Just look at that outfit! In fifty years, we'll all be wearing it.
The uniquely dressed actress dropped by Katsuya last night and showed off both her abs AND her latest magazine cover. Phoebe Price what? Bai and PP totally need to hook up! I think they're both on the same wavelength.
And check out Kat Von D - who also dined at Katsuya - in our gallery below. Only problem is, the tattoo artist was all covered up!

Daniel Craig In Talks To Replace RDJ In Cowboys and Aliens
The latest Bond is eyeing DreamWorks' next big project, Cowboys and Aliens, to be directed by Jon Favreau, so says THR's Heat Vision blog.
Daniel Craig would play a cowboy in the mid-1800s Arizona when the prairie finds itself attacked by, you guessed it, aliens! His character would lead the human revolt against the space invaders.
Robert Downey Jr. just dropped out due to scheduling issues and, as the company is hoping for a 2011 release, they need to fill the part soon. 007 to the rescue!
Simon Fuller Launches New Entertainment Company
The American Idol creator is already the founder of 19 Entertainment, as well as its parent company CKX. Now a deal has been agreed upon to allow Fuller to launch a new company, according to The Hollywood Reporter...
In addition to this company, Fuller will provide general consulting services to CKX. Fuller will also receive a share of the profits.
No other details have been revealed, but Simon says that "starting a new entertainment company at this moment fills me with great excitement."
Sounds like Simon and CKX will be working together for years to come!
Terminator Franchise Up For Sale
And the leading bidder is Lionsgate! The company is offering Halcyon Group - who put the franchise up for sale in September due to bankruptcy - $15 million and a 5% cut of future gross receipts, reports Variety.
Lionsgate is considered a "stalking horse" bidder, and any other company that wants Terminator would have to top its offer by at least $500,000 by February 4th.
If Lionsgate doesn't win, it will receive $750,000 as a breakup fee. The company's other franchises include Saw and the Tyler Perry films.

In case you didn't get your daily fix of Cristiano Ronaldo's washboard abs in yesterday's fresh new Emporio Armani ads, here's another set of shots from the ad campaign. I hate to say it, but these pics are hotter than David Beckham's! Or am I way off base?

Of course, Jay returned the punch, but we think Conan's joke was way funnier!
Last night Conan told his audience, "Hosting The Tonight Show has been the fulfillment of a lifelong dream for me - and I just want to say to the kids out there watching: You can do anything you want in life. Unless Jay Leno wants to do it too." Ha! Conan also joked that he was prepared to take a job at Starbucks, adding, "Hi, I’m Conan O’Brien, and I’ve been practicing the phrase, 'Who ordered the mochaccino grande?'"
Jay Leno returned some of the fire, but not before taking another jab at the network, stating, "Welcome to NBC. America's most dysfunctional TV family. Thank you very much. You thought the Gosselins were screwed up. Oh my god!" Jay added, "Conan O'Brien, understandably, is very upset. He had a statement in the paper yesterday. Conan said NBC has only given him seven months to make his show work. When I heard that... seven months! How did he get that deal. We only got four! Who's his agent? Get me that guy. I'll take seven."
Oh, and Conan's skit with Jack McBrayer (aka Kenneth the Page from 30 Rock) was totally hilarious...check it out here:

One minute, you're fist pumping away at some sleazy bar in Seaside Heights, the next, you're mingling with the likes of Lindsay Lohan in Los Angeles!
The charmed cast of The Jersey Shore made sure they did their gym, tanning and laundry rounds early enough to arrive to the Vida luxury sex toy launch at Voyeur.
Even quitter Angelina was there to join J-Woww, Pauly D, Ronnie and Sammi Sweetheart at the event.
But where were the two breakout stars of the show, The Situation and Snooki???

After spending the holidays in Poland, Colin Farrell and girlfriend Alicja Bachleda arrived at LAX with baby Henry Tadeusz Farrell in tow. Doting dad Colin bundled up his tiny son as the couple made their way through the airport, and when asked how Henry was doing, Colin softly replied, "Good, thanks."
Has a second shot at fatherhood mellowed him out? This certainly isn't the naughty, oftentimes cranky Irishman we've grown to love...

That's what Russell Simmons is tweeting anyway!
While the public (not to mention his wife Elin) may not have forgiven Tiger Woods yet, this is certainly a step in the right direction...
