Lifestyle Duana Names: I Saw The Sign…Right? Help! We're having our first, a baby girl at the end of January and for a name we are stumped! I keep waiting for a sign or something to fall upon us which is just perfect, but obviously that hasn't happened yet. I can't By Duana • Jan 11, 2017 04:56 pm
Golden Globes 2017 Miss Golden Globe(s) and their Introducer So tell the truth. If the Miss Golden Globe(s) hadn’t been introduced, would you have known whose progeny they were? I wouldn’t at all, but apparently some of the internet thinks they’re very easily identifiable? It’s kind of a ridiculous job, but they did fine, By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 04:08 pm
Bad Style Natalie Portman: Globes Worst Dressed (Duana) Natalie Portman didn’t make an appearance last night. That is, sometimes nominees are involved in other projects or sketches so you see them in a different capacity than just sitting in their seats, waiting…but that didn’t happen tonight, and I wonder how she feels about it. Maybe, By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 03:37 pm
Style Emma Stone: Globes Best Dressed (Duana) Somewhere in between the mass sentiment ‘oh please, she’s wearing a dress with STARS on it, how on the nose, we get it’ and her apparently answering the question ‘what are you wearing’ with ‘a dress with stars on it’, I feel like we got the mistaken impression that By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 03:20 pm
Golden Globes 2017 Ryan Gosling: Golden Globe forever meme What do you think it will be? Which phrase will be emblazoned on the next round of Ryan Gosling memes, like the cheap valentines we used to pass out to one another in grade school? My vote is for “While I was singing and dancing…my lady was raising our By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 03:00 pm
Golden Globes 2017 Brie Larson: Golden Globes Integrity I don’t like Brie Larson’s snoozy column dress. I also didn’t like her makeup. I actually find she has kind of a funny face in that it’s a bit anonymous. She can disappear all of a sudden and almost be unrecognizable. Probably a great skill for By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 02:31 pm
Golden Globes 2017 Meryl Streep: Best Globes Speech Do you think she really did lose her voice? Or do you think she knew her speech would be that much more effective if the room was pin-drop silent so everyone could listen to her? Do you think that Meryl Streep had to look up which of her fellow nominees By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 01:58 pm
Golden Globes 2017 Viola Davis: Golden Globes MVP You know what I mean by MVP, right? There are others who will get the label ‘best dressed’ (though for me, this yellow column came very close. Davis always does colours but this was the best and it’s only January!) and there are others who were arguably ‘bigger’ winners, By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 01:32 pm
Golden Globes 2017 Sarah Jessica Parker: Worst Best Humility at the Globes No, Sarah Jessica Parker did not style her hair in honour of Carrie Fisher. Of course she didn’t. On a personal level, she thinks of herself as too creative to do a straight homage like that, is my personal opinion, and she wouldn’t want to be tied to By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 01:03 pm
Keith Urban Nicole Kidman: Best Literary Homage at the Globes Okay, you can yell at me. Scream all you want, but I do not hate this! I said early on, on our group text, that she was 60% of the way to becoming Miss Havisham, and I then heard it on Twitter, too. This look is McQueen and it’s By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 12:26 pm
Milo Ventimiglia Mandy Moore’s Golden Globes Family Affair Don’t call it a comeback. Arguably the very first article I ever wrote for LaineyGossip, on a train, no less, was about why people should love Mandy Moore (more). Then there were the dark years, and Ryan Adams, and now the promotional ads for This Is Us that ran By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 10:52 am
Hair Janelle Monae: Best Golden Globes Hair I didn’t even know we were doing ‘best hair’ this year, but it turned out that there had to be a way to acknowledge certain looks – please adore this woman’s hair. Please. It is perfect. It’s so perfect that her dress can obviously only be less so. By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 09:05 am
Golden Globes 2017 Keri Russell: Best Golden Globes clarity Do not come crying to me. The Americans is never going to win any awards, and then you guys are going to discover it like two years after it’s cancelled, and you’re going to try to tell me all about how amazing it is, and how it’s By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 07:59 am
Golden Globes 2017 Sarah Paulson: Golden Globes Best Friend Evvverybody loves Sarah Paulson. You noticed? I mean, there’s no reason not to love her. She’s awesome and a great actress, and she has been one of my red carpet favourites for the last couple of years – this Marc Jacobs isn’t my favourite thing she’s worn, By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 06:05 am
Golden Globes 2017 Kristen Bell: Globes Best sternum dress I never thought that Kristen Bell would remind me of my mom, but here we are. Actually my mom is a tiny blonde person not unlike Kristen Bell, but that’s not why – it’s that thing that moms say, that you don’t listen to when you’re young, By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 05:17 am
Golden Globes 2017 John Legend & Chrissy Teigen: Best Globe Friends You Almost Already Have You can watch a show like this and wonder if you are just going along with something because it’s popular. You can wonder, as I saw a lot of people do, whether you really liked La La Land or just fell into some populist trap or what. But there By Duana • Jan 09, 2017 03:09 am
