Gwyneth Paltrow went to dinner at the Palm restaurant in Beverly Hills last night, and though the Oscar winner was all dolled up, she was feeling a bit camera shy when X17 photographers caught up with her. #lame!

Gwyneth may not be on everyone's nice list this holiday season (we wouldn't be surprised if Martha Stewart took another dig at the actress before Christmas), but she did help out Meryl Streep on Thanksgiving.

Streep appeared on Live! With Kelly and Michael on Wednesday and revealed that living in the same building as Paltrow does have its perks. "My oven didn’t work," Streep told Kelly Ripa. "I hate my oven! I hate it. You never hate your oven more than on Thanksgiving day when it won’t cook the turkey."

"[Gwyneth] has the best oven I have ever seen in my life," Streep continued. "So I e-mailed her, and they weren’t there." Gwynnie then gave Streep permission to enter her apartment and use her kitchen. "So I went over and I did all the sides in her oven," Streep said. "And my brother was in charge of the turkey that would not cook."

Ok, so it's not like one of Gwyn's Goop articles helped Meryl with her food preparation, but that was still pretty nice of her!

On Thursday evening Brad Pitt attended a Q&A and screening for Fury at the Pacific Design Center in West Hollywood, and X17 photographers snapped these photos of the 50-year-old actor smoking a cigarette afterwards!

Brad was joined by his co-stars Jon Bernthal and Logan Lerman, and while we've known for a while that both Brad and wife Angelina Jolie are secret smokers, it's always shocking to catch them doing it out in the open. I mean, between her cancer scare and the fact that they have six kids together -- you'd think they'd want to quit at some point!

Last month Jolie was seen smoking a cigarette on the couple's hotel balcony in Australia after they were photographed screaming at one another, and Brad was clearly stressed about something last night.

A photographer on the scene tells X17online exclusively:

"Brad was super anxious, even when he was chatting with Jon and Logan. Something was definitely eating away at him -- he was fidgety and he barely smiled the whole time. He hasn't been spending any time with Angelina, so whatever drama is going on between them only seems to be getting worse."

Jennifer Aniston appeared on Conan last night to promote Horrible Bosses 2, and the actress revealed that her character in the film, Dr. Julia Harris, wore a metal sex toy around her neck!

When asked about Dr. Harris' questionable jewelry, Aniston replied, "Oh that's a c*ck ring." Then when she noticed the audience's reaction, she repeated, "It is a c*ck ring."

"Was that your acting choice?" O'Brien asked. "It was an active choice," Aniston said. "It was one of those things where they lay out the jewelry, and I gravitated towards that beautiful piece of jewelry. I put it on and I was like, 'This is unique and cool.' And I kept on trying on other bits of her wardrobe and I just kept it. They said 'Great, you chose the c--k ring'. And I was like, 'I'm sorry, come again?'" HA!

Who knew Justin Theroux's lady love had such a potty mouth -- or such a dirty mind!

Angie's the hardest working actress in Hollywood!

Angelina Jolie looked prim and proper for an appearance on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart in NYC today, and the Oscar winner was in a great mood as she signed autographs for fans on her way inside the studio. She's got a lot to smile about these days! Not only did she just marry the sexiest man in the world, but she's garnering Oscar buzz for her latest directorial effort Unbroken.

Brad Pitt's lady love's upcoming flick tells the story of Louie Zamperini, a bombardier in the Pacific theater who survived a plane crash and nearly two months stranded at sea before he was captured by the Japanese and held in a P.O.W. camp for years. Zamperini passed away in July, but the brunette beauty had a chance to show him the finished product before he died:

"Louie was a part of the journey from the beginning. We’d call him sometimes and say 'Does the raft look right,' or, 'Did you or did you not have a screwdriver?' So he was always aware of it. But I hadn’t shown him the film. I was saving it.

But I found out that he’d gone into the hospital, so I had it downloaded on my laptop and I drove to the hospital and held it over him, like this, so he could see it. And it’s hard to explain. How do you explain that moment? It wasn’t a judgment on a film and how well-acted or well-crafted it was. It was a man watching his life. It was a man at the end of his life, his extraordinary life—this mountain of a man, with his physical strength, at 97 years old . . .

I had to help him a glass of water, his legs were very, very thin—watching himself run and win in the Olympics, watching his brother, watching his mother make gnocchi, watching all that he accomplished, all that he survived. And because he was a man of such strong faith, I think he was preparing himself, I know he was, preparing himself to die. And so he was also preparing himself to see his mother, and Phil, and Mac, and everybody. So it was hard to explain what it was. It was watching somebody relive all their experiences and prepare for that great, powerful, extraordinary, inspiring, long life to end."

Groovy, baby!

The High School Musical alum was looking particularly hippie dippy when she went shopping in Beverly Hills on Thursday afternoon. For the shopping trip, the 25-year-old selected some striped flares, a white cropped sweater and a pair of oversized round sunglasses that even John Lennon would be envious of!

And despite wearing a pair of funky peepers, it looks like VHudge was on the prowl for another pair of shades, buying a pair of pricey sunglasses during her spot of retail therapy.

The former Disney Channel star also showed off her new long mane. The brunette just visited Nine Zero One salon in West Hollywood and got some long extensions.

She posted about her extensions on Twitter, saying: "Yeah. Long hair makes me very happy. besos lovers riawnacapri @nikkilee901 @nikkilee901"

Pretty soon, the actress will be switching up her location from the hills of Beverly to the nation's capital to star in the Kennedy Center's production of Gigi. The Spring Breakers star will portray the high-society courtesan from Lerner & Loewe's 1958 musical.

The show runs from January 16 through February 12 at the Eisenhower Theater.

Brit Brit has never seemed happier!

Britney Spears turned 33-years-old on Tuesday, and she looked giddy as she blew out the candles on her cake specially designed by boyfriend Charlie Ebersol. "Couldn't have wished for a better birthday!" she captioned the snapshot. Her man even decorated the sweet treat with her fave hues! "Charlie is a sweetheart. He put a lot of time and thought into this. You can see from the pictures Britney sent out that the colors were pinks and golds and blacks. It was all his creation," a source dished to E! News.

The pop princess also shared an image of her sons Sean Preston and Jayden James on the beach wishing her a happy birthday by writing it in the sand. Aww! Her boys have reportedly already met her new beau, so it appears their romance is moving forward at lightning speed!

Although, if the TV producer's parents have their way, these two might not be together for long! A new report claims Charlie's parents Susan Saint James and Dick Ebersol have mixed feelings about their son dating the legendary songstress, as they would prefer he settle down with someone more normal. "Dick thinks it is great to see his son happy, but Susan wants him to be with someone not famous," a source told Radar. "All Charlie’s mother has ever wanted is for him to get married and have children...She just doesn’t think Britney is the right choice," the source added.

We bet her chubby legal assistant ex David Lucado is crying into his mounds of paperwork right about now!

Khloe Kardashian and Gwen Stefani were two of the biggest names at Pharrell Williams' Adidas launch party on Wednesday at Hinoki & The Bird in Los Angeles, and rather than keeping it casual in sportswear-inspired ensembles, the ladies got a bit glammed up!

Khloe wore a sexy black jumpsuit that was practically cut down to her navel (she wore the same getup to Shelli Azoff’s holiday party right after this), and she posted a pic of herself with Pharrell and wrote, "Congratulations @Pharrell!!! Equality is love… Equality is acceptance… Equality is strength!!!" As you may know, Pharrell's line also serves as a campaign for equality, and if you look carefully at the pieces in the collection, you'll notice an equals sign and that the Adidas Logo is a rainbow.

While Gwen wore funky track jacket from Pharrell's label (with some of her own custom touches), she dressed up her funky cloud shorts with heels and her signature red lipstick. Seeing as Gwen works with Pharrell on The Voice, we have a feeling her jacket might have been a gift...

Pharrell's first collaboration with the brand hit stores a few months ago, and from his reinvention of the classic Stan Smith sneaker to his satin track jackets, the line has done quite well. "I'm just grateful to Adidas for giving me the opportunity to have yet another platform for self-expression," he said in a statement earlier this year.
