Jessica Chastain sees Ginger People!

23 Aug

Last night I had the pleasure of meeting one of Hollywood’s new “It Girls” at the premiere of “The Debt” at the Tribeca Grand Hotel! Some of you may recognize Jessica Chastain from “The Help” – she played the hilarious and endearing Celia Foote, bane of Hilly Holbrook’s existence. When a friend didn’t know who Jessica was last night I described her as the Jennifer Lawrence of this year; what Carey Mulligan was to 2010, etc.

When we met her my friend Brian who is obsessed with “The Help” gushed over her and how perfect she was and she was so excited to talk about playing Celia and even talked in Celia’s accent telling us she wished she could talk like that all the time! Then she asked me if I was a redhead and followed it up with, “You ARE a redhead! I love you!” This was awkward because as you can see I am not a redhead… but it was totally fine! Hopefully she stays as sweet as she was last night throughout her very quick rise to success as this year comes to a close and the 2012 awards season starts.

See pictures of Jessica Chatain and Helen Mirren arriving at the premiere last night on Just Jared!

Here is the latest trailer for “The Debt” which also co-stars hottie Sam Worthington and forever flawless Dame Helen Mirren and is in theaters on August 31st:

Throwback Thursday: Whoopi Goldberg!

19 Aug

Okay I forgot about Throwback Thursday yesterday… so we’re just going to ignore the date on this blog and pretend it’s Thursday for five minutes. Thanks.

FLASHBACK: Did you miss last weeks Throwback Thursday with Joshua Jackson?

I met Whoopi Goldberg during New York Fashion Week in February 2010 just after the Calvin Klein Women’s Collection show. Whoopi was a guest of Andre Leon Talley’s who I didn’t ask for a picture because he scares me. She was very nice but sort of awkward – it was obvious that the crowd made her nervous and I don’t think all the photographers who were hounding her helped. It’s a rare occasion that Whoopi walks a red carpet or attends a star-studded event these days as she likes to keep to herself and enjoy her private life outside of ‘The View’, so it was definitely exciting to see her in person!

When I first asked her for a picture she joked and said that I didn’t want a picture with her, that she was no one special… then some jerk walked right up to her, put his camera up and snapped a picture of himself next to her before walking away quickly. It was insane! She looked so surprised – he hadn’t even ASKED! So I made a joke about how at least I had asked first and she was like, ‘You know what? You’re right.  Come here.’ And voila – the picture above is my result!

Throwback Thursday: Joshua Jackson!

11 Aug

Every Thursday I will post a picture that I took either of or with a celebrity that is from what I like to call my “pre-web-site-era.”

Today’s throwback: JOSHUA JACKSON!

I had the honor of meeting Pacey Witter himself at the 2010 Fox Upfronts. I’m sure his show Fringe on FOX is awesome and all, but I have the uncontrollable urge to chant about ducks every time I see this photo…

Emma Stone @ ‘The Help’ Premiere

10 Aug

Oh my God, Emma. Why? It’s like she didn’t like the top of her dress so she covered it with a top… unfortunately it ruined her figure!

Thankfully her movie ‘The Help’ is absolutely fantastic and I very much enjoyed seeing the midnight screening last night! It bears repeating that Sissy Spacek undoubtedly steals the whole film.

2011 Teen Choice Awards: My Favorite Looks, Part 2!

8 Aug

You saw my top picks for the best dressed girls at the awards show last night, so it’s only fair I show you my favorite dressed dudes. Taylor Lautner (I’m aware that’s a given – I’m extremely biased when it comes to him!), Joe Jonas, and Cory Montieth were looking very handsome last night, though I’m not sure how Cory & Taylor dealt with the heat in those leather jackets!

2011 Teen Choice Awards: My Favorite Looks, Part 1!

8 Aug

Last night were the 2011 Teen Choice Awards and while the show was horrifically boring what with the lack of actual award presentations, mediocre performances, and a lot of Kaley Cuoco wasting our time, the fashion was fun! White seemed to be the choice color of the night, but there were also some bursts of color that I really enjoyed. Here are pictures of my top favorite dresses… Rachel Bilson, Selena Gomez, and Blake Lively!

My last night with the Backstreet Boys…

8 Aug

I spent the better part of this summer at NKOTBSB shows all over the country: Boston, New Jersey, Las Vegas, Hershey Park, and last but certainly not least, New York! Thanks to my friend June I was able to go to not one but TWO Backstreet Boy sound checks which also includes a quick meet and greet with a picture which was the best possible way to end our slew of concerts. I’m a die-hard NKOTB fan but I grew up in the era of BSB and both understand and appreciate the hype – plus they put on a damn good show, too!

Included in the pictures are our group picture with the guys, a quick shot of Nick and AJ reading the lyrics to “Poster Girl” while performing it for us during sound check, and a shot of AJ signing autographs before the show.

I will never forget the summer of NKOTBSB!

Bryce Dallas Howard @ Regis and Kelly!

5 Aug

For those of you who follow me or even my friend Brian on Twitter, you know that Bryce Dallas Howard is seated on a very high pedestal in our day to day lives. Bryce ranks up there with Oprah as far as we are concerned. In all fairness I was the last convert to the mission that is BDH – but I think now that I’ve met her there is no going back! She was extremely nice and also extremely pregnant. You can’t tell in this picture because Her Holy Flawlessness is exactly that – flawless!

Even though Bryce was promoting her upcoming film “The Help” which is released next Friday, I got the chance to tell her that I saw “50/50″ a few weeks ago and it was absolutely incredible. She seemed really excited about the film as well and I hope she makes it to the Toronto International Film Festival for it’s premiere next month! Check out the trailers for both “The Help” and “50/50″ below.

Alexander Skarsgard @ Regis and Kelly!

4 Aug

Yesterday I stopped off at Regis and Kelly on the way to work and got the chance to meet Alexander Skarasgard from True Blood! Even though I’ve met him before I was very surprised at how nice he was and how he made sure to stop for everyone who had waited while he was filming. Usually Regis and Kelly is kind of a shit-show so it was nice to see someone handle it so well and still manage to make everyone happy. I didn’t watch the show so I’m not sure if he was promoting True Blood or his new movie with James Marsden and Kate Bosworth “Straw Dogs” but the trailer is below if you want to check it out – looks creepy!

Anna Faris @ the ‘Crazy, Stupid, Love’ After Party!

4 Aug

Got the chance to meet Anna Faris for the first time a couple weeks ago at the ‘Crazy, Stupid, Love’ premiere after party that was held at Tao in NYC. She was very sweet making sure to stop for everyone and I loved her leopard ensemble!
