SAG Awards 2018 You Need Gina Rodriguez In Your Life I am all about the SAG awards having only female presenters, and it was pleasantly not noticeable in the way that men must feel all the time but I was of the opinion that Gina Rodriguez presenting with Megan Mullally was a slightly odd pairing, first of all, and a By Duana • Jan 22, 2018 08:34 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Yara’s SAG jumpsuit Have you been watching grown-ish? It gets better and better every episode. And they’re really going for it in how they’re presenting college life. This is not “safe” afternoon programming for innocent adolescents. These are young people pulling all-nighters, partying more than they’re studying, and casually dropping By Lainey • Jan 22, 2018 08:04 am
Gorgessity Tracee Ellis Ross: on agency and shoes As Duana just noted, there were a LOT of sequins going on last night. Every other dress glittered. Tracee Ellis Ross glittered in a breathtaking white Ralph & Russo gown with a wrap-around cape situation that fell off one shoulder. She looked magnificent. Tracee was there as part of the By Lainey • Jan 22, 2018 07:45 am
SAG Awards 2018 Kristen Bell, First Host The SAG awards doesn’t get enough credit for being its own kind of weirdo awards show. It’s mercifully brief, there aren’t really ‘bits’ aside from the whole “I am an actor” business, and am I the only one who likes the whole long, slanted tables so nobody’ By Duana • Jan 22, 2018 07:28 am
Equality Issues Intro for January 22, 2018 Dear Gossips, Viola Davis won the Best Supporting Actress Screen Actors Guild Award last year for her work in Fences and she went on to win the same award at the Oscars.

What Else What Else? Colin Firth has released a statement about Woody Allen. Well, more like a sentence, really. And it’s hard to read tone into it. Which is good, in the one sense, because that statement is clear, definitive, leaves no room for interpretation. But… why do I keep hearing, like, exasperation By Lainey • Jan 19, 2018 04:33 pm
Name Nerd CHICAGO WEST Noooooope this is not the way any of us thought this was going to go. Not one of us. Don’t you lie. Nobody saw this coming. About a month ago Lainey really latched onto my suggestion of ‘Truth’ -- and I mean, based on ‘North’ and ‘Saint’, I felt By Duana • Jan 19, 2018 04:20 pm
Lifestyle Sasha Finds: Winter swimwear If you live on the east coast then you have no feeling in any of your appendages because holy f-ck this winter has been so damn cold.

Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Hemsworth in 12 Strong In what is hopefully the last gasp of his typical Hollywood action career, before he fully embraces his destiny as a comedy grunt, Chris Hemsworth stars in 12 Strong, a movie so patriotic and mediocre you’d think it was directed by late-era Clint Eastwood. But it’s not, it’ By Sarah • Jan 19, 2018 03:05 pm
Celebrity Social Media Smutty Social Media, January 19, 2018 Over the holidays I read Celeste Ng’s newest book, Little Fires Everywhere. I absolutely love her work. Celeste posted this exchange with her mother on Instagram, and a lot of people didn’t get it. Their parent must not be immigrants. If I told my mom I had a By Maria • Jan 19, 2018 01:50 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews The new Heathers It's my birthday. Lainey has told you how obnoxious I usually am on my birthday. I force everyone to treat me like Beyoncé all day.

Show Your Work Podcast Show Your Work: How Ellen Pompeo got paid The best read of the week, and what will be one of the best reads of the year, was Ellen Pompeo’s interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

Michael Douglas The case against Michael Douglas Ten days ago, Michael Douglas reached out to Deadline to get ahead of a sexual harassment story that was coming out against him.

Movie Reviews and Previews Does anyone care about Tomb Raider? Lainey emailed me about the new Tomb Raider trailer and my response was: “I am so unmoved by these trailers.” The first trailer at least had Walton Goggins with his hair halfway standing up, but this trailer shows us even more Goggins, and I am sad to report, his hair By Sarah • Jan 19, 2018 11:10 am
Royals The timing of Prince William’s haircut There was an interesting article that came out earlier this week about royal scheduling.

Tracee Ellis Ross Intro for January 19, 2018 Dear Gossips, The Screen Actors Guild Awards are happening on Sunday. Will you watch? The SAGs aren’t as highly rated as the Golden Globes or the Grammys or the Oscars. And there’s some kind of football game on the same night. But, as we’ve seen, this award By Lainey • Jan 19, 2018 09:44 am
