What Else What Else? I don’t automatically dislike a “too much” outfit. Sometimes too much is just enough. That said, what’s too much for me about Kylie Cantrell’s look here is the coat.

Douchebags Ben Affleck: A Thanksgiving Update Late in the day, PEOPLE posted an exclusive about Ben Affleck and how he’d be spending American Thanksgiving.

What Else What Else? There was a bit of an uproar earlier this week when it was reported that Ariana Grande was paid 15x more for Wicked than Cynthia Erivo.

Baby and Bump Obsession Jodie Turner-Smith’s team travel This post was originally just going to be about Jodie Turner-Smith’s looks in New York this week while promoting The Agency.

Movie Reviews and Previews Zac and Phoebe are Famous This sounds like the title of a YA book from the 2000s– Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist, Naomi & Ely’s No Kiss List, Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares… I used to read them compulsively and haven’t had that much time over the last few years, By Lainey • Nov 27, 2024 12:23 pm
TV Updates Intro for November 27, 2024 Dear Gossips, Yesterday, to mark the one month countdown to the release, Netflix dropped the official trailer for Squid Game season two.

Movie Reviews and Previews Missing Timmy Last week I mentioned in a couple of posts that the first screenings for A Complete Unknown were taking place and that we should be hearing initial reactions.

BFFs Pre-Thanksgiving with Scarjo, Sienna, and JLaw Scarlett Johansson was on Live! with Kelly and Mark today in New York. This caught my eye because Scarjo doesn’t have a movie to promote right now so, even though I haven’t watched the episode, presumably she was there not on a press tour for a film or By Lainey • Nov 26, 2024 12:00 pm
Style Gwyneth Paltrow: A Sweater and a Suspect For over a decade, we’ve been rhapsodising about a cream knit sweater here at LaineyGossip.

What Else What Else? I posted earlier about Angelina Jolie’s subdued look at the Torino Film Festival. And Sharon Stone showed up in the opposite style energy.

Amazingness The “Glen-terprise” As expected, since the Timothée Chamalet lookalike contest a few weeks ago, the copycats have been relentless.
