Jennifer Garner has been dressing down lately and it looks like she might be getting her inspiration from her 3-year old daughter. The “Ghosts of Girlfriend’s Past” actress claims that hubby Ben Affleck is responsible for Violet’s bohemian look and describes how she knows when Ben has been at Violet’s hair.

“Ben [Affleck] will do the school run. He dresses her and does her hair. It’s pretty funny,” she tells May’s InStyle (via JustJared). “You can always tell when he has been at it, just two random barrettes hanging in there. It’s so sweet.”

As for herself, Garner, 37, says, “I never go nuts with my look. It’s easy to feel like you’ve gone into caricature territory when you do.”

These days, the actress adds, “I wear less makeup than earlier in my career, but I know a lot more about it now.” [Source]

Such is the life of a busy mom. Garner still knows how to glam it up though. She always seems to look great when she needs to.

Now, this is weird. Rupert Everett has basically completely reinvented himself. The actor is in New York doing a Broadway play right now and unveiled his new look on a recent episode of The Martha Stewart show.

According to Dr. Brian S. Glatt, founder of the Premier Plastic Surgery Center of New Jersey, Rupert, 49, has had a comprehensive series of facial procedures. “I think Rupert had a face-lift,” Dr. Glatt tells Star. “His cheeks are fuller and lifted, and his jawline and neck are pulled back and smoother.”

As for his forehead, Dr. Glatt says it’s simply Botox. “I think he’s definitely using it. He is very animated, and there are no lines visible on his forehead.”

The last element in Rupert’s new look, says Dr. Glatt, is a chin implant! “The shape and projection of the chin is drastically different. It’s much more pointed,” he says.

In all, the surgeries could have set Rupert back almost $25,000!

But it was worth it. Dr. Glatt, who has not treated the actor, observes, “This is an impressive difference. He looks 10 years younger!” [Source]

Sure, he looks younger. He looks like a younger, completely different person. I don’t know how people can get this amount of surgery and then wake up every morning, look at themselves in the mirror and think, “yep, that’s me!” Why do we all hate ourselves so much?

Josh Hartnett is blaming bad water for his recent trip to Cedars-Sinai. The actor was rushed to the hospital a few weeks ago after complaining of persistent GI distress (read: diarrhea and cramping) and is saying that his trip to Mexico and a few other third-world countries might have been what started it.

“It’s been reoccurring because I have been spending a lot of time in Third World countries, and I occasionally drank the water when I shouldn’t have — and sometimes it catches up with you,” the actor said on Wednesday. “I was so dehydrated that I needed to be on a couple of IVs.” [Source]

Apparently, the gut bomb didn’t slow Josh down too much. He’s been spotted out and about partying in both Miami Beach and NYC. Let’s hope he’s just drinking ginger ale and bitters.

This was definitely a difficult week on The Biggest Loser. Laura was sent packing because of the injury she suffered to her hip, bringing everyone, including tough-trainer Jillian Michaels, to tears. But even though Laura was always a bit difficult to motivate on the show, she’s working hard back home. She recently sat down with People.com to discuss life off the ranch and how The Biggest Loser has changed her.

How is your hip feeling and what are your workouts routines like?
I’m much better. My workouts mainly consist of going to physical therapy and cardio, which is limited to spinning on the bike or doing sit-down cardio because I can’t put any pressure or weight on my hips. My hip is still fractured. … So mainly, it’s just upper body weights, the bike and swimming, but I prefer being in a gym and listening to my music.

With Jillian’s help, were you able to work through the emotional issues and get to the bottom of why you gained weight?
Yes, one thing was my father passing away from cancer when I was 15. I was filling that emptiness with food. My parents were divorced since I was 5 and being on my own as an only child, I was always looking for food as a comfort. I always related food with my emotional self and now I’m learning that I can’t use food as an emotional crutch anymore. [Source]

Can’t wait to see Laura on the last episode.

Real Houswife Jill Zarin is taking a load off. I never realized her boobs were so big but apparently they were and Zarin was fed up. The reality TV star opted for reduction surgery and sounds pretty happy about her choice.

Jill Zarin ended up getting a breast reduction surgery recently, cutting her G-cups down to…well, something smaller. She said she feels 20 pounds lighter. Bravo and Jill were trying to keep it a secret so they could reveal it on the next season of Real Housewives of New York, but the secret slipped out. [Source]

Don’t these people know that when you opt to expose your life on national TV, your rights to privacy go right out the window? Zarin and her cronies don’t get to keep secrets anymore and the quicker they come to terms with that, the better.

I feel kind of bad posting this picture of Melanie Griffith because it looks so sad and awful. But it’s a wonderful lead-in to this titillating tid-bit. Griffith is going to be appearing on “Nip/Tuck” soon, playing Kimber’s mother, Brandie.

Brandie will be joined by Les, her too-tan, on-again-off-again car-salesman boyfriend of six years. Les, played by Robin Thomas (Another World, Who’s the Boss), ignites insta-hate from Christian (Julian McMahon). The breast-cancer-battling doc sees too much of his own abuse of women — especially Kimber — in Les’s treatment of Brandie. [Source]

Here’s hoping the magicians in make-up can do something with this. Otherwise, I’m sensing a surgery storyline for Melanie at some point soon.

It looks like Lindsay Lohan is interested in men again. Shocking. For her first foray back into the wild world of heterosexual foreplay, Lindsay set her sights on Leo Di Caprio. Not quite sure why she had to pick a dude who’s currently dating one of sexiest women in the world, but she did and I guess you have to give her props for being bold.

Lindsay spotted Leo at Hollywood hotspot My House on Wednesday night.

A source said: “As soon as Lindsay saw Leo she was like a bee to honey.

“She was going for the big catch and when she spotted him in a dark corner of the club she headed straight for him.

“She quickly monopolised his conversation and made sure she had him all to herself.

“Lindsay is a sharp tac. She wasn’t wasting her time chatting up small fish. She seemed interested in the gents with deeper pockets, probably because her career is on a downward trajectory.

“The pair were cosied up together deep in conversation. She definitely tickled his fancy.”

As the night went on and the drinks flowed, things between her and Leo hotted up and she took to the dancefloor to show off her talents.

My eyewitness added: “It was a bit shocking when she got up and started dancing in front of him but he seemed to be enjoying it.” [Source]

Leo was probably just being nice since he has absolutely no need to make friends with Lindsay. Then again, he’s a man and she’s a warm body (sorta) so maybe he was actually enjoying himself. We’ll see if Bar stands for it.

It took her long enough to jump on the bandwagon, but Kim Kardashian has finally decided to give the Jukari Fit-to-Fly workout a go. I swear, if there’s one thing Kim knows how to do it’s pick her angles. When she wants the world to see Skinny Kim, she shows them Skinny Kim and when she wants to show some booty, well she can make that happen too.
