Nina's coming to town

 

What's left for a rabid Project Runway fan to do after drooling over those candy dresses at Hershey's Chicago, re-watching TiVoed episodes and thumbing through our photo gallery of gleeful winner Christian Siriano? Well, meet Nina Garcia, of course. The venerable P.R. judge and Elle magazine fashion director is in town to dish style tips after an Anne Klein fashion show at Macy's State Street this Thursday. There's sure to be a crowd, so we suggest you jet out of work a bit early if you want a primo view of both the show and Ms. Garcia herself.

Box office blog: 'Horton' hears a victory

 

The nearly $36 million debut for "10,000 BC" doesn't look so mammoth anymore. "Horton Hears a Who!" took in $45.1 million over the weekend to top the box office and reign as the biggest opening so far this year. ("Cloverfield was the previous champ, opening with $40.1 million.) It's not surprising that audiences showed up for the just-OK Dr. Seuss adaptation, but its competition wasn't exactly fierce. "10,000" fell to second with $16.4 million, the surprisingly solid martial arts flick "Never Back Down" debuted at No. 3 with only $8.61 million and "Doomsday" landed at seventh with just $4.7 million. Did voice work by Jim Carrey, Steve Carell and Seth Rogen draw you to "Horton," or does it still seem like kids' stuff? Did you check out "Never Back Down" or just stay home and watch "Fight Club"?
