On Wednesday morning Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie landed at Los Angeles International Airport with their six children after a very long flight from Australia, and it looks the happy family will be around for a while, as Brangelina will be gearing up for the Oscars in just four weeks.

Angelina had been in Australia for the last few months shooting the Louis Zamperini biopic Unbroken, which is her second directorial effort. On Tuesday night Brangelina attended the wrap party for the flick at Shipwrecked Seafood Bar and Grill in Airlie Beach, Australia, so we're guessing principal shooting for the film is finally done.

Angelina wore black pants and a bright green wrap while Brad wore light khaki pants, boots and a light brown jacket. Shiloh rocked an AC/DC t-shirt (such a little rebel!) and Pax carried a large purple teddy bear and stuck close to his dad.

She didn't spend much time across the pond!

Kristen Stewart arrived back in L.A. today after jetting to Paris just this past Sunday, and we know this is her "look", but she really appears like she's in need of a shower!

The dirty jeans have gotta go! After all, she's the face of Chanel!

Speaking of which, the purpose of the Twilight actress' brief vacay was to pose for a photo shoot and take a meeting with Karl Lagerfeld.

A source told E! News the brunette beauty is "doing really well" and she's loving all the work she is doing with the fashion house.

What we wouldn't give to be the spokeswoman of the brand!

 

Ashley Tisdale And Shenae Grimes Are Ladies Who Lunch

Who knew they were friends?!

Ashley Tisdale and Shenae Grimes grabbed a bite at Toast in West Hollywood yesterday, and we bet the 90210 actress was offering some wedding tips to the High School Musical star!

The brunette beauty married husband Josh Beech in May 2013, and The Tiz is engaged to her rocker beau Christopher French, so we have a feeling they might have been comparing notes on details like place settings and flower arrangements.

Either that, or they were just hungry!

 

Ashley Benson And Beau Ryan Good Grab A Bite To Eat

Ashley Benson and boyfriend Ryan Good brunched at Toast in West Hollywood on Tuesday, and the duo were a bit camera shy -- well, Ryan was, anyway! Maybe he was concerned photographers were going to hound him with questions about pal Justin Bieber's recent legal troubles?

The couple first got together in 2012, and though they split in March of 2013, they decided to give their romance another shot last October. Looks like that's working out pretty well! In the latest issue of Cosmopolitan, Ash opens up about their brief break and said, "Ryan is one of the strongest people I’ve met, so grounded and such a positive influence on people. We took a break because it was so hard. I work 20 hour days, so I’m always gone. So a lot of your relationship is on the phone and iChatting and trying to catch up."

In other news, Ash must have received some flack for tweeting "Don’t do drugs……" right after the news broke that Philip Seymour Hoffman had died, because she's since removed the message. Ash was very candid in her Cosmo interview about substance abuse problems with her family, so perhaps that's where her comment came from? The 24-year-old actress told the mag, “There are drugs and alcohol in my family on both sides, so I’ve seen lives ruined, going to jail and all that. Once you start with any drug, it can be an addiction – that’s why I never want to start and am not even tempted, because that chain is relentless. And if it runs in your family, you see how unglamorous it is. I would never want to be out of control with my body.”

Maybe they caught word someone more important was going to steal headlines that day?

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have moved up the date of their Parisian nuptials to May, Us Weekly reports. They initially planned on tying the knot in July, but clearly something is making them anxious to make it down the aisle!

"North will have a large role in the wedding!" a source tells the mag.

Apparently Yeezy has been working overtime to perfect every aspect of the big day, and his reality star fiancee is catering to whatever makes him happy.

"Kim isn't totally pumped about a huge wedding. But she's going along with it," the source adds.

Kimmy K better hope the third time's a charm!

If that's her secret we're going to try it, because she looks amazing!

 

Lady Gaga Talks About Tumultuous Year: "I Became Very Depressed At The End Of 2013"

From disappointing sales of her highly anticipated album ARTPOP to her controversial duet with R. Kelly and her split with her longtime manager Troy Carter, Lady Gaga had quite the 2013. The mercurial songstress recently opened up to Harper's Bazaar about her tumultuous year for their March 2014 issue.

On the biggest thing she’s learned:

    “I became very depressed at the end of 2013. I was exhausted fighting people off. I couldn’t even feel my own heartbeat. I was angry, cynical, and had this deep sadness like an anchor dragging everywhere I go. I just didn’t feel like fighting anymore. I didn’t feel like standing up for myself one more time—to one more person who lied to me. But January 1, I woke up, started crying again, and I looked in the mirror and said, ‘I know you don’t want to fight. I know you think you can’t, but you’ve done this before. I know it hurts, but you won’t survive this depression.’…I learned that my sadness never destroyed what was great about me. You just have to go back to that greatness, find that one little light that’s left. I’m lucky I found one little glimmer stored away.”


On how she’s changed throughout the years:

    “I am better with food. I don’t have an eating disorder anymore. I’m also better at not letting people take advantage of me. Five years ago, when I spotted someone with a hidden agenda, I allowed them to stay around me. I didn’t want to believe it. I thought if I ignored it, then they would eventually see me again—that I’m a human being and not a doll. But it doesn’t work that way. I speak up now. I realized that it’s my own fault that people take advantage. I should be around people who cherish my talents, my health, my time. I’m not a pawn for anyone’s future business. I’m an artist. I deserve better than to be loyal to people who only believe in me because I make money.”


On talking to her mother about what sounds like her split with manager Troy Carter:

    "I went through a rough time last year. I felt very taken advantage of by people I trusted. I asked my mother, "I work so hard. I never stop. I never say no. Why doesn't this person love me, Mom? Why was this person willing to hurt me to help themselves? Why wasn't I enough? Why is money more important than me? She reminded me to forgive others for not seeing God where I see it. I see God in my fans. She said, "You're hurt because you don't operate this way. You are fiercely protective of your inventions because you are your fans." She helped me understand my own feelings. When someone has pulled the wool over my eyes, I feel that they have pulled the wool over the eyes of millions of fans around the world. She helped me to forgive. You can't force people to have the same world consciousness and awareness as you do."


The March issue of Harper's Bazaar hits newsstands on February 18.

 

Shakira Faces Politician's Claim That Her Music Video With Rihanna "Promotes Lesbianism"

Even after a flight, Shakira looks adorable! Outfitted in a denim shirt, black jeans and a beanie, the Colombian songstress was all smiles at LAX on Tuesday night despite recently being slammed by a Colombian politician for "promoting lesbianism" in her sexy new music video with Rihanna.

The Public Option party councillor Marco Fidel Ramirez has asked that the Colombia's National Television Authority ban the racy "Can't Remember To Forget You" from being broadcast on any of the nation's channels because it, "damages the moral character of the youth of Bogota, Colombia and Latin America."

Ramirez also wrote on his Twitter: "Shakira's new video is a shameless case for lesbianism and immorality. It is a danger to children." For those who don't know Spanish that hashtag translates to "Dangers of Shakira's Video."

Hmm … sounds to us like Ramirez wouldn't be very fun at a party!

The politician also called the video "simply gross " and "It sends a provocative message to weak people who can be polluted and induced to practice (lesbianism)."

Uhh did you see the video, dude? It's hot! And we think being anti-gay this day and age is "simply gross."

If you haven't seen the video that's been blowing up the Internet with hot sexiness (it has over 72 million views in under a week!) -- well then you've missed out. But fret not, you can check it out now. You're welcome.
