It takes a village! Valerie Bertinelli, Rachael Ray and a who's-who list of celebrities helped transform the Long Beach Convention Center exhibit hall into a 160,000 square foot interactive women's village for the first annual Night at The Village -- and ET was there to talk the influential ladies!
TIM RUSSERT's friends, family and colleagues gathered at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday to honor the late newsman. Now, watch the heartfelt eulogies delivered by Russert's son, LUKE, and California first lady MARIA SHRIVER.
Raising a partially filled glass of water, Luke said: "For Tim Russert, his glass was always half-full. … In my 22 years, I've never met anybody filled with so much optimism. … My dad was a force of nature, and now his own cycle in nature is complete. … I love you, Dad."
It wasn't just OPRAH WINFREY, STEVIE WONDER and CAROLINE KENNEDY who joined Democratic Presidential Candidate BARACK OBAMA's wife MICHELLE onstage at a rally in Los Angeles on Sunday, but also former news anchor MARIA SHRIVER, the wife of California's Republican Governor.
Shriver, whose husband, 'Terminator' star ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, has been governor of California since 2003 and recently endorsed JOHN McCAIN for the Republican presidential nomination, expressed her support for Obama publicly at the event held at UCLA, saying that everyone should "follow their own truth" in deciding who to vote for. She also pointed out that California often sets an example for the rest of the nation, saying, "so goes California, so goes the nation."
For the first time ever, California Governor ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER and first lady MARIA SHRIVER allow cameras inside the Governor's mansion for a rare interview together -- and our KEVIN FRAZIER scored it!
'Terminator' turned California governor ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER underwent surgery Tuesday to repair a broken bone in his right leg.
The 59-year-old Governator broke his leg in a skiing accident on Saturday, near his vacation home in Sun Valley, Idaho. He is expected to remain in the hospital for three days, but he'll be on crutches, and his recuperation will likely last eight weeks.
BARBARA WALTERS' "Heaven: Where Is It? How Do We Get There?" special was such a hit last year, ABC is re-broadcasting the two-hour special, beginning at 9 p.m. tonight. In it, Walters speaks with everyone from His Holiness the DALAI LAMA to a failed suicide bomber, from an evangelical leader to atheists, Muslim scholars and Jewish rabbis, as well as RICHARD GERE, MARIA SHRIVER, MITCH ALBOM and Rabbi JACKIE MASON.
"Truthfully, I am more excited about this program than any other program I have done," Walters told ET. "To explore heaven. To realize that 90 percent of Americans believe there is a heaven and they are going to go there. Where is it? What do you do there? What is the difference in the different religions? It is enlightening, it is informative, it is even entertaining sometimes, and it is even scary."
The almighty OPRAH celebrated her 20th season of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" this year and our own JANN CARL went to Chicago to chat with Oprah about her struggles with her weight, what in the tabloids made her cry and a story she has never told anybody else on television -- before now.
"I used to read the tabloids and cry," the talk-show queen admits to Jann. "I stopped reading them about two years ago. The fat stuff went on forever. Everybody [who is covered in the tabloids] gets a theme and mine is I was fat and not married ... somebody else's is too thin, too thin, too thin. Mine is can't get married and too fat, too fat, too fat."
From golden crowns to ancient coffins, historical treasures found their way to Hollywood and stars like MARIA SHRIVER and DREW BARRYMORE showed their support for the KING TUT Exhibition, opening today at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. "I just think King Tut's cool, I want to go learn about him and check him out," Drew revealed.
'The Mummy' star BRENDAN FRASER also headed to the star-studded premiere party for the exhibition, titled "Tutankhamun And The Golden Age of The Pharaohs."I've always wanted to see this exhibit," he explained, "and the closest I've ever got was the movies!"
