Girlcrushes 73 Questions with Tracee Ellis-Ross Why is it 73 Questions? I’ve never bothered to find out. Does it have anything to do with 1973? This is my birth year.

No one was talking about how much her movie sucked because we were all talking about whether or not Big Little Lies would prevail at the Emmys. And By Lainey • Sep 22, 2017 11:58 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Dakota Johnson’s dragon bag Dakota Johnson is a Gucci favourite. She was front row at the Gucci show earlier this week. And modelling new Gucci, obviously. The dress alone is a standout. I love this 70s vibe, this 70s-ish print. But then you top it off with that clutch and it becomes fire. Dragon By Lainey • Sep 22, 2017 11:26 am

What Else What Else? I once interviewed Angelica Huston. She was very specific about the lighting in the room. We didn’t mind. Angelica was protecting herself, as older women have to do in an industry that often discards them. It’s one thing for Jennifer Lawrence to be badly lit now and again By Lainey • Sep 21, 2017 04:17 pm
