Thanksgiving is a time to celebrate family and friends, and on the eve of the American holiday power couples Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes and David and Victoria Beckham gave thanks for both as they sat down with their children at a reserved table inside the Il Cantorini restaurant.

Although he flew among the stars a year ago as a space tourist on a 10-day journey to the International Space Station, on November 22, 2008 billionaire Charles Simonyi was in seventh heaven as he said "I do" to his love of less than one year, Lisa Persdotter.

Which restaurant is the top spot in Liverpool for an epicurean adventure? For
Sherlock Holmes stars Robert Downey Jr., who will portray the legendary detective in the upcoming Guy Ritchie-directed flick, and Jude Law, who has stepped into the shoes of the sleuth's sidekick Dr. Watson, the answer is elementary-- 60 Hope Street. A venue recognized for its seafood selection, the A-listers, along with a coterie of cast and crew members, mulled over a menu featuring fish and chips in Cain's beer batter and pan-fried fillet of sea bass with clam chowder before enjoying their choice of gastronomic treat at the Georgian-style dining establishment, the
Liverpool Echo reported
Although Liverpool is best known as the birthplace of The Beatles, it was Gerry and the Pacemakers' tune "Ferry Cross the Mersey" which brought pop culture prominence to the River Mersey, the body of water which once welcomed a steady flow of steamers pulling away from Clarence Dock, where cameras rolled on the upcoming feature film in mid-November. No longer in use, the site received a time-altering transformation back to its heyday as the cast and crew arrived in their Victorian vestments.

Following the Buddhist faith for several years, Orlando Bloom is known for his interest in mankind's spiritual side. No doubt the

Constructed in the 16th century on the order of Ivan the Terrible, the landmark lords over Red Square and Vasilyevsky Spusk, where the matinee idol braved the bone-chilling temperature and waved at fans before walking past the Russian President's official residence, the Kremlin.
Through the bitter cold, the heartthrob's heart was surely warmed by the thought of girlfriend (and, if rumor becomes reality, fiancee) Miranda Kerr, who was basking in the glow of both the Miami sunshine and the admiring glances of guests as she arrived at the Fontainbleau Hotel for the annual Victoria's Secret fashion show.
