Well, this is good news. Kate Winslet is often razzed for her curvy body and weight issues, but now who’s got the last laugh?
According to UK’s Daily Mail, Winslet’s figure tops the most desirable celeb bodies list, followed by Halle Berry and Kelly Brook. See a pattern here? They’re all not exactly stick-thin (thank goodness).
On the other hand, skinny-minny stars like Victoria Beckham and Kate Moss made the very bottom of the list.
The poll quizzed 2,000 women aged 18 or over, and Winslet scored 16 percent of the votes. Moss and Price came in dead last …read more

The always adorable Hollywood couple Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn celebrated the holidays with their clan in Aspen this past week. Kate Hudson is in theaters right now starring in “Nine,” while Goldie Hawn’s next project is “Ashes to Ashes,” which she’s writing, directing and also starring in, along with Kurt Russell.
The film, scheduled for a 2010 release, follows a New Yorker who travels to India to bury her late husband’s ashes.
Goldie may be adorable, but so is the rest of this clan!
Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell (no idea what that thing is he’s wearing – a bullet-proof vest?):

In the December issue of Men’s Journal, Alec Baldwin says he’s lost interest in acting, considers his film career a failure, and will likely quit the business by 2012.
It’s interesting that he’s saying this now, with a hit TV show (“30 Rock”), a big moving coming out in a few weeks (“It’s Complicated”), and a gig co-hosting the Oscars with Steve Martin.
I mean, it’s sort of a slap in the face to his fans, isn’t it? If he doesn’t have any interest in acting anymore, then why is he still doing it? There are probably other things …read more

It shouldn’t be news when a celebrity leaves a particular religion, but Scientology is always fascinating to me, as is the fact that writer-director Paul Haggis (pictured, with wife Deborah Rennard) has left the Church of Scientology.
According to Showbiz411, Haggis wrote a letter explaining his decision to Tommy Davis, the celebrity wrangler for Scientology and the son of Scientologist actress Anne Archer.
Two things played into Haggis’ decision to leave the church: Scientology’s backing of Proposition 8 in California banning gay marriage (quite the move, considering they’re always looking for celebs to join the church); and Haggis’ wife, actress …read more

While in Pennsylvania shooting the film “The Next Three Days,” Russell Crowe and Elizabeth Banks were involved in a car accident.
According to ETonline, the two actors were in a parked van when a firetruck hit them. The truck was reportedly pulling out of the Deutschtown Fire Station earlier this afternoon when it hit the front end of the van.
Fortunately, no one was hurt, and both Crowe and Banks emerged from the vehicle just fine. A worker at a local bar said everyone was cheery about it, and that Crowe waved back at her when she waved at him.
I don’t know …read more

I can see how a celebrity might get a big head, being the center of attention all the time. Hopefully, that won’t happen to Taylor Lautner, werewolf star of the upcoming “Twilight” sequel, “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” 
The movie arrives in theaters Nov. 20, 2009, and Lautner’s character Jacob Black takes center stage with Kristen Stewart’s Bella. Until then, here’s a few yummy pictures of a Taylor Lautner photo shoot to tie you over…
 
More Taylor goodness after the jump…

Two adorable stars – Corbin Bleu and Madison Pettis – were just two of the actors to grace the New York premiere of “Free Style” on Sept. 24, 2009.
Bleu stars as Cale Bryant, a young man who’s determined to win a coveted spot on the Grand National racing team without compromising his beliefs.
With the support of his loving mother (Penelope Ann Miller), precocious little sister (Madison Pettis), and new girlfriend (Sandra Echeverria), Cale proves against all odds that he has the heart, the willpower and the courage to never give up on his dream. Yeah, predictable, but sweet.
“Free …read more

In the 1980 movie “Fame,” Debbie Allen played dance teacher Lydia, and in the new version, she’s the principal of the school. ReelzChannel sat down with the iconic choreographer, who talks about her new job (in the film), her classic line (“You want fame…”), and the modern version, in theaters tomorrow. It actually seems more like a sequel than a remake. Watch the trailer here, and listen to Debbie’s take…

Actress Toni Collette was looking beautiful at the 2009 Emmy Awards this past week. She was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress for her Showtime series “The United States of Tara,” in which she plays a woman with dissociative identity disorder. I need to check out the series, but I’m a big fan of her movies, which include “Little Miss Sunshine,” “In Her Shoes,” and “Evening.”
I love this dress, but I’m not sure about the middle part. Maybe less “band-ish” and more fluid … any thoughts?
