Emmy Rossum Plays The Princess At Museum Party

Where’s the tiara, Emmy Rossum? The Phantom Of The Opera star looked quite the princess at last night’s dance at the American Natural History Museum in NYC, putting her hair in a bun and piling jewelry on top of a low-cut sequined top. Liking the look? Check out the gallery (including guests like Claire Danes, Charlotte Ronson, Michelle Trachtenberg and Ivanka Trump) and let us know in our TheFABLife poll.

Don’t Even Think About It, Zach Braff

Zach Braff & Emmy Rossum

Even before we animated the eyebrows, there was just something off about this photo of Zach Braff and Emmy Rossum chilling at the Darker Side Of Climate Change Debate event in NYC. Not that we could blame Braff for making a move on the Phantom Of The Opera star if the opportunity arose—anyone who’d date Counting Crow Adam Duritz in the last year is obviously fair game for a sensitive Scrub like him. Among the stars with better things to do than “ooh” at completely innocent celebrity candids were Maggie Gyllenhaal, Rev Run, Kevin Bacon and Sarah Silverman, who moderated a debate on the very serious matter (climate change, not whether Zach Braff was looking for action). See photos from the event in the gallery below.

Whitney Port Ignores Lawsuit, Parties In NYC

Whitney Port, Katrina Bowden & Emmy Rossum

If Whitney Port is bothered by a lawsuit alleging another designer did most of the work on her “Whitney Eve,” she did a good job hiding it at the Ecco Domani Fashion Party in NYC last night, mingling with Emmy Rossum and 30 Rock’s Katrina Bowden. Maybe the fact that her accuser admits to never signing a single contract has her less than fretful about the outcome. See photos of the ladies at play in the gallery below.

Emmy Rossum Met Adam Duritz On Twitter

58584067

How 2009! The new way to find romance, according to starlet Emmy Rossum, is on Twitter. That’s how she found her new beau, singer Adam Duritz. “I was on tour with the band this summer. They invited me actually on Twitter, she said. “That’s how we met - on a dare. They dared me to come sing with them a song I’d never sung before. So I ended up on tour with the band, and it was very, very fun.”

Emmy is being much more public with this relationship than with her last: her marriage to Justin Siegel which ended in August, which she kept very secret. “It’s hard to have a private life and keep it private and hope that people don’t pick you apart,” she said. As for her divorce, she says all she wants is freedom, “so that I can move onto another chapter of my life, find happiness.” [Source: People.com; Photo: Getty Images]

Jennifer Aniston Sings At Broadway Benefit

Jennifer Aniston, Ashton Kutcher & Demi Moore

While we hate to imagine it was the highlight of the night, Jennifer Aniston’s rendition of “Yellow Submarine” was apparently one of the most memorable moments from last night’s 24-Hour Play event on Broadway, which raised money for the Urban Arts Partnership. Aniston and her pals acted out 6 10-minute scenes that were written, cast and performed within a 24-hour period. Apparently a bit of a date night, some of the couples attending included Ashton Kutcher & Demi Moore, Naomi Watts & Liev Schreiber, Emily Blunt & John Krasinski and David Cross & Amber Tamblyn. See who else came out for the kids in the gallery below.

While fashion-forward fellows like Jon Bon Jovi and James Franco attended last night’s 26th Annual Night Of Stars in NYC, we couldn’t help but notice all the famous ladies flying solo for Fashion Group International’s prestigous award ceremony. Emmy Rossum was there without Adam Duritz, Gwen Stefani without Gavin Rossdale, and even Iman left David Bowie at home. Dita Von Teese and Evan Rachel WoodMarilyn Manson’s ex-wife and the then-teeanger he left her for—managed to hit the carpet without making it any redder. See who else showed up in the gallery below.

Style Wars: Girls In Gold

On opposite sides of the Atlantic last night, two glam ladies rocked stylish gold gowns. Emmy Rossum was at Fashion Group International’s 26th annual Night Of Stars at Cipriani Wall Street, NYC, wearing a beautiful draped dress that showed off her elegant figure. While in London, the ubiquitous Mel B went for full on bling in this glittering gold number. But which hottie looked better in the jewel-like color? [Photos: WENN]

Pop star du jour Lady Gaga continued her crusade for marriage equality this weekend in Washington DC. She spoke at the National Equality MarchÂ?before roughly 250,000 LGBT activists and straight allies.Â?During her passionate address, she stated that speaking at the march was the single most important moment in her career. While her speech was mostly poised and poignant, her trademark Gaga outrageousness surfaced at one point, as she screamed “ARE YOU LISTENING?!?” to President Obama. A source that was in the midst of the crowd on the Mall said she had the otherwise-rowdy crowd captivated in silence as she spoke. You go Gaga! Â?[Photo: Splash New Online]

The quest for marriage equality was nationwide yesterday as celebritiesÂ?Sophia Bush, Emmy Rossum, Perez Hilton,Â?Kelly OsbourneÂ?and others marched in West Hollywood to protest Prop 8.

See photos from both events below.Â?

Stars, Strong Winds Attend Ballet Gala In NYC

JoAnna Garcia & Emily Rossum

Yesterday was one of the windiest NYC has seen in a while, sending the dresses at The American Ballet Theatre’s Fall Gala 2009 flying like tiles off the top of a Brooklyn brownstone. Among the victims were Gossip Girl’s Joanna Garcia, Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis and Emmy Rossum, though the dreads of Rossum’s rebound rocker, Counting Crows singer Adam Duritz, paid the breeze no mind. Watch the hair fly in the gallery below.

It’s Divorce For Emmy Rossum

Emmy-Rossum

Emmy Rossum is getting divorced, not that we even knew she was married in the first place. Follow this carefully: the actress ’s husband Justin Siegel has filed for divorce, after 18 months of marriage. OK so far. But no-one was aware the couple were married until they separated this past August. Eh? The couple had requested a confidential marriage licence on getting wed in 2008, but there’s nothing secret now about their split, and Justin’s requests for spousal support and for Emmy to pay his legal expenses.

Gah. Funny how the most romantic gesture - well, we’re assuming that’s what keeping it secret was all about - can turn into the most depressingly obvious one.Â? [Photo: Splash News Online]
