Scarlett Johansson shows off her engagement ring as she strides into the annual Costume Institute Gala during the superhero-themed soiree held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC.
The 23-year-old beauty is the belle of the ball, and everyone including Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, Eva Longoria Parker, TomKat, the Beckhams and more will congratulate her on the milestone.
Meanwhile, throngs of reporters are camped out on either side of the steps hoping to capture the attention of Hollywood’s brightest stars. Tom Cruise waves as Katie Homes beams while Julia Roberts, George Clooney and Sarah Larson make their way into the party.
How did regal-looking Victoria Beckham pick out her dress?
“Mr. Armani picked it out for me,” Posh says, turning around before she goes into the event. “I love it.”
Fergie’s ponytail is in full swing as Donald Trump (and his hair) plus wife Melania and daughter Ivanka stroll through.
What superpower would Taylor Swift most enjoy?
“I’d want to see what people were thinking in a subtitle underneath what they were saying,” she says. “That would be fantastic.”
Diane Kruger’s inspiration for her dress is She-Ra, the Princess Warrior. “I feel very sexy.” Her boyfriend, Joshua Jackson, longs for the ability to fly. “Just to be able to get around the lines at the airport. It would shave hours off the trip.”
When Gossip Girl’s Blake Lively is asked what she would do if she lost her Ralph Lauren bracelet, her rep chimes in. “She’s very responsible. She never loses things.” Blake laughs nervously. Her rumored beau, Penn Badgely, says he needs to draw the line between his personal and private life. (Good move) But he agrees that Blake looks beautiful tonight.

Chris Noth expresses an affinity for the Fantastic Four … Hayden Christensen (with Rachel Bilson) gives props to Superman … Amanda Peet is loving The Hulk … Mischa Barton’s favorite is Wonder Woman … and Emily Mortimer goes for Flash Gordon. “He’s the campest,” she says.

“There’s something very magical about tonight,” she says.

Amanda Peet’s Halloween Plans
October 22nd, 2007 / Author: OK! Staff
Amanda Peet is going to milk her first Halloween as a mom for all it’s worth – her 8-month-old daughter Frances Pen is going to be a cow come Oct. 31.
“She’s going to be a cow,” the Martian Child star tells OK!. “Because we love that Bob Dylan song – “Milk Cows Half Blues” – and we sing it to her a lot. And one of the animals is a cow.”
Motherhood has changed Amanda’s priorities in life, but the 35-year-old, who’s married to screenwriter David Benioff, says she doesn’t feel inclined to take kid-friendly roles now that she’s a parent. Instead, she just picks up the leftovers.
“I just try gravitate towards the best written one that’s been thrown my way after a lot of girls have passed on it,” she reveals. “That’s really the truth. I’m just being really honest because you’re like, “What roles are you attracted to?” But it’s not like I look for roles. There’s not that much forethought. I just try to get something that’s respectable.”
That also includes television roles. A vet of the small screen, having starred in Jack and Jill and the under-appreciated Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Amanda is dying to get back to TV on her favorite show — 30 Rock.
“I’m trying!” she says. “I’ve been calling and begging, but not yet.”
Hear that, Tina Fey?
