We spotted Eva Longoria out and about in Los Angeles today, and it was just announced that the actress will star opposite Billy Bob Thornton in Baytown Disco, an independent drama directed by Barry Battles.

The film is about "three violent redneck brothers who are hired to return a kidnapped wheelchair-bound teen to his grandmother," and Deadline reports that Longoria will play the ex-wife of Thornton's character. Sounds like it's 1,000 miles away from Wisteria Lane!

When Kendra Wilkinson goes to dance rehearsal, putting on makeup is the last thing on her mind. You go, girl!

The former Playboy Playmate was ready to get working on those moves for her next performance on Dancing With the Stars, and by the look on her face, she means business.

Earlier this week, Kendra faced criticism after a harsh response to Carrie Ann Inaba's critique. During the show, Carrie Ann mentioned how Kendra seemed afraid of elegance. Kendra responded by saying, "I just don't care about."

We have a feeling Kendra was just tired from kicking butt on the dance floor. Read what she said about being "short" with Carrie Ann ... after the jump.

Katie Holmes manages to juggle her career, marriage, family life ... and a bunch of flowers, too!

With her daughter turning five on April 18, Katie leaves an LA flower shop with loads and loads of flowers perhaps in preparation for Suri's birthday party this weekend.

Earlier this week, Katie was in New York for an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman. Tom Cruise's adorable wife delivered Dave's Top Ten list. Way to show your comedic side, Katie!

Last night Fergie and a red-headed Drew Barrymore attended the book launch party for "The Beauty Detox Solution" at the London Hotel in West Hollywood, and it looks like the ladies had a blast bonding at the bash. Drew brought along her boyfriend Will Kopelman, and stars like Channing Tatum and Hilary Duff also showed up for the party.

“I don’t like to diet, I like to eat right and that’s what Kim’s philosophy is all about," Drew says of the book. "Her food program has had such an impact not only on my body but my health in general. She’s brilliant.” Given how hot the 36-year-old actress looks, we'll take her word for it!

ABC has decided to pull the plug on two of the network's longest-running soap operas ... One Life To Live and All My Children.

All My Children aired for 41 years and One Life To Live survived a 43-year run. Kelly Ripa, who met her husband Mark Consuelos on AMC, said the following:

"All My Children means so much more to me than any place, because [Mark and I] met there, we had our children there, it was a big part of our lives. I think that to cancel a show that has been on television for so many years, what are you going to replace it with? I mean I just don’t know. I just feel like it’s such a training ground for so many actors."

ABC announced both soaps will be replaced with a food-related show called The Chew and a lifestyle show called The Revolution.

OLTL's final episode will air in January 2012. AMC will wrap it up in September 2011.

Aubrey O'Day dropped by Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills last night, and after her meal, the 27-year-old pop star posed her butt off for the paparazzi. Why, you ask? Turns out the busty blonde is promoting her solo album Automatic, and she could use a little extra attention!

“It’s been a process of coming back from being part of such a successful venture as Danity Kane,” O’Day tells the SF Bay Times. “I’ve been struggling to get back to a place emotionally and mentally where I can dominate the music scene. Having so many haters, so many people for a period of time who really disliked me and didn’t think I was worth much, really had me questioning myself."

Will you buy her new CD?

From the looks of her body, actress Gwyneth Paltrow is proving she's ready for summer!

Chris Martin's wife looks incredible in a sexy blue bikini top and short jean shorts on the cover of Self Magazine. The blonde beauty is also getting candid about her challenge areas. Gwyneth tells the mag:

"My butt! My butt, butt, butt. When Tracy met me, she said that I had a long, square butt that she was going to redesign, and I was, like, 'Yeah? Good luck.' The amazing thing is, she was right! And it's still changing!"

So how does the mom of two stay so lean? The Oscar-winning actress adds:

"I do 45 minutes of cardio five days a week, because I like to eat. I also try for 45 minutes of muscular structure work, which is toning, realigning and lengthening. If I'm prepping for something or I've been eating a lot of pie, I do two hours a day, six days a week for two weeks."

Her hard work in the gym has certainly paid off! Read how Ms. Paltrow got her body red carpet-ready for the Iron Man 2 premiere ... after the jump.

Yesterday Avril Lavigne and steady beau Brody Jenner went shopping at Whole Foods in Malibu, and the duo couldn't keep their hands off of each other! Av stuck her paw in Brody's pocket in the parking lot, and we spotted the lovebirds smooching inside the store while they waited to check out.

You'd think these two were still in the honeymoon phase of their relationship, but they've already been together for over a year! X17 snapped the first photos of Avril and Brody making out in April of 2010 at the Chateau Marmont, and clearly the Hills hunk and the Canadian punk/pop star are still super sweet on one another...
