The Unmarried Charlize

Although she sports a ring on the right finger and calls beau Irish actor Stuart Townsend her husband, Charlize Theron makes it clear that marriage is not in her near future.

"I always knew that I didn't want to get married," the 32-year-old actress says. But having kids is another story. "I've always known that I'd be a mom from the time I was a little girl," she adds.

Rating: 3

All black is supposed to look chic, not stuffy. Underneath that pianist/matador’s jacket is what seems to be a beautiful Stella McCartney frock. And those are some really pretty flats, too.

My advice to Charlize: take it off! That jacket, I mean.

Sarah Michelle: Too Stuffed

Posted by Mean Critic
jsw_45925_gellarcelebutopia_122_482lo.jpg

"For a porn star, I didn't get much action. I filmed a love scene on Thanksgiving, and I had eaten all this turkey and mashed potatoes and was like, 'I seriously have to film a sex scene right now?' I was so tired from all the tryptophan (an amino acid in turkey that makes you sleepy) that I just wanted to sleep."  Sarah Michelle Gellar was too tired to perform a sex scene in her 2006 movie SOUTHLAND TALES - because she had just feasted on turkey.

The "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" actress plays a porn star in the movie, but was disappointed when she couldn't partake in an intimate scene with full gusto, because all she wanted to do was sleep.

The 30-year-old had binged on a huge Thanksgiving meal of turkey - which contains chemicals that make you lethargic - just before she was due to film the scene.

Rating: 3

Don't we look a little lazy in this black strapless number? This isn't the way to go specially when you are invited to a Superhero Fantasy themed Gala.

You can't be a superhero wearing something dull. They too have to be chic.

Rating: 3

A lot of people have been raving Emmy's black and white mermaidish Phi lace gown. The silhouette, the floral print and yes, she looks amazing. But too bad, even that wasn't enough for Emmy to sit in Anna Wintour's table at the Costume Gala. Not too tunning?

Posted by Mean Critic
jsw_karolina-kurkova-02.jpg

Karolina Kurkova

Nicknames: KK, Koka Kola or simply Kinka.

Trade mark: Long Blond Hair

Became famous in America when she appeared on the cover of Vogue in February 2001 at the tender age of 17

As a child, her height made her relatively awkward and gangly.

Won the Model of the Year title at the 2002 VH1/Vogue Fashion Awards

Rating: 3

Karolina went for the shimmer in her Vera Wang asymmetrical outfit, but I would have loved to see legs in this dress. A shorter version would have been awesome.

Kristin Cavallari a Movie Star?

Posted by justinemae
jsw_008118522.jpg

Kristin Cavallari’s getting her very own sex comedy.

The Laguna Beach babe is set to appear in an indie flick Wild Cherry alongside Rob Schneider and Rumer Willis.

According to Variety, the comedy is about a high school senior who plans to lose her virginity to her football-playing boyfriend only to find out that her man only wanted to sleep with her so he could score with the team’s “bang book.” The plot thickens when the gal and her pals plot revenge.

Rating: 3

Not that there is anything wrong with a strapless black dress, but Kristin Cavallari doesn’t look anything out of the ordinary in it. She could have upped the glam factor with cuter shoes, a better hairstyle or a nicer pose.

Kim’s Burping Blip

jsw_62342_celebutopia-kim_kardashian_walks_around_on_rodeo_drive_in_beverly_hills_with_a_video_camera-02_122_336lo.jpg

Kim Kardashian’s doing something good for humanity – and poking fun at herself while she’s at it.

In a new public service announcement for the cyclone-struck and politically unstable Burma, Kim is filmed as though she is getting ready to go on a benefit for a country she has never even heard of.

"Burping?" Kim asks her sister.

"Not burping," she's told. "Burma!"

"I was kidding," Kim says, posing in a full-length mirror while squeezing into a tight-fitting dress. "I wrote my whole thesis on Burma. It's a terrible situation over there." 

Rating: 3 

Even in a relatively conservative outfit, Kim still succeeds in showing off her assets. By cinching a belt around her waist, Kim highlights the body parts that the Kardashians are known for.

I would have preferred to keep this dress belt-free. But then again, I’m not a Kardashian.

How Molly Flies

Posted by Mean Critic
jsw_molly-sims-05.jpg

Molly Sims

Molly's Chinese Astrology sign is Ox - a dependable and solid person, who is a born leader, that can achieve great things, and believes in doing things right from the first time.

Molly's hair color is black. 

Molly has green eyes.

Molly originally wanted to be a lawyer. A friend make her send a portfolio to an agency, and she made it to be a model.

Molly used to be a professional swimmer.

When she was a child, Molly admired the actor Paul Newman.

Molly fears to fly. She won't get onto a plane unless stepping in with her right foot first, touching the plane with her right hand.

Rating: 3

Molly stood out at the Costume Gala not because she had the nicest dress but because she chose a very bold and catchy color. Her bright colored halter dress by Versace was definitely an eye catcher.

Scarlett Wants To Walk Down the Aisle

Posted by Mean Critic

Scarlett Johansson has always dreamed of becoming a bride, according to her close friend and designer Roland Mouret.

Mouret, who was photographed with the newly engaged actress on Monday, insists the 23-year-old has longed for years to marry and settle down.

He said: "It's something she's really wanted - to meet someone and get married. She's just such a great person and I'm so happy for her and wish her every happiness. She deserves it."

Although Johansson helped Mouret make a name for himself when she wore his coral gown to the 2005 Golden Globes, he is adamant he is not the designer selected to create a wedding dress for the bride-to-be: "No, no - it's not me!"

Johansson and 31-year-old Ryan Reynolds announced their engagement on Monday at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Gala in Manhattan.

Rating: 3

Scarlett attended the 2007 Met's Costume Gala wearing this strapless dress with stockings (!) and this year with a fantasy theme, she wears a corset bodice with tulle skirt. Maybe she wanted to be a ballerina. I hear Swan Lake has an opening.

Maggie: The Dark’s Knight

Posted by Mean Critic

Maggie Gyllenhaal has been snapped up to replace Toni Collette in an upcoming comedy from Sam Mendes.The as-yet-untitled picture from the American Beauty director tells of a young couple (John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph) who travel across the US in search of a place to call home.Collette had been attached to star as a bohemian college professor and friend of Krasinski's character but has been forced to withdraw due to a scheduling conflict.

According to Variety, Gyllenhaal has now been signed to take the role and will begin shooting in Connecticut next week. Gyllenhaal's joining of the project is not the first occasion on which she has been contracted to replace another actress. The Stranger Than Fiction star stepped in to Katie Holmes' shoes as attorney Rachel Dawes in upcoming Batman sequel the Dark Knight.

The character has recently been the subject of a viral marketing campaign, with a video leaked showing Rachel Dawes pledging her support for Gotham City politician Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) who is vying for the position of district attorney.

However, Gyllenhaal recently stressed she had no plans to mimic her predecessor in the role.

"I think she's a wonderful actress and I really admired the work that she did in the first Batman, but I don't think it would have worked if I tried to imitate her," she told SuperheroHype.com.

"I think the only way to do it is do it like myself."

Rating: 3

What's there to love in Maggie's Peter Som outfit to the Costume Gala: ruched bodice, the color purple, the uneven hem without the color blue of course. What's to hate: the oversize bow. Fantasy or no fantasy, this outfit is wearable.

Fergie’s a Bag Lady

Posted by justinemae
fergie1.jpg

Known for her fun and quirky fashion hits (and quite a few misses along the way), Fergie launches her latest designs of her newest bag line, Fergie for Kipling.

The designs are about my high school years," the 33-year-old singer tells OK! Magazine, "There’s tie-dye, there’s Jerry Garcia, it’s groovy. That’s when I was able to just go down to Venice Beach – go with a really big bag with all my stuff in it and just walk around and just people watch."

Rating: 3

Fergie looks pretty, but a little bit out-of-character in this very demure purple shift dress.

Those shoes were meant for the office, Fergie, not for shopping at Calvin Klein.

The Smart Jennifer

Posted by Mean Critic
jsw_jennifer_connelly.jpg

The hauntingly beautiful Jennifer Connelly has appeared in countless critically-acclaimed auteur films ("Requiem for a Dream," "A Beautiful Mind" and "Blood Diamond," just to name a few). She's even recently dabbled in modeling (or finally succumbed to the many designers that beg her to lend their lines her face). Connelly also attended Yale for two years, where she studied English, then transferred to Stanford to complete her Bachelor's degree. She is also fluent in French and Italian.

Rating: 3 

Not too bad having Cruella Deville as an inspiration for this sexy number but wearing it with black and white pumps was a little over the top.
