Vampire Diaries We kissed, now it’s weird. Okay, I was walking my dog this week when it suddenly occurred to me that I feel, somehow, like the fourth of the four coffins is Katherine. I get tired of thinking about who-all the Klaus relatives are, but I can wish, right? So this week was my favourite kind By Duana • Jan 20, 2012 12:45 pm
Katherine Heigl Heigling So you read this headline, right? That Katherine Heigl ‘would love’ to go back to Grey’s Anatomy? It’s become a bit of a sport to bash Heigl for things she says in the press, so let’s take this one apart a bit. The Generous Angle Katherine Heigl By Duana • Jan 19, 2012 01:13 pm
House of Lies Always Be Closing I have a colleague, who used to say to another colleague, usually on a Monday morning, “Hey – did you close?“ This of course referred not to business acumen but whether or not he got the amount of action he was hoping for on the weekend. If they’re not already By Duana • Jan 17, 2012 05:27 pm
Style GG Duana’s Best Dressed: Laura Dern This green dress really moved me onscreen, but in the still pictures, it’s less dynamic. Maybe that’s the point of sequins, that they have to be seen in motion to really kick you in the eyeballs. It’s an interesting dress – both super-sexy and a little bit austere. By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 04:37 pm
Golden Globes 2012 GG Worst Happy Face: Claire Danes Behold, a thesis in two parts: Point the first – the physical. Danes and I are of a similar age. But…flatter myself, sure...I think she looks SO much older than me. Part of that can be attributed to the razor-thin demands that we know in Hollywood – the body-or-face choice By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 02:39 pm
Bad Style GG Best Improv/Worst Cowgirl: Meryl Streep Lainey called me out last night, and she was right, for pussy footing around the fact that The Iron Lady suuuuucked. I mean, not just a little bit. That movie was really, really bad …but you got so distracted by Meryl. There was a moment in the movie where she By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 12:59 pm
BFFs GG Best BFF. Sorry, but it’s true: Tina Fey & Amy Poehler Lainey and I were talking the other night about Daniel Radcliffe, during his SNL hosting. Between the sense of humour he clearly has about himself and the Parade interview he gave recently where he so obviously gets that you can’t really go ‘up’ from Harry Potter (not in notoriety, By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 12:36 pm
Bad Style GG Worst Follow-Through: Zooey Deschanel Okay. So I’m Zooey D. My show’s off the ground, I’m starting to get some blowback about how over the top the cute-geek thing is, and maybe, truth be told, I’m starting to get a little exhausted of it myself. So good. The Globes is a By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 12:16 pm
BFFs GG Best Schtick? Sofia Vergara & Julie Bowen So you saw most of this play out, right? On the carpet, we saw the dresses. Sofia Vergara’s teal – a colour which I already think is kind of alarmingly muted – is tamped down to almost depressing. But it fits her like no other actress’s dress ever does. And By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 11:54 am
Bad Style GG Worst Attempt At A Personality Via Her Dress: Dianna Agron Yeah, so the dress didn’t look good, fundamentally. It looked intricate, and it’s a great colour on many, but the cut-outs didn’t sit flush against her skin, exactly, which is a problem – and I didn’t love the endless tiers in the skirt either. But this is By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 11:33 am
Golden Globes 2012 GG Worst Bridesmaids: Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph Easy. Retract your claws. Read a few lines and then see if maybe you want to punch me. So there they were, Wiig and Rudolph (and McCarthy, yes, but put a pin in that for one second). Bridesmaids is, if not the biggest movie of the year, certainly the biggest By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 11:03 am
Bad Style GG Worst Neckline: Julianna Margulies She knew it wasn’t her night to win. She wasn’t working overtime to make it happen, she left the working off the carpet and the precious airtime to those who needed it. I hear that and I respect it. I bet she had more fun, too, being able By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 10:34 am
Bad Style GG Worst Unseen Dress: Connie Britton It didn’t even occur to me. Isn’t that awful? It wasn’t until Jessica Lange won for American Horror Story that I even thought to look for Connie Britton. I realized she’d probably be there and the show’s a big deal and I sort of saw By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 10:05 am
Amazingness GG Best Swagger: Peter Dinklage First of all, I’ve never had to defend liking such a critically acclaimed show as I do Game Of Thrones. I know my TV tastes usually run to people ranting their feelings at length. But I am addicted to this show and no, I don’t usually watch fantasy, By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 09:49 am
Style GG Cool Enough for School – Emily Blunt Look at that yellow-gold dress. It probably is vintage. And it’s slim, but it still lets her have hips, and look like a woman, and there was no note of who she hung out with (although the answer is ‘with Rogen’ if she’s anything like I think she By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 09:17 am
Vampire Diaries You Have To Be The Better Villain Vampire Diaries Season 3 Episode 11 recap I’m actually going to pretend this was the new season’s return. It was so great and had this authentic Vampire Diaries mix of real danger, authentic teenage longing, and actual animalistic terror. Stuff felt real, you know? Elena sometimes doesn’t By Duana • Jan 13, 2012 02:20 pm
