Lisa Edelstein is one of those women who I find just absolutely beautiful whether she’s walking around town, or at a premier. This week, we were able to find pics of both!

First we have Lisa getting her shop on while around Piazza di Spagna in Rome looking lovely in pink. Then, she was invited to the 2009 Rome Fiction Festival, gorgeous in white.

In case you were wondering what the Fiction Festival was, I know I didn’t know:

Today the RomaFictionFest is the number one international event dedicated to television drama, an accomplishment that has been made possible by its artistic and productive high standards.

So an awards show just for television drama? Very interesting.

More pics of the wonderful Lisa Edelstein enjoying Rome below. I wonder if George Clooney knows she’s in the area?

What a week for the Tour de France! Holy cow.

Since we are now on a rest day, I thought I would do a little post on the fun that can go on when the riders aren’t on the road.

Team Astana and Garmin/Slipstream have been getting some visits from celebrities since the beginning of the Tour. Bono, Ben Stiller and Robin Williams all took photos with Lance Armstrong, or did videos with the team. [see after the jump]

And the cyclists seem to have penchant for Twitter! Trust me, if you want a few giggles follow some of these guys! Mark Cavendish [Columbia/Highroad@isleofmanhood], Lance Armstrong [Astana @lancearmstrong], Michael Rogers [CHR @mickrogers] and Levi Leipheimer [Astana @levileipheimer] in particular.

And I have to give a shout out to Cadillac @CadillacCulturewho is SPONSORING the Tour de France on Versus (the channel the TdF is broadcast on in the States)

To see a list of the riders who tweet, see after the jump just after the videos! BTW videos play automatically

Have a great rest day!

It’s story time! Sit at the feet of a Hollywood icon, and have a snack. Kirk Douglas is about to tell us a story!

Happy Anniversary
Current mood: animated
I wasn’t going to tell you this story, but I can’t resist. Not long ago, it was my 55th Wedding Anniversary. My wife said, “Honey, you never buy me anything. Oh, you send you assistant to buy me flowers or a gift, but you never go and pick out a gift yourself.” I thought about that, she’s right. So, I decided to get my wife a piece of jewelry, up to $5,000.00. I went to a famous jewelry store with my assistant Grace. They ushered me into a private room and they displayed many pieces of jewelry. I liked the first one I saw, a beautiful necklace and a matching bracelet. I said, “How much is that?” He said, “$800,000.00″ I almost fell off my chair. And then I thought, perhaps he’s thinking in terms of Euros. I said, “That’s almost a million dollars!” He said, smilingly, “That’s right.” I said, “I wasn’t thinking of spending that much money.” He replied, “What where you thinking of?”

Now, I was embarrassed to tell him that I was thinking of something that cost $5,000.00 so I said, “I was thinking about $400,000.00.” “Oh, we can’t do that,” he said. So I quickly exited with Grace saying over my shoulder, “we’ll think about it.” I was so anxious to get out of that store. I had Grace order a big bouquet of orchids (my wife’s favorite flower) for our anniversary.

An hour later, my office called me, “The jewelry store just called, they have decided to give the necklace and the bracelet for $400,000.00″ I gulped, “Tell them I’m so sorry, I just got my wife a present, maybe next time.” And I breathed a sigh of relief.

We may have already seen how the wedding went in Us Magazine, but tonight, on Kendra, we get to see how it all came together. Kendra Wilkinson is taking her future inlaws, parents of NFL player Hank Baskett, to see the Playboy Mansion. Awkward?

Kendra and former girl next door, Bridget Marquardt also head out for a bridal gown fitting. ahhh…

See the clip above!

Sometimes, my job is funny. I get emails from other sites, with titles like “THE BEST VIDEOS EVER” and “Sure way to pick up more readers!!!” Whatever.

Not just hot ones, but ones who work out and have healthier eating habits.
