Debra Messing Most Desperate: Debra Messing She hasn’t been right on the red carpet in a long time. Everything about this wedding dress sucks: it looks cheap, the seams seem off, it wrinkles too easy, and at the end of the day, it’s not flattering. She just wanted it too badly, you know? Always By Lainey • Sep 16, 2007 08:00 pm
America Ferrera Best Blue: America Fererra Like a second skin – I love, love, love. It’s all in the cut and the material, non? Forgiving and flattering folds, a well placed belt and the hair is perfect and the makeup is right on – America has been bringing it lately. Who is the stylist behind the transformation?

Lainey Interviews TIFF Loose Ends The best party was a party for the randoms. Aritzia on Bloor Street Monday night – we had the best time. Jena Malone showed up, so did Gus Van Sant (???). Also the dude from Entourage who plays Harvey Weingard, based on Harvey Weinstein. So I was a little drunk when I By Lainey • Sep 15, 2007 08:00 pm
Jessica Alba TIFF Svengali Everyone on the party circuit observed it this week – Harvey Weinstein and Jessica Alba, always with their heads bowed together, always deep in conversation. He talking at her, she nodding acquiescently. At one point he was supposedly overheard giving her advice about her relationship. Harvey doesn’t seem to be By Lainey • Sep 15, 2007 08:00 pm
Girlcrushes TIFF Girlcrush There have actually been a few. Michelle Rodriguez is one of them…can you believe it? Just haven’t had time to explain. More on Michelle later… This is about Rachel McAdams. Wednesday night was the premiere of Married Life. The big draw of course was Rachel – and she did By Lainey • Sep 15, 2007 08:00 pm
Ethan Hawke TIFF Manorexic Hate myself for finding him sexy. Because Ethan Hawke is such a cheesedick, he really is. But I loved Reality Bites and there’s something about being stupid and 21 and what you find attractive at 21 that you can never shake, no matter how much growing you do in By Lainey • Sep 15, 2007 08:00 pm
George Clooney TIFF Clooney He was lost in the TIFF shuffle and the Pitt frenzy – am sorry, although unlike Cannes, there wasn’t much smut-wise to tell about George Clooney’s visit to Toronto, except to say he was a total stud and charmed the panties off everyone… male and female. George was By Lainey • Sep 15, 2007 08:00 pm
Joaquin Phoenix TIFF Heartbreak For a refresher on why Joaquin Phoenix is now sad smut, please click here Having said that, because fair is fair, following my post on Thursday about his alarming behaviour at the junket, I was contacted by a source from the film company handling publicity for the movie with clarification By Lainey • Sep 15, 2007 08:00 pm
Paris Hilton Ebola on the Roof Last night, Roof II at the Park Hyatt, Toronto… it was already pretty busy when I got up there close to midnight. Full of film executive and agent types, overflowing with slime and cheese. At one point when we were on the patio, some douche came over to Sasha and By Lainey • Sep 13, 2007 12:29 pm
Dog Eat Dog One after another – celebrity dog scandals. This one is extremely upsetting. Miss Bottom had two. Both of the same fierce breed. They say of this breed that they should never be left alone together. That inevitably only one will remain. And this is what happened recently. One ate the other. By Lainey • Sep 13, 2007 12:28 pm
Quiveration Late on the Bandwagon Mark Ruffalo –I apologise for sucking. For being late on the bandwagon. For taking so long to figure it out. But now that I have… I love him. He is divine. One of the most engaging, most endearing, loveliest celebrities out there, maybe because fame came late. Maybe because he By Lainey • Sep 13, 2007 11:11 am
Lainey Interviews Falling Short It’s one of the few downsides of the job and while the snark is occasionally balanced by super love and adoration, when your fantasies about someone turn out to be just that – just fantasies – it absolutely crushes you. Such is the case with Joaquin Phoenix. I am sad. I By Lainey • Sep 12, 2007 08:00 pm
Joaquin Phoenix Joaquin at the Window Am in my room at the Intercon looking out the window. There’s a terrace one floor below. Jaoquin Poenix and Mark Ruffalo – I can almost touch them. Like literally open the window and speak without raising my voice and he could hear me. Should I ask him why he’ By Lainey • Sep 12, 2007 09:32 am
Kate Bosworth The Girl in the Elevator Waited at the elevator beside Kate Bosworth yesterday at the Intercon. She was on junket assignment for her new film The Girl in the Park with Sigourney Weaver. She is taller than most, though not as tall as you might think, and sooooper thin. Especially her legs. Too bony, not By Lainey • Sep 12, 2007 09:07 am
Victoria Beckham Front Row ConcreteTits Between Fashion Week and TIFF, many celebrities are jetting back and forth from NYC to Toronto. In Victoria Beckham’s case it’s from the west coast…LA to New York to prop her concrete tits in the front row at a series of shows including Marc Jacobs and Oscar By Lainey • Sep 12, 2007 08:50 am
Ashlee Simpson Funniest.Sh-t.Ever It doesn’t get much better than this. Sunday night at some club after the VMAs, Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson and their entourage which, of course, included her creepy perv ass father (would you go clubbing with your da?) got into a scrap with some bodyguards that resulted in By Lainey • Sep 12, 2007 04:28 am
