Celebrity Photos of the Week: Why the long face, Jennifer Aniston?
It’s beginning to look a lot like Black Friday! To prepare for the upcoming shopping bacchanal, actors Rick Malambri and Scott Porter dressed up like classic video-game characters at a Nintendo launch event in Los Angeles. Just for the record, Rick is Mario, while Scott is Luigi. Let’s-a-go!Michael Buckner
Likewise lending star-power to the Nintendo event: Jaleel White, whom you probably know better as his nineties sitcom character Urkel, and Derek Hough, whom you probably know better as that elfin guy forced to foxtrot with wizened celebrities on Dancing With the StarsMichael Buckner
But the real A-lister at the Nintendo event: David Arquette, actor, director, nightclub impresario and former WCW World Heavyweight wrestling champion (look that up if you don’t believe me). Oh, he was also married to one of the stars of Friends apparentlyMichael Buckner
Elsewhere in Los Angeles, former Oscar-winners Hilary Swank and Tommy Lee Jones turned up for the premiere of their new film The Homesman. Much like the two stars themselves, this event was an even split between Old Hollywood and New Hollywood. Watch and see...Alberto E. Rodriguez
New Hollywood: Here’s Hailee Steinfeld, who’s only 17 but already has nearly two-dozen films and an Oscar nomination under her belt. She actually brought her father to the premiere!Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images
And here’s Barry Corbin. At 74, he’s best known for his roles in films like Urban Cowboy and No Country For Old Men and, more recently, those store-bought choppersDANNY MOLOSHOK/Reuters
New: Here’s Blenoa, a 35-year-old Albanian-born singer/actress since relocated to the U.S. According to The New York Daily News, she’s the “Madonna of Albania”Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images
Old: Here’s Jacqueline Bisset, who is exactly twice Blenoa’s age and undoubtedly regretting not using sunscreen while filming The Deep back in 1977Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images
New: Here we see Grace Gummer, the 28-year-old daughter of Meryl Streep. If nothing else, you have to admire her decision to use her father’s surname rather than her mother’sAlberto E. Rodriguez
Old: Here’s 73-year-old Sally Kirkland, actress and self-described “health activist” who still shows up at any premiere that will have her. Looking good, Sally!Alberto E. Rodriguez
Next stop: The AFI Fest in Hollywood for the premiere of the Oprah Winfrey-produced feature Selma. Good thing Niecy Nash saved that Batgirl costume from HalloweenDANNY MOLOSHOK/Reuters
Actress Ledisi Young went slightly more formal for the Selma premiere, though most attendees spent the night wondering what the heck she had weaved into her hair. At least it matched the shoesAlberto E. Rodriguez
Fittingly, the Divine Ms. O herself showed up and was immediately swamped by autograph seekers and people desperately trying to unsubscribe from the Oprah Winfrey Network.Alberto E. Rodriguez
And since Oprah was the only person in the house with legitimate TV experience, she obligingly agreed to helm a Q&A session with the Selma stars and directorAlberto E. Rodriguez
Awkwardness ensued when Oprah began handing out cars. Sigh. Old habits really do die hardAlberto E. Rodriguez
Lastly, let’s go to jolly old London for the British premiere of Horrible Bosses 2. Seriously, have you ever seen a more attractive celebrity couple than Jason Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde?Tim P. Whitby/Getty Images
Also looking good was Bosses star Jason Bateman and his wife Amanda Anka. Yes, she’s the daughter of Canadian music legend Paul Anka and no, he didn’t marry her for those Lonely Boy residualsANDREW WINNING/Reuters
And just look at the beaming expression on the faces of Charlie Day and his lovely actress wife Mary Elizabeth Ellis. Really, isn’t this what today’s Hollywood is all about? Young and attractive stars hooking up and producing beautiful children?JUSTIN TALLIS/AFP / Getty Images
Unless you’re Jennifer Aniston, apparently. The ex-Friends doyenne showed up at the Horrible Bosses premiere without her longtime fiancée Justin Theroux (they’ve been engaged since mid-2012) and looked somewhat forlorn all by herself on the red carpetJUSTIN TALLIS/AFP / Getty Images
Aw, just keep on smiling, Jenn. You’ll find your lobster eventuallyTim P. Whitby/Getty Images
