Yesterday, I covered the photos from Monday night of Vanessa Paradis at the Paris premiere of her latest film, Café de Flora . I thought she looked beautiful – prettier than she had looked in a while. I also thought I might have detected some sadness in her eyes, but I could have just been projecting. These are some new photos of Vanessa at the Chanel show on Tuesday – once again, I think she looks great. So what’s up with all of the Johnny Depp-split rumors? Vanessa didn’t confirm or deny the split on the red carpet for Café de Flora, but she did get cryptic during a radio interview yesterday. When asked about the split rumors, Vanessa said: “You know, when I eat three peas, I’m pregnant. When I visit a city, I’m buying a house. In the winter I separate, in the summer I marry. It’s been fifteen years since I’ve been getting married every year. In addition I have to answer all these rumours!” [Via The Mail ] Apparently, she also said that she doesn’t believe in marriage or soul mates because “If you lose your soulmate everything is done for. Cafe De Flore speaks of love, its joys, its pains and its dramas – to love and to lose. This story upset me, I was upside-down, in the depths of myself. The idea of a soulmate is beautiful and very romantic to talk about it in a movie or a song, but in reality, I find it scary.” Damn, Vanessa is playing this close to the vest, isn’t she? I don’t know what to think – my guess is that they really are over, but it’s relatively amicable, and neither one of them has an axe to grind. That could just be wishful thinking, though. UPDATE: People Mag has a different version of Vanessa’s comments, which… are still odd. She says the rumors are false though: “The press is going on about this separation with Johnny Depp … How do you handle these rumors?” asked Massenet [PEOPLE's French correspondent translated the interview]. “It depends which rumor,” Paradis replied. “Here, this is one which could hurt my family. After that … they say that we have 52 houses in France, we separate in winter, we get married every summer. Me, I’m in my 12th pregnancy.” “All this is, I don’t know, because the Queen of England didn’t lose her teeth this week and there’s nothing happening,” Paradis continues of the coverage of her relationship with Depp, 48. “And to finish the rumors off, they are false?” asked the program’s host, Michel Denisot. “Yes, they are false,” she replied. Which rumors she was referring to remains unclear (or perhaps lost in translation?) But multiple sources tell PEOPLE in this week’s cover story that Depp and Paradis’s relationship is all but officially over. [ From People ] So… still together then? I don’t even know.

Mad hatters: Eye-catching millinery reminiscent of designs worn at Ascot make an entrance at Couture Fashion Week Enormous flower headpieces, reminiscent of the wacky designs worn by race-goers at Royal Ascot, are flooding the Paris catwalk this haute couture week. But with a stricter dress code announced for Ascot this year, it will be interesting to see if the millinery present at the Queen’s favourite annual meeting, set to take place this June, will be as fanciful as previous years. However these bold designs in red, pink, gold, rose, orange, lime, yellow and violet will certainly inspire those on the lookout for some eye-catching headgear – and they will certainly meet the 4in diameter requirements Continue reading

Jessica Chastain was in Paris this afternoon at the Giorgio Armani Prive runway show when the 2012 Oscar nominations were announced – but when the news that The Help star had earned a best supporting actress nod broke, the fashionable French crowd gave the actress a standing ovation! Jessica may have been the woman of the hour at the Grand Palais, where the show was held, but she wasn’t the only boldfaced name in attendance at the couture presentation. She was seated side-by-side with Cameron Diaz in a coveted front-row spot. The actresses both stopped to pose for pictures and chat with designer Giorgio Armani before taking their seats. Cameron had already made the scene at several major shows, including Chanel, Dior , and Versace , before putting in the appearance at Mr. Armani’s show this morning.

Ladies love the latest looks, and the Chanel Haute-Couture Spring/Summer 2012 fashion show was quite a hit with Tinseltown A-listers today (January 24). Cameron Diaz showed up at the Grand Palais as part of Paris Fashion Week, sporting a black coat/white dress/black heels combo. Also in the house were fabulous folks like Elizabeth Olsen , Diane Kruger , and Vanees Paradis , all eager to see what Chanel had cooked up. And it seems Karl Lagerfeld had an airplane motif in mind when he designed the show, as models doubled as fantasy air hostesses, and the set was made to resemble an air travel motif.

Brad Pitt, George Clooney, and Michelle Williams Score Oscars Nominations!
Well, the 2012 Oscar nominations just came out this morning, and it’s going to be interesting show this year. Although many people think that George Clooney is the frontrunner for Best Actor, but I think his position is soft, and I think the Best Actor category is far from decided. Sad news, though: NO FASSBENDER. Ugh. That sucks. Anyway, the only “sure thing” amongst the big acting awards is probably Christopher Plummer for Best Supporting Actor for the independent film Beginners. Plummer’s got this. Anyway, here are the nominations (I’m only including the big ones, not the technical ones): Best Supporting Actress: Octavia Spencer, “The Help” Berenice Bejo, “The Artist” Jessica Chastain, “The Help” Janet McTeer “Albert Nobbs” Melissa McCarthy, “Bridesmaids” Best Actress: Glenn Close, Albert Nobbs Viola Davis, The Help Rooney Mara, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo Meryl Streep, The Iron Lady Michelle Williams, My Week With Marilyn Best Supporting Actor: Kenneth Branagh Nick Nolte Jonah Hill Christopher Plummer Max Von Sydow Best Actor: George Clooney Jean Dujardin Gary Oldman Brad Pitt Demian Bichir Original screenplay: The Artist, Bridesmaids, Midnight in Paris, Margin Call, A Separation Adapted screenplay: The Descendants, Hugo, Ides of March, Moneyball, Tinker Director: Hazanavicius, Payne, Scorsese, Allen, Mallick Best picture: War Horse, Artist, Moneyball, Descendants, Tree of Life, Midnight in Paris, The Help, Hugo, Extremely Loud Some surprises: no Tilda Swinton for We Need to Talk about Kevin . No Fassbender. The inclusion of Rooney Mara is surprising too – I didn’t think she would have had a chance at a nomination. It’s also interesting that Gary Oldman ended up picking up a nomination, considering he’s been shut out of most other awards. It’s also great to see Melissa McCarthy up for Best Supporting, and Bridesmaids up for Best Screenplay. But I’m disappointed that 50/50 didn’t get a screenplay nomination – that was the most well-written film of the year, in my opinion. Oh, and Angelina Jolie didn’t get a Best Foreign Film nomination for In the Land of Blood and Honey . It was a long shot anyway. Photos courtesy of WENN.
