Yesterday Will Smith was spotted at the 'Good Morning America' Studios, where he was promoting his new movie Seven Pounds.
The movie isn't getting the best reviews so far. To quote Film.com: 'don't see it if you like clear, logical and interesting stores.' On the upside, Rosario Dawson is in it and the chemistry between her and Will is supposedly 'excellent'.'
And if all else fails, Will's stardom should bring in plenty of moviegoers. Especially if some of the folks who waited for him outside the GMA studios yesterday hit the box office. Check out Will enthusiastically sign autographs for his adoring fans:
In other Willie news, the actor is being called a closet Scientologist again, after Fox News revealed that he gave $122,500 to the Church of Scientology by donating to various charity funds. Will's justification for this and teaching Scientology concepts to kids is that he's simply open to all religions. 'You can take different parts of things you like and put them all together,' he said.
To support this excuse is the fact that he gave $400,000 to Christian organizations in 2007. But then again, a lot can change in a year, can't it?
Here's Eva Longoria getting in a good laugh yesterday as a paparazzo falls over trying to film her.
Plumber cracks aside though, Eva isn't LOLing at the fall of the entertainment industry. The actress is one of 130 actors pleading with SAG leaders to call off a strike next month, arguing that it would cripple the upcoming awards season.
'We support our union and we support the issues we
are fighting for, but we do not believe now is the time to be putting
people out of work,' their letter reads.
In the meantime, Eva is focusing on merrier things, like shopping! Click any image to enjoy more photos of the Desperate star shopping in L.A. yesterday.
Here's Ashton Kutcher speeding away from the Geisha House last night after dining with Demi Moore and then pulling off a sneaky back door exit.
As slick as Ashton is slick at plotting escape routes though, his stategizing could use some fine tuning in other areas.
The actor has been putting his childhood football skills to work by coaching a high school team here in L.A. But his ambitious attempt at giving back to the community seems to have backfired. Star Magazine reports:
'Coach of the year? Not quite. Ashton Kutcher has been having a ball as
assistant coach to North Hollywood's Harvard-Westlake School freshman
footballers. But the feeling isn't mutual. The kids want him gone,"
says an insider. "They think he doesn't know what he's talking about
and can't stand his tough-guy attitude." Out of the huddle, the kids
mock their famous coach and have even given him a special nickname:
Ashton Doucher!'
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a tough-guy attitude kind of necessary in football??
Courteney Cox premiered her latest comedy flick, Bedtime Stories, at the El Capitan Theater in Hollywood last night.
The movie's about a poor guy who tells his niece luxurious bedtime stories and - surprise: they magically
come true. If only it were that simple in real life, man. I'd totally pick up a new storytelling hobby.
As usual, Courteney looked polished and pretty - wearing an understated navy dress, black clutch and pearl necklace. And can I just say how refreshing it is to see someone in Hollywood lay off the ridiculous spray tan and embrace her paleness for a change?? Now if only Katie Price and her tanorexic folk will get a clue.
Also at the premiere: doll-like beauty Keri Russell, Aisha Tyler, Teresa Palmer, goofy Adam Sandler, hot nerd Guy Pearce, British eccentric Russell Brand, and So You Think You Can Dance judge-turned-director Adam Shankman. Click any image to enjoy the gallery of 25+ photos.
Ryan Gosling and Kelly Osbourne looked like two peas in a pod when they decked themselves out in festive red button-ups this week.
But while they each get a thumbs up for 'Holiday Cheer,' their fashion savvy is a bit more questionable.
Now, my crush on Ryan Gosling is pretty anchored in the conviction
that he's not just easy on the eyes, but smart, talented and unaffected by the common head-stuck-up-ass syndrome.
Having said that, his outfit when spotted at Cafe Sole today is rrrrreally pushing my limits.
Kelly's hipster-inspired nightgown blouse was slightly more forgivable when she hit up Club Bardot like Kristen Dunst and Lindsay Lohan. But just barely.
