Mariska Hargitay At ‘Mildred Pierce’ Premiere

Mariska Hargitay and husband, actor Peter Hermann headed out to the premiere of Mildred Pierce in New York City on Monday evening, March 21st.

The Law & Order: SVU actress choose an all black look with knee high suede boots with soft make-up and hair to complete her look.

Unfortunately for fans of the show, it doesn’t look promising for Hargitay’s Det. Olivia Benson and her partner Det. Elliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni) to ever be anything but professional together.

Writer Dan Tuly told TV Guide that a romantic relationship is not in the cards because it would destroy the show.

“It’s a show killer if they ever get together because everybody loses interest and it ruins everything,” he says. “So we can’t do it, but we can kind of get as close as we can.”

Bad news for Babler shippers!

Check out more photos of Mariska at the premiere below.

Taylor Momsen Sluts It Up Again With The Pretty Reckless (Photos)

 

Ho hum. Another weekend, another photo of Taylor Momsen performing with her band, The Pretty Reckless, whilst wearing some slutty, torn up clothes, garters and stockings.  What is her deal?  Is it her mission to make grown people feel like pedophiles in her presence?  Does she even HAVE parents?

For this performance  at The Wonder Bar in Asbury Park, New Jersey, Taylor recycled half an outfit that she already wore once back in October.  Of course, half an outfit is just about all we ever see her in, anyway.  But THIS outfit is notable for the mere fact that the last time she wore it, she exposed her young bosoms during her show.  Oh yes she did.

Does it occur to you that our dear Miss Taylor is kind of like Miley Cyrus‘ trashy punk cousin? More pics after the jump. (Read the article)

Selena Gomez Tells Ellen DeGeneres ‘I Didn’t Lie’ About Justin Bieber

Selena Gomez is in the hot seat today on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The teenager made an appearance about six months ago when DeGeneres quizzed her about her relationship with Justin Bieber. At the time Gomez commented “He’s little. He’s like my little brother. That’s weird to me.”

The 18 year-old stops by Ellen’s show today and the host plays the video from the last visit for Selena.

After clip is shown, Selena puts head down and laughs….
Selena: Don’t take me to jail.
Ellen: He’s like your little brother?
Selena: Great thing to say, huh?
Ellen: What do you have to say now?
Selena: I don’t know. I don’t know.
Ellen: Well, you were trying to hide it still, right? But now you’ve made it public. Now, you went to the Vanity Fair party and made me a fool.
Selena: Laughs No, I really didn’t.
Ellen: Yes you did!!
Selena: I promise you I didn’t. He’s just sweet. Laughs
Ellen: He is. He’s sweet as can be. But he’s not like your little brother, is he? No, he’s not. And he’s a fantastic guy. You can’t try to hide that forever. I know you all were sneaking around but that’s crazy. You’re both huge stars and you can’t hide from us.
Selena: I didn’t lie to you. I didn’t though. I’ll say that.
Ellen: No, you didn’t blatantly lie. A little brother is not someone you want to date.
Selena: Well, no. That would be weird.
Ellen: That would be wrong and weird in so many ways.

DeGeneres is not angry though. She gives Gomez a pillow with Biebers face on it so she won’t be lonely. Awww.

U2, Rihanna And Justin Bieber Recording Album For Japan Benefit

Celebrity musicians and singers are lining up to appear on a charity album to benefit the victims of the recent Japan earthquake and tsunami.

The digital album is being rushed to be available as early as the end of this week and includes artists Rihanna, U2, Justin Bieber, Nicky Minaj, and Bon Jovi are participating.

It is hoped that Lady Gaga will also be available to be featured for the album which will donate the money to the Japanese Red Cross.

Universal Music spokesperson said “We are doing it only digitally because it is faster, and this will be a worldwide release. The plan is to have it available later this week.”

The tracklisting is still unknown and it hasn’t been said whether it will feature previously released music, new singles or a combination.

The record label is trying to line up more artists who are willing to waive royalty fees to collaborate on the digital album so that more money goes directly to the Red Cross.

The confirmed death toll of the quake and tsunami stands at over 9,000 people with 13,000 still unaccounted for.

 

Kate Winslet’s Sexy Red Carpet Look

Kate Winslet gave fans a hint of skin at the red carpet premiere of the HBO miniseries Mildred Pierce in New York City.

The 35 year-old actress stole the spotlight as she chose a Stella McCartney Fall 2011 black stretch dress that had a side panel of sheer fabric with black dots. The skintight look was covered up, yet sexy and revealing in a very elegant way.

The dress is so new, it hit the catwalk a mere two weeks ago at McCartney’s Paris runway show.

The Oscar winning actress plays the title role in the HBO drama adapted from the 1941 novel by James M. Cain.

Set in the Great Depression Era, Winslet is a woman who separates from her husband, opens her own business – a restaurant – and falls for another man; all very taboo for women in that time.

Mildred Pierce debuts on HBO Sunday March 27th.

Chris Brown Loses His Temper At GMA

Chris Brown let his temper get the best of him again on the set of Good Morning America today.

The singer sat down with Robin Roberts for an interview after he performed a song from his new album and things went south immediately following some questions Brown did not like.

Roberts asked Brown if he had come in contact with Rihanna at any functions now that the restraining order had been lifted but Brown wanted to keep the focus on his album and redirected the interview with his answer.

He was then asked what his album initials F.A.M.E. stood for and when he brought up the subject of “haters” and “naysayers” she thanked him for going back and mentioned how many people had tweeted about it.

After the interview Brown stormed off the set, headed to the dressing room and was yelling and screaming.

TMZ reports: “We’re told Brown was out of control, and one source present tells us he smashed a window in his dressing room, and the glass shattered and some shards fell onto 43rd and Broadway.  ABC security tells TMZ … the window was shattered with a chair.

We’re told by the time security rushed the area, Brown had ripped off his shirt and left the building, blowing off another performance he was supposed to do for the ABC website.

And sources say … on his way out of the building, Brown confronted a segment producer, got in his face and stared him down.   People from the show got in between Chris and the producer to diffuse the situation.”

Brown tweeted “I’m so over people bringing this past s**t up!!! Yet we praise Charlie sheen and other celebs for there bulls**t.”

It was removed and replaced by the following: “All my fans!!! This album is for you and only you!!! I’m so tired of everyone else!! Honestly!! I love team breezy!!”

Aaron Sorkin & Jeff Daniels Head Up HBO’s Cable News Drama

Aaron Sorkin has a new drama on the HBO Original Programming horizon and actor Jeff Daniels is set to play the lead.

Sorkin, who won an Oscar for Best Screenplay for The Social Network, is headed to the pay cable network to script a behind-the-scenes look at cable news.

The writer said of the project: “What the hope is, is that I can bring the same kind of idealism and romanticism that made government seem sexy on The West Wing and I can bring to the news and journalism, which in America is held in at least as much contempt as government.”

Daniels is in negotiations for a leading role, but no further info on the part has been released.
