Greeted by a sunny morning, Julia Roberts and Javier Bardem continued to film Eat, Pray, Love on location in the mountain town of Ubud, Bali today (November 6).
The two Oscar-winning actors looked to be getting dirty as they were on some kind of hike before arriving on set to begin production of the highly-anticipated film adaptation of the 2006 memoir by American author and memoirist Elizabeth Gilbert.
Meanwhile, Julia’s production company Red Om Films has acquired screen rights to the nonfiction book In the Neighborhood by Peter Lovenheim.
In the book, set to be published early next year, the author makes an effort to get to know his neighbours better by asking if he can come to their homes for sleepovers. His hope is to find something more than the feeling of strangers living with strangers in modern suburbia.

Joined by a few pals and patrons,
Colin Farrell was spotted eating lunch in Sevilla, Spain this afternoon (November 6).
The 33-year-old actor is in town for tonight’s premiere of his new film Triage during the Sevilla Film Festival.
Meanwhile, a sex tape showing Colin having sex with Playboy model Nicole Narain has allegedly been delivered to the family of his girlfriend and baby mama Alicja Bachleda.
The Irish hunk, who recently had son Henry with the former model, apparently won a court injunction to stop the tape being sold, distributed or displayed in 2005.
“Colin hoped he’d seen the last of the tape,” says a pal of the actor’s. “Him and Alicja are desperate to find out who sent it.”
He adds: “Alicja’s parents in Poland met Colin and liked him a lot. But they are Catholic and very old fashioned.”

Lindsay Lohan’s trip to Morroco has come to an end.
Flashing photogs a quick smile, the 23-year-old starlet was spotted landing in London yesterday (November 5)swiftly before she jumped onto another flight headed to L.A.
Meanwhile, Lindsay’s unfit father Michael Lohan has released another audio tape, accusing his daughter of lying and wasting her God-given talent.
In response to Lindsay’s claims that he used to threaten to kill his then-wife Dina, Michael says: “That’s a lie. I guess Lindsay is on more drugs than I thought to say something like that … No wonder why God is taking her entire career away from her. Because she’s forsaken everything. He’s given her and she’s done nothing but misuse all the gifts she’s given.”
What’s more? According to a newly release recording (said to be taped in September 2008), Lindsay’s mom can be heard talking about her struggles to get their daughter to go to rehab. “She’d like, punch me in the face, kick me out of the car … like you don’t know the sh*t I went through,” she says.
So, why did Michael leak the tapes? He claims it’s meant to pressure Lindsay into seeking treatment for addiction. For her part, Lindsay’s legal team are weighing their options before deciding to take any action.

In the upcoming issue of
Elle magazine,
Sarah Jessica Parker dismisses rumours of catfighting and testy salary negotiations floating around about her and her
Sex and the City co-stars — particularly
Kim Cattrall.
“I don’t think anybody wants to believe that I love Kim,” she says. “I adore her. I wouldn’t have done (Sex and the City 2) without her. Didn’t and wouldn’t.”
SJP also opens up about her and hubby Matthew Broderick’s decision to use a surrogate for their infant twins, Marion and Tabitha, who were born in June and join older brother James, 7.
“I knew there would be lots of opinions about, ‘Well, why didn’t you adopt? Why didn’t you do this? Why didn’t you do that?’ and the truth of the matter is, it wasn’t one or the other for us. We had explored, and continue to explore all options, and this one just happened first. This isn’t the period at the end of the sentence.”
For now, motherhood the second time around seems to be suiting her just well. “I love the smell of diapers; I even like when they’re wet and you smell them all warm liked a baked good. I love the smell of Balmex. Love it.”

Looks like
Britney Spears was in a rush as she left the Perth Hyatt Hotel in Australia today (Novemeber 6).
After quickly downing a small breakfast, the 27-year-old pop princess was spotted with tea cup in hand as she waved to photogs while en route to her first concert on her Australian tour.
Meanwhile, it appears that Britney’s tour has run into controversy — even before it even began!
Officials from the New South Wales Minister for Fair Trading are suggesting concert goers should be told if the pop icon would be miming her songs.
Australians would not tolerate a “Mickey Mouse performance”, Virginia Judge tells Sydney’s Daily Telegraph in reference to Britney’s past as one of Disney’s Mouseketeer personalities.
“Let’s be clear — live means live,” she says. “If you are spending up to 200 dollars (182 US), I think you deserve better than a film clip.”

ABC News has released another video preview from its exclusive interview with Rihanna, set to air tonight on 20/20 at 10 p.m. ET.
In this five-minute segment, the pop superstar goes into detail about the night ex-boyfriend Chris Brown attacked her inside their car following a pre-Grammys party in February. She describes Chris as “clearly blacked out” during the assault, in which he punched, shoved and bit her.
“He had … no soul in his eyes. Just blank. …There was no person when I looked at him,” an emotional Rihanna told Diane Sawyer. She went on to say that she doesn’t hate him and wishes him the best in his life and career.
