Movie Reviews and Previews Ryan Gosling’s New Merch Last year, Ryan Gosling showed up at CinemaCon in Vegas to kick off the Barbie era in a pink bomber over a t-shirt that read “Greta Gerwig” in Barbie font. His hair was Ken-blonde, his skin was Ken-bronzed, and it was basically the first time we were introduced to the By Lainey • Mar 14, 2024 01:24 pm
Music Justin Timberlake, but Travis Kelce is the story Justin Timberlake’s new album, Everything I Thought It Was, drops tomorrow. The lead single “Selfish” was released several weeks ago and another song “Drown” came out shortly after – both have been flops. The tour, however, has been selling well, so he clearly has an engaged fanbase but there’s By Lainey • Mar 14, 2024 11:41 am
Royals Intro for March 14, 2024 Dear Gossips, Prince William stepped out today to visit a youth program in Hammersmith and Fulham ahead of tonight’s Diana Legacy Awards. The Prince of Wales is expected to give a speech and hand out awards to the 20 young people who are being honoured for their philanthropic participation. By Lainey • Mar 14, 2024 09:57 am
What Else What Else? John Cena was delightful at the Oscars, I loved his bit, and I love that he fully committed to it. But apparently there’s now a conspiracy theory going around on social media in certain corners (the batsh-t corners) about why he really did what he did. Not to make By Lainey • Mar 13, 2024 04:05 pm
Douchebags On schedule: Kate Waldo and the deflection Didn’t take long for the British tabloids to get back on their f-cksh-t with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as everyone continues to be obsessed with playing Where’s Kate Waldo? The big story this week, perhaps even bigger than the Oscars, has been about Princess Kate’s Mother’ By Lainey • Mar 13, 2024 02:05 pm
Denzel Washington Intro for March 13, 2024 Dear Gossips, Lenny Kravitz was honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame yesterday. He has a new album coming out in May – you may remember the video for the lead single “TK421” that was released back in October. And if you don’t remember it, it’s By Lainey • Mar 13, 2024 10:19 am
What Else What Else? As Sarah mentioned yesterday when writing about Emma Stone, that video of her that went viral from the Oscars when she threw up her hand and ran away was taken by our very own Kathleen Newman-Bremang because she was at the Oscars, and hanging out in the lobby at the By Lainey • Mar 12, 2024 04:07 pm
Amazingness Ryan Gosling shows his work I could not get enough of Duana’s post on Ryan Gosling’s “I’m Just Ken” performance at the Oscars yesterday. Because what she was writing about and appreciating was the WORK that Ryan put into being Ken. From the moment he kicked off his Ken era a year By Lainey • Mar 12, 2024 01:51 pm
Royals The Kate Waldo Photo: Meta Data and the Mother Card It’s been 24 hours since Princess Kate’s unprecedented public apology and admission that she doctored the photo that she released on Mother’s Day in the UK, a backfired effort to shut down rampant speculation about her … existence. Seriously not kidding about the word “existence”. There are some By Lainey • Mar 12, 2024 12:33 pm
Oscars 2024 Intro for March 12, 2024 Dear Gossips, We namechecked Angelina Jolie once in our Oscar coverage yesterday in the Sydney Sweeney post about how Sydney wore Angelina’s Oscar dress from 2004 to this year’s Vanity Fair party. But that wasn’t the only Angelina appearance on Oscar weekend. Jon Batiste’s “It Never By Lainey • Mar 12, 2024 10:22 am
Oscars 2024 Lainey's Best Dressed: Pink America but not red There were a few looks I very much enjoyed last night, but this for me was the one that made me gasp – and the first time I saw it, it was from the waist up. America Ferrera in pink Versace, at the Oscars as a first time nominee for Best By Lainey • Mar 11, 2024 03:35 pm
Assy Style What color is Lupita’s dress? Oscars fashion controversy! Lupita Nyong’o wore a custom Armani Prive gown to the 2024 Oscars with a feathered peplum and hem, which was 1) a dress originally designed for 2020 but Lupita ended up hanging onto it till now and 2) supposedly a “tribute” to her iconic 2014 Oscar By Lainey • Mar 11, 2024 01:41 pm
Oscars 2024 Witches and Colour at the Oscars As noted in my post about achromatic looks at the Oscars, there wasn’t much colour, not at the awards proper and not even at Vanity Fair, which is why those who did go with colour popped even more. For Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, it was colour and character. By Lainey • Mar 11, 2024 01:18 pm
Royals Oscar Intermission: Kate Waldo’s Mother’s Day Mess As I write this at 330am in Los Angeles, Duana and I are screaming in our hotel room over what just crossed the wires, in old people speak, lol. I’ve just woken up from a 45 minute nap because I am exhausted from three days straight of Oscar television By Lainey • Mar 11, 2024 11:13 am
Oscars 2024 Greta, Sydney, and Three Couples: Achromatic Oscar Sarah taught us a new word last night: achromatic. It was an achromatic night in fashion at the Oscars – very little colour, to Duana’s disappointment. Even when there was colour it was the lightest shade of whatever colour was chosen. There was a lot of black and white and By Lainey • Mar 11, 2024 10:16 am
Oscars 2024 Da’Vine Joy Randolph: Prepared and Sincere Like Robert Downey, Jr., it was pretty much a clean sweep this award season for Da’Vine Joy Randolph. Like RDJ, she was prepared – you don’t win everything right up to the Oscars without at least allowing for the possibility that it might happen on the biggest night. But By Lainey • Mar 11, 2024 07:35 am
