Beyoncé Intro for June 18, 2018 Dear Gossips, There’s a Chinese expression that applies to almost everything: One kind of rice feeds a hundred kinds of people. Sometimes it’s about how, despite our differences, in one way we’re all the same. Other times it’s an observation about the opposite – that you can’ By Lainey • Jun 18, 2018 09:28 am
What Else What Else? Gisele Bundchen covers the new issue of Vogue. And now I’m trying to remember the last time a model covered American Vogue. Because more often than not it’s celebrities now, right? Not that Gisele isn’t a celebrity. She’s definitely a celebrity. But her job is “model” By Lainey • Jun 15, 2018 04:34 pm
Lifestyle Sasha Finds: Summer slides My jam every summer for years upon years has always been about the utilitarian sandal.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Sarah Paulson – Outfit of the Week Yes. Yes. Yes, Sarah Paulson. YES. This is why she’s a style star. Because she doesn’t look at a dress like this and say, “Uhhh, I don’t get it”. She gets it. She gets that this is how pink, a basic AF colour, is made that much By Lainey • Jun 15, 2018 02:59 pm

Equality Issues Pitching Into The Abyss It started with one badass. Well. Many badasses. When Variety published their panelists for “A Night In The Writers Room”, there were 12 showrunners named – including 11 men. Names you know, like Judd Apatow and Michael Schur and David Shore. This was obviously bullsh-t, and was called out as such By Duana • Jun 15, 2018 01:10 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Ruth’s amazing print-clash dress Ruth Negga rarely disappoints. She is not disappointing me here in this clashing print dress in colours and directions that aren’t supposed to work together at all. But of course they do. Why not? It gets boring when everything lines up all the time, non? What I like about By Lainey • Jun 15, 2018 12:46 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Aquaman: Everybody’s Wet Tonight Aquaman isn’t due until December, and for the first time this decade Warner Brothers and DC Films have not sprayed us down with marketing every minute of every day.

Royals Royal Meghan’s: “best husband”, new earrings By all accounts, Meghan Markle’s first away day with the Queen yesterday was a success. I mean, it was pretty obvious on Her Majesty face, non? The day went so well not even the British tabloids, usually pretty reliable, could create a scandal out of the not-really-all-that-awkward moment when By Lainey • Jun 15, 2018 10:18 am
Gal Gadot Diana & Steve: shoulder-pads and fanny packs As Sarah wrote the other day, production is now underway on Wonder Woman 2 with Gal Gadot and Patty Jenkins returning as director.
