  • Fashion Faceoff: Khloe vs. Jessica

    Two Hollywood hotties -- reality star Khloe Kardashian and film actress Jessica Alba -- both chose a long, flowing Alexander McQueen gown for red carpet events three and a half years apart. Khloe wore soft gray, while Jessica chose an emerald green hue. Question is ... who wore it better?

    Khloe Kardashian donned the strapless Alexander McQueen creation for the People's Choice Awards in Los Angeles a few weeks back, sparking speculation that the loose gown was hiding a baby bump. The "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star accessorized with Amrapali earrings, a Judith Leiber clutch, and freshly-dyed red locks, which barely lasted a week before she reverted to her natural brunette hue.

    Waaay back in June 2007, Jessica Alba sported a green version of the same gown at the Mexico City premiere of her film, "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer." Alba paired her dress with chandelier earrings and a glamorous updo.

    So this McQueen number has had quite a workout on the red carpet over

  • Kristin Cavallari Takes Her QB to the Mall

    Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler go shopping at The Grove in L.A. - Deano/Splash NewsJust days after his NFL team, the Chicago Bears, suffered a defeat at the hands of the Green Bay Packers in the Super Bowl playoffs, the team's much maligned starting quarterback, Jay Cutler, was spotted hanging out at The Grove in Los Angeles with his girlfriend, former "Hills" starlet Kristin Cavallari on Wednesday.

    While celebrating her 24th birthday in Las Vegas on January 15, Cavallari gushed to People.com about Cutler, "I'm in love," and though Cutler couldn't be there in person -- his team was playing the Seattle Seahawks the next day -- he sent his girl flowers that night. "Things are really good," Cavallari told People, adding, "I'm just enjoying my personal life and taking a little time away from the public eye, which is why Chicago is great for me. My mom and that whole side of the family is there. And Jay is there. It's nice to be able to hang out with my mom, and, you know, I'm in love and it's been great."

    Enjoying a break from chilly Chicago now that Cutler's season is

  • Vanessa Hudgens Is a Candie’s Girl!

    Candie's

    Following in the footsteps of former Candie's alums Britney Spears and Fergie, "High School Musical" star Vanessa Hudgens was unveiled Wednesday as the new face of the junior brand's spring campaign. "Ever since I saw Fergie do the ads for Candie's, I fell in love," Hudgens said in a press release. "It's such an honor to be a Candie's girl."

    Hudgens' fun campaign, which features shots of the actress sunning herself in a cute swimsuit and hanging out at an old-school diner, was shot by fashion photographer Tony Duran, and will appear in magazines and on billboards from March 2011.

    Zac Efron's maybe-girlfriend sounded like she had a ball at the shoot: "We had a blast shooting the campaign, one of my favorite sets was using the diner countertop as a runway, it's definitely not every day I get to do that."

  • Kelsey and Jude’s Film Set Fun

    Kelsey Grammer and his son Jude on set. - Darla Khazei/PacificCoastNews.comTaking a break from his off-screen dramas, Kelsey Grammer was spotted actually doing his day job Tuesday. The "Frasier" star was on location in New York filming scenes for his new comedy, "I Don't Know How She Does It," with Sarah Jessica Parker. On the sidelines sporting headphones to hear his dad's dialogue was Grammer's cute 6-year-old son Jude Gordon.

    Grammer has been dominating the headlines recently due to his ugly split with "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Camille Grammer. The two -- who also have a 9-year-old daughter Mason -- are currently embroiled in a messy public divorce, and to make matters just that much more intense, the 55-year-old actor has plans to marry his new fiancee Kayte Walsh next month.

    A Los Angeles judge granted Camille's request Wednesday to delay divorce proceedings so her lawyers can have more time to review pension information pertaining to the couple's estate, which could put the actor's plans for a quickie wedding in jeopardy.

  • Hugh and Ava’s Icy School Run

    Hugh Jackman helped his adorable daughter Ava navigate some icy patches on the Manhattan sidewalks Monday as they made their way home from school through the snowy New York streets. Hugh was dressed down in a bulky ski jacket, jeans, and a beanie, while his adorable 5-year-old daughter sported a hooded jacket, striped gloves, and cute snow boots adorned with peace signs.

    Rumor has it that Willow Smith is in talks to star in a big-screen remake of "Annie" -- and that Jackman is in the running to play Annie's billionaire guardian Daddy Warbucks. With his Broadway background, I think Hugh would be perfect for the role, though I'm wondering how attractive he'll look if he has to shave his head for the part!

    Though neither Liam Hemsworth nor his big brother Chris had a film to promote at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival, the fun-loving Aussie brothers have clearly been enjoying themselves at the star-studded wintry 10-day long event.

    Taking advantage of all the activities available during their first trip to the festival, Liam, 21, and Chris, 27, hit up the Oakley Learn to Ride Fueled by Muscle Milk and Lounge to stock up on snowboarding gear before heading to the slopes for a free boarding lesson.

    Later in the day, the "Last Song" star -- and former boyfriend of Miley Cyrus -- joined Chris and his new wife Elsa Pataky at the Samsung Galaxy Tab Lift, where they checked out the new technology on offer ... and picked up some more free stuff.

  • Matthew’s Beach Babies

    Matthew and Vida hang out at the beach in Malibu, California. - Splash NewsVida and Levi splash around in their diapers. Fun! - Splash News

    Giving mom Camila Alves the day off, Matthew McConaughey was on daddy duty Sunday when he took his kids Levi, 2, and Vida, 1, to the beach in Malibu, California. Along with the family's dogs, McConaughey, who was sporting a bare chest, a pair of Nike running shorts, and a j.k. livin beanie, took his diaper-wearing toddlers for a dip in the wintery Pacific Ocean. Brrr!

    The 41-year-old "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past" star also indulged in some sandcastle building with his kids before dropping them off at home and heading back to the beach for a workout.

    But it's not all fun and games for Daddy Matt. The actor has a new film, "The Lincoln Lawyer," hitting screens on March 18. The drama, which also stars Marisa Tomei, Josh Lucas, and Ryan Phillippe, centers around a lawyer (McConaughey) who conducts business from the back of his Lincoln Town Car while representing high-profile clients including Louis Roulet (Phillippe), a Beverly Hills playboy accused of attempted murder.

  • Stars Step Out of Character

    Sometimes stars become so entwined with their characters that it's a shock to see them on the red carpet or out on the street sporting their own style. Elle magazine showcases four of the small screen's most charismatic stars -- "True Blood's" Anna Paquin, "The Vampire Diaries'" Nina Dobrev, "Mad Men's" Elisabeth Moss, and "Boardwalk Empire's" Paz de la Huerta -- as they break out of character and express their own sense of style in some of spring's sexiest pieces.

    Anna Paquin: "True Blood" Age: 28 Sookie style: “Once you’ve been spray-tanned, bleached, and given the correct push-up bra, it’s like playing dress-up—it’s liberating.” As for those sex scenes: “When it’s someone you get naked with in your private life, there’s no awkwardness” -- she married costar Stephen Moyer last summer -- “You’ve done a great deal of that stuff -- minus the blood-drinking -- in real life.” Anna wears: Max Mara denim shirt, Dolce & Gabbana cotton pencil skirt. - Daniel King/Elle 

    Nina Dobrev: "The Vampire Diaries" Age: 22 Historical drama: “Wearing a corset kicks the wind out of you -- I almost passed out once wearing it for 16 hours.” Better than movies? “Working on TV, you have this one character, and you have time to explore her, create her, see her develop into different people.” Nina wears: Sportmax cotton sweater, Valentino raffia jacket with leather ruffle and shorts, Balenciaga by Nicolas Ghesquiere leather boots. - Daniel King/Elle

    Elisabeth Moss: "Mad Men" Age: 28 Credits: "The West Wing’s" first daughter, "Get Him to the Greek’s" straight woman (she’s acted since age six). Favorite line ever: “Don asks Peggy if she regrets giving up her baby, and she just says, ‘Playgrounds.’ It’s so subtle, but conveys so much.” Elisabeth wears: Gucci jade silk and violet duchesse cotton dress, and a Gucci laminated python belt with tassels. - Daniel King/Elle

    Paz de la Huerta: "Boardwalk Empire" Age: 26 Provenance: New York City; the accent comes from vacationing in Seville, Spain, where her father lives. On her frequent nude scenes: “It wouldn’t be an issue on a European show. I have no qualms about being nude ... but it’s important people surpass that I’m naked and pay attention to the performance.” Paz wears: Yves Saint Laurent silk chiffon blouse and halterdress. Prada sombrero, Miu Miu multi-buckle pumps. - Daniel King/Elle

  • Sandra and Louis Take Manhattan

    Sandra Bullock and her son Louis Bardo head out in NYC. - INFphoto.com Sandra Bullock stepped out with her bundled-up cutie Louis Bardo in New York Thursday, and it turns out the pair -- who primarily base themselves in Austin and New Orleans -- aren't just in the Big Apple for the weather. Sandy is in town to film her first project since becoming mom to her "little Cajun Cookie" who turns 1 this month.

    The Oscar winner has just commenced production on a drama titled "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close," which co-stars fellow Academy Award alum Tom Hanks and John Goodman, and centers around a 9-year-old kid who searches all over New York for the lock that matches a mysterious key left by his father when he was killed in the September 11 attacks.

    Currently single, Bullock jokingly shot down rumors that she was dating her "Proposal" co-star Ryan Reynolds in a Golden Globes red carpet interview with the "Today" show's Al Roker. "I think there will be a collective sigh amongst women across the United States when I say, 'He's not my lover,'" she told

  • Fashion Faceoff: Kate B. vs. Kim K.

    Oh ladies, we've got a doozy on our hands this time! Two gorgeous brunettes -- Kate Beckinsale and Kim Kardashian -- each strutted their stuff in the same Nina Ricci gown on red carpets on opposite sides of the globe. Question is ... did the actress or the reality star wear it better?

    Last May, Kate Beckinsale donned the fabulous, ruffled Nina Ricci number for the Cannes Film Festival's Palme d'Or Award Closing Ceremony. The "Whiteout" star paired her silk gown with diamond chandelier earrings, a diamond bracelet, and soft, wavy tresses.

    Just last week, Faceoff repeat offender Kim Kardashian rocked the same strapless Fall 2010 frock at InStyle and Warner Bros. Golden Globes post-awards bash. The "Kourtney and Kim Take New York" starlet accessorized with metallic disc earrings, a chunky statement ring, and a sleek updo.

    This is a tough decision as both ladies look hot. Kardashian always cleans up well, the dress accentuates her curves, and her red lips add just the right pop of
