What Else What Else? Nicolas Cage is in love again. We know this because he’s holding hands with a woman and, well, for Nic, who never dates casually, this means it’s serious.

Maple Leaf Alanis: “Reasons I Drink” It’s music video week. Here’s another one and I think, of all the videos we’ve talked about today, including BTS, and I do LOVE BTS so much, and their video is epic and wonderful, but this one might be the one that affected me most.

Music Taylor Swift is “The Man” Taylor Swift’s strength is not subtlety. And she leans all the way into that – or away from it – in her video for “The Man”, which she directed, wrote, owns, and stars in.

What Else What Else? Apparently these two have been a thing for at least six months. I don’t remember knowing about this but it’s also possible that I didn’t commit it to memory because it’s been a while since anyone cared about Adrien Brody. But he and Georgina Chapman are By Lainey • Feb 26, 2020 04:09 pm
Music BTS Carpool Karaoke I feel vindicated today. Sasha’s been mocking my BTS obsession for weeks. This morning she texted, probably after watching them on Carpool Karaoke with James Corden.

The Milwaukee Bucks played the Raptors in Toronto last night. The Bucks have been doing a kind of WWE-inspired pre-game routine. Given By Lainey • Feb 26, 2020 09:20 am
What Else What Else? There are so many things I love about this post. First of all, the Golden Girls reference. And then the part where there was a high demand of interested participants but couldn’t get the link to work. Sorry, sorry. It’s just that my parents are around that age By Lainey • Feb 25, 2020 04:54 pm
