While at Sundance, new couple Emily Blunt and John Krasinski could barely contain their public displays of affection!
The pair arrived hand-in-hand at Village at The Yard’s T-Mobile G1 Dinner on Jan. 16 and kept "smiling and winking at each other" once inside says an insider.
While his relationship with Emily, 25, is still new, a pal of John, 29, tells OK! The Office Star’s ex Rashida Jones is heartbroken. "She really, really liked him," the pal says.
Meanwhile, it’s not all play and no work for Krasinski. The actor is at Sundance to promote his new film Brief Interviews for Hideous Men, which he both wrote and directed.
Of the film, Krasinski said recently, "I never wanted to be a writer, never wanted to direct anything," Krasinski said. "People talk about being a triple threat. I’m still working on being a single threat! Acting’s what I love the most."

Keeping Up With The Kardashians star Kim Kardashian reveals that beau Reggie Bush, 23, now has no problem keeping up with her when it comes to dressing up!
"He’s gotten an overhaul," Kim, 28, tells OK!. "Reggie hired a stylist and we cleaned out his entire closet. He got custom-made stuff."
So might that new wardrobe include a tux for when the couple (together since April 2007) eventually say ‘I Do?’
"Marriage is something we talk about," said Kim at OK!’s Sundance Dinner at the Vitaminwater house in Park City, Utah, on Jan. 17. "People ask all the time, ‘when are you getting engaged?’ Isn’t it supposed to be a surprise? I don’t want to know!"
Reggie recently told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show that he was definitely ready for marriage, revealing, "I’m going to lock it down," adding that there was plenty of space in his apartment for a special someone, even going so far as to say, "There’s room for a nursery!"

After seeing photos of them lovingly prancing around Aspen over the holidays in their matching red snowsuits, it’s clear newlyweds Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are into practicing much more than their skiing! But when it comes to their baby-making plans, Cannon says–yes, it’s part of the grand scheme, just not yet.
"We’re definitely into planning a family and stuff but when everything calms down and we get the time," he told E!’s Mark Malkin at the Sundance Film Festival. "We’re just running and gunning now and enjoying being newlyweds."
Better watch out Nick! Too much "enjoying being newlyweds" can land you with a family real quick!
The couple may want to wait because they’re planning a collaboration of sorts. Cannon says, "It’ll be something more out of fun than serious. We’re going to do some comedy stuff together. You’ll see us this year doing some really funny stuff."
Cannon is in Sundance to promote his film The Killing Room, also starring Chloe Sevigny and Timothy Hutton. He’s also deejaying at tonight’s House of Hype party for the wifey’s new flick Push.
Of his own foray into film, Cannon says, "It was my first real chance to be a serious method actor. I lost like 20 pounds for the role. I didn’t eat. I slept outside. I didn’t comb my hair for a month. I went into seclusion."
But don’t expect Mariah to go to the premiere! "She likes fun, lighthearted comedies," he explains.

Jessica Alba apologizes if she’s not showing more excitement for her new film, next week’s The Eye, these days. She’s got more important things to focus on or, rather, “thing” — her pregnancy.
"Being pregnant is kind of like a sedative,” Jessica tells The Daily 10. “Everything’s just chill. I don’t get as anxious about things. Like right now, a movie coming out, you know over analyzing everything. And now I’m just kind of like [shrugs]. I got something else going on."
Pregnancy is not without its imperfections, of course.
“[I have] heartburn, the hiccups,” she says. “I wake up to hiccups every single morning. Never had hiccups before."
The 26-year-old is due in the spring. The baby’s father is her fiancé, producer Cash Warren, for whom she predicts a bright future in filmmaking. "His first movie (Made in America) got into Sundance, and it’s incredibly well-received," she says. "He’s worked hard. He really hasn’t stopped."
As for her own career, Jessica says it’s important to maintain a perspective on the glitz and glamour.
"It is… a crazy business and when you get caught up in it you can lose your cool a bit… I look at it as a job. I love what I do. I love entertaining people, I love making movies… that’s the ultimate for me in this business."

A jack of all trades, a master of none.
That pretty sums up how I felt this year at Sundance -covering events and hosting events, working and playing, stressing (making deadlines) and relaxing (getting a massage).
But, as the stress of making it through a sleepless Sundance fades and the knowledge that eight hours sleep is only a few sentences away, I can already reflect happily on another great, memorable festival.
This year Paris was back, making out with multiple boys, posing for the cameras, spending the week partying and gifting in Park City without a movie screening at the festival…Sadly she’s become as consistent a staple of Sundance as skiing and snow.
Consistent for me this year – I still have yet to see a movie or snowboard in Sundance. Different was hosting a portrait studio that had me spending a lot of time in one place. A classy way to cover Sundance and a great way to make new relationships (I think Brittany Murphy and her husband Simon Monjack are my new BFF), it was an experience being on the other side of the tables – having to do everything from invites to music - a detail I forgot and I had to resort to plugging in my ipod - which led to having to explain that while I’m not embarrassed I like “The Little Mermaid,” “Nickleback,” “The Beatles” and “Phantom at the Opera,” why they came on successively.
The studio was at new concept space Village at the Yard, a former lumber yard that was converted into a winter wonderland of sorts as imagined by my friend Tony Berger who through his company Relevent produced the little ‘village.’ The escape from Main Street housed the T-mobile Diner (a converted garage painted pink where they served free food and had walls lined with laptops), a drugstore, where you could grab necessities from toothpaste to Airborne (compliments of drugstore.com), our studio that turned into hotspot Hyde at night and a sled hill – where I went tubing to revive every morning and watched my friends sled on less than sober after the bar at night.
It was a lot of work, but a lot of fun, and why choose work if it isn’t fun. Pictured, Tony and I having fun while at work. Does that even make sense? I’m still tired. ' class='wp-smiley' /> xo</p>

Paris Hilton may be enjoying her time at Sundance, but she’s still keeping tabs on all the drama happening back home. Topping today’s list, of course, is Britney Spears’ latest deposition.
Of her friendship with Brit, Paris says she still keeps in touch with her old party pal. "I talked to her a couple of days ago and she’s doing well," the heiress reveals to The Insider.
"I wish people would just leave her alone. It’s hard growing up with the media and everyone following her around. She’s such a sweet girl. If people really knew her, they would know that. I love her so much."
The Insider caught up with Paris last night at the Sundance Film Festival, where the infamous blond is currently promoting her new film, The Hottie and the Nottie.
For the full story, tune into The Insider tonight. Check your local times.

Kate Hudson’s ex Chris Robinson keeps it real — maybe a little too real. The Black Crowes rocker complained in Relix magazine (and reported in Page Six) that rock and rollers today are too clean. "Everything is squeaky clean. Even the punk-rock bands are clean. …You’re not supposed to get your hair done that much, you know what I mean? You’re supposed to look like [bleep] because you did it yourself and you never bathe. You can’t be punk rock if you buy all your [bleep] at Fred Segal." No mention of rock stars who marry beautiful Hollywood actresses.
Do you have what it takes… to be Sean "Diddy" Comb’s assistant? The hip hop mogul is looking for a brave man or woman to take on the responsibility of being there for him 24/7, to act as a "liaison between the Chairman and his family" and "coordinate with Wardrobe Manager to pack clothing selection for business and personal trips," reports Rush & Molloy. Sounds like fun?
Marilyn Manson ex Dita Von Teese will attend the Vienna Opera Ball later this month. No, she won’t be on the arm of some goth musician — she’ll be there as the special date of Richard Lugner, a 75-year-old real estate and construction mogul. Lest Von Teese feel special, Lugner’s past dates include Paris Hilton, Carmen Electra and Pam Anderson. He gets around!
And the rich get richer: At this year’s Sundance Film Festival, the celebrity set will get top notch swag, including iPhones, iPods, PlayStation gaming consoles, designer bags and boutique jewelry. A lucky few will also walk away with a four-day stay in Portugal’s Duero Wine Valley, courtesy of Aquapura Hotels.

There is not a more pleasing exercise of the mind than gratitude. It is accompanied with such an inward satisfaction that the duty is sufficiently rewarded by the performance. ~Joseph Addison
Well, since I probably won’t be getting much more exercise than trudging up and down the mountain that is Main St. in Park City, Utah the next few days, I’ll take this time to exercise my mind with gratitude for my friends that will be in Sundance with me.
And, I apologize if I I happen to become the poster child for PMS symptoms, over-stressed with little things like which snow boots to wear or how to style my hair and less concerned about remembering directions to where we’re going or if we’re all ‘on the list.’
I apologize for the ranting I’ll be doing when having little anxiety attacks that I’ll think are heart attacks while I try to remotely file my pages before deadline – east coast deadlines that will be the middle of the night when I’m writing in Utah – where I hope the new wireless card that’s being overnight FedEx’d to me tomorrow will arrive and work.
So, I’m sorry to my friends for the things that I know I will do, and am gracious to the whole house full of them – a half a dozen to nearly a dozen on any given day – who I’m gracious love me anyway - before, during and after Sundance
