Buzz Briefs: Paris Hilton, Julianne Moore


Celebrities Prepare For Valentines Day

Us Weekly, asked celebrities what their Valentines Day plans are. Here is what some of the celebrities had to say:

"I am single so I will be in Las Vegas working with my clothing line and doing the Pussy Cat Dolls show," Paris Hilton told the magazine.

"I better not tell you [what I got Melania for Valentine's Day]. It's a very, very risqué question," Donald Trump said.

"I will do my usual and dress as cupid and chase my wife around the house with competition-level bow and arrows. I'm a sharp shooter - my wife doesn't like it," Will Ferrell said.

"I have no love life. No, I'm going to love me. How about that? I'm going to go buy myself some diamonds," Vivica A. Fox said.

Pittsburgh Attracting Filmmakers

2Julianne Moore stars in a supernatural thriller that will begin shooting this spring in the Pittsburgh area.

Filming of "Shelter" is expected to begin in late March or early April, said Rudy Scalese, director of development for Nala Films LLC.

Moore, 47, has received Oscar nominations for her roles in "Boogie Nights," "The Hours," "The End of the Affair" and "Far From Heaven."

Scalese said the $75 million that state lawmakers approved last year for annual tax incentives for movie production helped in the final decision to shoot in western Pennsylvania.

The tax break has helped lure several productions to the area, said Dawn Keezer, director of the Pittsburgh Film Office.

Kevin Smith is shooting his comedy "Zack and Miri Make a Porno" in the region. Filming of "The Road," starring Charlize Theron and Viggo Mortensen, is scheduled to begin later this month.

"Right now, we're just so incredibly busy and we keep getting calls every day," Keezer said.

Country Stars Donate Collectible To Museum

Marty Stuart and Connie Smith gave a sweetheart gift to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, just in time for Valentine's Day.

The Grand Ole Opry stars, who are married, have donated Lester Flatt's 1950 Martin D-28 guitar. The instrument, which some have called "the Holy Grail of bluegrass guitars," was used on most of Flatt and Earl Scruggs' classic recordings and live performances.

Flatt & Scruggs are perhaps best known for their tunes "Foggy Mountain Breakdown" and "The Ballad of Jed Clampett" from the 1960s TV show "The Beverly Hillbillies."

Flatt bought the guitar for $115 at a Charleston, W.Va., pawnshop in 1956.

In the 1970s he loaned it to Stuart, then a prodigy in his band.

Stuart fell in love with the guitar and often played it until Flatt retired and disbanded his group.

Stuart thought he'd never see it again, but after Flatt's death in 1979 he was able to buy it from Flatt's daughter, Brenda, and has had it ever since.

"It's possibly one of the greatest rhythm instruments ever made," said Stuart, an avid collector.

Stuart and Smith also donated some of their own stage costumes and instruments to the Hall of Fame on Wednesday, as well as items once belonging to Johnny Cash and Hank Williams.

"Today" Show, Fonda Apologize For Vulgar Slang

3NBC News is apologizing again - this time for Jane Fonda.

The 70-year-old actress used a vulgar slang term on the "Today" show Thursday while talking about the play "The Vagina Monologues." Fonda is appearing in a 10th-anniversary performance.

Fonda said she was asked to perform a monologue with a slang term for vagina as the title - and Fonda used the term itself on the air.

About 10 minutes later, co-host Meredith Vieira told viewers that "Today" and Fonda apologized for the remark.

NBC has recently apologized for comments made by Chris Matthews and David Shuster.

Keith Urban Makes A Valentine Tribute To Wife, Nicole Kidman

4Although a day early, Keith Urban couldn't wait to wish his pregnant wife Nicole Kidman a Happy Valentine's Day.

According to PEOPLE Magazine, during the encore for his Wednesday night concert in Madison Square Garden - co-headlined by American Idol Carrie Underwood - the country superstar dedicated his hit, "Got It Right This Time," to Kidman, who's back home in their native Australia.

"It's Valentine's Day here tomorrow," he told the crowd, "but today it's already Valentine's Day in Australia."

The dedication ended a successful show for Urban, who walked out into the crowd during the show, autographed his guitar, and handed it to a fan.

"It won't take so long to come back this time ...," he pledged at the end of the show. "We'll be back in New York real soon."

Michelle Williams Has A New Outlook On Life

5In an interview with the U.K.'s Wonderland Magazine conducted before Heath Ledger's accidental overdose on Jan. 22, Michelle Williams opened up about their breakup - and learning to move on.

"Obviously so much has changed for me in the last few months that I don't really have an idea of what my life is going to be," the 27-year-old - who split with Ledger, the father of their 2-year-old daughter, Matilda, last September - says in the just-published interview. "I thought I knew certain things and it turned out that I didn't, so I don't really try and anticipate so much anymore. I'm not making any bets on the future."

The former Dawson's Creek star said she was throwing herself into life as a single parent, cherishing time with her daughter and nesting in her Brooklyn brownstone (the home she once shared with Ledger).

And while the breakup was painful, Williams said she had managed to find one silver lining: Less attention from the paparazzi.

"When you're in a relationship with somebody who is also a public personality, then it doubles the attention from the media," she explained. "When you minus that equation, it's just less enticing. That's been a real bonus. It's the plus side of the break-up for me."

That peace is certainly a distant memory now as Williams - just back from Ledger's funeral in Australia - settles back into life in New York.

On Monday of this week, the actress returned to work on the film Mammoth, which she had been filming in Sweden when she learned of the actor's untimely death.

In her only public statement since then, Williams said, "My heart is broken." But she vowed that Matilda - who is the "spitting image of her father," says the actress - "will be brought up in the best memories of him."
