Scarlett Johansson wasted no time in debuting her engagement ring from fiancé Ryan Reynolds at last night’s Costume Institute Gala at NYC’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Pretty much every celebrity you can imagine was in attendance (except for Reynolds), and 95 percent of the wardrobe choices made our heart cry.

No matter what you heard from your kindergarten teacher, sometimes you can judge a book by its cover. And when that cover features Sharon Stone with a bad dye job, you can rest assured that that’s going to be a bad book. After not having read it, learning that you were also able to avoid Jimmy Fallon and Tom Arnold is just a bonus.
More under this.

The 2007 Food Bank of New York Can-Do Awards were held last night in New York. In attendance were David Bowie, Iman, Michael Stipe, co-chair Mario Batali, Patti Smith, Helena Christensen and Kate Bosworth.
This year’s honorees included U2 guitarist The Edge and Jimmy Fallon, for their dedication to helping end hunger in New York City. Later, the bevy of aged models in the audience were all lauded with “Lifetime Achievement in Suppression” awards, honoring those New Yorkers whose strict abstinence in the face of food meant more for the homeless.
Congrats, all!
PS Can someone tell Batali to cool it with the butter and olive oil? He’s my favorite, and if we goes from heart failure we’re stuck with Paula Deen and Rachael Ray.
PPS It looks like The Edge continues to take coping with baldness tips from Britney Spears. He’s effectively ruined his suit with a goddamn “formal beanie” that makes him look like a middle aged “punk” at prom.

Jimmy Fallon, fan of white tops and star of Pepsi commercials that sell Parker Posey better than they sell soda, is perhaps being slated to take over the late night hosting gig that will become vacant once Conan O’Brien leaves to fill Jay Leno’s spot.
Executives aware of the negotiations said NBC had been in talks with Mr. Fallon and his representatives for a deal that would make his television services exclusive to the network. One of those executives, who did not want to be identified because the deal has not yet been signed, said the deal could include a crack at the “Late Night” host role, though it was by no means guaranteed.
Can’t say I’m a fan of his particular brand of acoustic guitar-driven comedy, but I do know that NBC could do worse. I also know that, if this deal works out, NBC will constantly win the ratings war with the naive-young-girls-who-love-”indie”-dudes demographic. Too bad they can’t stay up ’til 12:35.
