Kiefer Sutherland Headbutts Proenza Designer Maybe Protecting Brooke Shields

Molly — Wed, 06 May 2009 08:11:55 PDT

Some drama went down after Monday night's Costume Institute Gala involving Kiefer Sutherland, Brooke Shields, and so-hot-right-now designer Jack McCollough of Proenza Schouler. The details are still a bit iffy, but the gist of the story is that Kiefer headbutted Jack, which sent the designer to the hospital. According to Kiefer's side of things, Jack knocked Brooke over at an afterparty, which caused the altercation. Other rumors say that Brooke was in an argument with Jack, and when Kiefer demanded he apologize, Jack refused, which caused it to get violent. Brooke's rep, on the other hand, says that McCollough did nothing wrong. Unfortunately, stories of Kiefer's behavior earlier in the night don't necessarily help the credibility of the actor, who is still on probation from his DUI. The whole thing sounds a bit fishy, but we'll see how it unfolds as more and more details emerge.

How-To: Alek Wek's Makeup at the Met's Costume Institute Gala

BellaSugar — Wed, 06 May 2009 06:00:42 PDT

Model Alek Wek is a stunningly gorgeous gal, and at the age of 32, I swear the Sudanese native doesn't look a day over 20. How does she do it? To create her makeup look last night at the 2009 Costume Institute Gala, artist Oslyn Holder used all Lancôme products.

I'm loving how Alek's eyes are emphasized with a customized blend of black- and purple-toned shadows, set off by glossy burgundy lips. If you'd like to re-create this look at home, I've got all the details when you

Eyes: Holder lined the upper lash line with Le Stylo Waterproof in Noir ($23.50) and blended Color Design Eye Shadow in Statuesque ($16.50) and Color Design Eye Shadow Backstage Pass ($16.50) on the eyelid. An application of Hypnôse Mascara in Deep Black ($24) finished off this feature.
Cheeks: To accentuate Alek's cheekbones, Holder used Color Design Cream Blush in Chic Cassis ($27).
Lips: A few swipes of Color Fever Gloss in Intense ($25) were applied to the lips to bring it all together. Simply stunning.
