• Don't stress that you can't buy all the fancy frocks you want, Kate Hudson can't either. In an interview in the December issue of
Harper's Bazaar, Hudson admitted that she doesn't spend nearly as much on clothing as you might think. "People think we own all these dresses," she says, "but we borrow them! I can't afford to buy that stuff. There are certain things I splurge on, but it's very rare, especially when you have two kids and school tuition. I'm not a big high-end fashion shopper. I wish I could but the truth is things are just so expensive. Before Isabel Marant was a million dollars and famous, I used to go to her store in Paris and go crazy, it was so affordable." [

• It turns out that
Hunger Games: Catching Fire director Francis Lawrence might actually be to blame for Jennifer Lawrence's new Kate Gosselin-rific pixie cut. In a recent interview, Lawrence admitted that he banned JLaw from using wigs. "She used to give me a hard time about the hair because I was always saying, 'Dye your hair, dye your hair. We need your hair dyed, no wigs!' And then of course, dying her hair fried her hair, so she had to cut her hair." [
