Jessica Biel's Lilac Jumpsuit, Olivia Culpo's Sheer Perfection & More Best Dressed Stars of the Week
It's all in the details. Margot Robbie perfectly paired her velvet gown with a whimsical feathered jacket. Jessica Biel completed her pastel look with a lavender headband and Rachel Bilson added a touch of sparkle with gold dangling earrings.
An elegant or understated ensemble can be toned down or dressed up with the right amount of bling, a staple shoe or the perfect shade of lipstick. Or maybe, as was the case with Lisa Bonet, a stunning date like her new hubby, Jason Momoa, can make for some great arm candy. This week, accessories were among the staple pieces that added a fashion-forward punch to celebrities' outfits.
These stars -- and their handy stylists -- made all the correct choices and slayed the fashion game for the week of Nov. 12.

Khloe Kardashian and Kim Kardashian West appear to be sharing a closet -- or at least a stylist.
On Tuesday night, Khloe stepped out to support of her older sister at her fragrance launch in Los Angeles, California, and while Kim was the guest of honor, her pregnant sibling turned heads in her all-black ensemble.
Khloe, 33, decided to ditch the pants, and instead opted for fishnet stockings and a black bodysuit. She managed to hide whatever sign of a baby bump she may have by wearing a black blazer over the skimpy style, which she paired with black ankle boots and a gold-chained purse.

There aren’t that many films that make you take a serious look at the medium itself, and in that respect Mother! is some sort of accomplishment. Darren Aronofsky is no stranger to messing with the boundaries and potential of both film and storytelling, but letting pure daring run wild is a method that is bound to result in hits and misses. For every Black Swan, you’re going to get a Noah or The Fountain.
In Mother!, Mother (Jennifer Lawrence) lives in a house that she is rebuilding after it was destroyed by fire. It’s the house where Him (Javier Bardem) grew up, and Mother is just trying to make things nice so that the couple can have an idyllic life in the midst of their field of green. Him is a writer suffering from blank page syndrome, and when his fans show up he has trouble not succumbing to the attention,...

Almost exactly a month ago, I shared with you this stunning report:
"Lunch: A Star Wars Story- Harrison Ford Meets Alden Ehrenreich Face-to-Face"
And you know Hollywood just looooves sequels, so...here it comes:
Donald Glover and Billy Dee Williams were spotted yesterday having their own lunch, presumably to talk about the former inheriting the iconic role of the latter in Han Solo: A Star Wars Story! Yes, Glover is taking on the role of Lando Calrissian, a character Williams has been the custodian of for over 30 years, even voicing him in animated series and in The Lego Movie!
Here's the photo, tweeted out by a fan, of Glover and Williams having a moment at a restaurant in Los Feliz:

Richard Lester's A Hard Day's Night is one of the most influential movies of all time, pioneering a genre out of Beatlemania and inventing the language that has proliferated in music videos over the last 50 years. However, most modern music acts don't go down the Hard Day's Night/Spice World route in their cinematic tie-ins and concert documentaries (in 3D!) are more common than narrative features.
If we had to bet on any modern music act reviving the band movie as the Beatles had it, it would be the comedy group The Lonely Island, who first came to prominence through Saturday Night Live's Digital Shorts and have released a catalogue of catchy numbers with hilarious music videos. But for Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer, it would have been almost too easy to loosely string together a number of...

The Lonely Island crew send up the Biebers and 1Ds of this world with a sharp spoof popumentary
With this likable comedy, Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer, Aka Saturday Night Live’s the Lonely Island, parody the stage-managed promotional popumentaries favoured by the likes of One Direction and Justin Bieber. And the result is as close as we are going to get to a This Is Spinal Tap for the YouTube generation. While it’s not as deliriously funny as Tap, and the story arc is rather more conventional, the music, composed by the Lonely Island trio, is spot on.
Samberg stars as Conner4Real, a preening pop phenomenon who grew bigger than the boyband that spawned him. Of his former group, the Style Boyz, Owen, aka Kid Contact (Taccone), has been relegated to DJing for Conner while wearing an illuminated robot head, and Lawrence, aka Kid Brain (Schaffer), has retired to a farm,...

If you are excited by the prospect of a Lonely Island movie, I have good news for you. Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping is a Lonely Island movie in every way, packed with music and jokes. At 90 minutes, it moves fast, and it offers up some laser-sharp satire. If there’s any overall problem with the film, it is that they’ve made a very specific satire of a target that is so ridiculous it almost resists parody. It’s easy to just make the comparison to This Is Spinal Tap, the mockumentary that launched Rob Reiner’s career as a director, but Popstar is a reaction to a very different kind of film than Spinal Tap was. You have to go back and look at films like The Song Remains The Same or The Kids Are Alright to understand what the culture was that Spinal Tap targeted, while modern...

Last week saw the wide release of one of the year’s best documentaries, Weiner. Through very funny (and tragic at times) everything in this political profile is real (much to the title subject’s embarrassment). So, let’s turn the tables this week with a fictional comedy, shot and edited as though it’s a documentary. Yes, it’s another example of the hybrid made so popular by triple threat Christopher Guest (it’s almost as though he invented it), the “mock-umentary”. All the way back in 1984, Guest (with director Rob Reiner) torpedoed the serious film format with the look at a fictitious heavy metal band in This Is Spinal Tap (later he, as actor/writer/director, would take on 60’s folk music with A Mighty Wind). Happily a current group of satirists have decided that those music styles are not the only ones ripe for ridicule (rap got...

Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping takes aim at spoiled pop artists before we ever see a frame of footage (the title is a riff on the 2011 documentary Justin Bieber: Never Say Never), but this movie isn't only interested in raking singers over the coals: it's out to make fun of the entire music industry and the culture surrounding it. Celebrity romances, TMZ, social media, traditional news networks, and much more are skewered in this ridiculous — and often hilarious — examination of superstardom from The Lonely Island.
Andy Samberg plays Conner4Real, a former member of a cheesy '90s boy band musical trio known as the Style Boyz, which was comprised of Owen (Jorma Taccone) and Lawrence (Akiva Schaffer). The group broke up and Conner started a successful solo career, and we catch up with him as his second solo album debuts and instantly tanks. Conner is forced to deal with...

Popstars: Never Stop Never Stopping is a laugh out loud funny view at music superstardom. Filled with culturally relevant humor, it also serves as a witty critique of fame and celebrity perception.
The comedy centers on childhood friends and former members of the hip-hop group Style Boyz - Conner (Andy Samberg), Owen (Jorma Taccone) and Lawrence (Akiva Schaffer). Now at the center of a successful solo career, Conner is one of the biggest entertainers in the world. Driven by ego, he decides to film a documentary that he’s the focus of. But what the film ends up being about is his fall from the limelight.
At a recent New York press day for the film, the three leads spoke about putting the flick together.

It’s all about #brand loyalty for The Lonely Island in their first “official” movie, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, which stays true to the absurdist, bite-sized comedy that made their name. The musical comedy trio – comprised of Akiva Schaffer, Andy Samberg, and Jorma Taccone – has been around for over a decade, breaking out through their digital shorts on Saturday Night Live.
Taking clear inspiration from recent music “bio-films” like Katy Perry: Part of Me and Justin Bieber: Never Say Never, Popstar concerns a…pop star…named Conner4Real (Andy Samberg), who has gained worldwide success despite a general terrible-ness in his musical output. His critically-adored and culturally-loved origins come in the form of the boy band Style Boyz (Schaffer, Samberg and Taccone) who had a popular dance move (“The Donkey Roll”) along with a slew of hits. Cameos from the likes of Usher, Nas, Mariah Carey, and countless more (seriously,...

By way of musical mockumentary, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping delivers hilarity, stupidity, and a whole lot of other expected “-ity’s.” This is textbook SNL-alumn scripting. Direct parallels are drawn to Jon M. Chu’s Justin Bieber: Never Say Never, The Lonely Island drops some raunchy new material, and celebrity cameos fight for top-billing. We’re talking about a movie that – in one moment – captures a fish-costume-wearing Justin Timberlake shredding guitar riffs while Tim Meadows plays saxophone and Michael Bolton backs up Andy Samberg (who is rapping about his silly thoughts). Take that comment for Exactly what it is, and prepare for The Lonely Island’s latest bit of glorious absurdity.

"The enjoyment of a work of art, the acceptance of an irresistible illusion, constituting, to my sense, our highest experience of "luxury," the luxury is not greatest, by my consequent measure, when the work asks for as little attention as possible. It is greatest, it is delightfully, divinely great, when we feel the surface, like the thick ice of the skater's pond, bear without cracking the strongest pressure we throw on it. The sound of the crack one may recognise, but never surely to call it a luxury." —Henry James, from The Preface to The Wings of the Dove (1909) "[The critic’s] choice of best salami is a picture backed by studio build-up, agreement amongst his colleagues, a layout in Life mag (which makes it officially reasonable for an American award), and a list of ingredients that anyone’s unsophisticated aunt in Oakland can spot as comprising a distinguished film.

Weaver said that there is now "no escape" from social media, meaning that actors and other stars need to work out how to deal with the pressures it brings.
Speaking to The Sunday Times Style Magazine, she said: "It is something actors need to figure out how to combat, and it doesn't serve anyone to have privacy invaded to such an extent.
"[Jennifer] is brilliant. Leave her alone."
The Alien actress also said that she has no desire to see her idols naked, explaining that she would rather keep them on a "pedestal".

Kerry Washington’s InStyle cover is causing a "Scandal."
News: Kerry Washington Goes Makeup-Free for Her 'Allure' Cover?!
The Shondaland star wrote that she was "thrilled" to appear on the magazine’s March cover when she posted the image to Instagram, but the pics were soon met with backlash. Critics were upset that Washington’s image appeared to be over-altered in the photographs and that, most offensively, her skin had been lightened in an attempt to "white wash" the actress.

For the first time ever, gorgeous lady Jacqueline Fernandez will be seen in a double role in her upcoming film Roy. The actress plays the vivacious Ayesha and serene Tia as she romances the two stars of Bollywood Arjun Rampal and Ranbir Kapoor, respectively. Her character, Ayesha sports a bohemian look in the film for which Jacqueline has also designed one of the accessories, a string of chains she wears with her shorts in ‘Sooraj Dooba Hai’.
For her character, the actress has inked herself with three different tattoos – ‘love’ on her finger, a ‘key’ on her neck and a ‘third-eye’ on the back of her neck. In the recently launched song from Roy, Ayesha is seen wearing earrings which include white feathers and gold metal perfectly matching with her attire. What’s to note is that the character always pairs one long earring with one stud. She also adorns...

There have been many TV bios of Elvis Presley but Elvis, The Movie, the once-elusive 1979 feature starring Kurt Russell, was the first and is still the best. An 18-minute condensed version of Elvis The Movie on Super-8 sound film will be screened at Super-8 Marlon Brando Movie Madness on November 4th at The Way Out Club – (yes, we’re aware that Elvis, The Movie has nothing to do with Marlon Brando, but it’s the variety that makes it the madness!)
When Elvis died August 16 1978 at age 42, it sent shock waves around the world, comparable to the deaths of Princess Diana or Michael Jackson in later decades. A carnival atmosphere developed in Memphis as thousands of mourners gathered around the gates of Graceland and sales of Elvis’ music skyrocketed.

We're breaking down the fashion do's and don'ts of the week.
Hollywood’s most stylish stars can sometimes make poor stylistic choices so we’re looking at the do’s and don’ts of the latest red carpet trends.
Nicole Richie and Reese Witherspoon recently strutted down the red carpets wearing sheer lace, which can be very sultry and glamourous when styled correctly. Richie successfully pulled off a rocker chic look at the AOL Originals Fall Premiere event with a lace and rose print gown. This Blumarine design called for a touch of elegance and she delivered by pulling her hair back and keeping accessories to a minimum with a choker necklace. Reese Witherspoon's styling of a black Stella McCartney gown missed the mark at her premiere for Wild during the 58th BFI London Film Festival. There were a lot of contrasting elements in the design which may have worked if she had pushed the limits...

The year 2013 wasn’t without its awful dreck, unlistenable songs, and dreadfully earnest star sons trying their hand at acting. It was also the year where trumpeting your own horn (looking at you Mr Sajid Khan!) proved to an ironically bad choice, promotion tours became exhaustively boring, and albums that made our ears bleed. There were many terrible films and debuts that made us cringe, and shake our fists at the wasted potential. Here once again are the Bollywood Razzies of 2013.
Awful Actress – Pallavi Sharda
It was quite astonishing that Sharda managed to bodge up a dream debut with Ranbir Kapoor in Besharam. While the film was hyped to be a rollicking comedy, Sharda was picked out from the crop of Bollywood actresses for Abhinav Kashyap’s film away from Dabangg mania. Sharda looked completely uncomfortable in her big role, where the three Kapoors tried to salvage the crumbling story and bad writing.

Last spring, "The Hunger Games," based on the first book in a series of insanely popular young adult novels by Suzanne Collins, came out and pretty much dominated the pop-culture landscape for months on end. The tale of a futuristic game (wherein participants are chosen at random and forced to compete in a series of tournaments that leaves their fellow participants dead), it was hooky and edgy, the kind of socially conscious science fiction that is all but missing these days.
The film, directed by Gary Ross and starring a then lesser-known Jennifer Lawrence, was also really good. But, of course, things change, and Ross has been swapped for Francis Lawrence, a talented music video and film director who previously helmed "Constantine" and "I Am Legend." For "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire," based on Collins's second novel, the stakes are raised considerably and everything seems bigger, more complicated, and on the verge of chaos.

It's here!
We've heard the buzz about Jennifer Lawrence landing her very first Vogue cover for the coveted September issue, but now we can confirm that it exists and it's stunning. Thanks to the folks at Starworks, who leaked an image of the forthcoming cover via Instagram, we've gotten a glimpse of the breathtaking headshot of the actress, featuring Lawrence's cropped 'do.
"Finally! In all its 902-page glory," Starworks captioned the video. 902 pages? That almost rivals the record-breaking September 2012 issue, featuring Lady Gaga on the cover of the 4.5-pound, 916-page glossy. As a relative fashion newcomer, Lawrence should be pretty proud of this Vogue endorsement -- with all of those ad pages Vogue sells, the cover girl of the September issue is supposed to get the mag to fly off the shelves.
Luckily, we think Vogue has put its faith in the right woman. Check out a glimpse of...

Trying to remain incognito, Jennifer Lawrence kept her head down upon her arrival at Lax Airport on Tuesday (April 30).
The “Hunger Games” hottie donned a wide-brimmed hat with skinny jeans and large sunglasses as she quickly made her way past the awaiting paparazzi and over to security.
In the spirit of bikini season, Miss Lawrence recently revealed her de-bloating technique, explaining that she drinks dandelion tea to get rid of the excess water weight.
"It’s a brilliant diuretic that helps to prevent water retention and flush out toxins," her trainer Dalton Wong tells Life & Style.

Jennifer Lawrence has been laying low since her Best Actress Oscar win back in February -- and boy, have we missed her. We sure were glad to see her at the GLAAD Media Awards in Los Angeles on Saturday, but the actress' first red carpet appearance in months had us do a double-take.
J. Law has made a major change since we saw her last: She cut her hair! Lawrence's new short hairstyle features a sideswept, shaggy fringe fanning around her round face. She warms up the new 'do with honey-colored highlights that complement her tanned skin tone well. Wavy layers lend an unkempt feel for the cut that we find fitting for a low-maintenance gal like Lawrence.
Shortly after her Oscar win, the naturally blonde "Hunger Games" star crossed back over to the dark side, dyeing her hair brown for her role in the film's sequel. We appreciate...

Media scrums are an extended part of a journalist’s job, but the scrummage in the press room at Toifa was a fascinating look into the disorganized proceedings around this event. Given around 3 minutes each, tv channels and magazines like ourselves had to throw out one or three questions in this shortened time period. Thankfully, I managed to speak to the candid Manish Malhotra, who addressed his answers to all of us journalists in the room, and the shy Prabhu Deva, who enjoying the Vancouver scene around him and the lovely Aditi Rao Hydari.

Oscar's golden girl, Jennifer Lawrence, has gone brunette - almost jet black, in fact! The day after winning Best Actress for her role in Silver Linings Playbook, Lawrence, 22, was right back at work - emerging from a Beverly Hills salon with newly dyed black hair as she prepares to play Katniss Everdeen in reshoots for the next Hunger Games movie. The actress was dressed mostly in black, too - with a black cardigan and black skirt to go along with a gray T-shirt.

With such heavy pre-show coverage before the Academy Awards, media outlets typically bank on a few disastrous gowns and at least one or two “Omg” moments–à la The Dictator’s baby powder bomb–to keep things interesting while sweating it out on live television. But sometimes, allowing the stars to act naturally (what a concept!), along with a few well-timed introductions, is all the magic one red carpet telecast needs. That and Jennifer Lawrence‘s vivacious personality and knack for making awesome faces.
In addition to high-fiving Anne Hathaway and comparing their back bling, the award-winning J. Law was visited by a secret admirer during last night’s show–and her genuine look of “Wtf” says it all. Chalk it up to her love of keeping it real? “You did such a beautiful job, I don’t mean to crush your dress,” purrs the iconic voice of none other than Jack Nicholson,...

Jennifer Lawrence caused a style sensation at the 2013 SAG Awards, less so for her Dior navy gown but more for what it did when she went up to accept her trophy: riding up to expose a sheer layer in a quasi-wardrobe malfunction.
The moment was immediately tweeted, picked apart and turned into a series of GIFs. But Lawrence hadn't actually seen the moment on tape until Thursday night, when Piers Morgan walked her through the entire thing on CNN. Watching closely (and giggling the whole time), J-Law gives a hilarious play-by-play: "My pants fell off! Somebody trips me on the way!" Oh, honey, it's Ok.
Luckily the 22-year-old actress totally redeemed herself that same night by looking totally flawless on both CNN and an appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live." For the latter, Lawrence donned a form-fitting saffron Pucci sheath dress that kinda reminded us of Michelle Williams' 2006 Vera Wang Oscars gown.

When we decided to track the awards season fashions of Amanda Seyfried, Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, Anne Hathaway, Kerry Washington, Jessica Chastain, Eddie Redmayne and Emma Stone, we had no idea how much they’d fluctuate from gorgeous to meh to bleh and back again from week to week. As you can see in the graph above, these stars’ Style Points have been fluctuating madly. And since we’re basing this “race” on the opinions of esteemed experts — Glamour online style editor Nikki Ogunnaike, Yahoo! Entertainment’s New York bureau chief Breanne Heldman, MTV Style’s associate editor Maud Deitch — along with our own Ambika Muttoo and Sabrina Rojas Weiss, we don’t think this is just due to our own arbitrary moods. Last night’s SAG Awards saw an abrupt change of position as Amanda and Jennifer got their acts together and showed up in stunning (and matching!) navy gowns.

We were totally psyched when Jennifer Lawrence won a SAG Award for "Silver Linings Playbook" at the 2013 Screen Actors Guild Awards last night.
But we drew in a breath when she headed towards the stage, getting her lovely Dior Couture dress stuck on someone's chair. Then, when Lawrence stepped onto the stage holding her dress, the skirt seemed to separate around mid-thigh, revealing several inches of leg (0:50). Seconds later, when she stood on stage accepting her award, the dress seemed to be intact.
Cue the tweets did Jennifer Lawrence's dress just rip?
Not exactly. E! News reasons, "The original gown, which was revealed on the runway at a couture fashion show on Monday, showed clear distinctions that were connected by sheer lining. Lawrence's dress, however, had the lining hidden, so people couldn't really tell that it was a tiered gown." When Lawrence lifted the dress so as not to trip,...

Last week, a Lionsgate wish list of seven or eight directors included the names David Cronenberg, Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu and Alfonso Cuaron. (We also had a few suggestions of our own.)
Now, two more possibilities have stepped forward. The Playlist is reporting that Bennett Miller and Francis Lawrence are also in contention for the gig. Both directors have impressive résumés, but "Catching Fire" would be their most noteworthy credits to date.

X-men: First Class Blu-Ray20th Century Fox Home Entertainment2011/Rated PG-13/ Running Time 132 minsList Price: $34.99 - Available September 9, 2011Just a few years ago, the X-Men movie franchise was in serious trouble when the third feature in the series was poorly received by fans. That film seemed to bring the story of Professor X, Magneto and the mysterious Wolverine to a happy close, yet despite being a huge hit at the box-office, audiences appeared to be let down. Fingers were pointed at writers, a last minute replacement director and even a studio who already had a bad track record when it came to adapting Marvel comics stories for the silver screen. Two years ago, the most popular X-man of them all, Wolverine, was awarded a feature of his very own which explored his origin. It too was a heavily criticized box-office hit. Was this the end of X-Men stories on the silver screen?...

If you haven’t heard about Jennifer Lawrence by now, following her Oscar nominated performance in Winter’s Bone and her turn as Mystique in X-Men: First Class (out today!), don’t worry—you’ll have plenty of chances to catch up before The Hunger Games hits theaters next March. Lawrence beat out ingenues like Hailee Steinfeld and Chloe Moretz for the lead role of Katniss in Games, which many expect to take over Twilight‘s position as the must-see teen franchise after Edward & Bella bid goodbye. Almost as impressive? That hardly anyone seems to have noticed she’s in Mel Gibson‘s The Beaver. Sometimes its better not to be seen!

Some people might think that writing about the clothes worn by people at the Oscars before the Oscars actually happen might not exactly fulfil the ideal of journalism. Indeed, some might compare it to tales of certain film reviewers who write their reviews without having actually seen the movie because they're so unbelievably lazy they couldn't even be bothered to sit and watch a movie. One could also, say, cite the story of a foreign...
