TV Updates Mindy Kaling on her pregnancy Mindy Kaling is pregnant. But she hasn’t confirmed it herself. E! was the first to report the news last month and Duana discussed the peculiar wording of the announcement on Show Your Work since it was immediately followed by “don’t worry, she’ll still be able to meet By Lainey • Aug 15, 2017 11:50 am
Hook Ups Leo’s new bonafide? Sarah posted yesterday about the totally unimaginative decision to cast Leonardo DiCaprio as Leonardo da Vinci. It’s going to be a while though. The book on which the film is based will be released in October. The deal that we all heard about yesterday was about acquiring the book By Lainey • Aug 15, 2017 10:55 am
Relationship Assumption Pedro Pascal & Robin Tunney? Are Pedro Pascal and Robin Tunney dating? Have I been sleeping on this? Here they are yesterday in LA having lunch with her son. When I saw these photos at the agency I thought, oh, well they worked together on The Mentalist, so maybe they’re just good friends? But By Lainey • Aug 15, 2017 10:18 am
TV Updates Intro for August 15, 2017 Dear Gossips, The Emmys are 5 weeks away. Emmy voting began yesterday and ends August 28th so this, right now, is when campaigning is at its most intense. As previously reported, they’re now spending as much on Emmy campaigns as the Oscars and it’s an especially competitive year By Lainey • Aug 15, 2017 09:37 am
What Else What Else? It’s been over a week since we’ve heard from Meghan Markle and Prince Harry? They’re on holiday in Botswana for most of August. And the trip was planned so that they’d be alone most of the time, away from the public and the press. Of course By Lainey • Aug 14, 2017 05:05 pm
Show Your Work Podcast Show Your Work: Taylor Swift in court The jury is now deliberating in the Taylor Swift civil trial against (is that the right word? Against?) former DJ David Mueller who allegedly groped her ass during a meet and greet in 2013. Following Taylor’s testimony last week, the judge threw out David Mueller’s case against Taylor By Lainey • Aug 14, 2017 04:26 pm
Music Miley cancels on Teen Choice Miley Cyrus was supposed to perform at the Teen Choice Awards last night and they were giving her the Ultimate Choice Award, apparently the highest TC honour. Miley showed up for sound check. But it was announced shortly after the live show started that she would be a no-show. By Lainey • Aug 14, 2017 03:22 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tom Cruise gets hurt Tom Cruise was shooting Mission: Impossible 6 this weekend. For one particular scene he was attached to a harness and had to jump from a scaffold onto the roof of another building. As we all know, Tom does most of his own stunts. That’s one of his trademarks. He By Lainey • Aug 14, 2017 12:51 pm
Anna Faris Chris Pratt at Teen Choice The Teen Choice Awards were last night. And for most of us, they’re not much of a story today. Hardly anyone “notable”, by major headline standards, showed up and there’s also little to say about the fashion. That said, if you are a teenager, you might feel differently.

Relationship Assumption Katy & Orly together again? Katy Perry can’t keep a breakup. She got back together with John Mayer two times before it stuck. And now, apparently, she might be back together with Orlando Bloom. Katy and Orly were both at the Ed Sheeran show at Staples Centre on Saturday night. Fans took photos of By Lainey • Aug 14, 2017 11:16 am
Game of Thrones Brothers, Sisters, and Dragons It’s usually Duana who’s good for one bonkers observation/prediction every week during Game Of Thrones. This time it’s my turn. Is it just me or have you noticed that Daenerys Targaryen is wearing a lot more makeup this season? She’s back in Westeros, of course, By Lainey • Aug 14, 2017 09:50 am
Elizabeth Olsen Intro for August 14, 2017 Dear Gossips, The New York Times published an article on Elizabeth Olsen on Friday in the Fashion & Style section that I thought was totally normal and also kinda weird. As we’ve seen, almost all celebrity profiles these days include details about food. Charlie Hunnam orders a salad. Robert By Lainey • Aug 14, 2017 09:04 am
What Else What Else? Am I supposed to be into Josh Brolin? I can’t remember. I do remember him shading Ryan Gosling but I also feel like Josh Brolin wouldn’t be an easy man to live with, but maybe that’s me (probably inaccurately) interpreting what it must have been like for By Lainey • Aug 11, 2017 02:36 pm
Quiveration Hot for Skeet I don’t know if I could call someone “Skeet” to their face without laughing and/or making an asshole face. That said, I’m trying to decide if I should develop a Skeet Ulrich problem. Because I recently binged Riverdale. And even though I was aware that Skeet was By Lainey • Aug 11, 2017 01:53 pm
Amazingness Mimi is “not a mover first” Have you heard about this yet? I screamed when I read this article. Screamed. And thumped my fists on my desk. My beloved, the immobile Mimi, is currently on tour with Lionel Richie. Her unwillingness to put any effort into her performances has become one of this summer’s best By Lainey • Aug 11, 2017 12:50 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews “Some guy named Justin” Woody Allen’s Wonder Wheel will be the closing night film at the New York Film Festival in October. It opens December 1, which means that it could be an Oscar contender, not just because of the director and the date but also because of the star, Kate Winslet. Kate By Lainey • Aug 11, 2017 11:53 am
