"QAccording to Life & Style, the Sunday night date was strictly platonic. A source told the publication that the 30-year-old actor and the singer, who currently is a part of the duo Jenny & Johnny, went to the fete as friends. The source further added, "Jake and Jenny haven't dated for years. They're still friends, and they went as friends."

It was said that there was no chance that Jake might try to rekindle romance with the former child actress since she is still dating musician Johnathan Rice. "Jenny and Johnny [musician Johnathan Rice] have been together a long time", the source said. "They just released a record together in the summer. They haven't broken up."

'Elektra Luxx' Official Trailer


Recently retired from the adult film industry, superstar Elektra Luxx (Carla Gugino) is pregnant with the child of late rock star Nick Chapel. She is trying to make ends meet by teaching a community college sex education class aimed at housewives when a figure from her past, flight attendant Cora (Marley Shelton), approaches her with a proposition. In exchange for the (stolen) lyrics to Nick Chapel's last record, all of which is about Elektra, Cora needs Elektra to seduce her fiancee. Elektra reluctantly agrees to do this favor, setting in motion a series of events which will see her come face to face with detectives, sex bloggers, emotionally unstable neighbors and the Virgin Mary herself as she wrestles with the prospect of motherhood and tries to become a person of substance.

Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue (with Jake Gyllenhaal, Olivia Wilde, etc.)

Ryan Reynolds and Jake Gyllenhaal in Vanity Fair: 2011 Hollywood, March 2011 Issue

“We wanted to evoke the glamour of 1930s Shanghai, an era of smoky, alluring elegance,” said VF fashion and style director Jessica Diehl. “We had the gentlemen looking dashing in black tie, whilst the ladies were radiant in spring’s gowns - from Gucci to Yves Saint Laurent - and glittering with diamonds from Chanel and other arbiters of glamour.”

Olivia Wilde & Norman Jean Roy Behind The Scenes of the 2011 Hollywood Issue Vanity Fair Photoshoot

Wilde, indeed!
"Olivia Wilde stands out among the dozen or so A-list up-and-comers on the cover of Vanity Fair's 17th annual Hollywood issue.
Alongside such stars as Jake Gyllenhaal, Anne Hathaway, Jennifer Lawrence, Ryan Reynolds and others, the sexy Tron actress, 26, wears a truly revealing gown -- with just two thin black bands of fabric covering up her breasts.
(Wilde is flanked by actors Anthony Mackie of The Adjustment Bureau and The Social Network's Jesse Eisenberg on her left.)
Wilde made sartorial waves last year for the skintight catsuit she wore in Tron.
"My costume is actually the toughest, most bada*s thing I've ever seen", she told Playboy. How tight was the futuristic getup? "It would be difficult to be a stripper in that suit because it's almost impossible to get it off...It would be a three-hour striptease and you’d need at least five assistants onstage with you".

Some of my favorite actors are in this Vanity Fair cover picture: Jake Gyllenhaal, Olivia Wilde, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jesse Eisenberg, James Franco, and I haven't missed the ad on the right referring to a story with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall!

Natalie Portman thinks Jake Gyllenhaal is our generation's Cary Grant

"Natalie Portman has finally responded to Jake Gyllenhaal recently calling her the Audrey Hepburn of our generation at an awards show earlier this month.

"Well, he’s the Cary Grant of our generation", Natalie told Access Hollywood’s Shaun Robinson on Sunday at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, referring to Jake’s similarities to the legendary late actor, who starred in such films as 1955’s Hitchcock classic “To Catch A Thief” and 1944’s “None But The Lonely Heart,” for which he received an Oscar nomination.
“He’s so charismatic”, Natalie continued of Jake. “And so dapper and smart. He’s wonderful.”
While Natalie had compliments for Jake on Sunday night, she herself received yet more praise from her peers in the form of the SAG Award for Outstanding Actress, for her role as tortured ballerina Nina in “Black Swan.”

The event was another happy moment for the celebrated actress, but being pregnant with her first child meant she had to plan a few things out – like keeping food close by.
“My manager has my snacks. That’s the most important thing”, she laughed. “[I have] like cookies and apples slices and stuff like that ‘cause they never feed you at these things so… you know, babies gotta eat.” Source: www.accesshollywood.com

Robert Pattinson: 'Kristen Stewart is a natural vampire', Vogue outtakes

"As "The Twilight Saga" comes to a close, fans will finally get a chance to see Kristen Stewart's Bella transform into a vampire in "Breaking Dawn". Her onscreen husband, Robert Pattinson, admits that seeing Stewart hang out onset as one of the undead seems to be a natural thing for the actress.
"It's like she wanted to do it the entire time," he told MTV News over the weekend. "It's really funny, it's like a completely different environment onset when she's a vampire and when she's not. I think she's going to do it really well."
Fans are not only excited to see Stewart as a vampire, they're also stoked to see all the action go down in the epic "Breaking Dawn" battle scene, which Pattinson explained has been a bit of a daunting process to shoot.

"There's like a 27-minute sequence in the final sequence, and it takes forever to shoot," he said. "There's about 75 people in it. Being on a piece of fake snow surrounded by green screen for like a month, it's driving me absolutely insane."
It will be some time before the films hit theaters, but fans have already gotten the chance to see Bella and Edward in bed together.
"I love how they release that for the first one", he said sarcastically about the honeymoon sneak peek photo featuring the pair naked in bed together. "They just give it all away."It's always awkward [doing a sex scene], in a way, doing it with anybody", he admitted. "But at the same time ... it really depends on how it's staged and stuff. It's like doing Twister". Source: www.mtv.com
