Movie Reviews and Previews Coach Taylor’s award season We miss him...but... I’m not sure if he really misses us. Because he’s busy. He’s working a lot. And he’s working very, very well. Here’s Kyle Chandler at the premiere of Zero Dark Thirty in New York last night with Kathryn Bigelow and Jessica By Lainey • Dec 05, 2012 10:58 am
Intro for December 5, 2012 Dear Gossips, Ethel has been shortlisted for Oscar Best Documentary and, supposedly, is considered one of the favourites. Have you seen it? If you, like me, have a Kennedy Family boner, this is required viewing. The archival footage is amazing. Over 60 years before YouTube, these people were visually documenting By Lainey • Dec 05, 2012 10:41 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Stacy’s beautiful black coat Is amazing, right? Look at the shoulder detail. It’s a good way to interpret the peplum thing, non? And the zig-zag is super cute too. Why can’t she apply the same style instincts when she gets dressed up? By Lainey • Dec 05, 2012 09:30 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: SJP’s great clash Love the length of this dress, especially the sleeves. And how she’s clashing it with her shoes. We should all have a long blue velvet blazer in our closets. By Lainey • Dec 05, 2012 09:22 am
Baby and Bump Obsession A smile is a good sign! Katy Cambridge is responding to treatment and improving! This in a statement confirmed by the Palace AND, well, on her husband’s face, seen here as he left the hospital today, visibly relieved, right? The Cambridges’ spokesperson released a statement to assure the public this afternoon: "The Duchess of By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 04:48 pm
Les Miserables Hugh Jackman as Jean Valjean As mentioned yesterday, I screened Les Miserables in New York on the weekend but reviews are embargoed until closer to the release date. We are allowed however to post reaction to the film. My reaction is that I ugly-cried HARD. And that I love Hugh Jackman. People keep talking about By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 04:14 pm
Kate Bosworth Kate Bosworth as Susie Diamond This is Kate Bosworth for Topshop, apparently recreating the iconic scene played by a vulnerable and sexy Michelle Pfeiffer in The Fabulous Baker Boys in an ad directed by, of course, her fiancé Michael Polish. What is our objective here? The clothes, right? We are supposed to want to buy By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 03:46 pm
Lifestyle Sasha Answers: Workplace Body Odour I work in a team of 6 at the moment. Recently a new colleague joined our team from another section of the organization. Problem is she's got a major BO problem. Without boring you with details, it's genuinely unbearable. She always has clean clothes and clean By Sasha • Dec 04, 2012 02:36 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Benedict Cumberbatch Treks into Darkness I cannot stop making fun of the Star Trek 2 title, Star Trek Into Darkness. It sounds like an Annie Lennox song. “When the world ends/And hope is lost/We will rise again/Star Trek Into Darkness/Yeah/Star Trek Into Darkness”. In my head, it’s set to By Sarah • Dec 04, 2012 02:24 pm
Hook Ups Taylor & Harry’s sleepover Yeah so she totally doesn’t want to be a Kennedy anymore. Last night, Taylor Swift was honoured by the Robert F Kennedy Centre. She wore a sparkly dress. She posed with a few members of the Kennedy family, but not Conor Kennedy’s father. Robert Kennedy Jr did did By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 01:36 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession On Katy Cambridge’s first trimester Keep sending your emails about how much detail you want/need. So far some of you are super superstitious, like me, and are urging caution in coverage. The other half of you are like - TELL ME EVERYTHING AND PUT A CAMERA UP IN THERE IF YOU CAN. The world By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 01:09 pm
Dumbass Mr Crawford is Mr Grey? Longtime reader Jonathan just sent me this really funny profile of Mr Chace Crawford at Mr Porter. It’s partly the way the article is written with so many... salutations. Obviously the publication’s preferred writing style, sure, but the effect is hilarious, especially when they all appear - the By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 11:41 am
Amazingness B’s tease HBO announced last week that Beyonce’s self-directed documentary will air on February 16, two weeks after her Super Bowl halftime performance. The film will include video footage from B’s personal collection and concert clips and photos -- so a movie version of her Tumblr, hopefully. Here is the By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 11:11 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Matthew McConaughey’s Oscar (Click here for Sarah’s Nostradamus on Matthew McConaughey. As I said then, she’s a big ball hitter.) Back in May in my Cannes preview, I noted that Matthew McConaughey was having a busy year, with five movies, including Cannes’ selections Mud and The Paperboy. It was for two By Sarah • Dec 04, 2012 11:00 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Rachel Weisz takes out Hushpuppy The New York Film Critics Circle dropped a big surprise on award season yesterday in naming Rachel Weisz Best Actress for her performance in The Deep Blue Sea. Very, very few of the “Oscarologists” had her on their lists for the five nominee spots with the exception of Michael Musto By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 10:47 am
Intro for December 4, 2012 Dear Gossips, No one expected the New York Film Critics Circle to vote for a musical. It’s just not their flavour. Their flavour though is Kathryn Bigelow over Ben Affleck. In past years, the NYFCC’s selection was considered a good prognosticator for Oscar but this award season is By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 10:18 am
