Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz took the carpet for the premiere of Bad Teacher; De Beers launched their book with a fancy party; the Standard got Creative with Kalup Linzy; the Public Theater held a gala for Shakespeare in the Park and more! Last night's parties decided it was better to be than not to be.
World Premiere of Columbia Pictures BAD TEACHER
Where: Ziegfeld Theater
Who Was There: Cameron Diaz, Justin Timberlake, Jake Kasdan, Jason Segel, Lucy Punch, Phyllis Smith, Tom Lennon, Kirstie Alley, Jill Zarin, Alex McCord
Other Details: Cameron Diaz, ex boyfriend Justin Timberlake, and funnyman Jason Segel (far taller than you would expect, even with the knowledge that he is 6'4") hit the red carpet for Bad Teacher. The flick is far less annoying and F-Bomb fueled than the trailer would make you think and there are actually some pretty cute parts. Movies with kids are always better than you expect. After the flick, guests head to an exclusive party at Bowery Hotel. [Via]
