ZELLWEGER SHARES OLD MEDICAL HISTORY "Renee Zellweger is speaking out about a breast cancer scare she had years ago. During a self examination in 1996, she tells Self magazine that she found two small lumps in her right breast and got them checked out. Zellweger later learned she had fibroadenomas (benign breast tumours)."
There are two sides to all celebrities: The squeaky-clean images forced upon the public by PR reps and their actual personalities. To provide you with a glimpse into the real Hollywood characters are Mollygood’s very own readers, telling tales of celebrity encounters big and small. Up this week: Reader Caitlin's run-in with Renee Zellweger. CONTINUED »
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.
Renee Zellweger, whose marriage to country star Kenny Chesney fizzled amid rumors that he is gay, has apparently not learned her lesson. Here she is describing to Harper's Bazaar a perfect night:
“I’m not a big scene girl,” she says of the celeb pack. “If I see the scene once a year, that’s more than plenty.” She describes a perfect night in: “Anderson Cooper would probably be involved at some juncture.”
That certainly would be…informative, Renee.
After the jump, some scary-ass birdhouse Zellweger built.

What do you do if you're a recently divorced multimillionaire whose last wife tried to hustle you like she were a common card shark? You somehow find a seemingly more unstable woman with whom to start a relationship, of course!
Paul McCartney and Renee Zellweger grow closer still. Having had dinner last week at Sag Harbor's American Hotel, the former Beatle and the Oscar winner looked "very cozy" at the party Jon Bon Jovi threw in East Hampton Saturday, a spy tells us. "They chatted through much of the evening and shared one of the outdoor day beds where people lounged on the lawn after dinner."
Could somebody relay the message to this guy that, along with love, one also needs a modicum of judiciousness and self control?

Seriously, did I miss something or has Renee Zellweger spent the past three years where I've had no idea what happened to her working out? Don't get me wrong, her body looks smoking hot (and she's just thrilled as ever), but those shoulders. She, uh, could probably beat many people in a push-up contest.

Renee Zellweger really took the tussled look to a whole new level at this Miss Potter press conference. Yeah, this is less windswept and more how the hell did that vagrant lady get a microphone?
Lighten up, ladies! No one forced you to attend these events. Well, I guess Renee kind of had to attend the premiere of her own movie, Miss Potter. But you, Ellen Pomp-and-Circumstance, you even got to wear your signature longer sleeves under shorter sleeves look and you can't crack a smile? Weak.
P.S. Am I really late to the game in thinking that these two look alike? Is this common knowledge?

Some other time George and Renee were in the same room.
Rumors regarding George Clooney are especially fun because they're so rare. So when one comes along, especially as tame as this one, I must snatch it up like a precious little jewel. Even though Renee Zellwegger kind of terrifies me (have you seen Nurse Betty? Talk about Black Pit of Doom Eyes). Ted Casablana's The Awful Truth reports about the former couples reunion at a wedding this weekend:
However, even though George came alone, he nevertheless was dimply 'n' enterprising, as he found some right-on female company in fellow guest Renée Zellweger, who wore a black wrap dress. Gotta say, R.Z. is looking less frazzled than during her right-off-Kenny Chesney period. Seems to have calmed down a tad in the red-cheeked department–know what I mean?
Regardless, the former flames played it low key and took 45 minutes before even saying hi to each other. But then they started a chitchat session that was def worthy of reddening up anybody's cheeks, I'm tellin' ya.
And once that get-reacquainted session was outta the way, the twosome remained together the rest of the night, choosing to sit alone and chat instead of cuttin' the rug with other dancing guests, reported said dancers. Desk Fluted, indeed, gushed that G&R sure looked cozy and that Renée was smiling and acting mucho coy during their extended conversation/flirtfest.
