Style John and Olivia at a fashion party Has enough time passed? Or are people still big mad that John Mulaney and Olivia Munn are together? I’ve seen his standup, but I wouldn’t say that my interest in John is from standup. My favourite John Mulaney is Big Mouth and The Bear, so it was kind By Lainey • Sep 20, 2023 03:03 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Rihanna, Rocky, and RZA introduce Riot Remember how Rihanna announced her first pregnancy? It was a moment that, as they say, broke the internet. She and A$AP Rocky chose to do it through paparazzi-style photos, taken with their chosen paparazzo, Miles Diggs.

Break Ups Sophie and Taylor go on a pap walk Can we not waste time and just agree, because COME ON!, that this was fully intentional and CELEBRATE IT?! This is harm-free gossip.

What Else What Else? Just as so many other artists have been doing over the last few years, Katy Perry has sold her catalogue. Musicians are making less and less on music sales.

BFFs When Taylor and Greta went for dinner It really is giving 1989 right now. 1989 (Taylor’s Version) is coming in just over a month. I posted yesterday that Taylor’s been bringing back pieces from her closet from that album cycle but it’s also just, like, the general energy. The 1989 era was the time By Lainey • Sep 19, 2023 12:39 pm
Royals Harry and Meghan: A Winning Week of Invictus Here are Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at the Invictus Games closing ceremony in Düsseldorf the other night, closing out a glorious week of events for the athletes and organisers and also for the Sussexes themselves.

Top Reads Chris Evans is trying not to care Chris Evans covers the October issue of GQ and he’s described as a “reluctant leading man”. Because, of course, as we can see from the photos, Chris Evans certainly looks like a leading man, he fits the physical description of what Hollywood has conventionally packaged as a leading man.

What Else What Else? Jessica Chastain, a total f-cking showstopper in this dress. I was a bit worried, initially, that from the side those diamonds would look a bit… Big Toppy? Like clown and circus? But it works. And those colours are great on her. It’s just a hint of green but against By Lainey • Sep 18, 2023 04:01 pm
Music Justin Timberlake 2024 It’s been almost a week since the *NSYNC reunion last week at the MTV VMAs during which JC Chasez, Chris Kirkpatrick, Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, and Justin Timberlake showed up on stage to present Taylor Swift with an award.

Music The Bennifer Drought is Over In my last post about Jennifer Lopez, I wrote – and not even jokingly – that we were in a sort of Bennifer drought, because by their standards, they hadn’t been photographed together in almost a month.

In the absence of real answers, By Lainey • Sep 18, 2023 11:42 am
Douchebags Intro for September 18, 2023 Dear Gossips, Trigger warning for sexual assault. It’s been years since I’ve paid all that much attention to Russell Brand, and frankly I don’t want to start paying attention to him again.
