Bad Style Robin Wright: Emmys Worst Dressed (Lainey) It was shocking to me, seeing Robin Wright, whose style is normally so crisp and edgy, show up in a dress that looked so… cheap. This the first time I’ve used the word today. And I’ve saved it specifically for this dress. The tag might read thousands of By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 03:36 pm
Emmy Awards 2016 Aziz Ansari & Alan Yang: Emmy Win FTW Everything about this win made me so happy. The fact that they won at all, which we’ll come back to. The fact that when they gave their acceptance speeches, Ansari took second place, letting the much less famous, and much less likely to get a platform from day to By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 03:27 pm
Maple Leaf Tatiana Maslany: Best Emmy Longshot So? Now that the Best Actress in a Drama award has gone to Tatiana Maslany for playing ALL – or, okay, most – of the characters in Orphan Black, are you more inclined to try it? This is an award where previous winners include, you know, Viola Davis, Claire Danes, Julianna Margulies By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 03:12 pm
Emmy Awards 2016 Priyanka Chopra & Tom Hiddleston’s Emmy twirl If I asked you, before the Emmys, who’d be involved in an onstage “twirl” during the broadcast, who would you have a nominated. OF COURSE Tom Hiddleston. OF COURSE.

Emmy Awards 2016 Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell: Emmy Scandalous Snub You know, it’s not even about explaining how much of a loss it was that The Americans – who are, in name, Rhys and Russell – got so snubbed last night. Remember Coach and Mrs. Coach? Remember that marriage, and how hot-but-real it felt? Phillip and Elizabeth Jennings are much hotter, By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 02:11 pm
Emmy Awards 2016 Jill Soloway & Jeffrey Tambor: Emmy Mission Statement What did you think of Kimmel giving the statuette to Jeffrey Tambor right off the top? Was it funny, or did it rob the eventual win of its…you know, moment-ness? To me, it implied the win was a given, and I think that was more true inside the room By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 01:46 pm
Top Reads John Travolta & Kelly Preston: the Osmonds at the Emmys For real, I looked at these pictures of John Travolta and Kelly Preston at the Emmy last night and thought to myself, “Oh, what are Donny and Marie Osmond doing there?” Right? Once you know it, now that I’ve put it into your mind, you can’t un-know it. By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 01:15 pm
Emmy Awards 2016 Sterling K. Brown: Emmy Win Ascendancy If you watched American Crime Story: The People vs. OJ Simpson, you thought to yourself, of the actual Christopher Darden, “Man, I don’t remember a lot about that guy at all”, and then the real guy faded into the performer and it became “I really wish he would kiss By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 01:02 pm
Emmy Awards 2016 America Ferrera: Emmys best earrings Also a pale lip. See what I mean about all those pale lips? Didn’t bother me as much on America Ferrera as the others though with her beachy hair and that beachy glowing skin over a beachy-ish dress, and besides, I was distracted by those earrings. On the carpet, By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 12:40 pm
Emmy Awards 2016 Tracee Ellis Ross: Best Emmys Attendee If you took yearbook-style snapshots of the night last night, Tracee Ellis Ross would be in the middle of all of them having a blast, like the most popular girl at school. She’s having a great time at this thing, her Ralph Lauren dress looks great and – and this By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 12:33 pm
Style Yara’s Emmy repeats If I had my pick of any Emmy dress last night, for my own personal style, it would be Yara Shahidi’s dress. Worn with my silver stacked combat boots and a really tight topknot. The question is: would I wear it two nights in a row? On Saturday, Yara By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 12:14 pm
Emmy Awards 2016 Mandy Moore’s Emmy Comeback Of course it’s a comeback. Mandy Moore was not on anybody’s mind, even though she was working a lot. I clicked by John Krasinski on TV the other day, and it turned out to be some horrible horrible movie where he was trying to marry Mandy Moore, and By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 12:06 pm
Emmy Awards 2016 Claire Danes: Emmys golden fried It wasn’t just your TV. Duana and I were comparing TVs. I thought maybe Jacek had f-cked around with the colour on ours for his game console. But when Duana said that Claire Danes looked the same on hers, and all the TVs on Twitter were seeing the same By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 11:50 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Laverne Cox: Most Empathetic Emmys Presenter You know what a premium we put on awkward these days? Coltish, beautiful young people who have never looked or been awkward in their lives love to use the word as a catch-all that’s supposed to mean ‘I’m a little more interesting than the average person.’ But awkward By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 11:42 am
Photo Assumption Julia Louis-Dreyfus: Worst Emmys Video Assumption Photo and Video Assumption, the favourite game of gossips – drawing baseless conclusions from photos or video moments – but as unreliable as bump watch. And, sometimes, as was the case last night, it can make you feel like a f-cking asshole. This is what happened after Kate McKinnon won the Emmy By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 11:30 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Kate McKinnon: Best Emmy Win This woman really, really did not expect to win. Those are always the most fun to begin with (and it was really the night to be a long-shot to win wearing a red column, huh?), but when you add that the person who surprise-wins is incredibly talented, it makes things By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 11:20 am
