Royals A weekend in Kate Jacek and I were in London on Remembrance Day. We walked by the Field of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey. There are so many poppies. Too many poppies. It’s... quite an arresting visual. For the Royal Family this was a significant weekend as the symbols of a nation to lead By Lainey • Nov 14, 2011 09:43 am
Girlcrushes Intro for November 14, 2011 Dear Gossips, I keep loving Emma Stone more and more. So much that I almost want her to do something medium annoying, just to manage expectations, like a pause in her ascent, to prevent the hasty and inevitable opposite that happens to all of them who become too popular, too By Lainey • Nov 14, 2011 09:07 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: How pretty is Pink!?! With husband Carey Hart and their baby Willow Sage at the premiere of Happy Feet Two yesterday. They all look great, right? Especially Pink in a well cut jacket with trousers that hang perfectly just so on top of her open toe booties. And it’s a good, accessible look By Lainey • Nov 14, 2011 09:00 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Mandy Moore’s red shoes See what I mean about those supposed Hollywood Style Awards? No disrespect to Mandy Moore but she’s not exactly Kristen Stewart. Andrea Riseborough was the biggest name there, and people still haven’t seen her breakout movie yet. Which tells you something about this event. Anyway, Mandy’s kept By Lainey • Nov 14, 2011 08:56 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Andrea Riseborough needs a proper stylist I keep telling you that Andrea Riseborough who plays Wallis Simpson in Madonna’s W.E. is exquisite but I don’t blame you if you don’t believe me because her carpet appearances are so maddeningly inconsistent, it’s hard to see her potential if you’ve not seen By Lainey • Nov 14, 2011 08:52 am
Intro for November 11, 2011 Dear Gossips, November in London to me for the last few years has always been about Harry Potter. And today is the DVD release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I was here last year for the beginning of the end. Now that the end is passed, it’s By Lainey • Nov 12, 2011 12:04 am
Gwyneth Paltrow GOOP copies Sasha Here’s Gwyneth Paltrow at the Bambi Awards today in Germany. I am writing this on the super-rush heading to the airport so I have no idea what she’s doing there, only that she’s wearing a sparkly green dress that shows off some chest bones and doesn’ By Lainey • Nov 10, 2011 03:40 pm
Maple Leaf Blake and Ryan: moving in together? Apparently Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds went apartment hunting together in New York. Page Six was all over it. Already? He was probably looking for a place now that he can’t live with Scarlett Johansson in the city anymore and she came along to hold his hand. And conveniently By Lainey • Nov 10, 2011 03:04 pm
Ethan Hawke Namechecking Ginsberg No, actually, I’m not referring to James Franco although I don’t blame you for assuming that the pretension belongs to him since, well, obviously. And there is actually a line in this article that reads: (Ethan Hawke is) James Franco minus the meta-smirk. Here’s Hawke on By Lainey • Nov 10, 2011 02:04 pm
Dumbass Are you getting enough air in that big ass trailer??? Ashton Kutcher just updated his Twitter. Rather, he linked from his Twitter to a long ass post explaining himself, more like defending himself, more like bitching about the people who criticised him for defending, at first, Joe Paterno, and then recanting, and then pouting off into the night. I don’ By Lainey • Nov 10, 2011 01:34 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Zooey Deschanel’s stripes On the set of New Girl yesterday. I love stripes. I love these stripes on Zooey Deschanel. So flattering. And on top of such a risky, little pair of shorts too. There’s something very old Hollywood about this look. Like, I could picture Marilyn Monroe in a variation of By Lainey • Nov 10, 2011 01:26 pm
Douchebags Is this what you’re staying for? You’ve heard about this mess at Penn State? Click here for the long well, researched version. Click here for the celebrity reading level edition specifically as it relates to Ashton Kutcher. In short, he tweeted support for a man who has been fired for his suspected involvement in the By Lainey • Nov 10, 2011 12:52 pm
Girly Throw Downs Uh, yeah Daniel Craig was on the cover of Entertainment Weekly in the summer for Cowboys & Aliens and his pants action was piss poor. Click here for a refresher. This time it’s for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. MUCH better. As we build towards the film’s release, we By Lainey • Nov 10, 2011 12:19 pm
Lifestyle Carpet & Candids: LeAnn Rimes and a dinosaur tail I suppose this is where you’d find a dress so busy – at the Country Music Association Awards. It’s really too busy to belong in the spirit of good taste. I don’t know about those doily folds around the breast area, or the f-cking apron around her By Lainey • Nov 10, 2011 12:08 pm
Taylor Swift Taylor Swift got married No, actually she didn’t. But if this isn’t a wedding gown... And I don’t hate it at all. I just wish it could have been styled differently. Like going back to what I said in the Carrie Underwood post, I don’t understand why we can’t By Lainey • Nov 10, 2011 11:46 am
