She’s not Hemingway, she doesn’t want to write novels, she wants to be a correspondent and I love that she was the first woman to do that… She was a trailblazer.”

With a sneak peek available below, "Hemingway & Gellhorn" is set to premiere of HBO this May.

Kim Kardashian, Orlando Bloom Raise Funds for Haiti Relief

Two years removed from the catastrophic earthquake which ravaged the Caribbean country, Haiti relief continues to be a focus for numerous Hollywood stars.

Marking the second anniversary of the devastating events, stars such as Sean Penn, Kim Kardashian, Orlando Bloom, Julia Roberts, Leonardo DiCaprio and Hilary Swank gathered at the Montage Hotel in Los Angeles for a Cinema for Peace Haiti relief fundraising event.

With raised cash going to Penn's J/P Haitian Relief Organization, other famous faces showing their support included Demi Moore, Rumer Willis, Salma Hayek, Mel Gibson, Petra Nemcova, Felicity Jones and Soleil Moon Frye.

Talking with press about what it is that Haiti needs most right now, Soleil opined, "A true chance at rebuilding. Also, assistance with the rubble removal is key. People can't start rebuilding until the rubble is gone. The country also needs medical and educational support. All of the everyday things we take for granted — brushing our teeth, drinking clean water, taking a bath or shower, having a meal to eat — these are the privileges that few Haitians enjoy."

Miss Frye added, "It's also important to give that support in a way that honors their dignity, helping them stand on their own two feet. Whether helping in little or big ways, every effort counts. It can be a card that touches a child's life, a $5 donation or even a trip down to Haiti to volunteer. But do your homework first. Know where the money is going. I know first-hand that the check I write to J/P HRO will be used to support their incredible work."

Organized to help promote Australian tourism in the States, the 9th Annual G'Day USA Los Angeles Black Tie Gala was held at the Hollywood & Highland Grand Ballroom on Saturday night (January 14).

Among the nearly 1,000 guests enjoying the Aussie food and wine were Miranda Kerr, John Travolta with wife Kelly Preston, Delta Goodrem, Teresa Palmer and Cody Simpson.

The soiree also featured a toast to soft rock duo Air Supply, former NBA player Luc Longley and "Mildred Pierce" actor Guy Pearce, who was presented the Film and Television Award by his lovely co-star Kate Winslet.

Upon being doted with the accolade, Pearce said, "I'm honored and a bit embarrassed about both events to be honest."

Miss Winslet then said, "I have to resist killing Guy's wife Kate because she gets to wake up every day with Mike from Neighbors. I was in love with Mike. I would fake illness to skip school and watch Neighbors at 1:45pm and then the repeat at 5:30pm. I only just found out you were also in Home and Away. Thank god I didn't know that then or I wouldn't have gotten a f**king education!"

To this, Pearce got a laugh from the crowd as he shot back, "I hope you don't think kind words like that means we'll get to have sex again. You can't turn up to these things and expect a free ride."

Enjoy the pictures from the G'Day USA Los Angeles Black Tie Gala (January 14).

Miss Wisconsin Laura Kaeppeler Wins Miss America Pageant

With the field of fifty-two hopefuls being whittled down to one, Miss Wisconsin Laura Kaeppeler was chosen as the new Miss America during the 2012 Miss America Pageant in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday night (January 14).

The 23-year-old beauty queen lit up the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino venue while garnering the dreamt about crown, with Miss Oklahoma Betty Thompson and Miss New York Kaitlyn Monte placing second and third, respectively.

During the course of the rigorous competition, Miss Kaeppeler had to answer a question about whether beauty queens should declare their politics.

Of this, she told, "Miss America represents everyone, so I think the message to political candidates is that they represent everyone as well. And so in these economic times, we need to be looking forward to what America needs, and I think Miss America needs to represent all."

Being passed the title from last year's winner Teresa Scanlan, Kaeppeler also earned herself a $50,000 scholarship with the Miss America Organization paying out a total of $349,000 in prizes at the national level.

Jahatnya Musim Dingin untuk Kulit

Rutinitas menjaga kecantikan pada musim dingin tidak kalah penting dibandingkan saat musim panas. Suhu dingin juga boerpotensi menjadi bencana bagi kulit, pori-pori dan rambut. Tidak hanya makanan dan minuman yang merawat kecantikan kulit. Anda bisa melakukan rutinitas di bawah ini:

1. Gunakan Pelembab
Pelembab menjadi bagian penting rutinitas kecantikan musim hujan. Cuaca yang dingin cenderung membuat kulit kering. Jagalah kelembaban kulit lengan, kaki, lutut dan siku dengan produk pelembab. Bibir yang kering bisa dioleskan lip balm atau lip gloss.

2. Kurangi Frekuensi Mandi
Musim dingin yang panjang membuat kulit kering. Sebaiknya jangan terlalu lama mandi. Terlalu sering mandi akan mengurangi kelembapan kulit.

3. Kurangi Menggunakan Wewangian
Produk wewangian tidak baik digunakan terlalu sering pada musim dingin, terutama jika memiliki kulit sensitif. Wewangian tertentu bisa menyebabkan iritasi yang membuat kulit kering.

4. Minum Air Putih
Agar tidak dehidrasi dan kulit kering, Anda harus sering minum air putih. Anda dapat juga menempatkan sebuah mangkuk penuh air di setiap ruangan di rumah Anda.

5. Rawat Kuku
Kuku bisa rapuh dan mengelupas saat musim dingin. Sebaiknya gunakan 'shea butter' untuk merawat kutikula kuku. Hindari menggunakan cat kuku yang terlalu sering.

6. Rawat Rambut
Biarkan udara kering berembus di rambut Anda, seminggu sekali gunakan 'leave-in conditioner' dan masker rambut. Source
