• The dress is too tight, in my opinion, but it does disprove all of those "Ashanti gained so much weight" rumors. [C&D]

As Halle Berry learned the hard way, the blousy shift dress does a passable job of hiding a baby bump only about 70 percent of the time.

For the remaining 30 percent, you need to just hope people aren't snapping a lot of pictures.

At her Sweetface fashion show today, J.Lo might have slipped up and revealed a bit more of her suspiciously protruding tummy than she would have liked.

Last night, stars came out in droves for the Fashion Rocks concert. Most of them looked adorable (see Mary J. Blige in her cute Bonnie & Clyde look) and others need to start looking for new fashion and/or hair stylists. You'll know who I'm talking about.

• Whoopi Goldberg had to take the ridiculousness one step further and call Michael Vick a "wonderful person." Not even the NAACP thinks that's true. [Jossip]

Benny Medina, the manager-to-the-stars who used to appear on America's Next Top Model with a fanfare that suggested he was a major celebrity, has probably made his last CW cameo. Apparently, he's a major diva — who would have guessed — and there can only be on star on America's Next Top Model (and it ain't Benny Medina or the winning contestant).

According to one exec at TelePictures, which syndicates her talk show, she had complained about his suggestions and demands.

"His perk list is bigger than hers," said the source. "Everything from private jets and votive candles that the staff has to light before he gets to the set. He forgot who the star was."

A TelePictures rep argued: "We have a good relationship with Benny, and we appreciate his contributions to the show. He will continue as an executive consultant on the show."

Though Medina had a bitter legal breakup with former client Jennifer Lopez, a Tyra pal insists: "This one is pretty amicable."

Votive candles? When the manager's diva demands trump the actual diva's diva demands, things are getting out of control. Jennifer Lopez probably laughed and called her lawyer the second he told her to send a private jet for him.

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony's film, El Cantante, could conceivably have gone the way of Gigli in it's opening weekend. And looking at the box office returns — $3.2 — million, it seems that way, until you consider the fact that it was only in a handful of theaters. If you go by per theater gross, it actually came in 4th. So, it is not necessarily a curse for Jennifer Lopez to be in a movie with her man. Even if it was, I don't think it would stop her.

To coincide with the upcoming release of their movie, El Cantante, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony announced they will go on a joint tour together this fall. It will be J Lo's first live tour. Hmmm. Wonder why?

Anyway, my guess is that Marc will be handling the heavy vocal responsibility during the show, which will feature both separate sets and duets. The good news is that some of the proceeds will go toward combating child obesity in the Latino community. As for El Cantante, which the couple premiered in Puerto Rico last night, did J Lo learn nothing from Gigli? Significant others and movies don't mix!

Jennifer Lopez might have run into the mother of her old flame at Monkey Bar in NYC last night, but I'm sure all were distracted by the diamonds in Lorraine Schwartz's new Monkey Collection. Well, the diamonds and the monkeys. An eclectic group of people came out to support the jewelry launch, from DJ Clue to Tina Knowles. Check out more pics after the jump.

The annual Costume Institute gala was held in NYC last night, and many of our brightest stars came out, although I'm not sure why some were invited. I've been missing the glamorous, evening gown version of Jennifer Hudson since awards season ended, so I'm thrilled to see her in formal mode.
