It looks like Kristen Bell is still enjoying her engagement to Dax Shepard.

At last night's Loft fall preview party at Chateau Marmont, the actress admitted she's done zero wedding planning.

"Not as of yet!" she told us when asked if she's prepped at all for her walk down the aisle.

Kristen obviously isn't one of those girls who's been dreaming of marriage since she was a little girl...

The actress says she has no idea what kind of wedding she wants.

(Either that, or she's really good at keeping tight-lipped about her nuptials.)

She did spill about some of her summer travel plans, though. Kristen said she's heading to Cancun today—but not for a bachelorette party.

"It's actually for a press conference of all things!" she laughed. "I have to go...it's for work."

Lucky girl. As for her Fourth of July plans, it sounds like she may be spending that with her fiancй.

"I think I'm going to Oregon to do some hiking," she said. "That should be fun."

We could totally see this low-key twosome tying the knot in some outdoorsy ceremony out in the country, couldn't you?

We're keeping an eye on you two!

Kristen Bell is in negotiations to join Drew Barrymore and John Krasinski in "Whales," a Working Title project for Universal.

Set in Cold War-era 1988, "Whales" tells the true story of a small-town news reporter (Krasinski) and a Greenpeace volunteer (Barrymore) who enlist the help of rival superpowers to save three majestic gray whales trapped under the ice of the Arctic Circle.

Bell will play a reporter from Los Angeles aiming for the big time who thinks her greatest assets are her looks.

Ken Kwapis is attached to direct "Whales," which was formerly known as "Everybody Loves Whales." It is based on the nonfiction book "Freeing the Whales: How the Media Created the World's Greatest Non-Event" by Tom Rose.

Working Title's Tim Bevan, Eric Fellner and Liza Chasin are producing with Anonymous Content's Steve Golin and Michael Sugar.

Universal vp production Erik Baiers is overseeing for the studio.

Bell is coming off of a starring gig in "When in Rome" and did a guest stint on the Starz comedy "Party Down." She next appears in Disney's September comedy "You Again" with Sigourney Weaver and Betty White and Screen Gems' November musical drama "Burlesque," with Christina Aguilera and Cher.

Bell is repped by CAA and Brookside Artists Management.

If you thought you glimpsed actress Kristen Bell around the Alamo City not too long ago, your eyes weren't deceiving you.
In fact, expect the fetching "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and "Veronica Mars" star to stop by San Antonio a lot more — whenever her film schedule allows.

Bell's dad recently moved here, you see. He's Tom Bell, WOAI-TV's relatively new news director. I met him at the station late last week. And before getting down to brass newsroom tacks and hearing his ideas for lifting the NBC affiliate out of its ratings funk, we engaged in fun chit-chat about Kristen: her career, playful sense of humor and fiancй Dax Shepard ("Parenthood").

For starters, Bell calls his daughter Annie, not Kristen. Though she was born Kristen, he explained, she decided at a young age that she didn't like it. She wanted to go by "Smurfette." However, she ended up going by her middle name — Annie — into high school. As for her S.A. visit early in spring, Bell took her for a walk along the river, and grabbed breakfast at Cristan's, before showing her his home-in-progress in Fair Oaks Ranch. They then headed Austin's way, where Shepard was showing a film at South by Southwest.

At the actor's suggestion, the trio stopped at The Salt Lick in Driftwood, a popular barbecue restaurant. Kristen, a devoted vegetarian, found very little to eat. To illustrate, she took a photo of her plate — half-eaten coleslaw, a piece of bread, a couple of pats of butter — and sent it to her Twitter page. It inspired lots of hilarity: "Last time I looked, it had been viewed 20,000 times," Bell said.

He especially delighted over how she showed him her gorgeous $100,000 engagement ring in online postings. "First, she showed how it looked on her finger, then on her toe, then, shortly after that, on her dog's paw."

What's next for the actress, who grew up in Michigan before heading to New York and L.A.? Two movies, "You Again," a comedy with Betty White, and "Burlesque," a musical with Cher and Christina Aguilera that utilizes Kristen's vocal talents.

Hi readers! It's Andrea, the owner of VMUK here. Just a quick note to apologise for the lack of updates on the site recently. Sadly, I've had no internet connection for over a month which has caused much disruption. It's now back and I've spent all day updating the gallery which has tons of new pictures of Kristen Bell, Amanda Seyfried, Krysten Ritter and Lisa Rinna! By the way, it's nice to see Amanda and Dominic back together, whether it's just as friends or more. They are so cute together and I hope it works out. My opinion of any guy who doesn't love Amanda is that his cheese has clearly slipped off his cracker. ;-)

Huge thanks to Carrie for holding the fort despite being away on a business trip and then away on holiday! Now that's commitment! Her news and gallery updates were invaluable. Carrie, thank you so much! You are a legend and I love ya! :)

Now on to updating the television schedule for the next fortnight...

Love to you all.
Andrea
xoxo

There are some rumors circulating on the Internet which claim that Leonardo DiCaprio was insulted that Amanda Seyfried asked him to play her father in her new movie ‘Red Riding Hood.’

Amanda reportedly pissed off Leo by asking him to play her father in the movie.

Amanda is only 24-years old and looks about 30 and Leo is 36-years old and looks as if he is in his 20’s so we don’t understand how that would make any sense.

She said: "Unfortunately he's not in it. I asked him if he would play my dad but he got insulted! He said, 'I don't do male leads in love stories any more'. And I said, 'I wasn't talking about the male leads; I was talking about my dad. You're what, 35? Age yourself up a bit!' "
