Who says trainwreckdom is only reserved for the likes of Amy Winehouse and Courtney Love, HMMM? Interior decorator extraordinaire and all around oddball Bobby Trendy has been making the rounds here on the streets of SoCal lately showing off his new penchant for putting together interesting outfits … behold:

Yikes! I don’t even know what to make of these … looks. Clearly, BT has been influenced by his interior design aesthetic (and found new use for a couple of old chandeliers he’s had difficulty unloading on his clients) and has no qualms about strutting his stuff in public. I mean, I suppose the man (?) should be commended for his bold sense of fashion. On the other hand, I can understand the argument that BT should be summarily executed for crimes against humanity. Really, I could go either way. You?

Whoa! It would seem that jury duty does not agree with Jake Gyllenhaal. As you may know, Jakey poo spent a second day doing his civic duty when he was called for jury duty this week and it appears to have put him in a really pissy mood. When approached by a TMZ videographer about how Jake is enjoying his $15 dollar a day pay for enduring jury duty, Jake mule kicks the guy and then runs inside the courthouse:

Our photog got a kick out of Jake Gyllenhaal today outside court — as in, Jake mule-kicked him in the leg! Our cameraman was waiting for Jake to return from a scheduled lunch break from jury duty, when a frustrated Gyllenhaal walked into the door after pushing instead of pulling. We asked how he was doing … wrong question … Jake stomped down into our guy’s shin. Jake’s now inside the courthouse, waiting to find out if he’ll be selected on a jury that will hear — get this — a battery case.

UPDATE: 5:14 PM ET: Gyllenhaal was just excused from jury service in the battery case….probably because he just committed one!

Now y’all know how much I love me some Jakey poo but this lashing out in such a pissy manner is really unattractive … especially since he ran into the building as fast as he could knowing the pap couldn’t follow him. Trust me, I’m sure enduring the attention from the paparazzi is bothersome but to kick someone like this and run is really pretty shitty … and only kinda ironic, considering the case that Jake was potentially a juror for. Do y’all think it’s okay to kick people if you’re in a bad mood?

Earlier this week we saw photos of hottie Hugh Jackman lookin’ his usual hawt self at the Vancouver Airport as he made his way back to NYC after a quick trip to Vancouver, Canada to reshoot a few scenes for his upcoming new movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Hugh has been happily reunited with his family … which means it’s time for a new playdate with his kiddies! Here are a few ADORABLE pics of Hugh with his daughter Ava as they made their way to the playground together yesterday afternoon:

Full disclosure here … Hugh’s wife and Ava’s mommy Deborra-Lee Furness was also along for this playdate but, IMHO, the pics of just Hugh and his little girl are the real draw ;) Ava is so cute … love her little knit hat. It might even be cuter than the hat that Hugh “wore” at the Vancouver Airport. Cute, yes, but not as fierce.

Very attentive fashion watchers noted that Angelina Jolie, wearing a lovely blue dress from the Max Azria Spring ‘09 Collection, appeared to have worn her dress backwards this past weekend when she attended the 15th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards. Today, US Weekly reports that Angelina’s stylist, Jen Rade, admits to the mag that yes, Angelina wore the dress backwards and did so purposely. Uh huh. Here are pictures of Angelina on the red carpet at the SAG Awards this past Sunday evening and of a model wearing the very same dress properly (ie. not backwards) on the runway this past September at NY Fashion Week:

Blogs have been buzzing that Angelina Jolie wore her cornflower blue Max Azria gown backward at Sunday’s Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles. Well, she did. Her stylist Jen Rade tells Usmagazine.com Jolie purposefully turned around the dress — which was from Azria’s spring 2009 collection — to make it “more blouson.” (The actress was also able to show off her tattoos more.) sked about getting ready, Jolie told E!’s Giuliana Rancic: “I just like to be comfortable. I see what comfortable options are out there.”

Um, right. I mean … I suppose this explanation makes sense but are any of y’all buying it? Doesn’t this wearing one’s dress backwards thing remind you of anyone else who already tried to make this look work?

I mean, if I were Angelina, I wouldn’t want people thinking I copied Céline Dion either so I might have my stylist come up with a rational explanation too! I suppose, in any event, Ange still looked nice in her dress … even if she wore it wrong. She did show off her beloved tattoos and looked good in the process so … no harm, no foul. At least it gives us something else to talk about … rather than the fact that she keeps losing all of her award nominations, that is. I can’t wait to see what outfit she decides to wear to the Academy Awards next month … and whether she’ll wear it frontwards or backwards. Mebbe she’ll wear THIS dress? It’s sure to cause a sensation whichever way she wears it :)

Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum in Washington DC unveiled last month a new exhibit that featured wax statues of now President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton posing with Xmas gifts in the Oval Office of the White House. Today, the museum has announced and released photos of their newest wax statue exhibit which is currently in production. First Lady Michelle Obama is the latest person to be immortalized with her own wax statue:

The First Lady is already getting her first statue: Madame Tussauds Washington, D.C., will unveil a wax figure of Michelle Obama in March. In this photo (released Wednesday), Madame Tussauds senior sculptor Colin Jackson touches up the clay mold of her figure’s head. When complete, Michelle’s figure will join her husband Barack Obama’s wax figure, which was unveiled in February 2008, in a replica of the Oval Office. Obama is the third First Lady to be immortalized in wax by Madame Tussauds Washington D.C., joining Jacqueline Kennedy and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Even tho the statue is in the very early stages, the likeness is really pretty remarkable. Not all of the wax statues that the Madame Tussaud’s sculptors create are perfect likenesses of real people they represent … but sometimes, like in this case with First Lady Obama, they get it pretty perfect. I had no idea that the museum had only previous created likenesses of former First Ladies Jackie O. and Hillary Clinton (I assumed that all First Ladies were immortalized along with their president hubbys) … I guess it’s quite an honor to have a wax effigy created in your honor. Michelle Obama is such an amazing woman, I love that she’s being honored in this way (if, in fact, a wax statue of one’s self is an honor). So far, it looks pretty good … I can’t wait to see the final product — and what outfit from J. Crew it’ll be wearing.

Much of yesterday was spent, you guessed it, packing and cleaning … but, lest you get the wrong idea, I’ve not been working as hard as it may sound. Basically, I keep rummaging thru stuff, trying to determine what I Take and what I Toss. I did manage to pause for a bit to have a quick dinner with Steph and Alek last night. Steph returned from his week-long trip to France and I was anxious to welcome him home. I sent him off to Europe with a Polaroid camera and some film and he snapped for me a bunch of really amazing photos in Paris (I added some of them to my Polaroid album on Flickr HERE).

Today, more of the same. David arrives in SoCal in just 3 days and then the big move is Sunday … I spent the morning calling to have utilities service transferred and, thus far, everything is on schedule. This weekend will be really crazy but I’m just anxious to get it all over with already. T-minus 4 days and counting …
