WOODY MODEST ABOUT THREESOME "Woody Allen has denied rumours of racy sex scenes between Penelope Cruz and Scarlett Johansson in upcoming movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona. Johansson and Cruz appear in a steamy scene together as well as taking part in a threesome with Spanish actor Javier Bardem, according to reports. The director admits that the film does feature a lesbian clinch - but 'not in the sense that they're (the press) suggesting.' … 'There are sex scenes between all the characters in the movie: between the men and the women, and the women and the women. That is accurate, but I'd say there's probably not even 20 seconds of sex in the whole picture.'"
The chickens have come home to roost in the coop built by the American film industry's socially liberal politics. All four Oscars honoring acting went to foreigners last night: Javier Bardem, Tilda Swinton, Daniel Day-Lewis and Marion Cotillard—a Spaniard, a Brit, an Irishman and a Frenchie, respectively. Whaddya think about border security now, Sean Penn, ya pinko?
We hear word that some oddly popular event happened last night in Los Angeles. We're not really sure what it was all about, but we've got pictures of some of the self-congratulatory, insular men and women in attendance after the jump.

Vanity Fair is this month running yet another celebrity photo shoot and, guess what? For once, it's cool!
The concept was to recreate famous scenes from Alfred Hitchcock films and some of the resultant shots are beautiful. Finally, an idea good enough that it makes Annie Leibovitz and her dozen assistants seem interesting.
Like our gay uncle at Queerty, we really like Javier Bardem. Queerty likes him because he looks "scrumptious," but we like him because he's everything Zac Efron and Ryan Seacrest are not, and he reminds us that for every yin, there's a man.

Javier Bardem, star of the upcoming Coen brothers movie No Country for Old Men, is said to be dating fellow Spanish thespian Penelope Cruz.
Cruz showed up at the New York Film Festival this weekend with…Bardem, and the two were "very touchy-feely," our spy said. "They held hands when they thought no one was watching, and she kissed his cheek, and he put his arm around her." Saturday night, they showed up with Bono to the premiere party for "No Country for Old Men" at Gabriel's, sat in the back room and left together.
While still in its infancy, if Bardem and Cruz's relationship results in them having a child on American soil, expect anti-immigration fanatics to do nothing, under the "Rich and/or Beautiful" exemption.
