On watching "Breaking Dawn" with co-star Taylor Lautner:
“I watched [Breaking Dawn] with Taylor for the first time. It was really fun. It’s fun to watch it with him because we actually sit and watch it. Me and Taylor are actual Twilight fans, so we can sit there and be totally into it! Whereas I sit there with Rob … he likes it, but he has just such a different energy.”

On Bella's relationship with Jacob in the "Twilight" series:
“I’ve always just loved Jacob and Bella so much. Taylor is great in this one.”

On wrapping up her work on the "Twilight" franchise:
"On the final night of filming I was literally pulling out my hair and crying and having to walk away for a second because my voice wasn't working anymore."

Gearing up for tomorrow night's big ado, Lady Gaga made a colorful arrival to the Beacon Theater in New York City on Friday (September 30).

Clad in an all-yellow ensemble, the "Judas" singer was on-hand for rehearsals for Sting's 25th Anniversary Concert - as the show will benefit the Robin Hood Foundation, which fights poverty in NYC.

Meanwhile, we're also just days away from the release of Gaga's collaboration with Cher on "The Greatest Thing".

Of the much-talked-about track, producer RedOne told MTV, "I think it's timeless. The beautiful thing about this song is, it's very uplifting, very uplifting. It's emotional, but it has dance on it, and it has a dance vibe on it. It's just a timeless song. You can play it with the guitar, the piano, with whatever instrument you want. You can sing it a cappella, you know what I mean, it's that kind of song.

"I'm very excited about that song," RedOne added. "And it's an event. Cher and Lady Gaga: How big can it get?"

Partaking in a holiday how-to creative effort to close out the week, Lauren Conrad was spotted arriving at a swanky salon in West Hollywood, CA on Friday (September 30).

As for the week-ending doings, LC tweeted, "At @Kristin_Ess 's fancy new salon shooting a @TBDofficial tutorial for Halloween hair"

Alessandra Ambrosio: Dog-Walking Diva


While dating Jennifer Aniston has plenty of perks, it seems Justin Theroux may have been the victim of a jealous fan and his BMW motorcycle paid the price.

Theroux’s ride was parked outside Aniston’s West Village apartment yesterday when it was vandalized with 25 slices of “what clearly was bologna.”

An eyewitness said the cold cuts were stuck to the seat, wheels, handlebars, muffler, and engine at approximately 8:00am.

The source told press, "I got the impression it was some weird message, like, 'You're full of bologna.’ The bike was in otherwise in fine condition."

Getting some fresh air and sunshine, Alessandra Ambrosio was spotted out for a stroll in Santa Monica yesterday afternoon (September 29).

This past weekend, Alessandra helped her husband Jamie Mazur celebrate his birthday with a trip to Fogo De Chao Brazilian Steakhouse.

And on Tuesday, Ms. Ambrosio attended the David LaChapelle exhibition opening in West Hollywood.

Rihanna's Odyssey Arena Arrival


She’s always been known for her outrageous party attitude, and Ke$ha brought her A-game to the Rock in Rio music festival earlier today (September 29).

The “Your Love Is My Drug” songstress took the stage with her band for a high-energy performance of her myriad hit songs including "Your Love Is My Drug," "Blah Blah Blah," "We R Who We R," "Cannibal," "Blow" and "Take It Off".

Ke$ha has been a busy girl with her current Get $leazy tour, and she joined an eclectic group of musicians scheduled for the Cidade Do Rock stage.

She played just before Stevie Wonder’s set with other acts in the day's lineup including Jamiroquai, Janelle Monae, and Legiao Urbana.

Capping off another day with a romantic evening of togetherness, Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux stepped out on a dinner date in New York City on Thursday night (September 29).

The well-dressed duo leisurely walked alongside one another while being led to their table at Tom Colicchio’s ritzy Craft restaurant - which was awarded three stars by the New York Times and won the prestigious James Beard Award for Best New Restaurant.

Jennifer and Justin's evening out comes after a busy week of promoting for Miss Aniston - as she's been boosting interest in her Lifetime directorial effort "Five" - which debuts on October 10th.

Enjoying each and every moment of her time behind the camera, the 42-year-old said of the project, "It was like a dream come true, honestly, and such an important piece that we all were invested in."

With fellow stars such as Demi Moore and Alicia Keys also directing short pieces that comprise "Five," Aniston added, "It was like working with, not only our best friends, but they’re also incredible producers, and all of us coming together. We just can’t believe that we’re actually here. It’s amazing.”

As for whether she would like to direct again in the future, Jennifer told, “Sure hope so. That’s the plan. I’m not sure what or when or where, but yes.”

They've been nearly inseparable over the past week, and Vanessa Hudgens spent her Thursday (September 29) venturing about Studio City, alongside little sister Stella.

Prior to the sisterly escapade, the former "High School Musical" star grabbed a solo bite to eat for lunch and hit her local Best Buy - emerging with an Epson Projector in her arms.

Miss Hudgens then scooped up her sis with the two lovely ladies dropping by a pumpkin patch before shopping for household needs at Ralph's Grocery Store.

The day's doings come as Vanessa is currently gearing up to shoot a thriller titled "Frozen Ground" - which is based on actual events of "an Alaska State Trooper partnering with a young woman who escaped the clutches of serial killer Robert Hansen to bright the murderer to justice."

Given her longtime starring role in the “Harry Potter” series, it was important for Emma Watson to choose her next project carefully so as to give her career the right direction.

And the Hermione Granger gal ended up going with “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” a move she’s proud of.

Emma told press, "Honestly, I had never read the book before, but a lot of my friends at Brown were hugely into it, and when I told them I had this script, they were crazy excited.”

"I feel incredible about it. I feel like I've been waiting for 'Perks.’ I was waiting for this story, for this script, for this moment, for these people to do it with me. I'm so glad I didn't do anything that I didn't care about."




Clearly elated over her travel plans, a beaming Lea Michele was spotted as she arrived at LAX Airport in Los Angeles for an outbound flight on Thursday afternoon (September 29).

The "Glee" actress offered up a big wave and smile as she stylishly entered the metro terminal while prepping for her trip to France for Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2012 Ready-to-Wear.

Miss Michele took to Twitter numerous times over the course of the day to boast about the trip to Europe, as she first teased her many followers by writing, "Good morning everyone! Packing my suitcase and getting ready to take off! Can you guess where I'm off to....?"

After giving her fans time to take stabs at correctly picking her destination to no avail, the 25-year-old revealed, "Oui oui! Paris here I come!"

An ecstatic Lea then added, "So excited...I adore Paris and can't to get there! See you soon France! Can't wait* :)"

Continuing work on her latest project, Kristen Stewart was spotted on the set of “Snow White and the Huntsman” earlier today (September 29).

The fresh-faced "Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn” actress looked effortlessly stunning in an off-the-shoulder gown while filming scenes alongside a graceful white horse on location in the South West Coast of Wales, UK.

Meanwhile, Kristen recently met up with supermodel Kate Moss when they shared the front row at London's Fashion Week - and, as one source put it, their time together was an all-out love fest.

“She [Kristen] told Kate how much she loved her wedding pictures and how much she admired her," with Moss telling her how much "she loves the Twilight films," the insider told press.

Additionally, the pair chatted it up about love and how to make it work with their A-list status, as the insider dished, “I think they even discussed how to make relationships work in the public eye," adding, “Kate would’ve had some great tips for keeping love alive when you’re living apart due to work.”



She's risen the ranks to become one of the most popular ladies in the music world, and Adele has just released the music video for her hit single "Someone Like You".

The 23-year-old British singer's new visual offering is taken from her highly decorated album "21" - which has hit the number one spot on the charts in a staggering eighteen countries.

As for the video, "Someone Like You" was shot in Paris, France in the early morning hours while put together under the direction of Jake Nava.

The smudged black and white footage remains simplistic by portraying Adele walking along the desolate streets while gazing over the Seine river - with the focus being moreso on the beautiful vocals rather than distracting visuals.

She's sure to draw a crowd wherever she goes, and Rihanna was greeted by a frenzy of fans upon her arrival to the Odyssey Arena in Belfast, Ireland earlier today (September 29).

Embarking on the first of three nights of concerts at the venue, the "S&M" songstress was all smiles as she moved past nearby shutterbugs in her sunglasses and sheepskin coat.

Wrapping up work on her latest and quite possibly most controversial video to date, RiRi finished day three of shooting for "We Found Love" yesterday.

Upping expectations for the clip's debut, Rihanna tweeted, "I really cant stop thinking about this video we just shot!EASILY the BEST video I've done thus far!Definitely my fav 1,very powerful."

We die…
[Enrique Iglesias]
She called me up late at night
We called an innocent crime
She’s such a good waste of time
But in the back of my mind
You know you’re all I’m thinking of
You know you’re all I’m thinking of
[Chorus]
I can’t catch a single breath baby,
Help me now, help me now
Hurry up it’s killing me the way I need your mouth to mouth, mouth to mouth
I can’t catch a single breath baby,
Help me now, help me now
Hurry up it’s killing me the way I need your mouth to mouth, mouth to mouth
[Jennifer Lopez]
Kills me to let it inside
Feels like the wrong kind of guy
He falls asleep by my side
But in the back of my mind
You know you’re all I’m thinking of
You know you’re all I’m thinking of
[Chorus]
I can’t catch a single breath baby,
Help me now, help me now
Hurry up it’s killing me the way I need your mouth to mouth, mouth to mouth
I say you make me feel alive
I say you bring me back to life
I can’t catch a single breath baby,
Lay me down, mouth to mouth
[Break]
[Chorus]
I can’t catch a single breath baby,
Help me now, help me now
Hurry up it’s killing me the way I need your mouth to mouth, mouth to mouth
I say you make me feel alive
I say you bring me back to life
I can’t catch a single breath baby,
Lay me down, mouth to mouth

Also touching on the topic of life in the limelight, Scarlett opined, "It's an adjustment, but I think there are certain instances where you give a lot of yourself and finally you have to kind of put your foot down and say, 'Oh wait, I'm taking it back.'"

“It’s a special privilege to meet our Commander in Chief, and I’m a big Obama supporter no matter what he’s been through. He’s been beaten up these past couple of years.”

“He’s been very receptive for me, because I’m a big advocate for Latino issues. So he’s been a big listener and he’s done a lot of coalitions and a lot of roundtables regarding what we want changed.”

Kimmel asked, “When you say he’s a big listener are you making fun of his ears?” “No!” “He keeps getting beaten up lately because there’s such an extremist movement happening. And it’s very dangerous because it’s not the character of America. It’s really under attack. And he’s been governing under a state of emergency since the time he went into office. So we haven’t seen him do what he can do.”

From there, Jimmy mistakenly asked Eva, “This is the last season of ‘Dancing with the Stars.’ Why is that?” to which she replied, “I’m not on ‘Dancing with the Stars!” Kimmel quickly recovered, corrected himself, and asked Ms. Longoria about her final months working on “Desperate Housewives.”

50/50 Stars Glam Up NYC Premiere


It’s one of the most anticipated films of the fall season, and last night (September 26) “50/50” made its New York City Premiere.

Stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Anna Kendrick, and Seth Rogen all came out for the swanky shindig, ahead of the film’s September 30th release.

During a recent interview, Ms. Kendrick discussed her reasons for taking the role of the somewhat-incompetent therapist in the movie.

“I should say the role was offered to me over Christmas 2009. I then met with (director) Jonathan Levine, and I just got really excited about the character. At a certain point, I was confused because someone had told me my character was based on a real person and that my dad (in the movie) was a therapist, so I was just a therapist because I thought that I had to be one.”

“Then, I found out that wasn’t the case and we just got to build her from the ground up, which was great. I was mostly really excited about doing it because of Will Reiser’s writing, plus the kind of unexpected humor in really honest situations. It wasn’t a cancer movie with dark jokes about cancer. It was just a movie that showed things really honestly, particularly how things could be perversely funny in this situation.”

“I liked how vulnerable Katherine was: how thin her facade of confidence was, her kind of softness and vulnerability just at the edge of this confidence. That was really sweet and really exciting because I had just been promoting “Up In The Air,” where I played a really strong character. It was just exciting to play someone who was a little more lost, who was really sympathetic or empathetic, I suppose, and who just wanted to help people but was going about it in all the wrong ways.”

Leighton Meester's Season 5 Premiere Eve Shopping Spree


On what was a very special day for the family, Will Smith was out alongside daughter Willow at the local Barnes and Noble in Los Angeles, CA on Sunday (September 25).

The father/daughter duo lovingly held hands upon exiting the chain bookstore, with the special occasion happening to be the fact that Will was ringing in his 43rd birthday.

Meanwhile, a recent report from MTV tells that 10-year-old Willow is nearing completion of her much-awaited Roc Nation debut album.

The news stems from a Mixtape Daily interview with Ronald "Jukebox" Jackson, who said, "I did like eight, nine songs on Willow, so right now, we're in the process of just trying to close out the album. It's just the whole process. You got to think about it: She's a 10-year old girl. She's gotta have a life, she's gotta be a kid."

Continuing to describe what fans can expect, Jackson revealed, "Willow is kind of a combination of what 'Whip My Hair' was. Willow just isn't a pop star, she isn't just an urban artist; she's very international. A lot of her music has a very big influence of everything from rock to pop to hip-hop."

As for what he hopes for as far as the next song released by Miss Smith, Jukebox told, "Next single which I'm praying for is a record I did called 'Rock Star.' ... She's been performing it everywhere. It's getting very great reaction. We also did a record with Diggy Simmons that's incredible. ... She's just a combination of everything pretty much."

And it’s a tragedy for his little daughter. Not knowing my father always made me feel like a piece of myself was missing or unknown. Not reachable.
