Celebrity: May 2010 Archives

Rihanna's new video, for Rockstar 101, is out now. The video, in which the young musician impersonates a) Slash, b) Anna Wintour, c) a train conductor, and d) a human harp, has been deemed by some as a tiny bit controversial. What do you guys think? Does the video live up to the hype?
Screen shot 2010-05-14 at 12.23.07 AM.png It's the moment you've all been waiting for: the bloodsucking teen heartthrobs of that Twilight movie were finally on Oprah. It was everything you could have asked for and more (mostly): Robert Pattinson went door to door inviting stunned teenagers (not to mention completely insane parents) to invite them to the show. Taylor Lautner went to a sorority house comprised of girls so obsessed with the movie that they have an entire room in their house dedicated to it. Kristen Stewart invited a superfan onstage and gave her the ring she wears in the movie. 

Check out a clip of the show:

After what has felt like an eternity of speculation regarding the all-but-confirmed romance regarding Twilight stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, Oprah -- the one and only -- has finally gotten the two to come clean. The duo recently filmed an episode of the show with the media mogul, who allegedly promised to play softball on air in re: their relationship status, if the two would, in exchange, give her the real  gossip. Of course, no one says no to Oprah: 

"Oprah agreed beforehand she wouldn't be too hard on [Rob and Kristen] if they told her what was really going on," said an alleged source, who was at the taping of the episode. "Both Rob and Kristen's people and [film studio] Summit then confirmed ahead of time [Rob and Kristen] are together and are dating. One hundred percent."

The episode, in which presumably no information is revealed whatsoever, will air on May 13.

Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus and Carrie Underwood are just three country stars to have recently signed on for the Nashville Rising benefit concert for flood recovery in the storm-ridden region. The show, which will take place at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena on June 22, was organized by Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, and the proceeds will go to the Community Foundation, which services the Middle Tennessee region. This comes after last week, when Swift donated $500,000 to the cause.

Tickets for the event will go on sale to the public on Friday, May 14th at 11 a.m. ET at Ticketmaster.com. Prices will range from $25 to $75, and ticket auctions on premium seats and VIP packages will also be available. Visit www.nashvillerising.org for more details.

Kristen Stewart, the world's favorite tortured vampire-lover, appeared on the cover of the June issue of Elle magazine -- and the 20-year-old actress opened up to the magazine about her dread of the paparazzi, and the difficulty of having to fight tooth and nail for any modicum of privacy. "They're vicious," she said in the article, of the photographers who follow her every move. "They're mean. They're like thugs. I don't event want to drive around by myself anymore. It's f---ing dangerous." She says that fans' behavior can border on stalkerish: "Somebody knocked on my hotel room door and asked for a light, then said that they were a big fan," she said. "I was like, 'Do you really need me to light your cigarette? How do you know what room I'm in?' I can't be by myself, and I like being by myself."

One thing Stewart wouldn't talk about, however, was her much-speculated-upon relationship with one Robert Pattinson. "I would never cheapen my relationships by talking about them," she said. "People say, 'Just say who you're dating. Then people will stop being so ravenous about it.' It's like, No they won't! They'll ask for specifics."

Smart girl. 
Last night, the fashion world (plus more than its fair share of celebrities) ventured out in their fanciest, craziest, most eye-catching outfits, to brave the cameras at the annual Met Costume Institute Ball -- aka, the fashion crowd's version of the prom. The caliber of the outfits, quite obviously, varied drastically. After all, playing it safe at the Met Ball is frowned upon by the elite ranks of the fashion crowd -- and so, while the highs were high, the lows were...well, you'll see. Take a look at our roundup of the great, the not-so-hot, and the outright questionable ensembles of the night. 

Sarah Jessica Parker

SJP walks fashion's genius-debacle line on a regular basis. Here, though, she kills it. 

Naomi Watts

It is the rare actress who can manage a long, silky dress with an enormous bow on the shoulder. Naomi Watts, however, has managed to pull it off beautifully here. Also: great shoes.  

Emma Watson

Girl isn't a Chanel muse for no reason. It's not every teenage girl who can pull off a long white gown! 

Anne Hathaway

This dress is normally a little princessy for my taste. But oh! It's Anne Hathaway. Princess-y is forever appropriate. 

Nicole Ritchie

Nicole Ritchie basically rotates between variations on the exact same outfit, but hey. It's a really good outfit. Should be a lesson for us all. 

January Jones

I have mixed feelings about this one. What do you guys think: Yay or nay?

Kirsten Dunst

Oh hi, Marie Antoinette! You're back! I missed you! (Really -- where is Kiki Dunst hiding these days? And... can I see those crazy shoes up close?) 

Kristen Stewart

Takes Vampire fashion to a whole new place.

And finally....

Tina Fey?

Is it you? Are you really wearing a catsuit?
