He's known for his action-packed movie roles.

In his other hand, the scruffy-faced star carried a bottle of water, making sure to stay hydrated in the humid city.
Dressed down, the 58-year-old actor wore a faded olive green V-neck, distressed denim trousers, and a pair of black-and-white Nike kicks.
His wife appeared a bit more glammed up for their Manhattan day date.

The 34-year-old English model/actress sported a sleeveless blue button-down blouse atop a fitted white tank top that she paired with slim khaki trousers and pale blue flats.

Both Emma and Bruce flashed smiles for the camera as they went from their big black SUV to their temporary residence.

'I wish people wouldn't just see me as the emotionless Asian girl': Lucy Liu says she has been held back by racism in Hollywood



  • 'People see Julia Roberts or Sandra Bullock in a romantic comedy, not me'
  • 'I got pushed out of both categories, too Asian, too American'
  • 'My relationship status is a giant question mark. I wish I knew the answer'



  • As any actor will attest, the acting industry is tough to break into. But there are even more challenges once you break through, Lucy Liu has confessed.

    In an exclusive interview she talks about the typecasting and racism she's faced. 
    'I wish people wouldn’t just see me as the Asian girl who beats everyone up, or the Asian girl with no emotion. People see Julia Roberts or Sandra Bullock in a romantic comedy, but not me. You add race to it, and it became, "Well, she’s too Asian", or, "She’s too American". 

    'I kind of got pushed out of both categories. It’s a very strange place to be. You’re not Asian enough and then you’re not American enough, so it gets really frustrating.'

    'I can’t say that there is no racism - there’s definitely something there that’s not easy, which makes [an acting career] much more difficult,' she says.
    When quizzed on her love life, Liu shows she's no wiser than the rest of us when it comes to guessing relationship status when in uncertain territory.
     


    'It’s a mixed bag right now... It’s a giant question mark for me, as well. I wish I could answer - I wish I knew the answer myself,' the Charlie’s Angels actress says.
    In the past she has talked of wanting children, but says: 'It just hasn’t happened yet,' adding that she might do it alone at some point.

    In a photo shoot for the eye-opening interview for this week’s Net-A-Porter digital magazine, Liu features in stunning pictures wearing elegantly sculpted graphic dresses and separates by Gucci, Lanvin, Hervé Léger, Maison Martin Margiela and Burberry Prorsum.
    In her latest role she plays a female Dr Watson in the CBS television series, Elementary, the most recent reboot of Sherlock Holmes. 
    'It was a challenge,' she says.
    'It's so steeped in history, you want to keep that temperature, but acclimatise people to something new you're shifting them towards.'

    When asked to reflect on her favourite roles her answer is Lucky Number Slevin with Josh Hartnett and Watching The Detectives, two movies she admits 'not many people' have seen. 
    'Both are special to me because I didn't have to do any kind of action or karate kicks. It was just about the acting, and I was able to stretch my muscles in them,' she says.
    'Well, figuratively, anyway.'

    Whoa baby! Pregnant Halle Berry steps out for her morning workout in fitted yoga clothes


    After announcing her pregnancy a month ago, Halle Berry is finally showing a sizable baby bump.
    The 46-year-old actress is expecting her second child, her first with French fiance Oliver Martinez, this fall. 
    After dropping off her daughter Nahla at school on Friday, Berry headed to Beverly Hills for a morning workout.

    Oh baby! There was no hiding pregnant Halle Berry's bump on Friday when she was dropping daughter Nahla off at school

    Dressed in a baseball cap, t-back tank and yoga pants, Berry headed for a morning workout in Beverly Hills with her billfold in hand and her sunglasses on

    No doubt she's doing her best to stay fit as, despite her pregnancy, she is currently filming X-Men: Days of Future Past in which she reprises her role as Storm.
    Dressed in her sneakers, yoga pants and t-back tank with a jacket tied around her waist, there was no masking her ever growing mid section.
    Berry has said she was shocked when she found out she was pregnant for a second time, as she simply thought she had kidney stones.
     
    'I was at the doctor's when they told me and I was completely shocked,' she told Hello! magazine last month. 'I didn't see it coming. I went to the doctor because I thought I had kidney stones or something.' 
    But she and her husband-to-be were thrilled at the news. 'Olivier and I have always wanted to be parents, but I didn't want to get my hopes up.'
    Hopefully the new child will bring continued peace to the modern family's household. Last Thanksgiving Nahla's father Gabriel Aubry and Martinez got in a bunch up in Berry's driveway.

    Nobody's perfect: Miley Cyrus ditches her healthy lifestyle as she's caught smoking a cigarette and chowing down on fast-food


    She's claimed her toned physique is thanks to a healthy regime of yoga and a gluten-free diet.
    But Miley Cyrus seems to be straying as she was spotted smoking a cigarette and indulging in junk food in Los Angeles on Thursday.
    The 20-year-old was spotted looking trim in a striped t-shirt that cut off at her belly button, revealing her toned tummy as it peeked over a pair of rolled down black yoga trousers.

    She drew even more attention to her leggy frame by throwing on a pair of oversized skater trainers.
    The Party in the USA singer hid her cropped blonde locks under a large beanie and tirelessly tried to shield her blue eyes from the shining sunlight.
    Also spotted on Miley's right hand was her engagement ring, which has played dissapearing tricks as rumours swirl about the on-and-off status of her long engagement to her Last Song co-star Liam Hemsworth.

    The Nobody's Perfect songstress later headed out for a quick meal at local burger chain In-N-Out, riding shotgun beside her mother and manager Trish Cyrus.
    The unhealthy turn for the Can't Be Tamed star comes after her claims that she's taken to yoga to keep fit.
    And she also keeps to a gluten-free diet -- with Friday obviously being a cheat day as she stopped in at the fast-food eatery.

    Friday's smoke session comes as the pop-turned-punk princess has been working hard to scrub away her squeaky clean image after rising to stardom on the Disney Channel series Hannah Montana.
    On Monday she was one of the few guests at the Met Gala in New York City to take the punk theme to heart, spiking her hair up ala Billy Idol and showcasing her curves in a full-length black mesh gown.
    And last week she shared a photo of herself from her Maxim Top 100 spread laying seductively in a swimsuit -- a move she's previously said she's not a fan of.

    Miley recently claimed she was no longer interested in stripping down for photo shoots.
    She told Elle magazine: 'A star is someone who doesn't have to take her clothes off to be sexy because you naturally have star power.
    'Sex does sell, but you have to find a way that's not just showing your t***.

    'I'm at a stage now where I'm not chasing pounds away': X Factor's Craig Colton admits he's happy with slimmer shape


    A few months ago, he unveiled his slimline frame after shifting four stone since he appeared on X Factor.
    And now chart hopeful Craig Colton has insisted he is now happy with his physique as he prepares to release his debut album.

    The former biscuit factory worker, 24, showed off his trimmer shape in a new photoshoot to promote his album, which goes on pre-sale on Friday.

    When he first appeared on The X Factor in 2011, he was known for his powerful vocals and rotund figure.
    During the show, he started slimming down after taking diet tips from his mentor Gary Barlow, who himself battled the bulge.
    Last autumn, Craig revealed his new shape, admitting he had lost 4st since his appearance on the show by hitting the gym and overhauling his diet. 

    What a difference: Craig during his original X Factor audition in 2011

    He told the Liverpool Daily Post: 'I'm at a stage now where I'm not chasing pounds away I'm just doing it to keep fit and healthy.'
    Craig admitted he waited until now to release his debut album because he 'wasn't ready' immediately after leaving the show.
    He said: 'When I finished The X Factor I wasn't ready to do it.

    'I think the best thing about taking this time out is that I'm growing into a young man. I'm an adult now with a mortgage and bills to pay.
    'I've got a different writing style to the music I made after the show. My voice is different too, but in a good way.'
    His album, rumoured to be called Time, is set for release later this year.

    Still feeling sexy! Pregnant Hilaria Thomas swaths her pregnant curves in a slinky low-cut grey sundress as she steps out with Alec Baldwin


    She's hardly gained a pound throughout her pregnancy, except for her baby bump.
    And it's clear that yoga instructor Hilaria Thomas is still feeling sexy throughout her three trimesters.
    The 28-year-old embraced her pregnancy curves and showed them off in a slinky low-cut grey sundress as she and husband Alec Baldwin took their dogs for a stroll in New York on Friday.

    She teamed the revealing attire with a pair of beige stilettos that she's often seen tottering around in.
    Holding on tight to her dog's leashes, Hilaria trailed ahead of Alec as they made their way around the Big Apple.
    The 30 Rock star also displayed his fit figure in a short sleeve black fitted T-shirt paired with matching black trousers and dress shoes.

    Earlier in the week, the pair were seen filming a comedy skit in the street, but it is unknown whom the footage is for.
    Hilariously Alec was seen stuffing his wife's top with a sweater to make it appear even bigger than it already is.
    Filming the comedy routine with his pregnant wife, the pair stood in front of Alec's New York apartment.
    The bit involved making Hilaria look more pregnant by cramming a Governor Chris Christie sweatshirt inside of her sweater.

    Later Alec's daughter Ireland stopped by to watch before hopping in a cab.
    Alec soon will have even more time to spend with his leading ladies, as his Broadway play, Orphans, will close earlier than originally anticipated.
    Despite receiving two Tony Award nominations, the production will end its run at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theater on May 19.

    The play opened in March to mixed reviews from critics and has failed to gross a substantial profit.
    Alec portrayed a gangster held hostage by a pair of criminal brothers played by Ben Foster and Tom Sturridge.
    Meanwhile, Hilaria recently told Us Weekly that she has a certain level of sympathy for Alec now he has a house full of women to contend with, plus his daughter Ireland whose mum is his ex-wife Kim Basinger.

    She said: 'I turned to Alec when the ultrasound was done and was like, 'I get to buy pink things now!'
    'We have two girl dogs and me and now we have the baby girl, so he's just going to be surrounded by girls. And he has his daughter Ireland as well.'
    Prior to finding out his baby would be a girl, Alec previously revealed that he wanted to call the baby Massimo.

    Travelling in comfort : Kirsten Dunst ditches the glam for dressed down cool as she jets away after filming Anchorman 2 scenes


    She's had a busy few days after dressing to the nines for the annual Met Ball in New York earlier this week, before jetting to Atlanta to film some scenes for Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues.
    So it's no wonder Kirsten Dunst has come well accustomed to travelling.
    And one thing's for sure - she's adamant she'll get to her latest destination comfortably if her super dressed down outfit is anything to go by.

    Well seasoned jet setter: Kirsten Dunst went for a casual ensemble as she rounded off her hectic week by flying into Los Angeles from Atlanta, Georgia

    The On The Road actress was spotted arriving at LAX airport on Friday morning flying straight in from work in Atlanta.
    And rather than make the usual celebrity choice to ensure they're dressed to impress knowing full well they'll be photographed on arrival, Kirsten was all to happy to be spotted not at her best.
    The 31-year-old happily sauntered through the airport in skinny jeans with red trainers and a baggy grey T-shirt to round off the boyish ensemble.

    She wore her blonde locks down and wavy in her usual laidback style, while she covered her eyes with large sunglasses.
    The star appeared in good spirits as she made her way out into the sunny Los Angeles air.
    And she'll no doubt be looking forward to some rest at home after her manic few days.

    Happy go lucky: She looked content as she arrived at the airport in her grey T-shirt, jeans and red trainers with sunglasses over her eyes

    She began the week by joining the rest of showbiz royalty at the biggest night in fashion at New York's Met Ball.
    While she's clearly at home in comfortable outfits, she made an exception for the bash as she wowed in a cleavage exposing Louis Vuitton dress.
    The plunging deep green number, which was cut to her navel, also gave a glimpse of side boob when she stood to the side.

    Pleased to be back? Kirsten endured a hectic week, beginning in New York on Monday with the Met Ball, before heading to Atlanta to carry out filming on Wednesday

    But as soon as Monday was over with she headed to join her latest castmates including Will Ferrell and Steve Carrell in Georgia on Wednesday.
    The blonde beauty was seen stripping down to nude lingerie and stockings after hopping into a harness for her scenes. 
    Showing off her ample cleavage in the barely there undergarments, she had been strapped into the device after balancing on a barrel.

    Earlier, she was seen standing on a balcony in a cream and gold gown teamed with extravagant headpiece.
    Seemingly harking back to the Roman era, she was playing a long gold trumpet. 
    It is unknown what role Kirsten plays in the new comedy sequel but it has so far been described as a 'cameo' part.
