Intro for Jan 08, 2007
Dear Gossips, Am in Toronto til Saturday, reporting for eTalk from the studio this week, huge thanks to OLIVER BARRET at The Village Park Royal in West Vancouver for the wardrobe assistance including my favourite new chocolate brown dress – love, love, love. Golden Globes just a week away, award season frenzy has officially kicked off – Palm Springs Film Festival at the weekend, major star attendance, and if Cate Blanchett’s dress was any indication, she is going to absolutely OWN the carpet at the Beverly Hilton next Monday. Recent additions to the already power packed presenter list: Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore whose unharnessed breasts, if you recall, were much maligned following last year’s ceremony. Me? I liked ‘em that way…loose and free and deliciously on display, though apparently, my opinion formed a lonely majority of one. Also rumoured to be in negotiations for presenting duties – none other than Lindsay Lohan. Rumoured. In support of Bobby. Will keep you posted, even though she’s probably going to need a few more days to recuperate from getting her “appendix” taken out. Oh wait…never mind. She actually left the hospital the next day, didn’t she? On her own two feet, without much sign of strain, and WENT CLUBBING the same night… Appendectomy??? Please. Monday, live blogging, check back often for new posts, check archives under LAST WEEK for late articles you may have missed from Friday. Yours in gossip, Lainey PS. Check me out on The Hour tonight, Monday, at 11pm on CBC in Canada. My first major network talkshow – I’ll be dishing on how the blog began, celebrity blogging in general, and doubt plenty of verbal sparring with that sexy beast George Stromboulopoulos. Non-Canadian residents can download the clip starting Tuesday by visiting The Hour website here.
