Douchebags Intro for November 2, 2017 Dear Gossips, I love Metric’s song Breathing Underwater.

Dustin Hoffman Intro for July 9, 2013 Dear Gossips, My answer to the question “who’s been your best interview” is probably boring for most. It’s not Angelina Jolie or George Clooney. I always feel like it’s a letdown when I say Dustin Hoffman. Click here to read my previous post about why Hoffman is, By Lainey • Jul 09, 2013 09:13 am
Oscars 2013 Jack, Dustin, DDL, and the Campaign The Academy announced today that Jack Nicholson and Dustin Hoffman will present at the Oscars on Sunday. Some call Nicholson the unofficial mascot of the Oscars. And Hoffman, well, you don’t need me to explain why he’s a legend.

Dustin Hoffman Intro for October 16, 2012 Dear Gossips, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are co-hosting the Golden Globe Awards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Remember how excited you were about Ricky Gervais and he sh-t on your hopes?

Amazingness Soho House/Grey Goose Part 2 If you missed the first part, please scroll down. Seems like Kelly Osbourne is Dave LaChapelle's new muse. Well...she's skinny now, right? Kelly had her hair done Marilyn Monroe styles, in a bedazzled silver teacup dress, like Balenciaga 2 yrs ago. Kelly is thin, small, By Lainey • Mar 05, 2010 04:24 am

Quiveration Two Darlings Obviously, Ryan Gosling. But also Dustin Hoffman. Adore Dustin Hoffman. Dustin Hoffman is the most engaging, the most endearing, the best interview I’ve ever had.
