They’re rumored to have sparked an off-screen romance, and Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana were side-by-side at “The Words” premiere during the 2012 Sundance Film Festival on Friday night (January 27). The “Hangover” hunk and the “Avatar” beauty were joined by Bradley’s brother, John Cooper, as well as co-stars Ben Barnes and Dennis Quaid for the Park City, Utah cinema festivities. With directors Brian Klugman and Lee Sternthal also on-hand, “The Words” sees “an aspiring writer claim another man’s long lost work as his own, and the price he must pay is more than he could have ever imagined.” Talking with the AP at the premiere, Miss Saldana revealed that her role as Cooper’s wife led her to think deeply about how she approaches relationships and unconditional love. “Like how unconditional am I when I’m in love. Do you bypass certain things? Would I be able to be with a man — or with someone — that feels incomplete, doesn’t matter what we do?” the 33-year-old said. “If we change this, if we get married, if we have a baby — just someone that feels incomplete. Would I be able to deal with that for so many years and accept them as who they are and go, `Come as you are. This is who I fell in love with and I don’t want to change you?’ Zoe continued, “I’m not like that, which is why I wanted to play her, because it was a challenge, you know. Look at me, I totally said I’m not unconditional at all. So awful.”Photo Credit: Getty Images

Back in Tinseltown after a family trip to Dallas, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian were side-by-side for a midday lunch date in Beverly Hills on Friday (January 27). The E! reality sisters were both looking chic as they paid a visit to a friend’s house for a bite to eat before departing the ritzy residence and heading their separate ways. The sighting comes as Kim and Kourtney are gearing up for this weekend’s airing of the season two finale of their reality spinoff “Kourtney & Kim Take New York.” In a recently released preview, Kim can be seen opening up to Kourtney and her beau Scott Disick, as the reality TV starlet tells, “I had dinner with him last night one-on-one and I was going crazy. I had nothing to talk about,” explaining, “He’s a good heart. He’s a Christian. He’s everything on paper exactly what I want in someone, but for some reason, my heart isn’t connecting.” Sobbing, the 31-year-old brunette beauty goes on, “You think I feel good that I met this guy from Minnesota… I feel awful that I like, made him move out here and change his whole life. I feel sad, I feel bad for the guy, I changed his whole life and he fell in love with me and I fell in love with him and now my feelings have changed.” Don’t miss the dramatic season finale airing this Sunday, January 29 at 10/9c on E!

Sigh. The mom of young Isabella Barrett of Toddlers & Tiaras fame is suing the MEDIA for over-sexualizing her daughter … by reporting on Isabella’s “Sexy And I Know It” cover . Susanna Barrett claims media outlets, in reporting that event, portrayed her five-year-old daughter in an “overly sexualized manner.” Right. All the media’s fault. In court papers, Susanna claims Isabella “did not act or portray herself sexually, erotically or provocatively” and that coverage of her performance was unfair.’ Isabella Barrett Sings “Sexy and I Know It” “She was not ‘gyrating’ at a ‘nightclub’ or singing ‘about her sex appeal,” the elder Barrett claims incredulously. “On the contrary, it is the defendants who, through their articles … thrust these false and vulgar characteristics on to Isabella.” Yes, this is a real story. The delusional mother seems to see nothing wrong with having her daughter sing a sexually-themed LMFAO song. The media talking about it though? Shame. Thanks to TMZ, The Huffington Post, The Daily Mail and other celebrity news sources, “Isabella is now perceived sexually, erotically and pornographically.” Suing for $30 million, Barrett adds, “[The articles] place Isabella in physical danger, attracting the attention of others who would seek to sexualize a child.” Well, on those grounds, can someone sue her for $30 million too then?

Tilda Swinton ‘Fortunate’ to Have Fashionable Friends Dressing Her

Neil Rasmus/BFAnyc/Sipa She sometimes wears outfits too complex to understand, but Tilda Swinton’s role as a fashion icon is indisputable. So it’s surprising to hear that the most major tool in the actress’s arsenal of style is something, well, quite unconventional. “For me, it’s just a matter of having a box cutter to open the [dress] box,” she told PEOPLE at New York’s Core Club Tuesday night during a screening of Here , a short film she co-wrote for the Luxury Collection Hotels and Resorts. “I turn up in a pair of old corduroy trousers, and I’m very fortunate to have friends who send me boxes [with gowns],” she continued. “It’s like the Cinderella complex. It’s the friends that make the effort, not me.” Swinton, who wore a sharp white Céline suit to Tuesday’s event, said that often, her couture outfits fit with minimal tailoring. “There is a little effort that goes into the planning, like, weeks ago,” she admitted, “but at this stage, it’s only a matter of opening the box.” That will likely be the procedure Sunday night, when Swinton dresses up for the Screen Actors Guild awards (she’s nominated for best actress for We Need to Talk About Kevin ). However, with her film out of the Oscar race, the actress doesn’t think she’ll attend the big awards on Feb. 26 — and is slightly relieved she won’t be looking for yet another outfit. “It would be a luxury problem,” she said, “but it’s a win-win situation, if you know what I mean.” Regardless, Swinton’s friends and admirers ( Anne Hathaway and Simon Doonan among them) always look forward to the star’s fashion moments. “It’s effortless,” model Agyness Deyn, who stars in Here , told PEOPLE. “She’s so talented … such an amazing person.” Tell us: Are you a fan of Swinton’s style? –Jeffrey Slonim GET PUMPED FOR THE NEXT ROUND OF RED CARPET MOMENTS

Jean Paul Gaultier Pays Homage to Amy Winehouse at Fashion Show; Family Rages on Twitter

Designer Jean Paul Gaultier paid homage to Amy Winehouse’s unique style at his Paris runway show earlier this week. Imitation is the highest form of flattery, right? Wrong, if you’re the late singer’s father, Mitch Winehouse. “We don’t support the Jean Paul Galtier [sic] collection. It is in poor taste,” the elder Winehouse tweeted, incensed at his daughter’s image being used to sell clothes. “The family was upset to see those pictures. They were a total shock,” he told The Sun . “We’re still grieving, and we’ve had a difficult week with the six-month anniversary of Amy’s death.” Mitch said Gaultier’s show portrayed “a view of Amy when she was not at her best, [glamorizing] some of the more upsetting times in her life.” Mitch felt it inappropriate to try and cash in on his daughter’s legacy. “To see her image lifted wholesale to sell clothes was a wrench we were not expecting or consulted on. We’re proud of her influence on fashion but find black veils on models, smoking cigarettes with a barbershop quartet singing her music in bad taste.” He wasn’t the only harsh critic of the celebrity fashion designer. Kelly Osbourne, a close friend of Amy Winehouse , also Tweeted in response: “Although @JPGaultier was paying homage to my friend and icon to the world, I found it to be lucratively selfish and distasteful. Exploitation=evil.” [Photo: WENN.com]
