Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Taylor Armstrong put on a brave and smiley face while hosting "California Dreaming: A Fashion Celebration for a Cause" at Vibiana in Los Angeles.

Taylor, who has made very few public appearances since her husband Russell committed suicide back in August, recently told Extra:

"It's embarrassing to have to admit that I didn't have the strength to get out, but thankfully through all my friends and my support group, I was finally able to leave, obviously, and now I feel as though it's my mission and my goal to go out and help other women."

In addition to hosting this event, Taylor is also involved with a charity called "Women in Need" (W.I.N.)... raising money to help victims of domestic violence.

At long last, we finally get a sneak peek at Angelina Jolie's controversial directorial debut, In the Land of Blood & Honey.

The romantic drama centers on a Serbian man (Goran Kostic) who falls in love with a Bosnian-Muslim woman (Zana Marjanovic) before 1992's Bosnian War separates them, and it's set to hit theaters December 23.

The Oscar winner, who also wrote the film, recently expressed: "I wanted to tell a story of how human relationships and behavior are deeply affected by living in side a war ... The cast was extraordinary. I was privileged and honored to work with them and I am very excited for everyone to see their immense talent."

Jolie filmed two versions of the movie, one in English, the other in the native Serbo-Croatian. And rather than choosing seasoned A-listers, the actress hand-picked local unknowns in the area to fill the coveted roles.

Could Blood & Honey earn the first-time director her second Academy Award?

Ashton Kutcher is opening up to the world via the internet, but not about the rumors that he had an affair with 22-year-old Sara Leal ... but instead, the Two and a Half Men star is discussing today's current social media environment.

During the nearly 4-minute video posted on website chime.in, Demi Moore's scruffy-looking hubby says:

"I started thinking about that in relation to social media and media today. The threshold to have literature printed and distributed -- the cost structure went down to zero dollars. Thereby, there is no gatekeeper of the truth. We are our own editors, and our own publishers. We are our own printers. Therefore people can bastardize the truth in any way, shape or truth they want."

Kutcher is heavily into social media ... known to be an investor for both Flipboard and FourSquare. He adds:

"There's a saying that a lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can hit someone's lips ... we really have to take it upon ourselves to instill a level of honesty in our works and the media we create and we share with each other. And be certain we are doing our own diligence to ensure what we're saying is for the benefit of another...using our full capacity to share the truth."

Earlier this week, Demi and Ashton attended a private 4-hour Kabbalah counseling session at a rabbi's home. Since then, the couple have not been spotted in public together.
