In Pursuit of Something

In Pursuit of Happyness premiered in Los Angeles last night. TomKat and JLo (Looking like an extra from Big Love) plus Gremlin all showed up.

DON readers Ginger & Penny were lucky enough to attend. Here's Ginger's story:

"So the premiere was held at the Mann theater in Westwood. So on the way in I saw an actress who's name I forget... she's young, black, very pretty Marcelle Bou- something? I'm sorry I don't remember. Anyway, she was super pretty. Then I saw Sinbad and tried to get Penny to say hi but she refused. So then we had to go to our seats and we heard people saying that TomKat, JLo and Marc were there... we watched the movie... I thought it was really good but Penny thought the beginning was slow. The end made me cry, You pretty much know what's going to happen from the previews and since it's a true story. The real Chris Gardner was there too.

Okay, so after it was over Penny went to the restroom and I tried to leave and got stuck in the crowd which pushed me right over to where Will Smith and his son Jayden were exiting. The thing is, I could only really see all of the star's heads so I don't even know what they were wearing. Will was very gracious and nice. His son is so adorable. He had his hair in little puffs on the top of his head and seemed tired (the movie started almost an hour late!). Then Tom and Katie came out and were talking to them. Tom is really short. Katie looked very pretty but seemed so much older than she really is. I heard someone say that they actually looked really cute together. So then JLo and Marc came out. I could not believe how little Marc Anthony is! He's super short and REALLY skinny! He really looks like a skeleton. And JLo is a lot shorter than I realized as well. She looked pretty (again, all I saw was her face).

I finally made it out of the lobby and I nearly ran into Jada Pinkett Smith. She looked amazing in a long, strapless gown and she was asking everyone what they thought of the film. At the after party I was standing behind Cuba Gooding Jr. at the bar and he was in all white and posed for pics. It was a fun night! I didn't see any of the stars at the after party- I don't know if they showed up. Love ya!"

Thanks for the inside scoop! DON loves ya back!
