Lifestyle Ezra Miller & Emma Watson are just so eccentric It’s not that I mind either outfit on its own. In fact, I would wear everything Emma has on in a heartbeat.

Style Selena Gomez: on having a blast (and is Emma Watson?) I never went backpacking in Europe. It was the preferred fantasy in my high school class – go to Europe where there’s “culture” - but my parents had me over a barrel with the twin realities of I had already been to Europe (with them, as if that counts), and By Duana • Sep 06, 2012 12:59 pm
Homeland “I Can’t Help But Feel I’m Missing Something” Homeland TurboWatch Episodes 3 and 4 Oh, man, Carrie Matheson, I like you maybe too much. Maybe there’s something about that name, “Carrie”, that makes fictional televised bearers of it somehow endearing, to the point where you get so lost in the woman that the show she’s in By Duana • Sep 04, 2012 12:50 pm
Hook Ups Luke ‘n’ Jennie? My reactions, in order, were as follows: I got excited, then rolled my eyes, then got really warm and happy in my stomach, and then went to price out a pair of 3-hole docs that the kids are apparently wearing again.

The Newsroom “Pussy-Assed Coward-Ass Pussified Pussies” The Newsroom Season 1 Episode 10 recap How is it that a Season Finale that involves, among other things, a suicide and a man with life-threatening internal bleeding was so slow and boring? I was never worried about Will, because they told me he was going to be fine in By Duana • Aug 27, 2012 01:13 pm
Famewhores Lauren Conrad on books, portion control, and editing I love people’s inexplicable celebrity follows. They’re not crushes, they may not even be people you like, but you follow them without realizing you’re doing it, spit out their resume without thinking every time someone idly wonders “whatever happened to”, and it inevitably proves to be embarrassing… By Duana • Aug 24, 2012 12:43 pm
The Newsroom Selfless Journalists. Heh. The Newsroom Season 1 Episode 9 Dear Mackenzie, How are ya? Good? Good. Yeah, yeah, busy. No, I know. I know. You? Oh…really? Well. I kind of heard something about that. Yeah… You were screaming in the middle of the Newsroom, right? Something about Jesus avenging you against having By Duana • Aug 20, 2012 12:24 pm
Bad Style The Kitten Heel Controversy (Lainey: I was shouted at yesterday by tall people in response to this article about Nicole Kidman’s f-cking kitten heels -- I am not qualified to hate them because I am short.

Cheating Loins Spin Again - on Kristen Stewart, Lisa Ling When my friend called the other day to talk, she waited until I was fully primed in the conversation before dropping a truly delicious story on me that unfortunately would negate the friendship if I reprinted it here.

Amazingness Trick or Treat? Do you follow Joshua Malina on Twitter? (Click here for his account) I don’t know why not, if you don’t. He might be the single best “just like us” celeb on that whole thing. Malina’s Twitter breaks down to about 65% tweets about how he’s aware By Duana • Aug 14, 2012 11:47 am
The Newsroom Eating Vegetables, Part 1 The Newsroom Season 1 Episode 8 recap This was the line that struck me, last night, in what was easily the best episode of The Newsroom so far.

Aaron Sorkin May 2, 2011 The Newsroom Season 1 Episode 7 recap Do you remember this? I remember. I remember the weirdness of this. The announcement of the death of Bin Laden was so strange. It felt odd, to me, to be cheering about a military operation. Not in the “every life is a life” By Duana • Aug 06, 2012 11:21 am
The Newsroom How Are You Still Working Here? The Newsroom Season 1 Episode 6 recap The following are some of the mistakes made by women in this episode: Mixing up Georgia the state and Georgia the country.

Kristen Stewart Kristen Stewart. Scripted Slut. I’m not naïve. I know that when a fairytale Hollywood relationship is broken, fans think they know those people. They want – need - an explanation. Remember Justin’s moves, singing about Britney’s infidelity in song? Remember Julia Roberts leaving Kiefer Sutherland at the altar? For that matter, remember By Duana • Jul 26, 2012 02:27 pm
The Newsroom The Title Is “Amen” The Newsroom Season 1 Episode 5 I’m never that far from The Newsroom. That’s something that felt giddy and gossipy a couple of weeks ago that now feels tiresome. Because nothing is different. The show is still way out of its depth when it comes to human beings By Duana • Jul 23, 2012 12:07 pm
