Here are some new pictures from US Weekly’s “Hot Hollywood 2012″ party which was held last night in Hollywood. A good number of celebrities turned out, mostly women. Kim Kardashian showed up without her boyfriend Kanye. What do you think of her dress? I don’t mind it – but I think I like Julianne Hough’s more (below). A little side boob never hurt anyone!

Check out all the pictures below! Who’s your best dressed?

Oh man, his hair is so bad!

“Rush” is a film about iconic British racing driver James Hunt. In this scene James is marrying 1970s supermodel Suzy Miller (played by actress Olivia Wilde). In real life Miller soon fell in love with Hunt’s friend Richard Burton. Hunt and Burton famously negotiated a transfer of assets, with Burton paying the $1 million divorce settlement that Hunt owed Miller and then subsequently married her.

Wow, Brett Ratner certainly doesn’t hold back. But after reading this article, I can’t say I blame him. Apparently Olivia Munn wrote a book, and in the book she talked about sleeping with a Hollywood director – and pointed out his “undersized manhood”. During an interview to promote his new film ‘Tower Heist’, he admits that he was the director, but she didn’t get all her facts right.

Brett Ratner appeared on G4′s Attack of the Show for just a little over six minutes, but that was plenty of time to cover a wide range of topics. The director took the time to delve into his new film, Tower Heist, the upcoming Oscars (which Ratner is producing), Occupy Wall Street (a “viral marketing” campaign for Tower Heist, according to Show co-host Kevin Pereira), and sex with Olivia Munn. Wait, what?

For those unaware of the gossip, Munn wrote in her memoir, Suck It, Wonder Woman!: The Misadventures of a Hollywood Geek, that she once saw a Hollywood director she had dated holding his “undersized manhood” while eating shrimp. It’s long been rumored that she was referring to Rush Hour director Ratner, and while he did admit on Show Thursday that he was the subject of the passage, he’s claiming that none of it’s true. And making sure to heighten the drama while he’s at it. “I used to date Olivia Munn … when she was Lisa,” said Ratner of Munn, née Lisa Munn. “That was the problem. She wasn’t Asian back then.”

But Ratner didn’t stop there: “She was hanging out on my set of After the Sunset, I banged her a few times … but I forgot her,” he said. “Because she changed her name … I didn’t know it was the same person. So when she came and auditioned for me for a TV show, I forgot her, she got pissed off and she made up all these stories about me eating shrimp and masturbating in my trailer. And my shortcomings. She talked about my shortcomings. I get it. She’s bitter.”

(Munn’s rep has yet to respond to EW’s request for comment regarding Ratner’s words.)

Serious props to Pereira, who changed the mood of the gossip-y conversation by responding, “To be fair, you did ask for a shrimp cocktail in the green room today.” Ratner did, however, have one nice thing to say about Munn… sort of. “I think she’s a lovely nice girl. It’s not the same girl that I met, actually. Olivia and Lisa are two completely different girls.”

I think they both come off as losers in this story. I think she shouldn’t have brought it up in the first place – and he’s got no business talking about it now.

And what’s with this “back when she wasn’t Asian” bit? What in the world is he talking about?

The movie is based on a true story – and will star Channing Tatum as the male stripper. Tatum, who has admitted to stripping before becoming an actor is the perfect choice for the role!

“This was a wild and pivotal time in my life and I couldn’t be more thrilled to go down the rabbit hole with Steven (Soderbergh),” Tatum said in a statement. Soderbergh was similarly excited.

“When Channing talked to me about this, I thought it was one of the best ideas I’d ever heard for a movie,” the Oscar-winning director said. “I said I wanted in immediately. It’s sexy, funny and shocking. We’re using Saturday Night Fever as our model, so hopefully we’re on the right track.”

The film costars Alex Pettyfer, Matthew McConaughey and Olivia Munn.

Pictures are finally rolling in on Steven Soderbergh’s new film, ‘Magic Mike’. The movie is a film about a stripper (Channing Tatum) who takes a fellow exotic dancer (Alex Pettyfer) under his wing. Both dancers work at club Xquisite, which is run by Dallas, a retired dancer played by Matthew McConaughey.

The film is loosely based on Channing’s own experiences. He was an exotic dancer before breaking into acting.

Channing was spotted today in between filming scenes with co-stars Olivia Munn and Wendi McLendon-Covey in Los Angeles. ‘Magic Mike’ also stars True Blood hunk Joe Manganiello, White Collar hottie Matt Bomer, and British actor Alex Pettyfer.

Wonder if any “stripper” photos will surface from the set?

Nicole Kidman and a slew of other celebrities attended the premiere of Wendi Murdoch’s new film, “Snowflower And The Secret Fan” in NYC. Wendi is the wife of Rupert Murdoch who is at the center of one of the biggest scandals to rock the UK. His paper, ‘News of the World’ was accused of tapping into cell phones, and ultimately the 160+ year old paper closed its doors earlier this week.

Other celebrities include Courtney Love, Famke Janssen and Olivia Munn.
