The “Gossip Girl” gals were out in full force on Friday afternoon (October 10), filming a new episode of their hit CW drama in the Upper East Side of New York City.

Always stylish, Leighton Meester teamed up with Taylor Momsen to shoot a few scenes, while co-star Blake Lively was also spotted roaming around the set.

Out enjoying the sunny October weather, Britney Spears was spotted picking up her sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, from school in Los Angeles on Friday (October 10).

Accompanied by her father, Jamie Spears, two bodyguards and a nanny, the “Gimme More” singer toted Jayden in her arms while the nanny took care of Sean.

Taking her daughter along with her to work today (October 10), Salma Hayek got started with filming duties for her recurring guest role on the Brooklyn Heights set of “30 Rock”.

In the scene, shot in Cadman Plaza Park, Baldwin’s character pays a visit to Hayek’s character during a family picnic. In between takes, Salma made sure to spend time playing with little Valentina - who looked to have gotten a case of the giggles.

Salma Hayek settles into recurring TV Role

Salma Hayek has landed a juicy role on another Thursday-night series. Hayek has been confirmed for a recurring role on NBC’s Emmy-winning 30 Rock, (on set above with baby Valentina and Alec Baldwin) playing no less than former GE exec Jack Donaghy’s new love interest. Hayek says in a statement:

“I have been a fan of [30 Rock exec producer] Tina [Fey]’s talent, both as an actress and a writer, since working with her years ago on SNL.” ” I am so excited to be part of such an intelligent, funny show, as well as working with the brilliant Alec Baldwin and the rest of the cast of 30 Rock.”

Hayek produces and once guest-starred on ABC’s Ugly Betty.

Looking as if he just jumped out of bed, Ben Affleck was spotted out and about this morning (October 10) lending a helping hand to his expecting wife Jennifer Garner.

Toting daughter Violet in his arms, the “Good Will Hunting” hunk and his “Juno” bride were in the midst of a schoolhouse drop-off, then off to take care of their daily business before this evening’s big AL Championship Series game featuring Ben’s beloved Boston Red Sox.

It seems that we can’t get enough of Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and their 6 adorable kids!  But according to Ang, she was only open to adoption, rather than giving birth, until she met Pitt.

In a recent interview, the “Changeling” babe explained, “I think one of the life changing things that he did, one of many, is that I was absolutely never going to get pregnant. I never felt that it was the right thing to do.”
