Producer Joel Silver throws a Memorial Day party every year at his Malibu home. The party has become something of a hot ticket around Hollywood, and every year some big names come out to the party. To Joel Silver’s credit, the party does seem low-key and fun, and celeb parents often bring their kids along. The paparazzi stake out the driveway, which becomes sort of the “red carpet” for the party. These are photos from the driveway.
This year’s party included appearances from Rob Lowe and his wife, Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson, Gwen Stefani & Gavin, Tobey Maguire & his family, Minnie Driver & her son, Kate Beckinsale and her husband and daughter, and Colin Farrell and Sean Penn (not together). I’m including some assorted photos in this post. I like seeing the low-key style and I like imagining that despite all of the hand-wringing about LA not being a “community” anymore, that all of these celebrities do spend time together and they’re raising their kids together.
Also: does Diane Kruger look pregnant to anyone else, or is her skirt just really ugly and unflattering?

Aw, I wanna got to a Memorial Day cook-out with Josh Jackson 🙁
They look so cute together. Jerks.
…and Gavin R. is ageless.
ha ha.. I love Diane’s shoes. Penn’s looking kind of greasy though.
Ugh, Penn! So greasy! All I could think was how much he reminded me of my creepy neighbor when I was growing up who insisted I call him “Uncle” when he was definitely not close enough to my family for that. *shudder*
Gavin makes my gaydar go DING DING DING.
Colin F looks fantastic!
Ooooh Colin Farrell; spank me daddy.
Even though these shorts are atrocious, DKrugs is TRES ADORBS! And was sorely missed at Cannes. Also, this seems like one hell of a party.
Agreed!
I didn’t rate Diane Kruger before Joshua Jackson started dating her. He is beyond awesome and yummy as Peter Bishop in Fringe.
+100 on Joshua Jackson yumminess as Peter Bishop! I suppose I’ll have to watch the series all over…again…suchhhh a chore! 😉
Diane is beautiful…and I don’t think she’s pregnant, she’s got a TV show to shoot now.
The other guests are much more interesting. No Diane doesn’t look pregnant to me.
Good to see Colin F. Senn P is not aging well. Gwen just looks divine. Kate is looking great as always.
I never get the appeal of Diane K (just a generic looking blond to me) and her fashion is hit and miss.
Sean P. is wearing a toupe now I assume??!! LOVE Colin, such a cool dude (see this is how you do aging hispter well Johnny Depp!!). Kate Beckinsale – there is nothing that screams aging like having a same-size teen daughter by your side (LOL, it will happen one day to ALL these Hollywood actresses who are posing with their accessory/babies like they are young and hip but one day…they will look like a middle-age ar Mom too!!).
Someone once said that Diane Kruger is a classier version of Kate Bosworth and now I can’t get that out of my head every time I see pictures of her.
That seems really spot-on. She also seems way nicer and has way more fun with fashion. She has Presence!
Oh Colin…
Gwen looks ridiculous with that bun on her head. How old is she? Don’t get me wrong, she looks great, but why not a somewhat more mature style?
Gavin Rossdale looks like a Treasure Island prop.
All I want to know is whether David Duchovny was there. The rumours about his and Minnie Driver’s hookups have driven a stake through my heart
i just want to run my fingers through Kate Beckinsale’s hair and muss it up. It always looks the same…she is in desperate need for a new look.
Rossdale looks like a douche!
Really? I love Kate beckinsales hair! It actually looks like her own hair, which is refreshing.
She looks absolutely marvelous, love the entire ensemble.
Kate B is incapable of doing “daytime” hair and make up. She always looks so overdone. I just want her to do casual for once!
