Music Intro for May 20, 2015 Dear Gossips, Have you watched the Feeling Myself video yet? I can’t stop watching Beyonce and Nicki Minaj dedicate an entire video to celebrating themselves. Please. Isn’t every video a self-celebration? If you’re going to do it – and they ALL do it – you might as well By Lainey • May 20, 2015 10:19 am
Style Charlize & Sean at the Life Ball Charlize Theron left Cannes to attend the Life Ball in Vienna on the weekend. I was surprised to see her there. Because, you know, the Life Ball, though important and for a good cause, doesn’t normally attract such A listers. It’s typically Hollywood Ebola Hilton. Or Kanye West’ By Lainey • May 19, 2015 04:39 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Natalie’s green Cannes plunge And once again I have small chest envy. Because this kind of a dress…it’s just so easy. It’s boring as f-ck, but for the colour, for Cannes. But you can imagine how it must feel, just hanging off of you like that, so comfortably, when you By Lainey • May 19, 2015 04:22 pm
Celebrity Social Media Smutty Social Media, Tuesday May 19, 2015 Taylor Swift’s brother, Austin, posted some photos from the BMA after party. That’s Taylor, Calvin Harris, party host Ed Sheeran and a few members of 1D. But certainly not the member of 1D. Harry Styles left town and skipped the after parties. And Taylor successfully friend collected his By Maria • May 19, 2015 04:08 pm
Hook Ups Pine & Bloom Not the name of a new hipster restaurant… Chris Pine was photographed having a kissy lunch in Hollywood the other day. Her name is Vail Bloom. Never heard of her in my life. But apparently she’s on a reality show called Vanderpump Rules. Never heard of it in my By Lainey • May 19, 2015 03:50 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Emily’s Cannes sparkles The photo call dress from earlier today was so promising – click here for a refresher. And she went with silvery beads for the Palais? But, but, but…. I feel like we’ve seen her like this before. So many times. I mean it’s fine. It’s better than fine. By Lainey • May 19, 2015 03:33 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Zoe & Yasiin Zoe Kravitz and Yasiin Bey, aka Mos Def, were photographed shopping together in Cannes the other day. Zoe’s at the festival for Mad Max. Yasiin was at the Amy premiere the other night. I wrote about the Amy Winehouse documentary the other day (click here for a refresher). The By Lainey • May 19, 2015 03:22 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate Blanchett’s black Cannes bow I feel like this might have been the dress she was supposed to wear to the Carol premiere…and then decided the amazing Giles one, Solange’s MET Gala sister dress, was better instead. Click here for a refresher from yesterday. Good decision. This black gown is something you wear By Lainey • May 19, 2015 02:55 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Gwyneth believes in “having sex” Gwyneth Paltrow’s “crazy fit” body covers the new issue of Women’s Health. I love those bikini bottoms on the cover. I don’t know how practical they are, but they’re cute. And styling them with a grey cropped tee works too. As for the excerpts that have By Lainey • May 19, 2015 01:30 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Jennifer Lawrence & Nicholas Hoult’s mutant summer Yesterday while procrastinating on deadline and messing around on the internet (OK fine, creeping Brandon Flowers), I somehow came across this page, about whether or not Jennifer Lawrence could be the new Thor. Please don’t ask me how I went from Brandon Flowers to Jennifer Lawrence as Thor because By Lainey • May 19, 2015 12:07 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Pratt’s GQ face Leading up to Jurassic World, Chris Pratt covers the June issue of GQ, and once again, they have made him look like Not Chris Pratt. This happened last year with GQ as well. It’s something about the hair, I think? The height on his hair makes his head look By Sarah • May 19, 2015 11:49 am
Music FKA twigs and the Pattison girlfriend treatment I’ve had several requests to cover the NYT profile on FKA twigs. You can read the piece here, published in advance of twigs’s Congregata performances in Brooklyn – 3 shows beginning Sunday, tonight’s the last one. The NYT review of Sunday’s performance is here. Sounds like it’ By Lainey • May 19, 2015 11:23 am
Girly Throw Downs The Good Wife Splicegate So The Good Wife, right? In case you didn’t know: the Alicia and Kalinda characters, played by Julianna Margulies and Archie Panjabi, used to be friends. Viewers loved the friendship, not least because it was nice to see women at work who were friends instead of rivals. Then the By Duana • May 19, 2015 10:34 am
Style Emily Blunt’s Cannes debut Emily Blunt has been to Cannes for a few parties here and there. But I don’t recall ever seeing her at the Palais, representing her own film. It’s well worth the wait though as she was joined by Benicio Del Toro and Josh Brolin today at the photo By Lainey • May 19, 2015 10:12 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Harley Quinn and The Joker in action I’ve been cautiously optimistic about Suicide Squad, mostly based on the direction of David Ayer and the presence of one of my favorite comic book characters, Harley Quinn. A couple weeks ago we got a look at the Squad, dubbed “Task Force X” for the movie, in their costumes, By Sarah • May 19, 2015 09:52 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Emma & Andrew’s parents Right after her Cannes debut, Emma Stone flew to London to join Bradley Cooper to promote Aloha. She returned to LA yesterday.
