STOP THE PRESSES! "Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston could reunite at this year's Toronto International Film Festival, when the exes are debuting their new flicks just two days apart."
Katie Holmes flew across the country from her Broadway rehearsals to attend husband Tom Cruise's Tropic Thunder premiere last night in LA, because no Cruise-related event is complete without Katie's dead eyes and silent cries for help. We're hoping Katie just ate more lettuce leaves than normal, because if that's a baby bump we should probably start stocking up on bottled water and flashlights.

We hope and pray to Xenu that Katie Holmes has not started a new trend of … whatever the hell is going on here. The baggy jeans rolled up with a nice blouse and scarf? We don't get it. Apparently, however, Amanda Peet does get it, because she was seen sporting a similar look on the red carpet of the Pineapple Express premiere.

Last night was the LA premiere of James Franco and Seth Rogen's weed-filled Pineapple Express, which attracted a vast array of celebrities. Nobody quite knows for sure how Adrianne Curry was invited, but those in attendance were graced with the presence of Kanye West and his odd shoes. You win some, you lose some.
Prepare to be bombarded with pictures after the jump. CONTINUED »
Which celebrity decided to get all gussied up for his movie premiere? CONTINUED »
The Dark Knight premiere in Barcelona yesterday marked Christian Bale's first public appearance since the media circus exploded over allegations he assaulted his mother and sister. And then, of course, there's PETA's unimportant claims that he also beats dogs. The great thing about Bale is that he doesn't act like a diva — although he bypassed reporters on the red carpet, he posed for lots of pictures and then spent an extended period of time signing autographs for all his fans. And we also love him because he's honest, like in a recent interview in which he opened up about his temper:
Everyone loses their shit on occasions, don’t they? Like, ‘Oh God, what demon possessed me to do that?’ … My wife gets to live with a variety of men. Some of them she likes, some of them she doesn’t. There are ones people like and others that they say, ‘Man we’re glad you’re finished with that project. You were an asshole.’
To be fair, we still don't believe he did anything horrible to his mother and sister over the weekend. He would have admitted it by now.

Last night a dreary and overcast New York City was treated to the premiere of The Dark Knight, which featured a black carpet. The stars of the movie and all the D-listers in attendance followed suit by dressing in the somber hue, except for a select few (Regis, we're looking at you).
Lots of pictures after the jump. CONTINUED »
The reviews for Hancock, which had its grand premiere yesterday in Hollywood, are here. And they’re not very good, unfortunately. According to various reviewers, despite the great cast and excellent concept, the movie starts to suck in the second half. Incidentally, these are almost the exact same reviews that I Am Legend got last December, and it ended up breaking box office records. So its doubtful that Will Smith is very worried.
After the jump, more premiere pics and some review excerpts.
Adam Sandler walked the red carpet of his new film, You Don't Mess With the Zohan, looking like a homeless man among a sea of designer duds. He's on something, no?

Last night's Sex and the City movie premiere wasn't all Manolos and butterflies — a large crowd of pathetic twenty-somethings was stuck outside Radio City Music Hall, despite possessing invitations to the event. Turns out the venue was oversold by 2,000 tickets. Whoops!
Despite this, look for all of the shunned guests to spend $11 on movie tickets this weekend after enjoying one too many cosmos with their girlfriends while on the prowl for a real-life Mr. Big. Feminism at its finest. CONTINUED »
It has descended upon us: The Sex and the City movie premiered last night in New York City, much to the delight of … Eli Manning? He was one of the guests in attendance, for reasons unknown, at the type of over-the-top shindig that should only be reserved for stuff like the second coming of Xenu.
The pictures (and there are many) are after the jump. CONTINUED »
Michelle Williams has taken a few months to mourn the passing of former partner Heath Ledger and decided to come out of hiding last night in Cannes. Although she did not star in Adoration, Michelle showed up for the premiere anyway, prompting reporters everywhere to declare the mourning period officially over. Because showing up at an event to be photographed obviously means she has completely moved on.

A very pregnant Angelina Jolie dragged Brad Pitt to the Cannes premiere of her new movie, The Changeling. Either Angie is about to pop or there are even more babies in there than we previously suspected.

The Sex and the City ladies are now taking Germany by storm, and thank goodness Sarah Jessica Parker decided against wearing another bird on her head. And is it just us, or is it odd that the movie still has yet to premiere in the city in which it's based?

Sex and the City: The Movie premiered in London yesterday and the reviews are in:
There may be a problem with a film when a narrator constantly tells you the meaning of what you have just seen, gift-wrapping each scene with a moral.
There may be a problem with characters who shop with such conviction while the audience looks up from the trough of a credit crunch.
There may be a problem with stretching Sex and the City into a two hour and twenty minute film - it can feel like a never ending dinner party: however pleasant the courses, after a while you can hardly eat another one.
None of these problems seemed apparent to the women who sat around me in the cinema in Leicester Square, laughing and weeping in quick succession. After a while I began to reason like one of the characters: maybe the problem was me.
Oh, so more of the same, then?
OMG, it's finally here! The Sex and the City movie premiered today in London, because that totally makes sense, what with the movie being based in New York City and all. As expected, Sarah Jessica Parker stole the spotlight — much to the other stars' dismay — with a ridiculous bird on top of her head.

Last night was the LA premiere of What Happens In Vegas, and Bai Ling decided it would be appropriate to show up in an outfit that might happen in your grandmother's attic.

TOTALLY NECESSARY "Mariah Carey was in full diva mode at the party for the premiere of her Tennessee at the Tribeca Film Festival's Cadillac Lounge at Tenjune on Saturday. On the walk-in, when she dropped her sunglasses on the red carpet, she quickly turned her back to the wall of photographers until she'd slipped them back on."
