What Else What Else? A beautiful tribute to the late bell hooks by Brittney Cooper. (The Cut) As the Fug Girls say, Chloe Grace Moretz is back. She’s kept a very low profile the last year or so. And now she’s on a red carpet in an outfit inspired by… Liza Minnelli? By Lainey • Dec 16, 2021 05:02 pm
Top Reads Bennifer at Kimmel A day after his comments on Howard Stern went viral, Ben Affleck was scheduled for an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! It was both good timing and bad timing.

What Else What Else? The fit of Lil Nas X’s white suit here is perfect. And I’m so into the white turtleneck under it. The furry hat is pure him, for some personality and fun, but this is one of his more conventional red carpet looks, which is why, to me, it’ By Lainey • Dec 14, 2021 04:40 pm
Keanu Reeves Meme on Keanu As I mentioned yesterday, this will happily be a week of Keanu Reeves content as we approach the release of The Matrix Resurrections.

Tom Holland The Mask of Zendaya This is what it was all building to – the big Hollywood premiere of Spider-Man: No Way Home happened last night and as far as Zendaya’s looks have been concerned the last few weeks, it was the one we were all waiting on.

Sandra Oh Intro for December 14, 2021 Dear Gossips, Simu Liu was at the Hollywood premiere of Spider-Man: No Way Home last night. That’s not a surprise.
