While so many other young women in Hollywood are typecast based on physical appearance, Swank has earned the right to control her own destiny based on her powerful performances in Boys Don't Cry and Million Dollar Baby. Her turn as Teena Brandon in the 1999 independent film Boys Don't Cry, shot on a shoestring budget, won universal acclaim as well as the statuette for Best Actress at the 2000 Academy Awards. In 2005, she proved that she wasn't a one-trick pony when she won the Best Actress Oscar, SAG and Golden Globe for her performance in Million Dollar Baby.

Usually we do separate best and worst dressed post for the Oscars, but there wasn't any truly atrocious fashion among the big names, and that's a disappointment. Like the ceremony itself, the red carpet seemed to go off without a hitch with a few minor bumps. Everyone looked lovely, with no one really nailing it or or failing miserably. There's been criticism that the actresses are playing it too safe on the red carpet, and it's true that there wasn't anyone to point in awe or laugh at.

If you just look at Renee Zellweger's dress and not her hair (I'm trying to be nice here) it was amazing. Her beaded gown was incredible, and she usually plays it too safe in Carolina Herrerra, but this time the designer really came through for her. Hilary Swank looked flawless, and maybe that's because when I saw her close up during her interviews her makeup was perfect. Her dress also was a good balance between simple lines a and a moderate risk, but both MSat and Jaybird told me she looked boring. Read the rest of this entry »

We admit it – we're easy to please.  Give us a hot guy with ridiculously defined abs wearing little more than a cape and a loincloth and we're pretty happy.  Make him intelligent and capable of acting and you've got hunky Scottish actor Gerard Butler.   Gerard may be best known for his role as King Leonidas in the movie "300", but this tough guy's career is really taking off.  His other films include "The Phantom of the Opera" and the second Lara Croft movie (trust us, between Gerard and Anglina, the flick was hotness overload).  These days, you can catch him on the big screen playing the dead and endlessly romantic hubby of Hilary Swank's...
