Here are the photos from the big opening night of the Cannes Film Festival, the premiere of The Great Gatsby. I actually had pretty low expectations for everyone at this premiere – I was preparing myself for a major let-down, but I was pleasantly surprised. Sure, there were some celebrities phoning it in (Cough Isla Fisher cough), but Carey Mulligan led the pack in this Dior gown. It is really balls-out amazing. I would have expected this pale pink (-ish) color to wash her out, but it really doesn’t. There’s a touch of Audrey Hepburn in Carey, I swear.

I’m including some other lovely ladies below. Here’s Isla Fisher, blending in with the red carpet in this super-ruffled Oscar de la Renta. That’s unfortunate because this is a detailed dress and the details are just lost because of the color.

Solange Knowles looks kind of badass in this Stéphane Rolland Fall 2012.

Julianne Moore in Dior. OMG. NOOOOO. I love Julianne but NO.

Cindy Crawford in Roberto Cavalli. Eh. She looks like a game-show hostess.

Cara Delevingne in Burberry. I like the dress… but I think it would look more interesting on Rosie Huntington-Whiteley rather than this chick.

Here’s an early 1990s cover of Vogue featuring Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere, who were married for about four years. Sometimes, I even forget that these two were ever together even though they were really one sharp looking couple back in the day. When I’m reminded of their former hotness together, I often find myself wondering exactly what went wrong in that marriage. Was it Richard’s roving eye and handsy ways? Or did Cindy believe a certain terrible rumor for which Sylvester Stallone sort of takes ownership? Well, Cindy is talking now on an upcoming episode of “Oprah’s Master Class” (which sounds like another OWN disaster in the making) about she and Richard’s 17 year age difference, which she said was the major deal breaker. Interesting:

Their love didn’t last a lifetime, but Cindy Crawford will always cherish the lessons she learned during her four-year marriage to Richard Gere. The model spoke candidly about their short-lived union during the March 11 episode of Oprah’s Master Class, citing their 17-year age difference as the biggest issue in their relationship.

The stars met in the early ’90s during a star-studded barbecue at the late photographer Herb Ritts’ home. Crawford recalled, “I was 21. It was still all new to me. I met Richard Gere there. We pretty much started dating right away. When I was with him, that’s when I was becoming well-known as well.” The stars married four years later when Crawford was 25 and Gere was 42; they divorced in 1995.

“I just think your twenties, for women, is such a time when you’re starting to come into your own and feel your own power and connect to your inner strength, and it’s hard to do that — it’s hard to change — in a relationship, because what one person might have signed up for, all of a sudden, you’re not that anymore,” the model said. “I think I was more willing at 22 to be, like, ‘Okay, I’ll follow,’ but then you start going, ‘Well, I don’t want to just follow — I want to lead sometimes and I want to walk side by side sometimes.’

“When I would see how he was with fans when they approached him, a lot of the times it wouldn’t be a good moment to sign an autograph, shake a hand or sign a picture. But I got to look to him to see how he created boundaries for himself that felt good,” Crawford said. “Being a nice girl fro the Midwest, my inclination is always to give and say yes because I want people to like me. But then I saw Richard do it in a way that was like, ‘You know what? Sorry, I’m not doing that. But I see you. He felt it was really just about making that connection, looking someone in the eyes and making sure that they felt seen.”

Though her marriage to Gere didn’t work out, Crawford doesn’t view it as a complete failure. “Richard’s a super smart guy, and he’s interesting, and he’s interested, and I learned a lot about the world,” she explained. “It was a great chapter in my life.”

According to OWN, “Oprah’s Master Class” features “an unprecedented look into the minds of modern masters making a unique impact on the world and the lessons they’ve learned,” and I guess Cindy’s episode is about love and marriage. That sounds sketchy to me because I honestly don’t think there are any experts on marriage — none at all, and especially not most marriage counselors. It also sounds like a convenient excuse for Cindy (whom I love, by the way) to talk about those rumors that she and Rande Gerber are close to over after she dirty danced with Brody Jenner after getting drunk and making a fool out of herself in public.

Indeed, Cindy does “open up” to give her secret to a long-lasting (in this case, 14-year) marriage to Rande. In that regard, Cindy claims that she and Rande work because “We started off as friends, and I know that Rande and I, we will always be friends, no matter what. Being rooted and based in friendship, it keeps the relationship elevated. There’s always a certain level of respect. We really listen to each other. I would want that friendship in my life no matter what.” Does that sound about right? Obviously, spouses should also be friends, but it kind of sounds like Cindy is saying she can picture not being “with” Rande but still being friends. Or maybe I’m imagining things.

Here’s Rande and Cindy putting on their happy faces on 3/10 at the Stuart House benefit.

I was looking through the photos at the Jon Varvatos benefit for Stuart House, which took place at the Varvatos Boutique in LA yesterday. Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck were both there, they were the big “gets” as Kaiser puts it, and they of course posed separately for the most part. There’s at least one photo of them together, but we don’t have it, it was more of a candid. This is what they’ve done for years and I didn’t think much of it until I realized that they broke their own rule recently! These two posed together at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party after Ben’s big win. So they’ll make exceptions for big occasions, which is nice. Ben is surely very worried about creating another Bennifer 2.0 situation, so he’s talking about his wife as if she’s his co-worker and refusing to be photographed with her for most outings. It makes sense. I jest – sort of.

US Weekly had a brief interview with Ben at the event, and he revealed that he’s been just chilling at home with his wife following his Oscar win. That and getting mad at the paparazzi he used to court. Here’s more:

While the A-list couple were suitably dressed up for the fundraising event in honor of Stuart House, a rape treatment center, Affleck explained to Us Weekly that he’s been reluctant to get out of sweats post-Oscars. “Luckily, I’ve been able to just enjoy my good fortune the last couple of weeks, just sit back and take it in, not do anything, eat ice cream on the couch,” the actor, director and producer, 40, said. “It’s been a nice time, hanging out with my wife, that sort of thing, and we’re enjoying it.”

Affleck added to Us that he’s happy that the busy awards season is behind them. “Now, when I go out and spend my time at events I can choose events like this that have some cause, some benefit other than trying to go after something for my movie,” he explained of promotional duties. Nothing is wrong with that but it’s also important to balance that with this type of activity that feels good.”

[From US Weekly]

Ben is a hustler and he’ll tell you about it. This just reminds me that I’m glad Awards season is over and we can relax a little too.

I really like Garner’s styling here. She looks so pretty, casual and fresh. Her hair is lovely and looks polished without being fuzzy. The outfit leaves something to be desired in that the Fendi dress looks like it could use a belt, the cardigan is somewhat shapeless and those Gucci shoes don’t go with the look at all. Still, this is cute looking and suited for the occasion.

Ben was in some kind of wrinkled jacket. I don’t have a full length photo of him so what’s really standing out for me is his beard – it’s back! We heard that Ben shaved it off at an Oscar party, probably encouraged by Jen who had brought clippers with her in her purse. The last time we saw him he was sporting some sexy stubble, but he hasn’t bothered to shave since. I don’t mind him with a beard, he looks hotter with it usually, but the dude needs a haircut.

Also there we have Nina Dobrev, who is styled to look very young for once. She is wearing a bizarre Elie Saab dress with a striped full skirt and a kind of peek-a-boo lace front. Nina has worn Elie Saab many times on the red carpet and she usually hits it out of the park in that designer. So this is a rare miss.

Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber showed up, looking very matchy and together. We just heard rumors that she was getting wasted and hitting on young guys, but I would bet her husband is pretty much doing the same thing.

Bonus pics of Tiffany Amber Thieeson, her husband Brady Smith, and their daughter, Harper, who turns three in June. These are for Kaiser since she loves Tiffany.

This story is more than a little bit creepy, and I’m hoping that it’s not true due to what seems like sheer randomness, but Star has spoken to eyewitnesses who say that Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber (who have lasted 14 years so far) are basically kaput. Further, the story claims that Cindy acted like a drunken idiot at a recent swanky hotel event. She was allegedly trying to make Rande jealous and telling people, “My marriage is over!” What’s more, 47-year-old Cindy was said to be “drunkenly fawning over twentysomething Terraplane Sun guitarist Johnny Zambetti.” Here’s a picture of Johnny’s band (which I’d never heard of until now); he’s in the back row, third from the left. Weird.

It gets even worse from there. According to this fantastic tale, Cindy was also (in a room full of party witnesses) dirty dancing with Brody Jenner in a vain attempt to get back at Rande for cheating on her over the course of their marriage. Brody, of course, is a member of the Kardashian-Jenner clan and also dated Avril Lavigne for two years of blissful mutual douchiness. No, Cindy. Just NO.

Cindy Crawford is widely acknowledged to be one of the hottest women of all time, but at a concert at the Malibu Inn in early February, the 47-year-old supermodel was more of a hot mess! While downing drink after drink, she went on a wild dancing and flirting spree, with victims including Brody jenner and Johnny Zambetti, the lead guitarist of the headlinging band Terraplane Sun — all while Rande Gerber, her husband of 14 years, looked on unfazed.

As she openly hit on Johnny backstage, Cindy blurted out a possible reason why: “My marriage is over!” she said, according to eyewitness Lyle Riddle, Terraplane Sun’s drummer. “She certainly wasn’t acting like a married woman. She was acting like a single, 21-year-old party girl.”

Cindy’s rep insists that Cindy and Rande were at Malibu In that night to see their friend Shwayze and that Cindy was not flirting wiht any men or drinking, and adds that Cindy and Rande are “very happily married,” but Lyle tells a much different story. According to him, everyone at the bar noticed how out of control Cindy was acting that night. “She was drinking wine, beer and cocktails, and she seemed very intoxicated.”

In addition to putting the moves on Johnny — compimenting him and telling him about her thing for “hot band guys” — Cindy also showcased her dirty dancing skills, grinding on Brody in front of the entire room. “She was really drunka nd basically chasing Brody all around the bar,” another eyewitness says. “After awhile, he and his two guy friends started to mess with her, buying her shots and making her take them. She was loving the attention!”

One would think Rande, 50, would be disturbed, but the nightlife impresario didn’t bat an eye over his wife’s provocative antics, even as she climbed onstage — twice — to dance and whip her hair around for the cheering crowds. Rande, who was sitting at a big table with friends, “wasn’t paying Cindy any attention at all,” says a source. “He was completely checked out. It’s like it wasn’t even his wife up there.” His indifference only added fuel to speculations that the pair are all but finished.

According to a source, Rande’s indifference is precisely the reason Cindy’s behaving like a teenager in the first place — it’s her way of getting back at him for cheating on her throughout their marriage. In 2004, waitress Harmony Kubiak told Star that she and Rande had a steamy encounter at his club Whiskey Blue in New Orleans’ W hotel, and the rumors about his wandering eye haven’t stopped since.

“Cindy’s put up with a lot over the years and is acting out now as a way to deal with her frustration,” says an insider. “She always flirts with guys, and it’s raeally sad because I think she does it out of jealousy over Rande flirting with other women.”

[From Star, print edition, March 4, 2013]

What seems particularly damning about this story is that there were tons of witnesses to these alleged events, and the details include Rande completely ignoring this chain of events. So was Cindy just drunk off her ass and not in touch with reality, or are she and Rande experiencing definite, serious trouble with their relationship? Who knows. They’re both very pretty people with (probably) pretty big egos, and maybe there’s just not enough room for that much pretty and ego in one relationship. What I want to know is this … if Cindy and Rande do split, who gets custody of George Clooney?

God, I love Cindy Crawford. She was one of those amazing 1990s supermodels who actually dared to sport a little muscle on her bones, you know? Cindy always had a realistic figure and a girl-next-door-squared type of appeal, and she’s now 46 years old and still getting work, which is fairly unheard of as far as modelling is concerned. Of course, it’s very painful to remember how Cindy looked back in March when she’d done some tweaking; that is, Cindy had either indulged in an eye lift or some very aggressive Botox possibly combined with some eyelid surgery or fillers. As CB stated as well, Botox and fillers can have the paradoxical effect of making one look older, which is clearly the opposite of what one intends when consulting a plastic surgeon or dermatologist. Now Cindy is, um, ignoring that little hiccup, and she’s talking out about how makeup is something to avoid because it ages the face. She sort of has a point, and the Mail points towards these photos of evidence that Cindy’s theory works, but they forgot that she’s wearing sunglasses in these photos. I’m including some pictures of Cindy without sunglasses at the bottom of this post, but here’s what she had to say about aging:

As one of the world’s top models Cindy Crawford was used to wearing a thick face of makeup. And you might expect that as she aged she’d continue to plaster it on.

But the supermodel has revealed that she has in fact cut back on her use of war paint – and believes too much ages the face, “As I’ve gotten older I wear less makeup. It can make you look older, and hopefully we get more comfortable in our skin.”

She proved that point on Tuesday while out and about in Southern California’s most affluent city on Tuesday. The supermodel-turned-designer, 46, was casually chic in blue blouse, gray jeans and strappy heels, dark shades, tan purse and windblown hair completing her fashionable look. She wore minimal makeup, but she doesn’t really need it with that natural, earthy beauty.

Married 14 years to nightclub owner Rande Gerber, 50, and mother to two beautiful children, Kaia, 11, and Presley, 13, the world is Cindy’s catwalk.

I would agree that, in general, less makeup makes one look younger. One of my beauty habits is to only wear makeup (with the exception of some subtle eyeliner, which is rather indispensible but not in a Kate Middleton capacity) to a very important function or, say, out to dinner. People usually tell me that I look 25 years old without makeup, but — let’s face it — they’re full of crap since I’m 37 years old. At the same time, I don’t really mind hearing such ridiculous things. Hey, I can be vain too! So Cindy does have a point, but I find it rather unfortunate that Cindy is talking about feeling “more comfortable in our skin” when she’s clearly had some work done. Not that I can knock Cindy by any stretch — her fortune has always been her face, and it’s unfortunate that she felt the need to change her looks to keep up with the modelling industry when, obviously, she looked better before the work was done.

Here’s Cindy going (relatively) make-up free in Los Angeles on 9/11. She looks slightly less tweaked than she did last March, but she’s still not the same Cindy that she used to be.

Let’s start this story off with a rather embarrassing admission on my part. I adore Cindy Crawford to the point where I still do the arms segment from her first “Shape Your Body” workout video five times per week (although it’s now common knowledge that the legs segment should be avoided at all costs). Not that I actually watch the video — I’ve long since had that sh-t memorized. What I’m trying to say is that I’ve got a lot of goodwill and residual warmth for Cindy, who has always been a different breed of supermodel in that she has maintained a much more normal, toned body type that stands in stark contrast to the anorexic norm that is the modeling industry.

For the most part, Cindy’s approach to aging has been realistic as well, and she seems to generally aim for a more dignified, less tweaked look. However and as you can see though from the above comparison, something has gone amiss, and Cindy seems to have indulged in a bit too much filler treatment before a recent public appearance. Her makeup is much different than her usual softer look as well, so that may account for part of the difference we’re seeing, but In Touch has spoken to an “expert” who claims to know what’s going on:

At the Cliche Rum launch in LA on March 1, supermodel Cindy Crawford’s eye sockets looked a bit hollowed out. “Aggressive Botox injections or too much fat removal during lower eyelid surgery may responsible for her sunken appearance,” says Dr. Matthew Schulman. Whatever you do, Cindy, don’t get rid of that famous mole!

[From In Touch, print edition, March 19, 2012]

Cindy is 46 years old now, and she’s always made her living off her looks, so aging in the public eye must be extraordinarily difficult to manage. She must feel enormous pressure to look young, but like CB stated this morning, botox and fillers often have the unintended effect of making one look older, so it’s quite the tricky little paradox. I really do think that Cindy’s eye makeup is doing her no favors in these 2012 photos though, and one thing cannot be denied — her body still looks spectacular.

Back in 2009, Cindy looked much more like herself. That bod never quits, does it?

Here’s 2012 Cindy again. With any luck, these are only temporary fillers and botox that will wear off. Cindy has already demonstrated that she’s capable of aging gracefully, and I’d like to see a grand return to a more natural look for her.

A few months ago, Cindy Crawford’s 10-year-old daughter, Kaia Gerber, made her modeling debut (as seen above) in a Young Versace ad campaign. The general consensus from many of you is that Kaia was way too young for such a competitive field that’s focused on looks, and she should just be a kid for at least a little while longer. Well, Cindy Crawford agrees and has taken Kaia out of the modeling field for the immediate future.

Cindy’s stated reason for pulling the plug on Kaia’s career is that there are simply too few jobs available for someone as young as her daughter. However, I have to wonder whether Cindy is merely trying to save face within the industry and possibly saw something happen that she didn’t like. As in, maybe some sketchy photographer wanted Kaia to seductivly pose in skimpy clothing, and Cindy said, “F#*$ that sh*t.” After all, Cindy knows the drill and was probably being extra vigilant just to make sure her daughter didn’t fall into the wrong hands. If that’s the case, good for Mom:

Looks like Kaia Gerber is going to have to wait a few years before she becomes a supermodel like her mom!

After attracting massive amounts of attention for her Young Versace advertising campaign, Cindy Crawford has revealed that she is putting her 10-year-old’s modeling career on hold – and RadarOnline.com has the details.

“At this point, she’s too young to pursue a career,” the 45-year-old supermodel told The Daily about her “mini me”. “There aren’t even a handful of jobs for a 10-year-old girl.”

However, Crawford isn’t against the idea of Kaia following in her footsteps down the catwalk in the future.

“But if she’s 17 and wants to try it, of course, what can I say?”

Crawford continued about her daughter: “She kind of jokingly said – I’m not even sure if it was jokingly – ‘I might model first because you don’t have to know how to do anything, but then I want to be a baby nurse.’”

“I’m so thrilled that Kaia was chosen to be part of the first Young Versace campaign,” Cindy stated in a press release about Kaia’s Versace campaign at the time of release.

“I have so many fond memories of the times I spent with Gianni and Donatella. There is something so very special about the House of Versace. Being on-set with my daughter watching her in front of the camera was a fantastic experience. I am so proud of her.”

[From Radar]

As far as Kaia’s hopeful aspirations to one day be a pediatric nurse? I hope that happens. I really do. However, this situation reminds me of Reese Witherspoon’s early acting career when she was just getting noticed in Fear. There was an interview (which has disappeared, but I clearly remember hearing about it) where Reese stated that she really wanted to be a doctor (her dad is a surgeon) and planned on quitting acting after making a few more films. Well, we know how that worked out, right? So Kaia might really want to be an nurse, but if she truly gets bitten by the modeling bug (and with those looks, it’ll probably happen), those plans will likely fall by the wayside. Hopefully, Kaia will prove me wrong on that note because the world could use more nurses.

I’ve always secretly longed for the days when supermodels weren’t entirely emaciated and preparing for runway shows by exclusively ingesting consecutive weeks of protein shakes. So in other words, I really miss the decades when Cindy Crawford was a successful, big-time runway model. Of course, Cindy is now 45 and has, sadly, resigned herself to a face full of botox and fillers when in actuality she’d probably look far better without all of that fakery. Such a shame. At any rate, Cindy is now preparing to pass the torch to her daughter, 10-year-old Kaia Gerber (her father is Cindy’s husband, Randy, heir to the Gerber fortune), who has just completed her very first advertising campaign for Young Versace (see preview above).

Initially, I hesitated before covering this story since someone eloquently labelled me as “old” after I questioned whether Dakota Fanning was too young to pose on the cover of Cosmo alongside headlines such as “His Best Sex Ever” and “Um, Vagina, Are You Okay Down There?” at the relatively tender age of 17. Yes, I am a 36-year-old woman. Is that so shameful?

At any rate, Kaia is much younger than Dakota and perhaps obscenely young for the world of modelling. Hell, Kaia is even younger than 13-year old Lottie Moss (sister of Kate), who recently appeared in her very first Storm Management portfolio. However, I question whether it is inevitable whether gorgeous Kaia would eventually become a model anyway, so — let’s face it — what’s the big deal?

Like mother, like daughter!

Kaia Gerber, Cindy Crawford’s 10-year-old daughter, has landed her first fashion campaign — and it’s none other than Versace.

Kaia is the first face of Young Versace, the designer’s children’s line geared at kids 0-12. The modeling gig is extra special given the fact that Cindy was a well-known muse of Gianni Versace.

“Like her mother, Kaia has a very special gift. The camera really, really loves her,” Donatella Versace, Creative Director of Versace, said. “Having Cindy on-set for the shoot took me back to all the amazing Avedon shoots we worked on together. It was such a special treat watching Kaia walk in her mother’s footsteps!”

Judging from the first photo to release, Kaia is a natural in front of the camera rocking a cropped leather jacket and a high-waist skirt and she even manages to make socks and sandals look good together!

[From Yahoo!]

Speaking as a mother, this is a really tough call to make. My first instinct is to question whether Cindy is jumping the gun by tossing her 10-year-old daughter into the modeling ring, but it’s quite clear that Cindy is also present on the shoot to make sure that nothing inappropriate goes down. Obviously, Cindy knows the drill, and she knows that photographers will often try to make their subjects do inappropriate things just because they can. In other words, Kaia will probably never be photographed by Terry Richardson. I feel like Cindy knows best in this regard and will safeguard her daughter at least until the age of majority or emancipation.

However, my real question is this — does the outfit represented (and worn by Kaia) in the header photograph accurely represent the stated 0-12 audience? No preteen that I’ve ever known would ever be allowed to wear a skirt that short.

Here’s Cindy, her husband Randy Gerber, and Kaia shopping in Malibu on 12/4/11. In these photos especially, Kaia looks so much like her mother.

And here are Cindy, Rande, and Kaia in Cabo, Mexico on 11/27/11. This was one of the vacations in which Cindy met up with with George Clooney and Stacy Keibler. With these photos in mind, I do not look forward to the day that my daughter asks to wear a bikini.

Last year, I began to document Cindy Crawford’s descent into Botox-faced tragedy. I had always liked Cindy – she radiated a healthy, accessible beauty, and she was one of the big supermodels that I grew up with. But in May of 2011, Cindy’s Botox-face took a turn for the worse – it looked like she had a bad batch of ‘Tox or something, and one of her eyebrows was stuck in a weird angle. And then in October, she started to look super-puffy, like she’d gone in for the motherlode of fillers. Now, Cindy admitted years ago that she had gone in for Botox, and she wasn’t “above” some minor cosmetic work. But it gets to the point – and everyone gets to this point – where I have to ask: wouldn’t she look better had she not messed with her face at all? Anyway, Radar has one of their “expert claims random celebrity does X,Y,Z” stories, and this one is about what Cindy MIGHT be doing to her face.

Cindy Crawford attended the Los Angeles Lakers game on Tuesday night looking a little different in the face, and a board certified dermatologist exclusively tells RadarOnline.com it’s because the former supermodel appears to have had injections.

“Her cheeks are a lot fuller. She definitely had something injected in her cheeks. Most probably Radiesse or the other option would be Sculptra,” Dr. Ben Behnam said.

“They’re both designed to give people higher cheekbones. It’s very popular in the industry and her cheeks are visibly higher and fuller.”

On top of fillers and injections, Dr. Behnam tells RadarOnline.com it looks like the 45-year-old beauty had some Botox.

“Her eyebrows are also higher than before. She probably used Botox to raise the brow,” he said.

“Something else that’s different is she doesn’t have the definition in her jaw area, which could just be because she’s getting older.”

According to Dr. Behnam, injections like Sculptra are typically done over a period of months and can last years, so it’s hard to tell when the mother of two had the procedure done.

“She has what’s called the Triangle of Beauty (one side of the cheek to the other cheek to the chin area, creates a triangle) and right now she’s losing that triangle,” Dr. Behnam said.

“It gives her that look of not being young anymore. Because that’s how we perceive youth, is the triangle of beauty.”

Let’s not forget, Cindy has her own skin care line called Meaningful Beauty, which brags that it’s “Cindy’s anti-aging secret.”

Secret or no secret, “She still looks good for someone her age!” Dr. Behnam says.

[From Radar]

Cindy is 45 years old – and I kind of think she looks her age, if not older, with all of this extra work. Which just shows how far our perceptions of aging have been skewed. We look at puffy Botox-faces and our eyes register that something terrible has happened, but we’ve grown so accustomed to it, we just say, “Oh, she looks good… for her age.”

Besides that, it must be creepy for Cindy to have to hang out with all of George Clooney’s pieces every holiday, right? Especially since so many of them resemble her old face.

Current Cindy, from two nights ago:

Last night, I read a Daily Mail story about George Clooney traveling down to Cabo san Lucas yet again, for his millionth Mexican holiday of the year. First: when did Clooney become of the male version of Jennifer Aniston? Second: At first, the reports suggested that Clooney was flying solo in Cabo… meaning that Stacy Keibler was NOT traveling with him. But the Mail claimed that Cindy Crawford was there, so I got super-excited that Clooney might have dumped Stacy right before his big awards season push. Turns out, not so much. These are new photos of George and Stacy together in Cabo yesterday. You can see them riding in a golf cart together.

So… Stacy and George are still together. Oscar-Date Barbie will be Clooney’s Oscar Date, for better or for worse. But will she last much longer than the awards season? Elisabetta Canalis managed to stick around a lot longer than I was expecting, but then Eli messed it up by talking about marriage and babies and Clooney quickly had security escort her out. Stacy might fall into the same trap too – one look at her Twitter page, and it’s clear that she’s got love and babies on her mind. Poor Cray-Cray. At least she’s making money out of this relationship though – the NYDN just re-confirmed that Keibler’s appearance fee has jumped to $25,000 a gig, and that she’s in high demand now that she’s Clooney’s Girl.

I’m also including a photo of Cindy Crawford, the girl Clooney wishes he was with.
