We're all about equal time here on Jaunted, so here's a beach shot for the ladies: Owen Wilson relaxes on a Malibu beach before he moves to the cold, uninviting state of... Hawaii? Wait, what?
It's true! Apparently deciding that 300 days of good weather aren't enough, Wilson decided to up the ante and buy a house in Maui near celeb pal Woody Harrelson whom he went to visit earlier this month. Vacation all year long!
And meanwhile back in the real world, Labor Day is the last hurrah for weekenders everywhere. Harrumph, maybe we should move to Maui: Is there solar-powered WiFi?
A slightly disheveled Owen Wilson minded his hats as he waited to go through the metal detector at LAX this weekend. To his credit, it's hard to pack straw hats without crushing them!
Wilson has been in Florida most of the summer shooting the film adaptation of the popular dog-lover memoir "Marley and Me" with Jennifer Aniston; he's also set to reprise his role as a laid-back cowboy in "Night of the Museum 2."
Wilson the Blonder has been laying low since last year's suicide attempt, but we're eagerly awaiting his comeback.
This past Friday night we hit up a favorite spot on Santa Monica's Montana Avenue, an Italian restaurant called Locanda Portofino. The small restaurant serves a fusion of Northern and Southern Italian cuisine from Chef Florestano Caracciolo di Nicastro. It's extremely and unnecessarily expensive, especially the wine list. (We'd tell you to bring your own bottle but with a $40 corking fee, you might as well just order one.)
It was all completely worth it, though, as we had to squeeze by Owen Wilson to enter the restaurant. He was too busy getting digits from an attractive pin-thin brunette to move out of our way of course. Also spotted that same night was Bridget Moynihan, best known at Patriots QB Tom Brady's baby momma. She was dining with her mom and dad and we are guessing some siblings. A very good-looking family.
As for the food, this was our second time there and we can highly recommend the pasta dishes. Unfortunately, the chicken and other meat dishes fall short. Locanda Portofino's open for dinner every night and has lunch Tuesday through Saturday.
Owen Wilson frolicked on a beach in Maui for his 39th birthday... or should we say, he pulled a Matthew McConaughey? Matt replaced Owen in the movie he was supposed to shoot for Ben Stiller in Hawaii in September, as we reported, but Owen got there eventually and played catch on the beach with brother Luke.
Also present to work on her tan was Wilson the elder's girlfriend, Le Call. She's an American supermodel who once appeared in New York magazine's "Look Book" with a bike celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito gave her. Did Owen steal her away with a Vespa?
There's nothing quite like catching someone the morning after...Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson were spotted having a friendly morning breakfast earlier this week at A Votre Sante in Brentwood.
Popular amongst the veggie crowd, A Votre Sante features dishes like a hummus quesadilla, tofu mushroom napoleans, and organic nachos. Wash it down with organic coffee and fresh juices. Food is supposedly served on "huge plates" and super-affordable (the most expensive main dish is $14).
The Brentwood location, one of a handful in LA, is particularly tight and cozy, which makes us wonder if Kate and Owen were really looking to go undercover.
