Si Newhouse, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld Dismiss Vogue Replacement Rumors; Another Name Floated Around After all the rumors on Gawker today that Anna Wintour was going to be replaced as editor-in-chief of Vogue by Carine Roitfeld starting in January 2009, Si Newhouse decided to put the talk to rest. After receiving a copy of the original Gawker item via fax in Europe, he denied through a spokeswoman that anything was amuck: "It’s the silliest rumor I ever heard. There is no truth to it."
Anna Wintour Out, Carine Roitfeld In at Vogue? Did Lauren Weisberger predict the future? The Devil Wears Prada had Miranda Priestly, the Anna Wintour character, being replaced by Jacqueline Follet, the Carine Roitfeld character — until Miranda maneuvered her way out of it — and according to rumors, that might just be what is in the works in real life.

While one star of
Australia was elsewhere in town at the
women of the year awards, Hugh Jackman got dressed up to honor director Baz Luhrmann at the MoMA. The handsome actor was just one of the stars out
looking fabulous alongside Jessica Biel in a simple
LBD and Rachel Weisz in one with flattering pink accents. Maggie Gyllenhaal draped herself in fur — can you tell if it's
faux or not? — while Peter kept the fuzziness on his face.
Last night at MoMa in New York, Anna Wintour arrived accompanied by her daughter Bee Schafer for the benefit gala. Alongside stars such as Rachel Weisz and a
funky looking Agyness Deyn, the pair were there to honour director Baz Luhrmann. Anna's bob was looking
blonder than usual and super shiny.

Now it's Paris's turn for
Fashion Week, and the celebrities are still happily coming out to see the new collections. Lily Allen, Dita Von Teese, and Katy Perry sat together at Christian Dior yesterday, alongside Zoe Saldana and a
ladylike in gray Emma Watson, who gabbed away on her phone before the show. Salma Hayek and her ex-fiance Francois-Henri Pinault
continued to look close in his home city, watching the Balenciaga show today — just one of the many fashion labels his company PPR owns.
Italy continues to be a celebrity hotspot thanks to
Milan Fashion Week, and this time the stars came out to support Gucci and D&G. Rihanna went for one of her more edgy looks at the Gucci show last night, keeping her legs warm in the front row with a pair of thigh high boots —
love 'em or hate 'em? Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez and Matthew McConaughey had their second reunion in two weeks since they
completed the triathlon together. They looked pretty and polished with Camila and Marc by their sides before the D&G show this morning.
Gwyneth Paltrow was sporting a pair of her favorite super high heels as she made her way around Milan today. She's in town during
Fashion Week to make appearances as the current face of
Tod's. After stopping by one of its new stores, she joined the company's owner Diego Della Valle and Anna Wintour at
a screening of
the promotional film she worked on over the Summer with Dennis Hopper.
The past day was all about the parties along with the clothes at
Fashion Week. Eva Mendes — who it's your
last chance to submit interview questions for! — was having fun at a bash for La Mer, while a
dramatically made up Keira Knightley held court with Anna Wintour at a Cinema Society screening of
The Duchess. Liv Tyler was off hosting an event of her own at the Rose Bar and Michelle Trachtenberg joined Vanessa Minnillo at the grand opening of the
Target Bodegas.
The Duchess had a special screening in New York last night, in association with The Cinema Society and — how fitting for
Fashion Week — Vogue magazine. As
I've described, the costumes in the movie are amazing, but last night both Keira Knightley and model Coco Rocha were working pretty gothic looks on the red carpet. Keira's famous pout was out in full swing as she posed with editor Anna Wintour, until friendly face Dominic Cooper arrived and made her giggle — BellaUK has all the goss on
how to get her smoky eyes!

Fashion Week keeps trucking along with lots of famous faces in the front row and backstage. Fresh from
her Irvine show, Lauren Conrad had Lo Bosworth by her side today for Nanette Lepore, while Rachel Zoe joined Jennifer Lopez to support her
recent favorite, Oscar de la Renta. The
Gossip Girls went their separate ways — Blake Lively
wore the designer joining Heidi Klum at Michael Kors, while Leighton Meester and a surprisingly normal-looking Juliette Lewis went out to see Phillip Lim.
