Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Natalie’s sequins Not usually into an all-sequined dress. First of all, it’s uncomfortable.

Dumbass Please stop talking, Jeremy Renner I’ve always said Jeremy Renner is good for gossip, and he is certainly giving us something to talk about recently. The Avengers: Age of Ultron press tour was famously peppy, and during an interview Renner and Chris Evans stepped in a pile of internet dog sh*t when they By Sarah • May 06, 2015 09:58 am

Style Zendaya: Best MET Surprise Zendaya is my best MET surprise. I mean, finally. This is what we’re talking about when we talk about the MET Gala.
