While many stars would never shill for ice cream, cars, coffee or liquor in America, plenty of them do it overseas, a la Bill Murray in Lost in Translation.

Orson Welles, Audrey Hepburn, Leonardo DiCaprio, Keanu Reeves, Ben Stiller and George Clooney have all done Japanese ads but never American ones.

How else can Brad afford six babies?

OMG, SJP!

Sarah Jessica Parker is pure Audrey Hepburn-Funny Face on the steps of the New York Public Library at Thursday’s Sex and the City: The Movie DVD launch party.

Reese Witherspoon is becoming the iconic muse of Nina Ricci the way Audrey Hepburn was for Givenchy.

When she arrived at the 2007 Golden Globes, post-breakup from husband Ryan Phillippe, in a stunning yellow strapless Nina Ricci cocktail dress, ten pounds lighter and with bangin’ bangs, a star was reborn and a fashion house catapulted to the forefront.

Nina Ricci and Reese Witherspoon have been synonymous ever since.

Keira Knightley has been cast as Eliza Doolittle in an update of the classic musical My Fair Lady, first staged in 1956 featuring Julie Andrews and Rex Harrison and later turned into the Oscar-winning 1964 film with Harrison and Audrey Hepburn.
