Al Pacino & Jessica Chastain Premiere "Wilde Salome"
Looking as if a new romance may be in the works, Jake Gyllenhaal and Rashida Jones were spotted spending time together over the Labor Day holiday weekend in Los Angeles.
The "Source Code" stud and the "Friends with Benefits" actress - both of whom are single - sat close to one another as they shared lunch with a few friends at the trendy cafe Gratitude on Sunday afternoon (September 4).
Upon finishing their meals, Jake and Rashida exited the eatery with Miss Jones taking time to play with Gyllenhaal's German Shepherd, Atticus, before the two went their separate ways.
The sighting comes as both parties have had their fair share of fizzled out relationships - with Jake having dated ladies including Reese Witherspoon and Ashley Greene while Rashida was an item with the likes of Tobey Maguire, Mark Roson and Jon Favreau.
Finishing off her time at the Venice Film Festival, Madonna jetted from the Italian city to London's Heathrow Airport for a connecting flight to JFK Airport in New York City on Sunday (September 4).
The Material Girl was accompanied by her children Rocco, David, Mercy James and Lourdes Leon - with the group smiling it up upon touching down in the Big Apple despite the long hours in the air.
During her time in Venice, Madonna premiered her new movie "W.E." - of which she co-wrote the screenplay with Alek Keshishian while also tending to directing duties.
She also announced that she plans to release her first new album since 2008's "Hard Candy" in the spring of 2012.
Already having put in a little work on the disc, the 53-year-old expects to drop her first single in February or March.
Supporting her man from a player's box perch, Brooklyn Decker watched on as Andy Roddick took on Julien Benneteau during Day Seven of the 2011 US Open in New York City on Sunday (September 4).
The stunning supermodel/actress drew plenty of looks at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center venue as she intently rooted for her tennis star husband ended up winning in straight sets 6-1; 6-4; 7-6.
The outing comes as Miss Decker had an embarrassing incident during Andy's second round match on Friday night, as she was heckled by media members while waiting for Roddick to leave the dressing room after winning his debut match.
Clad in a long sweatshirt, Brooklyn was mistaken for a fellow press colleague, during which time she received jeers with numerous journalists screaming out, "Hurry up and get on the bus," while completely unaware that they were talking to Roddick's wife. Onlookers tell that Decker turned a bit red while hurriedly walking towards a players' van.
Proudly showing off his on-court prowess, Justin Bieber took to Atlanta, Georgia to hoop it up in the LudaDay Celebrity Basketball Game 2011 on Sunday afternoon (September 4).
With the Ludacris hosted charity matchup taking place at the Morehouse Forbes Arena, the "One Time" hitmaker captained a squad appropriately named "Team Bieber" while taking on Team Luda during the Peach State b-ball action.
Talking plenty of smack prior to game time, Justin tweeted the day before tipoff, "#TEAMBIEBER is goin hard on sunday in ATL. #LUDADAYWEEKEND. Victory is the only outcome! WHO IS COMING?! #charity"
Later in the night, the 19-year-old sensation wrote, "finished in the studio for the night. did something real special for u. now heading to ATL for this bball game btw #TEAMBIEBER and #TeamLuda"
Backing up his proclamation, Ludacris fessed up that Team Bieber emerged victorious by posting a message reading, "FINAL SCORE 134-132 TEAM BIEBER.FUN GAME.SPECIAL SHOUTS TO KEVIN DURANT, CARMELLO,CP3,JOHN WALL & JUSTIN BIEBER HIMSELF.$10K TO CHARITY!"
Along with the LudaDay doings, Justin also posted a video of himself copying NBA point guard Steve Nash's crossover move while girlfriend Selena Gomez cheered him on (watch above), with which he tweeted, "hold up though...is that the REAL @SteveNash - yes...yes it is...#crossover. @ludacris we comin 4 u! #TEAMBIEBER"

Landing herself another cover gig to coincide with her "Hart of Dixie" TV show's series premiere, Rachel Bilson graces the front page of the October 2011 issue of Women's Health.

For the sci-fi thriller, Damon teamed back up with director Steven Soderbergh - who also directed him in the “Ocean's Eleven” movies starting back in 2001.
“Steven sent me the script with a note that said, ‘Read this and then go wash your hands,’” said Damon, with a laugh. “After seeing this movie in a theater filled with strangers, I’m sure that thought will definitely cross peoples’ minds.”

The former "Two and a Half Men" star was alongside his ex-wife Brooke Mueller, as well as their twin boys Bob and Max, to celebrate his special day with friends and loved ones.
Following the evening meal, a smiling Sheen exited the eatery with son Bob in his arms - with his little one proudly holding a big red balloon with 'Happy Birthday' written on it.
Sounding as if fellow ex Denise Richards was also on-hand, Sheen tweeted after the birthday dinner, "Love you and the girls..!!! Thanks for a great birthday dinner!! Great night! xo c"
The message was in response to an earlier tweet by Miss Richards, as she wrote, "Happy Birthday @charliesheen !!!!!!!!!!!"

The photoshoot took place back in May, with Kim writing about the experience on her blog by telling, "What an amazing day! We shot with the living legend herself, Annie Leibovitz! I swear this was such an eye opening day. She shot our Kardashian Kollection for Sears ad campaign!"
The newlywed brunette beauty added, "I can’t give away any details, but we have never been shot like this before and it was soooo fun shooting with Kourtney and Khloe… Mason even made a cameo!"
Meanwhile, Miss Leibovitz was seemingly so taken by the Kardashian sisters that she's hosting a party for the ladies at her New York City studio next week.

On hoping to get more intelligent as time progresses:
"I think the older you get, the wiser you get. I can’t wait. I’m really excited and definitely gonna celebrate and do something spectacular. I’m gonna be in South America so I’ll have to do something pretty fun. A carnival of Britney?’"
As the saying goes - she got it from her momma! Doing some bonding in their bikinis, Audrina Patridge and her mother Lynn were spotted at a Malibu, California beach on Wednesday (August 31).
Enjoying the sunny west coast locale, the pair sported matching teeny teal two pieces as they took to their midweek stroll along the shore with Audrina also tossing on a hot pink swimsuit during the morning romp.
Looking to have recovered from a nasty bee sting on her left foot incurred during a barefoot walk the day before, the fabulously fit mom and daughter duo were all smiles for the impending shutterbugs.
As for what is next on Audrina's agenda? She's heading to Sin City, as she revealed via Twitter, writing, Whose going to Vegas this weekend??!!!.... If so stop by vanity at the hard rock September 3rd!! Xo."
