Sienna Miller and Ben Affleck play lovers in his crime drama, Live by Night. But lately their offscreen chemistry — particularly some super-flirty photos of them at the flick’s London premiere — has been causing more buzz than the movie itself. Now Life & Style has learned the real reason Sienna, 35, has gotten so touchy-feely with Ben, 44. “Sienna has high hopes of working with Ben again and is pulling out all the stops to secure that next big role,” says an insider. “She wants to keep these big parts coming in.” Though Live by Night flopped, Ben’s track record as a director is impressive: Gone Baby Gone , The Town and Oscar Best Picture winner Argo all were critically acclaimed. So it’s no wonder Sienna wants to ensure…

“Don’t let negative people fill your life.”— Christina, on Jan. 14 With son Brayden on her hip, Christina El Moussa watched as daughter Taylor applied a coat of white paint to the exterior of her latest renovation project. Flip or Flop cameras rolled during the sweet moment, but the mom of two’s costar, estranged husband Tarek, was nowhere in sight. While HGTV has insisted that the series “will continue production” in the wake of the duo’s shocking 2016 split, the network has yet to indicate whether the El Moussas will be sharing any future screen time. “Christina has been trying to pitch her own show for months,” says an HGTV insider. “She truly wants to have her own career and wants to be separated from Tarek in every way.” She…

Justin Theroux loves a good party. And as he helped Orlando Bloom celebrate his 40th birthday at a Palm Springs, Calif., bash thrown on Jan. 14 by Orlando’s girlfriend, Katy Perry, he was clearly having the time of his life. At one point, Justin whipped off his shirt along with Orlando and a few other pals and posed, grinning, for a bare-chested Instagram pic. “The boys were having a blast,” says an insider. “Justin was animated and chatting with everybody.” But the fun ended whenever his wife, Jennifer Aniston, was around. “The moment Jen was there, Justin would just go quiet,” says the insider. “He got very somber. He wasn’t having any fun at all when he was with her. It was supposed to be a special weekend, but she…

Being Mariah’s man is one sweet gig! Working as her backup dancer, he gets a salary of around $2,500 a week, with perks including world travel via private jet and five-star accommodations (recently her crew stayed in a $60M mansion on Italy’s Lake Como)! And being her beau comes with extra bonuses: Romantic Getaways Over Thanksgiving, Mariah and Bryan smooched on the beach at Maui’s Grand Wailea Resort (where suites go for $4K a night). They celebrated Christmas at a $22M Airbnb home in Aspen, Colo. (above). Luxe Threads Mariah’s man has to dress the part, and she’s paying for it. On a recent shopping spree at Balmain in Paris, Bryan got nearly $15K worth of duds, including a $7,700 tiger jacket. Five-Star Dining Mariah has taken Bryan to the…

JAY CUTLER He wasn’t exactly in MVP contention this season as a football player, but Jay is definitely in the running for the husband of the year award. First he planned a surprise 30th birthday party for wife-of-three-years Kristin Cavallari, and then he swept her away on a surprise Mexican vacation with some of her closest pals in tow. GRADE: A+ KATE MIDDLETON When Prince William told British TV personality Sean Fletcher that he’d like to someday run a marathon, just like his sister-in-law Pippa (who completed one in 2015 and another in 2016), Kate had a snarky response prepared. “I’ll believe it when I see it,” she said, according to Fletcher. Show a little faith, Kate! GRADE: B SOFÍA VERGARA AND JOE MANGANIELLO Is there trouble in paradise for…

The Celebrity Stylist Says “Sexiness and confidence can shine through in unexpected ways — it’s not just about body-baring clothing,” says stylist Laura Zapata, who has dressed TV stars like Troian Bellisario and Dascha Polanco. “By wearing see-through shoes, celebs get ‘revealing’ in a whole new way.” Zapata adds that coming on the heels of the popularity of sneakers and combat boots, clear styles are a more feminine way to complement a bold outfit. For example, the clear nature of these recently dubbed “nothing shoes” lets a fringed frock like Kylie’s or a spaghetti-strap mini like Gigi’s take center stage. Even better, says Zapata: “They offer the slimming lift of a heel while the lack of color leaves an uninterrupted line of skin for long, lean legs!” The Designer Says…

On-the-go A-listers have places to be and people to see — and they’re not about to let the frigid temps stop them from looking stylish en route! The latest accessory duo that has Tinseltown’s trendsetters ready for business: top-handled totes and chic shades. “When worn with ripped skinnies and held by the handle like Karlie does here, a satchel gives a dose of sass. But it can also add polish to an office look when paired with tailored suiting, or it can be carried as a cross-body for a cazh-cool vibe,” says stylist Nicolas Bru, who has dressed stars like Fergie and Jada Pinkett Smith. “It’s a style chameleon!” What’s more? “Donning shades in the winter adds instant model-off-duty edge.” Here, our picks for four fabulous pairings.

My fave clothing label is... Ted Baker. They make a dress better than anyone else. The best party I ever attended was... when my best friend threw a Sex and the City DVD marathon party where we all dressed up like characters. That was fun. When it comes to my beauty routine... I feel most beautiful with no makeup except lipstick. I like feeling I have nothing on my face but a pop of color. My favorite home away from home is... the Gramercy Park Hotel in New York. I love the area it’s in. The oldest thing in my closet is... a Norma Kamali green corset from the ’80s. It is pretty awesome. My most luxe vacation was... when my mother had been going through a really tough time,…

Nick Jonas is the one making someone else jealous these days. The singer has been regularly texting his long-ago ex Miley Cyrus, 24, and it isn’t sitting well with her fiancé, Liam Hemsworth. Nick, 24, “has been sending Miley friendly texts for weeks, and Liam is furious,” says a source. “He told Miley she’d better tell Nick to back off.” It’s smart for Liam, 27, to be wary. Though Nick’s texts haven’t been romantic, “he recently decided he really wants to find a girlfriend and settle down,” the source says. “He is reaching out to old flames and old friends, and it doesn’t seem to matter whether or not they’re taken.”…

It was apparently written in the stars that Kanye West would come out of his mental breakdown last November with a new outlook on life. Since ending his nine-day stint at UCLA Medical Center, the rapper, 39, has become obsessed with astrology, a source tells Life & Style. “Kanye has a very spiritual side,” the source says, “and right now he feels a really strong connection to zodiac signs and what they mean for a person’s life.” (Kanye is a Gemini—good news for his marriage to Libra Kim Kardashian, because those signs are considered a good match.) “For the holidays, Kanye bought gold-plated pendants from XIV Karats in Beverly Hills for all of his friends and family featuring their zodiac signs,” the source adds. “He sent them to dozens of…

Bella Hadid has been so heartbroken over her ex, The Weeknd, moving on with Selena Gomez that Bella’s sis Gigi and her beau, Zayn Malik, have invited the model to move into their home until she’s recovered, a source says. Now Bella, 20, will need their support even more than any of them realize. The Weeknd (real name: Abel Tesfaye), 26, and Selena, 24, “have been secretly hooking up for an entire year,” an insider exclusively reveals. “Bella thinks it only started when her relationship with Abel had fallen apart. She is going to be livid when she finds out the truth.” There’s more: Abel repeatedly promised Selena he would leave Bella, the insider says, until the duo finally split last November. “Bella thinks Selena is completely two-faced,” the insider…

Christina’s been trying to put her nightmare with Tarek behind her. She’s already found new romance with twice-divorced contractor Gary Anderson (inset), who worked for the family in 2015, and now things are getting serious. “She’s been spending time with Gary’s family,” says an HGTV insider. “She loves his daughters Kacey and Kristen and treats them like her best friends.” In fact, Christina posted a photo of herself and hairstylist Kristen (above) partying in Park City, Utah, over the holidays. Now there’s a wedding in Christina’s future: Kristen is set to get married in 2017, and the Flip or Flop star is sure to be her dad’s date!…

Now that George and Amal Clooney are expecting twins (a boy and a girl, as In Touch exclusively revealed), the actor has twice the reason to spoil his wife. And he’s sparing no expense to do it. “George plans to take Amal on not one, but two babymoons,” an insider reveals. “One of their favorite destinations is Cabo San Lucas, [Mexico]. They always relax when they get there, and they’ll need to rest up with twins on the way! They also love to escape to the South of France.” George, 55, even has a plan to indulge all of 38-year-old Amal’s pregnancy cravings. “He’s promised to have her favorite foods, which change from day to day, flown out to wherever they happen to be,” the insider says. “Lately Amal’s been…

Carnival Chic? Sorry, Bryce Dallas Howard. The mix of vertical and horizontal lines on this Victoria Beckham have a fun-house-mirror effect that would throw even the most bombshell of bods out of proportion. Don’t Taste the Rainbow This Missoni frock hugs Piper Perabo’s Notorious-ly killer curves. But the frenzy of statement hues and the subtle graphic swirls dancing within the stripes is downright dizzying.

Flicked: Edgy “A thick spike adds a shot of edge to a basic bun,” says hairstylist Tommy Buckett, who’s worked with Gigi Hadid and Hailee Steinfeld. To do: Flatiron hair so it’s sleek; secure into a high pony. To create the bun, wrap the tail around the pony’s base. Then divide the tail’s end in half. Pin one half into the bun and create the flick with the other by sculpting the section up and out using a strong-hold gel (like Got2b Glued Spiking Gel, $4, ulta.com). Blow-dry to seal the gelled strands into place. Looped: Girlie “A loose looped look gives Gwen’s topknot an effortless, feminine vibe,” says Buckett. And it’s so easy to achieve! First, work a smoothing cream (like Garnier Fructis Style Smooth Blow Dry Cream, $3,…

Hey, Paris, ENTERTAINMENT IS NOT THE BIZ FOR YOU So Paris Jackson recently made her modeling debut (pictured above) and is reportedly considering acting offers. I know she’s Michael Jackson’s daughter, but the 18-year-old is not cut out for showbiz and the scrutiny that comes with it. Paris has been through enough. Since her father’s death in 2009, she’s attempted suicide and battled depression. Most recently, she made a tearful plea to cyberbullies asking for no more hate. So forget Hollywood! She should use her father’s money to open up her own business, like a wellness spa. Paris, take your money and run! Go to HSN.com  to check out Wendy’s exclusive fashion collection.

Bold earrings? Check! Smoldering smoky eyes? Check! Braids that are big enough to be seen from outer space? Yasss! “Hollywood has gone gaga for oversize plaits since they command attention and add modern edge to any updo,” says hairstylist Daniel Koye, who’s worked with Jessica Chastain and Vanessa Williams. “The key to making a real statement style is to build in braids that can be seen from any angle.” But, Koye warns, a supersize braid that isn’t blended can skew more costumey than chic. His tip: “Weave braids in at the sides and wrap them into a low-lying bun in back for seamless style.”…

Bella Thorne’s team of handlers was already on high alert because of her wild-child ways and risqué social media antics, but the 19-year-old’s new relationship with controversial social media star Sam Pepper, 27, is giving them something new to worry about. “Bella is playing with fire with Sam, but she just doesn’t care,” says an insider. “Everyone thinks this is a dangerous relationship.” Sam comes with baggage: In September 2014, he posted a YouTube video of himself groping women (he later claimed it was a “social experiment”). Soon after, multiple women accused him of sexual assault. (He has never been charged with any such crime.) “Bella’s team worries Sam will put Bella in one of his outrageous videos,” the insider adds. “They’re trying to avoid that.”…

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Rinna is worth $8 million, but you wouldn’t know it based on some of her shopping habits. “She is a nightmare shopper,” gripes an insider. Lisa, 53, “is notorious for spending hours in a store trying on tons of expensive outfits but never buying anything.” Some of the employees at a store Lisa frequents are getting fed up. “No one wants to help her anymore,” the insider says. “With the sheer amount of clothes she tries on, she creates extra work for the employees when they have to get the wrinkles out and put all the clothes back on the racks.” Adds the insider: “It’s a lot of work for no payoff!”…

The nasty divorce hasn’t slowed Christina down. “I’ve got so many things going on,” she says. “I’m working on so much.” That’s no exaggeration: The blond beauty has been busy promoting everything from her Success Path real estate investment seminars (right) to products (by Dove, Diffeyewear, Snack Factory, Pink Dust Cosmetics and Sherwin-Williams) on Instagram. “She is the breadwinner,” LA-based family law attorney Goldie Schon concluded after seeing Tarek’s divorce filing, including his request for spousal support. “He’s presuming he’s not going to get as much of an income.”…

Bryan Tanaka was miserable. Watching Mariah Carey try on the wedding gown she planned to wear when she married fiancé James Packer, he saw the life he’d imagined with his secret crush slip away. “Seeing Mariah in that dress, it’s definitely a wake-up call,” the backup dancer confessed on the Jan. 15 episode of Mariah’s World. Now, Bryan said, he knew that his dream of walking down the aisle with the singer was just “living in this fantasy.” Or not. Months later, Bryan’s fantasies have come true. In November, he and Mariah started dating, and now Life & Style has exclusively learned that they’re engaged and eagerly planning their wedding. “Bryan and Mari-ah briefly talked about marriage on their romantic trip to Aspen in December, but he showed her just…

DECADENT MEALS ON THE REG Ben has tried being a vegan, but the actor still occasionally eats fish. And he certainly makes those indulgences count! Last year, he enjoyed the fare at London’s decadent Sexy Fish restaurant, where a plate of sashimi sets diners back $65. ONLY COURTSIDE SEATS WILL DO Ben, Christine and the kids can often be found cheering on the New York Knicks from some of the best seats in the house. “Even when they lose, there’s nothing like going to a Knicks game,” shares the actor. AN OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD COLLECTION Ben is the ultimate Star Trek fan, and with a $120 million fortune, he can afford to collect a lot of show memorabilia. “I have Spock’s ears at home,” he says. “For my…

Baggy + Brocade = Frumpy Brocade can look royally elegant…or it can look like a pair of drapes were turned into a dress. Sarah Jessica Parker’s style? The loose fit, thick pleats and long sleeves skew more Bed Bath & Beyond than Bloomingdale’s. Sidestep the Hip Swell Fifty Shades Darker star Bella Heathcote’s Marc Jacobs dress has a flirty ’50s feel. But a skirt that poufs at the tum with a blotch of black on each hip optically widens her lower half, throwing her hourglass out of proportion. Splotchy? Skip It With its plunging neckline, defined waist and A-line skirt, Broadway beauty Montego Glover highlights her gorgeous curves. The only oops? The spotty brocade on her full skirt ends up having a 3D effect that adds heft. Stay Sleek to…

The Cali coast has been having its share of gray days, but the stars are still sporting beach-babe glows. Their secret: “Bronzer, of course! It adds a much-needed shot of color to winter skin,” says makeup artist David Maderich, who’s worked with Kate Hudson and Gisele Bündchen. “And really, who doesn’t want to look like they just stepped off the boat from Capri?” Maderich’s steps to a flawless “tan”: First, choose a bronzer that’s one or two shades darker than your skin’s natural tone. “And keep in mind that fair skin looks best with pink-based bronzers while darker skin tones are best complemented by golden brown–based bronzers.” Next, dot a small amount on the high points of the face (forehead, cheekbones, chin and the bridge of the nose) — spots…

OUTSMART YOUR (FAT) GENES When it comes to your body weight, heredity is not necessarily destiny. If you come from a family where most members are overweight or you have a personal history of carrying excess pounds, rest assured: You can overcome these influences with your eating and exercise habits. “Changing your diet can actually change your gene expression,” nutritionist Catherine Christie, co-author of Fat Is Not Your Fate , explains. “This means you hold the power in your food choices to turn the genes that might contribute to obesity on or off,” as well as to activate genes that will keep your metabolism revving efficiently. In other words, “by altering your eating habits, you can get your genes to work for you, rather than against you,”…
