Maple Leaf Intro for September 2, 2020 Dear Gossips, Today in celebrity birthdays… someone super uncontroversial: Keanu Reeves. Today Keanu Reeves is 56 years old. Which makes him the same age as Brad Pitt for the next three months. They actually started acting around-ish the same time. Point Break and Thelma & Louise came out the same By Lainey • Sep 02, 2020 10:14 am
What Else What Else? This is the kind of headline that is an instant click for me: woman finds out her ex-husband cheated by reading his NYT wedding writeup. CLICK! That’s exactly what happened. She never knew why her ex left the marriage. And now she does. My favourite part: she and her By Lainey • Sep 01, 2020 04:11 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Cate and Tilda arrive in Venice The Venice Film Festival opens tomorrow and here are Cate Blanchett and Tilda Swinton arriving ahead of the opening night gala. It feels so weird to be posting photos from a festival arrival – even though, around this time of year, this is what we do here. We see shots of By Lainey • Sep 01, 2020 03:42 pm
Relationship Assumption Trevor and Minka: A Serious Couple PEOPLE broke the news yesterday– and not because of paparazzi photos but through sourcing: Trevor Noah and Minka Kelly are dating.

Media Manipulation Angelina… while Brad’s selling champagne PEOPLE gave us the exclusive yesterday, the “real” reason behind Brad Pitt’s trip to France last week, when he was seen hooking up with model Nicole Poturalski – apparently he was there to ready the release of Chateau Miraval’s new rosé champagne and not just to spend time with By Lainey • Sep 01, 2020 10:39 am
BFFs Intro for September 1, 2020 Dear Gossips, As people close to Chadwick Boseman continue to publicly share their thoughts on his passing, it’s becoming even more obvious how committed he was to not allowing his cancer to affect his work – and their work too. Here’s Michael B Jordan’s tribute to his big By Lainey • Sep 01, 2020 09:14 am
What Else What Else? Garcelle Beauvais does indeed look very, very cute here – and I love this striped top. I love the fit: loose and slouchy but not super loose and slouchy and tucked exactly right. Tucking is such an art. You don’t want to shove too much into the waistband but you By Lainey • Aug 31, 2020 04:07 pm
Music BTS’s Victory Lap We talk about timing here a lot at this site – gossip timing but also work timing, how timing is a part of work strategy. Where BTS is concerned, how about this timing? They performed “Dynamite” at the MTV VMAs last night, their first appearance at the VMAs, and picked up By Lainey • Aug 31, 2020 02:58 pm
Quiveration Maluma’s VMA Drive-in I’ve never been to a drive-in movie. I really want to. And probably it will happen since COVID-19 has made the drive-in experience a thing again. Last night Maluma delivered a live drive-in performance during the MTV VMAs that was one of the best of the night, not only By Lainey • Aug 31, 2020 02:08 pm
Media Manipulation Brad Pitt’s Champagne Diversion This is such a bonkers gossip story, I’m having a hard time believing that Brad Pitt, one of the world’s biggest movie stars, is at the center of it. And while it shouldn’t be funny, there’s a dark, twisted humour to it – that the current gossip By Lainey • Aug 31, 2020 12:25 pm
Music Lady Gaga’s Masked VMAs Typically at an award show, we talk about fashion. And there was a carpet last night at the VMAs but obviously it wasn’t much of a display, not at all really. The only fashion story worth talking about then is probably Lady Gaga. There was a LOT of Lady By Lainey • Aug 31, 2020 11:29 am
Music Keke Palmer and the MTV VMAs When Cody wrote a few weeks ago about Keke Palmer being named host of the MTV VMAs he mentioned that Keke “always commits to a bit”, which is exactly what she gave us last night. Was every bit funny? No. Did every joke work? No. But what matters is that By Lainey • Aug 31, 2020 10:39 am
Chadwick Boseman Intro for August 31, 2020 Dear Gossips, Like so many of you, I watched Black Panther again this weekend – a few times. And it’s not like I haven’t seen it multiple times already. Now though, of course, the film pulses with even more resonance, revealing even more layers to what was already a By Lainey • Aug 31, 2020 09:28 am
What Else What Else? I’ve never seen a full episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians so I wasn’t aware that this is a Kris Jenner catchphrase. And… I don’t hear it a lot in my bubbles. I’m the minority though because it’s a thing – and it’s enough By Lainey • Aug 28, 2020 04:10 pm
TV Updates BLACKPINK x Selena serve ALL the looks Sasha texted me this morning after watching the video for BLACKPINK and Selena Gomez’s new song “Ice Cream” writing… “This is a JAM”. It is indeed a jam. A suggestive jam, not super overtly suggestive, but it’s pretty clear what they’re getting at with these lyrics off By Lainey • Aug 28, 2020 12:49 pm
