Emma Watson - Yes she is still in her early twenties and has glowing radiant wrinkle free skin, but this pixie cut channeling Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby is this season's hot new style, Just think of the ease this cut can bring to your life, as its sure to trim down at least 30 minutes in your morning routine. This is a great cut for moms looking for an effortless style that is also very cutting edge.

This is a great cut for moms looking for an effortless style that is also very cutting edge.
Katie Holmes - One of my favorite hair cuts ever! This clean and easy cut will look great on various shaped faces and can be styled in multiple ways. Part it on the side and wear behind your ears for a simple day look or slick it back for a more demure evening look. The best thing about this cut is that growing it out once the novelty wears off is a cinch!
Victoria Beckham - Very similar to the Katie Holmes look, Beckham's hair has a tousled more “fresh out of bed” look. Try this style if you are willing to invest a little bit of effort and time into your hair care routine. This is a perfect look to try if you have fine wavy hair.
Scarlett Johansson - This is the current take on the classic “bob”. The style is angled longer in the front and shorter in the back with razored ends. The idea of this cut is to keep it simple and low maintenance. This one is all about the cut and less about the time spent coiffing it and looks best on hair with a little texture and waive.
Olivia Palermo - The original long “bob”, this cut is for the woman who likes her hair to look perfect and well maintained. This style has a refined regal feel to it and is easily worn by every shaped face. Try the style with long layers in the front, not around the entire head.
Ashley Olsen - This decades take on the “Farah” cut, with feathered wings and all! The difference with this style is its focus on definition and flatness. This is a great cut for a woman with fine straight hair who is not afraid of her round brush. This cut requires minimal effort and can look great at different lengths.
Bijou Phillips - This weekend I watched a crappy b-list-straight-to-video movie called Wake starring this stunning actress. While the movie sucked I couldn't take my eyes off her glorious locks! Her cut is perfect for a woman with ample thick hair. Parted in the middle with long bang like layers, this look is sexy, current and right on trend with the 70's vibe of the spring/summer 2011 fashion season.
Elle Macpherson - Her hair is a legend and has remained virtually the same for the past 20 years. For a woman who likes minimal up keep and needs the length to be able to toss hair into a pony tail or bun, this is the perfect cut. For evening pull out the curling iron and wrap the ends for a few seconds to give hair a bouncy flirty look. Again this cut works best with a center part.
Reese Witherspoon - If you want the look of a bang but don't want your style to be severe, this is a perfect option. Reese has kept the length of her hair long and layered and has added thin bangs to create a sophisticated yet playful cut. This is the cut for you if you have a heart or oval shaped face.
In many cases a new hairstyle will give the allusion of weight loss and immediately you will have a more confident walk and smile on your face.

Blackbeard's anchor recovered?
Blackbeard's anchor recovered off NC coast
An anchor from what's believed to be the wreck of the pirate Blackbeard's flagship has been raised from the ocean floor off the North Carolina coast.
Archaeologists believe the anchor recovered Friday is from the Queen Anne's Revenge, which sank in 1718. That was five months before Blackbeard was killed in a battle.
The artifact is the third-largest item at the shipwreck, outsized only by two other anchors.
Researchers retrieved the anchor from the shipwreck about 20 feet under water and were bringing it to shore. The work to retrieve it began last week. The anchor is about 11 feet long.
The recovery coincides with the release this month of "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides." The movie features both Blackbeard and the Queen Anne's Revenge.

he attorney for the four men B.J. Bernstein, also confirmed that the lawsuits had been settled.

Is Oprah wooing Pippa Middleton for OWN show?
Is Oprah wooing Pippa Middleton for OWN show?
Is Oprah wooing Pippa Middleton for OWN show? Ever since the Royal Wedding, Pippa Middleton has become a fixture in the British and international media, and interest in her is so great that she may even get her own reality show: on Oprah Winfrey’s OWN network.
The National Enquirer claims to have it on good authority that Pippa is being courted by at least two major figures in US television, Oprah and Barbara Walters, with the end of having her on her own show.
According to the tab, the two are secretly “duking it out,” each trying to outdo the other and land the hottest royal commodity right now, Pippa.
The fact that she’s young, gorgeous and, as of late, a member of the Royal Family means that she will undoubtedly be a hit with American audiences, the report goes on to say.
As such, cutthroat negotiations are currently taking place, with both talk show hosts doing their best to get Pippa on their side.
“Years ago, when Kate broke up with Prince William briefly, Barbara tried to hire her as a View co-host – but now she thinks Pippa’s so sassy, young and gorgeous, she’d be a fantastic fit. Ratings would be amazing!” an insider claiming to be familiar with the situation says for the tab.
However, adds the spy, whereas Walters is offering Pippa a spot on The View, Oprah is doubling the offer, by telling her she could get her own show on her recently released network.
“She wants Pippa to host her own show for her OWN network,” the insider explains.
“O[prah] knows it would be a great ratings coup because Pippa’s a star on fire – and Americans are so obsessed with the royals!” the spy adds.
Pippa has not decided anything just yet, but reports online suggest that she’s thinking it through because she realizes now is the best time to make a decision about a career.
In fact, Pippa has already understood that she must make the most of her newfound fame – and has even hired a PR firm to help her cope with it.

Mariah Carey cleared of child endangerment
Mariah Carey cleared of child endangerment
Mariah Carey cleared of child endangerment. Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon in clear after social services investigation into 'drinking' near the twins
The social services investigation into Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon following the birth of their twins has finally been closed after officials decided there was no case to answer.
The Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services concluded that there was 'no merit' to the case, which was sparked by an anonymous tip-off saying the Glitter star had been drinking near the babies.
Apparently, social workers interviewed Mariah, 41, today and spent time with the twins before deciding her babies Moroccan and Monroe were in a 'healthy and safe environment'.
Celebrity website TMZ says Mariah's lawyer, Laura Wasser, was present for the duration of the DCFS interview.
The investigation was triggered by a phone call to DCFS complaining that Mariah had drunk Guinness while breast feeding.
The star and her husband were allowed to take their twins home from Cedars Sinai Medical Center last week, but their delight had been marred by the investigation into wheter drugs and alcohols were used near the babies in hospital.
Cannon, 30, and Carey, who have been married for three years, have been under investigation after the television host said someone may have overheard a nurse suggesting to Mariah to 'drink Guinness... the yeast improves breast-feeding'.
The case has now officially been closed after they received a visit by a case worker at their home lasted approximately 30 minutes.

Scottie Pippen: LeBron ‘may be the greatest player to ever play’
At the ripe age of 26, LeBron James has won two MVP awards, he has two NBA Finals appearances, several All-Star berths, and his Miami Heat team will be the odds-on favorite to win the NBA title next week as they prepare to take on the Dallas Mavericks. He also has zero NBA titles.
At the same age, NBA legend Michael Jordan had just as many titles, just as many MVP awards, and his Bulls weren't even the favorites as they prepared to take on the Los Angeles Lakers in the 1991 NBA Finals.
All this was enough for Jordan teammate and guy-who-should-know Scottie Pippen to toss this out, while appearing on ESPN Radio Friday morning:
"Michael Jordan is probably the greatest scorer to ever play the game. I may go so far as saying LeBron James may be the greatest player to ever play the game."
Whoa, guy. Seriously?
No, James hasn't surpassed Jordan in any meaningful way yet. He hasn't won jack, in comparison to MJ's six titles. He hasn't simultaneously won a Defensive Player of the Year in the same season he led the NBA in scoring, though that might be Dwight Howard's(notes) fault more than anything else. And because James joined the Miami Heat midway through his career, he'll never be looked at as the singular drive behind any championships he earns. After all, when Jordan won his first ring in 1991, Pippen hadn't even made an All-Star team by then.
But parsed correctly, tossing in a "might be" before "the greatest player to ever play the game," and following that with a "when all is said and done," Pip has to be taken seriously, here. James is 26, and he might be the greatest player to ever play the game when all is said and done. A lot of us have felt that for years.

Margo dydek dies
Margo Dydek, 7-foot-2 ex-WNBA player, dies at 37
Margo Dydek, a 7-foot-2 former WNBA player who led the league in blocks nine times, died Friday after being placed in a medically induced coma following a heart attack a week ago. She was 37.
Her death was confirmed to The Associated Press by Cathy Roberts, operations manager of the Northside Wizards in the Queensland Basketball League, where Dydek was the coach.
FILE - This Sept. 11, 2008, file photo shows Los Angeles Sparks ' Margo Dydek, left, protects the ball as Atlanta Dream 's Katie Feenstra, right, defends during Dream's 83-72 victory in a WNBA basketball game, in Los Angeles. Dydek has suffered a heart attack and is in a medically induced coma in a Brisbane, Australia hospital. Basketball Australia said Friday, May 20, 2011, that the 37-year-old Poland-born Dydek suffered the heart attack on Thursday.
The Poland-born Dydek, pregnant with her third child, was stricken with a heart attack May 19 and collapsed at her home in Brisbane. Dydek was early in her pregnancy and the fetus died, Roberts said.
Dydek was once said to be the tallest active professional female basketball player. She was the No. 1 pick in the 1998 WNBA draft by the Utah Starzz. She also played for San Antonio, Connecticut and Los Angeles.
“She was a tremendous person, role model and athlete who touched the lives of her many fans and made an indelible mark on women’s basketball around the world,” WNBA President Laurel Richie said.
Dydek held the record for most blocks in a WNBA career (877 in 323 games) and led the league from 1998 to 2003 and again from 2005-07. In 2008, Dydek signed with the Los Angeles Sparks following time away from basketball to give birth to her first son.
“Not only was Margo a great basketball player, she was one of the kindest people I had the opportunity to play against and later work with,” said Sparks general manager Penny Toler, who also played with Dydek.
“I was saddened to hear about her passing at such a young age. Her memory will live on, not only with the Sparks but with the entire WNBA. Our deepest sympathies go out to her family.”
Tina Thompson, a former teammate on the Sparks, said on the WNBA’s Twitter feed: “My condolences to the family of Margo Dydek, may she rest in peace!”
According to Dydek’s Facebook page, she was born to a 6-7 father and 6-3 mother. Her oldest of two sisters, Kashka, used to play for the Colorado Explosion of the now defunct ABL, and in Poland.
The Brisbane-based Wizards said on their website that Dydek died “peacefully and surrounded by her family.”
“Always in our hearts—Margo. … You were a much-loved member of our community and we will miss you greatly,” the team said.
She is survived by her husband, David, and two sons, David, 3, and Alex, 7 months.

Oprah Winfrey's teary farewell
Oprah finale devoted to fan
There were no free cars or vacations. No favorite things or makeovers. No celebrity guests on stage -- though there were plenty in the audience.
The finale of Oprah Winfrey's talk show, taped Tuesday and aired Wednesday, was all about the one thing that made her a billion-dollar success: the unique connection she made with millions of viewers for 25 years. In what she called her "love letter" to fans, she made clear that to her, all those TV friendships went both ways.
"Something in me connected with each of you in a way that allowed me to see myself in you and you in me," Winfrey said. "I listened and grew, and I know you grew along with me."
Winfrey was the only person on stage with little background music and short flashback clips. The show went to commercials with "Twenty-Five Years," a soft song that musician Paul Simon wrote and recorded for her.
She called fans her "safe harbor" and became teary eyed when reflecting on her upbringing in rural Mississippi.
"It is no coincidence that a lonely little girl," Winfrey said, choking up, "who felt not a lot of love, even though my parents and grandparents did the best they could, it is no coincidence that I grew up to feel a genuine kindness, affection, trust and validation from millions of you all over the world."
Winfrey told viewers that sometimes she was a teacher, but more often her viewers instructed her. She called Wednesday's episode her "last class from this stage."
At one point she thanked viewers for sharing her "yellow brick road of blessings" -- something she said back in November 2009, when she announced that she would end her show. The program gave rise to a media empire, including a magazine and Winfrey's own cable network, which she launched in January.
Wednesday's show was the last piece of a months-long sendoff, but as the hour wrapped up, Winfrey stopped short of saying farewell.
"I won't say goodbye. I'll just say, until we meet again," she said.
She hugged and kissed her longtime partner Stedman Graham and shook hands with audience members before walking through the halls of Harpo Studios in Chicago, hugging and crying with her staff. She shouted, "We did it!"
The last shot of the finale showed Winfrey walking away with her cocker spaniel, Sadie.
Some fans across the country had parties for the finale. Sharon Evans, 53, of Chicago had pancakes with her mother and girlfriends.
"She was very subdued today and I appreciated that she was taking that last hour not to showcase any celebrities or favorite things," Evans said. "It was truly what she said, a love letter to us."
Amy Korin, 32, of Chicago, was in the studio audience when the show taped on Tuesday. She described Winfrey's monologue as having the feeling of a graduation commencement speech. "It was just amazing to witness," she said.
Celebrities in the audience included Tyler Perry, Maria Shriver, Suze Orman and Cicely Tyson. None of them joined Winfrey on stage. A week earlier, Hollywood A-listers and 13,000 fans bid Winfrey farewell in a double-episode extravaganza at Chicago's United Center.
In the bare-bones final taping there were just 404 audience members, according to Harpo Productions. The show received 1.4 million ticket requests throughout its final season, the company said.
Winfrey became famous over the decades for landing hard-to-get celebrity interviews and her annual giveaway shows, where she bestowed audience members with such stunning gifts as cars and Australian vacations.
Already a television journalist, Winfrey came to Chicago in 1984 to WLS-TV's morning talk show, "A.M. Chicago." A month later the show was No. 1 in the market. A year later it was renamed "The Oprah Winfrey Show."
Winfrey opened Harpo Studios on Chicago's West Loop neighborhood in 1990. On Jan. 1 of this year she launched the Oprah Winfrey Network, which is based in Los Angeles.

Death toll in Joplin twister rises by 6 to 132
Death toll in Joplin twister rises by 6 to 132
The death toll from the tornado that hit Joplin, Mo., on Sunday rose to 132 following the discovery of six more bodies, the city said in a statement Friday.
Joplin Mayor Mike Woolston earlier told NBC News that he expected the number to continue to rise slowly as debris is removed.
State officials also reported that 156 people still remain unaccounted for. A list released Thursday showed 232 missing, but that was quickly reduced as some people were found to be alive and others already reported as having died.
More than 900 people were injured in the deadliest twister to hit the U.S. since 1947.
State officials who were criticized for problems with information made available to the public brought in new resources.
“We will keep a relentless focus on the search, rescue and identification” of the missing and “we will not rest until everyone has been accounted for,” Gov. Jay Nixon said.
Getting accurate information out of the six-mile-long scar left by the tornado has been a struggle. Cell phone service was spotty, landlines dropped and electric power remained cut for thousands across the city.
There was joy for some as people feared dead were found alive, and heartbreak for others as the worst was confirmed.
On the wall of the Red Cross shelter in Joplin was taped a poster with a picture of Emma Marie Hamp-Haines, on which someone had scrawled “FOUND.” Hamp-Haines was reunited with her daughter at the center on Wednesday.
“That made it worth it, to see a family brought together,” said Amie Houston, a Missouri State University student, who watched the reunion.
The meeting of mother and daughter was a welcome happy ending in a town where too many other stories have ended in shock and tears.
Story: Joplin receipt turns up 525 miles away
Reports late Thursday indicated that Mike Hare’s search for his 16-year-old son Lantz ended in heartbreak.
Online social networking and community news site Gather News reported that the teen had been found dead.
Hare had been scouring the ravaged neighborhood where his son was seen last. He had called hospitals from Dallas to Kansas City and taken dozens of calls offering advice, prayers and hopeful tips.
Hunting friends and family
Local radio filled with callers hunting for friends and family. A Safe and Well list maintained by the Red Cross had more than 1,800 names registered and more than 79,000 searches by Thursday morning, spokesman Jim Rettew said.
Searchers hung five posters, including that of Emma Marie Hamp-Haines, on a glass case behind the Red Cross workers.
“One of the first questions we’re asking is ‘Have you notified your family? Do they know you’re safe?’” Rettew said.
Nixon said Thursday the number of missing had fallen as stories like Hamp-Haines’s came to light.
He acknowledged the frustration and confusion over initial estimates of a staggering 1,500 missing reported for two days following the tornado.
As briefings continued for the media, the number of missing did not decline. Then on Wednesday, officials abruptly stopped giving out a figure at all.
State officials directed 60 investigators starting on Wednesday to work around the clock to deliver Thursday’s more accurate number, Nixon said.
We have absolutely no reason to hide anything from anybody,” Nixon said.
Some of the remains recovered so far have been in very poor condition, Nixon told reporters. Morgue workers, including a federal team, were working to ensure there were no incorrect identifications, he said.
“I don’t know what you say to someone who was sitting at home eating dinner and heard the sirens and haven’t seen their loved ones since,” Nixon said.
Deadliest days
Below are the deadliest single tornadoes in U.S. history. The Joplin tornado is not listed as the number is still in flux.
1. Mar 18, 1925: Missouri/Illinois/Indiana; 695 dead
2. May 6, 1840: Natchez, Mississippi; 317 dead
3. May 27, 1896: St. Louis, Missouri; 255 dead
4. April 5, 1936: Tupelo, Mississippi; 216 dead
5. April 6, 1936: Gainesville, Georgia; 203 dead
6. April 9, 1947: Woodward, Oklahoma; 181 dead
7. April 24, 1908: Amite, La./Purvis, Miss.; 143 dead
8. June 12, 1899: New Richmond, Wisconsin; 117 dead
9. June 3, 1953: Flint, Michigan; 115 dead
10. May 11, 1953: Waco, Texas; 114 dead
10. May 18, 1902: Goliad, Texas; 114 dead

kendall jenner birth control
Why Is Kendall Jenner on Birth Control?
The Kardash-ling. Craig Barritt/WireImage Sound the alarms, 15-year-old Kendall Jenner is on birth control! That's a dramatic plot twist from the upcoming season of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," wherein Bruce Jenner freaks out when he discovers his daughter's pills.
"No comment, no comment," Kris Jenner teases to E! News about the situation, keeping fans in suspense (as a true reality-show mom would). "You'll have to wait and see."
To this, Khloe Kardashian -- this family loves to get interviewed, especially together -- weighs in to set the record straight (and keep her little sister's reputation intact). "But I don't want it to be bad," she says. "Because it's not that reason why she's on birth control."
Perhaps, as E! suggests, the teen model is taking the pills for acne or menstrual cramps. Either way, kids grow up -- and fast, in Hollywood.

Kevin McHale offered head coaching job
Kevin McHale offered head coaching job
Wojnarowski broke the news via Twitter on Friday, saying, "There's no guarantee terms will be agreed upon with McHale, but sources believe both sides are determined to make it happen."
The report has since been confirmed by Rockets' beat writer Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle.
Sources close to the Rockets indicated that McHale separated himself from contenders Dwane Casey and Lawrence Frank late last week after McHale made a "strong final impression in conversations" with Houston officials in Chicago.
The Rockets job became available when the team decided to let Rick Adelman's contract expire, despite a 193-135 (.588) record over four seasons at the helm. The team was surrounded by constant adversity under Adelman, including the never-ending injury problems of center Yao Ming(notes).
McHale is currently an analyst for TNT but sources say he'd jump at an opportunity to coach again in the NBA. He's had two runs as a coach with the Minnesota Timberwolves, where he went 39-55.
As a player, McHale was a Hall of Fame forward for the Boston Celtics. He won three titles in his 13-year career and was selected to seven All-Star games.

President Obama extends Patriot Act
President Obama extends Patriot Act
President Barack Obama has signed a three-month extension of key surveillance provisions of the Patriot Act.
The law extends two areas of the 2001 act. One provision allows law enforcement officials to set roving wiretaps to monitor multiple communication devices. The other allows them to ask a special court for access to business and library records that could be relevant to a terrorist threat.A third provision gives the FBI court-approved rights for surveillance of non-American "lone wolf" suspects — those not known to be tied to specific terrorist groups.
Obama signed the three-month extension of the provisions Friday. They were to expire Monday.
Lawmakers will soon start debating a multiple-year extension of the provisions, which have drawn fire from defenders of privacy rights.

Final moments of Air France 447 revealed
Final moments of Air France 447 revealed
That is one of the findings of France's BEA aviation safety agency which has analysed the black box flight recorder for the 2009 accident .
"We have no valid indications," one pilot of the Rio to Paris flight was quoted as saying as the aircraft dropped towards the sea, three minutes before it hit the water.
The 58-year-old captain, who had left the cockpit to take a routine rest, returned but did not retake control of the plane.
"There was an inconsistency between the speeds displayed on the left side and the integrated standby instrument system," BEA said in a statement following its study of the recovered flight data recorders.
"This lasted for less than one minute."
According to the chronology of the flight provided by BEA, the two co-pilots decided at two hours and eight minutes into the flight to turn slightly to the left to avoid an area of turbulence.
Two minutes later the autopilot disengaged, the instruments began showing that the speed had slowed dramatically and the engine stall warning began to sound.
"During the following seconds, all of the recorded speeds became invalid and the stall warning stopped," said the BAE preliminary report.
"So, we've lost the speeds," it quoted the second of the two co-pilots as saying. The responses by the co-pilot flying the aircraft "were mainly nose-up" and "the airplane climbed to 38,000ft".
BEA said: "The descent lasted 3 min 30, during which the airplane remained stalled. The engines were operating and always responded to crew commands."
The last data on the recorder showed that plane's nose was up at a sharp angle as it plunged at 10,912ft (3,300m) per minute.
BEA director Jean-Paul Troadec said: "These are so far just observations, not an understanding of the events."
A fuller report into the cause of the tragedy is expected to be released in a few months time.

The 2011 NBA Finals are set
The 2011 NBA Finals are set
The 2011 NBA Finals are set. Miami Heat’s road to the 2011 NBA Finals: A fan’s take.The Miami Heat and their All-Star Trio have advanced to the 2011 NBA Finals where they will face Dirk Nowitzki(notes) and the Dallas Mavericks. Chris Bosh(notes), LeBron James(notes) and Dwyane Wade(notes) planned to establish a Miami Heat dynasty when they decided to join forces in South Beach. If they win four more games, they will become NBA Champions in just their first season together.
Five seasons ago, both teams made their first appearance in the NBA Finals. Wade and the Heat defeated Nowitzki and the Mavericks to earn the 2006 NBA Championship. The second Heat-Mavericks Finals will begin Tuesday, May 31.
Before the 2011 NBA Finals begin, let's review how the Heat won the East.
With Miami ahead in the series 3-0 and holding an 82-76 lead with just 95 seconds remaining in Game 4, a Heat sweep seemed to be a foregone conclusion. But during those closing seconds, Miami allowed the 76ers to score 10 points and failed to score a single point of their own. The result was an 86-82 Heat loss. Miami recovered from their first playoff loss with a 97-91 Game 5 victory to close the series.
After winning the first two games of the series at home, the Heat fell to the Celtics 97-81 in Game 3. In Game 4, the Celtics inbounded the ball with the 19 seconds left in regulation and the game tied at 86. Miami's defense answered the call and forced overtime by preventing Boston from executing their offensive set. In overtime, the Heat outscored the Celtics 12-4 and won the game 98-90. Miami closed the series with a 97-87 Game 5 win.
In Game 1, the Heat allowed an opponent 100 points for the first time in these playoffs, and the Bulls bludgeoned them 103-82. For the remainder of the series, Miami held Chicago to an average of 83.25 points per game. Miami snatched home-court advantage from the Bulls with an 85-75 Game 2 victory at the United Center. In Game 4, with 8 seconds remaining on the clock, the game tied 85-85 and the ball in Derrick Rose's(notes) hands, Chicago had an opportunity to tie the series 2-2. But Rose could not get by LeBron James and missed a contested 18-foot jumper as time expired. In the ensuing overtime Miami outscored Chicago 16-8 and took a 3-1 series lead. Late in Game 5, the Bulls had a 12-point lead, 77-65, with 3:12 remaining on the clock, and it seemed like the Bulls would extend the series to a sixth game. Once again, the Heat's defense showed its mettle. Miami held Chicago to just three points in the final three minutes while scoring 18 points of their own. The result was an 83-80 series-clinching victory.
The Heat are now four wins away from claiming the 2011 NBA Championship. Only Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks stand between the Miami Heat All-Star Trio and the completion of their first step of establishing a Miami Heat dynasty.

Are Olivia Wilde and Bradley Cooper dating?
The 36-year-old old actor was accompanied to the afterparty of his new movie 'The Hangover Part II' by the 'Tron: Legacy' star and onlookers at Monday's (23.05.11) bash at New York's Boom Boom Room said they were "definitely" together.
One insider told Life & Style: "Olivia was Bradley's date. He was always taking her hand or putting his hand on her lower back, it was really sweet. He took care of her all night.
"They were definitely together. At one point, they even wanted some alone time and hiked up the stairs to the roof, but they had trouble getting there!
"They left together at 12.15. They seemed really comfortable together."
Over the weekend, Bradley and Olivia - who was recently romantically linked with Justin Timberlake following her split from husband Tao Ruspoli - were spotted "flirting" at the 'Saturday Night Live' after-party, where they were joined by the 'SexyBack' hitmaker and actress Mila Kunis.
An onlooker told the New York Post newspaper: "It looked like Olivia was friendly with Justin, but flirting with Bradley."
