Friends With Benefits Premiere Hits New York

This red carpet looked like a bunch of fun! The Friends With Benefits premiere took place in New York City last night, at the Ziegfeld theatre and the whole cast looked like they were having a complete blast. Mila Kunis looked stunning in red Lanvin and clowned around with an equally gorgeous Emma Stone wore a contrast red-and-pink Giambattista Valli. Justin Timberlake always wears suits brilliantly and this time was no exception. Mila and he look like they have genuine chemistry, FYI. Jenna Elfman, also wore strapless white and can we ask how tall this woman is? We get high heels, but she just towers over everyone!

The premiere brought in a host of other famous faces too. Everyone from sexy Irina Shayk to Gayle King to Gossip Guy, Matthew Settle and bombshell starlet Emmanuelle Chirqui showed up. But one arrival has become possibly our favorite random guest of all time. Michael Bolton! Michael Bolton, you guys! Which means you totally have to take a look at our gallery.

Scarlett Johansson and Justin Timberlake Party Together, Manage Not To Flirt

Did the pairing just seemed too…obvious for them? Scarlett Johansson and Justin Timberlake were part of  party posse last night in NY according to Page Six, living it up at Kenmare until 3:30am. With Justin newly single after years with Jessica Biel, and Scarlett reeling from recent splits with ex-husband Ryan Reynolds and rebound Sean Penn, you might expect them to have been recreating their sweaty couplings from the “What Goes Around” video on the dance floor. But…you’d be wrong!

“It didn’t look particularly flirty,” said their witness. “Scarlett was dressed down and remained low-key with Justin and the group. At one point she went over to the deejay to request a song. Later, two girls joined them. They all left together around 3:30.” Whether Justin was too interested in the “two girls” option, or Scarlett spent the wee hours drunk texting Sean, we’re impressed these two were able to keep their unattached mitts off of each other. Maybe a couple can only be so mutually eligible.

Rumors We Love: Kanye West And Mary-Kate Olsen Hooking Up!

Let’s all do a resounding Happy (Belated) Birfday for Mr Kanye West! Mary-Kate Olsen was his present, if PerezHilton has his story right. The site reports that the rapper rang in his 34th year at the Submercer club in NYC on Wednesday night and wound up hooking up with Mary-Kate!

Both the sisters like their musicians, eh? Twin Ashley Olsen supposedly snagged Justin Timberlake on the friends with benefits train. We’re dying to know if these trysts actually happened but we have a strong feeling no one is actually going to admit to them. About Kanye and Mary-Kate, though. Both fashionistas. Both kinda weird. So, it does add up! But a word of advice to both dudes: do not mix them up! We still can’t tell them apart, so it’s tricky business.

Spike TV’s Annual Guys Choice Awards Brings Out The A-List

Spike TV’s Annual “Guys Choice Awards” Show almost got completely sidelined thanks to the MTV Movie Awards. Both shows happened on the weekend, but the Guys Choice was one day earlier. But never fear, we’ve got the pictures that matter. “Decade of Hotness” winner Jennifer Aniston receiving her award in a tiny Azzedine Alaia black dress on the stage, for one!

Newly 40 Mark Wahlberg also won both ”Guy of The Year” and the “Guy Movie of the Year”, while Keith Richards won the “Brass Balls” of the year (handed over to him by Robert de Niro no less)! Mila Kunis was on hand to receive the “Holy Grail of Hotness Award” from Justin Timberlake and Jim Carrey won “Funniest MF.” Sean Penn and Scarlett Johansson were there acting quite chummy, so the plot thickens! See what we mean? That’s a lot of A-List! Check out our gallery below for all the pictures.

Justin Timberlake And Ashley Olsen: Friends With Benefits?

Justin Timberlake‘s rep may say he’s “not romantically involved with anyone,” but ain’t nobody said anything about romance. The gossip world’s been buzzing since Timberlake and Ashley Olsen caught a play a week ago, and a source for People‘s source—while admitting “they were hanging out as a group”—is happy to add fuel to the fire. “I’m not sure if Ashley is serious with Justin or not,” says the insider. “They aren’t dating but they have hooked up recently.” Hiyo! Do you mean “hook up” as in “swapped numbers to discuss a potential fashion line collaboration” or “hook up” as in “Justin gave Ashley a sneak preview of scenes from his upcoming summer comedy, Friends With Benefits“? Because there’s a huuuuge difference.

Considering Timberlake would rather sing praises of exes like Jessica Biel and Britney Spears than compile a running list of the famous ladies he’s brought sexy back to since reclaiming bachelorhood, it’s possible this dalliance with Ashley will fall into the “maybe they did, maybe they didn’t” vortex along those alleged escapades  Olivia Wilde and Olivia Munn. But that gabby People source isn’t so sure. “Ashley is a relationship person, much more than [her sister, Mary-Kate], so we’ll see.” Um, no offense to Ashley, but her commitment to this potential relationship isn’t what we’re questioning.

Justin Timberlake Praises Britney, Jessica Biel In Vanity Fair

The gossip around Jessica Biel & Justin Timberlake’s split usually involved him being bored with the 4-year relationship, but he’s certainly being the gentleman about her in his new Vanity Fair interview. “She is the single-handedly most significant person in my life,” he confesses. “In my 30 years, she is the most special person, O.K.?…I don’t want to say much more, because I have to protect things that are dear to me—for instance, her.” She’s not the only former flame he’s got kind words for either. “I wish [Britney Spears] the best—that goes without saying. We haven’t spoken in 9 or 10 years.” He even blames their break-up on getting older…rather than her alleged affair with Wade Robson! Class act, this guy.

Timberlake doesn’t just talk about his former ladies and, ironically, the urge to raise a family (“as little as six months ago I wouldn’t have even thought about that, but now it feels like a closer planet orbiting around”). The actor (that’s right, actor!) recalls wild times with male buddies as well “Ryan [Gosling] and I used to steal golf carts and go driving in the middle of the park to get milk shakes [while filming MMC], and we never got in trouble for it. We thought we were big s—.” Though his talk of nudity in Friends With Benefits should soften the blow, JT still sounds like he’s in no rush to get back into music. “I wouldn’t say I’m not going to put out another [record]. I would say that would be a bad bet, if you were betting. But I could see myself only doing one more big tour.” Yes, but when? When?

Bradley Cooper Scores Another “Dinner Date”: Olivia Wilde!

Bradley Cooper needs to stop being such a dinner slut—gossipmongers can’t keep up with all the beautiful stars he dares to spend time in public with. According to Life & Style, Olivia Wilde has joined Jennifer Aniston and Jessica Biel in Brad’s Rolodex, with the pair getting close at the Hangover Part II premiere party and after last weekend’s SNL! “Olivia was Bradley’s date,” says their source about the Hangover jam. “He was always taking her hand or putting his hand on her lower back, it was really sweet. He took care of her all night.” What about Stacey from Cannes, though? Who took care of her?

If you’re thinking “hey, Justin Timberlake hosted SNL last week…and I thought he was dating Olivia Wilde!”…a) you sure know a lot of ridiculous gossip crap, and b) yeah, it sounds like that after-jam must have been quite the Biel-infuriating cuddle-fest. Hmm…Justin chasing Olivia, Bradley chasing Olivia…maybe Brad should have sang “3-Way (Golden Rule)” with JT on the show.

Celebrities Take In The Lakers Playoff At Staples Center

Unfortunately the Dallas Mavericks beat the L.A Lakers, but the very close game was witnessed by a number of stars who watched intently at Staples Center. Of them, we’ve already brought up birthday boy David Beckham celebrating with Gordon Ramsey. Seal was also there, along with his adorable daughter Leni, and was seen taking photographs of the on court action. We were also stoked to see a pregnant January Jones arrive at the game with her pal Jennifer Carpenter. Throw in Justin Timberlake, Joe Jonas, Eddie Murphy, Ricky Martin and Chord Overstreet and you have one seriously celebrity-heavy game! Check out the photographs from our gallery below.

Adults – And Some Kids – Pose On The Kids Choice Awards Orange Carpet

Thoughts of getting slimed at the Kids Choice Awards on Saturday in L.A. didn’t bother the likes of Kourtney Kardashian, Miley Cyrus or Selena Gomez. While Kourtney and Miley turned up in floor length gowns (Miss Cyrus’ even had a long train), Selena went cutesy in a white shorts-sheer top combo while posing with Cory Montieth. Nick Cannon went the white route as well, accessorizing with a pair of large white headphones.

Looking a tad more silly was Josh Duhamel who put on a purple bow tie that matched his shades. The Hilton sisters looked equally demure in shades of beige and white, and we can’t even describe what Willow Smith had on. Two words: gold lurex. Take a look at the list of Kids’s Choice Awards winners if you like, but we think looking at the photos in our gallery below will be a lot more fun! Taylor Momsen actually covered up… you can’t miss that. [Photos: Getty Images]

7 Reasons Jessica Biel And Justin Timberlake Split Up

Considering the constant rumors about Justin Timberlake banging everyone from Olivia Munn to Rihanna, you’d be forgiven for assuming his raging libido was the reason for his recent split with long-suffering/boring girlfriend Jessica Biel—Us Magazine sure does, claiming JT has tried to drop Jessica for years. However, the saints at People deny Justin cheated—and it wasn’t a matter of commitment either! “She wasn’t even thinking about marriage,” says their source. “That didn’t play a part in their breakup at all.” So what did? Here are 7 theories that People might be more comfortable with:

  • Justin’s refusal to sleep with Munn, Rihanna and Mila Kunis—plus hundreds if not thousands of willing unknowns—was starting to creep Jessica out.
  • As a favor to his desperate fanbase, Jessica decided to give Justin inspiration for a new album.
  • Justin was pretty sick of having to see every Jessica Biel movie.
