Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Rihanna’s varsity dress Varsity anything. But I LOVE the way she’s wearing this oversized vest tee like it’s a dress. And the striped sports socks. And the booties? I wish the toe wasn’t pointed. But that’s just personal preference. By Lainey • Aug 08, 2016 01:38 pm
Dumbass When Scott Eastwood talks It’s exhausting. Or maybe it’s not. Maybe it’s the opposite of exhausting to be that stupid. The last time we caught up with Scott Eastwood he was narcing on other actors, in front of his dad, like the principal’s tattle-tale son, for staying in their trailers By Lainey • Aug 08, 2016 12:55 pm
BFFs Taylor was in the Hamptons too Gwyneth and Beyoncé were in the Hamptons this weekend and so was Taylor Swift.

Sports Gwyneth Paltrow’s pre-Olympic cupping On Saturday in Rio, American gymnast Alex Naddour competed in the team qualification with circular marks on his arms and back. Yesterday Michael Phelps competed in the men’s 4x100 freestyle relay with similar looking marks. Obviously, for me, this was the first person who came to mind: Remember when By Lainey • Aug 08, 2016 11:30 am
Sports Olympic Leslie In case you hadn’t picked up it on over the last decade-plus (if you’ve been visiting this blog that long) or in the weeks leading up to the Games, I am an Olympic junkie. Yesterday I yelled at Duana – on her birthday! – over text because she messaged me By Lainey • Aug 08, 2016 10:26 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Don’t blame the Third Best Joker As Sarah just wrote, Suicide Squad opened big this weekend despite sh-tty reviews but they’re already forecasting a possible 60% drop-off next weekend. Whoever you want to blame for that though, do not point the finger at Jared Leto, the Third Best Joker. Because he’s not in it By Lainey • Aug 08, 2016 10:01 am
Music Intro for August 8, 2016 Dear Gossips, A week ago today The New York Times reported that Frank Ocean’s long-awaited album, the follow-up to his acclaimed Channel Orange, would finally be released on Friday. The New York Times is a pretty f-cking legit source. But Friday came and went – no album. People now believe, By Lainey • Aug 08, 2016 08:59 am
Quiveration Obsession by half Aaron Taylor-Johnson was at the HFPA event last night too. But….when was the last time you saw him on a carpet with Sam? I’m sure it’s happened. I just can’t remember. Because they are always, always together. Not that there’s reason to worry. They’re By Lainey • Aug 05, 2016 03:20 pm
Award Season Campaigning JT’s Trolling the HFPA I couldn’t help it! I’m sorry! It’s Friday and I’m 6 hours from the weekend and a nice break and I can’t contain the bad jokes. Justin Timberlake was at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association event last night too. As I mentioned in the post By Lainey • Aug 05, 2016 01:40 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Emma before festival season The Hollywood Foreign Press Association held its grants banquet in Beverly Hills last night and there were some big names who showed up in the name of charity but with the side benefit (or maybe main benefit) of Golden Globes.

Maple Leaf Drake & Rihanna’s aquarium date Drake and Future performed at Madison Square Garden last night. But I’m here to tell you about when Drake was at home in Toronto last weekend for OVO Fest with Rihanna.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Dresses and platform oxfords This is my favourite Busy Philipps outfit of all time. It’s a good striped dressed that hits her at the perfect length. And then a pair of chunky platform oxfords instead of heels. Heels would have made this outfit a little too Reese Witherspoon. The dress and platform oxfords By Lainey • Aug 05, 2016 12:02 pm
TV Updates Black-ish at the TCAs I think I’ve made it pretty clear here on this site how much I love Black-ish. It’s my favourite comedy. It takes up space that I don’t give out easily on the PVR. Jacek and I watch Black-ish together every week. He actually gets pissed if he’ By Lainey • Aug 05, 2016 11:22 am
Sports Intro for August 5, 2016 Dear Gossips, Two fashion magazines were making headlines yesterday about feminism. Let’s start with Sarah Jessica Parker on the cover of Marie Claire. Last year SJP told Cosmopolitan that she prefers to call herself a “humanist” and not a feminist. This time, in Marie Claire, she declares that: " By Lainey • Aug 05, 2016 09:43 am
TV Updates Mimi Holiday TV Mimi was at the TCAs yesterday to promote her new “docuseries”. As she kept insisting to reporters there, don’t call it a reality show because what is reality? “I don’t know what reality is — literally. In terms of real and reality.” She has a point. Can you honestly By Lainey • Aug 04, 2016 04:28 pm
Media Manipulation Taylor Swift’s new pap walk I just want to show you something that I was sent (thank you!) on Instagram today. Watch the second half of this video. It’s ridiculous.
