Movie Reviews and Previews In Defense of A Wrinkle in Time It has been just over two weeks since I saw A Wrinkle in Time. It was a press screening, which usually means I’m sitting alone being extra all by myself. But this time, my best friend Liz –who works with Lainey at etalk – was sitting beside me. We laughed.

Royals Dearly Beloved Harry Here’s a cute, quick little royal story. The Queen, no doubt, like all grandmothers, adores all her grandchildren. And it would be unfair to say that she has favourites, just because we have our favourites. She is, for example, quite close to Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie even though that By Lainey • Mar 15, 2018 11:12 am
Baby and Bump Obsession Angelina’s one month countdown Alicia Vikander’s Tomb Raider opens tomorrow – Sarah just reviewed the movie in the previous post– and it occurs to me now that it’s been 15 years since we last saw Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft. Which means that there’s an entire generation that doesn’t know her By Lainey • Mar 15, 2018 10:26 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Tomb Raider doesn’t suck Tomb Raider wants to be Indiana Jones but ends up more The Mummy (the good Rachel Weisz one, not the dumb Tom Cruise one). That’s not an insult—The Mummy is a good f*cking adventure movie. But The Mummy also doesn’t take itself seriously, and you can By Sarah • Mar 15, 2018 09:46 am
Music Intro for March 15, 2018 Dear Gossips, When I woke up this morning at 5am ET, Drake was trending worldwide on Twitter. I thought, initially, that he’d dropped a new single overnight. But that would be an old reason to go viral. And Drake, as we’ve seen, is the artist most suited to By Lainey • Mar 15, 2018 09:10 am
What Else What Else? A lot of you had some sh-t to say about how the stitching on the back of Meghan Markle’s coat wasn’t properly cut off last week. We get into this on this week’s Sasha Answers podcast. We also talk about what “coffee” means in modern dating. Not By Lainey • Mar 14, 2018 04:15 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Very Little Johnny Depp The first trailer for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald has been released and it, unlike JK Rowling, would like to pretend like Johnny Depp is not in the movie. (I am not inclined to cut anyone associated with this movie slack because A. they could have recast him between By Sarah • Mar 14, 2018 03:57 pm
TV Updates John Legend’s Jesus. As for the Superstar… Last week, thinking about Emma Stone at the Oscars, I wrote about how many things would have to go wrong to constitute a bad day. Today I’m contemplating the opposite – you know when things are shaping up to give you a really good day? So far today, the weather By Duana • Mar 14, 2018 03:17 pm
Celebrity Social Media Smutty Social Media, March 14, 2018 I know this mugshot isn’t new (TMZ posted it in 2012) but it is a good #TBT (as I’ve said, Armie is better on Instagram than he is on Twitter). He was arrested for pot brownies – a whopping .02 ounces of weed. Did they make him change into By Maria • Mar 14, 2018 02:24 pm
Taylor Swift Taylor Swift can’t dance We know this. That’s supposed to be the point, I guess. Lainey theorized after the Delicate music video dropped that Taylor’s horrific, oh-god-why-am-I-watching-this dancing is deliberate. She doesn’t care that she’s the 2018 Napoleon Dynamite. She’s dancing like no one is watching – except that we’ By Kathleen • Mar 14, 2018 12:57 pm

Aging Gorgessity This Hot Bitch in a rom-com This Hot Bitch is what I’ve been calling Sharon Stone, for years now. And now she’s 60 years old, just turned on March 10th. Sharon has a new movie coming out – it’s called All I Wish. It’s a rom-com. She does NOT play the mother of By Lainey • Mar 14, 2018 11:51 am
Break Ups Zayn and Gigi break up Usually when breakup announcements are sent out in my office, there’s a collective, audible gasp. When my co-worker sent out the e-mail that Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik broke up yesterday, there was no gasp. My friend Brian, who sits behind me, was the only one who reacted with By Kathleen • Mar 14, 2018 10:45 am
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
