Paparazzi Video

The most buff couple in Hollywood hit Julian's art gallery at La Cienega and 3rd Street for the opening of a new photography exhibit. They were so focused on the work adorning the walls that they forgot their primary task - making sure the paparazzi don't photograph them.

When the super-couple finally noticed the photogs outside they moved away into another part of the gallery.

Less shy were father and son James and Scott Caan, who both seemed to enjoy examining the art.

Not surprisingly, the most willing to be photographed celeb was Kim Stewart, who appeared to spend more time hanging out by the big front window than checking out the rest of the exhibit.

After cleaning up at the Teen Choice Awards, Captain Jack Sparrow and his band of pirates headed back to the Black Pearl after a summer hiatus from filming "Pirates of the Caribbean 3."

The cast of next year's sure-to-be box office hit are now back on the ship off the coast of Palos Verdes, Calif.

After filming wrapped for the day on Tuesday evening, Orlando Bloom made a quick escape by jumping in his car and heading out. While Johnny Depp, on the other hand, found time to say hi and take pictures with the dozens of fans waiting to see the actor through a chain link fence that borders the set.

TMZ's cameras and our own Josh Levine were putting in overtime yesterday as they were all over the place catching all the action going down in Tinseltown.

Our first stop was the ever-so-popular lunch spot The Ivy, where we ran into a couple of A-list women. Melanie Griffith and Sharon Stone were spotted exiting the trendy joint, but not before stopping for what seemed to be an awkward moment, you be the judge. The two paparazzi veterans seem to know what they're doing when it comes to cameras pointed in their direction.

Newly out and proud former *NSYNC singer Lance Bass revealed to Us Weekly that he recently enjoyed his first real date with his boyfriend Reichen Lehmkuhl. "He took me out to a really nice dinner the other night at the Hotel Bel-Air," said Bass.

On Saturday, Lance and Reichen enjoyed another date, albeit a less romantic one, at the Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge in the Hamptons. And Reichen had nothing but nice things to say about Bass. Reichen gushed "I have the most beautiful boyfriend in the world."

Reichen, a former captain in the Air Force and winner of CBS' "Amazing Race," also has a new book coming out entitled "Here's What We'll Say," which deals with his experiences as a gay man in the U.S. military.

Now that the not-so-ambiguously-gay duo has gone public with their relationship, they can look forward to many more romantic nights on the town. And fret not because here at TMZ we will ask and we will tell!

Turns out we're all the same when we hit the airport. Super-hot celeb couple Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo flew out of LAX and were faced with the same extensive security screening as the rest of us.

The pair waited in that annoying metal detector line -- Vanessa had to take off her shoes. Still, Vanessa had more smiles than we usually do at the airport. Maybe flying around with Nick by your side is enough to cheer a girl up.

It didn't look like either of them were pulled aside for extra attention from the security staff, even though Nick was looking pretty tough in bad-ass sunglasses and camo pants.

They must have known Nick was no threat. The most dangerous liquids that sensitive man carries these days are his tears.

TMZ's cameraman Josh Levine was at Hollywood hotspot Hyde Monday night were he ran into a few regular faces.

Lindsay Lohan was with boyfriend Harry Morton, heading into the club through the back door, as usual. The "Georgia Rule" star was looking stunning as ever, sporting an old-fashioned bowler hat and a huge smile.

We also caught up with Jason Statham, Brandon Davis, Quincy Jones, who showed up with "Girls Gone Wild" creator Joe Francis, and last but definitely not least, one of Paris' BFFs, Kim Kardashian. OK, we know she's not a celebrity, but she makes for great video.

Nicole Richie's friends have devised some creative ways to shield her from photographers. Sunday night, one pal leaped onto the hood of her black SUV and used his arms and legs to block the windshield.

Friday: Paris' CD signing after-party was at Privilege, and Nicky Hilton, Kevin Connolly and Elliot Mintz were all there to watch the star do a little posing. We caught Paris putting on her makeup just moments before she stepped in front of the cameras.

Eventually they all found their way down the street to Hyde, where rockers Dave Navarro and Travis Barker were hanging out. Orlando Bloom and Andy Garcia were also there, posing and leaving together.

Meanwhile, back at Privilege, Verne Troyer was carried out, his middle finger extended for photographers.

Paris Hilton demonstrated her ability to write her own name over and over on Friday, doing the album signing thing for her very first disc.

A mob of fans arrived at a Los Angeles Best Buy to line up and get autographs and photos -- and Paris had a smile for every one of them.

Later, autograph and photo seekers continued to hound the star as she made her way in and then out of Sunset nightclub Hyde.

To her credit, Paris never got sick of it -- she continued to pose and sign until she was in the car, ready to go home from a big day... and a big night.

TMZ's cameras were rolling in New York City last night and as usual, we caught loads of your favorite celebs.

First, we stopped by MTV to get a quick glimpse of Rev Run and his family striking a pose as they left "TRL."

From there, we checked out the star-studded opening night of Martin Short's new Broadway production, "Martin Short: Fame Becomes Me" where the A-listers were arriving in droves!

Jerry Seinfeld rolled though, along with his good friend and "Seinfeld" co-creator Larry David, while Sarah Jessica Parker hit the red carpet with hubby Matthew Broderick. Tom Hanks and Billy Crystal also hit the scene as well as comedian Chevy Chase who arrived with his family.

TMZ's cameras, led by our own Josh Levine, were doing what they do best as they hit the streets of LA to bring you another action packed Star Catcher.

First stop of the evening was the ever-so-crowded Hollywood Blvd. where we ran into Oscar winner Billy Bob Thornton as he was driving by. We also stopped by the "Snakes On A Plane" premiere, and caught a quick glimps of the snake charmer himself, Samuel L. Jackson.

Next stop was Hyde, were we caught up with one of TMZ's favorite blondes Elisha Cuthbert, future oscar nominee Tara Reid and Natalie Portman's ex-boyfriend Lucas Haas. Ashlee Simpson also gave us the ol' thumbs up as she tried to make her way into the club.

TMZ's cameras and very own Josh Levine put in overtime Wednesday to bring you another exciting version of Star Catcher.

Our first stop was Il Sole, a popular restaurant to the stars, where we spotted Courteney Cox and hubby David Arquette. The couple made their way to their SUV with the usual paparazzi flashes and autograph seekers.

Second was celeb hot spot Mr Chow, where we ran into funny man Keenen Ivory Wayans and TMZ's number one fan Ben Stein.

From there we moved to Koi. Stacy Keibler and Kimberly Stewart enjoyed the scene, while Kevin Connolly showed up without girlfriend Nicky Hilton.

TMZ cameras were working overtime on Tuesday night as they hit the streets of NY to bring you this version of Star Catcher.

First stop of the evening was celeb favorite Marquee, where Christina Aguilera was on hand to celebrate the release of her new album "Back to Basics." The blonde bombshell tantalized fans in her sleek, white dress before setting the paparazzi into a flashbulb frenzy. Also showing up to support the Grammy winner was Babyface and former "Idol" Mario Vazquez.

From there we checked up on an old friend of TMZ, Natalie Reid AKA "Fake Paris". The famous impersonator hit the town with a group of friends to celebrate her six-page spread in the current issue of Playboy. You might also recognize Natalie from a recent episode of "The Simple Life," where she came face to face with the real socialite.

Check out all the action in this NY version of Star Catcher.

With the constant media buzz surrounding Britney Spears (the good, the bad, and the down right embarrassing), one wonders what goes on in Brit's mind every time the pop star steps foot outside to face the paparazzi. Now, for the first time, TMZ has the inside scoop on what Britney may be thinking

Sources working at a recording studio where Britney was working Friday told TMZ that as she walked to her car in this video, the singer told herself- out loud- "Please don't trip! Please don't trip! Please don't trip!"

They also told TMZ that on that day they just couldn't get over how sweet and polite she was to everybody around her.

TMZ got up close and extremely personal with perennial maniac Steve-O last night, as the Jackass star unleashed a barrage of secrets about some of Hollywood's leading starlets. Steve-O invited our own Josh Levine inside his private residence, where he touched on everything from sex rumors to feuds. Steve-O even appears to get teary eyed, when discussing his feelings for rumored ex-girlfriend Nicole Richie.

It was Lindsay Lohan to the rescue last night, after "Jackass" star Steve-O was told he was a persona non grata at popular Hollywood hangout Hyde. When bouncers refused to admit the daredevil past the exclusive velvet rope, Steve-O did what any huge star would do. He name dropped, saying "I'm supposed to meet Lindsay Lohan here!" Apparently, the bouncers weren't amused.

After management instructed him to hit the road, Steve-O began texting Lohan, begging for her to help with the situation.

Before the club drama even began, Steve-O gave a staunch defense of Lohan for TMZ's cameras, blasting Paris Hilton and Brandon Davis for their infamous anti-Lindsay rant.

"You know what's disgusting to me is that f*&%-ing billionaire brat, because how much money has he ever made on his own... zero!"
