John Krasinski Waves Goodbye to The Office With Emily Blunt

John Krasinski was joined by his wife, Emily Blunt, for the final screening of NBC's The Office last night in LA.

John Krasinski was joined by his wife, Emily Blunt, for the final screening of NBC's The Office last night in LA. The Office era came to a close after nine seasons with the airing of the series finale yesterday. John said goodbye to his beloved character of Jim, after sharing a special moment with onscreen love Pam in the episode. He took to his social media account to reveal his emotions over the end of the show, writing, "So this is it. There's truly nothing I can say to tell you all how much your love and support of this show has meant. Thank you. Thank you!"

Although it was obviously an emotional occasion for The Office crew, John revealed that no tears were shed on the final day on set explaining, "I don't think there were any tears. I'm saving mine for Barbara Walters! But the only thing that prevented us from having a meltdown is we're all so proud of the show." That's not to say there were dry eyes at all times since he did admit to tearing up during the retrospective that aired ahead of the final episode. The finale also held a heart-felt surprise with the return of a special member of the cast — were you satisfied with how things ended for The Office? Be sure to weigh in with our poll!

Kim Kardashian Preps For a Big Baby Shower Bash

Kim Kardashian donned a white dress with an attached cape to film a scene with mom Kris Jenner for her reality show Keeping Up With the Kardashians at Stanley's Restaurant in LA yesterday.

Kim Kardashian donned a white dress with an attached cape to film a scene with mom Kris Jenner for her reality show Keeping Up With the Kardashians at Stanley's Restaurant in LA yesterday. Kim may have been channeling another star through her fashion choice — her outfit was reminiscent of Gwyneth Paltrow's white Tom Ford caped dress from the 2012 Oscars.

Kim, who is due in July, is preparing for a big celebration soon. Her baby shower will reportedly be held on June 2, and special invitations were already sent out for the baby-themed bash. In typical Kardashian fashion, the invites were printed on not your regular shower stationery but rather came in the form of music boxes with a wind-up ballerina that played a special tune when opened. There was no mention of a baby registry, but there were reports last month that Kim and Kanye would not accept baby gifts and instead would be requesting guests to make a donation to Chicago's Lurie Children's Hospital.

Cannes Film Festival

Marion Cotillard and Colin Firth Celebrate Chopard After $1 Million Robbery

Marion Cotillard donned a strapless Vivienne Westwood gown to join Colin Firth at the Chopard lunch as part of the festivities for the Cannes Film Festival today.

Marion Cotillard donned a strapless Vivienne Westwood gown to join Colin Firth at the Chopard lunch as part of the festivities for the Cannes Film Festival today. Marion and Colin celebrated the jewelry brand, which is responsible for creating the festival's Palme d'Or trophy, as well as best actor and actress awards. The celebratory lunch comes at an interesting time for the brand since it was revealed that $1 million worth of Chopard jewels were stolen from a hotel room in Cannes last night. The jewelry was to be loaned as red carpet pieces to the stars at the festival. Many drew comparisons between last night's burglary and the film, The Bling Ring, which coincidentally debuted at the festival yesterday, since the movie is based on the real-life case of teenage burglars who robbed the Hollywood homes of celebrities.

Patrick Dempsey hit the beach shirtless with his wife, Jillian, and their three children, Tallulah, Darby, and Sullivan, in the Caribbean on Tuesday. The tropical vacation may be a celebratory one since Patrick wrapped yet another season with his long-running show Grey's Anatomy. The season nine finale airs tonight on ABC, and the network recently announced more good news, revealing that Grey's will be renewed for a 10th season.

Before Patrick headed off on vacation, he took time to meet with cancer survivors at the Tuesday start of the Amgen Tour of California, which is America's biggest cycling event. Patrick is an ambassador for the tour and for the Breakaway From Cancer charity, which is involved in "supporting the riders and honoring local cancer survivors from tour communities throughout the race."

Shia LaBeouf's Short — Directorial Success or Disturbing?

Shia LaBeouf released his latest directorial effort in the form of a short film he created for the band Future Unlimited's song "Haunted Love."

Shia LaBeouf released his latest directorial effort in the form of a short film he created for the band Future Unlimited's song "Haunted Love." The band's singer, David Miller, is featured alongside Shia's real-life love, Mia Goth. Shia himself stars opposite Mia in their upcoming project, Nymphomaniac, which was directed by the provocative Danish filmmaker Lars von Trier. Shia told The New York Times that Lars made casting the short "quiet easy" and that he "found a very special actress in Mia Goth. I pitched it to her on set. She agreed."

Shia's latest task as director takes a gory and somewhat disturbing turn involving eerie scenes of blood and death. Watch Shia's new short and tell us what you think — do you applaud him for taking risks behind the camera, or is it just too bloody to watch?

Will Jennifer Lopez Return to American Idol?

Jennifer Lopez wore a sheer floral blouse to attend the 2013 nuvoTV upfronts at the Edison Ballroom in NYC yesterday.

Jennifer Lopez wore a sheer floral blouse to attend the 2013 nuvoTV upfronts at the Edison Ballroom in NYC yesterday. Jennifer has a special connection to the network since she is the chief creative officer for the new TV channel, which is the first English-language cable network for modern Latinos in the US. While showing support for her own crop of new shows, Jennifer chatted about making a return to another network, Fox, for American Idol. She left her answer about returning to the judges table open-ended, saying, "I don't know. That's the question of the moment. I loved doing the show. I've said that over and over. If it came down to it, and things were right, and it worked out right — we have a lot going on right now. For an offer to come in and for me to consider it, I would have to sit down and look at my next year." It was announced yesterday that Nicki Minaj is leaving American Idol after judging for one season, so there could be a spot open for J Lo.

Jennifer has been spending the bulk of her time in NYC after making an appearance at the Met Gala earlier this month. She could be making a more permanent transition to the East Coast since she is reportedly buying a $10 million home in the Hamptons.

David Beckham Is Retiring!

After signing a five-month deal with his current team, Paris Saint-Germain, in January, David Beckham has announced he will retire at the end of the season.

After signing a five-month deal with his current team, Paris Saint-Germain, in January, David Beckham has announced he will retire at the end of the season. In a statement, David revealed the reasoning behind hanging up his cleats, explaining, "I'm thankful to PSG for giving me the opportunity to continue but I feel now is the right time to finish my career, playing at the highest level. If you had told me as a young boy I would have played for and won trophies with my boyhood club, Manchester United, proudly captained and played for my country over 100 times, and lined up for some of the biggest clubs in the world, I would have told you it was a fantasy. I'm fortunate to have realized those dreams."

The former England captain, who began his career with Manchester United at the young age of 14, will retire with a decorated history in the sport boasting many on-field accomplishments, including winning six Premier League titles and the Champions League. David also took the field for the US as a member of the LA Galaxy for six years and had a stint with Real Madrid, winning titles with both to add to his collection with Manchester United. His storied career will conclude in Paris on May 18 with PSG's game against Brest. In looking to the future, David said, "Nothing will ever completely replace playing the game I love. However, I feel like I'm starting a new adventure and I'm genuinely excited about what lies ahead. I'm fortunate to have been given many opportunities throughout my career and now I feel it's my time to give back."

Miranda Kerr modeled two skimpy black swimsuits during a photo shoot with fashion photographer Mariano Vivanco today in Miami. Miranda shared her excitement about the session by posting a picture of herself with Marino on Instagram. She also posted on social media over the weekend, when she proclaimed she had the "Best Mothers Day ever with my little man."

While Miranda was hard at work flaunting her figure, she was also in the spotlight for her connection to the infamous teenage robbery scheme that took place in 2008 and 2009. Lingerie was reportedly stolen from Miranda as part of the heist by the group of teenagers dubbed The Bling Ring, who targeted numerous celebrity homes throughout LA. The news was announced at an interesting time, since Sofia Coppola‘s film adaptation of the story, The Bling Ring, starring Emma Roberts, debuts at the Cannes Film Festival tomorrow.

Natalie Portman treated her son, Aleph Millepied, to a fun afternoon around Paris yesterday after spending Mother's Day weekend together in LA. She took her little one for a ride on a carrousel in the Jardin des Plantes followed by a stroll through a flowery park. The mother-son duo are getting comfortable in their home base of Paris, where they'll soon take up residence since Natalie's husband, Benjamin Millepied, acquired the position as the new director of dance at the Paris Opera Ballet beginning in September.

Natalie is fitting in quality time with Aleph before her work schedule picks up with new projects. She is currently signed on for Jane Got a Gun along with recently added costar Ewan McGregor, and she's also reportedly set to star as Lady Macbeth opposite Michael Fassbender in the big-screen adaptation of William Shakespeare's Macbeth.

Kate Moss dressed down in a suede jacket adorned with fringe to show her support for her close pal, famed photographer David Bailey, during a charitable evening out at the Bulgari Hotel in London last night. Kate's relationship with David dates back many years, since she has posed for the highly regarded British photographer on multiple occasions over her modeling career. The event, which was hosted by David, included a charity auction benefiting Marie Curie Cancer Care to celebrate the launch of the Samsung Smart Camera NX300. Kate switched gears to friends after kicking off the week with family. On Sunday, Jamie Hince's parents, Carole and William, visited the Cotswolds, and the foursome stepped out for lunch.

Leo, Carey, and the Gatsby Crew Get the Cannes Party Started

Leonardo DiCaprio suited up to join his The Great Gatsby leading lady, Carey Mulligan, to kick off the Cannes Film Festival with a glamorous photocall for their film today. Leo and Balenciaga-clad Carey were joined by the rest of their costars, Isla Fisher, Tobey Maguire, Joel Edgerton, as well as the film's director, Baz Luhrmann, as the annual festival got under way in the South of France. It was a busy day for the Gatsby crew, who also participated in a press conference to discuss the film that opened in the US last Friday. Gatsby will make its European premiere tonight in Cannes. The Great Gatsby boasted impressive numbers in its first week, raking in $51.1 million from its US debut.

Leo and his longtime friend Tobey Maguire were reunited at the festival after pairing up earlier this week in NYC. Tobey showed his support at Leonardo's Christie's auction, which raised $35 million to benefit environmental and wildlife conservation efforts, a cause that is backed by the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation.

Prince Harry Gets His Game On

Although Prince Harry was in NYC, he may have felt a bit at home as he hopped on a special London tour bus with UK Prime Minister David Cameron.

Although Prince Harry was in NYC, he may have felt a bit at home as he hopped on a special London tour bus with UK Prime Minister David Cameron. They arrived at Milk Studios in the Big Apple, where the red double-decker was included in a showcase of British trailblazers in technology as a part of the GREAT campaign, which promotes the UK around the world. He later rolled up his sleeves to try his hand at America's game — baseball. He visited the field in Harlem to launch a partnership between the Harlem RBI and The Royal Foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry. It was a busy day for Prince Harry, who made a visit to the Jersey Shore this morning, where he accompanied New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie to survey the damage left behind by Hurricane Sandy.

Prince Harry and the governor toured Seaside Heights, which was one of the areas most devastated by October's hurricane. After promising to keep Prince Harry fully clothed during his visit — a joke made in relation to Harry's nude photo scandal in Las Vegas last year — Gov. Christie kept true to his vow by gifting the visiting royal with a version of his own fleece and joked on Twitter, "Greeting Prince Harry at the Jersey Shore the best way I know how; with his own Royal Fleece."

The royal is making his first visit to the US since his mishap in Las Vegas and has already made stops in Colorado, Maryland, and Washington DC since kicking off his tour last week. Over the weekend, he attended the Warrior Games in Colorado Springs, CO, where he was treated to cheerleaders and football as part of the Paralympics-style competition for wounded and disabled veterans.

Leo's Star-Studded Auction Makes Millions For the Environment

Leonardo DiCaprio teamed up with Christie's to cohost the 11th Hour Auction in NYC last night.

Leonardo DiCaprio teamed up with Christie's to cohost the 11th Hour Auction in NYC last night. It was a successful event for Leo since the auction reportedly raised $35 million to benefit environmental and wildlife conservation efforts, almost doubling the goal of $18 million. He had the support of his longtime friend and Great Gatsby costar Tobey Maguire, who put in a winning bid on one of 33 pieces of contemporary art. Leo contributed something from his own art collection, a print called "Ocean V" by well-known photographer Andreas Gursky. Also out for the evening were Bradley Cooper, Mark Ruffalo, and Salma Hayek.

It was Leonardo's second art-inspired outing in as many days, since he also made an appearance at the Brant Foundation Art Study Center's Andy Warhol showing in Greenwich, CT, on Sunday. He'll be switching gears from art to film in the coming days, though, when he debuts The Great Gatsby in Cannes later this week.
