Julia Roberts and Amy Smart were honoured for their environmental accomplishments at a star-studded gala in Santa Monica, California last week (begs14May12).
Smart and the Pretty Woman star, along with her husband Danny Moder, were feted by fellow eco activists, including actors Peter Fonda and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, at Heal the Bay's annual Bring Back the Beach gala on Friday.
Together the crowd raised funds to help promote awareness about protecting the marine animals of Santa Monica Bay home, and The Butterfly Effect beauty Smart was thrilled to be recognised for her years of hard work.
She tells local publication Los Angeles Confidential, "I'm extremely grateful and honoured. I highly respect and love Heal the Bay; their work is so effective, far-reaching, and impactful on the ocean. Growing up in Topanga Canyon (in California), being in the mountains and surrounded by nature inspired me.
"My parents always loved nature, and that inspired my brother and me. Growing up I was always aware of the environment (through) beach clean-ups, hikes, and bike rides in the canyon. Right out of high school I wanted to get involved and saw Heal the Bay posters around. That was my first venture into environmental work when I was 18." »

22 May 2012 8:21 AM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
Oscar-winning screenwriter Charlie Kaufman and actress Catherine Keener previously collaborated on the former’s breakout hit, Being John Malkovich, before re-teaming for Synecdoche, New York (Kaufman’s directorial debut). They will rejoin forces again, on Kaufman’s sophomore directing effort, Frank or Francis.
It turns out the duo will also be collaborating on a new small-screen venture. HBO has fast-tracked development on a new comedy series – written and directed by Kaufman with Keener onboard to star. On the off-chance you were wondering: yes, the show is shaping up to be (what else?) a mind-warp.
HBO has been expanding its repertoire of late, to encompass more women-centric television series. Such new TV additions to the powerhouse cable channel include: Enlightened, starring Laura Dern (also the co-creator), Veep featuring Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Girls as created and headlined by Lena ...

22 May 2012 7:30 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
At the end of Sunday's Veep, Selina was handed the undesirable assignment to head up the president's anti-obesity campaign — even though just being around overweight people makes her uncomfortable. "You don't masturbate in the subway, do you?" she angrily asked her aid. "Or shit in the street? Of course you don't! Because you've gotten a hold of yourself. And now I've got to say what, 'I'm the Vice-President of the United States, put the cupcake down'?" They settled on something marginally more dignified:And these more candid "outtakes" just further support the claim that Julia Louis-Dreyfus is killing this role: »

Catherine Keener is teaming with Charlie Kaufman for a new HBO series. According to Deadline.com, the new half-hour show will follow one day in a woman's life.

Tony Hale on Veep, Hair Extensions, and Where Arrested Development’s Buster Bluth Is Today
18 May 2012 8:30 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Where would Vice-President Selina Meyer be without her body man? Gary Walsh is more than just an assistant to the Veep on Veep — he carries everything she needs, whether it be a fun factoid to greet a guest, or a metal stool to help her reach the proper height at the podium. He is, as he says, her moon. But when Tony Hale, who plays Gary, is not orbiting Julia Louis-Dreyfus, he's starting to get back into gear to play his equally codependent character Buster Bluth for the fourth season of the resurrected Arrested Development. Gary and Buster have so much in common, Hale was able to share with Vulture some thoughts on how his two worlds might collide. Two words: Liza Minnelli.How much room for improv do you have on Veep?We rehearse for five to six weeks before we start shooting, so the script just starts one way, »

Nicole Holofcener ("Walking and Talking," "Friends With Money," and most recently "Please Give") and Shari Springer Berman ("American Splendor," "The Nanny Diaries," "The Extra Man") might make very different kinds of films, but they have at least one thing in common -- they both hate being in front of the camera. "If I wanted to be in front of the camera ..." Springer Berman started as Holofcener finished her thought for her, "you'd be Lena Dunham." "I didn't even want to take photos at my wedding," Springer Berman confessed. "I hate being photographed."
"I'm happy to take a million ugly pictures with my family and doing silly poses, but I'm never happy with staged, posed photographs, which feel fake," Holofcener. "Although my toes were in 'Please Give.' You don't even have to look hard to find them -- it's a close-up."

Lindsay Lohan Recruits Top TV Decorator For Home Revamp
16 May 2012 3:06 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Lindsay Lohan is cashing in on her comeback film and TV roles by redecorating her home - and she's televising the makeover.
The actress was spotted furniture shopping at Beverly Hills' exclusive Kreiss showroom on Tuesday with in-demand interior decorator Kathryn Ireland and a camera crew - and now reports suggest her spending spree will feature on reality TV show Million Dollar Decorator later this year.
An insider tells HollyScoop.com, "The show will air in America this coming fall."
Ireland is not new to celebrity demands - her clients have included Steve Martin, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and director/playwright David Mamet.
The website reports Lohan's shopping spree at Kreiss was a big hit and the actress went home with two St. Regis sofas, two St. Regis armchairs, a pair of Venetian table lamps and two cast bronze candlestick lamps and an array of outdoor furniture.
Lohan is currently prepping her new Beverly Hills home after moving out of her former pad in Venice, California, where she spent a period under house arrest last year. »

Veep: Spoilers for June Episodes
Surprisingly enough, the Veep has had a couple of victories lately. Granted, for each one of them, there's a "yoghurt"-type incident to trip her back up, but she got her man on the Clean Jobs Bill, thanks to a rather smart ploy by Dan. And right now, her focus is still on getting a piece of legislation passed in her name, in order to gain positive press, impress the President, and pave the way for future projects. Oh, and help people, too, but that's...not exactly high up on the list.
Coming up on Veep, though, Selina will see that the Clean Jobs Bill might not have been the legislation to back as strongly as she has, especially considering the possible Congressional hearing it inspires.
Below are the initial air dates, episode names, episode descriptions, and repeat dates for the episodes seven and eight of Veep. »

Every Sunday night for the past four weeks, Anna Chlumsky and Julia Louis-Dreyfus have made us grateful that the office we have to head to on Monday morning is nowhere near as stressful as theirs on Veep. For that (and for all the laughs it provides) we thank them. Incidentally, Chlumsky feels our weekday pain. We’d forgotten all about this, but when she stopped by the office last week for Big Morning Buzz Live she reminded VH1 Celebrity of her two years in the publishing world.
“First, I was a fact checker for Zagat and then I was an editorial assistant for HarperCollins publishing house,” the My Girl star, 30, said of her jobs after graduating from the University of Chicago, and she actually enjoyed those gigs. “Especially publishing. … But it’s not what I was meant to do.”
We’re pretty glad Anna »

'Veep' Julia Louis-Dreyfus: 'There is no higher desire to make a statement'
13 May 2012 3:00 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
Zap2it: Does "Veep" have a message for viewers other than just making them laugh?
Julia Louis-Dreyfus: At the end of the day we are just trying to entertain and hopefully make people laugh, because it is a comedy show, after all. There is no higher desire to make a "statement" about politics, other than to say it's important to remember these are just people trying to do a job, just as you and I do. That's what is both humanizing and scary about the whole process.
Zap2it: What surprised you most about a vice president's job?
Julia Louis-Dreyfus: This may sound simplistic, but what sort of surprised me is just the mundane realities of life in that office and the cruel realities of that position -- to an extent, any position -- in government, actually. When I spoke to people who had been in that office »
