Ex Games JB can’t let go According to TMZ Selena Gomez and The Weeknd were supposed to go to the Grammys together and Abel had even asked that she be seated next to him. That didn’t happen, which I find interesting, because TMZ is not Radar Online or IN TOUCH Weekly. They’re usually pretty By Lainey • Feb 14, 2017 09:28 am
Grammy Awards 2017 Intro for February 14, 2017 Dear Gossips, Ratings for the Grammys this year improved over last year and the year before. Social media ratings, increasingly important to measure reach, also went up over last year and the year before. These were the Grammys where Beyoncé had the most nominations. Who, then, do you think generated By Lainey • Feb 14, 2017 09:00 am

Lifestyle Duana Names: Tradition or Trend? Obscurity or Anglicization? Hi Duana, I have a question about name spelling. I love the Irish name Sadhbh. But I wonder if the traditional spelling might be difficult for most people to understand. I was wondering if the anglicized versions are ok to use? I've seen it spelled Saeve and Sive.

Boy Sh-t Show Your Work: Big Little Reese, Rom-coms, and Rob Lowe Duana and I have been waiting almost a month to talk about Big Little Lies. The embargo was recently lifted. The show premieres on HBO and HBO Canada this coming Sunday. And we are OBSESSED. Normally, when it comes to television, it’s always Duana recommending and me ignoring.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Caitriona’s colours As was the case with Naomie Harris, I appreciate the idea here. To not wear what everyone else is wearing. And, actually, I quite like the shape of this dress. It’s not body-con. It’s high right up to the neck. It’s everything I like. Except…the colours By Lainey • Feb 13, 2017 04:06 pm
Style Emma’s best outfit of the season Emma Stone’s award season choices so far have been…kinda…same-same, right? Similar silhouettes, not that much edge? Duana always says I have an award season fashion theory. It’s a theory with two parts. First that they bank their best dresses for the biggest most high profile shows, By Lainey • Feb 13, 2017 03:51 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Heidi’s Grammy surprise What’s the surprise? The surprise is that she isn’t wearing something hideous. Because she almost always wears the most heinous sh-t at award shows. It’s hard to f-ck this one up though, even for Heidi Klum. This is basically a sequined t-shirt. It’s nothing special but By Lainey • Feb 13, 2017 03:24 pm
Grammy Awards 2017 Bruno’s Grammy consistency If there was an award for the Best Artist at Awards Shows, that honour would go to Bruno Mars. Beyoncé and Adele don’t qualify because they don’t grace us with their presence enough. Bruno is an award show staple and, consistently, he delivers. He slayed the American Music By Kathleen • Feb 13, 2017 03:11 pm
Style Rihanna’s flask Rihanna went 0 for 8 last night at the Grammys. 0 for 8 for Anti, the best, most critically acclaimed album of her career. Probably the biggest surprise is that 21 Pilots’s Stressed Out beat out Work. Because for those who argue that the Grammys are based on sales By Lainey • Feb 13, 2017 02:54 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Nicole is gorgeous at the BAFTAs She looks spectacular, right? This is probably my favourite dress that she’s worn this award season. And that’s an exquisite necklace too. But what makes this entire look is the hair and makeup. I love that she’s just left her hair loose and a little tousled. The By Lainey • Feb 13, 2017 01:35 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Naomie’s BAFTA ruffles and flowers I appreciate that Naomie Harris wasn’t going for a boring strapless column dress. That she’s willing to try something different, make a statement. Unfortunately I can’t get behind this outfit. It’s too much at the same time. The shoulder ruffles, the flower belt, it's By Lainey • Feb 13, 2017 01:13 pm
Tryhards Tom Post-Taffy Last week we all read Taffy Brodesser-Akner’s amazing profile of Tom Hiddleston. In it, T-Hidds is the most! Excited! Person! And he just! Can’t! Stop! Sharing!!!

Baby and Bump Obsession Blue Ivy saved the Grammys We weren’t going to give Blue her own post. Lainey and I discussed just mentioning Blue’s wonderfulness in a post about Beyoncé. That would not have been enough. Blue Ivy Carter showed up last in her finest form, ready to entertain the world and save a fake car By Kathleen • Feb 13, 2017 12:24 pm
Style The Grammys needed more Solange My second biggest disappointment of the night was how little we got to see of Miss Tina’s youngest daughter, Solange Knowles. Solange’s A Seat at the Table was one of my favourite albums of 2016. Solange had an incredible year. Last night, she won her first Grammy for By Kathleen • Feb 13, 2017 11:53 am
Coincidence or conspiracy Beyoncé knew She knew. Last week I wrote about how the Recording Academy had to discuss during a meeting whether or not Beyoncé was “gaming the system”. They claim it was a short conversation but the signs were there – they didn’t appreciate that Beyoncé delivered a complete album that crossed several By Lainey • Feb 13, 2017 11:25 am
