Emmy Awards 2016 Regina King: Taffeta at the Emmys I will never not complain about taffeta at an award show. Unless it’s the People’s Choice Awards. And Kaley Cuoco is wearing it. Because that’s where taffeta belongs. But at the Emmys? On Regina King? Regina King, the winner for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited Series By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 07:52 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Anna Chlumsky: Emmys Most Fascinatingly Dressed I am not mad at it. (Lainey: me neither.) If you are, let’s take a second. What are you mad at, exactly? Here’s what I love about this amazingly ballsy dress: it’s not trying to be something else. It’s not like “Oh, but no, I am By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 07:35 am
Emmy Awards 2016 FNL Alumni at the Emmys… and Kirsten Dunst Duana and I laughed about this when we were deciding on how to group some of these posts. I mean, when Kyle Chandler, Connie Britton, Jesse Plemons, and Aimee Teegarden are all there, of course I’m putting them in one post and labelling it FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS…OBVIOUSLY.

Emmy Awards 2016 Emmy Highs and Lows with Minnie Driver Every so often I check to see if I still feel an unusual kinship with Minnie Driver, and the answer is yes. This is based on not much besides similar colouring, an outspoken-ness that sometimes doesn’t come out right, and secret ringlets that haven’t seen the light By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 06:15 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Constance Wu: Emmys midnight blue This dress on Constance Wu was even better on television. The way it moved, the way the shimmer in the material caught the light, the effect was gorgeous. I need someone to create a nail polish in exactly this print. It’s not just the material and the colours though. By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 05:54 am
Emmy Awards 2016 James Corden: Emmys ubiquitous We all know it’s coming. The wages for being universally popular all at once are that you will then get a wave of backlash and unpopularity all at once. This, of course, is directly proportionate to the number and breadth of high-profile people who say they love you. By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 05:33 am
Style Judith Light: Emmys best pale lip I was so frustrated with all the pale lips last night. No one really came out with a strong, bold lip colour. And several people could have used a strong bold lip colour. We will get to them soon. Judith Light did not go with a strong bold lip. But By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 05:09 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Key & Peele: Emmy’s most bittersweet win That’s the word The Atlantic used when Key & Peele ended last year: “bittersweet”. The show was just award an Emmy for Outstanding Variety Sketch Series for its fifth and final season and if you’re a fan, you almost wish it was still around now, especially now, with By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 04:46 am
TV Updates Rami Malek: Emmys Best Speech I still have to pinch myself that the name ‘Rami’ is now approaching household-name status. I shouldn’t be, it’s fun to say; it’s just that for so long, none of the names and phrases I grew up hearing from my Egyptian dad seemed real. I half By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 04:15 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Angela Bassett & Courtney B Vance: Emmy’s “hottest chick in the game” When Duana and I were splitting up this list of who would write which names, and Courtney B Vance came up, I told asked her, “You think it’s OK if my entire Courtney B Vance post is gonna be about Angela Bassett, because goddamn”. And she was like, “Isn’ By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 04:03 am
TV Updates Constance Zimmer: Best Emmy Sport People are widely divided on this look. I don’t hate it, but it’s definitely not Quinn, and I think that’s what people do hate about it. The bob keeps it on the right side of things for me but I think if she had romantic hair we’ By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 03:23 am
BFFs Amy Poehler & Tina Fey: Best Friend Emmy style If you’re the Schumer sisters, you go to the Emmys as twins. If you’re Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, and you’ve just won an Emmy together for co-hosting Saturday Night Live, and you’re presenting at the Emmys together, you choose outfits that are not the By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 03:01 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Amy Schumer at the Emmys: Something To Talk About So a lot of people are talking about Amy Schumer and her sister Kim looking like twins on the Emmy red carpet. The rolled-necks of their black dresses do look very similar, they’re both Vivienne Westwood, and even the hair looked the same. I saw the whisper that By Duana • Sep 19, 2016 02:48 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Beyoncé: Emmys absent guest Is it because they had her in the second row? I mean, who the f-ck puts Beyoncé in the second row?! They had Amy Schumer in the front row but Beyoncé in the second row?! In the end, it didn’t matter, because even though everyone was waiting for By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 02:19 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Matt Damon: Emmy’s surprise guest Sarah always talks about HBO’s Game Of Thrones dragon budget and how many times they can show the dragons based on how much money they have for CGI every time the dragons show up. And then a dragon showed up in the first 2 minutes of the Emmys. How By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 01:54 am
Emmy Awards 2016 Intro for September 19, 2016 Dear Gossips, “I just wanted to feel beautiful, y’all!” That was Leslie Jones, making the required “award show accountant moment” the most interesting it’s ever been. The Emmys did a lot of things right last night. And one of those things was to find a way to involve By Lainey • Sep 19, 2016 01:10 am
