Jake Gyllenhaal Jakey’s been so quiet Very low profile the last few months, right? Maybe even all of last year after Source Code came out. Here’s Jakey with some friends after sushi yesterday in Hollywood looking like he hasn’t worked in a while. I’m not saying that to be a bitch...yet. I’ By Lainey • Jan 05, 2012 01:29 pm
Girlcrushes Love for Kristen Wiig and defending Bridesmaids They’re considering a Bridesmaids sequel without Kristen Wiig. This is what almost everyone was focusing on yesterday. The detail that gets lost in that headline though is that Kristen Wiig didn’t want to do it. And, well, don’t you love her for that? When asked about making By Lainey • Jan 05, 2012 11:40 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Zoe’s blue jeans Bright blue. Not sure if I’ve ever mentioned before but I have a jeans problem. I LOVE jeans. I don’t have a toaster or a cheese grater or, for that matter, many of what most of you would probably consider to be regular kitchen items, but I do By Lainey • Jan 05, 2012 10:34 am
Girly Throw Downs He went with a model While JLo decided to celebrate her release from marriage by slumming it with a backup dancer who, on his best day, and I am being generous, is no more than a 5.5, Marc Anthony went with a model.

Intro for January 5, 2012 Dear Gossips, January 4th came and went. No announcement about Beyonce’s Little Rider which is when I initially thought she and Jay would choreograph its arrival, so that all three of them could share their favourite #4 birthdays.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Rooney’s proportions Of everything she’s shown on the Dragon Tattoo Girl promotional tour, crazily enough, this is my favourite. I like the proportions. There’s something very pleasing to the eye about the short top, her midsection, and the length of the skirt. Also, Daniel Craig is wearing the sh-t By Lainey • Jan 05, 2012 09:14 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: the Iron Lady accessorises The word on The Iron Lady is that it’s an uneven movie but Meryl’s performance is awesome.

Bad Style Do you believe in crew neck? Colin Farrell was papped on the set of Seven Psychopaths yesterday, both times wearing a v-neck. The dude clearly does not believe in a crew neck. Like, ever.

Amazingness Mimi’s kidney failure Here’s a photo Mariah Carey posted on her Twitter and her website: her husband Nick Cannon has been hospitalised for “mild kidney failure”.

Movie Reviews and Previews David Fincher movies I was quick to jump on the US Girl With The Dragon Tattoo movie bandwagon after the first trailers were released. I was ready to love it. To be super impressed. To fangirl over a version that I initially labelled unnecessary. Then I saw it. Dragon Tattoo Girl For America By Lainey • Jan 04, 2012 11:37 am

Intro for January 4, 2012 Dear Gossips, Happy New Year. The Artist James Franco has written his first novel.
