Nice to know that new dad Brad Pitt’s not too macho to share his Kenra hair products with female co-star Cate Blanchett. While shooting The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttons, “Brad loved the Platinum Silkening Mist, $12″ says the movie’s hairstylist Colleen Balaghan, who used the same product on his bewigged co-star (Cate is a redhead in the film). “I also used the Kenra Daily Provision Leave-In Conditioner, $9, on both Cate and Brad. Whether we are styling their real hair, or their wigs, they both need a light conditioner that will last and keep their hair smooth throughout filming.” Now, did he bring it home for the whole family?

Jennifer Lopez never ceases to amaze us with her inventive style — screen siren sexy one day, sweet and demure the next. And today’s outfit in Paris is no exception. Clad in a white fur vest, a skull-printed Thomas Wylde caftan and towering white leather and wood platform heels, the singer arrived to an instore appearance at the mobbed Virgin Megastore on the Champs-Elysees. Her fans went wild to see her, and one Parisian woman observed that it was “a very 60’s Bohemian look, but honestly it looks great on her.” There is a lot going on in this outfit (there is a chain belt and mega-bling under that vest) but if anyone can pull it off, it’s J. Lo. Tell us: What do you think of J. Lo’s outfit? Is it a hit or a miss?
