Continuing their promotion of Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, Tom Cruise and Paula Patton stepped out with their respective spouses (Katie Holmes and Robin Thicke) for the U.S. premiere held at the Ziegfeld Theatre on Monday, December 19th, 2011 in New York City. Joining them were co-stars Simon Pegg, Anil Kapoor, and Josh Holloway.

The ladies made sure to look smokin’ hot on the red carpet with birthday girl Holmes, who turned 33 yesterday, wearing a Holmes & Yang dress while Patton got jiggy with it in a colorful Pucci dress.

Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol is currently out in limited release and closed in 2nd place at the box office this weekend. A wide release will take place on December 21st.

Paula Patton hits the red carpet with co-stars Tom Cruise and Simon Pegg in London

Proving that she is a lot more than just a pretty face and a sexy pair of legs, Paula Patton hit the red carpet with co-stars Tom Cruise and Simon Pegg earlier this evening (December 13th, 2011). I don’t know many other women who could stand so confidently (not to mention star in a major motion picture with) mega stars like Cruise and Pegg but somehow Ms. Patton pulls it off!

The trio, who were joined by Bryan Burk, Brad Bird, Lea Seydoux, and Samuli Edelmann, posed for photographers at the UK Premiere of Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol held at BFI IMAX in London, England.

This fourth installment of the Mission Impossible series picks up when the IMF is shut down after being implicated in the bombing of the Kremlin. This causes Ethan Hunt (Cruise) and his new team to go rogue to clear their organization’s name.

Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol opens in theaters on December 16th, 2011.

Hugh Grant and Simon Pegg step out in London

So glad there are still events that bring out Hugh Grant! If it wasn’t for the occasional premiere we’d never get to see hunky Brit out and about. The Did You Hear About the Morgans star was photographed alongside another of our favorite Brits Simin Pegg at the UK Premiere of ‘Senna’, a documentary on Brazilian Formula One racing driver Ayrton Senna, at The Curzon Mayfair on Wednesday, June 1st, 2011 in London, England.

Hugh looked handsome in a black suit with a button down white shirt which he left open to give us all a sneak peek at his chest! Rawr!!

I’m actually quite sad that he wasn’t chosen to replace that awful Charlie Sheen on Two and Half Men. I’ve never watched the show in my life but with the addition of this babe I totally would have started tuning in!

Missed the National Movie Awards? We have the wrap up!

It was an evening to remember with some of the worlds biggest stars on the red carpet at the L’Oreal National Movie Awards 2011 held at Wembley Arena on Wednesday, May 11th, 2011 in London, England. Above you can see the beautiful Mandy Moore whose film Tangled won the Best Animated Film and Ed Westwick who served as presenter for the “Must See Movie of the Summer” Category. (The honor went to Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 2 of course!)

Also in attendance were one of my favorite comedic duos, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost who took home the award for “Best Comedy” for their film, Paul. I REALLY hope they decide to attend Comic Con again this year. Meeting them was one of the highlights of my trip to San Diego last year.

Another big winner this evening was Jamie Campbell Bower who won the title of “One to Watch: Brits Going Global.” The long haired hunk currently stars on the Starz hit period drama, Camelot. The beautiful red head on his arm is his Harry Potter co-star and fiancée Bonnie Wright.

Another American beauty representing on the red carpet was Nicole Scherzinger who arrived with long time love Lewis Hamilton. The British Formula One racer served as presenter for the “Best Animated Film” category which went to Tangled as mentioned above.

Not to go without mention was actor Matthew Horne whom I absolutely adore from his time on Gavin and Stacey. He is set to star in the summer comedy Horrid Henry: The Movie alongside Anjelica Huston and Noel Fielding.

Other big winners from tonight were Colin Firth who won “Performance of the Year” for his portrayal of King George VI in The King’s Speech. The period drama also won in the “Best Drama” and “Special Recognition” categories.

Where is Tom Hooper storing all these trophies I wonder?

Last but certainly not least, actor Johnny Depp was honored with the “Screen Icon” Award. He was not there to accept it in person but he did send a video recording to thank everyone for the accolade.

Congrats to all the winners!

Simon visited with The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night to promote the new film and to basically crack everyone up!

Pegg chatted about what it was like to meet the [Read more...]
