Lifestyle Two greens in a row Emma Stone went with a green Jason Wu last night at Critics’ Choice. There’s not a lot to complain about here, no. It’s just...

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Shailene Woodley keeps making good choices Whoever is styling Shailene Woodley this award season is doing a GREAT job.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Diane Kruger was kind of meh Am I crazy? I don’t love this Prada dress. In fact, I find it totally boring. Maybe it’s the combination of colours on a design that isn’t particularly fresh or inventive. And I’m not sure about the two yellow horns that pattern towards her groin.

Thanks! L It’s 2012 so I’m not going to waste any time - BOOM! Here is the exact one Charlize wears in By Sasha • Jan 12, 2012 02:52 pm
If I'm the Dean Backing Michelle? Both My Week With Marilyn and The Iron Lady are Weinstein pictures. Both Meryl Streep and Michelle Williams are considered locks for a Best Actress Oscar nomination. And so, corny corny, you could say that Harvey Weinstein has a Sophie’s Choice of his own. (Several months ago I overheard By Lainey • Jan 12, 2012 02:34 pm
Media Manipulation Shaving to rehab The TCA winter press tour was held at the Langham Pasadena. This is where I was staying last week and part of this week. They have great hotel pens.

Lifestyle Award Season Emma: So far so great Check out Emma Stone both at the NBR Awards on Tuesday night and the People’s Choice Awards last night.

Etalk has been with Nina from the beginning of her career. Now she’s the star of By Lainey • Jan 12, 2012 12:18 pm

Bad Style Robert Pattinson: Rich Hobo Last year Sasha coined a term in relation to Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart: “rich hippy”. My friend A, though, made a good point when she said that Pattinson and Stewart aren’t hippies so much as hobos. Fine, then. Rich hobos. Last night RPattz’s rich hobo-ness was By Sarah • Jan 12, 2012 11:01 am
Bad Style Sh-tty leather dresses I have finished the first season of Veronica Mars. SO good. Like, I know I’m criminally late on this but, um, what’s up with the low ratings? It’s like Friday Night Lights. People must be allergic to excellence. Anyway, happily, despite my newfound love for Veronica Mars, By Lainey • Jan 12, 2012 10:46 am
Intro for January 12, 2012 Dear Gossips, I don’t understand the BAFTA Rising Star short list. It’s ONLY men. Which... fine.
