Scarlett Johansson stole the spotlight at the Iron Man 2 premiere in Los Angeles last night looking quite glamorous in a beautiful white dress and silver shoes.  She could have given Gwyneth Paltrow some fashion pointers. Shorts seem to be the latest thing to walk the red carpet in, which is fine as they probably cost a ton but I think the footwear Gwynny chose to go with the outfit do not work.  What do you think?

Mickey Rourke’s girlfriend Anastassija Makarenko looks stunning.  LOVE her shoes. The rest of the cast:  Robert Downey Jr., Don Cheadle, Sam Rockwell also attended as did Jennifer Grey, Adrien Brody, Olivia Munn, Samuel L. Jackson and others.

Mickey Rourke talked about preparation for his role in the movie included spending time in Russia’s Butyrka prison:

“I saw a lot there at the prison – and I got a lot more. I talked to a guy at Russia, in my hotel, who had just gotten out two weeks earlier – we spent a couple of hours together, and in those two hours he took his clothes off and showed me all the crazy tattoos he had.”

Okie dokie.

I wish there was a better picture with both of them looking at the camera, but clearly Ben Affleck is bent on whispering in his boo’s ear instead. 

BFF’s Matt Damon and Ben Affleck reunite for the 3^rd Annual Ante Up For Africa No Limit Texas Hold’em Tournament  that began yesterday afternoon in Las Vegas.  It’s nice to see these two together again and I’m going to point out the obvious, and what I know you’re thinking:  Matt Damon is looking mighty hot, yes?
