Rachel Weisz The Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue 2016 I wrote last week in anticipation of the annual Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue. They revealed the cover yesterday – no Michael B Jordan but that’s because it’s all women.

Chinese Squawking Chicken Intro for February 2, 2016 Dear Gossips, I had two inches taken off my hair this morning. That’s probably not a big deal for you. But for me, haircuts induce paralysis.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Julianne’s SAG green It’s puke green. Which is not necessarily a problem if it’s done well but it becomes even more glaringly puke green when…well… This was probably the worst dress of the night for me.
