Kimberly Stewart shows off her growing bump in a rare photo op

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 08:08 AM PDT

Ever since Benicio del Toro's rep confirmed that Benicio impregnated Kimberly Stewart, I've been slightly surprised by how few photo ops Kimberly has arranged of her growing bump. She's gotten pap'd a few times, sure, but I had the mindset of "Kimberly is a famewhore, so she's going to milk this pregnancy for all that it's worth." Could it be that Kimberly is maturing, and that her priorities have changed? Could it be that all of the paparazzi are merely camped out with January Jones's bump? I don't know. These are newish photos of Kimberly and her bump on Wednesday, in LA. Benicio's rep announced the pregnancy in April, probably when she was 3-4 months along? So she's probably 6 to 7 months along now. She's carrying high.

As far as we know, Kimberly is still living somewhere on her father's LA property (it's the guesthouse, right?). And the last thing we heard about Benicio, the tabloids just said that he wasn't very happy that Kimberly was pregnant. I'm surprised the whole thing hasn't gotten more coverage, but then again, as I said, Kimberly has really been keeping on the down-low. I feel like there's more to the story, though. I still want to know whether this pregnancy was the result of just a one-night thing, or whether there was (initially) more to the relationship. I wonder if the lawyers are involved, and Kimberly's disappearing act is more about a financial settlement than a maturing woman?

Star: The True Blood actors are divas & are competing for lines and women on set

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 07:43 AM PDT

truebloodheader
This is an amusing story in this week’s Star that I hope is overblown. I’d like to think of the True Blood men as a kind of brotherhood of hotties, joking around and slapping towels at each other’s asses in homoerotic scenes in the locker room. Star claims that they’re backbiting bitches to each other, though, and are competing for screen time and trying to see who can hook up with the most extras. Even if this story is complete bunk, and I hope it is, it’s nice to hear it about men for once. Stephen Moyer is supposedly above all this since he’s married, but they claim he still acts like an entitled diva. Now that I can believe.

trueblood1

“The cast is full of hot guys with huge egos, and they are all battling to be the breakout star of the show,” an insider tells Star. “They each want the best dialogue, the best story lines and the most camera time.” And for some of the leading men, the feuding goes beyond the screen. “Ryan Kwanten and Alex Skarsgard are constantly competing,” the source reveals. “even about who can lift more weight or do more crunches. They always have their shirts off, flexing their abs.”

And they’re competing over hot girls too. “Some of the guys are making their way through the female extras to see who can hook up with the most,” the insider says. While Stephen Moyer stays true to his wife, Anna Paquin, he is getting a bad rap for his above it all attitude. “Stephen walks around like he’s the big man on campus,” the insider dishes. “He feels like he and Anna deserve the most perks, which doesn’t sit well with the other actors.” The one-set rivalry has also “gotten to be a problem for the producers and a real headache for the rest of the cast and crew,” adds the insider.”

[From Star Magazine, print edition, July 18, 2011]

They don’t mention Nelsan Ellis (Lafayette), Sam Trammell (Sam) or Joe Manganiello (Alcide), all of whom are in long term relationships. Ellis has been with his girlfriend since 1993 and they have a son together, Trammell’s girlfriend is expecting twin boys, and Manganiello is sadly engaged. So it’s hard to tell who Star is referring to when they say they’re competing to bang the women on set. That’s probably the point, though and this whole story is hopefully crap. (Apart from the detail that Ryan and Alex have sweaty workout sessions together in which they love showing each other their abs.)

As for the last episode of True Blood, without revealing any spoilers I have to say the show really picked up steam. Where the first episode this season was too slow and was focused on bringing us up to speed with the various characters a year later, this episode had a tighter plot and some promising twists. I can’t wait to see what happens with Eric! I love him like this, and that’s all I’ll say about it. What happened to the werewolves though? We need some brooding Alcide coming to the rescue. If the books are any indication, and that’s not always the case, he’ll come back soon. (From what I remember, right? A lot of it is a blur to me.)

Emma Stone gets hot for other gingers, she has a crush on Christina Hendricks

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 07:39 AM PDT

wenn3377290

One of our favorite gingers (after Michael Fassbender, Prince Harry, etc) is Emma Stone, and she's got a great new interview in the new issue of The Advocate. Apparently, she has a big gay following, something about her being a tomboy and kissing cute boys that the gays want to claim. Oh, and she's also done pro-gay movies written by gay writers. So, Emma is loved by the readers of The Advocate and she loves them right back. You can read the full piece here - some excerpts are below. My favorite parts are when she talks about how hot Ryan Gosling is and how her imaginary girlfriend is Christina Hendricks (ZOMG, ginger-on-ginger lesbian hotness!):

When did you become aware of your gay following?
When The House Bunny came out, and it was incredibly exciting. That support is profoundly important and moving to me, because you guys are the best. I grew up with a ton of gay friends and witnessed their struggles. One of the most wonderful things about doing Easy A was that we got to tackle issues that many gay teenagers face.

Did you anticipate the extent to which Easy A would resonate with the gay audience?
Our writer, Bert V. Royal, is gay, and these were issues that he had actually experienced growing up, so we knew that would resonate. But when the movie came out last summer, media coverage of gay teen suicides was everywhere. Because the movie came out right in the eye of that storm, the timing ended up being more relevant and poignant than we anticipated.

Who's the most important gay person in your life?
I did a lot of theater growing up, and I was lucky to be raised in a family that was very accepting, so someone being gay was never odd or off-putting to me. I have a lot of wonderful gay friends, but one of the most formative men in my life is Max, who's been my best friend since I was 11 years old. He's the funniest human being on the planet, and he single-handedly taught me how to do improv. He also taught me what friendship is and what it is to truly know someone. Now we both live in New York, so we've been able to stay close for our whole lives.

Your character in The Help, "Skeeter," is a young journalist who exposes the injustices suffered by black housemaids in 1960s Mississippi. Do you also strive to use your creative power to speak out on socio-political issues?
I'm the least eloquent person on the planet, so I don't know that I'd be the right person to speak out on anything. But that's what's so wonderful about good movies and writers: I can be a part of a project that says what I wish I could say. My ultimate goal is to continue doing movies with some sort of message that can make a change, like Easy A or The Help. Because that's what good movies do for me: They teach me and bring injustices to my attention.

In the Crazy, Stupid, Love. trailer, your character admires Ryan Gosling's shirtless torso and says, "It's like you're photoshopped!" Since you got closer to all that than most of us ever will, what else can you share?
Well, I got to touch it too, so I can confirm that he isn't photoshopped at all. He put in all the hard work, and it will not disappoint you.

Instead of boy-crazy girly girls, you often play these strong, independent women with an edgy tomboy quality, which has certainly endeared you to lesbian fans.
Really? Oh, I'm so flattered. The tomboy quality is probably coincidental just due to the fact that my voice hits male octaves most of the time. I don't really think about it — I just respond to what I read — but I must be subconsciously drawn to women who, even if they don't necessarily have their shit together, are secure within themselves and don't need a man to fix them.

Are you a tomboy or a girly girl in real life?
It depends on the day. I'm a solid party mix of both.

A lesbian role seems like a logical next step for you.
Right? Send me over a good script. That sounds amazing.

Which gay star would you play in a biopic?
Can I play a man? Anthony Perkins would be interesting, because it was kind of a secret thing.

When you guested on Chelsea Lately, Chelsea Handler asked if you had a girlfriend when you evaded her question about having a boyfriend. You responded sarcastically, but I got excited for a second.
No, I don't have a girlfriend. But who knows? You love who you love.

Do you have a girl crush?
Christina Hendricks. It's a no-brainer. Everything about her does it for me. That's my kind of woman.

Like her, you're a natural blonde who's found fame as a redhead. Were you surprised by the brouhaha on the blogosphere when you went back to blonde to play Gwen Stacy in next year's The Amazing Spider-Man?
It was so funny. To me, hair is hair — you dye it, cut it, whatever — so all that attention was wild.

It gets confusing for a guy who might want to dress as you for Halloween.
Damn it. OK, always stick with red — that's my advice to a drag Emma Stone. I may be a blonde at roots, but I'm a redhead at heart.

[From The Advocate]

I love her. So, so much. "I may be a blonde at roots, but I'm a redhead at heart." Sassy little thing. Now, who else is having a little ginger sex fantasy starring Emma, Christina and Michael Fassbender? OMG. Hot gingers, mixing it up. Jesus, that's a good fantasy. Now throw in Prince Harry. Good lord.

Beyonce’s new music video features lingerie, a tacky gown & a tweaked face

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 07:01 AM PDT

bey2

Oh. My. God. Seriously, are there still people who actively believe that Beyonce hasn't gotten tweaked?!? I wasn't even five seconds into this absolutely AWFUL music video for "Best Thing I Never Had" (her new single) when I had to stop the video and just gawp at her odd face. She definitely did something to her nose, but I still thing there's something weird with her eyes/eyebrow area too. BITCH GOT TWEAKED.

As for the video… WTF? Michael K is right - it's part Victoria's Secret ad, part David's Bridal ad. I swear the song sounds like the David's Bridal jingle too. Now, I'm not a prude (actually, I kind of am), and I can handle scantily-clad pop stars frolicking around in general, unless they're underage raccoons….but is anyone else just uncomfortable watching Beyonce's tweaked face stare down the camera as she wears this white Merry Widow and garters? Sometimes, Beyonce's videos have a too-close "snuff film" feel, and this is one of them. I feel like we're watching her honeymoon video, in which she was just recorded prancing around in lingerie, singing to herself.

And then the out-of-nowhere "video" from "1998"… with Beyonce tries a new wig, remarkably not blonde. This whole music video is utterly bizarre. I guess the video is about a blonde who hangs out in lingerie and wedding gowns all day, thinking about how her ex is a douche? The Jennifer Aniston Story, in other words.

That wedding gown is TERRIBLE too. Gold detailing on the bodice, and then those hip ruffles? Tacky. And to make it worse, her veil-tiara is much too big. Everything about this video is a disaster.

PS… who read CDAN's revealed blind item about Jay-Z and his alleged 10-year affair with a French model? Interesting, isn't it?

Gwyneth Paltrow: “I’d rather smoke crack than eat cheese from a can”

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 06:54 AM PDT

wenn3397582

Some days, Gwyneth Paltrow just makes me sad. She's just so, so concerned with proving to absolutely everyone that she's the best, most superior elitist out there, I feel like she misses out on, you know, just BEING. Just existing in the world, having fun, laughing a little. I feel like she's always on guard, always assessing the room, always making sure that she's not too close to the peasants, always trying, constantly TRYING to ensure that she is the absolute coolest, the best, the most special. So here's what is making me sad today - Gwyneth was doing promotion for her book in London, and she explained her prioritization of the right kind of food:

HOLLYWOOD super chef Gwyneth Paltrow shocked viewers by telling Jonathan Ross: "I'd rather smoke crack than eat cheese from a can" on stage this week.

The foodie, 38, was chatting about her cookbook at the Roundhouse Studios for the iTunes festival on Tuesday when she revealed she's banned her kids from McDonald's.

"I take them to Pizza Express because I think that's much healthier," she said. "Don't tell them there are toys!"

Sidestepping questions about her hubby, Coldplay's Chris Martin, Gwynnie, who says she can "eat any man under a table", revealed plans to start a channel of cookery programmes on an iPhone app – but you might wanna buy some plonk before giving her recipes a go.

"I drink constantly while I'm cooking," she says. "Wine, either colour."

[From The Mirror]

Now, I don't eat cheese from a can either, but I don't sniff the air haughtily and declare that smoking crack would be a better option. You give me a choice between chicken McNuggets and a crackpipe, I’ll choose the nuggets every time, so I also don't see that big of a difference between greasy pizza and greasy McDonalds. But hey, I'm not a Goop-level snob (yet). Just for fun, let's make a "I Would Rather Smoke Crack Than…" list:

I Would Rather Smoke Crack Than…

1. Be friends with Goop.
2. Be married to Goop.
3. Be forced into some kind of hostage situation where Goop and I were meant to bond.
4. Listen to Goop rap NWA songs.
5. Be told how fat and peasant-y I am by Goop.
6. Share a bottle of wine with Goop.
7. Go on a juice fast that Goop recommended.
8. Work in any capacity for or with Goop.
9. Get into some kind of eating competition with Goop.
10. Be forced to spend any amount of time with Goop while my smacking hand was somehow restrained.

By the way, last year, during an interview, Gwyneth revealed that her daughter Apple had no idea what soda was. I thought this was odd, and I said so, and everyone yelled at me (which is fine). But I still think it's weird that a kid, aged 5 or 6, wouldn't even KNOW what soda is. If you don't want to give your kids soda, more power to you and God bless, but to those of you who refuse to let your kids drink soda: your kids KNOW what soda is, right?

More often than not, when Gwyneth is talking about food and how she's raising her kids, while I understand that she's trying to pass on a legacy of healthy eating, it just feels like Gwyneth is actually passing on her food/diet/workout issues (and trust me, the bitch has issues). What's going to happen when Apple develops some puberty puppy fat? Will Gwyneth tell her "You're fat. What's happening to you? I love you, get it together." What happens when Moses wants a Coke and some crackers with canned cheese for his after-school snack? Will there be a meltdown of Goop-proportions? Also: will Gwyneth encourage her kids to do juice fasts and fad diets, like she's recommended to her Goop-readers? Will Apple's memoir be titled "I Ate Canned Cheese, and I Liked It"? Or "My Mother Was Too Drunk To Make The Pizzas: How I Got These Burns From Our Outdoor Oven"?

Megan Fox lifts her eyebrows up to show she hasn’t had Botox

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 06:01 AM PDT

armani1
New ads featuring Megan Fox for Armani beauty have been released. We considered covering this yesterday, but Kaiser and I thought they were the same ads as before, since there were some previously-released photos mixed in there. She looks gorgeous to me, but the Photoshopping is very heavy-handed. In some photos she looks faker than usual, in others she looks more natural. (As we saw from Kim Kardashian’s new Cosmopolitan cover there’s a trend of photoshopping plasticized women so that they look closer to their natural, normal selves.) She’s just otherworldly looking, and that’s only achieved through a unique mix of plastic surgery and airbrushing.

armani2

For comparison, this is what Megan looked like just in 2004. Some people have expressed doubt that these photos are even real, because Megan looks so different. I got this straight from the photo agency, where there are many more:
Megan Fox

And here’s what she looks like now. Her eyebrows make a world of difference, but I see a new nose, lip fillers and possible buccal fat pad removal in the cheeks, although Megan is so little that could just be natural.

In response to eyebrows raised over her wacky Armani ads, Megan posted photos of herself on Facebook [via ETOnline] raising her eyebrows to show her remarkable acting ability. She can do sexy, sexy disapproving, sexy surprised and sexy worried. She put these under the (all caps) title “Things you can’t do with your face when you have Botox.”

sexysurprised

Maybe she doesn’t have Botox considering her incredible range, but check her out again in 2004. (From a different photo agency than the other 2004 photo.) Is there any doubt this girl has had a ton of work done?

Jennifer Aniston brings clean-cut Justin Theroux to her Grauman’s event

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 05:50 AM PDT

jennifer_aniston_handprint_ceremony_13_wenn5686845

Oh, goodness. I could analyze these photos for a very long time. On Thursday, Jennifer Aniston attended her Grauman's Chinese Theater hand-and-footprint event. On hand to celebrate? The two most important people in her life, her publicist, Stephen Huvane, and her boyfriend, Justin Theroux. Anyone from Friends? Nope. But her BFF Chelsea Handler was there (mother of God), as was Jason Bateman (cute). So… where should we start? Let's do fashion first. Aniston wore this cute, flirty little Prada dress that was pretty short, but not too low-cut - she only flashed minimal cleavage when she was bent over, doing her handprints. My guess is that she flashed her biscuits to everyone behind her, though. BUT! We should give thanks that it's not black, and that she chose a summery frock in the middle of summer (you'd be surprised with how few Hollywood ladies make that choice).

As for her homewrecked lover, Justin… um, I think he looks nice. He looks like an "edgy boy" used to wearing leather and punk rock studs and mangy beards, who somehow managed to find a nice pair of pants, a lovely, clean dress shirt and a snappy tie, and he put it all together. Two things…he's wearing dress shoes, not boots! That's love, people. When I man puts away his beloved boots to wear fancy dress shoes to your event, that means that he cares (or that you dressed him yourself). Second: his grooming. Clean shaven, hair freshly cut, a nice comb over for his bald spot. Not bad at all. Methinks that Justin is totally game for whatever is going down, you know? I'll say it again: he's not John Mayer. He's not some boy who is going to get overwhelmed by "the process" of being Jennifer Aniston's Boyfriend. Theroux knows what's up, he knows what's expected of him, and he's meeting those expectations. Maybe he has his own agenda, or maybe he actually cares about Jennifer. I don't know. But he's playing the game, and he's doing really well.

I also enjoy the interplay between Justin and Jennifer in the photos - even though they didn't pose together, he was still seated close enough to the staging area so as to be in the same frame in many of the photos. His eyes rarely leave Aniston - it's kind of sexy. She, in turn, seems to be looking at him a lot to, making faces and "performing" for him, even blowing him a kiss. It's kind of cute, I'll admit. I think it might even be "love". I KNOW for a fact that it's "Aniston's 2012 Oscar Date".

As for Huvane - he's the dark-haired guy in the light plaid shirt, the one who is often in between Jennifer and Justin in the frame. I swear, I can almost make out the strings going from Jennifer and Justin's backs to Huvane's hands. Machiavellian bastard. What's his Aniston Endgame?

Duchess Kate does Calgary in Jenny Packham & cowboy hats: cute or fug?

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 05:48 AM PDT

63719pcn_wilkate42

Here are some of the last photos from Duchess Kate and Prince William's Canadian tour, their stop in Calgary. For her arrival, Kate wore this yellow dress by Jenny Packham, who is the same designer who did Kate's memorable blush-pink, sparkly evening gown several weeks ago. I wouldn't think Kate could pull off this butter-yellow color, being a brunette and all, but it works on her, and I even find it flattering. I like the full skirt too - it flatters her slender legs, and I'm not left wincing. The only part of the dress I don't like are those enormous buttons. What the button?!?

63719pcn_wilkate13

63719pcn_wilkate37

63719pcn_wilkate32

After the arrival in yellow, Kate donned her favorite pair of skinny jeans, a cute cowgirl blouse, and an enormous cowboy hat, all for a photo op at a rodeo. Kate just has one of those faces where she can basically wear any kind of hat. Very few women have that kind of face, and it's amazing that those ladies who can wear the hell out of any hat somehow find their way into the royal family. I wonder if it's a prerequisite for royal girlfriends? "Must look good in a hat." As for Will… he's not a hat person. He looks like an ass in his cowboy hot. But the duchess was generous to him - apparently, she motioned to the men in chaps and whispered to Will, "We should get you in a pair of these!" OH BEHAVE, Duchess! Damn, girl. You like your men in CHAPS?

Star: Katy Perry and Russell Brand will divorce within four months

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 05:42 AM PDT

fp_7188106_barm_arthur_35_41

From the very beginning of their whirlwind courtship, Katy Perry and Russell Brand gave off vibes of knowing they were working against the odds of a successful long-term pairing. Still, they persisted in a quickie marriage before Russell returned to his movie star career, and Katy departed for a nine-month, candy-themed, pop-star tour. Naturally, subsequent issues have arisen. He doesn’t like that she still smokes and parties without him, and she worries that he will cheat during her tour. Hence the rumors that they were already seeking couple therapy three months in because, essentially, they got married when they had a free weekend and then resumed their own respective life paths. Naturally, it didn’t help matters that Russell got deported from Japan during one of their rare shagging opportunities. And perhaps it really was a bad omen when Katy developed a mysterious rash during their honeymoon. Whatever the ultimate cause (and I suspect that there are indeed many), Star predicts that tensions (and distance) between the couple are so high that they’ll be divorced before their marriage hits the one-year mark.

Any long-distance relationship is hard. Now imagine photos of your far-away husband holding hands with a mystery blonde splashed around the globe! That’s exactly what happened to Katy Perry when pics surfaced of her husband of eight months, Russell Brand, looking very chummy with a woman on the set of his new movie, Rock of Ages. The woman is reportedly a stylist on the film and a platonic friend, but it’s just the latest issue for a couple who have seen each other only a handful of times during the past four months and are leading separate lives.

And things are not getting better. Katy and Russell will spend only four days together in the next six months, Star has learned. “Neither of them thought about the crushing reality of their demanding careers or the effect it would have on the marriage,” a mutual friend tells Star exclusively. “They love each other, but they’re barely ever together.” That has raised questions about whether the marriage can survive.

Just recently, they managed to carve out a rare three days together in Miami, where Russell is living as he films his movie, costarring Julianne Hough and Tom Cruise. Katy’s schedule is no less hectic. After performing in the Bahamas, she was thrilled to have a brief break in her grueling California Dreams tour, which began in February and has recently been extended through November.

Their blissful weekend was agonizingly short for the newlyweds, and their jam-packed calendars are only getting worse. Indeed, their marital home in Los Feliz, Calif., hasn’t been occupied for along time, leading Katy to wonder if they even have a marriage at all, says a source. But neither Katy nor Russell is giving up yet — and they just purchased a $6.5 million mansion in the Hollywood Hills, despite the fact that they will rarely be there together. On top of that, there’s the issue of that recent photograph. “Katy wants to save the marriage, but she is starting to think that if she’s not physically there, Russell will be cozying up to other girls because he’s a guy who needs human contact and reassurance.”

Oceans and overseas concerts aren’t the only things driving a wedge between the colorful couple. Many close to Katy worry that impulsive Russell rushed her into marriage, only to default on his promises. “It was all Russell’s doing,” a mutual friend says of Katy and Rusell’s whirlwind romance. “He is a recovering addict and in love with the idea of being in love. He told her that they’d overcome any obstacle. Katy’s actually very young and impressionable compared to him, so when he said, ‘Let’s get married! What could possibly go wrong, we’re so in love!’ she was totally taken in.”

[From Star, print edition, July 18, 2011]

This story seems to piggyback upon all of the previous questions about this marriage with the flimsy fact that Russell was being platonically (for him) affectionate on the set of Rock of Ages. Do I think that he’s banging this stylist? No. Do I think he’ll eventually bang someone other than Katy? Yep.

Other than Russell’s notorious shagging reputation (which, honestly, he seems to have curbed), the distance seems to be the real issue at hand here. While I don’t think that the situation is extreme enough that Katy and Russell will divorce within the next four months, I think there might be some regrets on Katy’s end. Certainly, they were both aware of the fact that they’d spend a great deal of time apart, but it’s always different when you’re actually going through it. If these two are right for each other, they’ll work it out, but we all know that’s probably not the case. Still, I think Katy’s probably too stubborn at this point to reveal to the public that she married (the wrong guy) too quickly, so she’ll probably hang on for at least another year or so. I mean, if they’re already physically “separated,” what use to her is a divorce at this point? Now, when (and if) they actually start spending time together, then they’ll figure out whether or not they get along well enough to remain married.

Now, I’m going to go off on a slight tangent. To compare (in the very vaguest sense of the word) Katy and Russell’s situation to a military marriage, a lot of couples can endure lengthy deployments and mobilizations, but it’s the reunion period that causes even more marital tension. Similarly, Japan’s so-called “Retired Husband Syndrome” also illustrates that a marriage can be tested by time apart, but the real definitive element exists in how the couple handles their newly acquired time together. And when this happens for the couple in question, perhaps it will then be time for Russell to realize that Katy is not so endlessly fascinating after all.

Emma Watson’s frothy Elie Saab party dress: adorable or boring?

Posted: 08 Jul 2011 05:41 AM PDT

wenn3429118

Even more Harry Potter premiere stuff! I know, it's overkill, but these aren't more red carpet photos (you can see our red carpet coverage here and here). These are photos from the post-premiere party! Little Emma Watson made a costume change from her enormous tulle Oscar de la Renta gown to this sparkly little Elie Saab. Once again, I think Emma pulls it off because of her youth - it's a girly, frilly, frothy little dress on a young woman, and it works. She doesn't even look washed out! I'm not a huge fan of the stiffness of the skirt (I imagine it would be difficult to sit in), but it's not horrible.

As for Emma's hair… I believe this is the same (awkward) hair style she did at the premiere. I still don't like it. Does Emma not realize how cute she looks when she just slicks the whole mess down? Of course she realizes it - because she slicked it down for her final look of the evening. That's right, people. Emma had THREE costume changes in ONE night. Behold, Emma's last outfit of the evening, a gorgeous little black mini and black jacket:

How great does this look? THIS should have been the premiere and after-party look. So chic, so simple and glamorous. Although… does anyone have any thoughts on Emma thinking she absolutely needed THREE costume changes for the premiere and after-party?
