Celebs of varying stature and fame made their way to Avery Fisher Hall in Lincoln Center in NYC, NY last night to attend the 2009 American Ballet Theatre Gala. Musician Rufus Wainwright, who tends to have more of an affinity for opera, was in attendance as well as Gossip Girl newbie Joanna Garcia and BFFs Natalie Portman & Mila Kunis. The newly single Emmy Rossum (who filed for divorce from her hubby a couple of weeks ago) showed up on the arm of Sideshow Bob from The Simpsons:

Oh wait, I’m sorry … Emmy showed up with Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz, not Sideshow Bob … sorry about that. But, c’mon, you can see how I got confused. It’s nice to see young celebs taking an interest in the arts … why, David and I attended a ballet performance of Romeo and Juliet here in LA just this last July for my birthday. I sincerely hope the celebs who attended last night’s gala affair did so out of an honest appreciation for dance rather than an available opportunity to dress up and pose in their finery for a photo op.

LOL Trent! I think you’re reaching when you say “I sincerely hope the celebs who attended last night’s gala affair did so out of an honest appreciation for dance rather than an available opportunity to dress up and pose in their finery for a photo op.” Reaching High, Ohhhh So HIGH! lol ;-)
I heard Side Show Bob…er, Adam… is about 20 years older than Emmy
LMAO omfg you NAILED it w/the Side Show Bob ref for Adam Duritz, Trent! I really soooooo don’t get his appeal – why sooo many famous actresses have dated this dude. And yeah @Katie – dude’s in his 40′s Emmy Rossum’s in 20′s. He either is like a-friggin-mazing in bed, or just the best b/f ever. I don’t get it.
hahah you are funny! I just love you!
The Counting Crows are SO fun to watch in concert, seriously. Anyway, had no idea that Natalie and Mila were friends.
hahaha that sideshow bob thing killed me.
I love that Natalie and Mila are friends!!! So cute together!
How the hell does Adam Duritz get chicks? He’s so ugly; say what you will, looks do matter.. at least a bit.. and he ain’t got NONE HONEY!
awww nice to see JoAnna Garcia.
Nat and Mila aren’t necessarily friends. They’re doing a project together called Black Swan which, not surprisingly, is about ballet. They probably weren’t there just out of appreciation for the art.
