay for that dress because she was conned!
The color is beautiful on Rosie but I hate the dress.
Love both girls shoes though!!
Salma looks the best.
Cam’s face and hair…just no. Hate the shoes also. The dress could have been nice without the fake flowers at the neck and the horrible sleeves.
Her legs look amazing.
sad. to me salma looks like a kartrashian sister. can’t unsee it. she used to bring it with fire! where did she go?
Oh rosie…what a body!
Right?? Damn, she’s hot! She and sparkles should get it on!!
Rob is establishing himself. He takes his career very seriously.
Sorry but Cameron looks like she’s channeling Goldie Hawn from the Laugh In days.
Great comment!
Carol Brady would have worn it better…Give it up CD
Cameron’s body is more balanced since she splurged on the +2’s
I like Salma’s, it may be a little boring but it’s nice.
The other two gowns are a mess.
I saw a few seconds of Twilight on TV the other day, and was embarrassed for Sparkles. So lame!
Sparkle-Pattz No matter how many events you attend it’s not going to make people forget that you ran back to your cheating Girlfriend like a wuss. Grow some balls then put on the Gucci suit if you really wanna look like a man
The bright lips age Cameron something fierce. That trend is a friend to few women.
Wow love the outfit but that bright yellow is a lot for a pale blonde to carry off…This would look better against dark skin. It also looks too big for her. It’s wearing her not the other way around. Cameron could wear that style in a lighter fabric, in maybe a pale pastel blue or green. It looks so stiff.
Salma is Patsy Stone.
I hate that color on Cami and her hair looks awful but I give her a pass because next to Jen Aniston at least she is appropriately dressed for her age. I don’t really care to see Jen’s 43 year old boobs hanging out but that’s probably just me. When is she going to realize that it’s time to wear a proper bra and that she can’t get away with the same things she did in her 20’s without looking desperate? Yuck.
I think Cameron’s legs look GREAT in that dress. And while I like the color of the dress, the style is pretty awful and unflattering.
I was going to comment on her legs, too. They look amazing. Gimme!
Complaint about men’s suits: are they deliberately tailored that tight so you can see their crotches even with the coats buttoned? It is NOT attractive. God, tailoring is such a lost art-
Rosie, darling, you’re beautiful but have a little class and tame the side boob, please.
What in the world is Cameron wearing? She’s looking a little trashy lately. It might be time to tone down the hair color and make up.
Cameron’s dress is a rather unpleasant shade of yellow for any outfit. It’s not just the color though. The whole dress wears her like a traffic beacon, she is not wearing the dress. The sleeves are far too long and prominent for a short dress anyway. I don’t know what sort of dress would go with those sleeves. Apart from the color and sleeves, the dress is a nice design and fits well. Nice fabric also.
Instead of getting back together with Kstew, Robert should have gone out with someone stunning and classy like Rosie and then start doing the celebrity circuits like this!.
Amen. I keep my fingers crossed. Twilight, go to hell!
I see better dress in Goodwill than whatever piece of crap Cammie is wearing,she’s got some nice legs though.
Cameron Diaz looks like someone’s drunk auntie in these pics.
God Damned, the color of Cam’s dress seared my eyeballs first thing in the morning. Horrific.
I am delighted to see Robert attending these well chosen kinds of event. It is signalling maturity and his readiness to play in the big league. Twilight will be forgotten soon and he knows that but his performance in Cosmopolis got him noticed by esteemed directors and that is more important. With regards to Stewart, well… this is Hollywood, nothing lasts. She just got lucky this time because they still have Twilight to promote otherwise, the dynamic of this story would have been different.
Cameron & Rosie . . . Holy Mother of God!
I liked Rosie’s dress from the front. It being completely open on the side just ruined it for me.
What is the deal with these designers that seem almost to be offended that women actually have breasts?
If you can’t deal with them, then don’t design for them. Good grief!
That dress Cameron is wearing looks absolutely horrible on her. But I have to say that if it didn’t have a belt, if the body was a sheath, and if the chest was fitted properly, it would be something I would like for myself.
