Website of the Day: Trip Kick

GeekSugar — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 13:00:29 PDT

Anyone not living under a rock these days usually goes to websites for hotels to stay in, but sometimes it's not enough to know that your hotel has a certain amount of stars before you go - don't you want to know about your room?

Trip Kick is the site that will tell you what rooms or floors to avoid for noise, traffic, or smoking, and will advise you which rooms are what you want, like corners with more space, so you can maximize your stay anywhere.

Trust me, you don't want to spend hundreds in a fancy hotel just to be on the ground floor facing some bodega's neon lights.

Lauren Turner — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 17:00:00 PST

Angelina Jolie had a meeting with German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle in Berlin today. She and Guido sat down for tea to discuss Angelina's role with the UNHCR. Angelina made time for the important chat before getting ready to hit the red carpet at the Berlin Film Festival tomorrow. Her In the Land of Blood and Honey is in the running for best feature along with Diane Kruger's Farewell, My Queen and 16 others. Jake Gyllenhaal is one of the festival's judges, and he helped kick things off at yesterday's opening ceremony. The overseas trip hasn't been all about work for Angelina, since she took Maddox, Pax, and Shiloh to Legoland. The Jolie-Pitts will soon return to the US, since Angelina is set to be a presenter at the Oscars on Feb. 26.

Lauren Turner — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 09:58:35 PST

Lauren Conrad had a Starbucks in hand as she landed at LAX last night. She returned home after taking off on a trip last week. The getaway coincided with Lauren's 26th birthday, which we celebrated with a look at LC's cutest Twitter pictures. It's usually a busy time of year for the reality star turned designer since NY Fashion Week kicks off tomorrow, but she won't be showing her Paper Crown line on the runway like she did last year. Instead, she's gearing up for Valentine's Day and shared a fun DIY gift that would be perfect to give to a girlfriend on her website. LC may not be currently attached, but she's been seen out with multiple male friends recently including the good-looking guy she dined out with in LA last month.

Kate, Diane, and Salma Open Prada's 24-Hour Museum

Allie Merriam — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 06:52:50 PST

Kate Moss, Diane Kruger, and Salma Hayek got together for a Couture Fashion Week bash in Paris last night. The event was held to mark the opening of Prada’s 24 h Museum. The project is the brainchild of Prada and Italian artist Francesco Vezzoli, and is open only for today. Things kicked off last night with a private dinner, then Kate took a turn in the DJ booth once the dancing began.

Salma walked inside the city's Palais d'Iéna alongside her husband, François-Henri Pinault. Neither Kate nor Diane had their main men by their sides. Joshua Jackson, Diane's boyfriend, has been busy at the Sundance Film Festival, while Kate's husband Jamie Hince evidently didn't make the trip to Paris. It was the end of a busy day for Kate. She started yesterday morning at a Mango press event in London, then made her way to Paris for the party with some of her friends, including Marianne Faithfull, Anna Wintour, and Emmanuelle Alt.

David Beckham hit the field with his two youngest sons, Romeo and Cruz Beckham, in LA yesterday. The boys kicked around a soccer ball before joining in a game with their teammates. David watched while Romeo and Cruz played, but he also apparently made time to pose with a few fans on the sidelines. Victoria and Harper weren't spotted at the match, as they've been in the UK. Victoria ate at pal Gordon Ramsay's new restaurant, Bread Street Kitchen, in London over the weekend while David lunched with Romeo and Cruz on the West Coast. David will soon make a trip to Northern California, where he'll participate in a live chat with GoogleTalks this Thursday.

The Bridesmaids Team Talks Male Strippers and a Potential Sequel

Lindsay Miller — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 19:04:46 PST

Several of the ladies from Bridesmaids and two of the guys behind the scenes - director Paul Feig and producer Judd Apatow - stopped by the press room after picking up their award for best comedy at tonight's Critics' Choice Awards. Kristen Wiig wasn't on hand to join her costars, but her writing partner Annie Mumolo got a moment in the spotlight as the group stopped to chat with reporters backstage. The team, which also included Maya Rudolph, Ellie Kemper, and Wendi McLendon-Covey, addressed rumors of a Bridesmaids 2 and dished on a bonding trip the women took to a male strip club. Judd kicked things off by giving one reporter a friendly ribbing when he asked if the cast ad-libbed on set.

Judd on a possible sequel: "Bridesmaids 2! Now we're getting to the meat of this. Will we ad lib on Bridesmaids 2? No. We will consider it. We'll have some meetings and see if we can afford it. Bridesmaids 2. I mean, maybe if we come up with an amazing idea . . . . Well, we're busy right now writing Caddyshack 3."

Maya on her reaction to the win: "I feel pretty fantastic. I don't think anyone behind me that's looking at my butt right now would disagree, because the truth is, this movie is indeed special. So the way people have responded to this movie was above and beyond our expectations . . . We all love each other and each others' work a lot and we all know how deserving the other person is."

Annie on the cast's visit to a male strip club: "Kristen had a say in that as well, but yeah, we just thought it would be a good place to kind of break the ice, get people loose, and it's funny, because people really did come out of their shells when the men came out and took off their clothes. There were lots of theme attires, and oil, and rubbing. There was rubbing."

Jennifer Lopez and her boyfriend Casper Smart lounged on the deck of a yacht off the coast of Florida last week. The duo got away to Miami Beach, where they celebrated New Year's at Amnesia. J Lo and Casper kissed and danced during the night out, but their trip wasn't all about couple's time. J Lo's twins, Max and Emme, also joined them in the sunny spot and J Lo was spotted shopping with Emme over the weekend while Casper went go-cart racing with friends. Jennifer and Casper were back together yesterday strolling hand in hand around Miami's high-end Lincoln Road. Their new romance was one of the hottest headlines of 2011, and it looks like the relationship is going strong as they kick off 2012.
