Christina And Emile Race To Radio 1
I still can't help looking at Christina Ricci and thinking Wednesday Addams or of her in Casper, or Now And Then, but she's been totally grown-up for quite some time now (although she's still pocket-sized!) and is currently in London promoting Speed Racer.

Speed Racer Takes a Backseat to Charity For the Weekend
The cast of Speed Racer saw a perfect opportunity to promote their film at the 2008 Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race in Long Beach on Saturday. Emile Hirsch and Matthew Fox looked cool and casual as they watched from the sidelines, while the ladies got a bit more dressed up. Christina Ricci wasn't going to let a sports event stop her from looking girly in her high heels and cute hair — what do you think of her wavy bob?
