It's a shame Taylor Swift was out of the country and unable to accept her five American Music Award statuettes — including Best Artist — in person. We always enjoy the 19-year-old's frilly, fairy tale looks on the red carpet. But that doesn't mean our fashion fairy godmother didn't gift us with a few fabulous frocks to fawn over at last night's big event.

With the night's standout look, Barbados beauty Rihanna hit the right note in a black-and-white laser-cut Marchesa that looked more like a beautifully-etched vase than an awards show gown. Take note divas: This is the kind of dress to make a comeback in. Fellow singing siren Shakira also opted for cut-outs, though less-attention-grabbing triangles decorated her sunny yellow Versace minidress.

EDITOR'S NOTE: We have since learned since publishing this post that the information below is false. Robert Pattinson is still attached to "Bel Ami," however, Nicole Kidman, according to Gossip Cop, is not.

During this year's Cannes Film Festival news broke that "New Moon" star Robert Pattinson would take on a very different "amoral character" in the film "Bel Ami," an adaption of Guy de Maupassant's 1885 short story. Today we learn the identity of Rob's leading lady: Nicole Kidman.

According to Screen Daily.com, the film centers on journalist Georges Duroy (played by Rob) and his "rise to the top of Parisian high society in the 1890s, via the beds of the city's most glamorous and influential women."

Apparently November is the month of multiple-actress magazine covers. Elle recently revealed five different covers for its "Women of Hollywood" issue featuring Katie Holmes, Emily Blunt, Julianne Moore, Renee Zellwegger and Zoe Saldana. Now Vogue is getting in on the act with its November issue, which stars the actresses of the movie musical "Nine." Nicole Kidman, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz and Kate Hudson take a walk on a Malibu beach for legendary photographer Annie Leibovitz, festooned in varying shades of plum and burgundy for the pretty cover shot.

The film, which also stars Daniel Day-Lewis, Sophia Lauren, Judi Dench and Stacy "Fergie" Ferguson, is based on the Broadway production of the same name (itself a take off of the 1963 Fellini film "8 1/2"). The story centers around Guido Contini (Daniel), a famous film director who struggles to juggle all the women in his life (think: wife, mistress, muse, agent and mother).

In a two-hour special that is airing this Thursday before the premiere of the newest season of "Project Runway" — the first since its move from Bravo to Lifetime — Oscar-winner Nicole Kidman will make a cameo on the special, “Project Runway: All Star Challenge."

This week Forbes released its annual Celebrity 100 list ranking the world's most powerful celebrities, including a rundown of the silver screen's highest paid actresses. The top 10 was fairly predictable (actress/ambassador Angelina Jolie took the No. 1 spot), but there were a few surprises (uh, where's Julia Roberts?). Take a look at the full list below:

1. Angelina Jolie, $27 million
2. Jennifer Aniston, $25 million
3. Meryl Streep, $24 million
4. Sarah Jessica Parker, $23 million
5. Cameron Diaz, $20 million
6. Sandra Bullock, $15 million
7. Reese Witherspoon, $15 million
8. Nicole Kidman, $12 million
9. Drew Barrymore, $12 million
10. Renee Zellweger, $10 million

Being the curious folks that we are at Hollywood Crush, we started wondering how this list would shape up 10 years from now, when many of today's tweeners will have come of age and cinema staples like Angelina and Jennifer might be slowing down. While we have no idea how to calculate dollar amounts (we're journalists, duh!), here's a list — and accompanying flipbook — of our best guess at who will be at the top of the marquee in 2019.
