Smutty Surgery Ben Affleck’s Oscar face Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner were both at the Vanity Fair Oscar party on Sunday night. Multiple outlets are reporting that they spoke briefly and that everything seemed fine. Notable because, of course, just two days before that, her Vanity Fair profile had come out. And, well, we all know By Lainey • Mar 01, 2016 10:56 am
Maple Leaf Intro for March 1, 2016 Dear Gossips, Thanks for all your emails and tweets and messages in response to our Oscar posts yesterday. Duana and I got yelled at a lot. You were mad at her about Naomi Watts (click here for a refresher) and you were mad at me about Olivias Munn and Wilde By Lainey • Mar 01, 2016 10:03 am
Oscars 2016 Kerry Washington: Oscars Best Dressed (Lainey) I feel like maybe the photos you’re seeing aren’t representing what this actually looked like in person. I was a few feet away from her and she was ON IT when she was posing at the photo wall. The construction of this dress, the way the leather weaves By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 06:59 pm
Oscars 2016 Reese Witherspoon: Oscars Worst Dressed (Lainey) I got happy, so happy, the moment I saw Reese Witherspoon arrive. In THIS. And she’s not wearing it ironically. First of all, it’s taffeta. Also it has a breast addition on top of her breasts and an extra ass on top of her ass…!!! WHY IS THE By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 06:10 pm
Oscars 2016 Leo: the victory and the relief Before we begin, let us, together, enjoy this: The first time Leonardo DiCaprio got Oscar buzz was after starring in THIS BOYS LIFE with Robert De Niro. pic.twitter.com/OJ5JYkpufx— Sam Kalidi (@samkalidi) February 29, 2016 Duana sent that to me at 3am. It was better than caffeine. Leonardo By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 05:48 pm
Oscars 2016 Gwen Stefani’s Oscar Choices Gwen and Blake hit the Vanity Fair party, and as someone who stresses over outfits, I feel like this might be an even more stressful invitation than the Oscars. If you only get invited to the VF party, you have to gauge how ‘out there’ to go without the balance By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 04:40 pm
Oscars 2016 Jennifer Lawrence: the Oscar last I was still on the balcony last night finishing up some shots when we started hearing the commotion in our earpieces to try to time a standup for Jennifer Lawrence’s arrival. It was, literally, two minutes to show time. Literally. She came with David O Russell, took a few By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 04:32 pm
Oscars 2016 JT & Jessica at Vanity Fair “Who do you hate more – Justin Timberlake or Leonardo DiCaprio?” – what I just asked Duana a few minutes ago that resulted in a really fun discussion about who, really, is the worst. For her it’s Leo. And the difference is Saturday Night Live. In Duana’s mind, JT’s By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 04:10 pm
Oscars 2016 Alicia & Michael’s Oscar kiss “It came true.” Word spoken by another Best Supporting Actress a couple of years ago. But in Annie Hathaway’s case, it took a LOT longer. For Alicia Vikander? Seems like it was just 12 months, when she told W Magazine that she’d have three films in contention at By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 03:29 pm
Oscars 2016 Rachel McAdams: the Oscar rebrand Rachel McAdams presented last night with Michael B Jordan. MBJ did not walk the carpet. So there are very few shots of him, which is disappointing because, hello, he’s Michael B Jordan. Anyway, after they presented all kinds of people tweeted at me about Gossip Genie’ing the two By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 03:01 pm
Oscars 2016 Ryan & Russell: Oscar red carpet skippers Ryan Gosling didn't walk the carpet at the Golden Globes. It was predictable the moment they announced he would be presenting at the Oscars that it would be unlikely he'd walk the carpet. At this point probably not unless he's nominated. But he did By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 01:58 pm
Boy Sh-t Sam Smith: Oscar gay boy sh-t! Can we start with how that song won for Best Song? How f-cking uncomfortable too that it happened right after Gaga performed and had everyone sobbing in the aisles. It was AWKWARD in that theatre. Because, um, that was a sh-t Bond theme, wasn't it? Like By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 12:55 pm
Oscars 2016 Matt Damon's Oscar date night I should say "Oscar date weekend". Matt Damon had two dates all weekend: his wife, Luciana, and his best friend, Ben. On Friday there was a big WME party - Ben goes often. Three years ago I heard he was pretty drunk there and flirting hard with a tall By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 12:20 pm
Top Reads Jennifer Garner: Best Oscar Single I loved Friday. I loved it so much because of Jennifer Garner. God that Vanity Fair article. Click here if you missed my post on it last week. She threw down a lesson in public scolding without getting your hands dirty. Remember, I always did say she had the Amazing By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 11:54 am
Oscars 2016 Taylor's Oscar plunge Taylor Swift and Lorde showed up together to the Vanity Fair Oscar party. I guess Taylor isn't bugged that Lorde was holding hands with Diplo the other day. Click here for refresher. Whatever. All that matters is that there was this Alexander Vauthier dress she wanted to wear. By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 11:14 am
Oscars 2016 Olivia Wilde’s Oscar pleats The pleating is gorgeous on this dress. And especially at the back, around the neck. Once upon a time, Olivia Wilde could have been a best dressed contender. Here’s why she wasn’t last night, though, and it has nothing to do with the design or Olivia but the By Lainey • Feb 29, 2016 10:19 am
