Michael Douglas was the picture of health today at the Michael Kors runway show at New York's Fashion Week.

The actor was full of life, chatting with fellow attendees and speaking with E! News about his health following his battle with stage IV throat cancer in 2010.

"I feel great, I'm feeling great," the Wall Street star told us with a huge smile.

Douglas, sans wife Catherine Zeta-Jones and clad in a black leather jacket, chatted up his seatmate Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, who looked perfect in a tan sleeveless dress and flawless makeup. The actor told us he ventured out to the show in order to support his designer friend.

"He's a lovely guy, he's got a little giggle, he's a sense of humor," he said of Kors. "He works hard, but it is fashion and he doesn't take it too seriously."

Douglas also told us he caught an intense game of tennis at the U.S. Open recently.

"I was at the Federer match—that was incredible," he said.

Avatar hottie Zoe Saldana was also front row in a gray dress by the designer, and the Queens native told us she came to support Kors because he's a fellow New Yorker.

"He's just amazing and I've known him for a couple of years and have so much respect for who he is, and I like that he's a New Yorker as well—he's from Long Island," she said. "I'm a huge supporter of New Yorkers and I also worked on Project Runway. I did one episode this last season and I had such an amazing time and to come out here and support a fellow artist is always a good thing."

Also perched front row was Rachel Zoe, who was spotted snapping pics of a crochet dress and a bright orange and red number, along with Vogue editor Anna Wintour, who donned a giant pair of Chanel shades, natch.
