Shia LaBeouf’s man fixation
FameFlynet, Splash
As I mentioned last week, I am loving Shia LaBeouf right now. I love him so much. Because he has been nothing but entertaining. Crazy, but entertaining. Shia was supposed to be on Broadway in Orphans. But he and Alec Baldwin couldn’t stop yelling at each other. Full Story
Mimi’s Anniversary Easter
This first photo needs no caption. Just enjoy it. It is meant to be ENJOYED. As previously mentioned, it was Mimi’s birthday last week. Only…she doesn’t call it a birthday. She calls it the 327 Anniversary. God I love her. Anyway, here are some pictures she posted on Instagram of what Nick Cannon did for her on the 327 Anniversary. Full Story
Kate Moss’s sushi box
This is not a euphemism for anything. It’s actually exactly as it reads: Kate Moss’s sushi box. She designed one. For some sushi chain that’s opening in London. Apparently there are 40 pieces and it’s covered in sequins with her name all over it. So basically, you can go there, to the Sushi Shop and eat Kate Moss’s sushi box. Full Story
Benedict Cumberbatch but, really, Tom Stoppard
I’ve not yet started watching Parade’s End yet. I know! F-cking award season, right? But my travel slows down in a week or so and in between having a nervous breakdown over my deadlines, Parade’s End will be my jam, I promise, and I will probably love it, which will make me hate Downton Abbey even more, and I do really love to hate Downton Abbey.

Boy/Man Sh-t is also the Best Sh-t
Girl Sh-t Is The Best Sh-t is a common phrase we use here at LaineyGossip and one I stole from my friend Lara. It really is. But Boy Sh-t is pretty great too. Previous examples of Boy Sh-t include Joseph Gordon-Levitt vs Michael Cera (click here for a refresher), Michael Bay vs Hugo Weaving, and Shia LaBeouf vs Jason Clarke and Tom Hardy on the set of Lawless (click here Full Story

Why not? It’s our Mimi. And she’s making the rounds on the morning shows, presumably to promote American Idol. Heard she was amazing on Kelly & Michael this morning which starts here on the West Coast in a few minutes. Will set the PVR and enjoy later with a glass of wine. Have you been watching Idol? I don’t even bother with the performances. Full Story

We have a very specific way of covering major award shows here at LaineyGossip; it takes us longer but it’s only because we want to talk about everything like you’re talking about everything when you were watching, instead of just throwing up the pictures right away. Also, we love to argue about it. Full Story

Sometimes they get it right and it’s perfect casting. And you don’t even have to see it to know. Kristen Wiig has been confirmed to play a young Lucille Bluth when Arrested Development returns for Season 4 on Netflix. You thought Netflix was worth it for House Of Cards? Please. Netflix for Arrested Development is the only truth. Full Story
Beyonce’s Tree Of Life

You see what I meant when I wrote last week -- click here for a refresher -- about the amateur obviousness of Beyonce’s film direction? The Tree Of Life. When the Blue Ivy Carter was born. How were you not pounding your couch? And pausing on her dewy “natural” makeup? And pausing again at her crazy ass back arch? LOOK at her crazy ass back arch!? It was the best sh-tty documentary I’ve ever seen. Full Story
Mimi declares ownership of Valentine’s Day
Mimi’s already taken over Christmas and now she’s decided that Valentine’s Day must be hers too. Think of every Valentine’s Day cliché and convention. Red? Petals? Balloons? Butterflies? Bubbles? Carriage rides? Please. Full Story
Beyonce’s Life & Dreams
Beyonce Beyonce, everywhere Beyonce. 2013 has been all about Beyonce. Tonight is President Obama’s State of the Union address. Will it be inspired by Beyonce? Here’s Beyonce on the cover of the March issue of Vogue which, gloat alert!, I reported back in December 21 Full Story
Happy French Canadian Chinese New Year
Sorry to interrupt the Grammy coverage but... this can’t wait. Morley just sent it to me and my life will never be the same. As you know, it was Chinese New Year’s Day yesterday. We are in full New Year festival spirits for the next week or so. To celebrate the Year of the Snake, China threw what must have been a sh-tload of money at Celine Dion to have her sing at their state televised gala on Saturday. Full Story

Or, for those of you who don’t speak high school tv series, Adam Brody is dating Leighton Meester... Michelle wrote back: My pop culture heart is exploding with joy. Full Story
