Christina Ricci is a Pig

Christina Ricci snuggles up with a stuffed animal pig at a press conference promoting her upcoming film Penelope at Hotel Seiyo Ginza on Wednesday in Tokyo, Japan. The 27-year-old actress wore a green dress from The Row (The Olsen Twins‘ high-end fashion line) and Givenchy heels.

Penelope will open in early spring in 2008 in Japan and on Feb. 1, 2008 in the U.S. Ricci plays a pig-nosed girl in the film.

And why isn’t costar Reese Witherspoon promoting Penelope with Christina? She’s busy getting her relationship on with Jake Gyllenhaal in San Francisco, Calif.! Reese was recently seen walking along Pier 39 at the Fisherman’s Wharf with Jake and her son Deacon. Awww!!!

WHAT DO YOU THINK of Christina’s lighter locks?
