Bad Style Oscars Most Creased: Helen Hunt Good for her about H&M because it’s an environmental initiative. Which…explains why her dress looked so cheap. Because it was. It’s basically what you wear to work. And you get out of the car and, oh sh-t, your blazer is already lined across the back. By Lainey • Feb 25, 2013 07:34 am
Dumbass Worst Oscar Mislabel: Octavia Spencer Octavia Spencer wore a gorgeous sort of pale ochre-y deep cream piece of fanciness which suited her really nicely with an off-centre neckline of which is surprising and unusual without being too try-hard-y. This is exactly the right note you want to strike for the year after you win an By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 07:00 am
Dumbass Oscar Whys: Munn, Stamos, Glanville I asked on Twitter why Olivia Munn was at the Oscars. Someone replied that she was in Magic Mike. Yeah so was Joe Manganiello. You think Joe Manganiello should be at the Oscars? Still, Olivia Munn had more reason, I guess if you stretch, than John Stamos. Was Uncle Jesse By Lainey • Feb 25, 2013 06:43 am
Oscars 2013 Best Oscar Repeat: Zoe Saldana The first thing I thought when I saw Zoe Saldana’s dress was that it was lilac – like the one she wore in 2010. I was ready to get all skeptical like “what was she thinking?”, but here’s the genius of it. It’s like the same dress – but By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 06:31 am
Oscars 2013 Best Oscar Spaz: Helena Bonham Carter The hair will always be crazy and in her face. And a nest in the back. And I’m not sure any stylist would admit to having created it. Can you imagine HBC having her hair done anyway? Or by anyone else? She did this in the hotel, right? Had By Lainey • Feb 25, 2013 06:17 am
Bad Style Worst Oscar Spaz: Renee Zellweger Renee Zellweger went back to her favourite, Carolina Herrera, to present at the Oscars. It was one of several “tank” style dresses with gold accents that we saw on the night -- including Catherine Zeta-Jones, with whom she presented. It didn’t work for Zeta and it doesn’t work By Lainey • Feb 25, 2013 06:03 am
Oscars 2013 Best FLOTUS for AMPAS I’ve always been entertained by the FLOTUS acronym, and I feel like it gets used in print and not enough out loud, not least because “First Lady” is an annoying title to have. So much more often, she’s just called Michelle Obama, which I think is her subtle By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 05:46 am
Oscars 2013 Oscar Lipsynch: Catherine Zeta-Jones I couldn’t come up with it in 140 words or less on Twitter in time but my point is -- did you have a reaction to the fact that Michael Douglas and Jane Fonda make more sense than Michael Douglas and Catherine-Zeta Jones…? Many of you thought it was By Lainey • Feb 25, 2013 05:34 am
Oscars 2013 Intro for February 25feb13 Dear Gossips, Who were the big winners at the Oscars? Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler beat the Oscars. They didn’t just beat Seth MacFarlane (although we’ll get to him later), they beat the Academy. Because that… that was a poorly produced show. Where By Lainey • Feb 25, 2013 04:42 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Spirits As IF Paula Patton, as IF. As IF she arrived last, after some major major stars, including Jennifer Lawrence. And preened at the photo wall forever. The dress looked good on her. But terrible colour. By Lainey • Feb 23, 2013 07:42 pm
Lifestyle Leslie & Sam: Spirits Best Couple Seeing them together made the gig. It made it worth it the 5 hr shoot. As you know, I'm obsessed with Leslie Bibb and Sam Rockwell. They held hands. There was a lot of inside joke laughing. She's a lot taller than him in heels. I By Lainey • Feb 23, 2013 07:34 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Salma in Spirit white Apparently she told people she wasn't feeling well. You couldn't tell looking at her. In person she was breathtaking. Maybe a little pale, but still crazy beautiful. This dress actually photographs more flattering than in person. Ps Salma and her husband always have their arms around By Lainey • Feb 23, 2013 07:20 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Amy Poehler's Spirit blue It's too bad these photos dull how bright and lovely this dress looked on her. Because it really was bright and lovely. So much so that I thought she was accented in gold and now I see no gold, which tells you how lit up she was. By Lainey • Feb 23, 2013 07:10 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kerry Washington's Spirit floral I admire the commitment to it, all over, top to bottom, including feet -- everywhere. And look at that clutch, the material totally clashes and it still works. By Lainey • Feb 23, 2013 06:31 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Matthew's Spirit thinness Can you see how gaunt he is in pictures? Is it coming through? I was 5 ft away from Matthew McConaughey and, while I know he's slowly putting the weight back on from that movie he did, I'm not sure the effects from all that are By Lainey • Feb 23, 2013 05:50 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Ellen's Spirit pyjamas And this is not meant as an insult. The Spirit Awards are literally on the beach. Totally appropriate wardrobe choice, and perfectly suited to her personality. The pants fit her really well -- I wish mine would hang so well. Also she looks great in wedges.
