Reese Witherspoon picked a black and pink strapless Zac Posen dress for her LA premiere of How Do You Know last night. She posed with her leading men Paul Rudd and Owen Wilson, though her real-life love, Jim Toth, skipped the red carpet. He's partially responsible for keeping that big smile on her face, of course, and she was coming off another relaxing weekend with Jim and her kids, Ava and Deacon. Paul Rudd was fresh from NYC, where he hosted SNL, and he spoke about how exciting it was to hang out with the episode's musical guest, Paul McCartney. Owen Wilson revealed that it was Reese who encouraged him to join the movie and joked that he knows he's not in love when a girl calls and he presses the "ignore" button on his phone. Reese got a bit beat up on the set of this film, which is her return to the big screen after two years off. Still, she had nothing but glowing things to say about the experience making How Do You Know and also poured compliments on another of her hot recent costars, Robert Pattinson. She has gushed about Rob before, and this time she stacked up the experiences working with Robert, Owen, and Paul. Check out everything she had to say about Rob and more from yesterday's screening on PopSugar Rush!

Reese Witherspoon joined her How Do You Know costars Owen Wilson, Paul Rudd, and Jack Nicholson yesterday for a press conference in NYC during their weekend-long junket with writer-director James L. Brooks. Reese and the boys laughed their way through the questions and answers, and she chatted about being stuck between Paul and Owen, and even revealed one particularly bad date from her past. Owen shared a unique tale about firing a machine gun with friends beneath an embassy's tennis court, while Paul and Jack likewise weighed in with funny anecdotes — read selected excerpts below, and stay tuned for more quotes!

• Reese on bad blind dates: "I had someone correct my grammar on a blind date once, and I knew in the first ten minutes that the date was over. You just don’t correct someone’s grammar! I’m from Tennessee I probably said everything wrong. I probably said ain’t or something."
• Reese on her motivations: "I’m definitely one of those people who has post-its everywhere. The six evils of the world. I really do! Desire, greed, envy. . . Try to tell myself all those things to avoid! Positive affirmations, I have to say “Judge not lest ye be judged” has guided me through life."
• Reese on being unsettled like her character: "I think it’s really interesting to play a woman who can articulate that she isn’t ready to have a family — isn’t even sure she wants to have a family! I have a lot of friends like that. I think it’s a really interesting character than can say it. And I think Jim really wrote it so beautifully, that emotional honesty of someone who is not afraid to be honest about maybe not wanting what other women want. And I think there’s a lot of women out there like that. I think it’s really interesting to play a character like that. Obviously it’s not like myself, I have two kids, a very sort of settled-down life. But it was cool to play that girl."
• Reese on being the filling in a Rudd/Wilson sandwich: "It’s a tough job, you know ladies, but someone’s got to do it! It was great. How lucky am I to work with two of the most talented, funny, attractive, hysterical men. It was weird too because — oh I could go on. . . Every time I’d do a scene with Owen, I’d get really attached to Owen. Then the day he had to leave I started crying out of nowhere!"
