AFI Awards

DIANE KEATON: FROM RITE-AID TO AFI LIFE ACHIEVEMENT AWARD

Our Rite-Aid shopper Diane Keaton was honored with an AFI Life Achievement Award last night. At least two of her ex-boyfriends (Warren Beatty and Al Pacino) were honored years ago. Diane joked that the festive event was “The wedding I never had and the retirement party I never wanted!” You can see her trademark wide belt in person and in her photos on the walls. Apparently she inspired women attending the event to be creative, and Emma Stone turned up in this imaginative dress.

Her two sons with her late husband Carlo Ponti were there – Carlo Jr, 45, a filmmaker, and Edoardo ,41, an orchestra conductor. Joe Manganiello and Sofia Vergara were among her admirers in the audience.

CHER HAD A REUNION WITH “SILKWOOD” COSTAR MERYL STREEP AT THE AFI AWARDS

Cher showed up at the AFI Awards honoring Mike Nichols in her trademark goth look – chains, layers of fishnet, a little black leather, and a perky wig. She just finished her movie “Burlesque” and starts “The Drop-out” with Johnny Knoxville next. Cher and Meryl Streep had a laugh reminiscing about the movie “Silkwood” they did together, which was directed by Nichols.
