Met Gala 2021 Iman, Gigi, Kendall, Emily, Lily: Models at the Met Gala Models are regular cast members at the Met Gala. It’s fashion’s biggest night – you could argue that they belong there more than the celebrities who often outnumber them. That said, most of the time, at least in my opinion, models are the least interesting models at the Met By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 10:22 am
Met Gala 2021 Lourdes, Brooklyn, and Ella: Met Gala Offspring Madonna is a Met Gala regular. And I thought, after her stunt at the MTV VMAs on Sunday night, that for sure she would be there last night. Madonna being Madonna, an eternal provocateur, would have found a way to f-ck with the theme, In America. But she stayed home… By Lainey • Sep 14, 2021 09:21 am

What Else What Else? Kacey Musgraves performed for the first time at the VMAs last night. And what’s unusual about that is that she has an Album of the Year Grammy, one of the big four Grammy Awards, and considered by many to be the top Grammy. Like three years ago. And she’ By Lainey • Sep 13, 2021 04:41 pm
Gabrielle Union Everyone’s in New York Remember that sniping a few weeks ago from some crusty Hollywood publicists about the Met Gala guest list and how too many influencers were going and the A List is staying away? Depends on who you refer to as the A List. Like Jennifer Aniston is for sure A List. By Lainey • Sep 13, 2021 02:27 pm
Relationship Assumption Fighting and Making out at the VMAs MTV is celebrating its 40th anniversary and this story kinda feels like a throwback to the MTV messiness of years past? Axl Rose and Kurt Cobain beefed at the VMAs at one point. There was also a tense situation at one of the shows between Kid Rock and Tommy Lee. By Lainey • Sep 13, 2021 12:41 pm
Relationship Assumption Bennifer: Back on the Block We interrupt our VMAs coverage now to focus on a spectacle that, for some of us at least, might actually be bigger than the MTV VMAs, ha. Actually, no, Jennifer Lopez presented at the VMAs, so I guess this kinda counts? For Bennifer content, though, it doesn’t, because Ben By Lainey • Sep 13, 2021 10:31 am
Gorgessity Normani: VMAs Best Dressed Fashion at the MTV VMAs should not be what we see at the Emmys or the Oscars. Are we seriously hoping for Oscar de la Renta and no fun at an award show that’s notorious for over-the-top ridiculous spectacle? Remember, Lady Gaga once showed up in an egg.

Music Intro for September 13, 2021 Dear Gossips, At the MTV VMAs last night, for its 40th anniversary, MTV brought back several industry legends at various points in the night to celebrate its history.

What Else What Else? R Kelly and his legal team are desperate because this explanation that they just tried… it’s epic foolery. And also scientifically baseless. So f-cking tired of the whole MSG thing. It’s bullsh-t, and it’s always associated with Chinese food which has shaped an entire generation’s misconception By Lainey • Sep 10, 2021 04:59 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Ben and JLo Premiere Themselves I hope you were watching the livestream. Not that these pictures aren’t dynamite – they’re really, really, really f-cking amazing.

Style Lewis is light in Italy F1 qualifying is happening as I’m writing this. So my eyes are on Italy right now – one eye on the qualifying times in Monza and the other on the photo agencies and social media for Bennifer’s arrival on the red carpet in Venice.

Gossip Nostalgia Bennifer on a Venice Balcony Look. It’s Friday. And we don’t post on weekends. But Bennifer isn’t stopping.

Top Reads Bennifer in Venice: The Pre-Premiere LOL these two.

John Krasinski Emily and John hold hands in New York As mentioned in today’s open, it is a busy week in celebrity. They’re all over the place – and it’s the usual suspects but also those who aren’t seen that often.
