Actress Teri Hatcher has been baking tasty treats for her pal Felicity Huffman on the set of Desperate Housewives.

Saks in LA got even fancier last night for a star studded party to benefit the Entertainment Industry Foundation's Women's Cancer Research Fund. It was quite a mix of celebrity faces — from Ginnifer Goodwin to Mary J. Blige to Scott Foley. Kinda random, but all for a good cause. One of our favorite couples, Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy were arm in arm for the red carpet, showing that while rare there are real functional Hollywood couples (at least they seem that way). Hilary Swank and Tom Hanks are Oscar staples by now, but this year they're both only there as presenters not nominees. At least they'll be on hand to welcome a few new faces to their big Academy Awards winner's circle. The big event is just a few days away — don't forget to fill out your ballot for a chance to win $1000.

While my exhausted tail returned to San Francisco last night, the fun rolls on at Sundance with a whole new group of celebs coming into town to brave the cold and show off their movies. Other than Diddy, who was mostly there to show off his vodka. Lukas Haasseparated himself from Leonardo DiCaprio long enough to premiere his movie, Death in Love which Buzz and I saw last night — totally disturbing (though Adam Brody was really cute in it) — before also seeing him out to breakfast this morning. It's going to be a while before I can look at him in the same way. Buzz was there to see Meg Ryan, Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy at the premiere of Meg/William's cute movie The Deal on Tuesday night, while my only other sighting of these folk was Virgina Madsen at the premiere of her movie Diminished Capacity. I had such a blast at the festival, and be sure to check out all my partner in crime's thoughts plus all the news about movies being bought over on Buzz.
Reformed Hollywood wildchild Lindsay Lohan refuses to study her scripts ahead of filming, declaring "everything is on set".

Happy Birthday to singing/songwriting twins Natalie and Nicole Albino of Nina Sky (1986), "Alpha Dog" actor Emile Hirsch (1985), "The Ring" actress Rachael Bella (1984), "That 70s Show" actor Danny Masterson (1976), "Red Eye" star Cillian Murphy (1974), Disturbed lead singer David Draiman (1973), actress Annabeth Gish (1971), U2 bassist Adam Clayton (1960), prolific actress Dana Delany (1956), "What's Happening!!" star Fred Berry (1951; d. 2003), screen actor William H.

John Travolta, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence and William H. Macy were box office magic as their midlife crisis motorcycle movie hauled in an impressive $38 million in its first weekend, followed (distantly) by "Zodiac" and "Ghost Rider."
Hollywood's most in-demand costar? The motorcycle.
Two weeks after "Ghost Rider's" chopper revved up Nicolas Cage's career, John Travolta, Tim Allen and Martin Lawrence rode "Wild Hogs" to the top spot at the weekend box office with an estimated $38 million, Exhibitor Relations reported.
The opening is the biggest of Travolta's and Allen's careers, and the second-biggest of Lawrence's behind "Bad Boys II."
"Wild Hogs," a comedy about a quartet of friends combating the mid-life blahs with two-wheel horsepower, also stars William H. Macy, who apparently was between Mamet plays.
"Ghost Rider," meanwhile, remained relatively strong in its third weekend (third place, $11.5 million), closing in on $95 million overall, and threatening to become Cage's first $100 million hit since "National Treasure."
The honor of top-grossing non-motorcycle movie went to "Zodiac," which debuted with an estimated $13.1 million (second place).
A mis-matched group of bored suburbanites longing to escape the stress of the daily lives and embrace the freedom of the open road finds that it takes more than polished chrome and leather jackets to truly experience the biker lifestyle in this revved-up road comedy starring John Travolta, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence, and William H. Macy.
