Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Natalie’s green Cannes plunge And once again I have small chest envy. Because this kind of a dress…it’s just so easy. It’s boring as f-ck, but for the colour, for Cannes. But you can imagine how it must feel, just hanging off of you like that, so comfortably, when you don’ By Lainey • May 19, 2015 04:22 pm
Hook Ups Pine & Bloom Not the name of a new hipster restaurant… Chris Pine was photographed having a kissy lunch in Hollywood the other day. Her name is Vail Bloom. Never heard of her in my life.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Emily’s Cannes sparkles The photo call dress from earlier today was so promising – click here for a refresher. And she went with silvery beads for the Palais?

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate Blanchett’s black Cannes bow I feel like this might have been the dress she was supposed to wear to the Carol premiere…and then decided the amazing Giles one, Solange’s MET Gala sister dress, was better instead. Click here for a refresher from yesterday. Good decision. This black gown is something you wear By Lainey • May 19, 2015 02:55 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Gwyneth believes in “having sex” Gwyneth Paltrow’s “crazy fit” body covers the new issue of Women’s Health. I love those bikini bottoms on the cover. I don’t know how practical they are, but they’re cute. And styling them with a grey cropped tee works too. As for the excerpts that have By Lainey • May 19, 2015 01:30 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Jennifer Lawrence & Nicholas Hoult’s mutant summer Yesterday while procrastinating on deadline and messing around on the internet (OK fine, creeping Brandon Flowers), I somehow came across this page, about whether or not Jennifer Lawrence could be the new Thor.

Style Emily Blunt’s Cannes debut Emily Blunt has been to Cannes for a few parties here and there. But I don’t recall ever seeing her at the Palais, representing her own film. It’s well worth the wait though as she was joined by Benicio Del Toro and Josh Brolin today at the photo By Lainey • May 19, 2015 10:12 am

Cannes 2015 Cate Blanchett & Solange Not shocking at all – they loved Todd Haynes’s Carol in Cannes. Cate Blanchett? Marvelous, as usual. And Rooney Mara’s performance is being called the best of her career too. They’re saying they could both be nominated for Oscars. Cate’s becoming like Meryl now. Whatever she does By Lainey • May 18, 2015 01:16 pm
Jennifer Lopez Enough Are you over it? I am so over the JLO red carpet dress which is pretty much her body strategically covered by some sequins and held together by pantyhose. Over it. Boring. At this point I can’t tell any of it apart. In a week I won’t be By Lainey • May 18, 2015 12:56 pm
Cannes 2015 Joy, Sadness, and Disgust in Cannes At the Inside Out photo call and presser in Cannes today. Hitfix is calling it one of Pixar’s “most creative films ever”. This is high concept, this is smart humour, and at the same time, totally universal. The reviews so far have been very, very strong. And the story? By Lainey • May 18, 2015 10:27 am

Taylor Swift The Taylor Swift Billboard Music Awards As if Kendrick Lamar not only appeared in the Bad Blood video but also rhymed on the song too. This is the triumph that opened the Billboard Music Awards. And that was pretty much the night: a coronation of Taylor Swift. Because you can pretty much coast on Kendrick the By Lainey • May 18, 2015 09:26 am
