Faux Gossip Angelina Jolie: “no interest in dating at all” I posted yesterday about Angelina Jolie and the story coming out of Entertainment Tonight about how she’s dating an unidentified “older looking” real estate agent. ET is not Radar or Star Magazine. ET’s accuracy is generally much higher than the lower tier tabloids and whatever’s coming out By Lainey • Mar 28, 2018 09:58 am
Dumbass Intro for March 28, 2018 Dear Gossips, “There is pride to be had where the prejudicial is practiced with precision in the trenchant triage of tactile terminations.” Remind me, if I ever forget, to never alliterate again. That sentence, if you want to call it a sentence, is from Sean Penn’s new book Bob By Lainey • Mar 28, 2018 08:56 am
What Else What Else? If you don’t have a dog, does this make you laugh as much as people who do have dogs? Some people say that anthropomorphising animals is wrong. But how is this dog not all of us when we got busted for smoking in the backyard when we were teenagers? By Lainey • Mar 27, 2018 05:21 pm
Douchebags Sean Penn does not collaborate Sean Penn is promoting his book, Bob Honey Who Just Do Stuff. It’s a stupid-ass title. I can’t tell you if it’s a stupid-ass book but I don’t think it’s winning any awards and it’s because Sean Penn is a dick…but not, necessarily, By Lainey • Mar 27, 2018 04:43 pm
Bad Hair Chris Evans’s opening night Lobby Hero opening night on Monday in New York. This is Chris Evans’s Broadway debut and, as Sarah wrote last week about his profile in the New York Times, this is also part of a bigger plan: his post-Captain America career. So far the reviews I’ve read have By Lainey • Mar 27, 2018 12:01 pm
Top Reads Beckys and Biters: Who Bit Beyoncé? I can’t imagine that there’s anyone reading this who has no idea about the origin story but, if you don’t, Tiffany Haddish has been dropping breadcrumbs about it for months now. It started in February when she was interviewed in Vulture and she followed up on that By Lainey • Mar 27, 2018 11:06 am
Baby and Bump Obsession Angelina’s older boyfriend? Yesterday in What Else? I linked to a story about Angelina Jolie dating a secret British billionaire, which originated from Life & Style so, basically, bullsh-t. Yesterday afternoon Entertainment Tonight reported that Angelina does actually have a boyfriend – but he’s not a British billionaire: A source tells ET that By Lainey • Mar 27, 2018 09:31 am
Chrissy Teigen Intro for March 27, 2018 Dear Gossips, Two years ago we were looking for a “Becky” or, more precisely, “Becky with the good hair”. The BeyHive identified Rachel Roy as the best possible candidate. Rachel tried to deny it but…she still didn’t want to be anywhere near Beyoncé when Beyoncé showed up. After By Lainey • Mar 27, 2018 08:38 am
What Else What Else? Lena Dunham has a new boyfriend. He kinda looks like a cross between Orlando Bloom and Tom Holland. For that reason, since he’s a “mystery man”, I’m going to assume that he’s British and that his name is Simon. Lena and “Simon” were photographed in LA kissing By Lainey • Mar 26, 2018 04:23 pm
Show Your Work Podcast Show Your Work: Zendaya’s style weapon, Lena’s wardrobe, and a ticking clock Here are Zendaya and Yara Shahidi this week at the Kids’ Choice Awards this weekend.

Duana and I break down the secrets behind By Lainey • Mar 26, 2018 04:00 pm
Top Reads Being Tiffany Haddish What a great way to start the week. Not just Tiffany Haddish but Tiffany Haddish + Caity Weaver. Caity Weaver is exactly who should be writing a GQ profile on Tiffany Haddish. Before we get to Tiffany though, let’s take it back to February 2016, when Caity wrote about Justin By Lainey • Mar 26, 2018 01:47 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Mimi’s matching family No one is feeling themselves more than Mimi right now. No one. When Mimi is feeling herself, there are signs. We’ll get to those in a minute but first… Here are Mimi, Nick Cannon, and Dembabies at the Kids’ Choice Awards this weekend wearing matching family ensembles. Mimi matched By Lainey • Mar 26, 2018 12:20 pm
Top Reads No grownups Duana and I were at March For Our Lives in Toronto on Saturday. The final speaker of the day was a student from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. She deliberately did not identify herself, preferring to be referred to as “anonymous” because she wanted to focus attention instead on Carmen By Lainey • Mar 26, 2018 11:18 am
Maple Leaf Intro for March 26, 2018 Dear Gossips, Over the last few weeks we’ve seen the power of youth, potential, and emerging talent manifesting a possibility that previous generations have laid the groundwork for. I thought about this when Buffy Sainte-Marie came on stage last night during the Juno Awards. Buffy has been advocating for By Lainey • Mar 26, 2018 08:30 am
What Else What Else? Like everyone else, I am obsessed with Lena Waithe’s Vanity Fair cover story. It’s on the long list for the next Show Your Work podcast. If Duana and I don’t get to it this weekend, I’ll write about it on Monday for sure. Girl Sh-t! The By Lainey • Mar 23, 2018 03:30 pm
Royals Harry & Meghan at the saloon Prince Harry and Meghan, as mentioned earlier right before my rant about those dotted lines on their wedding invitation, just wrapped their day tour after making several stops in Belfast today. They’re visiting with young entrepreneurs, they’re checking out the Titanic exhibit, and they popped into the bar. By Lainey • Mar 23, 2018 01:30 pm
