Intro for Jan 25, 2011
Dear Gossips,
Just a quick note as I’m still at Sundance covering the festival for etalk, there will be no liveblog today. It’s a buzzkill. Especially when we could have talked Oscar nominations all hour. I will however be talking to an Oscar nominee this afternoon. More on that later.
As for the other nominations…
No major surprises, right?
Also…
Banksy is going to the Oscars. BANKSY. I wonder if he’s laughing his ass off. I wonder if Justin Timberlake is sulking in a corner.
A more extensive discussion to follow but for now, The King’s Speech is making a charge. Good. We need some suspense, since everything else seems like a foregone conclusion.
Yours in gossip,
Lainey
PS. Yesterday WIND Mobile launched an amazing competition called Best Conversation Ever asking people ‘if you could talk to anyone in the world, who would it be’? Entries are being collected online between now and March 9. Then WIND Mobile will actually go about making five of those conversations happen! And the best part? To facilitate those conversations WIND Mobile is going to donate more than half a million dollars to Canadian charities. If you want a chance to win, or want to vote on a charity you love, visit www.BestConversationEver.ca.
