Intro for November 9, 2020 Dear Gossips, By now I’m sure you’ve seen this clip of Jeopardy! winner Burt Thakur that went viral last week before the news yesterday about Alex Trebek.

What Else What Else? Breaking news is usually that someone is pregnant. This breaking news is about Hailey Bieber not being pregnant and cockblocking Us Weekly’s report that she is, and now they’re probably not going to run it. And she seems annoyed. It was also annoying when Justin Bieber did that By Lainey • Nov 06, 2020 04:01 pm

BTS Intro for November 6, 2020 Dear Gossips, One of our dogs started shifting and woke my husband up at 4am this morning. Instead of going back to sleep, he checked his phone first for US election updates. You know who didn’t go back to sleep even though there was an agreement for him to By Lainey • Nov 06, 2020 08:46 am
What Else What Else? I have always preferred Heidi Klum’s streetwear over her red carpet looks. Her casual clothes are so much cuter. Here’s another example – she’s wearing a sack dress, which is a life requirement for me, and a matching toque and it’s a good look. Or, rather, it’ By Lainey • Nov 05, 2020 04:04 pm
Marcus and Friends (dogs) Shawn and Camila: Dog Time Anyone who shares a home with a pet knows this well – dog, cat, rabbit, pig, hamster, budgie, whatever the animal, they don’t give a f-ck about the election and your anxiety is not their problem. They still need to be fed, walked, played with, groomed etc on their schedule. By Lainey • Nov 05, 2020 01:52 pm
Style Katie’s Leather Trench I have no business thinking about coats because where I live, it doesn’t look like anyone’s fashion-parading anywhere any time soon. But the fantasy is still there.

Intro for November 5, 2020 Dear Gossips, At the time of this writing, they’re still counting votes and the result of US presidential election is not yet known. Which means today might be as much of a mindf-ck as yesterday and the day before. And, as Sarah wrote yesterday in her piece about what By Lainey • Nov 05, 2020 08:50 am
What Else What Else? I guess it’s an annual tradition now and Gwyneth Paltrow is probably smug about it: the Goop Gift Guide. The annual tradition is actually to bitch about the Goop Gift Guide and some of the ridiculously expensive sh-t that’s included. They do it on purpose. If someone gave By Lainey • Nov 04, 2020 04:22 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tom Cruise: Mission Business as Usual Last week, the Sun reported that there was a COVID-19 outbreak on the Venice set of Mission: Impossible 7 and extras were told not to report to work. None of the Hollywood trades, however, followed up with a story (at least not that I’ve seen) and they’d be By Lainey • Nov 04, 2020 02:25 pm
Dita Von Teese Chris Pine in a Robe and Tux Yes, yes, yes, the Best Chris discussion is tired now and Chris Pratt got his feelings hurt and the Avengers had to avenge him so we’re not supposed to have Chris Competitions anymore and this isn’t meant to be a Chris competition, I’m just throwing up this By Lainey • Nov 04, 2020 01:05 pm
Relationship Assumption Katie & Emilio: Kiss in Chaos You know those photos that get taken in a crowd, usually a frantic moment, of a couple kissing?

Anyway, I’m not saying that these shots of Katie Holmes kissing Emilio Vitolo By Lainey • Nov 04, 2020 12:01 pm
Top Reads Letterman & Chappelle Last week when I posted about Adele’s SNL episode, I wondered whether or not Dave Chappelle would be back to host the show’s post-election episode and indeed it was confirmed that he’s returning, although I’m not sure any of the election-related sketches have been set or By Lainey • Nov 04, 2020 10:30 am
Intro for November 4, 2020 Dear Gossips, I knew on the weekend that I would need to stress-bake last night so I was prepared when I made my grocery order – and I decided I wasn’t using on-sale apples for my apple galette. This level of stress required the Honeycrisp, so I splurged on three By Lainey • Nov 04, 2020 08:52 am
