The breezy blonde can’t help but look adorable all the time, but full marks for adding chic cred with this sparkly, textured, emerald-green number worn at the U.K. premiere of her new film This Means War. That bright smile makes her look as delicious as a peanut butter cup! Speaking of delicious — check out her co-stars Chris Pine and Tom Hardy. Because some people get to wear fabulous dresses and date hot men (onscreen) for a living. No offense, ~~Mr. Reese~~ Jim Toth, but your wife is livin’ it large. Although she’s tiny. Seriously, look at her next to Tom and Chris. She looks minuscule. And makes us want to sing Pocketful of Sunshine or something.

Akira Searches For A-List Leads, Changes Pretty Much Everything About Akira

Ah Hollywood: you give with one hand, take with the other. Reportedly Warner Bros is looking at Robert Pattinson, Andrew Garfield or James McAvoy for Akira‘s male lead Tetsuo. For the futuristic sci-fi film’s co-star Kaneda, scripts have been sent to Garrett Hedlund, Michael Fassbender, Chris Pine, Justin Timberlake and Joaquin Phoenix. The film is due out in 2013, and will be reportedly split into two parts. Given the amount of sweet biker gang moves and writhing protoplasm in the 1988 animated version of Akira, you’d think this movie would be primed for a mega-success. But since this is Hollywood, you know can’t do something great without messing it up in some profound way.

The most conspicuous theme in the announced casting choices (besides beautiful dudes with a layer of stuble) is the apparent lack of Asian or Asian-American actors in the Akira remake so far, a choice which seems pretty odd considering how extremely Japanese the original story is. The movie is based off a Japanese manga first published in 1982, and takes place in a futuristic Neo-Tokyo in 2019. However, it looks like the new version is set in New Manhattan and, despite keeping the Japanese names, doesn’t seem too concerned with actually having Japanese characters. If you recall, similar issues came up around the casting of white actors in The Last Airbender and Prince Of Persia last year. Call us crazy, but we’re pretty sure there are plenty of super hot Asian-Americans actors who are dying for roles like these. No offense, Pattinson; you know we love you in our way.

What’s Classier? Jasmine Waltz’s Dating Record Or Her Street Brawl With Lindsay Lohan

jasmine-waltz

That’s a trick question! They are both as classy as fine wine served out of a box, or a string quartet conducted by Coco. Following an excruciatingly personal interview with Howard Stern this morning about his separation from wife Courteney Cox Arquette, David Arquette’s one-night stand Jasmine Waltz (well, okay, maybe two nights) is helping him down the slippery slope to public self-destruction with her long list of Hollywood exes. In addition to the apologetic Arquette, Waltz has dated, in ascending order of lameness, Chris Pine, Jess McCartney, Rod Stewart’s son Sean, and Ryan Seacrest. Normally we’d give a pass to anyone whose had their sheets ruined by Seacrest’s spray-tan sweat, but our allegiance to Monica…um, we mean Courteney runs too deep.

Not only has she taken most of the B-List for a test-drive, but reportedly Waltz also punched Lindsay Lohan this summer while working at nightclub Voyeur. Just to be clear: Waltz was on the clock when she may or may not have decked LiLo, which she denies happened. “All I have to say is that disturbed little train wreck is delusional,”, Jasmine claimed at the time, as only another train wreck can. So is Waltz a villain, or just a celebrity gold digger that dug on the wrong man? Did David Arquette really not know all of this was going to blow up in his face? So many questions remain, though the question “Why exactly did Courteney leave?” seems pretty much been answered.

After her romance with Star Trek‘s Chris Pine reportedly fizzled out, Audrina Patridge found an old boyfriend and went back for seconds.

The Hills star and her ex, Australian BMX rider Corey Bohan, were reportedly snuggled up and swapping spit at Las Vegas’ Tao Beach over the weekend. They were “by each other’s side all day and they were sneaking kisses. He had his arm around her in their cabana and they definitely seemed together,” a source says.
