Here’s Kevin Bacon right before he broke into his “Footloose” routine. Everybody cut loose, don’t ya know.

Not loving the dress, Ms. Banks. Not at all.

If loving Angela Bassett is wrong, I don’t want to be right.

Kate Beckinsale is all kinds of awesome in this dress.

Has there ever been a time when Penelope Cruz didn’t look stunning?

Laura Dern looking super.

Clint Eastwood just never stops looking good. The man is what, 80, now?

Believe it or not, I’ve never seen Dakota Fanning in anything. Weird, I know.

Richard Gere is a Silver Fox(y).

Anne Hathaway is not looking her best in this asymmetrical cocktail dress. She needs some color!

No matter what, Diane Lane always manages to look classy.

Eva Longoria looks like she should be handing out placecards on a cruise ship in this outfit.

Brad and Angie look good as always.

But I like this picture better.

You know what I think of when I see Mickey Rourke? UNCLEAN! UNCLEAN!

That’s quite enough, Sarah Silverman.

I think Ben Stiller has been dipping into wife Christine Taylor’s emergency Botox supply.

KRISTIN SCOTT THOMAS! Where have you been, woman?

Phew! Lots of images. Now let’s move on to the videos!

First, Anne Hathaway spoke to ET’s Thea Andrews about playing a different type of role in ‘Rachel Getting Married,’ but she lost her train of thought when she saw another Hollywood star.

Nicole Kidman says that she really is not proud of her performance in “Australia”, a movie she made with fellow Aussie Hugh Jackman. Here’s what she had to say:

I can’t look at this movie and be proud of what I’ve done.

‘I sat there and I looked at Keith and went “Am I any good in this movie?”

‘But I thought Brandon Walters (an 11-year-old Aboriginal boy) and Hugh Jackman were wonderful.

‘It’s just impossible for me to connect to it emotionally at all.’

I haven’t seen this movie so I can’t really voice an opinion, but is she really as bad as she says she is?

You would think by now that Madonna would be thinking about aging gracefully, with a little dignity, rather than making a complete fool of herself chasing after eternal youth. Well, you would be wrong! Madge is going on what’s being called a “salmon retox“; basically, she’s going to be eating truckloads of fish and actually increasing her exercise regimen.

Note to Madonna: Look, we get it. You’re physically fit. Freakishly so, in fact. We don’t enjoy being able to see every muscle in your exquisitely toned body, especially when you wear outfits like the one above. You might want to check into the old adage of “less is more”, know what I mean? Lay off the hours of exercise already and go read a book or play with your kids or SOMETHING. Seriously.

The Travolta family will be having a private funeral for their son Jett today at their $8 million dollar estate in central Florida. The paparazzi have already staked the place out apparently - how trashy can you get, seriously. My thoughts are with them as they lay their son to rest.

Aww, how cute! Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck welcomed another baby girl to the world last night. Mom and baby are both doing just fine; no word on the baby’s name just yet, but expect more cuteness and general smooshiness, that’s for sure.

We’re pretty much over this whole thing with Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and Jennifer Aniston, right? At least the public is, I think. Which is why I think it’s so weird that the parties involved keep bringing it up in ever interview. It was like four years ago, people! We get it!

Anyway, in the newest issue of “W”, Brad decided to talk about this whole thing YET AGAIN. Here’s what he had to say:

On the public’s misinterpretation of his and Jolie’s “affair”… “What people don’t understand is that we filmed [Mr. & Mrs. Smith] for a year. We were still filming after Jen and I split up. Even then it doesn’t mean that there was some kind of dastardly affair. There wasn’t. I’m very proud of the way that it was handled. It was respectful. [The film] will mean something to our kids. It will, that’s all.”

On Aniston’s recent comment that it was “uncool” for Jolie to openly state that she and Pitt fell in love on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith… “Listen, man, Jen is a sweetheart. I think she got dragged into that one, and then there’s a second round to all of that Angie versus Jen. It’s so created.”

On his current relationship with Aniston… “We still check in with each other. She was a big part of my life, and me hers. I don’t see how there cannot be [that]. That’s life, man. That’s life.”

Honestly, I like him and Angelina together, I think they’re good for each other, and I think Jennifer Aniston should stick to TV and stop thinking she’s a “serious” actress. End. Done. I’ve thought about it and counted to three!

I’ve got a few updates on the tragic death of Jett Travolta, the oldest child of John Travolta and Kelly Preston.

First, there was an autopsy, and the cause of death was found to be seizure disorder. Parents John and Kelly have returned to Florida with Jett’s ashes; no word on a funeral yet.

Secondly, here’s the official statement from the Travolta family:

We would like to extend our deepest and most heartfelt thanks to everyone who has sent their love and condolences.

Jett was the most wonderful son that two parents could ever ask for and lit up the lives of everyone he encountered. We are heartbroken that our time with him was so brief. We will cherish the time we had with him for the rest of our lives. We have received many messages of condolence from around the world and we want to thank everyone for their prayers and support. It has meant so much to us. It is a beautiful reminder of the inherent goodness in the human spirit that gives us ahope for a brighter future.

With love,
John, Kelly and Ella

I can hardly think about this without getting all teary-eyed. What a horrible tragedy!

There are some things that you just don’t want to hear coming out of the mouths of your favorite celebs, and right there at the top of the list would be advice on how to poop better. Yet, Gwyneth Paltrow has decided to bust through this barrier with her latest diatribe over at her nutty alternative health website, GOOP.com, along with a whole menu for a seven day cleanse diet. Here we go:

“If your bowel movements get sluggish, you can accelerate things by drinking half a cup of castor oil or using a mild herbal laxative. Bowel elimination is paramount for correct detoxification.”

Do you think she and best pal Madonna sit around and compare this kind of thing? I bet you anything that they do - it seems like the kind of topic that they would both really be enthusiastic about. That and exercising 16 hours a day.

Actor Patrick Swayze talked about his cancer and what he’s currently going through with Barbara Walters this week. Here’s what he had to say:

“You can bet that I’m going through hell,” Swayze says to Walters. “And I’ve only seen the beginning of it.”

“There’s a lot of fear here,” he adds. “There’s a lot of stuff going on. Yeah, I’m scared. Yeah, I’m angry. Yeah, I’m [asking] why me. Yeah, I’m all this stuff.”

- source

He also added how he found out he was suffering from cancer: he tried to have some champagne on New Year’s Eve, and it felt like he was drinking acid (fun, right?). And the intestinal issues just started following right on top of each other: he couldn’t eat, was having massive pain, and he lost twenty pounds just like that. How scary! Last I heard, his body is responding well to treatment, so hopefully we’ll have him around for a while longer.

Good no? I need to read the book again. Can’t wait!

While on vacation with his family in the Bahamas, the oldest son of John Travolta and Kelly Preson, Jett Travolta, died after apparently suffering a seizure.

He had suffered for a long time from Kawasaki disease, which can bring with it seizures as well as heart problems. Here are some more updates from TMZ:

UPDATE: 4:40 PM ET — Restview Memorial Mortuary and Crematorium in the Bahamas tells TMZ Jett’s body would be transferred to Restview on Monday.

UPDATE 4:54 PM ET — Police spokeswoman Loretta Mackey says Jett hit his head in a bathtub..

UPDATE 5:15 PM ET — Police just released more details. According to a report, Jett was last seen going into the bathroom at their private suite at the Old Bahama Bay Resort sometime yesterday. The body was discovered by the caretaker, Jeff Michael Kathrein, at 10:00 AM today. The report says Jett suffered from seizures.

An autopsy is being performed to determine the exact cause of death.

How horribly sad.
