Debra 'Messing' with the Movies

Originally posted 01/25/2005 06:00AM

Though she announced some of the nominees for AOL's Moviefone Moviegoer Awards, it seems Will & Grace star Debra Messing doesn't go to many films. Or so it would seem, as she had trouble pronouncing three of the movie titles. Hotel Rwanda became "Hotel Rwinda," Spike Lee's She Hate Me came out "She Hates Me," and The Polar Express turned into "The Polar Bear Express." The latter, she said, is due to her 9-month-old son, Roman, whose favorite book is Polar Bear, Polar Bear. Messing appeared at the L.A. event with Dermot Mulroney, her costar in the upcoming romantic comedy The Wedding Date – and though it doesn't open until Feb. 4, she was already on the lookout for an award at next year's ceremony. "We could be nominated next year for best screen kiss, perhaps," she said. Mulroney said jokingly: "There's at least one (kiss), let's put it that way. There might be four or five. I lost count after three." Of her costar appearing on Will & Grace, Messing said, "He's very elusive. But I would love to have him on the show. I would love any opportunity to work with him again."

New Moms, New Lives

Gwyneth Paltrow and Apple Blythe Alison, 4 monthsForget the first smile (though they are heart-melting). The real milestones in a new mother's life are: (1) Getting back into skinny jeans; and (2) Leaving the kid with a sitter for the first time. By returning to her yoga mat – which she had used throughout the pregnancy, alongside supportive husband Chris Martin – Paltrow, 31, turned up scarcely a month after Apple's May 14 birth in a pair of slender Seven jeans. (Recently, Martin, 27, dropped the wife off at an East Hampton, N.Y., yoga studio to down-dog it alone.) Though she now jokes that "blush and a girdle" explain her enviable appearance just days after a 70-hour labor, she allows that losing the 35 lbs. she put on was "tough." Tougher still for Paltrow is leaving her golden, delicious Apple at home.

Hello, Baby! | Charlie Sheen, Denise Richards

Hello, Baby!

Charlie's AngelDenise Richards can attest: Her "compassionate" and "sensitive" husband can also be devilishly charming. But at 3 a.m. on a recent Wednesday morning, the lady at his side – his newborn daughter Sam – was simply not going to be soothed. "I changed her three or four times and fed her and did the burping," he says. For four hours he tried to get her to go to sleep, but she still wailed every time he left her nursery. "Finally I took her to Denise, and we put her between us," he says, "and she fell right asleep." The lesson? To heck with experts who suggest you let babies cry themselves to sleep. "You know what? No," Sheen, 38, says. "There's a time when compassion outweighs everything else."
