Mr. Paparazzi
Simon Cowell was spotted leaving Cipriani in London last night, and the music mogul was in good spirits as he headed back to his car. It's not clear whether the
X Factor creator will appear in Los Angeles today for auditions, but one thing's for sure -- we'll be watching the US version of the show when it premieres this September!
Nearly 18,000 people showed up to the LA Sports Arena today to try out for the show, and judging by that turnout, it seems like this reality competition could be even bigger than
American Idol! Additional auditions will take place in Chicago, Miami, Seattle, Dallas and Newark, so if you missed your shot this weekend, you'll get another chance!

Yesterday Kirsten Dunst hit the gym in Studio City, and while the purse and peacoat look nice, they don't exactly go with her spandex and sneakers!
The actress recently revealed that she wants a piece of the fashion industry, telling WWD, “I wouldn’t want my own entire fashion line, but I’d do a collaboration, a one-off. I wouldn’t say no, it sounds like fun.†Maybe she should focus a bit more on her own style though? The 28-year-old actress will appear alongside Garrett Hedlund and Kristen Stewart in
On The Road, so if you've been missing her on the big screen, you'll get to see her lovely face when the film opens later this year.

Though Natalie Portman’s
Black Swan choreographer and fiance Benjamin Millepied recently revealed that "85 percent of [the] movie is Natalie [dancing]," the Oscar winner's body double Sarah Lane says that's not the case.
Millepied told the
LA Times last week, “There are articles now talking about her dance double that are making it sound like [Lane] did a lot of the work, but really, she just did the footwork, and the fouettés, and one diagonal [phrase] in the studio. Honestly, 85 percent of that movie is Natalie."
The American Ballet Theatre dancer tells
Entertainment Weekly that she has been the victim of a “cover-up†to mislead audiences about how much dancing Portman actually did in the film. “Of the full body shots, I would say 5 percent are Natalie,†Lane told EW. “All the other shots are me. The shots that are just her face with arms, those shots are definitely Natalie. But that doesn’t show the actual dancing.â€Â
Lane admits that she was never promised a specific title for her work on the film, and while she was aware that Portman’s face would be digitally grafted onto her body, she's upset over the misunderstanding. “They wanted to create this idea in people’s minds that Natalie was some kind of prodigy or so gifted in dance and really worked so hard to make herself a ballerina in a year and a half for the movie, basically because of the Oscar,†says Lane. “It is demeaning to the profession and not just to me. I’ve been doing this for 22 years ... Can you become a concert pianist in a year and a half, even if you’re a movie star?â€Â

Nick Lachey ran errands in Beverly Hills yesterday, and the singer slash sometime actor (anyone catch his guest role on
Hawaii Five-0?) was in a great mood when we snapped his picture.
Nick's fiancee Vanessa Minnillo recently revealed that she's in charge of planning their upcoming wedding, but the two are in no rush to have children. When asked about starting a family on
The Rachael Ray Show, Minnillo said, "Let's do it one chapter at a time, why rush? We have the rest of our lives. If you have children, once they're there, they're there. You can't say, 'I don't think I want to deal with you today.' No, they're there!" Good point!
