What Else What Else? Jenny Packham’s new collection is definitely red carpet, as the Fug Girls say, and it’s almost a wistful set of dresses, as if to say… let’s bring back these glittery, feathery dresses and sequins and prettiness. Not sure when we’re going to see this in play. By Lainey • Mar 04, 2021 05:24 pm
BFFs Angelina & Ellen Celebrity friendships are often just as interesting as celebrity romances, maybe more. And there’s a new celebrity friendship now that’s just emerged.

Top Reads “If There’s An Active Role That The Firm Is Playing” “Were you silent or were you silenced?” is the question that featured prominently in the first teaser for Oprah’s two-hour Prince Harry and Meghan Markle special that CBS released on Sunday.

Royals Royals Investigating Royals For all the times that we’ve heard about the British royal family staying above the fray, and never complaining or explaining, the events of this week should shut that sh-t down forever, non?

Shout-Outs March 4, 2021 – Smutty Shout-Outs A few weeks ago, I posted about Ashley, a mother of two, whose home was destroyed in a fire. A home can be rebuilt. But other losses are forever.

Royals Intro for March 4, 2021 Dear Gossips, “Could this whole night have been an email” is what Tina Fey jokingly asked at one point during the Golden Globes the other night. In retrospect, probably quite a few people would have preferred the email? The SAG Awards will not be an email. But by award show By Lainey • Mar 04, 2021 08:58 am
What Else What Else? I am very, very into Rachel Brosnahan’s umbrella on the set of The Marvelous Mrs Maisel. I love umbrellas like this. The ones that truly form a dome around you. And I’ve always loved a clear umbrella because I’m clumsy and never know where I’m going By Lainey • Mar 03, 2021 04:06 pm
Royals The Curious Case of Meghan’s Earrings If it wasn’t obvious that the new report in The Times, featuring information provided by royal aides, was part of a smear campaign against Meghan Markle, the story about the earrings, packaged in along with allegations that she bullied staff members, pretty much drives the point home. It has By Lainey • Mar 03, 2021 11:53 am
Top Reads The Royals On The Attack We are now just four days away from Oprah Winfrey’s exclusive two-hour special on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, featuring their first sit-down interview together since their engagement.

What Else What Else? Do you know who the British Royal Magnificent Seven are? The word “magnificent” is a stretch here, apparently, because some people have pointed out that there doesn’t seem to be all that much excitement about the allegedly magnificent royal seven. And that’s an issue for the royal PR By Lainey • Mar 02, 2021 04:02 pm

What Else What Else? Viola Davis’s dress was magnificent last night at the Globes. I was so curious about it because you could only see it from the chest up but they cut to her every chance they got – because she’s Viola but also because that dress really popped in her shot. By Lainey • Mar 01, 2021 02:57 pm
Golden Globes 2021 A Red Dress for Rosamund Pike I am… a little bit afraid of Rosamund Pike. And I think that’s OK. I think it’s a compliment about her performances, how she can be subtly sinister. Rosamund doesn’t rely on predictable ways of conveying danger (ahem, Jared Leto); rather it’s the way she can By Lainey • Mar 01, 2021 12:11 pm
Golden Globes 2021 Anya & Tiffany: The Law of Golden Globes As mentioned in the open, I’m not sure there was that much fashion to talk about at last night’s Golden Globes, and definitely not in comparison to years past or even the Emmys. There were, of course, a few standouts. And two of them were produced by Law By Lainey • Mar 01, 2021 10:42 am
