Pippa and Kate Middleton, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Beyonce and Solange Knowles and the Fanning girls are all fashionable sisters in magazines for the holidays.

First up was Vogue’s Annual Best Dressed Women and now Dakota and Elle Fanning take the cover of the December issue of W magazine.

The sisters are photographed by Mario Sorrenti in stylish, gorgeous and amazing in gold lace Valentino Couture dresses for the holiday issue.

Dakota, 17, spoke about staying grounded:

“I don’t know if I’ve ever gotten any formal advice, but I’ve always felt that you should never forget that you’re just a person,” the Twilight actress said. “Even though you’re not like everyone else, you are just like everyone else. For instance, I met someone the other day, and they said, ‘Hi, I’m so-and-so.’ I said, ‘Hi, I’m Dakota.’ And they’re like, ‘Yeah, I know.’ But I can’t lose the fact that I still need to introduce myself to people even though they might already know my name or who I am. Oh, yeah, I guess you already know my name, but I’m going to say it anyway.”

Elle, 13, said she’s adjusting to having her older sis off at college:

“She is a nice older sister. But it’s not like we always get along. Now that she’s going to college, it’s different. I went into her room at home in California, and all her clothes were gone! Her closet was empty! I don’t get to go in there and steal clothes anymore. It’s really strange. It’s sort of like she’s off making a movie, but this time she’s not coming back.”

Brad Pitt says his days as a leading man are numbered.

The 47 year-old is thinking of retiring from acting by the age of 50 and perhaps dabbling more in the behind-the-scenes areas of filmmaking.

“Three years,” he told the Australian version of 60 Minutes. “Hell if I know [what I'll do next]. I’m really enjoying the producorial side and development of stories, and putting those pieces together, and getting those stories to the plate that might have had a tougher time otherwise.”

Pitt also said his children with partner Angelina Jolie influence the projects he picks. The father of six – Maddox, 10, Pax, 7, Zahara, 6, Shiloh, 5, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 3 years-old – wants his kids to be proud of their dad.

“If I’m choosing a film now, I want it to be maybe less immature than things I’ve done in the past. I’m very conscious they’re going to see it when they’re adults. I want it to mean something to them. I want them to think dad’s alright. It changes everything. Everything. And it’s so damn interesting,” Pitt said.

While he isn’t happy about the level of attention his family gets (“It’s the only thing I get hot about, that I’m ready to fight about,” he told the program,) the Moneyball actor knows his kids have a life of privilege that he’s happy they get to experience and says there is a possibility of more Jolie-Pitt offspring in the future.

“I don’t know that we’re finished. I don’t know yet. I don’t know,” he said.

It shouldn’t have been a surprise to her but Kat Von D says she wanted to believe in Jesse James and got burned in the end.

The LA Ink star and tattoo artist took to her facebook page to admit to the world she was wrong about her ex-fiance James and that yes, he did indeed cheat on her, just like he did with his ex-wife, Sandra Bullock.

“Today I encountered the 19th girl to add to the list of people Jesse cheated on me with during this last year,” her post titled “Thank You, Jesse James” begins.

Von D said she was hoping that the world would eventually see James in a positive light, one where he wasn’t always the villain like he was portrayed in the media but in the end he’s still in a “dark place.”

“I think it just made me sad today to imagine him still in that dark place – where seeking validation through the attention of women takes precedence over being a good father, a sincere friend, a better coworker, and a happy individual.”

She acknowledges that people want to tell her “I told you so” but wants to move forward and not live in the past.

“It would be nice to move on now, and kindly thank you all in advance for your support, love, and positivity,” Von D wrote.

“Life is far too grand to focus on the negative and put each other down.”

I don’t think she said anything terribly negative but I don’t get why she’s writing this now. Was the 19th woman the straw that broke the proverbial camel’s back? The 16th, 17th, 18th (or heck, the 1st, 2nd or 3rd) didn’t bring her to this place of reflection?

I suppose bringing this up and addressing it months later, after your break up is moving on.

What do you think?

Take a look at the first trailer for The Hunger Games!!

Good Morning America had the first peek of Jennifer Lawrence and the gang are in their full-costumed glory (check out Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket in matching magenta suit and make-up!)

The first trailer is all about the lead up to the games, giving viewers an introduction to the characters and places; and of course, how the story comes to be with Katniss Everdeen (Lawrence) and Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) fighting for their lives in The Hunger Games.

We only get a glimpse at the other competitors and a small window of the beginning of the deadly competition but I’m sure more will be coming.

The Hunger Games cast includes Liam Hemsworth, Wes Bentley, Stanley Tucci, Donald Sutherland, Lenny Kravitz and directed by Gary Ross opens March 23, 2012.

Justin Timberlake headed to Richmond, VA this weekend to keep his word and attend The Instructor Battalion Marine Corps Birthday Ball with Corporal Kelsey DeSantis.

The 30 year-old In Time actor “had such a blast” he wrote on his blog it “turned out to be one of the most moving evenings I’ve ever had…”

“I knew I would have an evening that I wouldn’t forget… Something I could tell my friends about. What I didn’t know was how moved I would be by the whole experience.

I’ve always been very vocal about my support of our Armed Forces. I’ve always felt like they offered us the opportunity to live our lives freely without the fear that so many other nations have to endure still to this day. And, they do it without asking for anything in return. I had this very feeling walking into this dinner. So, to say I was stoked to be there would be more than accurate.”

Timberlake went on to praise Cpl De Santis and her friends.

“The evening wound down for me as, I had to catch a plane. But, I have to say that I had so much fun with Kelsey and her crew of friends. They were just really nice people… Classy Marines but, not without a great sense of humor. Real individuals but, not without a sense of community.

I said my goodbyes to them but, not before I got a chance to tell them how much the evening had meant to me. They made me feel so welcome to be there and I’ll never forget it.”

Justin finished his heartfelt post by thanking the Marines and De Santis for “being his hero.”

He seemed to truly have a great time and appreciate the sacrifices made by everyone who serves in the military.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 is less than a week away from opening and Robert Pattinson has done his share of talk shows leading up to it but one of his funniest appearances was on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on Friday.

Pattinson and Fallon had a suction cup bow and arrow duel for fun with RPattz coming out on top.

The duo playfully took aim at each other while wearing a clear boxy shield to protect their famous bods.

With three chances each, the 26 year-old went for the archery win and aimed for Fallon’s groin – Jimmy’s face is priceless.

He also talks about his hand and footprints in cement at the ceremony with costars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner Grauman’s Chinese Theater.

Sofia Vergara was all shimmery and sparkly at the 2011 Latin Grammy Awards in Las Vegas last week.   She walked the red carpet at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in a silver, strapless gown by Reem Acra.  (It really reminds me of the gorgeous dress Christina Hendricks wore to the Emmys this year.)   She accessorized with pieces from her own (incredibly affordable) collection for Kmart, Sofia by Sofia Vergara.    Overall a beautiful ensemble:  sexy, classy and elegant.
