Let's call it "Occupy Twilight." The photos from the Los Angeles premiere of "Breaking Dawn" recall the community solidarity -- and tents! -- of Occupy Wall Street, minus the important cause. And the protesting. And drum circles.

Charlize Theron, who co-stars as the Evil Queen alongside Kristen Stewart in "Snow White and the Huntsman," praises the brood-y "Twilight" star in an interview with Vogue:

There's this really lovely quality about her that just doesn't give a (bleep). A lot of people say they don't, but then they go home and cry and pop a Xanax. Kristen actually doesn't give a (bleep). That's what's so refreshing about her. I'm looking forward to killing her and taking her beauty. That's what happens, right?

[Theron then laughs an evil laugh that reverberates throughout the fabled land of Hollywood.]

Emma Stone is one of our favorite famouses, and she did not disappoint on "Saturday Night Live." One of the best skits from Stone's episode is also the most cringe-worthy: it involves officeworkers, ice cream, and a certain epically heartbreaking Adele song:

Sidenote; We love the cut to Chris Martin backstage. (In a recent interview, he admitted feeling jealous he didn't write "Someone Like You." Maybe those tears were real.)

Shayne Lamas, whose claim to fame is winning "The Bachelor" in 2008, gave birth to her first child -- a baby girl -- on 11-11-11, announcing: "I feel blessed today. Press Dahl Lamas-Richie is the coolest baby in the history of female kind. She doesn't even cry and she has the prettiest eyelashes."

Chelsea Lauren/WireImageOnce a Jesse James, always a Jesse James. The serial cheater's ex, Kat Von D, is taking the so-called high road while blasting his bad behavior to the world on her Facebook page:

Never have I felt so strong about True Love, than I do today.  I believe in Love more than anything else, and more than ever before. Today I encountered the 19th girl to add to the list of people Jesse cheated on me with during this last year. I kept going back and forth in my mind as to what the best way would be for me to release and let go of any residual feelings remaining from that toxic relationship.  All of this may sound petty or immature to some, but I assure you this is coming from a place of pure honesty and love.

Nineteen women?! Then again, should we be all that surprised?

Back to his shaggy ways. (Jun Sato/WireImage)A possible explanation for the troubling return of Brad Pitt's facial scruff: He is depressed. Unhappy. In a funk.

"I think happiness is overrated, truthfully," he tells Australia's "60 Minutes." "I do. I think sometimes you're happy, sometimes you're not. There's too much pressure to be happy. I don't know. I don't really give a (bleep). I know I will be at times and I know I won't be at times. Satisfied, at peace, those would be more goals for myself."

Paul Archuleta/FilmMagicSee this dapper gent? His name is Casper Smart, and he's reportedly hooking up with Jennifer Lopez. Also, he's a backup dancer on her tour.

A source tells People.com, "Yes, they are dating and having a good time. They've been getting more open with their flirting for weeks."

"She seemed to me to be so humble and honest ... Very cool," Timberlake wrote afterward on his website (via People.com). "She also simultaneously seemed like she was nervous about the whole evening and if I was going to enjoy myself. 'Are you ok?' she asked 2 or 3 times. "I hope you are having fun. I know you will once my crew of friends get here to the table.' "
