We don’t know about you, but the Celebuzz crew is teeming with anticipation to see this year’s fashion at the 2012 Golden Globes. Luckily for us, we had a chance to catch up with fashionistas Kelly Osbourne and Camilla Belle at last night’s Art of Elysium gala to dish about our fave award show dresses.

Osbourne not only told us about her favorite Golden Globes frock of all time, but she also gushed about her new Zac Posen gown for tonight’s festivities. 

”It just came off the runway,” she said giddily. “I couldn’t believe that it fit me. I’m so excited!”

The Fashion Police host also dished about her ever-changing hair. 

“It’s been four colors this week! I dye it all the time because no matter what I do, someone in the public eye has it,” Kelly jokingly quipped. ”It’s really superficial and really stupid. I like playing with it.”

Meanwhile, Camille Belle was also on hand to provide some fashion predictions for this year’s Golden Globes. Sporting a beautiful Carolina Herrera gown, the Push actress told us what she’d like to see on the red carpet.

“I just hope people are brave and they wear daring things: color, different shapes, different types of dress — lots of things to see.”

We’re with you on that one, sister! Check out our full interview with Camilla below!

Also, Great Gatsby starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Macguire will surely show a slew of Flapper fashions that are sure to make a comeback. Check out the boys on set of the highly anticipated film.

As she soaked up the warm weather in Argentina, Jennifer Lopez couldn’t help but show off her rocking figure with a  midriff top.

The American Idol judge topped off her belly-baring blouse with olive cargo pants and tan sunglasses. J.Lo was in Buenos Aires scouting for music and dance talent for Q’Viva- The Chosen!, a reality show she started with ex-hubby, Marc Anthony. The show will focus on finding the best undiscovered talent all over the continent and makes its debut in 2012.

Despite the chiller temps around the country, it seems like celebs are embracing the bare midriff trend. J.Lo previously wore another midriff top at L.A. engagement, while stars like Rihanna, Jessica Biel, Nicole Richie and Camilla Belle have also been spotted rocking the revealing look at major red carpet parties and events.

How has this fashion trend fared among today’s hottest starlets? Would you sport the look? Play fashion critic and sound off in the comments!

All week, Camilla has been stepping out for fashion shows and events. She make quite a splash when she stepped out at the Missoni for Target launch party in NYC, wearing a colorful printed dress.

We love a good colorful, printed dress, but does anyone else feel like this may have missed the mark?

Camilla Belle stepped out at the Missoni for Target launch party in NYC on Wednesday night, and was wearing this little number.

Not only is the print a little questionable, but it’s doing absolutely nothing for her figure.

After strutting down the red carpet in a daring ruffled bandeau top Camilla Belle has made a fashion-180 with a hip new look.

The From Prada to Nada star was spotted wearing a ruffled white blouse and black a-line skirt while grabbing lunch in Beverly Hills on Wednesday, January 19.

While the outfit was perfectly cute what really stood out was Camille’s ultra-hip cat eye tortoise shell sunglasses. Not only were the small-ish frames oh-so-current they also flattered her pretty face.

Camilla Belle might not be dating Jake Gyllenhaal, contrary to popular rumor, but she is out and about and making the scene.

The From Prada to Nada actress (and former Joe Jonas flame) was spotted on the streets of Beverly Hills on Wednesday running errands, and though she was more demurely dressed than the last time we saw her, the 24-year-old beauty was still stunning enough to turn heads.

Is Jake Gyllenhaal getting chummy with Taylor Swift‘s frenemy, Camilla Belle? Relax TSwift fans, there is nothing romantic going on between the two.

Jake, 30, was spotted hanging out with Camilla, 24, at the Art of Elysium “Heaven” Gala in Los Angeles on Saturday evening. While the meet-up may have raised eyebrows amongst some Taylor fans, Jake’s rep exclusively tells Celebuzz that the pair are “not dating.”

RadarOnline previously reported that the pair “hung out together the entire night” and were spotted “talking intimately.”

“Jake and Camilla were flirting all night,” a source told RadarOnline. ”And before he left, I saw him very affectionately touching her arm.”

Taylor fans were shocked to hear that Jake was reportedly getting cozy with Camilla since the 21-year-old singer has been feuding with the Disney singer for years.

Camilla began dating Joe Jonas in 2008 shortly after the Jonas Brothers frontman dumped Taylor over the phone. Taylor allegedly wrote “Better Than Revenge” about Camilla, which includes lyrics like “She’s an actress/Better known for the thing that she does on the mattress.” Yikes!

Listen to “Better Than Revenge” off of Taylor’s Speak Now album below.

Jake and Taylor announced their break-up earlier this month. The pair had reportedly been dating for three months before calling things off.

You always knew Camilla Belle was model-gorgeous; she proved it when she hit the runway for designer Alberta Ferretti in Florence on Tuesday.

Is Camilla Belle dating a new fella?

The Disney star was spotted stepping out with a handsome mystery man when she visited a Gap store in Los Angeles on Wednesday. Is this another boyfriend for the stunning brunette or is he just a friend? Considering that Camilla has dated a slew of good-looking men (including Joe Jonas and Robert Pattinson) it wouldn’t be surprising if she moved on with her handsome shopping partner.

Do you think Camilla is dating this mystery man? Check out all the photos and share your thoughts in the comments.

Camilla Belle and Alexa Vega are two sisters in trouble in their newest flick, From Prada to Nada.

In the new movie, Camilla and Alexa play spoiled siblings who are suddenly thrust into poverty when their wealthy father dies and leaves them penniless. The college-aged girls are forced to move with their estranged aunt (played by Adriana Barraza) in East LA.

The movie is a Mexican American-themed take on Jane Austen‘s famous novel, Sense and Sensibility. Watch the trailer below.

You may remember Alexa–who plays hard-partying Mary in the film–from Spy Kids. Camilla has famously hooked up with a group of hot teen idols, including Joe Jonas and Robert Pattinson. Maybe now young audiences will be able to see Camilla for her acting talents instead of just her roster of bold-faced boyfriends.

The new film also stars Wilmer Valderrama and Nicholas D’Agosto.

From Prada to Nada will hit theaters in January of 2011.

Now that things are starting to heat up between Ashley Greene and Joe Jonas it’s time to see how Ashley compares to Joe’s past girlfriends. 

According to People, Joe is “head over heels” for the Twilight beauty. “He thinks she is down-to-earth and absolutely beautiful,” a source tells the magazine, “He hasn’t been this into a girl in a long time.”

While the couple haven’t been dating for too long, Joe has already shown signs of commitment: Ashley joined him while he was on tour this summer and the pair have been photographed holding hands and kissing in public.

Joe is famous for being something of a ladies’ man. Joe has dated a bevy of beautiful young stars in the past, including Camilla Belle, Taylor Swift and Demi Lovato. Joe even sang a duet with former girlfriend Demi while the two were rumored to be dating. Watch the video for their duet, “Make a Wave,” below.

Ashley definitely shares some traits with Joe’s past loves. Like Camilla and Demi, Ashley is a beautiful brunette actress. Meanwhile, 23-year-old Ashley and 24-year-old Camilla are both several years older than Joe.

The one difference between Ashley and the other girls? Joe was spotted without his purity ring once things started heating up between him and Ashley. Does this mean that Ashley and Joe are getting serious?

When it comes to ending things, Joe’s previous girlfriends have had no qualms in describing his less-than-tacful methods of breaking up. Taylor famously announced that Joe broke up with her over a 27-second phone call and Demi exclusively told Celebuzz that she was “hurt” by the break-up.

Luckily for Ashley, she doesn’t need to worry about breaking up with Joe anytime soon (or at all, if things are really getting serious). According to People, Ashley took Joe to meet her parents in Florida last week. Sounds like things are getting pretty serious!

Do you think Joe and Ashley will last longer than his previous girlfriends? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

While Joe Jonas has insisted in the past that he isn’t a heartbreaker, it seems like he either has really bad luck with relationships or just loves dating some of young Hollywood’s hottest startlets.

There was country star Taylor Swift, who he famously dumped with a 27-second phone call. Then along came actress Camilla Belle, who actually crushed poor Joe’s heart (as thousands of fans witnessed when the 20-year-old JoBro broke down in tears on stage in concert). And those are just two of Joe’s famous exes.

Take a look at the photographic history of Joe’s famous gal pals and decide for yourself: Is Joe Jonas just stringing these girls along or is he just looking for his equally-famous soulmate?

Joe Jonas may have earned a bit of a reputation for being a heartbreaker, but the handsome teen idol insists that he isn’t the one doing the heartbreaking.

The 20-year-old Disney star has had relationships with a string of famous ladies including Camilla Belle, Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift, the latter of which announced to the world on Ellen that Joe had dumped her with a 27-second phone call. However, Joe insists that he isn’t the love-crushing playboy type in an interview with The Toronto Star:

I know there’s people out there who say I’ve been breaking hearts, but listen to our songs. They speak the truth. If hearts have been broken, they’re usually ours. What happens in our relationships winds up in our songs and haters will be haters.

This isn’t the first time that Joe has defended himself against claims by ex-girlfriends: Following his split from Taylor in 2008, the singer insisted that he wasn’t a cheater and that the relationship had issues:

I never cheated on a girlfriend. It might make someone feel better to assume or imply I have been unfaithful but it is simply not true. Maybe there were reasons for a breakup. Maybe the heart moved on. Perhaps feelings changed. I am truly saddened that anything would potentially cause [my fans] to think less of me.

Joe’s most recent relationship with former BFF Demi ended abruptly earlier this year. Following the split, Demi allegedly made a dig at Joe during a concert in South America, telling him to “go back to playing tambourine.” The two are planning on touring together for the Jonas Brothers and Camp Rock 2 summer tour in August.

In recent weeks, Joe has reportedly been spotted going out on dates with Twilight actress Ashley Greene.

Quite a few celebrities made an appearance on the red carpet of the Tod’s Boutique grand opening last night and we must say, it was full of fashion wonderment. As usual, we couldn’t resist awarding a fashion FAIL and FTW of the night. We think Camilla Belle stole the show in her Jason Wu, patterned dress. However, it pains us to send Gwen Stefani to the FAIL department yet again, but a dress made of aluminum foil paired with ghost legs and cage sandals just isn’t jiving.

Camilla Belle was at the Metropolitan Opera Gala premiere of Armida last night looking like a small gift of Yves Saint Laurent pretty in her nude gown, complete with an appropriate sized bow (we’re looking at you, oversized bow wearers). If a paper shredder tried to mate with our dress this is exactly what we would hope for after all is said and done.
