Ex Games Intro for May 9, 2018 Dear Gossips, There are the Met Gala outfits…and then there are the after-party outfits. OF COURSE Rihanna had on my favourite after-party outfit. Her after-party, after all, was the one everyone wanted to go to. It was blue-silver pyjamas, left open to almost the navel, bra exposed. Please. She’ By Lainey • May 09, 2018 08:30 am
What Else What Else? I have not slept in a long time. Maybe it’s fatigue but when this photo popped up on my screen, it was like his dick hole was staring right at me. What must it have felt like for the person taking the picture? Is that how the photo ended By Lainey • May 08, 2018 01:02 pm
Style Rihanna: Met Best Dressed (Lainey) Well. Who the f-ck else would it be? I want you to picture her face and hear her voice while you’re reading that sentence – Who.The.F-ck.Else.Would.It.Be? Do you wonder if there was anyone else who dared to think about a pope hat? Or does By Lainey • May 08, 2018 12:26 pm
Met Gala 2018 Selena Gomez: 2018 Met’s Worst Dressed (Lainey) I wrote yesterday, ahead of the Met Gala, that since Selena Gomez would be repping Coach, I wasn’t expecting her to really be a major player on the red carpet because Coach hasn’t really delivered in the high fashion game. But then Letitia Wright showed up. In Coach. By Lainey • May 08, 2018 11:33 am
Met Gala 2018 Solange’s Durag: the Best Met Accessory In yesterday’s What Else I linked to a post by the Fug Girls about Solange, noting that she may have already won the Met Gala before the Met Gala event started because this weekend she posted 4 look combinations on Twitter asking her followers to weigh in. Not surprisingly By Lainey • May 08, 2018 10:37 am
Met Gala 2018 Gisele & Tom: Met’s Worst Versace Yesterday when I posted about Gisele Bundchen, I mentioned that I wasn’t sure if I’d be including her in today’s Met Gala coverage because of what happened last year, when she and Tom were co-chairs for the Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garcons exhibit and couldn’t be By Lainey • May 08, 2018 09:42 am
Met Gala 2018 Katy Perry & Evan Rachel Wood: Met Angel, Archangel Katy Perry and Evan Rachel Wood weren’t the only feathered angels last night. But they were the only ones I remember. Katy Perry is the most obvious angel, as befits Katy Perry. It’s not like Katy ever does anything subtly. So, of course, her angel wings are going By Lainey • May 08, 2018 09:07 am
Bad Style Bradley Cooper & Irina Shayk: First Met Carpet First any carpet, actually. Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk have both been at the Met Gala together. But they’ve never walked the carpet at the Met Gala together. It’s only taken them three years and a child. I’m curious about what this means. A Star Is Born By Lainey • May 08, 2018 07:58 am
Met Gala 2018 Kerry Washington & Uma Thurman: Met Best Hair All night I kept trying to figure out why people seemed so much more comfortable this year at the Met Gala. Is it just me? Didn’t they all look and seem that much more comfortable? My theory is that because of the theme, they were, ironically perhaps, liberated from By Lainey • May 08, 2018 06:15 am
Met Gala 2018 Tracee Ellis Ross & Yara Shahidi: Met letdown As I said yesterday, Tracee Ellis Ross is one of the ones I wait for. She was worth waiting for last year. This year though… Duana called it “Diana Ross cosplay” which, like, if there’s ever going to be anyone to cosplay Diana Ross, it’s Tracee Ellis Ross. By Lainey • May 08, 2018 05:20 am
Met Gala 2018 Jaden, Jared, and Trevor: Two Eye-rolls and a Stud at the Met Gala When Duana and I were lining up our coverage last night, we had a column called the “f-ck off” list. You will soon read who made the “f-ck off” list. Spoiler: a few Oscar nominated and winning actresses. Also Jared Leto. It was a f-ck off for Jared Leto at By Lainey • May 08, 2018 04:30 am
Met Gala 2018 Priyanka Chopra & Olivia Munn: Best Met headpieces My God this shot of Priyanka Chopra from the back: Now that is a statement. It’s SO f-cking good. And it’s exactly what a headpiece can do for an otherwise not-that-remarkable dress. Yes, it’s velvet in a colour that is deluxe as f-ck on her. But, really, By Lainey • May 08, 2018 03:45 am
Met Gala 2018 Frances McDormand: the best Met surprise Before tonight, did you know you needed this? Did you think that by the time the Met Gala 2018 red carpet was over you would be saying to yourself, well, sh-t, I’m so happy Frances McDormand was there? Nobody, OK? Nobody would have predicted it. And that’s why By Lainey • May 08, 2018 02:59 am
Met Gala 2018 Intro for May 8, 2018 Dear Gossips, So many tiaras! As expected, there were a lot of virgin brides. There were a few Matrix brides. To me, at least, it could have been a Cate Blanchett in Elizabeth and Gwyneth Paltrow in Shakespeare In Love theme party. But it wasn’t disappointing. There were some By Lainey • May 08, 2018 02:16 am
What Else What Else? Didn’t think it was possible but Willow Smith and I have something in common. The difference between her experience and my experience is that she learned about sex from it and I already knew about sex at the time. Another major difference? She didn’t see anything. But I By Lainey • May 07, 2018 04:41 pm
Bad Style Gisele on her way I used to be really, really excited to see Gisele Bundchen at the Met Gala. I think it’s because I saw her and Tom Brady in 2008 and the way they were that night, the photos that were taken, it was a moment that went everywhere. This is what By Lainey • May 07, 2018 04:16 pm
