Intro for May 18, 2012 Dear Gossips, The thing about the people at these fancy Cannes parties is that I’m not sure they stop to appreciate the cocktail napkins. I’m serious.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Nina's nude sateen Oh Nina. You know I have a lot of love for Nina. It's a sentence often repeated on this blog. You also know I hate sateen. If Nina can't even make sateen work, sateen will NEVER work. It's just not a material that ever By Lainey • May 18, 2012 09:21 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Charlize's red shoulders What do we call this? Caped shoulders? I like the high fashiony-ness of it. But I'm not sure the medieval shape is the most flattering from some angles. Having said that, it's right in there with her character and the film... By Lainey • May 17, 2012 05:00 pm
Maple Leaf Battleship vs The Avengers Week 3 Taylor Kitsch was in New York this week for a last push to promote Battleship. After this he pretty much goes right into press for Savages. Battleship opens on Friday. Can it challenge The Avengers? The Avengers made over $100 million on its SECOND weekend. That’s crazy. I’m By Lainey • May 17, 2012 04:44 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession My Mom Is Emma Thompson Emma Thompson showed up at the London premiere of MIB3 with her daughter Gaia. SO cute, right? Both in white. And with the same hair! You know how at some point or another our parents always end up embarrassing us? Look at Emma being Emma, with all those facial expressions, By Lainey • May 17, 2012 03:57 pm
Lifestyle Jessica & Jada’s dots in Cannes If we’re having a Madagascar dot-off I’ll say Jada Pinkett Smith wins this one. And I don’t love Jada’s dress a lot. It’s just that Jessica Chastain’s seems too super cutesy. Thoughts? By Lainey • May 17, 2012 03:00 pm
Henry Windsor Will & Harry talk to Katie about their Granny ABC has secured the US rights to broadcast the Concert For The Queen on June 5 in celebration of Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee. As part of the deal, I guess the network was also able to negotiate exclusive interviews with Princes William and Harry to air on May 29th By Lainey • May 17, 2012 02:52 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Rachel Bilson’s white breasts I don’t know about this doily around the neck? Lorella just called it one of those things you put around your neck when you’re getting your makeup or hair done and don’t want it to dirty up your clothes. Also this dress looks really weird around the By Lainey • May 17, 2012 02:34 pm
Michael Fassbender Michael Fassbender is not Tom Cruise The Tom Cruise Playboy article is insightful in its lack of insight. Michael Fassbender just doesn’t have that level of control yet. He’s not a machine. Michael Fassbender, rather, right now at least, seems to be all instinct and impulse. When he’s interviewed then, it’s more By Lainey • May 17, 2012 02:14 pm
Chills Chills Chills Tom Cruise is not John Travolta Rock Of Ages opens in less than a month. We’re about to get a lot of Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise as a badass rock star. Tom Cruise bare-chested, wearing eyeliner, and SINGING. Two magazine profiles have been released as advance promotion for the film. I’m sure by By Lainey • May 17, 2012 02:03 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cobie's white cut-outs I could see this on Lea Michele. Not feeling it on Cobie Smulders. Are the proportions all wrong? Between where the breasts sit and where the cut-outs are, it doesn't look right. I wonder if this is a short girl's dress. Also, gross red shoes. By Lainey • May 17, 2012 01:50 pm
Girly Throw Downs Beyonce & Jay-Z: scheduled avoidance? Here’s Jay-Z last night in London at the UK premiere of Men In Black 3. Jay and Kanye West kick off 5 nights of Watch The Throne at the O2 on Friday. Currently there is no sign of Beyonce there. B plays 4 shows in Atlantic City next By Lainey • May 17, 2012 12:34 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Lucy Liu's pearls Asian hair is not all created equal. Most of us, I'll admit, we have good hair. But dude, Lucy Liu's hair is on a whole other level. What do you think of the pearls on the straps of this dress? If they were totally even on By Lainey • May 17, 2012 11:44 am
Dumbass JLo’s next career moves Forbes has just put Jennifer Lopez on top of their Celebrity 100 List, calling her the most powerful celebrity in the business with $52 million earned last year along with total pop culture domination. I don’t dispute it. American Idol is the best decision she’s ever made. The By Lainey • May 17, 2012 10:29 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jane Fonda shimmers in Cannes I just wish she would have gone full strapless instead of having that figure skating sh-t around her arms and shoulders. Is it because she's older and we're not supposed to see that her skin isn't as taut as it used to be? By Lainey • May 17, 2012 10:21 am
Girly Throw Downs Lea & Cory: Summer Of Love? Lea Michele and Cory Monteith attended the Fox Upfront presentation the other day in New York to represent Glee. They’ll both be back for Season 4...as ratings have steadily declined over the year. Some are saying that next year could be the last? Must be why Kate Hudson By Lainey • May 17, 2012 10:03 am
