Kellan Lutz stopped to hand out a few kisses on the red carpet at last night's People's Choice Awards. We also chatted with Diane Kruger about making friends on movie sets and Carrie Underwood about her wedding plans. Check out all of the night's biggest highlights and backstage celebrity tweets on PopSugar Rush now!
The Marie Claire cover debacle with Jennifer Hawkins just won’t die. Hawko has finally spoken out about the controversy, saying that she regrets posing nude for the mag and being presented as the poster girl for women with poor body image issues. To make matters worse, she’s cheesed-off the top dog at Myer, Bernie Brookes, who wasn’t even aware she was doing a nude cover shoot. Call me crazy, but I would think since Myer is paying her $5 million to represent them, that someone from her management team MIGHT have run the idea past the Myer peeps before proceeding. Jen claims she did the shoot to raise money for the Butterfly Foundation, which helps people with eating disorders, but that message has been lost in the negative backlash. She also says she was unaware that her un-airbrushed image would be used to present a woman with "flaws". Bianca Dye and Tiffani Wood recently got their gear off for Madison and join a growing list of celebrities who have stripped down to promote healthy body images. But what do you think — do naked celebrities make you feel better about your body?
There were many lovely ladies on the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards, but as always, a few of the frocks didn't hit the mark. From the ill-fitting to the oddly accessorised, we've narrowed it down to five dresses we just aren't feeling. Leah Michele is currently winning for the evening's best look, but tell us — who do you think was the worst dressed at the People's Choice Awards?
Mariah brought Nick Cannon along to hit the portrait studio, wrapping up another exciting if less champagne-filled night. The casts of House and Glee each crowded together for group shots. The other winners also stopped by to ham it up for the cameras in some of the night's cutest photos. There's more People's Choice Awards coverage coming up, including video of our red carpet interviews, more from the press room and all of the night's fashion and beauty breakdowns!
After scoring the trophy for Favourite R & B Artist, Mariah Carey made her way back to the press room. I couldn't help but notice that she had an entourage helping her down the stairs (including husband Nick Cannon), but Mariah assured us, "I'm really nice, but people think I'm a diva because i walk around with 800 people." She also confessed to having a secret new year's resolution and joked that Lee Daniels is to blame for her much-talked-about speech at the Palm Springs Film Festival earlier this week. Here are more highlights:
On what's next:I loved, loved doing Precious. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life so I'm hoping to continue doing films.
On who would play her in a biopic: Me. That would be something I wouldn't let go because unless they tell the real story, it would be boring.
On whether or not she was tipsy at the Film Festival: Everybody in the club gettin' tipsy.
On how her speech was received: If people don't understand me and think I'm just some girl who stands by a microphone who sings "Hero", then they wont get me. But I have a sense of humour and that's what gets me through life.
The stars warmed up chilly LA yesterday, with some smoking hot dresses on the red carpet at the 2010 People's Choice Awards. The ladies stepped it up with a variety of metallic accents — including a shiny new engagement ring on Carrie Underwood. Twilight star Kellan Lutz joined in the fashion fun sporting a bold blue jacket. Diane Kruger and Olivia Wilde showed off different takes on white, while funny girl Sandra Bullock's simple hair and makeup let her dress shine. Inside she met up with Ryan Reynolds and the two got super cute together in the press room.
Alyson Hannigan went with a classic black silhouette and was one of the night's winners — check out the whole list here. Glee costars Corey Monteith, Dianna Agron and Lea Michele hit a high note on the red carpet with their bright smiles and short skirts. There was tons more fun once the show got started. Make sure to check in with Fab and Bella, who covered all the fashion and beauty from the big night!
The red carpet sexiness was just a precursor to the excitement of the People's Choice Awards show. Queen Latifah was once again host for the star-studded evening and kept the clip quick for the two-hour show. Ellen was the night's first winner — check out the full list here! Sacha Baron Cohen finished off the show with a funny presentation to his Sweeney Todd costar and Favourite Movie Actor of the Decade, Johnny Depp. Country sweethearts Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood both walked away with statues and there was no on camera Lautner-Swift run-in. One of the cutest parts of the show was when Inglourious Basterds' Diane Kruger, Eli Roth and BJ Novak announced Lautner's win with cheering. While Nicole Kidman sported gloves as she held hands with Keith Urban, who was named Favourite Male Artist, after they posed with Latifah and boy Taylor.
Mariah Carey had to have some help on her way up to the stage to accept for Favourite R&B Artist, and once she and Nick Cannon made it to the press room she was ready to joke about her Palm Springs appearance that had everyone talking, announcing to the press, "Everybody in the club's getting tipsy!" Sandra Bullock got a little emotional accepting one of her awards of the night, but backstage she was all about joking with her fellow-winner and The Proposal castmate Ryan Reynolds. Valentine's Day costars Jessica Alba and Ashton Kutcher posed together backstage after she awarded him the web celeb honours — which he of course streamed live on his Twitter. It was a great night all around, and we're so excited for all the fun and madness coming up all award season long!
I love a good cinematic "I do" (Father of the Bride is one of my faves), but I'm worried that the latest big-screen nuptials, Our Family Wedding, is missing the mark. The film stars America Ferrera and Lance Gross as an engaged, mixed race couple. Once preparations begin, their Mexican and African American families clash, particularly their fathers (Carlos Mencia and Forest Whitaker), as the two dads try to outdo each other.
Sounds like a familiar (and predictable) premise, but I still had hopes for this one—especially with Ferrera and Whitaker in the cast. That is, until I saw the trailer. I wish this was along the lines of My Big Fat Greek Wedding with its funny take on cultural differences, but it looks more like an over-the-top comedy that tries too hard for cheap laughs (think goats on Viagra).
Jennifer Lopez flashed some skin front and center on the cover of February's US Elle — check out more images from the shoot here. Jennifer kept the Oscar talk out of this interview, but she did exude confidence talking about her upcoming album, swearing a bit and explaining why some of her movies worked so well. Up next is The Back-Up Plan as well as what she calls "Hyper J Lo," because she wants success now more than ever. Here are highlights:
On her successful movies: "I think Maid in Manhattan and Monster-in-Law are very layered movies. And that’s why they’re so successful. People don’t like sh*tty romantic comedies. Nothing that’s sh*tty is going to make $100 million."
On being a mum and a pop star at 40: "This is what I do—what, because I have kids and a husband now I’m not supposed to be me? I’m a more heightened me if anything. Hyper J Lo. Everything I wanted before, I want twice as much now. And that doesn’t mean material things; it means to explore more, to think more. Being an artist doesn’t start because you’re 21, and it doesn’t end because you’re 51. You are who you are until the day you die."
I guess this means that Rachel Bilson is not The One for Ted? People reports that Carrie Underwood has been tapped to guest star on How I Met Your Mother as a perky drug sales rep — and a love interest for Ted. Considering the show's 100th episode — and Bilson's appearance — are around the corner and Underwood hasn't shot her scenes yet, I'm getting discouraged that Bilson could be Ted's future wife.
Whatever the future holds, who do you envision as the future mother of Ted Mosby's kids? Carrie Underwood? Rachel Bilson? Are you holding out for it to possibly be Robin or another character we've already met? And if none of these fit, who would you cast?
