Media Manipulation Penelope Does Everything, Too Sometimes I almost feel bad for the really good actresses who can’t just act anymore. They also have to be singers, designers, chefs, perfumers, models and winemakers. Everyone Does Everything (EDE Syndrome) is real and it’s part of the reality of building a long-lasting, lucrative career. Gwyneth By Maria • Jan 11, 2013 12:53 pm
Famewhores Kate Bosworth at 30 Whenever I see anything on Kate Bosworth, I immediately send it to Lainey because I know Kate holds a place in her heart (right next to Emmy Rossum). Kate turned 30 on January 2 and it was probably going to get her some good holiday coverage (since it’s a By Maria • Jan 04, 2013 10:00 am
Baby and Bump Obsession Jennifer Garner set the Mom bar Jennifer Garner was recently voted Celebrity Mother of the Year by Today’s Parent Magazine. We can now vote on good parenting, as if it’s a singing competition or best dressed list. Motherhood has become such an intricate part of celebrity culture that it should be commoditized, like a By Maria • Dec 24, 2012 01:36 pm
Media Manipulation How the Mighty has stumbled Mighty Oprah Winfrey has felt a lot less … mighty these days, hasn’t she? On Friday, Oprah abruptly fired CAA and her agent Kevin Huvane, who is incredibly powerful in his own right. His past and present roster includes Meryl Streep, Penelope Cruz, Jennifer Aniston, Sandra Bullock, Tom Cruise, Brad By Maria • Dec 24, 2012 11:44 am
Aaron Paul Aaron Paul Drives a Lambo? Aaron and I hit a bump last week. First, Sarah brings up Aaron’s Ciroc commercial (or as the marketing team calls it, “short film”). It’s from last year. Ciroc is repped by Diddy and I’m not gonna lie, I took some heat about that from the LaineyGossip By Maria • Dec 17, 2012 12:08 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Look at my bebe: Drew Barrymore Edition As Lainey scooped last week, Drew Barrymore has indeed sold family photos to PEOPLE for the cover. Eyes closed, big smile, baby Olive looking … like babies do. Nine weeks is quite young, they aren’t super animated at that age. But I always wonder about celebrities married to civilians. How By Maria • Dec 13, 2012 10:52 am
Baby and Bump Obsession Drew’s New Mom Jazz Hands First Anne Hathaway had them at the Actress roundtable, then Ben Affleck at the Directors’ roundtable, and now Drew Barrymore was on Ellen yesterday, and was jazz-handing all things Olive. I’m with Duana, I like the name and I think the story of how they came up with By Maria • Dec 07, 2012 01:49 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Why you mad, Weight Watchers? Jessica Simpson has been pretty quiet since US Weekly’s OMG! She’s pregnant again cover. There’s been no official confirmation (or denial) but at this point it’s looking pretty solid. She is expecting again less than a year after having Maxwell. There’s always someone who gets By Maria • Dec 06, 2012 04:44 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Sienna’s New Mum Glow Sienna covers the Harper’s Bazaar UK January issue with a 60s-style photoshoot and interview. A few excerpts have been released and of course the quotes grabbing the most attention are about her mothering style, her “post-baby body” and thoughts on having help. I’m seriously digging Sienna By Maria • Nov 30, 2012 02:29 pm
Chevy Chase Chevy Leaves Community: I continue to shrug (Lainey: last May, Maria and Sarah point-counterpointed about Community. Click here and here for those articles. This is Maria’s counterpoint to Sarah’s article, posted earlier today, about Chevy Chase’s departure.) After a protracted temper tantrum, Chevy Chase has finally left Community. The show is pretty much By Maria • Nov 23, 2012 03:15 pm
Anne Hathaway 7 Contenders (but soon there’ll be 5) The Hollywood Reporter has posted its video/transcript of the 2012 Actress Roundtable – 7 women were invited (Anne Hathaway, Amy Adams, Sally Field, Naomi Watts, Rachel Weisz, Helen Hunt and Marion Cotillard), but as we know only 5 will be nominated, and there’s no guarantee it will be 5 By Maria • Nov 20, 2012 02:10 pm
Parent Pimps Gwen & Jessica: Phone Moms Do you let your kid play with your phone? I do, and it’s become so bad that last night he hid my iPhone in his toy box. He’s sent texts, has called people and erased apps, and gotten it so wet it had to be replaced. All my By Maria • Nov 16, 2012 04:05 pm
Girly Throw Downs Jonah doesn’t like bellmen (or CNN) If writing for Lainey Gossip has taught me anything, it’s this: always screen cap a celebrity Twitter feed. Last night, a bizarre spat broke out between CNN anchor Don Lemon and Jonah Hill. Lemon ran into Hill at a hotel, said hello (as people do), and concluded that it By Maria • Nov 09, 2012 02:43 pm
Famewhores Baby Ten goes for a walk so you can meet him Judging by how close-up the shots are, it’s a set-up. (Lainey: it is indeed. These are FilmMagic photos -- and they don’t “pap”. They’re being sold via Getty Images as “exclusive coverage”. There’s nothing accidental about them. They’re not cheap either. So I decided By Maria • Nov 08, 2012 04:31 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Sienna’s Esoteric Pregnancy WARNING: NUDE ART Sienna Miller posed nude for artist Jonathan Yeo, and the work will be displayed at an exhibition in Berlin. Vogue UK has the portrait: it is stunning. Mother Sienna has been quiet, really. For all her mid-20s attention-seeking behavior and personal drama, Sienna is not By Maria • Nov 06, 2012 04:11 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Drew goes low-classy I’ve been very confused by Drew’s pimping game lately. On the one hand, she sold her wedding photos to PEOPLE, which was very pedestrian of her, but she didn’t sell her baby photos, which shows a modicum of restraint. She’s not offering up her mommy tips By Maria • Nov 05, 2012 01:50 pm
