The Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art held a ball last night to celebrate the opening of an exhibit on British design. Sienna Miller, wearing an awful gold sequined minidress and black tights, served as co-chair for the event.

The guy dressed like a cabaret pirate posing with Charlize Theron is Dior designer John Galiano. He’s responsible for her monstrosity of an Oscar gown with the giant shoulder bow. Sienna Miller is shown with Christopher Bailey, Burberry’s creative director.

We have over 100 pictures from the event.

In an awesome quote, Russell Crowe lets loose on Sharon Stone, saying that she’s had a lot of bad work done and looks like a orangutan:

That’s hysterical and we can’t wait to see what Stone says back!

Sharon Stone just doesn’t look bad because of plastic surgery. She has a bad personality of course, but she also doesn’t know how to dress. She was photographed at Koi restaurant in Beverly Hills on April 25th. WTF is she wearing here? She’s tied a scarf around her neck like a tie and she’s wearing all black with ill-fitting leather pants and a crocheted jacket with a fur collar over a see through top. That’s just wrong.

Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey may be ready for a reconciliation. Mike Walker of the National Enquirer reports that they have been meeting up secretly at out-of-the-way hotels in the San Fernando Valley:

Walker bets that they’lll reconcile, and it looks that way to us, too! In his Rolling Stone interview, Lachey admitted that he’s still very much in love with Simpson. Simpson has also been spotted wearing her wedding ring around her neck to remind her of happier times. Let’s hope that Simpson has realized what she’s been missing and that she’ll grow up enough to weather the storms that come up in every long term relationship.

Meanwhile Lachey has blasted reports that Lindsay Lohan intends to get in his pants, saying he doesn’t consider her worthy, and doesn’t know anyone else who does, either!

Here’s Jessica stopping for food and going tanning in LA yesterday. [via]

Sienna Miller is taking herbal breast enhancement pills in a bid to increase her cleavage.

A friend of mine took those things a couple of years ago, and claimed they actually worked. She said they made her ass bigger too, though. At least she’s trying to do it naturally instead of opting for the surgical route right away.

Sienna will design her own jeans as part of her deal with Pepe. It’s a good thing that she’s limited to jeans and can’t do damage with a full fashion line. Remember how she said she would never design her own clothing line? Guess she considers this an exception.

Here she is at the Costume Institute Gala yesterday. Her hair is a mess. Has she ever looked polished and presentable?

The National Enquirer is running an exclusive that claims that Keith Urban has called off plans to marry Nicole in order to focus on his sobriety. They claim that Nicole had a fall wedding in Tahiti planned, but that Urban canned it and wants time off from the relationship:

This doesn’t seem true to us for a few reasons. First of all, Nicole may not have been wearing her engagement ring while she was in the Hamptons, but she was seen with a plain gold band that looked suspiciously like a wedding ring.

From what we heard, Nicole was planning a summer wedding in Australia, not a fall wedding in Tahiti. The Sun reports today that Nicole has set the date for June 25th, beating Tom and Katie’s expected 4th of July wedding.

Urban may have wanted some time away, but it sounds like a temporary thing, and the “insider” may have been reporting old news. They made a reference to the CMT awards, which were on April 10th, nearly a month ago. Keith spoke of Nicole specifically at the CMT awards, in what was viewed as his first public admission of their relationship. Plus, Nicole could be pregnant and has been seen with what may be a growing baby bump.

Hopefully Nicole and Keith will get married soon and put all these silly rumors behind them.

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:

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

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.

Gwen Stefani will include some tiny tennis shoes in her Lamb fashion line. She has announced plans to release gold-colored baby shoes under her label:

She won’t have much time to do everything. She is due to have her first baby with fellow rocker Gavin Rossdale in June.

David Blaine held the kick off press conference today at Lincoln Center for his week of living in a snow globe. As if it’s not entertaining enough for us to watch Blaine be a human goldfish for a week, he’ll attempt to escape from a bunch of chains and then try to break the world record for holding his breath:

I really doubt he’ll break the world record for holding your breath underwater. That’s got to be next to impossible fr someone who’s already worn down like that. It would have been good enough if he just lived in the water sphere for a week - he doesn’t have to throw the stupid chain stunt and breath holding into the mix.

So when Blaine dies, whenever it is, his obituary will include the fact that he lived in a coffin for a week, in a see-through box without food for 44 days, and in a water globe for seven days. I would prefer that mine says that I’m survived by my children. Really, the guy is an attention hound and is going to seriously hurt himself.

Pink has said that she found it endearing that her husband, Carey Hart, threw up with her in a bid to win her affection. She also said he could pee in his hand and offer it to her as a gift and she would think it was sweet.

Given all the crap she says along with her reputation, it seems pretty odd that she would call an average sex practice disgusting and say that she’s lazy in bed:

She must be trying to get press again because she hasn’t been quoted in over a week. Surely she’s not serious. Sharon Stone would vehemently disagree and would consider her at risk for rape! If this is true, we feel sorry for her husband. She can strip for him but she can’t do her wifely duty.
