Maple Leaf Ryan & Eva, his mother, and a ferris wheel Last year Ryan Gosling was there for his mother when she graduated from McMaster University with a bachelors degree. He even shouted an endearment when she walked across the stage. Click here for a refresher. This year Ryan’s ma is graduating from teacher’s college at Brock University.

Movie Reviews and Previews Django’s first trailer As I’ve been saying for a while now... this is the movie I’m waiting for. More than The Dark Knight Rises, more than anything else, even Les Miserables, it’s Django Unchained. Advance footage from the film, opening in December, was screened in Cannes. In comparison this trailer By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 04:45 pm
Aging Gorgessity On Great Skin This is Sharon Stone on Sunday at The Elizabeth Glaser Paediatric AIDS Foundation A Time For Heroes picnic in LA. She just turned 54. She and Madonna were born the same year. Well that’s another way to do it, isn’t it? Am I crazy? Because Sharon Stone looks By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 04:37 pm
Weddings Liam & the ring PEOPLE broke the story of Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth’s engagement this morning. They also have exclusive details about the ring. Click here to read about how many carats and how it was cut etc etc etc. You like it? It’s not what I was expecting at all. By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 03:14 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Beyonce’s red tuxedo blazer I have been looking for one in black. Of course Beyonce’s wearing it. Sasha did a post on tuxedo blazers a few weeks ago – click here. I’m the mc at Duana’s wedding and have been looking for one that fits my shoulders properly. The Elizabeth and James By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 03:02 pm
Break Ups Well that didn’t last long John Mayer is promoting a new album. A few weeks ago, I wrote this article about his self-imposed retreat, subsequent return, and seeming new perspective. As I noted in that post, I couldn’t criticise; he did indeed take ownership of his mistakes and accountability for his ego. And then By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 02:28 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Rachel Weisz dresses down This is about as down-dressed as it gets for a celebrity. And not like “down-dressed by intention” either. Check out Rachel Weisz in New York yesterday. Those are gym pants with cuffed ankles. And white socks. And black trainers. With a reusable grocery bag. No one could argue that this By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 01:45 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Where’s the wheelchair? First let me apologise. I know by your emails that many of you have been waiting for the John Mayer article and I’m still writing it. This is what’s sh-tty about my blog: I like to GO ON. So it takes me longer to get those thoughts together. By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 01:33 pm
Weddings Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth engaged Big day for PEOPLE Magazine. And they certainly needed the win considering that Us Weekly was owning their asses for the first half of the year. PEOPLE is high on a double exclusive today though, following up their Jessica Simpson baby unveil issue last week with Drew Barrymore’s wedding By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 12:18 pm
Famewhores Drew’s wedding and the dreaded pose I don’t know why I’m surprised. At this point, whenever a celebrity sells something, no matter how intimate, why should we be surprised? But still you hope. You hope that there are still a few of them who resist and don’t. That they keep something to themselves. By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 11:21 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: SJP’s purple on purple Is that velvet jacket purple too? I generally don’t like heels with big ass sh-t on the toe. Like her “dream wedding” shoe in the Sex & The City movie. Somehow though she always makes it work. And I like the way she’s breaking it all up with By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 10:54 am
Royals The Queen & Her (only) Heirs All I remember reading in advance about the balcony appearance and flypast was that the Queen would be accompanied by “senior members of the Royal Family”. Senior means only the Waleses? There’s always something new to learn, see? Just Charles with his wife and children, the heir and the By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 10:47 am
Intro for June 6, 2012 Dear Gossips, My Blackberry is my alarm clock. Every morning I reach over, turn it off, and it goes straight to the email screen. BREAKING NEWS: the worst two words to wake up to. And I always say to myself, please God, don’t let it be Brange. Because do By Lainey • Jun 06, 2012 09:51 am
Style Annie gives me another excuse When I was 19 I had my hair cut like this. Maybe even shorter. Then all 4 of my wisdom teeth came out and I lost a lot of weight. My mother said I was horrifying. She didn’t want our relatives to come over because she thought they’d By Lainey • Jun 05, 2012 05:38 pm
Lainey Interviews Kristen Stewart’s labels Here’s Kristen Stewart’s Vanity Fair spread by the ever-unimaginative Mario Testino. Are we ever going to be over him? Mario Testino is the Jay Leno of photographers. Chill Twi-Hards. I’m not saying she’s not beautiful. She is always beautiful, and if you could read properly I By Lainey • Jun 05, 2012 04:11 pm
