Oscars 2018 Eiza Gonzalez’s first Oscar dress There were a number of people at the Oscars last night for the first time as presenters or nominees or both. What’s the strategy? Do you remember the first time Emma Stone was at the Oscars? She co-presented with Ben Stiller. She was one of the best presenters By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 12:36 pm
Oscars 2018 Kumail Nanjiani Won The Oscars He didn’t, of course. He and his wife Emily V. Gordon were nominated for their screenplay The Big Sick and didn’t win, though it picked up Best First Screenplay at the Independent Spirit Awards the night before. I was anxious about this – The Big Sick was a totally By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 12:01 pm
Girlcrushes Janelle Monae 2067 I’m convinced that Janelle Monae is a time-travelling superhuman from 2067. She is too damn cool for us mere mortals of 2018. She also loves telling futuristic fantasies and sci-fi fairy tales through her music, just like a future space traveler would. Look at this picture Janelle By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 11:28 am
Oscars 2018 Badass Emma Watson’s Bad Grammar Thank God for Vanity Fair and the other parties, which have changed from being exclusive events where nominees sometimes changed clothes and avoided the ‘novelty invite’ people, to still-exclusive events that, it is acknowledged, might be more fun than the main event and give stars a chance to shake By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 11:05 am
Oscars 2018 King Chadwick Chadwick. Holy sh-t. Boseman. I can’t get over Chadwick’s entire look. Every few minutes, I just say “Chadwick” out loud to no one in particular. Duana and Lainey have started to ignore me. HOLY SH-T, CHADWICK. We were waiting for Chadwick Boseman. Every time a limo By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 10:42 am
Oscars 2018 Miley & Liam six years later Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth made two Oscar stops last night – the Elton John annual Oscar party and the Vanity Fair party. Which they’ve not done since 2012. And this is what they looked like back then: It’s very similar, isn’t it? Here’s a comparison shot By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 10:31 am
Oscars 2018 When Frances McDormand Says Jump… Remember Frances McDormand being surprised at her win? Or if not surprised (because she’s won every award all season and actively asked people to stop voting for her), then kind of flustered? Did you wonder why? Apparently because if she had to go through the irritation of actually winning By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 10:05 am
Oscars 2018 Viola Davis wows in pink Have I mentioned that I worked the Oscars this year yet? I’m super chill about it so I don’t think I have. Well, I was there and in our production truck, when Viola Davis showed up, there were “wows” out loud from some of the men in the By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 09:15 am
Style Angela Bassett’s Oscar sequins What. The. F-CK, Angela Bassett. And please don’t misunderstand. I’m not dragging her. Not at all. Why would I dare? Who would dare? This is Angela Bassett. So the WTF is not about Angela Bassett in any way sucking. It is about how Angela Bassett does not By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 08:57 am
Oscars 2018 Margot Robbie Oscar disappointment I’m not talking about Margot Robbie losing the Oscar to Frances McDormand. We knew that was going to happen. I’m talking about her dress. This weekend, Lainey wrote that Margot’s bold look at the Spirit Awards must have meant that she was gearing up to “serve it By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 08:12 am
Oscars 2018 Sandra Bullock owns the Oscars Let’s get one thing out of the way – if you are part of a group of Practical Magic superfans who have been given a private gift of Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman in the same frame together, I’m very happy for you and I promise to watch the By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 08:03 am
Oscars 2018 Mary J. Blige: Oscars Best Performance I’m mad about Mudbound. I just decided how mad I’m going to be about Mudbound and that’s very. Very mad. There wasn’t much else to get fired up over this year so I’m going to pour all of my frustrations over missed nominations and people By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 07:47 am
Oscars 2018 Zendaya’s two Oscar dresses The more I look at it, the more I like Zendaya’s chocolate brown dress at the Oscars proper. Now that I’ve seen her Vanity Fair dress, I actually love it – the brown one, I mean. Here’s her Vanity Fair dress. I’m only giving you one shot By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 07:22 am
Oscars 2018 We Owe Greta Gerwig You might think we embellish the ‘fighting over who to write about on Oscar night’ bit but it really is a battle bordering on a brawl. We’re snide and opinionated and call ‘mine!’ like four year olds as soon as the name we want comes up. When we got By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 07:04 am
Oscars 2018 Armie Hammer: hot dogs and the flu Armie Hammer was supposed to be ready for the weekend. He and the Call Me By Your Name team were supposed to be at the Spirit Awards together, hit up a few pre-Oscar parties, and then show up to the Oscars proper as a posse. Armie had a whole By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 06:35 am
Parent Pimps Timothee Chalamet LIVING at the Oscars My favourite thing about Timothee Chalamet this awards season has been how much of a fanboy he is. I’ve written before about how much I love that he gets excited for his fave artists like the rest of us commoners would. He gushed about Frank Ocean to Frank Ocean By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 06:24 am
