Taking a break from her post-rehab clean and sober days, Kirsten Dunst was spotted raising her glass (over and over again) at her 26th birthday bash earlier this month. According to Star magazine, the “Spider-Man” actress partied the night away at NYC’s Bowery Electric.

A spywitness claims Kirsten downed a shot of whiskey before moving on to a series of rum and Cokes. “She got worse as the night went on,” the source revealed to the magazine. “She started out pretty chill, but hours later she was dancing and jumping around like a crazed animal!”

The onlooker also accused Kirsten of cozying up to fellow partygoers, including a bearded pal. “She kept touching him and snuggling close, laughing and smiling.” But he wasn’t the only one she had her eye on. “She indulged any guy who gave her attention. She also went up to several guys and started flirting with them hardcore.”

It was 3 a.m. before the star called it a night. By then “(Kirsten) was just so completely out of it,” the witness said.

Star Jones finds a younger man
Her divorce from Al Reynolds is barely underway, but Star Jones isn’t letting that hold her back. The National Enquirer reports the former “View”-er is already hitting the town with a new man 17 years her junior.

Jones’ latest catch is Marc Lamont Hill, professor and political analyst. “Star met Marc about a year ago when he was booked as a guest on her Court TV show, and they hit it off immediately — as friends — but now they are getting to know one another a lot better since she filed for divorce,” a Star pal told the publication. “They enjoy one another’s company, and although Star says she is not ready for anything serious so soon, she likes him and wants to see where it goes.”

Apparently, part of Marc’s appeal lies in his very un-Al-like lifestyle. “In Star’s eyes, Marc is head and shoulders above Al because he’s already gone out and made something of himself at a young age,” the friend said.

Dish on the fly
It doesn’t really matter what critics have to say about “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,” as far as Harrison Ford’s concerned. “It’s the people who pay to get in, and whether they are getting satisfaction for their dollars spent,” the actor told OK! magazine. “I suppose (the critics’ assessments) would be interesting, but I don’t read reviews.” … Looks like Nicole Kidman wants to put an end to all the puny baby bump talk. While posing for paps at the Academy of Country Music Awards, Nicole did everything she could to emphasize her growing tummy. In photos featured on the Daily Mail Online, the actress can be seen holding her dress tight against her, arching her back and even enlisting the belly-framing help of hubby Keith Urban. …  Jessica Alba already has her parenting approach all planned out for her baby-to-be. “I don’t want to be my child’s best friend; I want to be a mom,” she told Fit Pregnancy. “But I do want my child to come to me when they have problems and need to talk, so it’s going to be about treading that line.”
