Tyrese Gibson couldn't hold back the tears when he visited his
Fast and the Furious costar Paul Walker's memorial site Sunday afternoon.
Paul and his longtime friend and business partner
Roger Rodas died on Saturday following a fiery
car crash. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said "speed was a factor" in the accident.
Tyrese went to the Santa Clarita, Calif. site of the accident to pay tribute to his friend. E! News' Marcus Mulick tweeted the picture above and wrote, "Tyrese just showed up at Paul Walker's crash site. Didn't say a word, just cried and left." Videos posted on social media (including the one below from the
Los Angeles Times' James Barragan) also show a somber scene: Fans stood silently as Tyrese cried aloud.
While most people left flowers behind, the actor took something with him: a piece from the wreckage. "I will keep your energy with me forever #AshesOfAnAngel fast family around the world we live you and we love you Paul is the heartbeat of this franchise and were gonna see to it that his energy and presence lives on forever #myhearthurtssobad," he captioned an Instagram picture.

Anne Hathaway is a no-fuss kind of gal.
The Oscar winner made a morning coffee run at a local deli near her home in West Hollywood on Saturday. Unlike their previous PDA-filled outing at a vegan restaurant earlier this month, hubby Adam Shulman waited in the car for his lady love.
Although the epitome of glamour on the red carpet, the starlet was makeup free and dressed down when grabbing a cup of joe. Anne looked cute and causal in (very) distressed boyfriend jeans, a grey sweater and black high tops. Black, thick-rimmed glasses completed the adorkable look.

Will Joe Jonas be the next Jo Bro to get hitched?
Joe stepped out with girlfriend Blanda Eggenschwiler on Saturday in Beverly Hills. The couple looked completely smitten as they held hands while walking to the K and L Wine shop. The duo is bound to be spending more time together since the Jonas Brothers called it quits in late October. And with Kevin married with a baby on the way, it might be time for the middle child to settle down as well.
After all, how could Blanda resist that Movember Mustache?

Despite the fame and fortune, Leonardo DiCaprio is still as humble as can be.
Leo, who was more fox than wolf, signed autographs for eager fans on Saturday outside Beverly Hills' Writer's Guild Theater before attending a screening of his new film
The Wolf of Wall Street. Like his boozy onscreen counterpart, party boy Jordan Belfort, he grabbed a cocktail after the event.
The film, which opens on Christmas Day, has already generated Oscar buzz. Leo is yet to nab an Academy Award. According to
The Hollywood Reporter, director Martin Scorcese cut explicit sex scenes from the three-hour long movie in order to lower its initial NC-17 rating. Considering the fact that there will be less scantily clad scenes of Leo, we're not sure how to feel about this news.

What better way to unwind after a long day of Black Friday shopping than with some R&R?
Kylie Jenner and her gal pals got manicures on Saturday in Los Angeles before dining on sushi. The youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan joined friends Blac Chyna and Jordyn Woods at the Sherman Oaks nail salon Laque.
Instead of bright colors, glitter or rhinestones, Kylie opted for a black matte polish with a tiny white alien head on each of her middle fingers. The reality star, along with sister Khloe and Kendall, has confessed to believing in aliens on
Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Now whoever gets the bird will know it, too.
Although the nail art was extraordinary, it was understated compared to her friends' designs.
Kylie kept mum when asked about her reaction to Kanye West's "Bound 2" music video, which stars her topless sister Kim. Blac Chyna, on the other hand, said "It was excellent."

Following Paul Walker's
tragic death, his
Fast and the Furious castmates, past costars and celeb friends have taken to Twitter and Instagram to express shock and sorrow.
While
FF's Vin Diesel said he was "speechless" over his "brother"s untimely passing, Tyrese Gibson said he was in unbearable pain.
The actor's career took off with the first
Fast and the Furious in 2001. The seventh installment of the bankable franchise is currently in production. Although the studio behind the action hits, Universal Pictures, has not announced what Paul's role will now be in the upcoming film, they released a statement saying they were "heartbroken." According to

Reese Witherspoon looked casual and chic while running errands on Saturday.
The Oscar winner first lunched with her brood and hubby Jim Toth at Santa Monica's posh Ivy at the Shore then went grocery stopping at Whole Foods in Brentwood. Clad in a forest green and navy blue plaid top and skinny jeans, the actress dressed up the look with black leather Saint Laurent booties and a Reed Krakoff tote bag.
Reese must be indulging in her free time as she has several films to shoot and promote next year, including Atom Egoyan's crime drama "Devil's Knot." Her performance as a grieving mother in the West Memphis Three biopic is already generating Oscar buzz. The thriller will be released next year.

Paul Walker's autopsy has been delayed,
TMZ reports.
The
Fast and the Furious star, who
died Saturday afternoon in a fiery car crash after leaving a typhoon relief fundraiser he organized in Santa Clarita, Calif., couldn't be identified due to the severity of his burns. According to
TMZ, the L.A. County Coroner's Office has pushed pack the autopsy to later this week in order to obtain dental records.
Paul's longtime friend and business partner Roger Rodas was driving the Porsche when it spiraled out of control and crashed into a tree. The car exploded and neither of them was able to escape. Paul was 40 years old -- he is survived by his 15-year-old daughter, Meadow -- while Roger was 38.
