Dear Gossips,
Every Saturday night, Tina Fey keeps rocking my world. Another brilliant performance parodying Palin – did you watch?
That Tina was excellent is no surprise.
The surprise however was Anne Hathaway. Anne Hathaway is a f&cking rock star. She killed it. She totally killed it. From her self-skewering opening monologue to her exuberant farewell, during which she pronounced that it was the best week of her life, Anne Hathaway hosted one of the strongest episodes of Saturday Night Live in a long, long time.
EVERY skit was funny. EVERY skit with her in it was delightful. She was silly, she was game for anything, and the girl can act.
Suddenly I love her. And now there is no question: Lorne will ask her back. To be an SNL repeat is a huge honour. You know Lorne loves my Gwynnie too, right?
And in other New York news…
Yes. Them.
The Brangelunatics are euphoric today because their idols gave them what they wanted.
Pitt Porn.
We’re all a little giddy this morning from the Pitt Porn.
Sunday smut! Enjoy!

Dear Gossips,
My husband knows the way to my heart: celebrating 35 with my closest friends overnight at a casino resort.
Please.
It doesn’t get much better.
Unless it’s Tina Fey as Sarah Palin and what’s even more incredible is that they barely, BARELY had to write a script for it…except maybe the part about the “value meal”. Snort. See below if you missed it.
Tina, will you be my friend?
It’s Monday – am blogging all day. Check back often!
Yours in gossip,

PS. You think Shelfy Biel would ever do like Scarlett Johansson and pull off a wedding in the wilderness with no leaks and worst still…no paps? Unthinkable.
It’s been too long! Marion Cotillard, my French love, at the Madonna concert last weekend and even better… she’s with Guillaume! They’re still together! Squeeeeee! Marion has been working on Nine in London with Daniel Day Lewis, Kate Hudson, Penelope Cruz, Fergie, and Granny Freeze. Full Story
Here’s a novel idea: write before you can act. Tina Fey became famous for her brain and her sense of humour stands today as the most respected woman in the business. Do parent pimps look to Tina Fey for inspiration? Do they enroll their kids in creative writing instead of Star Search? Doubtful. Full Story
Duana and I disagree on many things – Michael Phelps, her hair, my hair, Anne Hathaway – but we are most diametrically opposed on the subject of Natalie Portman. Duey can’t bear Natalie Portman. I, on the other hand, worship Natalie Portman. Here she is, at various engagements during the Venice Film Festival, looking impossibly beautiful and natural and effortless, dressed down or dressed up. Full Story
Christian Bale and my Maggie G, in Tokyo to promote The Dark Knight, resplendent in orange. TDK is on pace to break every record known to Shiloh, and you bet your boob job all the Hello Kitties will help it get there. Cartoons, capes, and anything American…they will wait in line for a week. As a result of its astounding box office, TDK is now being bandied about as a potential contender for Best Picture. Full Story
With the sensational style And I can go on and on for like a mileA minute, I get in it Like a car and drive Remember Special Ed? What happened to Special Ed? This is Maggie Gyllenhaal at Letterman last night, every inch perfection. Like old school and new school rolled together, all class and cool, chic but relatable – what’s not to love about Maggie G? And don’t tell me it’s because she doesn’t look like Jennifer Aniston. Full Story
Emmy nominations. 30 Rock led the way with 17 nods including Outstanding Comedy Series, Lead Actress and Lead Actor. Here she is last month with her Peabody Award. Tina Fey. That’s all. Full Story
Yesterday was supposed to be the last day of shooting on Labour Pains. Somehow Lindsay Lohan made it through an entire production without a bout of exhaustion, without a visit to the hospital, without prompting a stern letter from an executive producer blasting her poor work ethic. Could it be the loving support of Samantha Ronson? Hottest couple of the summer! Check out SamRo blowing Lilo a kiss goodbye yesterday leaving her lover to work on set. Full Story
Thank Xenu that the GMD would not give his permission. Thank Xenu he’s a f&cking idiot. Because The Dark Knight with Katie Holmes in it would not have been the same film. Maggie Gyllenhaal is so much better. Maggie has a brain. Maggie also has style… This is my Maggie with her Peter last night looking so lovely, the loveliest shoulders, the loveliest neck, the loveliest un-generic face, and such a lovely dress. Full Story
Tina Fey. This is Tina last night at the opening of Damn Yankees. We need more Tina to balance out the twats. Million dollar question: Would you suffer through friendship with the sugar-raping Rossum in exchange for friendship with the genius that is Tina Fey? Photos from Wenn.com... Full Story
First photos of Mandy Moore in New York after breaking up with that f&cking loser Ryan Adams. As you can see, on the outside anyway, Mandy does not seem to be suffering too badly from their split. Which is a good thing. Contrived pseudo artists are so unworthy of tears. Remember in high school when it was cool to date a musician so you could say that your boyfriend was “in a band”? This is the only way a punk poseur like Ryan Adams can get a girl. Full Story
She takes public transportation, or bikes to meetings if possible, she lives way, way, way outside of Hollywood, one of the most sought after actresses in Hollywood according to the Wall Street Journal... Full Story
Alicia Keys was in New York last night at the screening of We Are Together, a documentary about her trip to South Africa working with orphans in 2006. LOVE her. So much. She said the experience has led her to consider adoption, like Angelina Jolie: "I've always loved kids. Kids are so important. Full Story
Nicole Richie headed to a meeting yesterday in skinny jeans and very, very high heels. Sigh. I love her. And lately I seem to be obsessed with her nose. Nicole Richie has a great nose. I have a hawk nose. I wish I could replace my hawk nose with Nicole’s nose. But work only begets more work. And pretty soon I’d look like Nicole…but Kidman. Full Story
And total f&cking GORGESSITY!!! Please. Who could ever, ever compare to this? Vanity Fair has just posted their new cover and the article and accompanying photo shoot video is coming Monday. For her I would. I would let her hickey me all over. Full Story
I loved Maria Full of Grace. Have you seen it? Catalina Sandino Moreno was nominated for an Oscar for that role. And deservedly so. I wish I had a name like Catalina Sandino Moreno. I wish I looked like Catalina Sandino Moreno. There’s a great story about her on a red carpet. Donovan was shooting it and when the tapes came back, there was like a full on 5 minutes of b-roll just of Catalina Sandino Moreno standing there posing. Full Story
I’m at the Martinez right now writing this, 6 or 7 feet away from Julianne Moore who is sitting down for roundtable interviews for Blindness. Have to restrain myself from running over to hug her. She’s been at it for 3 hours, surrounded by a large number of journalists questioning and pushing and she has been gracious and sweet and endearing and forthcoming the whole time. Full Story
Natalie Portman last night at the gala. You think she’s beautiful in pictures? Well in person it’s even more. It’s not just the face – the dress of course was perfection – but it’s Natalie as a package. The way she moves, the way she walks, the way she holds herself… She is little, delicate, so graceful, an effortless mix of vulnerable but strong, and confident – confidence that comes from growth and experience rather than privilege … unlike my Gwyneth, for example. Full Story
Hilary Swank has two Oscars. TWO. And Julianne Moore has zero. WTF? Attached – Julianne walking in NYC on Tuesday presumably before heading to Cannes where her film Blindness will open the festival tonight. There is a LOT of hype around this movie. Those who’ve screened it can’t stop talking about it and the buzz is building already, not only for Julianne but also for the screenwriter and co-star Don McKellar … who is Canadian. Full Story
