Like rare bird, Mad Men‘s Jon Hamm has become one of the more coveted celebrity sightings at this year’s TIFF. (We haven’t spotted him yet, but have been swooning vicariously.) Hamm is in TO to support Ben Affleck‘s The Town, which premiered last night. Also on the red carpet were Hamm’s co-stars Blake Lively, who […]

Here’s a TIFF party you don’t need an invite for: Tomorrow, September 12, the TIFF Bell Lightbox is throwing a huge block party to celebrate the grand opening of Toronto’s newest movie house. The ribbon cutting is at noon, but musical festivities happen all day. The line-up includes Fefe Dobson, The Sadies, and, just announced, […]

Big day over here up in Yorkville, namely at the Four Seasons for a luncheon with gossip guru George Christy. While the lunch itself had the strictest guestlist, the less rigidly-guarded opening reception turned out to be quite fruitful for celeb spotting. First, we had Jennifer Garner in the Four Seasons lobby in a grey […]

Mickey Rourke and Megan Fox hit the red carpet last night for the premiere of Mitch Glazer’s Passion Play. Fox, who arrived with new husband Brian Austin Green, wore a simple twisted frock. Co-stars Bill Murray and Kelly Lynch, in a sequins-and-feathers confection, also made a appearance. Click the images below to see pics from […]

Last night Alliance hosted a bash for Toronto industry insiders and visiting talent to sling back a couple of cocktails under the shadow of the appropriately shiny Scotia Bank tower.

Who did we see? There were rumours of Clive Owen and David Schwimmer, but alas, no. We did however get Juliette Lewis, who’s in town supporting Conviction with Hilary Swank. You could tell she was there as an actress, rather than rock star by her teeny tiny emerald green Dolce & Gabbana. She gushed to red carpet reporters about loving TIFF for how laid back it is. Yeah, we get that a lot.

Milla Jovovich took to the red carpet at the Visa Screening Room last night for the screening of John Curran’s Stone at the Toronto International Film Festival. Jovovich, wearing a perforated leather dress and massive bib necklace, was joined by co-stars Edward Norton, Robert De Niro and Frances Conroy. Swiss actress Julie Ordon, in Toronto […]

Rooftop parties really work better when it isn’t freezing, but the folks at Absolut, despite being able to project art installations onto neighbouring office towers, just can’t predict the weather. The young and hip gathered on the rooftop of a downtown parkade last night for the vodka brand’s TIFF fete. The art projections, by the way, were part of Canadian visual artists Kellen Hatanaka and Beside Herself‘s task to transform a plain ole rooftop into a full-fledged art party.

It was a big night for Canada. In one part of town, cliché-spitting Canadiana pirouetted on the ice at the premiere of Score: A Hockey Musical. Meanwhile a little uptown, the regiment of well-heeled Canucks congregated for a quieter–but equally proud–celebration of Canadian imagery for RED, a preview exhibition of twelve images from the New York Times Canadian Photo Archive.

Caitlin Cronenberg, photographer and daughter of film auteur David Cronenberg, made her curatorial debut for the exhibit, which was held at the Toro After Dark space. The daunting task required Cronenberg to look through thousands of archive photographs to select twelve to display. The younger Cronenberg based her decisions on emotional response and the stories they tell. “These photos are news stories and it’s the stories that make them special,” she said.

The Toronto International Film Festival opened last night with a decidedly Canadian theme. The gala screening was for Score: A Hockey Musical, so a fully Canuck band of celebs were in attendance–George Strombolopolous, who played a hockey announcer, Nelly Furtado, who yelled from the stands as a streak-haired puck bunny and Walter Gretzky, who played […]
