Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez’s divorce isn’t final yet? Also… not a surprise… now that she and Keanu Reeves are working together, the tabloids have already started reporting that they’re dating. Please. Give it time to breathe! I know I Gossip Genied this but I want it to happen for real – not a make-a-story …because sometimes make-a-stories drive people apart! (Dlisted)
Right. It’s June. Which means the World Cup starts in two weeks. What’s your office like around World Cup time? Because at my office, while no one will admit it, nobody is working, everybody is super intense. And it always gets weird and awkward when Italy is playing. Italy is NOT in the World Cup this year. Anyway, if you’re into the World Cup, does your favourite team correspond to your favourite kit? (Pajiba)
How do you feel about a water ride at an amusement park? It’s amusement park season. I love an amusement park. I love roller coasters, thrill rides, drop rides, all of it. The water ride though, I mean, I’m into it. But it really depends on wardrobe. I hate walking around with a wet ass all day. And I don’t want to get into my car with a wet ass at the end of the day. Sam Smith did not have wet ass concerns. (TMZ)
Holy sh-t this is a busy cover. There’s so much writing. All the writing is so many different sizes. I have a headache just looking at it. Is this the future of magazine cover art? Am I old for thinking it needs to be cleaner? More spare? Seriously, does this cover make you want to buy the magazine? I feel bad for Camila Cabello. Cosmopolitan did not do her any favours here. (Go Fug Yourself)
LeAnn Rimes’s makeup does indeed look terrible here. Mostly I think it’s the lip colour. And I think it’s because she hasn’t found “her” nude. For a long time, makeup companies thought that one person’s nude was everyone’s nude. This is bullsh-t. I hate a nude with a coral undertone. It took me until just two years ago to find my nude, a matte nude. That’s basically my whole life. And I’m not going to tell you what it is, not because I’m a withholding bitch but because I don’t think it will help you – my skin tone is not your skin tone. That’s what makes the nude search such a pain in the ass. It’s like six-pack abs: there is no shortcut to the perfect nude lip. You just have to keep looking. (Cele|bitchy)
My favourite long read of the week: The New Yorker’s profile of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. I love her all the time. I disagree with her some of the time. I want to understand her more and more of the time. She’s fascinating and brilliant and I’m obsessed. Which, by the way, she would hate. (The New Yorker)
