Faux Gossip Brad Pitt answers the question Here’s one thing that sucks more for celebrities than civilians. If you’re a civilian, and you’re way over someone, you don’t have to deal with millions of people not being over them on your behalf. Like nobody in my life is pining over any of my By Lainey • May 08, 2019 10:13 am
Royals The House Cambridge emojis That was the most economical title to fit what this post is about but I realise that it’s misleading so, to be clear, House Cambridge, William and Kate, have not released their own set of emojis – even though that would be amazing and they should consider it.

What Else What Else? Met Gala is done for now. Heads up for tomorrow – supposedly we’re getting our first look at Baby Sussex and we’ll find out his name. I’m telling you, this child’s celebrity timing! He’s born to start the week. He takes a break to let the By Lainey • May 07, 2019 03:59 pm
Met Gala 2019 Zendaya & Law Roach: Met Gala Best (Lainey) Come ON. COME ON. As I’ve already said today, Disney princess is automatic Camp. Fairy tales are stories made extra. And what makes Zendaya’s look extra extra, as managed by Law Roach, of course and always, is that this is Cinderella down to the very, very last detail. By Lainey • May 07, 2019 02:53 pm
Met Gala 2019 Gwyneth Paltrow: Met Gala Most Boring (Lainey) When the theme is Camp, “worst dressed” isn’t actually the worst. “Worst dressed” might actually be the prize. By now, hopefully, we have a better understanding of the spirit of Camp, what it can be and what it most certainly isn’t. Is Gwyneth Paltrow on theme? Is she By Lainey • May 07, 2019 11:39 am
Lady Gaga Lady Gaga & Cardi B: Best Met Theatre You knew it was going to be SOMETHING. When Lady Gaga was confirmed as one of the co-chairs of the Met Gala, with the theme being Camp, nobody had any doubts that it was going to be the most literal interpretation of the theme from the woman who’s By Lainey • May 07, 2019 11:21 am

She told me that was blasphemy and she’ By Lainey • May 07, 2019 10:35 am
Top Reads Tessa, Natasha, and Kristen: a Warrior, a Doll, and a Knight go to the Met Gala There are always those people who talk about change like it’s a degradation of the standard that once was. Sometimes it’s true. Like, maybe your favourite restaurant isn’t the same anymore because they flipped the menu and, sure, that’s fair. But what about the people who By Lainey • May 07, 2019 09:45 am
Met Gala 2019 Solange & Zoe Saldana: the Curse of Met Gala Expectations Did Zoe Saldana look good last night? Of course. The rust-coloured, one arm sequined dress with the neck tie and matching stole fit her beautifully. Her hair was great. The giant purple flower was great. And at any other event, she’d be a contender. At this event, though? By Lainey • May 07, 2019 09:15 am
Met Gala 2019 Katy, JLo, Gemma, and Gigi: the Met Gala silver headpieces No one can say that Katy Perry doesn’t put in the effort. When you walk the Met Gala carpet as a chandelier, that’s effort. Anna Wintour certainly appreciates that, year after year, Katy brings her brand of spectacle to the event. And never has a Met Gala theme By Lainey • May 07, 2019 07:49 am
Nicki Minaj Kacey, Hailey, Nicki: the Met Gala Barbies Nicki Minaj’s association with “Barbie” is well-known. From the moment she came on the scene, “Barbie” has been her whole deal, her “barbz” ride-or-die with her every feud. Seeing her last night in “Barbie” pink, with a “Barbie” high ponytail, was almost a throwback. Or a By Lainey • May 07, 2019 05:46 am
Met Gala 2019 Tracee Ellis-Ross & Lena Waithe: Best Met Messages Lena Waithe delivered the best statement at last year’s Met Gala when the theme was “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination”, commanding the red carpet in a rainbow cape meant as a super-shield of support and strength for those rejected by a divine prescription that is selective By Lainey • May 07, 2019 05:04 am
