The Cannes jury member stunned in an ivory lace Valentino Haute Couture gown at the "Nebraska" premiere at the Cannes Film Festival on Thursday, but we couldn't help but get a case of déjà vu. That's because Kidman's gown looks strikingly similar to the Anne Hathaway was originally supposed to wear to this year's Academy Awards. Remember all that drama? If not, let us give you a refresher.

Jaden Smith and Selena Gomez in London on 5/23 (PacificCoastNews)Best friend knows best?

Selena Gomez was spotted having dinner with Justin Bieber’s BFF Jaden Smith in London on Thursday night. The pair dined at the Chinese restaurant Hakkasan, and were photographed making a not-so-low-key exit together following their meal.

Gomez, 20, rocked a black jacket and sheer black dress, as she tried to hide her face while exiting the trendy eatery with Smith, 14. How cute that he was trying to shield the "Spring Breakers" actress from the cameras?

Carrie Underwood performs 'Blown Away' at the Grammys (Getty Images)Carrie Underwood is another Hollywood star that puts her money where her mouth is.

The Grammy winner announced she's donating $1 million in proceeds from her recent Blown Away Tour to the Red Cross for tornado relief efforts, the AP reports.

"I have watched the devastation in my home state of Oklahoma over the past several days with great sadness," Underwood said in a statement. "With the help of my fans who attended my concerts over the past year, we can offer the Red Cross a little extra help in comforting those affected by the recent tornados."

Update: Morgan Freeman issued this pretty awesome statement: "I wasn't actually sleeping. I'm a beta tester for Google Eyelids. I was merely updating my Facebook page."

Well, that's certainly one way to party crash!

A Psy impostor has been hobnobbing around the French Riviera at the Cannes Film Festival this week, tricking partygoers and organizers into thinking he's the real Korean popstar and gaining access to many of the A-List parties.

An onlooker at the famed Torch Beach Club on Wednesday told the New York Post, "He had three security standing with him at all times, surrounding the table in suits and earpieces ... Scamming free drinks and bottle service, including bottles of Cristal Rose."

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West (WireImage)Will Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's baby be getting a gift from the Carter's?

Extravagant invites for Kardashian's baby shower were recently sent out, and TMZ obtained a photo of the music box invitation, in which a ballerina is spinning to a lullaby version of West's song "Hey Mama." The ballad was later dedicated to West's mother, Donda West, who died suddenly in 2007.

Celebrities can tweet condolences all they want, but Blake Shelton is putting his money (and his guitar) where his mouth is when it comes to those affected by the Oklahoma tornado.

"The Voice" judge opened Tuesday night's show by performing an acoustic version of "Over You" alongside wife Miranda Lambert while donation information for The Red Cross was presented on screen.

Shelton grew up about 75 miles south of where the tornado struck in Moore, Oklahoma, on May 20, and the couple currently lives about 100 miles away from Moore.

It's very likely that Shelton will recruit a slew of high-powered performers for his benefit concert. "I can call in some pretty big favors," Shelton said. "The Voice" judges, both ex and current,
