Movie Reviews and Previews This Is Life Itself Dan Fogelman is the showrunner for This Is Us. Season 2 of This Is Us just wrapped last night and Kathleen is probably still crying so the timing was perfect for the trailer premiere of Fogelman’s new film, Life Itself, opening in September, around festival season which, perhaps, means By Lainey • Mar 14, 2018 10:13 am
TV Updates This Is Us gets married God, I love a good wedding episode. The season two finale of This Is Us aptly titled The Wedding aired last night and it was a very good wedding episode. Ending this chapter with Toby and Kate’s nuptials was the obvious conclusion to a season that has been frustrating By Kathleen • Mar 14, 2018 09:48 am
Equality Issues Intro for March 14, 2018 Dear Gossips, Have you read Shia LaBeouf’s new Esquire interview yet? The highlight of the piece is probably what he says about Kanye West taking his clothes. Which is why Kanye has been seen in Shia’s clothes. Shia is contrite. Or, depending on how you look at it, By Lainey • Mar 14, 2018 09:13 am
What Else What Else? Michael K, as usual, is right. Norm Self is a GREAT name for a “fap star” and I would love if Duana could consult here on what she thinks of it, in terms of Norm’s career, although I suspect she’d dismiss it as “too easy” for her skills By Lainey • Mar 13, 2018 05:21 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: That Would Be Enough Hi Duana! We are due with baby girl number 2 in March and I'm stuck on loving-but-questioning the name Tory. I can't remember where this name came to me from but I already find myself calling her "Baby Tory" in my head, for some By Duana • Mar 13, 2018 04:13 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Lakeith Stanfield is Sorry to Bother You Lakeith Stanfield has given us many reasons to love him over the past couple of years. Aside from stealing every damn frame of every single TV show and movie he’s starred in, he also gave us this red-carpet moment that I will never forget. It was the moment I By Kathleen • Mar 13, 2018 03:48 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Olivia’s blue printed, belted dress I make it a point to actively dislike baby blue. Is this a true baby blue though? I feel like it’s more teal. Turquoise? Not baby blue, right? Whatever you want to call it, it’s not offensive at all. I’m into the print, and I’m definitely By Lainey • Mar 13, 2018 03:22 pm
Business of Hollywood Matt and Ben join the inclusion club I guess better late than never. The first person to publicly respond to Frances McDormand’s call for the inclusion rider was Michael B. Jordan. Next to the party are Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, through their Pearl Street production shingle. Okay. Fine. If they want to be productive allies By Sarah • Mar 13, 2018 03:14 pm
What Else Smutty Social Media, March 13, 2018 “The Meghan Markle power coat” is definitely becoming a fashion subcategory, and Mindy Kaling is the queen of statement pieces (even if she’s being modest). Her TV alter ego Mindy Lahiri had a wardrobe that popped, and The Mindy Project’s costume designer Salvatore Perez said it was because By Maria • Mar 13, 2018 01:53 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candid’s: Tracee’s off-white boots It apparently Boot Day on the Lifestyle page today – first Victoria Beckham’s and now Tracee Ellis Ross’s. These off-white boots are gorgeous, so buttery and decadent, right? And like Victoria’s, it’s the perfect leather and the perfect toe. Also I’m super into how she’s By Lainey • Mar 13, 2018 01:32 pm
TV Updates Katy Perry on Idol The American Idol reboot no one asked for premiered this week. Lionel Richie, Luke Bryan and Katy Perry make up the new judging panel. We've been writing about the strategy behind Perry's decision to do Idol since it was announced last year. In May, Lainey asked, By Kathleen • Mar 13, 2018 12:54 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Victoria’s caramel travel suit This is a pretty sick outfit on Victoria Beckham. The colour is great, not a colour we see too often. I like how the sleeves taper above the wrist. Am curious about the part that’s wrapped around her waist, creating a sort of drop apron effect. There aren’t By Lainey • Mar 13, 2018 12:13 pm
Break Ups Jen & Justin: back in LA and NY Jennifer Aniston isn’t on social media – at least not publicly. She does however show up on her friends’ social media accounts. And I wonder if that’s becoming part of her PR strategy. On her birthday, several of her friends posted photos from her birthday lunch. Now, pretty much By Lainey • Mar 13, 2018 11:45 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The Jared Leto Emo Yakuza Movie The last time I reviewed a movie for which the description sounds like a random Scrabble result, it was the whimsically insane Michael Shannon Christmas Bigfoot Movie. That movie is a gift from another dimension. The Jared Leto Emo Yakuza Movie, on the other hand, is some kind of punishment, By Sarah • Mar 13, 2018 10:57 am
Royals Harry & Meghan: giggling in church I’m obsessed with this video. This video is a shipper’s dream – it can’t be more than 2 or 3 seconds, a quick glance, but in that short time, there’s so much to take away. As posted yesterday, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle joined the Queen at By Lainey • Mar 13, 2018 10:32 am
Jock Smut Tom Brady’s TB12 method I’m pretty sure my family would only disown me over two things: 1. If I murdered someone and 2. If I became a New England Patriots fan. My family is very just and very into football. I think I could get my mom to help me bury a body By Kathleen • Mar 13, 2018 09:57 am
