Wait 'til you have two! :)

Maggie Gyllenhaal says that in order for her to accept a movie role, it has to be REALLY GOOD. Otherwise, nothing is separating her from little Ramona. 

"I do think that it’s really difficult to get me away from (Ramona). It’s difficult to find a script that’s good enough for me to think, ‘Okay, I really need to do this instead of being with my daughter.’"

Speaking of becoming a mom for the first time, she adds:

"I think having a child changes everything and has deepened everything in my life. I never knew that I could be so tired. I never knew that I could work so hard. I never knew that I could love so much or be so patient or be so excited by the tiniest, tiniest little thing. Everything about it has surprised me."

Maggie Gyllenhaaal, Peter Sarsgaard and their adorable daughter Ramona enjoyed a sunny afternoon in Venice, California yesterday. Since, The Dark Knight is set to release soon, I imagine we'll be seeing a lot more of Maggie and her family. Have to admit I am EXTREMELY excited about the new Batman movie. Christian Bale owns a little piece of my heart.

You get a two for one deal today. :) Both Maggie Gyllenhaal and Naomi Campbell arrived to the CFDA Fashion Awards in NYC in a sort of fashion forward, dressier version of the MC Hammer pant. I think it's only fair that we figure out who looks better and if these pants should stay in the 90's where they belong, or make a comeback. Your thoughts?

Sarah Jessica Parker, Robert Downy Jr. and Anne Hathaway all went home with a ShoWest award for 2008. Let's talk clothing. What do you think about what the girls chose to wear? Matthew Fox, Jodie Foster, Brendan Fraser, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Christina Ricci also attended.
Oh Matthew! Who watched LOST this week? I don't want to talk about anything in case people didn't get to see it yet. But when that guy was on the boat I almost DIED! And then when two of the castmates went to go visit you know who you know where in the future I got a little teary eyed.
Sorry - back to ShoWest, click on the continue reading link to see 6 more pictures.

Isn't that nice? The Gyllenhaal ladies all spent some time together in Paris this past weekend. Can you imagine just being able to call your mother up and pull together a trip like that? "Hey Mom, what are you doing this weekend? I was thinking about hitting up Paris. Wanna come?" UGH - she would DIE.Bauer Griffin

Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard attended the NY Film Critics Circle Awards yesterday. I love how these two always attend events together. I know some celebrity couples steer clear of walking the red carpet hand in hand but Maggie and Peter seem to enjoy supporting each other at these things.And, I just noticed that she seems to be wearing some sort of velvet one-piece jumpsuit...soooooo, love it or hate it?

Rachael Ray and John Cusimano showed their affections for one another at the Lunchbox Auction benefiting Food Bank For NYC held at Saatchi & Saatchi. I've never seen these two so touchy-feely!!

Ashley Olsen and Julianne Moore were among the list of celebrities who attended the Party for the New Museum on the Bowery sponsored by Calvin Klein designers Italo Zucchelli and Francisco Costa. Julianne is wearing quite the loose fitted dress eh? Maybe she just wanted to be comfortable. I won't say it... I won't say it...I'm telling you, medical buildings and loose dresses bring out the worst in me.Click on the thumbnails to see more pictures of Thandie Newton, Ali Larter, Lake Bell and Maggie Gyllenhaal.SPLASH

Kyra Sedgwick took the prize for Best Dressed at The 17th Annual Gotham Awards in my book. What's up with all the drabby black? I understand that this isn't the type of event that calls for glitter and glam... but what about effort? Even just a little? Here are some photos of Maggie Gyllenhaal, Keri Russell, Kerry Washington and the always beautiful Uma Thurman attending the award show.Bauer Griffin

Celebrity moms were out in full force yesterday. Although Jennifer Garner was the only one photographed with her child, it's always nice to see what these ladies are up to. Jen and Violet were photographed taking a walk in NYC. Love how Violet wanted to bring her tea cup with her.Katie Holmes also walked the streets of NY with her bodyguard making sure no one messed with Suri's mom.Angelina Jolie is still on the set of The Changeling. Funny thing is it's barely been a week since she started production and I have already seen hundreds of shots!
