Amanda Seyfried was the lady in red at a screening for her new movie, ‘Epic,’ in New York City. I like this dress: it’s pretty! ‘Epic’ is an animated movie with quite a cast. In addition to Amanda, ‘The Hunger Games’ star Josh Hutcherson provides the voice for one of the characters. Beyonce is another one of the characters, and so is Christoph Waltz.

You have to give Amanda credit: she has quite a diverse list of movies. She starred in the  classic musical ‘Les Miserables,’ did a biopic of porn star Linda Lovelace in ‘Lovelace,’ is in the ensemble comedy ‘The Big Wedding,’ and now she has an animated movie, too. Amanda’s next project could be ANYTHING.

Taylor Swift has been laying low for the past few weeks. After the release of her latest album and all of the romantic drama that comes with it, a low profile is probably for the best for Taylor. Here’s the ‘We are Never Ever Getting Back Together‘ singer shopping with a friend. Taylor looks as cute and ladylike as always.

The miniskirt shows off this girl’s looooong legs! Taylor’s normally not what you would think of when you think “edgy,” but at least the skirt length indicates she is young. Sometimes I almost think she looks a little… matronly. I don’t see any shopping bags, so it looks like Taylor and her friend didn’t find anything at that particular store. Maybe they had better luck at the next one!

Yesterday was an emotional game for David Beckham. It was his final home match with PSG. David announced he plans to retire from soccer after this season. The PSG coach put David in the game in the 81st minute with PSG winning 3-1 against Brest, allowing David to participate and then walk off the field a winner to a standing ovation. As you can see in the gallery, David got a little teary. After the game he said:

“I want to say thank you to everybody in Paris. To my teammates, to the staff, to the fans. It’s been very special to finish my career here. It could not have been any more special.”

PSG has one more away game, but while David will travel with the team, the coach said it’s unlikely he’ll play. David’s sons came onto the field to be with their father while Victoria Beckham and Harper watched from the stands. This is the end of an era in soccer. David will still be HAWT, of course, but these are our final pictures of David steaming up a soccer field. He certainly won’t be forgotten in the sport, I’m sure.

It looks like the reconciliation between ‘Twilight‘ stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart is over. People reports that a “source” are saying Rob and Kristen have split. The source also claims “it would not be surprising” if they reconciled again. Neither Kristen’s nor Robert’s reps could be met for comment.

Robert reportedly skipped out on Kristen’s plans for his 27th birthday last week. Maybe it meant something after all that he didn’t accompany Kristen to the Met Gala as she wanted. Well, I can’t say this is shocking, but it’s too bad. They’re young, and they went through a one-of-a-kind experience together when they became overnight stars with ‘Twilight.’ It’s not surprising they ended up together, but between ‘Twilight’ ending and the cheating scandal, it may be time for them to go their own separate ways. Time will tell…

Kate Hudson had to do a photoshoot yesterday. She took her sons, Ryder and Bingham, to work with her. A working mom’s gotta do what a working mom’s gotta do! While Kate worked it for the camera, Ryder and Bingham played nearby.

It looks like something made Bingham very unhappy for a moment (check out the gallery). Luckily, that frown was turned upside down in no time. I wonder if Kate was doing a photoshoot for her new line for Ann Taylor?
