...carpet. And über-trendsetter Kate Moss showed up at a gala in a classic tux jacket over sleek satin leggings. These days Armani is so closely associated with the tuxedo that he names each iteration of it after the boldface name who wears it: Travolta, Depp, Beckham. He even provided tuxedos for the Jackie Chan movie The Tuxedo, a comedy about a tux containing magic powers...
...Allen sings on Not Big and wiggles her little finger for anyone in the Bush Hall crowd that didn't get the subtlety of the title. In real life she can be just as harsh. She's slammed U.S. girl group the Pussycat Dolls and former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham for "promoting womanizing" and being too thin, respectively. Not that she intends to play by anyone else's rules. "If people want to think of me as a role model, then that's up to them," she says. "I'm not going to change myself for anyone," she adds with...

...Wouldn't you like to see, in one sitting, the new films from the directors of Fargo, Sideways, Scream, Y tu mama tambien, Bend It Like Beckham, Irma Vep, The Motorcycle Diaries, The Triplets of Belleville and Run, Lola, Run? (For those of you who don't frequent art houses, we speak of Joel and Ethan Coen, Alexander Payne, Wes Craven, Alfonso Cuaron, Gurinder Chadha, Olivier Assayas, Walter Salles, Sylvain Chomet and Tom Tykwer.) Wouldn't it to lovely to bathe briefly in the radiance of Fanny Ardant, Juliette Binoche, Steve Buscemi, Sergio Castellito, Willem Dafoe, Ben Gazzara, Maggie Gyllenhaal...
