Assy Hair Angelina Jolie: feathers and new friends Angelina Jolie and Loung Ung attended the Critics’ Choice Awards last night representing First They Killed My Father. In The Fade ended up winning the category but it looked like they had a great time, both on the carpet and inside. Let’s get the fashion out of the way By Lainey • Jan 12, 2018 02:29 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Saoirse’s bloused sequins I have come to love a pre-bloused dress. I don’t think, 10 years ago, I would have considered it. But I love it now and have learned to appreciate that it’s a tricky design feature that, when done well, and it’s done very, very well here, is By Lainey • Jan 12, 2018 01:30 pm
Style Jessica Biel, unblocked Jessica Biel was at the Critics’ Choice Awards last night for The Sinner. She was nominated for Best Actress in a Movie Made For TV Or Limited Series. Jessica lost to Nicole Kidman but I’m going to count last night as a win for her because she looked AMAZING By Kathleen • Jan 12, 2018 01:15 pm
TV Updates Give Sterling K. Brown all the awards I say this often. Put Sterling K. Brown in everything. Give him all the awards. He is the reason This Is Us is so great. He is an exceptional speech giver. He’s generally a beacon of light and joy and a reminder that there is good in this world. By Kathleen • Jan 12, 2018 01:00 pm
Music Taylor Swift’s End Game video Taylor Swift premiered the video for End Game last night, the third video off reputation after Look What You Made Me Do and Ready For It. This is the video, you’ll recall, that was rumoured to feature Katy Perry because there was a dancer who resembles Katy in one By Lainey • Jan 12, 2018 12:28 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jessica & Greta in green and white pleats I don’t know why green always shows up on red carpets in singles. As in, after award shows, there are often fashion headlines like, “the red parade at the Oscars!” or “silver storms the red carpet at the Golden Globes!. But… is it ever green? And if not, why By Lainey • Jan 12, 2018 11:49 am
Ted Danson Ted Danson can still get it Angelica Jade Bastién wrote a piece for Vulture posted yesterday called “The Hilarity and Horror of Ted Danson on The Good Place.” Bastien’s essay is so on point it prompted me to have a solid 20 minute conversation with my friend Brian about how underrated The Good Place is.

Gorgessity Gal Gadot’s close-up Gal Gadot was presented with the #SeeHer Award at Critics’ Choice last night. In, like, 2 years or whatever, when hashtags aren’t used anymore, how are they going to feel about naming an award and styling it like this with a hashtag? In 25 years, will that look stupid By Lainey • Jan 12, 2018 10:37 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Kumail and Emily’s big win “Shut up, listen and amplify.” That’s how Kumail Nanjiani chose to end his acceptance speech at last night’s Critics’ Choice Awards. Coming off the Golden Globes where men barely acknowledged the recent seismic shift in their industry which is entirely a THEM problem, it was nice to hear By Kathleen • Jan 12, 2018 10:05 am
Amazingness Rachel Bloom addresses the elephant I forgot TJ Miller used to host the Critics’ Choice Awards until Lainey reminded me. I asked her if the show was always so awkward right around the moment where Olivia Munn started rapping and I had to watch it recoiled on my couch, through my fingers attempting to block By Kathleen • Jan 12, 2018 09:26 am
Business of Hollywood Olivia Munn hosts the Critics’ Choice Awards No, the monologue rap wasn’t great. So I get it if, with a start like that, you weren’t all that into Olivia Munn last night hosting the Critics’ Choice Awards. But, apart from that rap, I actually quite enjoyed her. She was much stronger during the in-between awards By Lainey • Jan 12, 2018 09:03 am
Octavia Spencer Intro for January 12, 2018 Dear Gossips, The Critics’ Choice Awards happened last night in Hollywood and the all-black mandate was lifted and we’ll get to that on the main page and on the LifeStyle page today. Let’s start though with Octavia Spencer who was at the event with The Shape Of Water, By Lainey • Jan 12, 2018 08:22 am
What Else What Else? Reminder: the Critics’ Choice Awards are happening tonight. And James Franco has been nominated in the Best Actor category. Will James Franco show up? Or is he skipping the event? This is also the first event since the Michelle Williams/Mark Wahlberg pay revelation became public. If the point of By Lainey • Jan 11, 2018 04:51 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: We Got It – But What IS It? Hi Duana, I'm so excited to be writing to you! When I first stumbled across your column I was pretty stunned - I had no idea other "name nerds" existed. I still have a beaten-up bright pink baby name book (straight from the 80s) that has By Duana • Jan 11, 2018 04:13 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tony, Cap, Hulk, and …Ant? I’ve never seen Ant-Man, the Paul Rudd version (is there another movie version? I don’t actually want to know), and I barely paid attention to him in Captain America: Civil War so I have no idea what to call him, how to refer to him. Which is why By Lainey • Jan 11, 2018 03:51 pm
Celebrity Social Media Smutty Social Media, January 11, 2018 Since Justin Timberlake is encroaching on his Blue Steel Stetson Man vibe, John Mayer is upping his pioneer cred with a new project: he will be responding to correspondence, but only if it is typed on a typewriter. He calls it a “return to naturalism”. I’m not sure if By Maria • Jan 11, 2018 02:34 pm
