Oscars 2024 A Sheer Roundup I HATE saying this, but I think my biggest disappointment of the night was Lily Gladstone. She’s had SUCH a good red carpet run ever since the Cannes premiere of Killers of the Flower Moon last year, I had high hopes for her first trip to the Met Gala. By Sarah • May 07, 2024 08:31 am
Gorgessity Fo Shiz and Lori Harvey There was a Chanel fine jewellery party last night in New York that brought out a lot of celebrities, including Lori Harvey – so this one is for Jacek who has barely slept since Monday because we’re still struggling after our dog Barney’s surgery.
