Mel Gibson Intro for December 13, 2016 Dear Gossips, “I am one tough mother-¬f---er and you can’t bother me anymore. You ask anybody what their number one fear is and it’s public humiliation.

Beyoncé Beyonce & Mimi…and Lionel Richie As you know, it’s now an annual tradition. The elusive VOLUPTUARY plays a series of holiday shows in NYC every year.

Gossip Genie Drake & JLO Business first. Drake previously told us that his new album, More Life, which he described as a “playlist”, was due this month.

Critics' Choice Awards Fall 2016 Awards season JT Justin Timberlake did not win a Critics’ Choice Award last night for Can’t Stop The Feeling. I guess I should mention here that they played the song when he took the stage to present last night and he was like, bah, make it stop. Which is supposed to mean By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 01:45 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Michelle’s boring Critics See previous post about Kate Beckinsale. The Critics’ Choice Awards is not the event where you pull out your best. That said… I mean, she’s still going to be a nominee through this entire award season. She was just nominated for a Golden Globe this morning. And this dress? By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 01:12 pm
Critics' Choice Awards Fall 2016 Donald & Darius at Critics’ Choice What’s on your binge list during the holidays? If you haven’t watched Atlanta, you should add it. The episode about Vanessa, Donald Glover’s on-off girlfriend, was probably one of the best half hours of television I’ve seen all year. This is not an original thought.

Charlie Hunnam Charlie’s many date changes Good start to the week. New photos of Charlie Hunnam, seen here shopping in LA on Saturday with long-time girlfriend Morgana. He looks GOOD. His hair is shorter than it was last time we saw him. I am not complaining. Charlie’s been shooting the Papillon remake the last By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 11:48 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kate’s Critics’ Oscar dress For most people at Critics’ Choice, especially on the film side, they’re not bringing their A dresses. Consider that we still have the Globes and the SAGs and then the Oscars to come. Compared to those events, nobody cares about Critics’ Choice. Kate Beckinsale, as I’ve been saying By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 11:32 am
Natalie Portman Another year for Robert Pattinson & FKA twigs Robert Pattinson and FKA twigs were last papped together in October. At least that’s how I remember it. These two are pretty undercover. So when months go by and they’re not seen, there’s always speculation that it might be over. I should specify here that there’s By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 11:02 am
Critics' Choice Awards Fall 2016 Team Burgundy The men of The People vs OJ Simpson came colour-coordinated to the Critics’ Choice Awards last night.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kerry’s Critics’ sheer and stars Like Sasha, I can’t resist a star print. And I love the way it’s done here, on the sheer. The designer surprised me though. It’s Elie Saab. And it’s not boring! In other Kerry news, she and her husband, Nnamdi Asomugha made a rare appearance together By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 10:11 am

Kate McKinnon Intro for December 12, 2016 Dear Gossips, As John Oliver said on the last episode of his show last month, F-ck You 2016. But while 2016 has overwhelmingly laid down more sh-ts than hits, there are some who were able to rise above the hell, a welcome light in a swamp of feces. By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 08:38 am
Amazingness Mimi, voluptuary I read the best article about Mimi in the New York Post this morning. Best as in hilarious. Hilarious as in… bitchy and stanny at the same time. Even the title cracked me up: How Mariah Carey turned Christmas into a second career Like if you asked her, oh hey, By Lainey • Dec 09, 2016 04:13 pm
Music Taylor Swift in February People lost their minds last night because Taylor Swift and Zayn Malik released a song.
