Kristen Bell & Dax Shepard Keep Their Distance
Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard have moved in together, but you wouldn't know it by the way they acted last night!
Kristen was hosting a Maxim party for Assassin's Creed II at Voyeur but walked the red carpet without her funnyman.
Could it be because Dax has no game? "He doesn't play video games," Kristen told E! News. "He doesn't have the motor skills!"
Even inside the bash her beau kept his distance.
"They were on opposite ends of the room," a partyer says, noting Kristen's man also refused to take any photos with her. Some boyfriend!
Also rolling without his significant other at the soirée was Kourtney Kardashian's baby daddy...
Brody Jenner: Kristin Cavallari Just "Bitter"

Brody Jenner isn't worried that his ex-girlfriend Kristin Cavallari called him boring in bed.
The new queen be-yotch on The Hills called sex with Jenner "vanilla" in a trailer for the new season and told us he didn't do anything "outside the box."
"I laugh at that, and you'll laugh too once you see the rest of the season," he told me at the Hollywood Style Awards last night. "I take the high road, but she was obviously just bitter about something."
We'll have to watch and see what exactly she's bitter about, but clearly, there's no bad blood between Brody and former fling Lauren Conrad.
L.C. presented Brody with the Young Hollywood Stylemaker Award and had a cozy dinner with him after the event at STK.
So where was his girlfriend, Jayde Nicole?
Brody said his lady was back home, celebrating Canadian Thanksgiving with her family.
He had no comment on the drink-throwing/hair-pulling incident between her and Joe Francis at Guys and Dolls back in August.

Lo Bosworth: I Am Not Starring in L.A. Candy Movie!
Jen Lowery/Startraksphoto.com
Reports of Lo Bosworth starring in the movie adaptation of Lauren Conrad's novel, L.A. Candy, have been greatly exaggerated.
Lauren was quoted recently saying that not only has Lo taken acting classes, but that Lo was also her first pick for the flick. L.A. Candy is being made for the big screen by the producers of Twilight.
"It was more of a joke than anything," Lo explained to us the other day at Jumpstart and the Pearson Foundation's National Read for the Record Day event in L.A.
"We were on the red carpet together and they were like, 'Who do you want to be in the movie?'" she said. "I would love to make a cameo, but I don't think I could handle a big role because I'm not an actress. A cameo would be really fun."
Not so fun anymore? The Hills…
Lauren Conrad Launches Recession-Chic Line
Lauren Conrad is out of Kitson and into Kohl's.
When she first debuted an overpriced fashion line, it quickly fizzled. Now she's back with L.C. by Lauren Conrad, which retails at Kohl's.
Last night, she feted the launch of her latest line with a party—not at the department-store chain, but on Melrose Place.
While she walked the carpet solo, her boyfriend, actor Kyle Howard, was by her side inside the soiree. The couple was careful not to get photographed together, though.
One former fling missing from the bash?

Lauren Conrad's Robert Pattinson Connection

Forget The Hills. That reality show is so, like, totally last year for Lauren Conrad.
Just today, Ms. Conrad launched a new clothing line for Kohl's department stores. And yesterday, it was announced that she has struck a deal for the movie adaptation of her debut novel, L.A. Candy.
"I've had a good week," Conrad told me as she was getting ready for a party tonight celebrating her Kohl's collection.
That's putting it mildly.
Her partner in the movie deal is Temple Hill Entertainment, which also happens to produce—get ready for this—the Twilight flicks!
Read on to find out what L.C. told me about working with Kohl's, appearing in the L.A. Candy movie and meeting Robert Pattinson…
Lauren Conrad Won't Be Watching Audrina's Show

Lauren Conrad isn't setting her TiVo for former roommate Audrina Patridge's spinoff show.
"I don't like to watch people I know on TV...it's weird," she told me last night at Alice + Olivia's fall preview party. "Even friends of mine that are actors, I don't like to watch their shows. There's just something weird about it."
So maybe she doesn't watch her actor boyfriend Kyle Howard, either, who Lauren confirmed she's still seeing.
Another show she won't be tuning into? The Hills...

Lauren Conrad's Bikini Shape Secrets
Shape
Lauren Conrad, ex-Hills star and New York Times best-selling author (yeah, it sounds weird to us, too), graces the September issue of Shape with a bikini bod that we can only assume was not given the Kelly Clarkson treatment.
Especially since the curvy Conrad reveals to the mag her secrets for staying so slim, including a diet filled with the likes of watermelon, organic salad greens and tuna.
"I've found when all I'm eating is really fresh, healthy foods, I stop craving pizza and burgers," she says.
Hmmm, clearly L.C. hasn't been taking culinary cues from a certain former frenemy…

America's Next Top Model is getting a little fiercer this year with reality fashionistas Kim Kardashian and Lauren Conrad set to appear in cycle 13 as celebrity judges.
Are they joining full-time to replace departed supermodel judge Paulina Porizkova? Here's what we're hearing...
Lauren Conrad Has a Really Awesome Muse

Lauren Conrad may not have the best taste in boys or former besties, but she sure knows how to pick a muse.
Nope, it's not Hemingway or F. Scott Fitzgerald who moves her. The Hills hottie and L.A. Candy author gets her literary inspiration from none other than E!'s own Chelsea Handler.
"I love people who can bring their voice into the story," the starlet told OK! magazine this past weekend. "I just read both of Chelsea Handler's books and I love them because you can hear her voice in there. I think that's really great that you bring personality to story."
Ironically, one of L.C.'s frenemies, Kristin Cavallari, appears on Chelsea Lately this week accusing Conrad of not having a personality.

Audrina Patridge apparently isn't the only Hills starlet Brody Jenner isn't hanging out with at the moment.
Believe it or not, the once inseparable Brody/Lauren Conrad duo is no longer attached at the hip.
"I haven't seen much of her since she left the show," Brody admitted to us recently. "I ran into her out and about a week ago just by chance, but that's it."
So what's the deal?
