Blind Riddles The gossip photo booth There’s a photo booth at one of the most popular celebrity restaurants in LA. And some really, really great gossip goes down, sometimes literally, inside of it. Here are some of the photo booth’s dirtiest stories over the last few months: An actor in a bad mood with By Lainey • Sep 09, 2016 10:56 am
Equality Issues Intro for September 9, 2016 Dear Gossips, Last night I read an article that pissed me off. It’s about the obstacles that women face in the United States when they try to access better birth control, specifically the IUD. But it’s not just in America. I have a friend who went to a By Lainey • Sep 09, 2016 10:01 am
Brad Pitt Brad Pitt & Marlon James Brad Pitt on the cover of T, The New York Times style magazine, interviewed by reigning Man Booker Prize winner Marlon James. The last time we talked about an acclaimed author interviewing a movie star for T, it was Jonathan Safran Foer and Natalie Portman exchanging super-try emails. Since Marlon By Lainey • Sep 08, 2016 03:45 pm
Hook Ups Gavin & Elin? US Weekly reported this week that Gavin Rossdale and Elin Nordegren went on a first date recently. Please please please will it be ok for me to just say this one thing because I can't help myself? Gavin and Gwen Stefani got divorced because she caught him cheating By Lainey • Sep 08, 2016 01:41 pm
Quiveration Garrett Hedlund at Tom Ford This is really just a post about Garrett Hedlund being really hot. Because Garrett Hedlund manages a pretty low profile. There’s not that much to say about Garrett Hedlund other than he’s not dating Kirsten Dunst anymore and she’s now with Jesse Plemons. Garrett’s next film By Lainey • Sep 08, 2016 11:37 am
Coincidence or conspiracy Swoki timing…and Kanye West I mentioned yesterday that for Taylor Swift, her friends are her armour. Here she is last night, back in New York, out for dinner with Lily Aldridge, making sure we can see that she’s all good even though Swoki is no more. Yesterday I received several emails from people By Lainey • Sep 08, 2016 10:13 am
Relationship Assumption Rihanna & Drake together in LA Stop mourning Swoki. Rihanna and Drake are still together (this time) so it’s going to be OK. Drake performed last night in LA. And, as I mentioned last week, because I am obsessed with them: Rihanna is scheduled to perform in Philadelphia on Saturday. Then she has a 3 By Lainey • Sep 08, 2016 09:15 am
Intro for September 8, 2016 Dear Gossips, You know that Lukas Graham song, 7 Years? Not my favourite. In fact, I think I almost hate it. It’s SO corny. And you can’t get away from it in bathrooms that play the radio. Have you noticed it’s always playing in the bathroom? Also By Lainey • Sep 08, 2016 08:40 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Renee’s regular red dress I say “regular” because this is Carolina Herrera and Renee Zellweger has been wearing Herrera forever. So this shape on her isn’t new. I’m rarely going to love a red dress. And I’m probably never going to wear a red taffeta dress, so this is not my By Lainey • Sep 07, 2016 05:04 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Keira’s pixel dress If you look too long the squares start buzzing, like an old timey video game. Funky, non? And it’s great as a jacket dress too. I don’t know why she went with those shoes though. Those straps are bothering me. There’s too many of them. And it’ By Lainey • Sep 07, 2016 04:18 pm
Top Reads Gwyneth Paltrow, the “punk rock kid” Gwyneth Paltrow has joined LinkedIn and written an essay for it. Also there’s an interview. You can watch that below. G is an entrepreneur now. So LinkedIn is her people. G’s essay is all about how she transitioned from her “old life” to her new one, as the By Lainey • Sep 07, 2016 04:01 pm
Faux Gossip Bond did not kill Swoki Radar Online came out with a story earlier this week about Daniel Craig being offered $150 million to reprise his role as James Bond and now that Swoki is dead, people are all like, oh Tom Hiddleston exited Swoki because he can’t use Taylor to be Bond anymore… BULLSH-T.

Break Ups Taylor’s tumultuous summer It started out great, didn’t it? Swoki happened with a romantic Rhode Island kiss on the rocks. Seems appropriate to use the word “whirlwind” to describe what followed the next few weeks with trips to Nashville, New York, LA, London, Rome, back to Rhode Island, and Australia. #Taymerica took By Lainey • Sep 07, 2016 12:31 pm
Break Ups Tom has friends too As we’ve seen the Swift Squad knows how to rally. In good times and bad times, Taylor accessorises with friendship. Her friends have become her armour. They also keep her newsworthy and they enhance her “fun” factor. Look! So many people want to hang out with her, she must By Lainey • Sep 07, 2016 11:40 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Natalie’s tulip dress What a pretty dress. Pretty delicate flutter sleeves. Pretty print. It’s breezey and light and I love it so much. By Lainey • Sep 07, 2016 11:13 am
