Faux Gossip Tom Cruise kisses Tom Cruise has been in Paris the last few weeks shooting Mission: Impossible 6. Here he is yesterday on set with Vanessa Kirby filming a kissing scene. You’ll recall, they tried to rumour a few weeks ago that Tom’s in love with her and that they’re totally By Lainey • May 03, 2017 10:37 am
TV Updates Welcome back to Twin Peaks Twin Peaks is returning to television—thanks to Showtime—with a two-part premiere on May 21. They released a new teaser this week just featuring David Lynch’s beautifully composed, nostalgic shots of locations like Laura Palmer’s house, the sheriff’s department, and the Double R Café.

MET Gala 2017 Intro for May 3, 2017 Dear Gossips, On Monday night, when Duana and I were trading texts about MET Gala assignments and early commentary on where we would land with our fashion rankings, I said to her that we were using more exclamation points for this event than we do any other. Exclamation points in By Lainey • May 03, 2017 09:31 am
Style Rihanna: the MET Gala MVP There is SJP. And there is Solange. And both have become critical to the MET Gala. I agree with Duana that Solange has made a monumental impact on this event. That she is leading us to new and memorable places with her style instincts. That it is breathtaking, the choices By Lainey • May 02, 2017 03:48 pm
Sit DOWN Gwyneth Paltrow: MET Worst Dressed 2017 (Lainey) We haven’t slept since Sunday. There are currently over 12,000 words posted on the site today. And there are two words that sum up what I feel about Gwyneth Paltrow’s look last night: f-ck off. Can we go now? Wait no. I have more. G was wearing By Lainey • May 02, 2017 03:24 pm
MET Gala 2017 Halle Berry: MET Worst Dressed 2017 (Duana) I had to think about this one. I knew Halle Berry was right at the bottom of the list, but it took me a minute to figure out why. You probably got there before me, right? This look is, on its own, not bad. It’s not avant-garde or on-theme, By Duana • May 02, 2017 01:53 pm
Style Solange: MET Best Dressed 2017 (Duana) Well. I mean, of course it’s not surprising that Solange is Best Dressed. In fact, she’s been using the MET Gala as her personal runway for years—a place where she is, in a different way than Rihanna, expected to reign. But man, I didn’t know it By Duana • May 02, 2017 01:17 pm
Style Ruth Negga: MET Best Dressed 2017 (Lainey) I promise that we try. After the Oscars and the Globes and the Emmys and especially the MET Gala, when we break down the list of coverage and consider the assignments, Duana and I try mix it up, we try not to keep going to the same names for best By Lainey • May 02, 2017 01:01 pm
MET Gala 2017 CELINE DION: Best MET Rookie Lainey and Lorella and I talk about Celine a fair bit. Mostly we talk about Celine and Rene. How bananas it all was. How much she loved him. She grieved more than anyone will ever grieve. She mourned! Wearing black lace! It’s like an opera taking place in real By Duana • May 02, 2017 12:44 pm
MET Gala 2017 JLO & ARod: the MET Gala premiere Like Selena Gomez and The Weeknd, the MET Gala was the first official red carpet for Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez. It wasn’t hard to predict. I called it yesterday but we were alllllll calling it yesterday. We’ve been calling it since the moment they started. Um, two By Lainey • May 02, 2017 12:18 pm
MET Gala 2017 Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds: MET Obligation You know I have opinions. And we’ll get to those in just a moment. But first I find myself having to say something… if not in Blake Lively’s defense, then on her behalf: We stay up all night to write, and it’s inevitable that sometimes I forget By Duana • May 02, 2017 12:00 pm
Bad Style Gisele & Tom: Lazy & Corny at the MET Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady did not attend the MET Gala last year. If she wore what she wore last night to the event last year, we might not have a problem. Gisele’s in Stella McCartney. And she told Andre Leon Talley that it’s “100 percent sustainable, baby” By Lainey • May 02, 2017 11:35 am
Style Janelle Monae & Chrissy Teigen: Best MET Feather Bombs Officially, my assignment sheet also includes John Legend, but can we acknowledge what we know? JL, you look great, it’s not about you, we gotta go. Okay. These dresses are kin to one another—not yin and yang, more like Big and Little Sis. But they’re both about By Duana • May 02, 2017 11:19 am
MET Gala 2017 Kerry Washington vs. Lily Collins: MET Dueling Bobs No, of course it doesn’t have to be a competition. But when two women both wear a distinctive hairstyle that’s nothing like their own (and is very obviously a tribute to Rei Kawakubo) you tend to wind up putting their attempts beside one another. One of the reasons By Duana • May 02, 2017 10:46 am
MET Gala 2017 Selena, Abel, and Bella: the MET Faceoff Sorry. SORRY. That word is lame as f-ck. “Faceoff.” But I couldn’t quite land on another one. Confrontation seems too serious. Triangle isn’t accurate. And of course it all sucks anyway because this is two girls petty-ing over a guy, a situation in which there can be no By Lainey • May 02, 2017 10:22 am
MET Gala 2017 Katy Perry: MET Costume You’re lucky, Katy Perry. You’re the co-chair of the event, which is also called the Costume Institute Gala, and that article about you in Vogue inspired a super-ranty episode of Show Your Work where we complimented you for being interested in learning more and being more. You’ve By Duana • May 02, 2017 09:49 am
