Sarah Larson Talks About Her "Very Sexy" New Job
Sarah Larson’s relationship with George Clooney may have ended last month, but the gorgeous It girl tells that her budding modeling career is in high gear.
E! News caught up with Larson, 29, at the Lexus Style Villa Sports “Power of H” event Saturday night at the Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego.
Larson, who attended the party with a girlfriend after walking the red carpet solo, said she signed on last week as the face of a new ad campaign for designer Christian Audigier’s line of couture dresses. “I just shot it a few days ago,” Larson told “The shoot was very sexy and feminine. It was a lot of fun.”
Larson, who earlier this year walked the runway at a fashion show during L.A. Fashion Week, explained why she was walking down Robertson Boulevard amid a frenzy of paparazzi on Thursday. “I was meeting with my agent and all of a sudden tons of photographers showed up. It was out of control.”
Larson, who says she’s splitting her time between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, wasn’t offering up any insights into her split with Clooney, but at the party celebrating Lexus’ line of hybrid cars, Larson revealed her Clooney-esque passion for environmental causes. “I’m looking to buy a hybrid so I wanted to check out some of the cars here,” she said.
Larson was sipping champagne in the VIP area at the Lexus party near newly separated Dylan McDermott (he came with his two kids, no date), NFL’er Matt Leinart and actress Kate Walsh, who dined at Nobu inside the Hard Rock after spending the day watching Tiger Woods compete in the U.S. Open in nearby La Jolla, Calif.
Who’s That Naked Guy in Sex and the City?
Move over, Chris Noth! There’s a new Mr. Big in town.
Meet Gilles Marini, who plays Samantha Jones’ neighbor Dante in Sex and the City. He’s the one causing the collective gasp in movie theaters everywhere.
Why?
Well, not only does he appear naked and having sex with one or more women for most of his screen time, but there’s a jaw-dropping side shot of his rather impressive manhood when Samantha catches Dante taking an outdoor shower.
“There was no body double,” Marini assured me yesterday from his L.A.-area home. “It was me!”
Marini, who relocated to the U.S. about a decade ago from his native France to pursue a modeling career (duh!), nabbed the five-day Los Angeles gig after just one callback audition.
“After the first towel drop, I was very comfortable,” the 32-year-old Marini said with a laugh. “As soon as it was ‘Action!’ everything sort of blacks out. I didn’t really realize anyone was there…There’s even more frontal, because we did different takes.”
Director Michael Patrick King said he knew as soon as Marini walked in the door, he had found his guy. “He is that rare combination of hot sex with Bambi eyesirresistible,” King said in an email. “Just ask any of the women who melted in the hallway at his audition. And if I had more time I could think of 10 more inchesI mean reasonswhy I cast him.”
Marini’s wife of 10 years, Carole, went to see the movie on opening night with a couple of friends. “She came home and was like, ‘Gilles, I saw your penis in front of all those crazy women screaming in the movie theater,’ ” said Marini, who will be in New York tomorrow to receive the Best Rear Award at Bravo’s new A-List Awards. “It was shocking, but she understands my job.”
The attention has just begun. He woke up yesterday to 800 new emails. “The entire world saw the movie,” Marini said. “This morning, I could not work out. I went to my gym, and everybody came up to talk to me, and they just talked and talked. That is not going to help with my abs.”
A New Trump: Donald, Melania Have a Boy
It’s a baby boy for Donald Trump and wife Melania, the real-estate entrepreneur announced Monday.
The couple’s son, Barron William Trump, was born at 5 a.m. and weighed in at 8 1/2 lbs., Trump tells PEOPLE.
“It’s a beautiful baby and she’s a beautiful mother,” says the 59-year-old Apprentice star.
Of his wife Melania, Trump said, “I just think she’s looking forward to being a great mother. I have no doubt how good she will be.”
The news of the birth was first announced on MSNBC’s Imus in the Morning, where Trump did a telephone interview. “I continue to stay young, right? I produce children, I stay young,” said the father of five. He already has four children by his two former wives, Ivana and Marla.
Trump was a bit taken aback by the initial news that his new wife was expecting, the couple told PEOPLE last January. “He came home (one day last August), and I told him he’d be a daddy,” said Melania, 35, with a laugh. “And his reaction was … at first he needed to take it in. It was a real surprise. And then he was very happy.”
Correcting his wife, Donald said: “I expected we were going to have children, so I wasn’t totally surprised. But I was surprised by the speed of it. It happened very quickly.” (The Trumps were married in a lavish ceremony in Palm Beach on Jan. 22, 2005.)
For the first few months, Melania plans to stay close to home. “But eventually we will take the baby with us,” she told PEOPLE. Though she hopes to resume her modeling career, she says she’ll be picky about assignments, taking only the ones “that I’m passionate about.” Whether she’s working or not, Melania has already hired a full-time nanny.
