Music Justin Bieber ft. Diane Keaton Justin Bieber in a movie with Diane Keaton would be weird casting news. Diane Keaton appearing in one of Bieber’s music videos is even weirder… but here we are.

Relationship Assumption Deconstructing ‘Will Smith’ and His ‘Unconventional’ Marriage Will Smith looks strikingly older on the cover of GQ, right? Or maybe he’s just really tired.

The profile’s titled Introducing the Real Will Smith and the real Will is evidently By Cody • Sep 28, 2021 11:44 am
Music Lil Nas X: Artist or Meme? It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of Lil Nas X. With every moment he’s giving Satan a lap dance or making out with his backup dancer at the BET Awards or doing a People Magazine pregnancy photo shoot, I’ve grown to love him more By Cody • Sep 21, 2021 12:46 pm
Met Gala 2021 Billie Eilish: Best Movie Star at the Met Gala When you arrive to the Met Gala as a co-chair, we’re more critical of your adherence to the theme and there’s a sense of proving why you deserved to be on the committee. It’s definitely all eyes on you. You were one of the earliest confirmed attendees, By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 01:58 pm
Met Gala 2021 Yara, Halle, Regina, Ciara, and Lili: The Met Gala Assignment I know every year we complain about celebrities ignoring the theme in favour of looking “pretty” or designers sticking to their style instead of being inspired or challenged by the theme, but this year felt particularly… off. Maybe some teams didn’t make any serious plans until last minute, not By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 01:45 pm
Met Gala 2021 Met Gala Couples: Shawmila, Jailey, and… Rititi? Am I the only one who thought Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello’s MET Gala looks were a complete miss? They were both dressed by Michael Kors, with Camila channeling a Studio 54 vibe. I like the colour and disco falls under the theme, but I don’t think the By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 10:56 am
Met Gala 2021 Lil Nas X, Dan Levy & More: (Some) Met Gala Men Last night didn’t deliver the parade of inspiring men's fashion that I like to see from the Met Gala. This is supposed to be the one carpet where more conservative guys feel a freedom to take a risk. Unfortunately there were few risks taken this year, but By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 09:52 am
Met Gala 2021 Leylah, Emma, Felix, Serena, and Naomi: Tennis at the Met Gala We know the behind-the-scenes queen (because Rihanna is the real queen) of the Met Gala, Anna Wintour, loves tennis, but the tennis contingent at this year’s gala was extra intense, starting with one player from Canada, whose star power expanded beyond those who follow tennis last week when she By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 09:06 am
Cara Delevingne Cara, AOC, Amanda, and Nikkie: Met Gala Messages When I heard the Met Gala theme for this year was “In America” I knew people were going to get political, and it’s right there in the Costume Institute’s description of the exhibit: “a modern vocabulary of American fashion based on its expressive qualities”. Cara Delevingne arrived at By Cody • Sep 14, 2021 08:36 am
Equality Issues Lil Nas X: Carpet Shade and a Big Win Is the art of the live red carpet interview completely lost? Watching MTV’s pre-show Sunday evening was often more awkward than enjoyable. Whatever happened to looking at the artist while you ask the question? The quick chats with celebrity arrivals left a lot to be desired. I think it’ By Cody • Sep 13, 2021 01:24 pm
Music Olivia Rodrigo Lends VMAs Some 'It Girl’ Power Olivia Rodrigo showed up the the VMAs in a dress older than she is. Her strapless mermaid gown is from Atelier Versace’s Spring/Summer 2001 Haute Couture collection. I love this girl’s style. Everything is a reference the 90s or early aughts. There’s nothing modern about an By Cody • Sep 13, 2021 11:51 am
Music Chloe Crushes Solo Debut at VMAs Beyoncé proteges Chloe x Halle have quickly proven themselves on raw talent, collecting five Grammy nominations across two albums, while gracing the small screen on the Yara Shahidi-led Grown-ish for the last four seasons.

Music Janet Jackson Documents 40 Years in ‘Control’ Who is the Queen of Pop? It’s the great debate of our time, or at least of last week after Lizzo summoned the ire of Madonna fans around the world when she bestowed the label on one Miss Janet Jackson.

Baby and Bump Obsession Nicki & Rihanna Double Date Can we talk about the royal rendezvous that was Nicki Minaj and Rihanna hanging out?
