Met Gala 2018 Madonna: the Met Gala’s Best Obvious Icon I’m just going to say it. We would not be here if it weren’t for Madonna. The theme is being referred to as ‘Heavenly Bodies’, and the dress code was also tongue-in-cheek-ishly ‘Sunday Best’, but the official theme is “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination”. Fashion wouldn’ By Duana • May 08, 2018 04:01 am
Met Gala 2018 Priyanka Chopra & Olivia Munn: Best Met headpieces My God this shot of Priyanka Chopra from the back: Now that is a statement. It’s SO f-cking good. And it’s exactly what a headpiece can do for an otherwise not-that-remarkable dress. Yes, it’s velvet in a colour that is deluxe as f-ck on her. But, really, By Lainey • May 08, 2018 03:45 am
Met Gala 2018 Ruth coasts, Greta commits: Met Gala black & white Like Lainey, I was very much looking forward to Ruth Negga’s look for the Met Gala. Her red Valentino at the 2017 Oscars is one of the best red carpet looks of the last 5 years. It’s not that Ruth didn’t adhere to the theme this year By Maria • May 08, 2018 03:14 am
Met Gala 2018 Frances McDormand: the best Met surprise Before tonight, did you know you needed this? Did you think that by the time the Met Gala 2018 red carpet was over you would be saying to yourself, well, sh-t, I’m so happy Frances McDormand was there? Nobody, OK? Nobody would have predicted it. And that’s why By Lainey • May 08, 2018 02:59 am
Style Amal Clooney: Best Met Theme Twist I had always assumed, up to now, that the co-chairs of the Met Gala were just chosen relative to what the theme might be, or, given that we’re talking about Anna Wintour here, even informed that they were being appointed co-chairs without being asked in so many words. But By Duana • May 08, 2018 02:26 am
Met Gala 2018 Intro for May 8, 2018 Dear Gossips, So many tiaras! As expected, there were a lot of virgin brides. There were a few Matrix brides. To me, at least, it could have been a Cate Blanchett in Elizabeth and Gwyneth Paltrow in Shakespeare In Love theme party. But it wasn’t disappointing. There were some By Lainey • May 08, 2018 02:16 am
What Else What Else? Didn’t think it was possible but Willow Smith and I have something in common. The difference between her experience and my experience is that she learned about sex from it and I already knew about sex at the time. Another major difference? She didn’t see anything. But I By Lainey • May 07, 2018 04:41 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Short Yet Delightful Name Updates A flying update today as we get ready for all things Met Gala – but no less satisfying, as we get answers to a couple of December questions. First there was this update to Letter Writing Win, Name Jury Out: Hi Duana, Sorry it took so long for the update. She By Duana • May 07, 2018 04:27 pm
Assy Style Gisele on her way I used to be really, really excited to see Gisele Bundchen at the Met Gala. I think it’s because I saw her and Tom Brady in 2008 and the way they were that night, the photos that were taken, it was a moment that went everywhere. This is what By Lainey • May 07, 2018 04:16 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Gabrielle’s pre-Met mullet dress Not normally a fan of dresses with skirts that are longer in the back than they are in front. Here’s why I’m not minding it on Gabrielle Union –it’s nothing to do with the sheer strip in front either. It’s because she’s wearing the multiple By Lainey • May 07, 2018 04:01 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jane in red and pink What is there to say about Jane Fonda other than…GODDAMN. This suit is a great suit, even though I don’t love the cut of the pants. I’ll clarify – I do not like them on Victoria Beckham or Meghan Markle. On Jane Fonda? Not a f-cking problem. And By Lainey • May 07, 2018 03:51 pm
Ruth Negga Met Gala: the ones to watch Well… I mean everyone after Rihanna. Who’s on that list? As you’re reading this, they’re all getting ready for the Met Gala tonight. Makeup and hair is happening. First arrivals should be around 6pm. Who do you expect to bring it? Solange, definitely. After Rihanna, it’s By Lainey • May 07, 2018 03:38 pm
Quiveration LMM and MBJ on GMA Lin-Manuel Miranda and Michael Bae Jordan were both on Good Morning America this morning. Typing out full names is a lot less fun than acronyms. They did interviews separately but when I saw the photo set of them each arriving at the studio, I started to think about how these By Kathleen • May 07, 2018 03:06 pm
Celebrity Social Media Smutty Social Media, May 7, 2018 Over the last few days, a radio interview with Khaled has resurfaced in which he talks about oral sex. Khaled, as the “king,” only receives from his wife (then girlfriend), and never gives. Now look, if Khaled doesn’t enjoy the downtown area, that is one thing. But I think By Maria • May 07, 2018 02:16 pm
Adele Adele’s Titanic birthday Adele is 30 years old. It’s a milestone – even Beyoncé acknowledged it on her website and she celebrated on Saturday at a Titanic-themed party, where she dressed up as Kate Winslet’s Rose from the movie and posed on a staircase very similar to the one in the film By Lainey • May 07, 2018 12:18 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Trey’s first portraits The Cambridges released the first official portraits of Prince Louis this weekend. Trey is being held by his sister, Princess Charlotte, who just celebrated her 3rd birthday last week. The photos were taken by Princess Kate.
