Sandra Bullock & Ryan Reynolds Are So Darn Cute Together At ‘The Change Up’ Premiere

Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds posed for photographers on the red carpet of The Change Up premiere in Los Angeles at the Regency Village Theater last night.

Bullock, 47, kept it simple and sexy in a strapless black Lanvin jumpsuit with strappy heels and had her gorgeous smile on display again.

Reynolds, 34, and his Proposal costar laughed and joked as they made their way inside to the event. Ryan and Sandra have been the subject of relationship rumors for a while.

After Bullock’s marriage to Monster Garage host Jesse James ended and Reynolds’ separated from his wife, actress Scarlett Johansson, the actor was reportedly seen at Bullock’s Austin, Texas home and the speculation that the two had become romantic off screen was in full force.

Both have denied any romance and have always said they are just friends but how cute are they together? Seriously!

More photos of both are under. (Read the article)

Jennifer Lopez Is Still Optimistic About Marriage: ‘I’m A Hopeless Romantic’

Giving her first post-split interview, Jennifer Lopez opens up in Vanity Fair‘s September issue about her life, her optimism and Marc Anthony. Here’s what she revealed:

On how she still sees love & relationships in a positive light: “That was my biggest dream, and I really worked hard at it. We both did. Sometimes it doesn’t work—and that’s sad. But I remain an eternal optimist about love. I believe in love. It’s still my biggest dream. I am positive—determined to move forward with my life, bring up my babies, and do the best job I can as a mother, entertainer, and person. I now look forward to new challenges. I feel strong.”

On compromising and when it’s time to walk away: “I’m a hopeless romantic and passionate person when it comes to love. It’s not that I didn’t love myself before. Sometimes we don’t realize that we are compromising ourselves. To understand that a person is not good for you, or that that person is not treating you in the right way, or that he is not doing the right thing for himself—if I stay, then I am not doing the right thing for me. I love myself enough to walk away from that now.”

The 42 year-old singer and American Idol also said that she will “always respect Marc as a singer and a performer,” and that he will “always hold a special place in her heart.”

The issue is on sale in NY, LA and on iPad August 3rd, nationwide it’s available August 9th.

Lindsay Lohan’s Ex, Samantha Ronson Arrested For DUI

DJ Samantha Ronson was arrested for DUI at 10:30 AM Monday morning while driving through the California town of Baker.

The 33 year-old was leaving Las Vegas in a black Porsche with a female friend when she was pulled over for speeding.

Officers gave Ronson a field sobriety test that she did not pass. When the police asked her to take a “roadside blow” test (a less accurate breathalyzer,) she refused and was arrested.

The deejay was transported to the police station and she did submit to a breathalyzer at the station where it was determined she was well over the legal limit.

Ronson was reportedly cooperative through the process.

Ronson was working at Lavo nightclub in Sin City and on her way back from her gig when she was pulled over.

Samantha dated Lindsay Lohan in 2008 and into 2009 at the height of Lohan’s personal troubles. She is also the sister of British musician and producer Mark Ronson.

Kim Kardashian Selects Vera Wang To Make Her Wedding Dress

Kim Kardashian is busy planning her wedding, which is coming up so quickly (August 20) that you just have to wonder if she didn’t have certain details worked out even before she had a groom or a ring on her finger.

Actually, you don’t have to wonder, because she just admitted on her blog that certain things already were in place.   Like her wedding dress designer.  She revealed that Vera Wang will make her gown, and explained:

Vera has been a close family friend for a long time and we had talked about this moment for years, so when it came to picking my wedding dress designer she was the first person I thought of. No one designs gowns the way she does!  I know that Vera can make my dream come true and create the most perfect gown for my special day.

Given that Kim was already seen at the Vera Wang bridal boutique, this is no big surprise, although I still think it’s an unlikely choice for Kim.

By the way, have you seen Kim’s wedding invitation yet?

Kim Kardashian

Designed by Lehr & Black, the black-on-white invitations are “embellished with hundreds of jet black hematite crystals” and were apparently too elaborate for any old envelope.  They arrived at their destinations enclosed in a box.  I wonder how long ago Kim picked them out?

Selena Gomez Kicks Off Her ‘We Own The Night’ Tour In Florida

Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez kicked off her nationwide tour with a spectacular show in Boca Raton, Florida on July 28.  She said back in May that fans could expect “a lot of glitter” in the “We Own The Night” Tour and she kept her promise:  there’s enough glitter in this one costume to outfit a couple of showgirls.

“We Own The Night” is her second tour with her band, Selena Gomez and The Scene, and the first one they’ve headlined.   She admitted that the pressure has caused some sleepless nights.  “I’m nervous more than anything because I feel like there’s going to be a bit of expectation,” Selena said.   However, making sure “everyone has a fun time” is her primary goal.

Selena’s sweetie Justin Bieber was on hand to cheer her on for opening night.

The tour continues with about 30 shows in the U.S. and Canada this summer, including several at state fairs around the country.

Peep more pictures and go behind the scenes with a backstage video from Boca Raton after the jump.

Princess Beatrice Looks Lovely At Her Cousin Zara Phillips’ Wedding

Princess Beatrice

Princess Beatrice got a lot of criticism for her overall appearance – but especially her unfortunate choice of hat – at the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.   I won’t lie:  I, myself, dished some of that criticism.  It was awful.  On the other hand, it raised a ton of money for charity and that might not have happened with a less notorious accessory.

So.  If you thought that Beatrice might turn out for the wedding of her cousin Zara Phillips and Mike Tindall in something equally outrageous, you must have been sadly disappointed.  She looked completely amazing!  Her electric blue suit by Angela Kelly was fun, youthful, and totally appropriate for a summer afternoon wedding.   I love the embellished skirt.  I am particularly happy (relieved, too) to say that her hat was awfully cute too.   She’s also lost the raccoon eyeliner, thankfully.

Really, she looks completely transformed.  Just lovely, the way a young princess should look.   Brava, Beatrice – well done!

Princess Anne

The mother and grandmother of the bride both wore pink at the wedding of Zara Phillips and Mike Tindall this past Saturday.

Zara’s mother, Princess Anne, chose a two-piece ensemble with a pleated skirt and a floral jacket with three-quarter sleeves.  She accessorized with a tasteful floral fascinator, very proper white gloves, and what seem to be the new official shoes of the Royal Family – nude pumps.

Queen Elizabeth II

Queen Elizabeth, Zara’s grandmother, wore a tailored coat dress by her favorite designer, Stewart Parvin – who also designed Zara’s wedding dress.
