The best from the Toronto red carpet. Now in its 37th year, the Toronto International Film Festival is eleven days of premieres, award ceremonies and – most importantly – amazing red carpet fashion. Here are some of the top picks:
Some happy baby news to kick-start your Wednesday – the ‘True Blood’ twins have arrived! Celebrity couple Anna Paquin (whose first acting role was as the little girl in The Piano) and Stephen Moyer, who co-star on the hit HBO series, have welcomed their little twins (sexes TBA) into the world.
According to People magazine, the babies are a few weeks early but still in good health. They are the first kids for 30-year-old Anna and 42-year-old Stephen, who got married in August 2010.
Breaking: Chris Brown reaches a disgusting new low. No-one is particularly surprised. In what is possibly the worst case of judgement we have seen since someone decided that Honey Boo Boo needed her own tv show, Chris Brown has stepped out with a new tattoo on his neck. And it bears an uncanny – and horrifying – resemblance to Rihanna’s bruised face. It’s just…. sick.
Brown’s representatives have denied that the tattoo is of an abused woman. Apparently, it’s a MAC cosmetics design of a skull associated with the Mexican celebration of the Day of the Dead. Regardless – did no one, at any point, think to say: “Hey Chris, maybe you shouldn’t get a permanent ink drawing of what looks a brutally attacked woman on your skin, specially cos’ you know, you’ve brutally attacked women in the past.”
Em Rusciano has summed up our thoughts quite nicely for us:
Incidentally, Rihanna also has a new tattoo, only hers notches up a 10/10 on the “aww” scale. The 24 year old singer’s latest ink is a tribute to her grandmother, otherwise known ‘Gran Gran Dolly’ , who recently passed away.
The tattoo, which is located under her breasts (which might mean it’s a little bit hidden by the time Rihanna herself becomes a grandma), is of the ancient Egyptian Goddess Isis who is said to be the ideal mother and wife and the patron of nature and magic.
Take a look (and at some other recent celebrity tattoos… you can’t deny that they’re creative those Hollywood-types).

Newlywed Blake Lively poses for Allure magazine… in a field… with a baby goat. You thought we were joking about the goat, didn’t you? Well – we were not. Here you go:

Blake snuggles with a baby goat for Allure magazine.
Blake, who married Ryan Reynolds over the weekend, told the magazine that she’d love to have 30 kids if she could. That’s human kids – not the goat kind. “I’ve always wanted a big family. Oh, I’d love 30 [children] if I could,” the actress said in the interview held before her hush-hush wedding.
And let’s not forget about New York Fashion Week, which is still kicking along in the Big Apple. Here’s the latest:

Chris Brown. I refuse to give him or what he does any more oxygen
Rihanna….. tweeting her tattoo…. did we really need to see it….. just exhibitionist behaviour… so whatever…
I really try not to be judgemental, but between these two and the Kardashians…. sorry I’ve had it.
rant over.

Thank you thank you thank you Mamamia! I’ve complained before about not knowing who designed the fab dresses on your red carpet galleries and today’s Toronto ones includes designers. Yay!
loading...
Wish tattoos would go back out of fashion.
Sooner rather than later
before my kids are old enough to want one.
loading...
Isn’t Robbie Williams’ back unattractive?
loading...
The ‘True Blood’ twins are the first for Anna AND Stephen, but you didn’t mention that Stephen also has a daughter from a previous relationship. I’m really happy for them, I think they’re great together.
loading...
Man, when did celebrity tattoos get so out of control?! That Rihanna tattoo, every time she looks in the mirror, she’ll see a HUGE eagle across her chest… forever…. each to their own, but totally not my bag!
loading...
Further confirms my suspicions that Chris Brown is a doucheknuckle. But I guess the more we talk about him, the less likely he is to disappear.
loading...
Doucheknuckle……my new favourite word.
loading...
This is interesting!
loading...
It’s obvious what Penelope Cruz’s tattoo means – “888” – neighbour of the devil!
loading...
I thought it was ’883′?
loading...
It’s her contestant number for the Tom Cruise wife auditions.
loading...
Bwahahahahahaha love it!!!
loading...
Wouldn’t that be 668?
loading...
It’s 883
loading...
Hey here’s an idea, how about we install a total ban on everything that Chris Brown says/does/releases careerwise forever? The same way that many sites did when Lilo’s life went waaay off the rails.
Wouldn’t that be great?! I would love that and hopefully one day he may go away!
loading...
I wish I had Blake’s wardrobe
loading...
I wish I had her face. Or body. Or hair.
loading...
…or her goat, lol!
loading...
Or her hubby!
loading...
That’s going to look great when he’s 90 …..
loading...
Why do people always say that?
Ironically, I’m not a fan of tattoos (don’t have any – never will) but who cares what it looks like when you’re 90? NOTHING will look good when you’re 90. I’d be more concerned with how it looks when I’m 40, 50, 60, even 70.
loading...
Chris Brown, just when I thought you couldn’t get any dumber…
loading...
have to agree… where are his support people and why arent they saying “hey dude don’t do it poor taste”?
loading...
I doubt CB listens to any advice on anything
loading...
Even if it isn’t RiRi, why would you get a tattoo of a MAC cosmetics drawing???? Is he a huge fan of their products or something?
loading...
Chris Brown is a thoroughly second rate human being.
loading...
Very well said.
loading...
Terrible judgement call on his part, but it does look just like the MAC image.
loading...
It may well be an homage to the MAC image – a very poor one. Even without the history of violence against Rihanna, that’s one butt-ugly tattoo.
Mental note: Avoid Chris Browns tattoo “artist” at all costs.
loading...
I’ve made a montage that I thought I’d share here as some of you might want to tell and show more people what a f**ktard CB is on Facebook (like I just did!)
loading...
But why did he choose it? People generally have a reason for the design.
loading...
He just loves their lipsticks!
loading...
Chris Brown is a disgrace!! and so is anyone who tries to defend him. What a disgusting excuse for a man!!
loading...
Chris Brown is king. King of The Douchebag People. That is so vile.
loading...
mmmmmm…..Johnny Depp…..;)
