Parent Pimps You can do anything! It was my favourite sketch on Saturday Night Live this past weekend, hosted by Daniel Radcliffe. If you’ve been reading my column for a while, this is probably no surprise. One of the running themes is the abuse of Special . You are seeing the consequences of that all over By Lainey • Jan 17, 2012 11:33 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Penelope’s pink, green, and jeans If you had all these things in your closet, would you have put them together like this today? I wouldn’t have. Not saying it looks sh-tty, because it doesn’t, but it’s not all that remarkable either. Not remarkable enough to say, oh let me put on my By Lainey • Jan 17, 2012 11:05 am
Intro for January 17, 2012 Dear Gossips, BAFTA nominations were announced this morning in London. The Artist led the way, followed by Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. No huge surprises, but there are certain differences between the British list and its American counterpart(s). BAFTA went with Michael Fassbender over Leonardo DiCaprio - I agree. And By Lainey • Jan 17, 2012 10:36 am
Quiveration This might take a few weeks On Friday, Claire Danes and Leonardo DiCaprio both attended the AFI gala. I found a photo of them together. And, obviously, my immediate association was Romeo & Juliet. Only one of my all time favourite movies. Click here if you missed that post. Anyway, fuelled by nostalgia, I went looking By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 05:33 pm
Bad Style GG Worst Dressed: Natalie Portman No imagination. No creativity. I don’t care that it was Lanvin. Go to a mid-range department store right now, head for the evening wear section and you’ll find this dress in various shades of peach and mahogany, definitely black, and most certainly red. Maybe not such an full By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 05:23 pm
Quiveration GG Best Man: Idris Elba I’ve already mentioned that Luther is my jam. You need to get on that if you haven’t already. There are a few shows that I can’t talk about too much because...corny as it is to say... my feelings for them are so intense, I still want By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 05:18 pm
Style GG Duana’s Best Dressed: Laura Dern This green dress really moved me onscreen, but in the still pictures, it’s less dynamic. Maybe that’s the point of sequins, that they have to be seen in motion to really kick you in the eyeballs. It’s an interesting dress – both super-sexy and a little bit austere. By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 04:37 pm
Style Lainey’s GG Best Dressed: Nicole Kidman Put Nicole in a room with Madonna (and Jessica Lange) every time and her face actually starts to move. Even Third Lip wasn’t so third lippy last night. But that Versace was her best in a long, long time. You know why? It gave her an hourglass. Nicole is By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 04:31 pm
Fontrum GG Fontrum: Madonna I grew up in the 80s. Madonna was my guardian angel, my camp counsellor, my ways and my means. What I’m trying to say is that I will always want to side with Madonna. She’s connected to my youth. And those inclinations, formed in adolescence, attached to teen By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 04:20 pm
Bad Style GG Third Saggy Breast: Jessica Biel Shelfy did not wear her engagement ring at any of the Globe events this weekend. Instead, she decided on a prairie wedding gown with a third saggy tit, right above the waist, I dunno, just to make sure you know JT wants to marry her. In this? She’s not By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 04:04 pm
Gorgessity GG Best Hair: Angelina Jolie An easy knot like this is so underrated. And it doesn’t need to look like this. Angelina’s isn’t perfect, and this is a good thing. It could have very well been swept off off her face and neck, looped around an elastic a few times, and done. By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 03:16 pm
Bad Style GG Worst Hair & Forever $400: Stacy Keibler Nothing says small town to me more than poor hairstyling, where the “rules” of fashion and appearance have never been updated, one of which dictates that fancy parties require curls or updos. Making it exciting is taking it only half way up. This is what Stacy Keibler gave us last By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 02:51 pm
Golden Globes 2012 GG Worst Happy Face: Claire Danes Behold, a thesis in two parts: Point the first – the physical. Danes and I are of a similar age. But…flatter myself, sure...I think she looks SO much older than me. Part of that can be attributed to the razor-thin demands that we know in Hollywood – the body-or-face choice By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 02:39 pm
Style Golden Globe Almost: Michelle Williams She was just about to be my Best of the night. Just about. Even with the headband that Duana and Sarah considered twee. But I thought it was beautifully accented with that dress. God, that amazing dress. And then... She opened with the kid. Right off the top of the By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 01:29 pm
Bad Style GG Worst Bow At The Hip: Charlize Theron Jessica Biel did it in Prada at the Oscars in 2009. Like a handkerchief at the chest. Click here for refresher. This is, of course, Charlize Theron. Who always favours a bow. And hers is at the hip. So, obviously, it’s not quite as dumbass as Biel’s attempt By Lainey • Jan 16, 2012 01:09 pm
Bad Style GG Best Improv/Worst Cowgirl: Meryl Streep Lainey called me out last night, and she was right, for pussy footing around the fact that The Iron Lady suuuuucked. I mean, not just a little bit. That movie was really, really bad …but you got so distracted by Meryl. There was a moment in the movie where she By Duana • Jan 16, 2012 12:59 pm
