Dear Gossips,
We had our general election here in Canada last night. So let’s stay Canadian in this space today with a beloved Canadian who generally keeps a low profile, Rachel McAdams. She was seen yesterday doing some shopping in LA. Read Full Intro
What Else?
There are two things about this Patti LuPone interview that I love: the first is that she called Andrew Lloyd Webber a “sad sack” because that’s such a specific insult, you don’t just hurl it around randomly; it applies to a specific type of person. Full Story

Law Roach, whose work has given us so much life the last few years, was named InStyle’s Stylist of the Year at last night’s InStyle Awards. Zendaya was there to present to him. And, well, with their partnership, he could win Stylist of the Year every year. You’ve seen what they’ve created together. Full Story

Ten years after Zombieland was a sleeper hit, the gang reunites for a sequel to mixed results. In the decade since Zombieland, its stars have gone onto greater and greater success. Jesse Eisenberg became an Oscar nominee, Woody Harrelson added two more Oscar nominations to his collection, and Emma Stone won an Oscar. Full Story

I hope I’m not giving anything away for our Australian readers, but this has been on Instagram for 24 hours so I assume it’s OK. Cody Simpson won The Masked Singer Australia and Lindsay Lohan said she guessed correctly. (Is that true? Can I get a confirmation on that from someone who watched the show?) This Tanya Hennessy interview (she is wonderful – am I a dumbass for not knowing this?) is so good. Full Story
Watch Watchmen for Regina King (at first)

A groundbreaking graphic novel in the 1980s, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ Watchmen remains today one of the most influential pieces of 20th century speculative fiction. A deconstruction of superhero comics and the geopolitics of the Cold War, Watchmen is a kind of adaptation holy grail. Its rich iconography and story of broken and twisted superheroes makes it a prime cinematic target, but the single adaptation to date is a mixed bag, at best; Zack Snyder’s 2009 film kinda-sorta works, but changes to the ending of the story are still being debated a decade later.

Channel 4 in the UK aired a documentary last night about Prince Andrew’s friendship with dead rapist pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. It was a 12 year relationship and they travelled in style from Europe to the Caribbean to the US, surrounded by girls, many of whom were underage. Andrew has always insisted he did nothing wrong.

Yesterday, Miley Cyrus made headlines after hosting an Instagram Live with her new boyfriend/roommate(?), Cody Simpson. Lainey wrote last week that the pair are unafraid of showing their lust, and this Livestream was no different Full Story

As expected, after Harry & Meghan: An African Journey aired on ITV in the UK on Sunday night, during which Meghan Markle said that it’s been a struggle to cope with the relentless attack of the British tabloids and Prince Harry revealed that worrying about his wife and child and their safety was affecting his mental health and that he and his brother, Prince William, were on “different paths” right now, all the focus yesterday was on the brothers’ relationship and the perceived deepening of their rift.

TROS trailer 2
The final trailer for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker dropped last night, and I have a very serious question: What if the movie doesn’t live up to this trailer? This is a GREAT trailer. It’s hitting all the right notes—thrilling, mysterious, nostalgic (Carrie!), exciting, gorgeous visuals. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
Jennifer Lawrence married Cooke Maroney in Rhode Island this weekend. Many, if not most, of the expected celebrity guests were there: Emma Stone, Adele, Amy Schumer, Kris Jenner, and some who weren’t on the prediction list, like Sienna Miller, Cameron Diaz, Nicole Richie, and Ashley Olsen.
