Girlcrushes Worst Stomach Clench – Connie Britton Written by Duana Warning: I get emotional in here. If it’s not for you, no prob. Oh, you guys. Unbelievable. What a roller coaster ride if you’re a Britton fan. Of course we all had no hope that they could sweep the four categories they were nominated in. By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 06:23 am
Friday Night Lights Best Emmy Fumble: Coach wins! First it was Jason Katims for Writing... which... It’s about F-CKING TIME!!!! What? You don’t understand? Because you don’t watch??? Well... I don’t know what else I can say. It’s been declared one of the best shows, if not THE best show, of ALL By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 06:10 am
Girly Throw Downs Worst ‘girlfriends’: Minka Kelly/ Drew Barrymore Written by Duana A couple of weeks ago it was my sisters’ wedding. The photographer had all the women walk in lockstep, saying it would be a cool shot. In reality, the tall types out-strided the shorties, who wound up in the back behind the group. This is what By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 05:33 am
Gorgessity Best Emmy skin: Katie Holmes When TIFF was winding last week and several of us sat around comparing notes and gossiping, as we always do after the festival, a few minutes of the conversation was devoted to a certain actress who looked spectacular in photographs, wearing what was truly an inspired dress, but who actually By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 05:18 am
Bad Style Worst Emmy Hair: Elisabeth Moss Elisabeth Moss was born in 1982. She’s only 29 years old. She’s YOUNGER THAN BRITNEY SPEARS. Now that this has been thrown in your face, it makes her hair last night even more offensive, right? How does a 29 year old girl show up at the Emmys with By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 05:08 am
Girlcrushes Best Emmy Fist Pump: Kate Winslet I loved that Kate Winslet, who is now just a Tony Award away from EGOT, was so unabashedly happy about winning her Emmy. Maybe it was put on, maybe she was pretending it meant as much to her as the others, but if we have a choice between the two, By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 04:55 am
Emmy Awards 2011 Worst Hamster Wheel: Julie Bowen Written by Duana This is a hard one. Of course it is impossible to miss how thin Julie Bowen is. I didn’t hear her on the carpet this time, and she is not one of the people whose magazine profiles I will read while standing in the drugstore but By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 04:40 am
Girlcrushes Best Red & better than LeAnn Rimes:Martha Plimpton How did I just realise that they have the same face? Needless to say, as already noted in other articles and this goes way back to the 80s, I love Martha Plimpton, so it makes me sad to have to point that out. But what’s even more sad is By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 04:26 am
Amazingness Best Mediocre into Amazing: Sofia Vergara On anyone else I wouldn’t have a lot of time for this dress. You’ve seen it before. Many, many times. And it’s red. And I’ve already told you how I feel about red, especially on a red carpet. But Sofia Vergara happens to be wearing it. By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 04:01 am
Emmy Awards 2011 Best Emmy Cut-eye: Ian Somerhalder Written by Duana Oh, I watched this over and over again. It’s so painful – he and Lea Michele are presenting, have a bit of scripted ‘unscripted’ banter, he has the last line with “right” and then moves on with “okay –“, but she can’t help herself. She says, “You By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 03:50 am
Bad Style Worst Emmy White: Julianna Margulies She wore a ceramic coffee mug. This is what I called it, even before I rolled my eyes at her win over Connie Britton’s Tami Taylor. Julianna Margulies is the uninspired vote. Because if you’ve had the pleasure of watching Britton on Friday Night Lights, well, you know By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 03:14 am
Style Best Emmy White: Aubrey Plaza Remember my hate-on for that annoying girl in Crazy, Stupid, Love? Analeigh Tipton? The over-breather? Click here for a refresher. Tipton goes to the Kristen Stewart school of over-breathing - three times in a short sentence for dramatic effect, which seems to have become the acting hallmark of By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 03:04 am
Bad Style Worst Dress as an Organism: Heidi Klum Etalk has sent me on two or three baking shoots. And each time I’ve had to ice a cake. You’re supposed to hold the icing bag and delicately pulse it around in the shape of shells or rosebuds. I suck at it. My sh-t ends up looking By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 02:46 am
Emmy Awards 2011 Best Fantasy Gig – The Emmytones Written by Duana You know I love to sing, right? There’s been enough indication of that here, and anyone who knows me will tell you. Which is why I got so giddy at the Emmytones. Here’s how I think it went down, in my fantasy. The producers called By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 02:33 am
Emmy Awards 2011 Emmys Most Miserable: Claire Danes I feel like whenever I see Claire Danes smile, she doesn’t really mean it. Duana asked the question during the liveblog last night - when was the last time Claire Danes threw her head back and laughed, heartily? If you watched MSCL, you’ll understand the attachment we feel to By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 02:21 am
Girly Throw Downs Emmy ex-off: Jennifer Carpenter vs Julia Stiles Did Michael C Hall actually go the Emmys? I’ve seen photos of him at an after-party but haven’t been able to find pictures of him at the show. Or perhaps I was preoccupied with shots of his ex-wife and his ex-lover dressed in similarly toned By Lainey • Sep 19, 2011 02:08 am
