DID JUSTIN BIEBER VISIT THE AMERICAN GIRL STORE LOOKING FOR GIRLS?

He didn’t, but compared to Chris Brown, Justin Bieber is really not such a bad guy. He took his little half-sister Jazmyn, 8, to the mall for some fun shopping and back to school necessities. And he knew what she REALLY wanted – a visit to the American Girl store. (That’s where Brad Pitt took his little girl Zahara.) Jazmyn picked out SEVEN outfits plus accessories for her doll, and they walked out happily with a huge shopping bag.

Halle Berry took her very excited little girl Nahla to the American Girl store at The Grove. She also treated herself to some items for home at Crate & Barrel. Halle is waiting to hear if her TV series “Extant” will be renewed for a second season, but it’s doubtful because the ratings were disappointing. Not to worry – she has several movies in the works. Nahla is starting to look more and more like her father Gabriel Aubry.

Moms like Teri Hatcher have always brought their daughters to American Girl Place to pick out their lookalike dolls and outfits, but Hollywood dads are getting into the act. It’s a great bonding experience for father and daughters. Brad Pitt brought Shiloh and Zahara SEPARATELY to American Girl Place because he likes to have private time with each child. Mark Wahlberg made a day of it with his daughter Ella – note: they have similar facial expressions.

Shannon Elizabeth would be a nice relative to have. The actress, last seen on “Dancing with the Stars,” brought this little girl who appears to be a niece or cousin, and treated her to a splurge at American Girl Place at The Grove. Shannon bought her a new doll and a wardrobe that included matching necklaces for the girl and her doll. Shannon is still dating her dance partner Derek Hough, and did you know she travels to Las Vegas three times a month for poker tournaments? She’s THAT good at playing the game.

It’s Julia Roberts, organizing an outing in New York with some friends and her twins. It’s cute how colorful the twins are – Phinnaeus “Finn” is a vivid redhead and Hazel is platinum blonde. Did you know Julia executive produced four American Girl movies? The movies teach pre-teen girls what it was like to live in various periods of American history.

Before the Jolie-Pitt family left Los Angeles for the South of France, Brad had a special experience with three year old Zahara. We told you Brad likes to spend time ALONE with each of his children to give them special attention. Brad took Zahara to The Grove to visit the American Girl store. When he walked in the salesgirls silently swooned. Brad took Zahara upstairs and had her pick out her first American Girl doll – a Bitty Baby doll that looked just like her with the same skin and hair color. It comes with a little book. Afterward he took Zahara out for her favorite ice cream and more bonding. Nice daddy, huh?

TERI HATCHER AND EMERSON: NEVER TOO OLD TO PLAY WITH DOLLS!

Teri Hatcher’s fashionable daughter Emerson may LOOK very grown up and sophisticated, but she’s only nine years old! So it’s not surprising that Emerson loves the American Girl store at The Grove. Not long ago Teri ordered a custom doll that looks just like Emerson. Then Teri and Emerson went on a shopping spree in the store, spending $300 on doll clothes and accessories and outfits for Emerson that match. Now Emerson and her mini-me doll can wear the same sport clothes and sleep in the same pajamas.
