Hugh Hefner's oldest son was arrested on Sunday night for allegedly attacking the 2011 Playmate of the Year and his girlfriend, Claire Sinclair, according to TMZ.com.

Sources told the entertainment website that Marston Hefner punched and kicked Sinclair, leaving her with bruises and red marks. Cops showed up after Sinclair called family members, who called 911.

Hefner denies that he ever hit her. He was released on $20,000 bail a few hours after his arrest, according to The New York Post.

The 20-year-old Playmate has been dating Marston on and off since August 2010, TMZ reported.

Sinclair earned the legendary 52nd Playmate of the Year title at just 19. Hugh Hefner said that her style reminded him of Bettie Page, the famous 1950s pinup model, Fox News reported.

Robert Redford: 24 Hours to Stop the Pipeline - Be the Solution

Every once in a while an opportunity comes along for all of us to be the solution. This is one of those times. We're collecting a half million messages to stop the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline in the next 24 hours.

This dirty, dangerous tar sands pipeline is not in the national interest. It's that simple. And the United States Senate, officials of both parties, need to hear that message loud and clear and fast because some of them are threatening to push a bill as soon as Tuesday, to approve it.

Go to www.stoptar.org and send a message. Then turn up the volume and send it to everyone you know....tweet it, Facebook it, blog it...urging everyone you know to become part of the solution in the next 24 hours. Go to www.stoptar.org, please, and send a message.

This U.S. Senate has to stop looking towards the past and move into the new century. If only some of these politicians showed the same level of passion for creating new markets around cleaner forms of energy, as they're showing for crippling a sitting president with a dirty, potentially highly dangerous, old-school Canadian tar sands pipeline.

This struggle is about every parent's fears for our children's future. And this struggle is about every young person's hope for their immediate future. It should be every parent's worst nightmare that these people we sent to Washington to lead us into the future, will continue to embrace the flawed philosophical case for doing nothing.

This do nothing option is the same flawed recommendation that economists made in the 1960's and 1970's to the automobile industry. Imagine something like seat belts being seen as the jobs killer of that day. We should not make the same mistake around energy.

Be the solution. Send a message! Go to www.stoptar.org.

Amanda Seyfried 'Grateful' Sarah Jessica Parker Replaced Demi Moore In 'Lovelace'

After Demi Moore had to drop out of "Lovelace" last month, there were many rumors about who would replace her as Gloria Steinem in the biopic about porn star Linda Lovelace. The production finally settled on Sarah Jessica Parker, who agreed to cameo in the film following a personal plea from star Amanda Seyfried.

"One day, I was like, 'Listen, what can I do? You keep throwing around names, but who do we really want?'" Seyfried told Moviefone while promoting her new film, "Gone," which hits theaters on Feb. 24. "They were like, 'Sarah Jessica Parker.' I was like 'Yes, please. Where is she? What is she doing?' So I called her agent, whom I've never met and asked, 'What can we do to get her involved? We have three days. We need her.' And I emailed her that day and she was on a plane three days later. And she was incredible. She's so good. I'm so grateful that she came in. I wish she'd been there for longer."

Despite her happiness that Parker was able to play the venerable Ms. magazine co-founder, Seyfried was saddened by Moore's departure.

"It was a really hard situation because Demi had worked really hard and she was so prepared and so ready and nobody expected her to not be able to do it -- she didn't either. I knew she wanted to do it, but she knew she had to take care of herself. It's hard when you're pulling for someone, but they can't do it and you have to substitute them. We needed Gloria Steinem in this movie, she was a huge part of Linda's life and such a huge icon."

Seyfried said that Parker is "amazing" in "Lovelace," which also features a cameo from James Franco as Hugh Hefner.

"He came, just in and out in one day. He's really good at embodying different people. He's certainly a character actor in my opinion. I remember him sitting in the trailer and just listening on the headphones to Hef talking. He's really good at mimicking things and it's really important when you come in for just one day and just whip it out. It's really impressive."

Whip it out?

"He didn't actually... oh wait, yes, Hef... no pun intended. There was some whipping," she laughed.

Check back to Moviefone next week for more from Seyfried on "Gone" and getting her father's approval for "Lovelace."

This weekend news of America's most passionate vocalist's untimely passing left millions devastated. Whitney Houston will be forever remembered for her talent and devotion to music. The Grammy Awards hosted a beautiful tribute to the legend, but our favorite dedication came from, of all places, Dubai.

Yes, Dubai tends to do things over the top, but the power of Houston's voice needs a pretty big visual component to match up. Watch the monumental fountain and light display synchronized to "I Will Always Love You."

Daniel Day-Lewis, eat your heart out? The first trailer for "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" has arrived (yes, this movie is actually happening), filled with grand speeches, old shots of Washington D.C. and our 16th President chopping down vampires with an axe.

Directed by Timur Bekmambetov ("Wanted"), the film follows Lincoln (Benjamin Walker) as he looks to navigate the country through a Civil War, where vampires in the South look to defeat the North, thus enslaving all of human existence. (Just as it's told in history text books!)

"Vampire Hunter," which is based on a book of the same name, stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Dominic Cooper and Anthony Mackie. It hits theaters June 22, 2012. And for a more balanced representation of Lincoln, you may want to look out for Steven Spielberg's biopic, starring Daniel Day-Lewis, which also opens sometime this year.

Republicans often decry Hollywood as a liberal town, and it's largely true: tinseltown often champions progressive issues, and give much more generously to Democratic candidates. But that doesn't mean there aren't celebrities who lean to the right, either.

There is a sizable contingent of stars who are registered Republicans and routinely campaign and support the GOP's causes. As President Obama begins to consolidate his entertainment industry support, with a series fundraisers in Hollywood coming up, some Republican celebrities are starting to throw their support to different candidates in the GOP primary.

Here are some of the most famous GOP endorsers; we'll add to the list as it grows.

Party Like Its 2010! Meryl Streep And Julia Roberts Team For 'August: Osage County'

Back in October of 2010, the Internet was abuzz with news that Meryl Streep and Julia Roberts would join forces to bring "August: Osage County" to the big screen. Better late than never! According to a press release from The Weinstein Company, Streep and Roberts will finally star in "August" when production begins this fall.

Based on the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play by Tracy Letts, "August: Osage County" focuses on an Oklahoma family that reunites after the mysterious death of the family patriarch. Streep is set to play Violet, the pill-addled matriarch of the Weston family, who constantly butts heads with her eldest daughter, Barbara (Roberts). John Wells (TV's "ER," "The Company Man") will direct.

"After seeing Meryl Streep's mesmerizing portrayal as Margaret Thatcher in 'The Iron Lady,' it has me even more excited and proud to co star with her," Roberts said in the press release.

The role of Violet won Deanna Dunagan a Tony Award, so should Streep not win an Oscar for "The Iron Lady," at least she has her 18th nomination sewn up.

Lil' Kim's Crazy Flight With Whitney Houston

When Andy Cohen asked Lil' Kim her fondest memory of Whitney Houston on "Watch What Happens Live" (Weeknights, 11 p.m. EST on Bravo), it at first sounded like she must not have had any fond memories of the late pop star. Why else would she tell a story about the time Houston dissed her on a plane?

Kim said that the two were traveling on the same flight to the Bahamas together, but obviously not traveling together. Kim invited Houston to join her and chat, but according to Kim, "She looked at me out the side of her eye and said, 'I'm not really a talker.'"

Then the story got a bit strange as Kim said she'd brought her dog with her on the plane, but then intimated that she'd put the dog in the overhead luggage compartment, which horrified and shocked Houston. But that was apparently the impetus for Houston to start talking to her, and apparently she did plenty of that.

"By the time that flight was over, I was like this," Kim said mimicking falling asleep with her head lolling forward. But Houston was apparently still going a mile a minute talking to her, even checking to make sure Kim was awake from time to time. A fond memory for Kim? It's certainly a unique and unusual memory.

"Watch What Happens Live" airs weeknights at 11 p.m. EST on Bravo.

Falklands Hero Brands Sean Penn An 'Idiot' Over Attack On Britain

Sean Penn has been branded an "idiot" by war veteran Simon Weston for his attack on Britain's claim to the Falkland Islands.

The Hollywood actor launched a tirade against British "colonialism" earlier this week as the row between Argentina and Britain over the sovereignty of the islands deepens.

Penn said the deployment of Prince William to the islands as a search and rescue pilot was "unthinkable" and that dialogue was the only way to solve the dispute.

But Weston, who fought and was injured in the 1982 war, told The Sun newspaper that Penn should keep his "gob shut".

"People give far to much credence to actors," he told The Sun. "Sean Penn is living, breathing proof of the fact that just because you are famous doesn't mean you know what you are talking about."

He added: "Penn is an idiot. It's bad for people to think you're a fool."

Weston, who is running to be a police commissioner in Wales, said the US actor should focus on issues closer to home before trying his hand at international relations.

"Hawaii is as American as a kebab but they claim it because they wanted a giant naval base there. Does Penn complain about that?" he said.

On Thursday it emerged that universities minister David Willets would visit the islands. While on Wednesday the Commons defence committee confirmed MPs would make the trip to the South Atlantic this year.

Penn made his comments on the dispute during a tour of the region in his role as Haitian ambassador-at-large, see pictures of his tour below:

Beverly vs. Sarah In The 'Top Chef: Texas' Culinary Olympics

The action shifted from Texas to Whistler, British Columbia as the "Top Chef: Texas" (Wed., 10 p.m. EST on Bravo) Final Four battled for a place in next week's Grand Finale in Vancouver.

Added to the immense pressures of getting their dishes right, the finalists also had the stress of competing in a culinary Olympiad, which saw Beverly and Sarah going head-to-head in a Winter Olympics biathlon.

That's right. The cheftestants had to cross-country ski and shoot at targets in order to obtain the ingredients they needed for the dish they had to cook at the end of the snowy ordeal.

Unlike Sarah, whose dad used to take her shooting at tin cans when she was a kid, a "really nervous" Beverly said that she'd never skied or fired a gun before.

"Top Chef" fans are used to cheftestants regularly throwing each other under the bus, but this was the first time anyone had fallen over on skis and tripped up their opponent.

Despite her lack of experience Beverly won the shooting competition and gained an extra ingredient, but Sarah was close behind.

The "Top Chef: Texas" Finale airs Wednesday, February 22 at 10 p.m. EST on Bravo.

Sexual Innuendos With Morena Baccarin On 'Late Late Show'

Morena Baccarin is a very beautiful woman, so of course Craig Ferguson was going to find sexual innuendos in as much of her words as he could during their chat on "The Late Late Show" (Weeknights, 12:37 a.m. EST on CBS). When he asked her about Valentine's Day, in quick succession she admitted that she "dropped the ball" and that when she woke up that morning "there was this nice little box next to the bed."

It was all she could do to get through her story. This was her first Valentine's Day as a married woman, and she felt bad when her husband gave her a beautiful necklace that morning. "Oh, we're doing gifts?" was her horrified thought.

It came back full circle at the end of the interview when she chose from Ferguson's traditional options the mouth organ. First of all, that phrase in itself sounds like a sexual innuendo, which is probably one of the main reasons Ferguson chooses to use it over more traditionally recognized terms. Nevertheless, by this point Baccarin just embraced the inherent innuendo and dove fully into it.

"I get to open a box and take out a mouth organ? Really?" she asked. And then for the grand finale, "How do I blow?"

But Ferguson is savvy and quick in this area. "Imagine it's Valentine's Day, you woke up and forgot to get a present, all right?" he retorted quickly.

Catch "The Late Late Show" weeknights at 12:37 a.m. EST on CBS.

US actor Sean Penn has been pictured wearing traditional Bolivian traditional dress during his tour of South America, where he has been speaking out against British "colonialism" of the Falkland Islands.

The Hollywood star wore the garb and a miner's hat during a meeting with Bolivia's president Evo Morales at the presidential palace in La Paz.

Earlier this week Penn made headlines when he attacked Britain's decision to deploy Prince William to the region as a search and rescue pilot.

"The world today cannot tolerate ridiculous demonstrations of colonialism. The way of dialogue is the only way to achieve a better solution for both nations," he said on Monday.

He was branded an "idiot" and a "fool" by Simon Weston, a British veteran of the Falklands war for wading into the dispute.

Penn made the comments as he toured South America in his role as Haitian ambassador-at-large.

Tyrie Falls Off A Log And Crushes Jasmine On 'The Challenge: Battle Of The Exes':

When a contestant on "The Challenge: Battle Of The Exes" (Wed., 10 p.m. EST on MTV) says "I'm always nervous of heights and water," it's a pretty safe bet that something bad is about to happen to them, and that water and/or heights will be involved.

So what could possibly go wrong when a nervous Jasmine and her ex, Tyrie, had to cling onto a log as it flew high in the air across water and then began to spin furiously?

Jasmine was unable to hold on: "My stomach is turning and I feel my hands just starting to come apart from each other and I'm a little scared." And that's when she fell off the log into the water.

As Jasmine started swimming to the bank, Tyrie lost his grip on the log and, as the others watched on in horror, he fell into the water, landing right on top of his much smaller ex.

Although it looked horrendous, Jasmine bobbed back up to the surface and the pair managed to complete the challenge. The clash did leave her a bit dazed and in possession of a killer headache though -- "I need a really big Advil right now," she joked.

"The Challenge: Battle Of The Exes" airs Wednesdays at 10 p.m. EST on MTV.

Jonah Hill Talks Oscar Nom With Oprah

Since the cancellation of "The Oprah Winfrey Show," the one-time queen of daytime has vowed that she will get out of the studio and meet and talk with people out in the world. So she sat down with first-time Oscar nominee Jonah Hill at a restaurant, where they shared a casual meal and he shared his feelings about his nomination for his work in "Moneyball."

Hill, a comedic actor, certainly never expected his name to ever be anywhere near the Academy Awards, but he said it became more an more impossible to refuse to think about it. "Then it starts to happen," he said. "Like the SAG Awards get announced, and then the Golden Globes get announced and then you start to really go like, Okay."

He said that first and foremost, getting an award is not the reason that an actor takes on a role, nor is it an inspiration for how they manage their performance. And then there's just the emotional roller coast an actor can put themselves through thinking about the highest honor the industry can bestow upon him or her.

"You don't really think about it, because you don't want to get your head in that space of being disappointed or happy if it does or doesn't work out," he said. For now, he was all smiles as he paid for Oprah Winfrey's meal. He even went so far as to declare that experience "most exciting moment of my life."

See if a new moment takes that coveted sport when "The 2012 Academy Awards" airs Sunday February 26 at 8:30 p.m. EST on ABC.
