Zoe Saldaña and Marco Perego recounted the dramatic anecdote about their engagement

Zoe Saldana and Salma Hayek are enjoying each other’s company during a double date in Venice, Italy.

If Italian artist Marco Perego-Saldaña’s transition to film comes as a surprise, it is only to those outside his own household. “I always wanted to make a film. I’m a little obsessed. I watch one film Monday to Friday,” he says. “Sunday, actually,” corrects his wife Zoe Saldaña, with a laugh.

Carlos Aguilar Two parallel but inevitably intersecting stories make up Italian-born director Marco Perego‘s debut feature “The Absence of Eden,” a strikingly shot and superbly acted immigration drama.

For nearly a decade, Bergh has recorded the multi-hyphenate star behind the scenes as she has charted new paths as a content producer and beauty mogul, and danced her way onto America’s biggest stage — the Super Bowl Halftime Show.

, however, chose to embody a very specific, very iconic New York stereotype while house-hunting with Ben Affleck over the weekend: The Boss.On Saturday, March 30, Lopez wore all the hallmarks of aN HBIC: a no-nonsense slicked-back bun, an with shoulder pads that would make even a linebacker cower, impractical— though nonetheless impressive—heels, and impenetrable sunglasses. And let's not forget the most important accessory: a designer handbag (the Hermès Kelly bag in black crocodile) that cost more than an entire year's worth of my rent.The rest of her look is really inconsequential by comparison—she could've been wearing a sweatsuit underneath that black coat, and the effect would've been the same.
