Halle Berry was spotted at Pane Vino restaurant in Los Angeles earlier today (April 27).

The 44-year-old opted for a cute and comfortable outfit while dining out, wearing a long, flowing, pink and black dress, gray handbag and a pair of flip-flops.

Meanwhile, Aretha Franklin has just spoken out about Halle’s refusal to play her in an upcoming biopic because, as she cited, she cannot match the Queen of Soul’s voice while telling USA Today that she “never expected [Berry] to sing,” adding, “It was more about her likeness, and the fact that she has [acting] experience.”

With Berry out of the running, Jennifer Hudson and Fantasia Barrino are now rumored to be top contenders for the part.

Prince William and Kate Middleton were spotted leaving London’s Westminster Abbey after their final rehearsal on Wednesday night (April 27).

The soon-to-be married couple were driven off by a chauffeured vehicle while joined by wedding party members including William’s brother, Prince Harry, as well as Kate’s sister, Pippa, brother, James, and parents, Michael and Carol.

Prior to the Westminster Abbey run-through, Kate busily ran errands as she readies for her glorious walk down the aisle on Friday, April 29th – making a stop at the Clarence House before around 4PM before emerging with a large cardboard box.

Of the mood, a Clarence House insider told Us magazine, “Everyone’s happy. The atmosphere is really great!”

Meanwhile, much talk has centered around speculation in regards to Miss Middleton’s choice of dress and hairstyle – with recent rumors of a beautiful chignon coif being ignited after Kate was photographed sporting the fancy hairdo on Tuesday (April 26).

Kara DioGuardi was spotted arriving at the “Today” show at New York City’s Rockefeller Plaza (April 26).

The songwriter looked stunning as she made her way to the studio in a red, belted dress and black strappy heels.

The 40-year-old happened to be promoting her just-released memoir, “A Helluva High Note,” where she opened up about the molestation she experienced as a girl. And now Kara says her mother never did a thing about the sexual trauma she endured, telling PopEater that her mother “didn’t know how to handle it.”

DioGuari continued, “She barely said the word sex and there weren’t Oprahs, it was a different time, but in the last month I spoke to my mother’s friend’s kid and she relayed to me how my mother was speaking to her about it, so I definitely know it weighed on her and I spoke to her about it before she died.”

Reese Witherspoon was spotted after a morning workout in Los Angeles, CA (April 26).

The “Water For Elephants” babe looked to be in no mood to be in front of a camera as she made her way back to her vehicle before heading off to tend to the day’s duties.

On Easter Sunday, Reese and her new husband Jim Toth, along with her kids Ava and Deacon, attended church followed by a brunch at Ivy at the Shore in Santa Monica.

The happy family took a seat in the middle of the restaurant, but awhile later moved to a table with a bit more privacy.

Sarah Hyland was spotted out at lunch with a lucky group of fans at the W Hotel in L.A. (April 25).

The 20-year-old, dressed in a tie dye dress, snoopy t-shirt, and flip-flops, even stuck around to snap some fun pictures with her new pals.

Meanwhile, the hit comedy Sarah stars in, “Modern Family,” has just announced that an upcoming episode will be guest-directed by former child star Fred Savage.

In the episode, which is set to air May 11, Hyland’s on-screen parents Phil and Claire swap their “good cop, bad cop” roles with one another, shocking their three children.

Ashley Olsen was spotted out and about in New York City.

The actress/designer looked snazzy in a neutral tone outfit teamed with a light blue Chanel handbag and pearl jewelry.

In career news, Ashley and Mary Kate will be releasing a brand new line of eyewear and frames for glasses in June.

Anthony Hopkins and Rachel Weisz also lend their acting chops to the drama, which is due out in theaters sometime in 2012.

Michael Buble and wife Luisana Lopilato de la Torre left Venice, Italy for Milan (April 26).

The newlyweds have been spotted cozying up in various European destinations, even touring the City of Water on a uber-romantic gandoloa ride.

Venice seems to be just one stop on the the pair’s post-nuptials agenda, as they’ve headed off to Milan and are busy planning an upcoming wedding reception in Vancouver for Michael’s close family and friends.

The couple, who met at a record industry party back in 2008, tied the knot in a small, civil ceremony in Buenos Aires last month.

Jessica Alba and her daughter Honor were spotted out in Los Angeles, CA.

Being sure to have everything she needs for the day, the “Machete” mama walked her precious little girl into her Montessori preschool with a handful of her supplies.

Opening up about her second pregnancy, Alba recently told Latina Magazine, “Every moment was so new [the first time around] and kind of terrifying and now I know what to expect. It’s like, ‘it’s fine. I’ve been there before.’ With Honor, I was constantly like, ‘is she moving? Is her heart beating?’ I’d worry about everything and with this baby; I don’t have the same anxieties.”

Explaining a little bit about her pregnancy food habits, Jess added, “Sometimes you can’t get food out of your mind. I could always eat watermelon. With Honor I loved fruit, too. You still eat cheeseburgers and pickles. I don’t deprive myself of anything. I eat whatever.”

Lea Michele and Cory Monteith were spotted in Central Park (April 26).
