Nine of Hollywood’s hottest female stars were honored last night at Elle Magazine’s 18th Annual Women in Hollywood tribute.

The women celebrated this year included Barbra Streisand, Jennifer Aniston, Freida Pinto, Evan Rachel Wood, Naomi Watts, Michelle Pfeiffer, Viola Davis, Stacey Snider and Elizabeth Olsen, who received the Calvin Klein Collection Emerging Star award.

The clear winner of the night was Streisand, who picked up the L’Oreal Paris Legend award. Most of the women at the event looked up to and were inspired by the singer/actress’ career. Oscar-winner Kathryn Bigelow, who directed “The Hurt Locker,” called Streisand “a world icon” and “somebody who has mastered virtually every art form imaginable: directing, acting, composing, singing, producing, writing,” as she introduced her on stage.

Fellow nominee Aniston told the singer that she loved her, and Pinto added that she was honored just to be “sharing the same oxygen” with Streisand.

“You’re a legend not only in Hollywood but literally all over the world,” Pinto said to Streisand. “I can say that because I come from India.”

In her acceptance speech, Streisand told the crowd that only seven percent of the top 250 films were directed by women, and she encouraged those in the audience to continue to break barriers in the entertainment industry. “Let’s be bold and don’t wait for the phone to ring,” she said. “Create your own material. Tell me a story.”

The on-again-off-again couple Sean Penn and Robin Wright are officially over according to PEOPLE. The former couple have reached a private agreement on all the particulars involved in such a divorce (child and spousal support, split of assets, child support).

The couple, have had a very tumultuous relationship. They began dating in the 90′s after Sean’s marriage to Madonna fell apart. They have two children together, Dylan born in 1991, and daughter Hopper, born in 1993. They were married in 1996. They first filed for divorce in 2007, but later reconciled. After that didn’t work out – they filed for divorce again, and this time it’s official.

In August Robin Wright commented on the split to More Magazine. She was quoted as saying “I hit that crossroad a while ago,” Wright  says. “I know what I don’t want.”

Rumor has it Sean Penn has moved on with 26-year-old model Jessica White.

I don’t think I’m a fan, what do you think?  Maybe since divorcing Sean Penn, she needs a change?

Robin Wright Penn moved her family out of Hollywood after witnessing Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daily struggle with photographers.

The Forrest Gump star, who filed for divorce from Sean Penn in August, packed up their home because she didn’t want her two children growing up in a “weird” community obsessed with celebrity.

She says, “I didn’t want to raise my kids in this weird, sycophantic society. If you have celebrity parents, it’s not a good recipe for the kids, or anyone at any age. Look at what Brad and Angelina go through.”

Robin Wright Penn has filed for divorce from her husband Sean Penn, People has learned.

Papers were filed in Marin County, Calif., on Wednesday, Aug. 12.

Wright Penn’s filing states that “both parties have already agreed to [shared] custody” over their minor son, Hopper Jack, 16, and that “the estranged couple have already agreed to division of all property.”

Together since 1989 and married in 1996, the couple endured a roller-coaster relationship, filing papers of legal separation not once, but twice – only to patch things up again as recently as May.

In an interview released Monday, the actress told More magazine that she had no plans to reconcile with her husband. “I hit that crossroad a while ago,” she said. “I know what I don’t want.”


Regarding the much-discussed marriage of the two actors, friends tell More magazine for its September issue that the couple had a “peculiar chemistry.” Wright herself said, “I, we, have two amazing children we raised together.”

This fall, daughter Dylan Frances, 18, is headed off to college, with son Hopper Jack preparing to follow suit.
