TV Updates Blair Waldorf is Making History When I saw pictures of Leighton Meester at the Fox Upfront I actually shouted out, by myself, in my office the other day – YES! Because I miss her. Don’t you miss her?!? Are you a Blair? Or are you a Serena? The only acceptable answer to this question is By Lainey • May 19, 2016 11:53 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Krysten’s strappy shoes I generally don’t like strappy shoes like this. Crissy-crossy complicated laces – it’s become very… Kardashian. I especially don’t like the shade of red/orange that Krysten Ritter wore with this black cut-out dress. They’re better from the day before in a really pretty off- By Lainey • May 19, 2016 11:13 am
Drama Who owns the “Cannes eye”? Kristen Stewart and her romantic flameout Soko have both been in Cannes. So far there hasn’t been any overt drama. No screaming, no slapping. But that might be old-school drama. New school drama happens on social media. And this is what it looks like: Kristen showed up to By Lainey • May 19, 2016 10:43 am
Billy Eichner Intro for May 19, 2016 Dear Gossips, What’d I miss? A lot of Mimi, yeah. Thanks for your well-wishes yesterday. And I’m sorry again for the gossip interruption. Let’s get caught up. But first, today’s read recommendation, which was supposed to be yesterday’s read recommendation: The New Yorker profile By Lainey • May 19, 2016 08:54 am
Mariah Carey Intro for May 18, 2016 Dear Gossips, Big sorry. Have to stay dark today, still not feeling great. The timing is sh-t and I apologise for falling behind on the gossip because, as we say here, it's never *just* gossip. Hoping to be re-balanced by tomorrow. Sorry again for the inconvenience.

Style Kristen Stewart’s happy Cannes I wrote yesterday that Kristen Stewart seems like she’s having so much fun in Cannes. They seem to love her in France. And she’s loving them back. Look at her today at the photo call for Personal Shopper. She’s playing for the cameras. Not pouting…but playing! By Lainey • May 17, 2016 02:32 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kate Hudson in silver-white Silvery? White? In some light it looks lightly purple. What’s amazing to me is that it goes all the way up to the neck and there’s barely a side cut-out. It’s a refreshing style change for her, isn’t it? By Lainey • May 17, 2016 12:10 pm
Douchebags Adrien Brody has no time for “fodder” Adrien Brody is surprisingly not in Cannes (yet) getting off a yacht in a douche-brown leather suit. Nor is he at an art show turning you on with his awesome style. Last night Adrien was in New York at the premiere of Manhattan Night and to promote the film By Lainey • May 17, 2016 11:57 am
Movie Reviews and Previews A Loving Oscar Yesterday in Cannes belonged to Loving, the film written and directed by Jeff Nichols that tells the true story of Mildred and Richard Loving, who broke the law by getting married in 1958. How? Well she’s black and he’s white. And back then, it was illegal in Virginia. By Lainey • May 17, 2016 11:03 am
Siblings Intro for May 17, 2016 Dear Gossips, The May issue of Vanity Fair was dedicated to sisters – I wrote about it here in reference and comparison to Jacqueline Kennedy and Lee Radziwill and Beyoncé and Solange Knowles. Last night I read a great article about the Bronte sisters, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne, in The Atlantic. By Lainey • May 17, 2016 10:07 am
Quiveration Idris Elba, gunslinger New photos of Idris Elba in South Africa shooting The Dark Tower. People seem to be pretty excited to see him in costume as the gunslinger. I don’t know the story, so this means nothing to me. But Idris means a lot to me, and I think he looks By Lainey • May 16, 2016 05:17 pm
Photo Assumption Hand-holding vs hand-holding Kristen Stewart seems like she’s really enjoying this Cannes Film Festival. There’s a … looseness to her, at least from Photo Assumption, that I don’t think we’ve seen. Like she’s having fun. And she doesn’t mind if you know that she’s having fun. Like By Lainey • May 16, 2016 04:53 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Blake’s Cannes runway How did Cannes end up being a fashion show for Blake Lively? There were a lot of appearances. And so much bad fashion in those appearances. Blake doesn’t have a stylist. Blake is also, liberally, singled out often for her sense of style. That’s an issue for me. By Lainey • May 16, 2016 04:25 pm
Amazingness Mimi TV Ok, well, f-ck Game Of Thrones. Because it’s about to become secondary television after what you’re about to see. And what we’re all about to enjoy this summer… Mariah’s World. The first trailer. In which we see Mimi actually moving around during rehearsals. AND WALKING By Lainey • May 16, 2016 03:57 pm
Xenu Xenu gets unREALed E! just announced a new “scripted” series to its lineup at the upfronts. It’s a show called The Arrangement. And this… Isn’t subtle. In fact, it decided to be as UNsubtle as possible, down to the text at the end: Read between the lines. Lies… So do it. By Lainey • May 16, 2016 03:28 pm
Quiveration Channing Tatum in a bowler hat Channing Tatum is in London shooting the sequel to the Kingsman movie. Check him out in costume, in a beautifully tailored pinstripe suit and in a bowler hat. With glasses. If you’d told me before whether or not I’d be into Chan in this outfit before I actually By Lainey • May 16, 2016 01:56 pm
