George Plays Third Wheel But Doesn't Seem to Mind

George Clooney took a night off from promoting Leatherheads yesterday to join pals Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford for dinner in NYC wearing his best Brad Pitt hat. After spending Monday night on the red carpet with Sarah Larson, George was flying solo last night. George is right in the thick of press for the film, and he recently spoke to Parade about what it was like to be both the director and star of a movie — especially when there is a kissing scene to do. Here's more:

On directing himself: “You give yourself less takes because it would look awful if you were to do more for yourself than the other actors. That doesn’t fly very well. But I’ve gone through the movie a thousand times before we start shooting, so I know pretty much what I need in the scene. But most of the time it’s just embarrassing to run from behind the camera and jump into a scene.”
On directing Renee Zellweger: “You know what the problem is? She has no talent. And she’s not cute. And it was very hard for me to work with her. No, she’s smart. She can do anything. She can deliver a punch line with the best of them. And she’s one of the sweetest, nicest people on earth. And she’s a dear friend.”
On how many takes it took to film his scene kissing Renee: “That’s the one thing I can’t remember.”

Salma and Valentina Shop 'Til They Drop

Salma Hayek and 6-month-old Valentina had a day of mother-daughter bonding yesterday as they shopped together at the Balenciaga boutique in LA. Salma's family certainly loves to shop, and chic Valentina will definitely be giving little Suri Cruise some competition in the best dressed celebrity baby department. No sign of Salma's fiancé Francois-Henri Pinault, but perhaps now that Valentina is getting a little older, they are switching into wedding planning mode.

Well Hello There Handsome Clive Owen

Clive Owen looked like he had a fun night out at the Waverly Inn this weekend. He's in NYC to shoot what sounds like an amazing movie with Julia Roberts. Duplicity is the film and it also stars Paul Giamatti. Talk about all-star casting! However, Clive is also more than just an actor these days. The Lancome model came out with a new ad campaign but we have to admit we think he looks cuter in these candid pictures. Dear wants to know what kind of relationship do you want to have with Clive?

Reese and Jake in the Sun and Surf

Reese and Jake may have turned their spring break into a family vacation, but they still managed to find some time to themselves during their trip to Cabo. These two aren't the first to show off their beach bodies, but Reese and Jake gladly broke out the swimsuits for a little sunbathing and dips in the ocean. Poor Jakey G is still hobbling around on his crutches, but he'll have plenty of more time to relax now that Reese just bought a beautiful country house.

George, John and Renee Reunite For LA Leatherheads Debut

After a long trek (of sorts) across the country, Leatherheads finally made its way west last night for its big LA premiere. George Clooney still had Sarah Larson on his arm — apparently he's not one to let a few scandalous photos get in the way. He was also happy to joke about the supposed Jolie-Pitt wedding. Meanwhile, a very handsome looking John Krasinski finally got to pose with his big screen partners and it looks like Renee is especially smitten. The youthful star got some awesome support on the red carpet from his costars on The Office. While we wait with fingers crossed to see how this one turned out — how adorable are they all together?

The Jolie-Pitts: Still Pregnant, Still Not Married

The Jolie-Pitts, minus Shiloh, were spotted at a toy store in Houston yesterday doing their normal thing (coffee, hats, camo pants, toys, blah blah blah). This is very different from the out of control secret weddin stories that occurred this weekend. While the source was suspect to begin with, it was hard to avoid reporting what might be the wedding of the year. Even though there was no big event, Angelina is still growing and looking beautiful as always, even when very pregnant. Fab got to chat with Jennifer Rade who is Angie's stylist so now we can learn some of the celebrity style secrets of the stars and must have items.

Paris

It was widely reported this past weekend that Paris Hilton took a tumble in Prague, while on tour with boyfriend Benji Madden and his band Good Charlotte.
Many reports claim that the Prague paparazzi were at fault for her fall and subsequent chin injury, but these pictures show that Paris wasn't swarmed by paparazzi at all! It seems like the heiress simply tripped on the single stair leading from the Italian restaurant she was dining at to the street.
As she tumbled to the ground Benji nearly stepped on her head but managed some fancy footwork to barely escape it. He began to help her up but exchanged a few choice words with the lone photog instead.
Paris eventually made it to her feet and, obviously embarrassed, covered her head with her hood and hid in a corner on the street with Benji comforting her.
The two soon after rushed to their awaiting car with Paris refusing to uncover her hurt chin and seeming very angry with the situation.
