TINSELTOWN SPYWITNESS.Byline: Elizabeth Snead and Joel Stratte-McClure THE BEAR NECESSITIES: Some stars got a little tipsy. Others made a splash. But everyone was definitely feeling their oars at Monday's outdoor premiere of ``Without a Paddle'' on the Paramount lot in Hollywood. In keeping with the plot of three pals on a wilderness kayak trip, some of the stars - Seth Green, Dax Shepard Dax Randall Shepard (January 2, 1975) is an American actor.

In the film, three pals hunt for lost treasure in Oregon and have run-ins with sexy tree-hugger hotties, gun-toting pot growers, a too-friendly mountain man (Burt Reynolds, in an homage to wilderness nightmare ``Deliverance'') and some fierce furry forest critters. The scariest was Bart, the 1,000-pound Alaskan brown bear who mistakes Green for a lost cub. Bart is no stranger to films, having appeared with his twin sister Honey Bump in ``Dr. Dolittle 2.'' The 4-year-old will next be seen in ``An Unfinished Life'' with Robert Redford, Morgan Freeman and Jennifer Lopez. So what was it like working with such a big star? ``It was hilarious to watch him,'' says Shepard. ``He'll be running along doing what he's supposed to do, and then he'll just stop and tear apart a tree.''
