Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Margot’s BAFTA Chanel This one is polarising. Margot Robbie is a Chanel ambassador so she probably gets a first look at whatever’s the freshest. This is from the recent Couture collection, presented in January. I get why some people have a problem with it. This is not “pretty”. This is not “safe” By Lainey • Feb 11, 2019 10:47 am
BAFTAs 2019 Bradley’s two wins and first acceptance speech Bradley Cooper was honoured at the Palm Springs International Film Festival back in January and he gave an acceptance speech there but those awards are pre-determined.

Grammy Awards 2019 Gaga stays on brand Lady Gaga has always been extra. That word doesn’t seem large enough for what Gaga has always brought to her performances and to her overall aesthetic. She does everything BIG. She FEELS. She LIVES when she’s on stage. She’s Celine like that. Yes, Celine Dion is now By Kathleen • Feb 11, 2019 10:05 am
Royals The Cambridges and the stars Prince William is the President of BAFTA so this of course is a regular event for him and Kate. They seemed a lot more engaged this year than they were last year at the event, but that’s probably because she was pregnant and did not want to extend their By Lainey • Feb 11, 2019 09:37 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s stone dress We are definitely missing some Cate Blanchett this awards season. With Cate, it’s almost never boring. Even when you don’t like it, it’s not boring. Ugly is better than boring. This dress is not ugly, not at all. It’s Christopher Kane. Hilariously some people online are By Lainey • Feb 11, 2019 09:17 am
Douchebags Thomas Markle’s weekend dump I mean, it’s not like you weren’t expecting it, right? I was expecting it. Last week, when PEOPLE’s “The Truth About Meghan” cover story dropped, with comments from five of her friends advocating on her behalf, I wrote that: The upside is that Meghan’s circle is By Lainey • Feb 11, 2019 08:53 am
Maple Leaf Drake gets cut off This is the Grammys. Set those words to the tune of Childish Gambino’s “This Is America.” The track won Song of the Year and Record of the Year last night, making it the first rap song in HISTORY to win those categories. In its 60-year history, the Grammys only By Kathleen • Feb 11, 2019 08:31 am
Good for Gossip Jennifer Aniston’s two birthday exes Today is Jennifer Aniston’s 50th birthday. Her party was on Saturday, at the Sunset Tower. And as you’ve probably heard, it was probably the most A list guest list of any party in a long time. It could have been an awards show. It may have been more By Lainey • Feb 11, 2019 08:12 am
Award Season Campaigning The BAFTA Favourite Roma and The Favourite have the most Oscar nominations (10) this year. And, since it’s the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, The Favourite was always expected to do well at the BAFTAs.

BFFs Beyoncé is her own Grammys Remember the story that Lin-Manual Miranda told about the time Beyoncé came to see Hamilton and what happened when she met Jonathan Groff backstage? She loved his performance. And in particular she loved Jonathan’s King George walk, so much that she imitated him to him, telling him that, “You By Lainey • Feb 11, 2019 07:21 am
Grammy Awards 2019 Michelle opens the Grammys STRONG Well, if you want to start your award show strong, starting with Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama is one way to do it. I know that the only First Lady we acknowledge didn’t actually open the Grammys (Camila Cabello did with a performance I forgot about immediately after it happened) By Kathleen • Feb 11, 2019 06:57 am
Music Intro for February 11, 2019 Dear Gossips, There are going to be all kinds of think-pieces today about whether or not the Grammys are still relevant and/or how they can stay or become relevant again going forward. There’s no easy answer to that question. But no one can deny that the talent has By Lainey • Feb 11, 2019 06:31 am
What Else What Else? Tori Spelling has a problem with how her marriage is characterised. People keep saying she’s having marriage problems. Apparently everything is fine even though… everything. Do you think she would object to me describing it as “tumultuous”? Or are we just supposed to go with “stable” and call it By Lainey • Feb 08, 2019 04:44 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Is the Answer Unfinished? Hi Duana! I am expecting my first, a baby boy on February 11th, and some last minute help would be greatly appreciated. My husband and I can’t seem to get on the page about names (I like unusual off the wall names and he is a lot more traditional) By Duana • Feb 08, 2019 04:18 pm
Award Season Campaigning Richard E Grant: Oscar’s newest fanboy Award season’s best fanboy is a role typically occupied by Timothee Chalamet – at least it was last year and for part of this year. And it’s not even an official “role” since we only made it up for Timmy. Still. There was a vacancy, since Timmy is not By Lainey • Feb 08, 2019 04:01 pm
Lifestyle Sasha Finds: Antonym Baked Blush By now you guys know that I’m a sucker for a two in one product. If I can cut corners and still get the same results I’m down for the cause and that’s exactly why I’m loving Antonym's Baked Blush. It’s a highlighter By Sasha • Feb 08, 2019 03:40 pm
