Baby and Bump Obsession Scarlett Johansson’s daughter Rose Let’s talk about the name Scarlett. In 1984, when Johansson was born, it was pretty rare. Like non-existent. Nobody had the name. I know what that’s like. But then, as Scarlett Johansson got more and more famous, and more and more...iconic...funny thing, the name Scarlett By Duana • Sep 05, 2014 10:57 am
Lifestyle Duana Names: American Boy Hi Duana! I love love love all of your name nerd columns! And while I am not currently preggers, I have to ask you to back off the name Wolfgang. I totally want to use it for a little dude (if there ever is one) and don't want By Duana • Sep 04, 2014 09:16 am
TV Updates Allison Williams as Peter Pan I don’t hate it, you guys. I mean, what I remember most about earlier versions of Peter Pan - including the animated one, don’t laugh at me – is that his skin is so fresh and young and tight it’s about to burst off his face. We kind of By Duana • Sep 03, 2014 03:54 pm

Lifestyle Duana Names: Tough Girl Hey Duana. I'm in need of a name. Something for a tough girl, but nothing too butch. I love the look of Zoe, but I hate the sound of it. Looks tough, sounds like a flower. I like the boy name idea (Evan, Dylan maybe?), but nothing too By Duana • Aug 29, 2014 01:36 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Go for Donald Hi Duana, My sister-in-law is pregnant and she and my brother found out they are having boy/girl twins. Their first born girl is Mira. Our last name is traditional Irish/English, hard consonants two syllables. My sister-in-law is leaning toward Charlotte for baby girl, which By Duana • Aug 27, 2014 03:04 pm
Emmy Awards 2014 Sofia Vergara doesn’t get it at the Emmys It’s not like it was a surprise, Sofia Vergara in a tight dress, the same one she’s been wearing for years. But then – it wasn’t seafoam, she looked pretty, and I went on the liveblog about how she seemed like she must get all that body and By Duana • Aug 26, 2014 09:22 am
Emmy Awards 2014 Julia Roberts actually lost at the Emmys You know she's kicking herself for showing up. That is a dress choice and hand-painted highlights and probably a custom-blended lipstick shade, all for Erin Brockovich herself, and then she didn’t win? There are no shots of her holding the trophy with that smile. They By Duana • Aug 26, 2014 08:20 am
Emmy Awards 2014 Lena Dunham, Allison Williams: Emmys Best Girl, Worst Girl Lena Dunham looked awesome. There are all kinds of caveats and I could list them, but they’re personal. I don’t personally like white shirts and I don’t personally love pink. Not the point. She looked awesome because she decided to try on a look and, unlike in By Duana • Aug 26, 2014 07:47 am
Emmy Awards 2014 Sarah Silverman: Best Emmy Win Because she actually, honest-to-goodness didn’t expect it. I like that. She’s such an outlier that she wouldn’t bet on herself, out of a sheer desire not to lose a bet. That’s cool, and so the win and the speech – despite the molecule business – talked By Duana • Aug 26, 2014 07:11 am
Emmy Awards 2014 Lizzy Caplan: Best Unseen Emmys Dress I got the Twitter urging early and often to go look at Lizzy Caplan’s dress. It’s gorgeous, yes. Particularly from the side, where you can see the litheness of the body (not a surprise if you’ve been watching the show – I got very, very familiar with her By Duana • Aug 26, 2014 05:48 am
Emmy Awards 2014 Allison Janney: Best Killing It at the Emmys At the risk of being gross and fangirly, come on now with the Allison Janney. She’s the best, and you know it. She wore a velvet dress and you have not seen one in years but you bought it on her without question. She spoke happily about being a By Duana • Aug 26, 2014 05:31 am
Emmy Awards 2014 Julia Louis-Dreyfus: Best Emmys Acceptance, Again The thing with JLD is she doesn’t pretend she’s not excellent. You know like at a sleepover when you’re 12, and some girl asks another “Truth or dare…(truth, these kinds of girls always pick truth) …what’s it like being so pretty? Like you’re so By Duana • Aug 26, 2014 05:11 am
Emmy Awards 2014 Kerry Washington: Worst Emmys Showgirl It’s not arbitrary, of course. Kerry Washington didn’t just choose the orange because she liked it, or as an homage to Orange Is The New Black, or whatever. She chose it, I assume, as she often does, to counteract all the white and grey and beige that is By Duana • Aug 26, 2014 04:57 am
Emmy Awards 2014 In Defense Of Zooey’s Emmys Hair I landed in New York this morning and it affected my Emmy experience in two ways. One, I got to watch all the American commercials which really do seem more …commercial, somehow…and two, I was SO HOT during. There’s humidity here like there hasn’t been all summer.
