VIDEO: Kate Moss Puckers Up With Diorkiss

The (fashion) show really does go on! Monday, Dior premiered a sultry commercial featuring Kate Moss at the brand’s spring 2011 ready-to-wear runway show in Paris. The fast-paced short, created by Jonas Åkerlund, oscillates from an intimate one-on-one with the model in her lavish hotel room to a voyeuristic view into her glamorous fishbowl. Seemingly the only respite from the fashion frenzy is her Dior Addict lipstick in Diorkiss #578, which she applies no fewer than three times. Before extending a gorgeous long leg from her chauffeured ride, Moss admits, “A girl can’t make an entrance without her lipstick.” So that’s where she gets her confidence! –Justine Harman

Haircut Alert: Pete Wentz ‘Tames the Mane’

Pete Wentz is not afraid of changing up his look: the rocker worked the “emo swoosh,” switched to a close crop and most recently, let his curly locks go au naturale. And Sunday, a day after meeting up with estranged wife Ashlee Simpson, Wentz made yet another switch, posting a picture of himself on his personal site with the caption “tame the mane.” The 31-year-old — who’d let his hair get really high in recent weeks — let his tresses go free in January in order to slash a few minutes from his getting-ready routine. “The amount of maintenance that went into my [straight] hair was ridiculous,” he told PEOPLE. “My son, he’s got this full head of awesome curly hair, and when he gets out of the bath he’s so stoked. I want to get out of the shower and just be stoked, not think about how I don’t want water to touch my hair.” We’re fans of the new look — it’s a little lighter for spring — but we want to know what you think. Tell us: Do you like Wentz’s new cut? Kate Hogan

Little Monsters, unite: Lady Gaga has harnessed her creative powers to aid the earthquake victims of Japan. Friday, the singer announced via Twitter that she’d designed a red-and-white wristband that reads “We pray for Japan” in both English and Japanese, and comes stamped with her signature symbol: the claw. The superstar, who previously displayed her great admiration for Tokyo fans on her arms, is donating all proceeds of the $5 bracelet to relief efforts — and buyers are encouraged to give even more if they can. They must be: Monday, the singer told followers she’d already raised $250,000 through sales. To grab the gear for yourself (and your fellow monsters), click here.

Jessica Alba’s Pregnancy Style: No Lycra!

Jessica Alba is always one of Hollywood’s best dressed, but lately, the mom-to-be has been modifying her look to accommodate her growing belly. “It’s tough because your body, the shape is totally different,” Alba told PEOPLE Thursday night during a dinner at Il Sole in Los Angeles celebrating the new book What To Wear, Where. “But I do feel more feminine.” Looking radiant in a Proenza Schouler dress and Aperlai pumps, the actress said she prefers “chic and timeless” over “lyrca and loud prints” — which makes dressing for baby all the more effortless. “When you have bigger breasts and bottom and tummy, [you] embrace the flowy dress,” she explained. “And I [will] probably wear a lot more boy cuts. I think [it's about] just getting to know my body and what I feel good in, and knowing what silhouettes are flattering.” During dinner, Alba cozied up to husband Cash Warren and swapped stories with her equally stylish 9-months-pregnant pal, Rachel Zoe. Luckily for the actress, already mom to 2-year-old daughter Honor, pregnancy has been a bit less stressful the second time around. “It’s definitely not as daunting,” she said. “I definitely popped earlier than I did with Honor because the second time around your body has the memory [of the first pregnancy]. Having the belly grow is fun and exciting.” –Michelle Ward
