• Did you think the first Sex And The City movie was too sad? Sarah Jessica Parker says: See the sequel!

At the 41st Annual NAACP Image Awards, the stars didn't seem to stick to any patterns, showing up in brights, pastels, short dresses, long gowns, sleek suits, sparkles, and satin. A red carpet rundown, straight ahead:

At last night's Grammy Awards Salute to Icons, honoring Doug Morris, the CEO of Universal Music Group, the stars of the music world hit the red carpet in sequins and shimmer. Ahead: all the glam and glitz you can handle.

Last night "young Hollywood" — Gabrielle Union, Kristen Bell, Samaire Armstrong and many more — gathered at L.A.'s Nobu for the The HFPA Salute To Young Hollywood Party... and looked grrrreat! Well, with some notable exceptions:

Gabrielle! Ginnifer! Hiltons! Rachel! Random starlets! There they were, dressed to the nines (and sometimes, the negative nines) at the opening of D&G's L.A. flagship on Monday (sorry kids, no good events last night).

• Posh adorns the January 2009 cover of Harper's Bazaar, and inside she talks about high heels, her trademark smirk/smile, wearing tracksuits around the house, and her relationship with the ever-present paparazzi. “I don’t complain about paparazzi because I’ve put myself in that position, and so has David.

• Tina Turner vs. Aretha Franklin! Last week, Tina was asked to comment about that moment when Beyoncé called her "The Queen" during the Grammys, and Aretha got upset. Tina said: "[Aretha's] the queen of soul, and I'm the queen of rock 'n' roll. There were so many kings and queens there that night. Her ego must be so…

What's the protocol at a film premiere these days? Are you actually required to watch the whole movie? And then hang around afterwards and compliment people on it? If so, it explains the rather thin turnout for Eddie Murphy's latest phone-in, Meet Dave (the one where there's a tiny Eddie Murphy in his head.) Indeed,…

The Oscars were a snooze. The MTV Movie Awards were a disgrace. The Bravo A-Lists were a farce. Thank God for the BETs. A great red carpet is made up of elegance, panache, star power and just a pinch of exhibitionism. And the BET Awards, held at LA's Shrine Auditorium last night, had it all, kids. Rihanna, Jennifer…

Last night, Barneys New York in Los Angeles hosted a party for the debut of Rogan For Target. Rogan, the company known for its $250 jeans, is teaming up with Target so us mere middle and lower-class mortals can get our hands on "designer" denim.

Last night in Beverly Hills, Essence hosted a red-carpet event honoring Black Women in Hollywood. Katie Holmes (not black) came! Star Jones (not Hollywood) was also on hand! Katie, of course, looked gorgeous, as did so many of the other women in attendance, including Jada Pinkett Smith, Tatyana Ali (who embraced the…

• Lindsay Lohan's new guy was engaged... until his fiancée, Bree, found out he was dating Lindsay by seeing the tabloid pictures. It's like, hey, will you marry me? Unless I meet a movie star in rehab? [Gatecrasher]
