What Else What Else? I posted earlier about Angelina Jolie’s subdued look at the Torino Film Festival. And Sharon Stone showed up in the opposite style energy. This is about as wide awake as possible – and glorious. But as eye-catching as this red caped number is, I prefer her second look, which is By Lainey • Nov 25, 2024 04:03 pm
Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, November 25, 2024 Brie Larson debuted her pixie cut for Elektra; its West End run starts in January.

Amazingness The “Glen-terprise” As expected, since the Timothée Chamalet lookalike contest a few weeks ago, the copycats have been relentless. There are lookalike contests popping up all over the place and all of them have been …well… kinda sad and desperate because, of course, everyone in large part is doing it in the By Lainey • Nov 25, 2024 02:19 pm
Amazingness Hugh Grant’s glorious misery It was six years ago, during the Golden Globes, that LaineyGossip became a Hugh Grant fansite. Duana was the one who wrote the post back in 2018 during our Globes coverage – Hugh was there as a presenter, his job was to introduce Dunkirk, one of that year’s nominees, after By Lainey • Nov 25, 2024 12:57 pm

Style Angelina non-stop It’s been non-stop promotion for Angelina Jolie over the last three months as we’ve seen her promote Maria the way others might promote a Marvel/Disney tentpole – only with a muuuuuuch smaller budget.

What Else What Else? Jodie Turner-Smith is co-starring with Michael Fassbender in a series about spies, which I just learned about because Jodie turned up at the premiere in bright blue.

But after many false starts—Kraven was supposed to come out in January 2023, October 2023, and By Sarah • Nov 22, 2024 10:04 am
Business of Hollywood Intro for November 22, 2024 Dear Gossips, Back in 2021, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, host of the Golden Globes, was rocked by controversy, which very nearly was the end of the Globes.
