Jennifer Lopez channeled the legendary Marilyn Monroe for a seductive, yet sweet birthday serenade for her buddy, George Lopez who turns 49 today.
The stunning star, wearing a blonde wig and sparkling Marilyn-esque dress, appeared on Lopez Tonight to close out last night's show...and of course, wish G. Lo a happy birthday! We're loving how the performance was aired in black and white to give us that old Hollywood feel.

Last night Avril Lavigne and boyfriend Brody Jenner were spotted arriving at the SLS hotel in Los Angeles, and the two weren't exactly walking hand in hand or making out in public again, but they definitely didn't shy away from the cameras!
After hooking up with Brody around Valentine's Day and then briefly reuniting with her ex-husband Deryck Whibley in March, Avril and Brody have been going strong for the past few weeks. Think they'll last?

Kristen Stewart is apparently in talks to star opposite James McAvoy in the sequel to the smash Angelina Jolie hit Wanted.
With Angie reportedly having backed out of the sequel, Stewart is said to be the first choice to fill the role, and even met with the film's director, Timur Bekmambetov, according to E!
It's unclear if Kristen, who did some of her own stunts for the Twilight series, would simply step into the Angelina character (who died in the first film but was going to be brought back in some capacity) or a new role would be created for her.
But bosses first need to find a time frame to shoot the film that works with KStew's Breaking Dawn schedule. She's slated to shoot the fourth Twilight film in October, while Wanted 2 was supposed to lens in August.

Scarlett Johansson has always oozed sex appeal, but when she got in shape for her role as the Black Widow in Iron Man 2, donned a sleek unitard and executed a lot of her own stunts, she left her director and co-stars even more in awe of her than they already were.
"I saw the costume when we were doing wardrobe tests, and I was just like, 'Oh my god, this is just not fair,'" Robert Downey Jr. said about her skin-tight sexy unitard costume.
"I think Black Widow's gonna bring, like, tongues hanging, drooling toward her," Samuel L. Jackson told ET. "Plus, she's kicking so much ass."
Even her director, Jon Favreau, couldn't stop his glowing review of her stunt-work and dedication to the film.
But one co-star who was noticeably absent from the video (which shows some shots of Scar Jo kicking butt in the film) was Gwyneth Paltrow, who, rumor has it, had some tension with Scarlett due to her obvious attention-getting presence on the set.

Not much is known about Kim Kardashian's marriage to music producer Damon Thomas, but newly uncovered court papers detail his repeated abuse and bullying, painting the picture of a very unhappy couple.
In the court documents, Kardashian claims Thomas hit her on numerous occasions, forced her to quit her job and verbally abused her, telling her she needed to get plastic surgery, among other things.
According to Kardashian, Thomas demanded that she cook him food when he arrived home at 4:30am, and he even tried to convince the reality TV starlet that her mother and sisters were "evil." Thomas allegedly gave his then 19-year-old wife $3,650 to get liposuction because he wanted her to be "perfect," and the violence began just three months after the two got married in Vegas.
Kardashian recalls one of the final incidents of abuse, when she returned to the home they once shared to collect some of her belongings. She says:
"He came at me and slammed me against the closet wall. He held me up against the wall with his hands around my neck and threatened to choke me. He then took one hand and punched the wall right next to my head. He then grabbed me by my hair and told me to get out. He put one hand against my back and pushed me up the stairs (the front door is on the ground level and the bedroom is one level below ground). At the top of the stairs, he threw me across the room and I hit my head against the front door. I got up and ran out of the house. I was frightened."
Kardashian and Thomas got married in January of 2000, and it was Thomas who filed for divorce from the starlet in 2003. Their marriage was officially dissolved in February of 2004 and Thomas was ordered to pay Kardashian a one time sum of $56,000.

Renee Zellweger showed off her new pixie cut at the at the premiere of My Own Love Song at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York.
In the film, Renee plays a wheelchair-bound country singer on a road trip... but last night, Renee was all legs, in a Vera Wang dress and Louboutin heels.
With her athletic frame, the short hair may make her look a bit too boyish, but let's hope Bradley Cooper likes the masculine look!

Jennifer Lopez flashed her million dollar smile as she headed into Us' Hot Hollywood Party at Drai's last night, where she was honored as the Style Icon of the Decade.
Considering that La Lopez hasn't made a fashion statement since the plunging Grammy dress she wore back in 2000, we were a little shocked she'd been named "Icon of the Decade", but then we remembered -- she has a new movie to promote!
