EXCLUSIVE: Penelope Cruz & Javier Bardem Double Date With Sean Penn & Mystery Brunette

Undercover couple Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz tried to have a quiet drink with Sean Penn and a mystery brunette Friday night, but the boys got so raucous everybody in the room knew they were there -- including RadarOnline.com!

The trio of Oscar winners sat at a secluded table on the outside patio at the Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles with Penn's date listening to their animated stories.
Penelope, who recently refused to reveal to David Letterman if she is engaged to handsome Bardem, sat with her back to the bar crowd in an attempt not to be recognized. But her low profile ploy was blown by Bardem and Penn who were laughing loudly at each other's jokes. At one point Penelope even had to gently calm handsome Bardem down by holding his arm as he enthusiastically got out of his seat waving his hands.
"Everyone seemed to be having a good time except Penn's date who appeared slightly subdued," our eyewitness said.

Cruz and Bardem first met after working on Jamon Jamon together in 1992. Their romance took off after they appeared on the big screen again in 2008's Vicky Christina Barcelona.
Penn is currently single after splitting with the mother of his two sons, actress Robyn Wright Penn.

Cruz sparked engagement rumours after she was spotted wearing a sapphire and diamond sparkler on her ring finger at the October premiere of Broken Embraces. But when asked by Letterman to confirm, the 35-year-old star said, “I don’t feel comfortable talking about my private life in public."

Fresh out of the hospital where she was treated for pneumona, Nicole Richie has announced she'll be hosting a New Year's Eve party at LAVO nightclub. Her sidekick for the night will be her baby daddy Joel Madden at the DJ table. Last month the pair was busy building a playground for deserving kids.

Nicole has been largely absent from the club scene since getting together with Joel and becoming a mom but these Vegas hosting jobs come with very nice pay checks.
Nicole spent several days in Cedars-Sinai Medical Center being treated for pneumonia following a stressful few weeks that included an auto accident with photographers and then requesting and getting a restraining order against two shooters.

The family hosted a special screening of their new movie, Old Dogs, that raised $37,500 for five local charities. The Travoltas spent 30 minutes on the red carpet, signing autographs and posing for pictures with fans.
"Kelly, Ella and I want to thank all of you for supporting us over the last year," John told the crowd of several hundred locals. "It's meant the world to us. We know that we have a community.....We appreciate it. Jett appreciates it."

Skateboard Superstar Mike Vallely Arrested After Fight Over Hockey Stick
Posted on Nov 21, 2009 @ 07:03AM - 1 comment
Mike Vallely took one of his young daughters to an Anaheim Ducks hockey game Thursday night and ended up in handcuffs after a battle over a hockey stick. We're not passing judgment but many other famous dads have somehow managed to avoid landing in the cop shop with their kids.

The skateboarder, who also goes by the name Mike V, has long had a promotional relationship with the Ducks. The fight occurred when Ducks captain Scott Niedermayer tried to hand his stick over to a young girl in the stands. Vallely and another dad got into a scuffle, with each claiming the stick was meant for his daughter.
Vallely was cited for fighting in public and released. The other dad's actions are still being investigated by cops.
The Ducks have now severed their ties to Vallely. "As an organization, we do not condone or tolerate this type of behavior," a spokesman said in a statement.
Drink Like The Diddy This Holiday Season!!

HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE:
Eggnog is so passé: This holiday season, make your friends and loved ones happy with the most high-end French vodka on the market right now, CIROC.
The vodka brand, which Sean "Diddy" Combs is a part-owner of, is made from carefully-selected Mauzac Blanc and Ugni Blanc grapes, grown high in the Gaillac region of France, that produce a wine using cold fermentation. It is then distilled five times to produce an exquisite, smooth taste.
The hip-hop icon recycled an 80s marketing trick to show the value of his brand: The blindfolded taste test.
“We’re doing the Diddy CIROC Challenge,” Combs told the Las Vegas Sun. “It’s like the Pepsi Challenge.”
Combs said that the CIROC brand outperformed Belvedere, Grey Goose and Absolut vodkas at an 80 percent rate, "which is just phenomenal -- even we didn’t think it was going to be that high.”
This holiday season, some delicious, and seasonal, cocktail recipes have been concocted for CIROC, as well as gift packages that will bring smiles to the recipients' faces.
For more info, check out Ciroc.com.

Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat: that was the idea Taylor Lautner had in mind when appearing on Thursday's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. The New Moon star took on the show's zany host in a mini-bike race and won, albeit by some underhanded means.

The bikes were so small, Fallon joked he, "got them in a cereal box." Lautner sighed, “Get on this?!?”
