Lainey opened with Squid Game this morning and I was also going to do that because my dumb ass hasn’t yet watched it because I want it in Korean with English subtitles and not dubbed (which I know there’s a way to do, I just haven’t yet). Everyone is talking about it and Liam and I feel left out. 

 

And if Taika says no dubbing, it’s no dubbing.  

 

US Weekly has a curiously buried story about Ryan Seacrest’s team having an intervention for him regarding his exhaustive work schedule. He has multiple jobs and pre-pandemic, hustle was something that was collectively admired, it was something to strive for. But there’s been a big shift in how people talk about their careers and what it means for one’s physical and mental health to always be engaged in some kind of work. There’s also been a shift in how we talk about the need to prioritize mental health and rest so this story has me questioning a few things: who was the source? And why? If this intervention did happen, what purpose does it serve making it public? How would that help Ryan? Either he has a leak on his team or the story is BS – either way it’s a problem. 

 

I thought Iggy Azalea was taking a break from music? But I’m not here to talk about that, I’m here to talk about her Scarface jumpsuit. Not a jumpsuit inspired by Scarface (which would be 70s style) but Scarface’s face on her legs. If I’m going to put a scene from that movie on my clothing, it would obviously be Elvira Hancock (Michelle Pfeiffer).

It’s very hard for me to mention this CB2xLenny Kravitz furniture collaboration without asking “who wouldn’t want to sit on Lenny Kravitz” but I’m trying to rein in my immaturity. 

 

Michael B. Jordan’s reign as PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive is coming to an end, so it’s time to put forth our best guesses for 2021. My guesses are: Chris Evans, Oscar Isaac, or Ben Affleck, who has had a JLo glow-up and it would tie-into the first Bennifer era (he was SMA in 2002). Come on, it’s genius.
