Oscars 2014 Elsa Pataky: Best Oscar Pregnancy (Lainey) I’m surprised too. Because you know how I feel about Elie Saab: same, same, same, boring, same, same, same. But maybe this is where Elie Saab excels: maternity wear? It’s a good colour on her. And I’ve decided I can only tolerate a nude underlay if it’ By Lainey • Mar 03, 2014 05:18 am
Oscars 2014 Lady Gaga: Oscars Most Unwelcome For someone who claims to exist purely for the fans, Lady Gaga wasn’t so much about the fans at the Oscars. The Academy sets up several sections of bleachers along the red carpet where fans can scream at their favourite stars. The call time for the fans is around By Lainey • Mar 03, 2014 04:45 am
Oscars 2014 Oscar Replacement: Chris Evans for Andrew Garfield On Saturday before the Oscars, the Academy makes the red carpet available to entertainment crews rehearsing live shows for the next day. That would include ABC, the official US broadcaster, hosted by Tyson Beckford who, holy sh-t, looks great but doesn’t think all that great, and E! with Ryan By Lainey • Mar 03, 2014 03:35 am
Oscars 2014 Oscar Cavalli: Kristen Bell & Kristin Chenoweth I don’t remember hearing Tom Ford’s name once on the Oscar carpet this year. He normally only dresses just one person at an event. Or, you know, Hayden Panettiere buys it off the rack. You have to be at a certain level for Tom Ford. At the level By Lainey • Mar 03, 2014 03:04 am
Oscars 2014 The Oscars Overview Duana and I both have thoughts on this and on Ellen DeGeneres as host. Let’s start with Duana’s analysis first: Duana: The thing about Ellen Degeneres as host was that there was already a much higher standard than for someone like He Who Irritated Us Last Year.

Steve McQueen Intro for March 3, 2014 Dear Gossips, How f-cking cute is Steve McQueen? The jumping up and down? It was indeed a director/film split between Gravity and 12 Years A Slave with Alfonso Cuaron taking Best Director and the right film being immortalised. Because, as I suggested in one of our production meetings this By Lainey • Mar 03, 2014 02:25 am
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Maison Martin Margiela F/W 2014 I was expecting to see facemasks and a lot more weirdness. And instead, this is almost… boring. Right? Except for the slip dress. I’m all about that slip dress. By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 06:35 pm
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Isabel Marant F/W 2014 Quite possibly the most unremarkable collection from Marant in a while, and I mean that in a good way. I don’t want to see anymore pairs of red jeans with the studding down the sides. Some of that sh-t was verging on tacky. There’s still a sense of By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 06:28 pm
Break Ups Relationships and your phone Here’s where I sound like an old lady. Because Jacek and I are on each other’s phones all the time. If he’s driving, I’m reading his texts and emails to him. And he’s the one who programs my phone and sets it up and I’ By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 04:04 pm
Gorgessity Winona Ryder: RED, Crazy, Beautiful I threw you a Troy Dyer/Reality Bites reference yesterday in Smutty Tingles. And it happens to be the 20th anniversary of the movie, did you know that? We’re going to come back to this after the Oscars because it deserves all of your attention. For now though, please, By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 03:18 pm
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Christian Dior F/W 2014 God this is suuuuuuch a beautiful collection. Now THESE are dresses. I love the layering of them – a consistent two-tone theme all over the runway, and peekaboo pieces over zigzag lengths. How about that spectacular red one? And I’m not one for a red dress most of the time By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 03:11 pm
Break Ups Robin’s public appeals Robin Thicke is behaving like a desperate man. As you know, he and Paula Patton announced their separation on Monday. Or, she announced their separation on Monday. Because he cancelled several tour stops to try and get her to change her mind. Which she hasn’t…so far. And now By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 02:40 pm
Award Season Campaigning Jared Leto's Oscar hair Jared Leto arrived in LA yesterday ahead of what will be the big moment of his acting career. As you know, he is the overwhelming favourite to win the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his performance in Dallas Buyers Club. And while his campaign hasn't been as flawless By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 02:01 pm
Lifestyle Paris Fashion Week: Lanvin F/W 2014 It's the label Giuliana Rancic can't pronounce. Not Lonn-Vonn. Think of the French word for wine and then just add "Lon" in front of it. How hard can that be? Anyway, is that a baseball cap? Lanvin confuses me because while I do like By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 01:38 pm
Amazingness Charlize & Sean's Oscar weekend I can't. I still can't process this. All of the following: Charlize Theron and Sean Penn are together. Charlize Theron and Sean Penn are even posing together. What in the actual f-ck?! They were out last night at a party celebrating Pharrell Williams and his hat. By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 01:10 pm
Jon Hamm Jon Hamm is punctual What usually happens is that you're told to get to the carpet for a 730pm check-in with talent expected to arrive at 8pm (but we all know it's more like 830pm or later). Last night at the Artists For Peace And Justice fundraiser Jon Hamm got By Lainey • Feb 28, 2014 12:38 pm
