A dress with her name on it!  Better known as one‑half of Marchesa, British fashion designer Georgina Chapman was nothing less than elegant in her own label at the Time's 100 Most Influential People Gala held at the Lincoln Centre in NYC on April 25, 2012.  The dress is a layer of crystals worked into a lace-like pattern, the skirt adorned with a light layer of ostrich feathers, which appears to be from the Marchesa Spring 2012 Collection.  Although I'm surprised that Georgina's name wasn't on this year's Time 100 list, never mind.  She and design partner Keren Craig, who makes up the other half of the Marchesa are in a league of their own!

It was a two-way tie for best-dressed couple also at the Time's 100 Most Influential People Gala.  That honor goes to model/fashion designer Lauren Bush and hubby David Lauren and lawyer Alexi Ashe and beau, actor Seth Myers.  While David Lauren opted for a black double-breasted suit with white shirt and dark tie, his bride Lauren was the vision of a Roman statuesque beauty in a simple yet elegant white sleeveless gown featuring a crossing neckline.  No doubt, both donning the Ralph Lauren label.  Meanwhile, actor Seth Myers also donning a dark suit with matching tie and white shirt was accompanied by girlfriend, lawyer Alexi Ashe who opted for the red version of Romanesque elegance.  Hmm … I wonder.  Did you suppose both couples connected beforehand to synchronize match-happy looks?  Even the background matches.  Now that's what I call effortless co-ordination.

Performing at the 2012 Time's 100 Most Influential People Gala was Rihanna who rocked it in a two‑piece Stella McCartney Fall 2012 jacquard ensemble.  Rihanna shed her bad girl image for a gold metallic baby-doll strapless top accented with a deep red and blue bow and matching blue metallic pants.  This is quite a departure from the black leather and skin-tight outfits we're used to seeing Rihanna in.  It's also nice to see her hair back to its natural black and swept over into gentle waves.  And for all you Rihanna fans, the singer made the magazine's 2012 list, alongside Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Warren Buffet and the Duchess of Cambridge.  Now that's what I call keeping good company!

Proving that he's more than just a handsome vampire, Twilight actor, Kellan Lutz hit the red carpet at the Chanel Tribeca Film Festival Artists Dinner at the Odeon in NYC on April 24, 2012.  The 27-year-old hunk donned, what I'm guessing to be either a Dolce & Gabanna or Gucci two‑piece black suit with matching tie and white shirt.  The two-piece suit looks much better on Kellan than a three piece (top right), don't you think?  And for all you Kellan Lutz fans (and who isn't?), Kellan's latest film, Java Heat is scheduled for release this year.  In the film, Kellan plays a character named Jake who goes to Southeast Asia to fight terrorists.  What could be better than watching a handsome hunk fighting off evil?  Nothing.  See you at the box office!

Shining like the star she is, House's Odette Annable lit up the red carpet at the series' finale wrap party in Los Angeles at Cicada on April 20, 2012.  Odette was stunning in a retro gold metallic lace gown by David Meister with bateau neckline and three-quarter length sleeves.  The dress fit her like a glove.  To complete her look, Odette stylized with a gold Reiss 'Kaylin' clutch, simple diamond-drop style earrings and deep brown wavy tresses.  She does resemble The Duchess of Cambridge a bit, don't you think?  And although this may be the end of House, something tells me it definitely won't be the end of the red carpet for Odette!

Hollywood's newest on-screen lovers, Zac Efron and Taylor Schilling heat up the red carpet at the Germany premiere of their film The Lucky One in Berlin on April 25, 2012.  Looking every bit the leading lady, Taylor wore a high-neck black mini with zipper-like detail on the bodice and kept her hair simple and chic along with minimal diamond earrings and ruby red lips.  Although Taylor may have stolen the limelight at the event, nevertheless, Zac equally stepped out in style.  Steering clear of the traditional black, blue, or grey suiting, Zac opted for a maroon two-piece suit by George Clinton with black tie and white shirt.  Zac has come a long way from his young High School Musical days, quickly earning him a spot on the red carpet's best-dressed list.  And with maroon becoming a more popular and challenging colour in men's attire, I believe Zac just climbed a few spots higher on that list!

That's it for another week ladies and gentlemen.  Hope you enjoyed my picks.  Have a wonderful weekend and until next week, wishing you love, peace and happiness!

Twilight's Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene re-team for a story of “young love and the true meaning of sportsmanship and life” in a film called A Warrior’s Heart. It’s filled with every cliché from every “inspirational” sports drama you’ve ever seen, plus the added pathos of a father sent to war plus the troubled youth who gets into trouble until someone takes him  under their wing and straightens him out.  The first time I watched the trailer I laughed out loud when I wasn’t cringing. Then I thought, “maybe it’s a parody!”

Synopsis: In shock and denial over his Marine father's death in battle, star Lacrosse player Conor Sullivan, always a maverick and a hothead, starts acting out in self-destructive ways that have his mom, Claire, at her wit's end. But arduous training in a wilderness Lacrosse camp under the tutelage of his dad's old combat buddy, Sgt. Major Duke Wayne (?!?), opens Conor's eyes to the true meaning of maturity, sportsmanship and manhood…

If this thing were any good, they’d be promoting the hell out it on Twilight: Breaking Dawn – part 1’s coattails. Conversely, it is probably only getting any kind of release because of TBD-pt 1.

Co-starring Chord Overstreet, Adam Beach and Gabrielle Anwar (as Kellan Lutz’s MOM?!?  Way to make me feel ancient. But then if he’s supposed to be a teenager in High School, I suppose it’s possible.) A Warrior’s Heart gets a limited release and VOD December 2

GQ held yet another party in yet another city last night. The Australian GQ Man of the Year Awards was held on November 22 at the Sydney Opera House in (funnily enough) Sydney Australia . I think they should round up all of the “Men of the Year” from the various parts of the globe as well as their various designations, ie: Michael Fassbender was the mag’s “Breakout Man of the Year”, etc, and then have them compete pageant style for Ultimate GQ Man of the Year.  Just a thought.

You might well ask why I care about the Australian version of this boysy little ritual. The answer of course is the same for why I cared about the LA version or why I cared about the German version two years ago: Manly men all suited up and looking all “GQ”.  D’uh.  Anyway, one of the Australian honorees just happened to be one of our new ‘boyfriends’, Joel Edgerton. You remember Joel. He was one half of the battling brothers in Warrior, opposite Tom Hardy. He was recently the best thing about that The Thing remake and he’ll next be seen with Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan in fellow Aussie Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby, now filming right there in Sydney.

The Great Gatsby accounts for Edgerton’s look at this shindig. The retro ‘tache is for the film, but damn if he doesn’t look like the epitome of old-school movie star glamour with his hair slicked back (and darker than usual) in that single breasted, notch collared, satin lapel tux.  (Wonder whose it is. – it's a thing- I'm guessing Armani.) Yowza!

Enjoy the pics. I’ve included pics of some of the other attendees, like Alex O'Loughlin (yum) and venerable Aussie actor Jack Thompson, but most of them are Australian actors that I wouldn’t know if I fell over them, but they’re kinda cute. Oh and Kellan Lutz, who needs to step away from the spray tan. Had to include him just so no one would get mad that I didn’t.

Tarsem Singh’s Immortals premiered on Monday November 7 at LA’s Nokia Theater complete with red carpet and many pretty people. Stars Henry Cavill, Mickey Rourke, Luke Evans, Frieda Pinto, Kellan Lutz and Isabel Lucas all turned out.

Henry Cavill’s got the patented "Fassbender Shark Smile" goin’ on in some of these pics. He definitely looks like he wants to devour me…what? Yeah I know. Wishful thinking. He’s also trying for the "Gerard Butler 'I’m-Gonna-Make-Your-Clothes-Fall-Off-And-Nail-You-To-The-Floor' Look" in some of these too.  Henry's not there yet, but you can tell he's working on it. (Only fitting since as Theseus in Immortals he’s doppleganging for both Stelios and Leonidas from 300.)

Frieda Pinto looked gorgeous as usual. Isabel Lucas looked like she was channeling her inner Lindsey Lohan. I don’t get her. Mickey Rourke brought the crazy as well as his Russian Barbie Doll…I mean girlfriend. Kellan Lutz…I don’t get him either.  Luke Evans…I don’t know. There’s just something snake charmer-esque about him that oddly enough, I like.  I don’t think there’s any question, however, that Henry was the star of the show last night, as well as the movie. Immortals opens this Friday 11-11-11.

Immortals opens November 11 everywhere.

What’s with all of the divorcing and breaking up?  Hollywood is falling apart at the romantic seams!  The holidays are approaching and there are so many broken relationships.  Being alone during Christmas is the worst!

Kellan Lutz Takes His Pipes For A Workout [PHOTOS]

The latest breakup comes from Twilight‘s sexy beast, Kellan Lutz…. oh what I wouldn’t do that boy and 90210′s AnnaLynne McCord.  This beyond perfect looking couple have parted ways and this time it looks permanent.

“They just weren’t compatible, so they are taking a break,” the source says. “AnnaLynne seemed really happy over the weekend. I’m not sure Kellan was the right person for her.  AnnaLynne was getting cozy with model/actor Aaron O’Connell while at Veuve Clicquot’s Yelloween at LAVO in Las Vegas.  They were holding hands and flirting all night. The two are clearly a couple. They looked cute together.”

Kellan Lutz’s Triathalon For Life

What a waste of beautiful genes.  These two would have made the most gorgeous babies the world has seen.  They have a history of breaking up and getting back together.  Do you think they will stay apart this time?

Kellan Lutz is looking mighty FINE as he makes his way to the gym for a boxing class/lesson/workout.

Has Kellan always been this beefed up? Why haven’t I noticed before? Damn. Maybe it’s the boxing.  Maybe that is what is getting him into such finely tuned man meat deliciousness? I need to try boxing.  Not because I want arms like Kellan but clearly it’s working for him.

Click on the hotness to enlarge it.  He he he.

Last night the Much Music Video Awards were held outside in Toronto where Katy Perry showed up in an ice cream truck passing out much needed ice cream.  By passing out I mean throwing ice cream cones into the audience.

Adam Lambert showed up in a white Rolls Royce and looked quite dapper last night. Very classy!

Miley Cyrus co-hosted and had several wardrobe changes and I must say she looked lovely in her outfits.  They weren’t slutty or anything.  She saved that outfit for her performance.  Overall she did a good job. There was a bit of a snafu when she was introducing Drake.  She couldn’t read her teleprompter and Drake was having sound issues so they threw to a commercial and he performed when they returned.

Justin Bieber and rock group Hedley won 3 awards each. Adam Lambert won best Favourite International Video.  For a complete list of winners visit Much Music’s website.
