Golden Globes 2018 Nicole Kidman’s Golden Globe for Big Little Lies What’s the expression for something you both like and dislike about yourself? I have this persistent tendency towards optimism. It’s surprising because I’m also a frequently cranky and a know-it-all, but weird annoying positivity shows up at the weirdest times. Right now I feel like I should By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 03:04 pm
Golden Globes 2018 Saoirse Ronan Wins for Lady Bird and Greta Let’s get my gripes out of the way off the top. I didn’t hear anyone mispronounce Saoirse Ronan’s name last night, but I did catch an interview on the NBC Red Carpet where they goggled, “Is it true? Was the Prom in the movie your very first By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 02:28 pm
Golden Globes 2018 Gal Gadot & The Rock Globes Love I started to write this article and Word quit on me twice in succession. While I was praying for it to right itself, and determined not to lose momentum, I went online to see if I could find the clip of Gal Gadot and Dwayne The Rock Johnson presenting tonight… By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 01:27 pm
Golden Globes 2018 Elisabeth Moss: Globes Good Girl It’s an ironic title, given the subject matter of The Handmaid’s Tale and the fact that social media keeps that dangling-cigarette-and-sunglasses shot of Peggy Olsen sharply in all our minds. But when Elisabeth Moss won last night and ran up onstage looking delighted, and then earnestly read the By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 12:24 pm
Golden Globes 2018 Kerry Washington’s Secret Red Carpet Skill Unpopular opinion ahead – Kerry Washington does not get the credit she deserves. Yes, she’s the lead on an incredibly successful show, a wealthy actress with beauty privilege who is, as Lainey once pointed out to me, the queen of endorsement campaigns. I’m not saying she’s suffering. But By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 11:47 am
Golden Globes 2018 Michelle Williams’ Red Carpet Star Turn I know ‘star turn’ is a kind of great-auntly expression for a role that turns someone into a star, but I’m being much more literal about it. I haven’t stopped thinking all night about a turn Michelle Williams executed in a conversation that was just about surgical. Remember By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 10:37 am
Golden Globes 2018 Allison Janney’s Next Move I would never write anything uncharitable about Allison Janney. It’s unthinkable. But since I began writing this article there have been three rolling blackouts at my house, which is not usual at 5 AM so I have to wonder if I should be doing this at all. But for By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 10:00 am
Golden Globes 2018 Margot Robbie – She, Tonya I saw I, Tonya with Lainey the week before Christmas. It is not hyperbole to say I have thought about it in some way every day since then. This has to have been Margot Robbie’s intent. She wasn’t just the star, she was a producer. She knew this By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 08:55 am
Golden Globes 2018 Aziz Ansari’s speech was short I really loved Master of None Season 2. I almost didn’t watch it, given that I found Season 1 fine, funny at times but not unmissable. Season 2 is a different story. There’s an ambitious arc, there’s Italy, there’s episodes that are doing ambitious things, including By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 08:10 am
Golden Globes 2018 Rachel Brosnahan and AS-P’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel I don’t know what quality about the Hollywood Foreign Press makes them so wacky in so many well-documented ways, yet also allows them to consistently reward otherwise-overlooked or out there television. They love My Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. They love Jane The Virgin. They loved The Affair before anyone else was By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 07:15 am
Good for Gossip Hugh Grant, Globes ‘Paddington’ Presenter I am fond of hyperbole but I am not exaggerating when I tell you that I cried laughing when Seth introduced ‘from Divorce, Sarah Jessica Parker, and from Paddington Bear 2, Hugh Grant!’ It was a belated Christmas present I didn’t know I needed. First of all, I am By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 05:45 am
Golden Globes 2018 Hong Chau at the Golden Globes Let us now have a summary of Hong Chau’s night at the Golden Globes, shall we? She was nominated for her role in Alexander Payne’s Downsizing, which is kind of notable on its own, because the movie is…not considered to be that great. As in 51% ‘Rotten’ By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 04:06 am
Golden Globes 2018 Seth Meyers hosts Golden Globes, with Assists Let’s be real here – the Golden Globes hosting gig is 92% the opening monologue, because, as everyone tweets at 9:42pm ET, you forget that there was a host at all. The exception was in the Amy & Tina years, and we’ll get to those in a second. By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 02:47 am
Lifestyle Duana Names: Because Of Course You Did* Hi Duana, When we got pregnant with our first boy, and then our second, the naming process was quite easy on both occasions and went a little something like this: (i) I suggested my top boy name to my husband; (ii) he really liked it; (iii) over the next several By Duana • Jan 05, 2018 03:19 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Jack (Jackie? Jacqueline?) Of All Names… Hi Duana, I absolutely love your column and baby name advice - if I ever have any baby name questions your column will be the first place I go! This, however, is not about any future children. This is about my, and my fiancé's, married names. Here is By Duana • Jan 03, 2018 04:37 pm
Sarah Silverman Sarah Silverman Is Probably Better Than Me Happy New Year! You guys, I’m loving the optimism I’m seeing online. Obviously Time’s Up has been a real jolt of positivity, but even the New Year memes are all about how things have got to look up this year. I’m into it. In fact, I’ By Duana • Jan 02, 2018 11:50 am
