Dear Gossips,
Even though the Raptors’ Terrence Ross was eventually crowned the NBA Slam Dunk Champion, the best part of All Star Saturday Night had to be the Shaq/Charles Barkley/Kenny Smith commentary. If only those three could call the play-by-play at the Oscars. Get rid of the interviews. No more Giuliana Rancic calling people “sweetie”. (Please stop her from calling people “sweetie”.) Instead, just run the b-roll of the arrivals with those three free-styling on audio: We All Win.
It’s Oscar Week! Academy members have until tomorrow at 5pm to submit their ballots. You have until Saturday to submit yours for our Annual Contest sponsored by VH Steamers. It’s $5,000 on the line AND a Prada bag! Click here to enter and while the tiebreaker goes to the person who predicts the most correct categories earliest, the race seems to be changing shape every day, with Silver Linings supposedly surging and Ang Lee perhaps a dark horse for director. Do you wait, or have you already decided? Good luck!
Also this week...
Catherine Cambridge will appear in public, her first official appearance in a long time, and, of course, accompanied by the Royal Bump. Let there be no gross belly cupping.
Yours in gossip,
Lainey
