Jessica Alba nose job controversy: Part II


On Monday we reported that it looked like Jessica Alba had a nose job based on HQs of her at two different events last week. She was at the premiere of “An Inconvenient Truth” last night, and her nose still looks different than it did at the ALMA awards, but not dramatically so.

We checked out earlier pictures of Alba, and it seems like the lighting at the ALMA awards was particularly unflattering.

She could be using some alternate method to shrink her nose, as was mentioned in the article we sourced. If she did have work done, it was subtle. At this point we don’t think she had a nose job.

Here is Alba at the ALMA awards, and at premiere of “An Inconvenient Truth” in LA. “An Inconvenient Truth” is a documentary about global warming featuring president Al Gore:

Director Davis Guggenheim eloquently weaves the science of global warming with Mr. Gore’s personal history and lifelong commitment to reversing the effects of global climate change. A longtime advocate for the environment, Gore presents a wide array of facts and information in a thoughtful and compelling way. “Al Gore strips his presentations of politics, laying out the facts for the audience to draw their own conclusions in a charming, funny and engaging style, and by the end has everyone on the edge of their seats, gripped by his haunting message,” said Guggenheim. An Inconvenient Truth is not a story of despair but rather a rallying cry to protect the one earth we all share. “It is now clear that we face a deepening global climate crisis that requires us to act boldly, quickly, and wisely,” said Gore.

Alba is concerned about the environment and drives a hybrid Prius. You can do your part by walking and riding your bike whenever possible, replacing your lightbulbs with energy star efficient bulbs, and reusing plastic bags. Minor changes do make a difference.

Kate Moss makes out with Jemima Kahn for a full minute (for charity)


A rich British businessman put in an over six figure bid to win a one-minute kiss with supermodel Kate Moss in a charity auction. Instead of taking the kiss for himself, he gave it Hugh Grant’s girlfriend to the delight of men everywhere:

KATE MOSS happily engaged in a lesbian kiss with British socialite JEMIMA KHAN for a charity donation of GBP60,000 ($108,000). The supermodel, who was dogged by controversy after she was photographed snorting cocaine last year (05), was due to kiss business tycoon PHILIP GREEN after he paid for the pleasure at a recent charity auction for the Hoping Foundation For Palestinian Refugee Children. But Green declined to accept a passionate one-minute kiss from Moss in the presence of his wife TINA, so he handed the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to the person he outbid - HUGH GRANT’s girlfriend Khan.

That’s hot and we hope the video comes out! It would be a lot more interesting than Kate snorting coke.

Jennifer Garner in talks for new political thriller


Alias is ending on May 22nd, and Jennifer Garner has said that she’s looking forward to some time off with her nearly six month-old daughter, Violet. She may not have much time to rest, because she’s negotiating for a role in The Kingdom, a political thriller:

It looks as if Jennifer Garner is in talks to join the cast of The Kingdom, a political thriller about an FBI team investigating the bombing of American workers in the Middle East. Directed by Peter Berg (Friday Night Lights) the Universal Pictures film already has Jamie Foxx and Chris Cooper on board. Given the plot outline, it looks like Garner would be in familiar government super agent territory, considering her long tenure as the indefatigable Sydney Bristow (an agent who knows both Krav Maga, electromagnetic lock picking and Pilates!).

Garner made headlines last week with her charity work with hurricane Katrina victims. She toured New Orleans with Reese Witherspoon and Cicely Tyson, and was brought to tears by a children’s performance:

“I’ve been shocked and heartbroken,” said Garner, star of TV’s “Alias” and the film “Elektra,” who cried when the children danced and sang “Something Inside So Strong” by South African singer Labi Siffre.

It’s good of her to lend her celebrity to the cause, and more government resources and effort should be put into support for Katrina victims. Many were without adequate housing for months.

Garner has said that Alias had a good run, but that she is sad to leave her character behind.

Whatever she does next, Garner is sure to do well. She’s a positive, friendly person and doesn’t take her success for granted.

Here she is outside The Late Show last night, and in New Orleans with Reese Witherspoon. There is also a scan from People magazine about their trip. [via]

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are going strong


Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban were rumored to be having relationship trouble, as reported by The National Enquirer at the beginning of the month. We mentioned that it didn’t seem true to us.

Kidman and Urban seem to be doing well, becaue they made a rare public appearance together on Saturday at a United Nations Development Fund for Women event. Nicole Kidman serves as a goodwill ambassador and hosted the event, a 30th anniversary celebration for the organization:

United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) Goodwill
Ambassador, actress Nicole Kidman lit up the Hilton New York ballroom today as she played host at UNIFEM’s 30th anniversary gala. Ms Kidman was joined by a bevy of luminaries from the diplomatic,
business, entertainment and fashion worlds, who gathered to honour Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, and Terry J. Lundgren, Chairman, President and CEO of Federated Department Stores, Inc.

“Commemorating UNIFEM’s 30th anniversary is a special opportunity for me to bring UNIFEM’s accomplishments to the attention of a larger audience of concerned citizens,” said Ms Kidman, as she welcomed a packed room of almost 500 guests.

“So many people have come together this evening, not just to look back on UNIFEM’s 30 very impressive years but to look ahead - when you’ve been blessed with a fortunate life, it is very much your duty to find the places where you can give back. I’m so proud to be part of UNIFEM’s present and future.”

UNIFEM aims to “foster women’s empowerment and gender equality” through programs supporting women throughout the world.

In the pictures of the event, there was no sign of the wedding ring that Nicole was spotted wearing while in the Hamptons at the end of April. She is wearing the engagement ring that she has been seen with at earlier events. It’s also difficult to tell if she’s pregnant, as has been widely rumored.

That’s good news that Nicole and Keith are donig well, and we hope a wedding for the two will happen soon.

Oprah’s Legends Ball, with Janet, Mariah, and Tyra


Oprah held her “Legends Ball” last night to honor the achievements of African-American women. Celebrities pictured include Oprah Winfrey, Janet Jackson, Jermaine Dupri, Tyra Banks, Mariah Carey, Spike Lee, Diddy, Smokey Robinson, Pam Grier, Dionne Warwick, Gayle King, Cicely Tyson, Deborah Roberts, Antonio LA Reid , and Nate Berkus.

A two hour special featuring highlights from the 2005 Legends Ball will air on ABC this Monday:

The special is scheduled to air at 8 p.m. ET Monday, May 15, leading into the two-hour season finale of “Grey’s Anatomy.” It will feature interviews with some of the honorees and others who attended the ball, along with footage from the events of the weekend: a lunch for the honorees, a formal, white-tie ball and a gospel brunch that featured the likes of Patti LaBelle and Gladys Knight.

In addition to the honorees, among those in attendance at the weekend’s events were Halle Berry, Sidney Poitier, Angela Bassett, Tom Cruise, Barbra Streisand, Sen. Barack Obama, Maria Shriver and Quincy Jones.

In the pictures of the event, Janet Jackson looks fit and happy, and Mariah Carey looks pretty good even though she’s wearing a stripper cut-out dress. 70s siren Pam Grier looks pretty bad, but I looked her up and she suffered from cancer in 1998 and was given 18 months to live. She was gorgeous in Jackie Brown in 1997. Hopefully she’s on the road to recovery and will get a makeover soon.

Idiot pays $56,000 for single yoga lesson with Gwyneth Paltrow


In a charity auction for The Prince’s Trust, a single yoga lesson with Gwyneth Paltrow went for £30,000, nearly $56,000 USD:

A FAN has paid £30,000 for a yoga lesson with Gwyneth Paltrow.

The Hollywood actress, 33, was stunned when told the amount.

The mum of Apple, two, and Moses, born last month, donated her time for a charity auction in aid of The Prince’s Trust 30th anniversary.

Gwyneth… said: “Someone’s spent a great deal of money on it so I’m going to have to really come up with an excellent plan.” But she added: “Unfortunately I can’t do it in the nude or anything to make it really exceptional but I will try and come up with a good plan for a yoga lesson.”

[via]

We don’t like Gwyneth much because she seems quite snotty, but reader Millie points out that she is super-nice to a friend of hers. Angelika also bashed us for bitching about Gwyneth’s night out so soon after her second child was born.

Regardless it’s nice that she’s donating her time to a worthy cause. Gwyneth’s one hour of time is worth much more than $56,000. She made $3.6 million for a three-minute cameo in the film Infamous, or $1.2 million per minute.

Teri Hatcher spills her guts on Oprah (update: video)


I want to dislike Teri Hatcher, I really do. In fact before I read the synopsis of her interview on the Oprah site I had the opinion that the woman can’t snap out of her crybaby routine. After reading what she said and getting an idea of what she went through, I have to say that it kind of touched me. I hope that she can get some therapy and realize that she has it pretty good now and that the past is behind her.

She talked a lot about her childhood abuse and how painful the situation was. She also said that Ryan Seacrest dumped her after a couple of dates, and made it sound like she actually bought into the situation:

In March 2006, she was photographed kissing American Idol host Ryan Seacrest on a secluded beach. Oprah wants to know…what’s the deal with that?

“It’s such a non-story” Teri says. “All the things you read in the tabloids about me and men are really non-stories.”

Teri says she and Ryan were set up by a mutual friend, and after two group dinners, they met for a lunch date at an out-of-the-way location. “Interestingly enough, I haven’t seen him since that day,” she says. “We knew that the [pictures] had been taken, which must have bothered him enough. An hour after he dropped me off, he called to say, ‘I don’t think I can do this with you.’”

She denied dating Clooney at all, and said that she only went on one date with him. She also said she doesn’t use botox and talked about the fake hair and boob tape that everyone uses to look better on the red carpet.

She looks pretty bad in recent pictures so maybe she doesn’t use botox and that’s the problem. As for her relationship with Clooney, I really doubt that they only had one date. There were all sorts of rumors about that. Still, now that I discovered quotes from a personal trainer about Katie Holmes that were completely made up, I have a lot less faith in the gossip industry.

Hatcher has a new memoir out, called “Burnt Toast,” in which she chronicles her sad love life. She reveals that she didn’t have sex with her second husband on her honeymoon, and they only had sex once in the year her daughter was conceived.

Hatcher says she’s now looking for love and wants lots of sex. As we pointed out earlier, this is not the way to go about it, but at least it will sell books.

Here she is on Oprah. There’s a short video clip for the show on the Oprah website. (This is up as of today, May 3rd, and may be removed shortly)

Update: Video segment where Teri discusses the Ryan Seacrest situation.

Paris Hilton got booed by the crowd at a basketball game


When Paris and Stavros were shown on the Jumbotron at a Lakers game on Easter Sunday, she got booed by the crowd despite the fact that she was wearing a Lakers shirt:

While celebrities such as Jack Nicholson and Dyan Cannon were cheered when they were shown on the Jumbotron late in the game, Paris Hilton was loudly booed despite wearing Lakers colors. After she stopped smiling and waving for the camera, she turned to her boyfriend Stavros Niarchos III and sarcastically said, “Wow, thanks.”

Even though she went to a basketball game on Easter, Paris claims she’s deeply religious:

She tells Michael Musto for an Out magazine cover story. “I’m Catholic. Of course, they’re not going to run pictures of me in church,” she said. In the interview, which was filmed for an episode of “The Simple Life,” Hilton said of “Jealousy,” her song about Nicole Richie: “I brought her on the show, and all of a sudden she became this different person.”

It’s not very Christian to diss people publicly, is it? Of course we wouldn’t know.

Here she is with Courtney Love and her sister Nicky at the “Sober Day USA” Launch Party with The Brent Shapiro Foundation For Drug Awareness in Hollywood. Brent Shapiro was the 24 year-old son of famous attorney Robert Shapiro. He died of a drug overdose last year despite being sober for a year and a half and turning his life around. He died after drinking and taking just a half tab of ecstacy. The Brent Shapiro foundation aims to raise awareness about drug abuse and decrease the stigma associated with discussing the problem.

It looks like Courtney and Paris are exchanging numbers. No comment.

Update: Paris and Stavros have split. Again.

Why is Gwyneth Paltrow going out at night already?


I don’t like Gwyneth Paltrow because she’s pretentious, so take my criticism or what it is - but why is she going out at night already? She just had a baby not even three weeks ago. Maybe she only popped out for a couple of hours, but newborns need to nurse about every 2-3 hours at that age. She could have pumped or he could be on formula, not that there’s anything wrong with that. If she’s nursing you’re not supposed to introduce a bottle until they’re a month old, though.

Yes, it’s really snarky to criticize her for getting some time alone, but you know, she’s so snotty and ungrateful that she deserves it.

Here she is at New York’s Food Bank Can-Do Awards Dinner on 4/25. Micheal Stipe was obviously there too. [via]

Russell Simmons gets cosy with 20 22 year-old “America’s Top Model”


48 year-old Simmons, the founder of Def Jam records and owner of Phat Farm clothing, met his soon-to-be ex-wife Kimora when she was 17 and he was 35. They have two daughers, Ming Lee, 6, and and Aoki Lee Kyoko, 3 and a half.

Russell Simmons’ relationship with 23 year-old model Denise Vasi is said to have hastened the end of his marriage. Russell and Kimora remain on friendly terms for the sake of their businesses, and Russell has publically encouraged Kimora to have an affair too.

Simmons apparently wasn’t satisfied doing yoga with his lovely new girlfriend, because The NY Post reports that he was all over 20 22 year-old “America’s Top Model” winner Naima Mora:

After conspicuously making the rounds a couple of nights with 23-year-old model Denise Vasi, Simmons was on the prowl Thursday night. The hip-hop mogul and estranged husband of Kimora Lee Simmons showed up early and alone to the Complex magazine fourth-anniversary party at the Classic Car Club on Hudson and Broome, and he was looking for love. Spies say he quickly settled on “America’s Next Top Model” winner Naima Mora , and the two spent the rest of the evening huddled in a corner.

Simmons may have a penchant for young models, but does shows a sense of personal responsibility in his dealings with the public. He ran a hip-hop summit yesterday to try to teach financial matters to young people:

The headliners include Alicia Keys, T.I., Nas, LL Cool J and Fabolous. But money - not music - will take center stage today as rap mogul Russell Simmons brings his Hip Hop Summit on Financial Empowerment to New York for the first time.

Some 2,200 people are expected to fill the Hammerstein Ballroom on West 34th Street starting at 1:30 p.m. to learn about saving, budgeting, credit cards, FICO scores and home and car ownership.

It’s all part of Simmons’ nationwide drive to harness the power of hip hop culture to teach money to young people.

While financial experts will be on hand to dole out hard-nosed information, Simmons is looking to his star presenters to rouse the crowd with their own rags to riches stories.

The Summit also touted a new pre-paid Visa card while expousing the dangers of personal credit.

Here are some pictures of Mora, the winner on season 4. There are also pictures of Russell Simmons at the First Hip Hop Summit on Financial Empowerment yesterday. Other attendees include Jinx, Nas, and LL Cool J.
