Movie Reviews and Previews Everybody loves Emily There were some significant snubs today when the SAG nominations were announced. We’ll discuss them here and there in other posts later and what that means for Oscar. It’s a competitive year. That’s the simple, incomplete explanation. It’s also, as always, a popularity contest. And what By Lainey • Dec 12, 2018 04:21 pm
Music Ashanti doesn’t break the Internet Yesterday, I name-checked some male R&B stars of the early 2000s. The female stars I mentioned are ruling today’s charts (I will never forgive myself for forgetting SOLANGE, who am I?). Given those two pieces of criteria – being a man or having a current stamp on R& By Kathleen • Dec 12, 2018 03:00 pm
Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, December 12, 2018 Chrissy Teigen could post about literally anything and it will inspire “10 Times Chrissy Teigen Won Twitter” or “3 Times Chrissy Teigen was Relatable AF on Instagram” stories. Her social media feed is a cottage industry. I’m not mad at it – I really enjoy her and I think when By Maria • Dec 12, 2018 01:56 pm
Bad Style Bradley Cooper’s road to the Oscars I’m still laughing about Jezebel’s Thirsty 30 from the other day. Bradley Cooper was ranked #22 and while that’s not super high on the list, the fact that he’s been included is what’s funny because, of course, as we’ve seen, Bradley’s fronting like By Lainey • Dec 12, 2018 01:39 pm
Style JLo’s Second Act Jennifer Lopez is in the middle of the Second Act press tour. As Lainey has reminded you repeatedly, it comes out on December 21st and it’s a rom-com about work so naturally, we stan. Jennifer Lopez in a rom-com is my favourite Jennifer Lopez.

Show Your Work Podcast Show Your Work: The Oscar host, Megan Fox, and Oh Happy Day At post time, the Academy has still not yet announced a replacement for Kevin Hart as the host of the Oscars. There are rumours that they may decide to go with no host for the Oscars. This is, apparently, not a job that anyone wants. Or is it that no By Lainey • Dec 12, 2018 12:14 pm
Relationship Assumption More love updates: Timothee and Lily One of the main themes of the site yesterday was the romance update: Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse, the Beckhams, Gemma Chan and Dominic Cooper, and also Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn. All fine. Also fine – Timothee Chalamet and Lily-Rose Depp. They were seen out for lunch in New York By Lainey • Dec 12, 2018 11:44 am
TV Updates Luther and Alice together again Raise your hand if you knew Idris Elba as DCI Luther before you knew him as Stringer Bell. I can’t be the only one. Elba was Stringer Bell first, but Luther was his breakout role, the thing that made him everyone’s favorite leading man and the once and By Sarah • Dec 12, 2018 10:36 am
Jennifer Aniston It is impossible to dislike Dumplin’ Willowdean (Danielle Macdonald) is a Dolly Parton-loving girl who struggles with body image, an emotionally remote mother, and the recent death of the aunt who raised her. She has one friend, Ellen (Odeya Rush), with whom she shares a Dolly Parton obsession—they often have “Parton parties” and quiz each By Sarah • Dec 12, 2018 10:08 am
Shout-Outs December 12, 2018 – Smutty Shout-Outs Emily! Happy Birthday! New life. New job. New traditions. I’m so happy to hear about all your changes. You made those changes.

Movie Reviews and Previews Intro for December 12, 2018 Dear Gossips, Sandra Bullock was in Sao Paolo this week promoting her new movie Bird Box which premieres on Netflix on December 21.

What Else What Else? In case you missed it… this was the headline of the day yesterday, involving Julia Roberts and her “holes”, which are getting better with age. It’s a story made for Michael K and Dlisted because, well, only he could write an entire article about holes that namechecks Lohan, goop, By Lainey • Dec 11, 2018 05:02 pm
Relationship Assumption The Beckhams: still fine I’m not saying that like it’s a complaint. More like… sarcasm. Because it’s almost the end of the year and many of you spent several months this year worrying that Victoria and David Beckham wouldn’t make it to the end of the year. And they have.

Relationship Assumption Taylor Swift: the quiet guest Check out Joe Alwyn last night at the premiere of Mary Queen of Scots. Interesting pant length happening here. Why not show off those boots, right? I don’t hate it. But it’s definitely shorter than the usual, especially with the slight flare at the hem. Kinda like the By Lainey • Dec 11, 2018 03:48 pm
Relationship Assumption Gemma & Dominic at the British Fashion Awards Mary, Queen of Scots is getting mixed reviews. Here’s why I’m seeing it: for the performances from the entire cast, led by Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie, but also because the case includes Gemma Chan. An Asian woman in a British historical period piece! Big ups to director By Lainey • Dec 11, 2018 03:28 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Emily’s cape in Paris Emily Blunt just wore her best dress of the year a couple of weeks ago but this one is a good second – in Paris to promote Mary Poppins Returns.
