Enjoying a little post-Oscar action, Natalie Portman was spotted at the 2010 Vanity Fair Oscar Party in Hollywood last night (March 7).

The "Garden State" babe looked amazing in a strapless grey dress as she milled around the Sunset Tower Hotel for the Graydon Carter-hosted bash.

On the career front, Natalie is looking to play double-duty in a new film called "Best Buds," both starring in and producing the flick.

In the film, Natalie will play a woman who is about to have a nervous breakdown before her wedding and subsequently takes a road trip.

Continuing along with what was a busy day, Ashley Greene was spotted heading to the gym in Studio City on Tuesday (July 13).

Fresh off of a grocery run to Ralph's, the Alice Cullen cutie tossed on her sporty gear as she readied for her routine body-toning workout session.

The sighting comes as Miss Greene readies for red carpet duties this evening (July 14), as she'll be making her way to the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles later in the day for the annual ESPY Awards.

The "Twilight" actress joins fellow celebrities acting as presenters including Will Ferrell, Kenny Chesney, Samuel L. Jackson and actor Zac Efron.

Looking to take some beautiful pictures, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony were spotted on the beach in Malibu yesterday (July 13).

Joined by their twins Max and Emme, J. Lo and Marc seemed to be having some minor issues getting the kids to cooperate.

And at one point, the “Waiting for Tonight” songstress bent over a little too far and showed off her underwear to anyone within range.

In related news, Jennifer may be getting sued for upwards of $40 million by a hotel in Cyprus for backing out of her show scheduled for later this month.

She always looks fit and fine, but Gwyneth Paltrow made it clear that her lean figure doesn't come without hard work.

During an interview with the Press Association, the "Iron Man" actress said that, following son Moses' birth in 2006, getting her svelte physique was "by far the hardest thing I have ever done."

"After my first pregnancy, the weight had come off a little bit better but after the second one it was really stubborn. It was really hanging on. It was not easy," Paltrow tells. "But I really was seeing results so it motivated me to just work through it."

With workouts being a key element to slimming down, Gwyneth continued, "Every woman can make time – every woman – and you can do it with your baby in the room. There've been countless times where I've worked out with my kids crawling around all over the place."
