Movie Reviews and Previews Johnny Depp on the hustle You know what just occurred to me because I’m slow? Pirates 5 opens next weekend. You know what else opens next weekend? Baywatch. It’s Johnny Depp vs Dwayne The Rock Johnson. Sort of? Sort of, because Baywatch is R-rated. So it’s not exactly an even game. Pirates By Lainey • May 19, 2017 12:30 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Tracee’s khaki suit Is it just me or did you think about Meryl Streep in Out Of Africa when you saw Tracee Ellis Ross in this suit?

Relationship Assumption The Taylor & Joe timeline It’s almost as though Taylor Swift knew that Katy Perry would be releasing her answer to Bad Blood this week. And decided to take over the conversation. With a new boyfriend. I wonder if it feels even more satisfying to know that Swish Swish is not a great song. By Lainey • May 19, 2017 10:35 am
Music Intro for May 19, 2017 Dear Gossips, Earlier this week I posted about Katy Perry being a judge on the American Idol reboot and whether or not it’s a good move.

Movie Reviews and Previews I don’t think I can watch this movie Netflix has two films at Cannes and Netflix has been the source of all the bitching at the festival because they’re insisting on theatrical release for eligibility; the new rules take effect next year. If they were in place this year, Okja, Bong Joon-ho’s highly anticipated new film, By Lainey • May 18, 2017 02:58 pm
Jennifer Lopez JLO in the bathroom Jennifer Lopez was at the Robin Hood Foundation gala the other night in New York. Page Six reports that when she went to use the washroom, four security guards blocked other patrons from coming in so that she could be in there alone. So people had to queue for a By Lainey • May 18, 2017 11:26 am
Style The Cannes princess dress You know what makes me crazy? When people make fashion calls without considering what the event is. An outfit for the Oscars is not an outfit for the VMAs. The Emmys and the MET Gala are not the same. You can wear the most beautiful classic ball gown but if By Lainey • May 18, 2017 10:42 am

Style Wonderstruck in Cannes Have you seen Far From Heaven? I just checked – Far From Heaven is 15 year old this year. I loved Far From Heaven. Like many others, it’s my favourite Todd Hayne’s film.

Dumbass This is not helping the way you think it’s helping PEOPLE just published an “exclusive” on Johnny Depp today.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Lupita’s high collar high waist I wish this is what Lupita wore to the MET Gala instead of that orange feathered dress. Or at least something in the spirit. Because this is a muuuuuch better outfit. Isn’t it a much better outfit? The proportions? The high collar AND the high waist? The shoes? RIGHT? By Lainey • May 17, 2017 02:39 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Charlotte’s blazer-bomber I’m never surprised when Charlotte Gainsbourg gives good steeze. But that doesn’t mean it’s any less intense when she wears something I want. Like this bomber. With the subtle lapels. This entire outfit actually. I think I might need those pants too. By Lainey • May 17, 2017 01:49 pm
Media Manipulation Brad Pitt: good angles, baggy pants, and big questions Brad Pitt’s appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last night wasn’t an interview. It was closer to what he was doing with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show – although it wasn’t pre-taped and happened in front of a live audience. Does that still mean that By Lainey • May 17, 2017 11:55 am
