    It was an Affleck family fun day on Thursday when Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, Ben's younger brother Casey, and his wife Summer Phoenix, met up at the Huntington Library in Pasadena, California, for a relaxing afternoon of fun with their kids. Also along for the ride were the doting Affleck grandparents.

    The adults took it easy, catching up on news and hanging out in the shade, while the little ones -- Violet and Seraphina Affleck, and Atticus and Indiana Phoenix-Affleck -- played in the Children's Garden.

    The brothers Affleck were also seen indulging in a bit of horseplay, jokingly shoving each other around. Boys will be boys ... it's amusing to know that at 38 and 35 respectively, they can still behave like teenagers.

    The show of family solidarity is an intriguing one, as Ben has his new directorial effort, "The Town," starring Blake Lively, Jon Hamm and himself to promote -- the film hits screens September 17 -- while "Ocean's Eleven" actor Casey is currently embroiled in a

  • Kendall Jenner Rocks Short Shorts

    Kendall models short shorts for Lucca Couture. - Lucca CoutureIt's pretty hard to get any attention in the Kardashian/Jenner clan if you're not Kim, Kourtney, or Khloe, but their half-sister Kendall is really starting to make a name for herself -- not as yet another reality starlet, but as a bona fide model.

    Yes, it's true that the famed Kardashian sisters' younger sibling is getting way more recognition for her work than most teens modeling the same outfits would, but, she looks the part, and it seems she's got a future in the industry.

    Kendall's sister Khloe is one of her biggest supporters, posting shots from her latest Lucca Couture photo shoot on her website, along with the shout out: "My baby sister is a rock star!! She looks to die for!!!! So gorgeous." On her website, Khloe added, "This is the real deal now, she truly is a model!! I'm so proud of her :)"

    The 14-year-old -- who will turn 15 in November -- knows she has to work hard if her parents are going to continue to allow her to model. Her dad Bruce Jenner recently shared with

  • Kendra’s Fab Post-Baby Bod

    What better way to celebrate a workout than with a cocktail? That's the very European idea behind Svedka Vodka's Barton BotCamp in New York City. The Swedish vodka giant teamed up with the David Barton Gym chain to host happy hours following intense boot camp training sessions.

    After enduring a rigorous workout, customers can reward themselves with delicious concoctions made from ingredients including clementine-flavored vodka, orange juice, sour mix, and fresh mint. Now, doesn't that sound better than a protein shake and a banana?

    Kendra Wilkinson, who has been very forthcoming about her struggles to regain her pre-baby figure after the birth of her son Hank Jr. last December, hit up the cocktail class last weekend, where she showed off her fab, fit figure.

    The reality starlet recently shared some of her tricks with Us Weekly for getting back into shape: "I do a lot of cardio. That's the No.1 thing for burning fat," adding, "I work on toning my arms and legs and do tons of

  • The Kardashians Debut K-Dash

    The Kardashians are expanding again! No, they're not adding more husbands, babies, or step-whatevers -- the clan is launching a new fashion line in partnership with QVC and designer Ginny Hilfiger called K-Dash by Kardashian.

    The collection, which is primarily designed by Hilfiger with input from the Kardashians, includes dresses, jackets, handbags, belts, leggings, and more. Better yet is the fact that it's pretty budget-friendly, with prices ranging from $20 to $240.

    And that's not all! The multi-tasking reality starlet is also launching her own jewelry line -- Kim Kardashian's Belle Noel by

  • Kelis Shows Her Spots

    After headlining at the Manchester Pride 2010 festival in England on Sunday, Kelis was spotted Wednesday wheeling her 1-year-old son Knight Jones in a bright yellow baby buggy through London's Heathrow airport on their way back to the States.

    Kelis flaunted her passion for leopard print -- the "Milkshake" singer was sporting it from head to toe! -- and it appears she's passed her love of the wild animal design on to her son, too. The little tyke, whose dad is rapper Nas (aka Nasir Jones) -- Kelis split from him just before Knight was born -- sported funky shoes just like his famous mom's.

    Promoting her new album Fleshtone in the UK, Kelis won rave reviews for her performance at the Manchester Pride festival. The Manchester Evening News proclaimed, "From the opening strains of 'Scream,' and strutting onto stage in a fierce leather jacket, [Kelis] knew she had us all in the palm of her hand." The newspaper also noted that the R&B star wore a "gold tribal print catsuit" during her

  • The Sexy Stars of ‘Mad Men’

    The cast of "Mad Men" smolder on the cover of Rolling Stone. - Robert Trachtenberg/RollingStone.comAfter picking up its third consecutive Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama, we're really hoping that "Mad Men" will finally find an audience with mainstream America. It's a double-edged sword though, as a large part of "Men's" zeitgeist appeal is its cult status as a throwback, slow-burn drama that doesn't spell out every single plot point 17 times, just in case you missed it the first 16.  

    Now household names, the cast was virtually unknown before landing their big break on the 1960s-era show. Jon Hamm, who stars as Don Draper, had a bit part in "We Were Soldiers," January Jones played Stifler's love interest in the third "American Pie" film, and office bombshell Christina Hendricks starred in a video for the 1990s rock band Everclear. Elisabeth Moss, who portrays career girl Peggy Olsen, comments in the photo feature, "Matt [Weiner, the show's creator] always says that he basically hired a bunch of not-famous people, but people that had been working for a really long time."

  • Lindsay Admits: ‘I Was Irresponsible’

    Lindsay Lohan graces the October cover of Vanity Fair. - Norman Jean Roy/Vanity FairIn an interview conducted with Vanity Fair just one week before her court-ordered stints in jail and rehab, Lindsay Lohan admits that she has made mistakes in the past, and that she's now focused and ready to get back to work. The feature also touches on the curious, little-known fact that Lohan reportedly cooperates with the paparazzi in return for kick-backs.

    Did you ever wonder just how the paps manage to document every random moment of Lindsay Lohan's life? As well as the easy-to-come-by shots you see of the "Machete" actress out partying in Hollywood, the general public is also treated to a daily diet of Lohan shopping with her sister, partying on the beach with friends, or doing any number of other mundane activities. Turns out at least some of these "exclusive" moments are staged in exchange for serious monetary incentives for the struggling actress, whose film career has been patchy at best for the better part of the last five years.

    Vanity Fair interviewed several paparazzi,

  • Gwen’s Little Surfer Dudes

    Taking time out from her busy schedule -- she's juggling commitments to her band No Doubt, launching a new Harajuku Lovers' fragrance, and getting ready to show her L.A.M.B. spring 2011 collection at New York Fashion Week on September 16 -- Gwen Stefani still found time to hit Newport Beach for some fun in the sun with her beautiful boys on Sunday in Orange County, California.

    While Gwen covered up in ripped boyfriend jeans, a "Too Much, Too Young" T-shirt, and trendy fedora hat, her boys Kingston, 4, and Zuma, 2, roamed around in adorable matching multi-colored board shorts. Zuma showed his flair for fashion with a hat just like his mom's! Also along for the family fun day was Gwen's dad Dennis, who was on hand to help the blond singer wrangle her boys.

    If you're a big fan of Gwen's fragrances, you better get in line at Fashion's Night Out on September 10 to score a bottle of her new perfume collection, Wicked Style. The scents will be available in limited supply at the FNO event

  • Mickey Rourke’s Close Shave

    Do you remember how hot Mickey Rourke was in the 1986 hit "9 1/2 Weeks"? OK, I know it was 24 years ago, but you can still order it on Netflix (it's probably in the classics section by now). If you haven't had the pleasure of seeing Rourke and Kim Basinger heat up the screen, take my word for it -- the man was gorgeous.

    Anyway, after making a name for himself as one of Hollywood's most handsome leading men in the 1980s, the eccentric actor stepped off the deep end -- both career-wise and looks-wise in 1991 when he decided to become a professional boxer. In doing so, he managed to successfully bust up his face, removing almost all traces of the good looks he was born with.

    What followed was a serious of random occasional film roles, even more random hairstyles, and outfits that involved a lot of snakeskin, armadillo, and other scaly desert creatures. By the time he made his Oscar-nominated comeback in the 2008 indie "The Wrestler," Rourke was sporting seriously ugly, greasy streaked

  • Nicole Richie Goes Back to Blond

    So long, dark side! After spending most of 2010 sporting long brunette locks, Nicole Richie has returned to being a blonde. In a post on her blog entitled "Makeover Madness!", Richie posed for a self-portrait modeling her new honey-colored blunt bob.

    Nicole sported brunette locks earlier this year. - Jim Spellman/WireImage.comRichie debuts her new shorter blond look. - nicolerichie.celebuzz.com

    "Last night we played 'Clueless.' Andy and George played Cher & Dionne, and I played Tai. 'aaahhh!! project!'", wrote the 28-year-old, referring to the character played by the late Brittany Murphy in the hit 1995 film.

    No stranger to changing up her tresses, Richie has tried out dreadlocks, multi-colored streaks, and various combinations of bangs, bobs, and boho styles over the years. Back in December 2009, when she first debuted her brunette look, the House of Harlow 1960 designer joked, "I feel smarter already."

    Does that mean she's now returning to the "simple" life?
