Girly Throw Downs Mimi vs JLO on stage Season finale of American Idol last night. Both Mimi and JLo performed. Mimi threw down a medley of her greatest hits -- I always forget how much I love We Belong Together -- culminating in her current smash #Beautiful. It was... a little lip-synchy, right? Maybe not the middle section By Lainey • May 17, 2013 11:21 am
Blind Riddles Deal with the paps She hates the paps, and she’s been burned by the paps. So now she’s dealing with the paps and is working exclusively with one agency, agreeing to give them photos on a regular basis.

Baby and Bump Obsession The daughter of the Most Beautiful Woman In The World No, not Apple Martin. For years Aishwarya Rai has been called the Most Beautiful Woman In The World, because the world exists beyond North America. Rai is a Cannes regular.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Berenice’s braid crown Love it. Love all of it, up and down. Especially the way the pants fit and the tuxedo stripe down the side. And she looks comfortable. By Lainey • May 17, 2013 09:57 am

Here he is being beautiful at a couple of Chopard events yesterday. Livia, his wife, is there too. Colin’s kept a relatively low profile for the last By Lainey • May 17, 2013 09:31 am
Rob Lowe Intro for May 17, 2013 Dear Gossips, There was an 80s marathon on tv the other night: The Breakfast Club, St Elmo’s Fire, and About Last Night. Obviously it’s all I could do: stare at Rob Lowe and revisit my 12 year old self crushing with the same intensity and longing. If 1985 By Lainey • May 17, 2013 09:02 am

Royals How many dowries? Were offered yesterday from rich ass families in New York hoping Hot Harry would “love at first sight” their daughters? And was Ashley Greene unable to buy her way into the event? Prince Harry played in a charity polo match in Connecticut yesterday in support of his foundation, Sentebale.

Cannes 2013 No dress porn from Emma Emma Watson’s wardrobe choices in Cannes today for the photo call and presser were really boring. I posted those pictures to the LifeStyle page. Was hoping she was saving something for the gala. Nope. The back is interesting-ish, I guess. But it’s all kinds of shrug from the By Lainey • May 16, 2013 03:57 pm
Bad Style How To GOOP Punk A new issue of GOOP. And it’s not wellness or mother-ness and food-ness. Instead, this newsletter is dedicated to GOOP Punk...at the MET Gala!

Those chest darts don’t work on that f-cking material I hate so much. And then it was a plain black shift for the presser. Fine. Maybe she’s By Lainey • May 16, 2013 01:28 pm

Dumbass Slum Bride? Jennifer Lopez was in New York yesterday at the NUVOtv Upfronts. Amazingly, the slum lover wasn’t with her. The boss was probably in LA, managing preparations in advance of her appearance tonight on the American Idol season finale.
