Bad Style Jessica Chastain: Best - or Worst – SAG Near Miss? Man, these girls from The Help are on a SLOG. I was looking up something regarding The Help on the site last night, and I came across a poster in another language, and realized ‘oh yeah’, wide, WIDE release. Lots and lots of travel to promote the movie and many By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 11:24 am
Media Manipulation Suddenly not the favourite: George & Stacy at the SAG Awards As you know, as you’ve seen, George Clooney has been working it HARD the last 6 weeks or so for his Best Actor Oscar. Up to last night, he was winning everywhere. He won so much he’d accept his awards like monologues, prepared speeches about his parents toiling By Lainey • Jan 30, 2012 11:17 am
SAG Awards 2012 Viola Davis surges ahead She was the Best Actress at Critics’ Choice. And she won the SAG Award last night. Suddenly Viola Davis has edged ahead of both Meryl Streep and Michelle Williams for Oscar Best Actress making it tight race to the Kodak. Did you see the Streep’s face? She was delighted.

Style Best SAG Print: Shailene Woodley We will fight a lot today about what we liked, what we didn’t like, what we could not deal with. This will probably be one of them. Most of you, I’m sure, probably loathed the L’Wren Scott beaded gown worn by Shailene Woodley. Me I love it By Lainey • Jan 30, 2012 10:41 am
Bad Style There are barnacles on your SAG dress, Julianna Margulies Dresses that look like living things, organisms, freak me out. Last time it happened was when Heidi Klum wore lettuce at the Emmys. This, I realise, is not a universal phobia. But me, I don’t like imagining things growing on clothing. Heidi’s dress looked like it could breed. By Lainey • Jan 30, 2012 10:34 am
Dumbass Best SAG Snubbing: Kyra Sedgwick While in theory we’re restricting ourselves to what happens at the show, in reality certain truths are self-evident – in this case, that Giuliana (Lainey: Duana keeps calling her Giuliana DePandi which is maybe my favourite thing in life, ever) irritated a wide swath of people far more than usual By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 10:20 am
Bad Style Best SAG Hair for a Bad Dress: Diane Lane As Kelly Osbourne said last night, and repeated by Duana, pulling off a ponytail with a one shoulder is not an easy accomplishment. Diane Lane did it so beautifully. Always so beautiful. I just really... don’t care for this dress. It’s OK, I guess. And, well, not much By Lainey • Jan 30, 2012 10:04 am
SAG Awards 2012 Worst SAG Mistaken Identity: Grizz Chapman Ellie Kemper No, I’m not joking. Ellie Kemper was a double-nominee last night, as part of both the casts of The Office and Bridesmaids. And she was mistaken for someone else SEVERAL times. Once, on the carpet during a cutaway, after she’d already been interviewed by Ross (ugh…Ross), she By Duana • Jan 30, 2012 09:58 am
SAG Awards 2012 Best Beneficiary of Being in a George Clooney movie: Judy Greer at the SAG Awards You know Judy Greer. We all know Judy Greer. We’ve all seen a Judy Greer movie. I promise you, we’ve all probably seen at least two Judy Greer movies. Judy Greer is the only thing I liked about The Descendants, a film that continues to confuse me for By Lainey • Jan 30, 2012 09:43 am
Douchebags SAG Most Pouty: Michael Pitt How amazingly desperately pouty was Michael Pitt last night? I’d rather be strumming my guitar smoking cigarettes in a dive hole jazz bar, is this what you’re trying to tell me? Before or after you spend your money from modelling for Prada? Yes, Michael Pitt is the face By Lainey • Jan 30, 2012 09:33 am
SAG Awards 2012 The Screen Actors Guild Awards 2012 Best thing that happened at the SAGs? Angie and Tilda are BFF! More on that later. God I miss Joan Rivers on the red carpet. Joan Rivers wouldn’t ask Meryl Streep, “What kind of actress are you?” And if she did, she’d specify that in terms of nudity By Lainey • Jan 30, 2012 09:14 am
Intro for January 30, 2012 Dear Gossips, Spending over 3 hours watching an award show often feels excruciating. Spending 5 hours watching a tennis match, and a grand slam final no less... well... It’s exhilarating. How can the Oscars be more like Djokovic vs Nadal at the Australian Open and less like... the Oscars? By Lainey • Jan 30, 2012 09:01 am
Photo Assumption Marion & Joaquin A long time ago, when Joaquin Phoenix was #1 on my Five List, before he revealed himself to be a mega prick, and before Marion Cotillard and Guillaume Canet (happily) came together in real life, I would have reacted differently to these photos. Almost optimistically. In 2007, I would have By Lainey • Jan 27, 2012 04:17 pm
Bradley Cooper Zoe & Coop’s group photo Zoe Saldana and Bradley Cooper are at Sundance to promote The Words. There was a group media and photo session. They were careful not to be too obvious about the fact that they’re dating. Which makes it even more obvious that they’re dating. Like, practically living together as By Lainey • Jan 27, 2012 03:21 pm
Lifestyle SJP’s blue bag I love it. Instantly. I want it for Spring. Desperately. By Lainey • Jan 27, 2012 02:59 pm
Lifestyle Sasha’s INTO IT: the Nanette Sandal WHAT: NANETTE SANDAL WHERE: MICHAEL KORS STORES IN APRIL WHY: I saw these sandals at a fashion preview the other week and crushed on them big time. They are the perfect fun but practical heel for the season and I’m already getting panicky that they’re going to sell By Sasha • Jan 27, 2012 01:26 pm
