Despite a report that surfaced this summer which claimed Renee Zellweger and the gang would be back for more mishaps in a third "Bridget Jones" movie, Ms. Jones herself is dashing everyone's hopes saying that the sequel is just a rumor.
"I get asked every single day, and I don't know anything," she told E! News at Elle magazine's Women in Hollywood event. "It's a rumor."
As for the rumors that she'd be wearing a fat suit for the next installment instead of gaining the pounds she did for the first two, she joked, "Oh, goody! When are we having the fitting?"

Welcome back to Dress Like A Movie Star Week here on Hollywood Crush. We're continuing to bring you Halloween costume ideas inspired by some of the most outrageous, colorful and downright awesome characters on the big screen in 2009. We know your wallets aren't exactly being filled by a money tree in your backyards these days, so we're going to try our darndest to keep these costume ideas easy to create and easy on your bank account! Let the trick and treating begin!
We were green with envy when Rachel Nichols got to have a quick romp with the out-of-this-world hottie Chris Pine in this summer’s mega-hit "Star Trek." So, while Spock (Zachary Quinto) and Nyota (Zoe Saldana) may have been the intergalactic couple to make it work despite some interplanetary meanies trying to come between them, we think bad boy Capt. James Kirk (Chris) and Star Fleet cadet Gailia (Rachel) will make for far more interesting, not to mention eye-catching, couples costume (or solo, we don’t judge!) this Halloween.
We're not going to have you recreate your own Vulcan (though, hats off to you if you can pull that off!), but we so have some helpful hints (after the jump) to best capture the look of Kirk and Gailia. We’ve tried to make them as budget-friendly as possible (heck, times are probably tough on the USS Enterprise) and cool enough that you’ll (live long and) prosper this October 31st.

Remember the days of 'NSYNC when Justin Timberlake rocked a small mop of curly locks? Well you soon might be able to see them again! That’s right JT fans, the singer is growing out his hair for his upcoming role in the new film, "The Social Network." The film, which follows the rise of Facebook and the effect that it had on the site’s founders, also stars "Zombieland" actor Jesse Eisenberg.
“My hair is obviously growing out for a reason.” Justin hinted to MTV News. And while some of us may be caught off guard at the singer reverting back to his boy-band hair do, the singer insists that the movie’s director knows what he’s doing. "To be honest David Fincher’s so ridiculously genius, we're all just following his lead," JT said. "I think we want to tell the story, and I want to tell it through [Aaron] Sorkin's words and Fincher's eyes. I think Aaron did a lot of research on all of it. I don't want to speak for another actor, but I think the consensus for all of us is that we just want to make a great film."
Which look do you prefer? Do you like the retro curly throwback of “Bye Bye Bye” or does the buzz cut look a bit more “justified”?

Olivia Palermo's fashionable wardrobe as an accessories editor at Elle magazine isn't the only thing of hers we covet. Though she may be rough around the edges, the 23-year-old "City" star consistently flaunts some super-soft, stylish hair. We were dyeing (get it?) to know how Olivia gets those bouncy waves and sun-kissed tresses, so we turned to the celebrity stylists at New York City's upscale salon, John Sahag Workshop.
For the socialite's signature shade, colorist Frank Reina said that, "her base was lightened to a medium to light golden honey blond with some classic fine weave highlights." But you know what they say about a picture being worth a thousand words. To get the best match from your own stylist, Frank recommends taking a photo with you. "I know some colorist do not like that, but in my opinion, having a visual of what you are looking for really helps me out a lot."

Have you been keeping up with MTV's newest series, "Valemont," every Tuesday? You're forgiven if you haven't — you could've mistaken it for a Verizon Wireless commercial, since the phone company teamed up with MTV for the project and each two and a half minute episode begins with a video, voicemail, or text message — as long as you start watching the addicting show immediately. The already-aired eight episodes are online so you can catch up for the two episodes that will air next week, one before "The Hills" and one after "The City."
For the unfamiliar, "Valemont" is about Sophie (Kristin Hager, pictured), an 18-year-old girl who decides to investigate her older brother Eric's (Eric Balfour) mysterious death. "He's really all she has in life, so she decides to go incognito and take on a new identity and go to this prestigious university, which is the last place he was seen alive," Kristin told Hollywood Crush.

Whether or not you follow the life-or-death exploits at Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital, it's likely you're familiar with "House M.D." doc Olivia Wilde's, uh, body of work. Crowned "Hottest Woman Alive" by Maxim magazine earlier this year, the beautiful brunette's looks aren't the only thing sizzling. Along with making rounds as Dr. Remy "Thirteen" Hadley, Olivia's got several movie roles on the horizon, including the indie road trip flick "Fix" directed by her husband Tao Ruspoli (out next month) and next year's "Tron Legacy," the sequel to the 1982 sci-fi classic. In honor of Olivia's oh-so-hot career, we're making her the focus of this week's Star Gazing.

If there’s one thing "Gossip Girl" Blair Waldorf is known for, it’s how quickly she’s willing to dismiss something that’s totally not worth her time (a queen “witch-with-a-b,” if you will). So, when I talked to Miss Waldorf herself, Leighton Meester, on the set of the video for her debut single, “Somebody To Love,” I asked the question any fan of the show and her character would want to know: if the well-produced, dance-pop tune would be worth the Upper Eastsider's time.
“I think it hits that… that audience, for sure,” she explained, decked in a skintight, black leather minidress with extended shoulder pads that resembled (or very well could’ve been) Balmain’s current collection, and statement eyebrows that looked like they may have come from “Cleopatra,” or “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” or another movie your grandmother loves.

FROM SPLASH PAGE: From Anna Paquin's history with "X-Men" to Stephen Moyer's upcoming turn in "Priest" — not to mention Alexander Skarsgård's near-miss with "Thor" — the cast of "True Blood" is starting to realize that as cool as vampires are, nothing beats the comic book scene.
Now, it appears that Ryan Kwanten — who plays the dim-witted Jason Stackhouse on the HBO vampire drama — is getting in on the action, as Moviehole reports that the Australian-born actor is shooting a superhero romantic comedy in Sydney titled "Griff the Invisible."

Rihanna's instantly recognizable voice has been pumping through our speakers over the past few months with her contribution to the Jay-Z/Kanye hit collaboration "Run This Town", but now it's time for RiRi (pictured) to fly solo. Today marked the release of her new single, which was posted on the singer's Twitter, "Play Russian Roulette on http://rihannanow.com" While Nick Cannon seemed excited, writing, "Rihanna: The Wait is Ova. Blogger Perez Hilton, however, was underwhelmed, "Seriously depressed that I don't like the new @Rihanna song. It's put me in such a bad mood that I'm disappointed by it. Was expecting MORE!" Did you give the track a listen? What did you think?
Elsewhere, "Harry Potter" star Tom Felton put fans up for a fun challenge and we couldn't help ourselves from participating. he tweeted, "Can anyone come up with a good anagram of my name. Use the full Thomas andrew felton if that makes it easier.

Jackson Rathbone has been working his butt off this year, though most of what he's been working on wont be seen by the public until 2010. He finished filming M. Night Shamylan's "The Last Airbender" and "New Moon" earlier this year, is completing his final two weeks of filming for "Eclipse" right now, and when we caught up with him last week, was working the dual roles of producer and actor on his indie flick, "Girlfriend." Oh yeah, and hes in the process for gearing up for a 100 city tour with his band, 100 Monkeys.
"I just want to work. I don't sleep," Jackson admitted with a laugh.
That was literally the case when we met up with him last week. Both he and bandmate/co-"Girlfriend" star and producer Jerad Anderson had hopped a plane from Vancouver the night before and started working when they landed. He said when he wrapped filming on "Girlfriend," he would jump on a plane back to Vancouver and pick up filming on "Eclipse" again.
