- Jane Fonda Might Be the Hottest Person at Cannes
Age is just a number when it comes to Jane Fonda. The 75-year-old fitness guru, actress, and philanthropist has been looking better than ever at the Cannes Film Festival this year, rocking every gown on the red carpet and schooling the much younger leading ladies on how to really work it. On Saturday, she dazzled in a custom turquoise Atelier Versace ensemble with Swarovski crystal detailing and cut-outs — yes, a 75-year-old woman actually pulled off the cut-out trend better than most 20-somethings! — at the "Jimmy P" premiere. Furthering our awe, she showed up to the premiere of "Inside Llewyn Davis" on Sunday glowing in a jaw-dropping raspberry Badgley Mischka dress. Check out the video to find out how she always manages to look so good and be sure to tune in to “omg! Insider” on TV tonight for more of the latest in entertainment news. Continue reading →

- Christian Bale Is Barely Recognizable With New Bald ‘Do
Christian Bale debuted a dramatic new 'do on Sunday when he arrived at Los Angeles International Airport from New York with his wife, Sibi Blazic, and their 8-year-old daughter, Emmeline. The 39-year-old actor sported a casual ensemble of green cargo pants, a black button-down shirt, and sunglasses. But it was his bald head and reddish beard that had us doing double takes. Christian's bare-headed look is a serious departure from the super-sexy Bruce Wayne we all know and love! The Hollywood hunk is notorious for dramatically altering his appearance for movie roles, so we have to wonder if his bald 'do is correlated with his most recent role in the David O'Russell-directed drama "American Hustle." "The Dark Knight Rises" actor has been photographed rocking a major make under complete with a bad comb-over while filming the flick in New York. But this recent look isn't the only mega-transformation Bale's undergone for a major movie role. Check out the vid to see Christian's newest 'do and to see what other drastic physical changes he has made for a role in the past! Continue reading →
