Style Met Boring: Zoe Saldana It’s bright yellow and I’m calling it boring. Because it is. It’s strapless. It’s that trademark Calvin Klein seemingly super-industrial wrinkle resistant material. There’s a belt at the waist. With some flaps at that back. And... that’s it. But... This is Zoe Saldana. I By Lainey • May 03, 2011 02:48 am
Style Best Swift Styling: Taylor Swift This may be my favourite Taylor Swift of all time. The way she’s been styled, this might her best ever. And it goes back to what I said about Beyonce – taking her own steeze and twisting it out for the Met Gala on a night for McQueen. That would By Lainey • May 03, 2011 02:38 am
Baby and Bump Obsession Similar Met Bumps: Kate Hudson & Jessica Alba I read somewhere, I can’t remember where, that Alba’s ensemble last night was one of the best. What? This is Jessica Alba, who is pregnant, in a no-colour Ralph Lauren, and I don’t see how this can be characterised as anything other than a mess. Look at By Lainey • May 03, 2011 02:23 am
Bad Style Met Prom: Ashley Greene & Jennifer Hudson The Met Gala is not the prom. But you know, without fail, some people come to this thing thinking it’s like their own wedding. This explains why Jennifer Hudson chose Vera Wang. That’s a wedding dress, it’s a prom dress, it’s certainly not a high fashion By Lainey • May 03, 2011 02:05 am
Style Met Fishtails: Beyonce & Christina Ricci Have a feeling we’ll be fighting about this one. Christina Ricci is in Zac Posen. It’s exquisite. I mean, from a design perspective, it’s all you want at the Met Gala. Drama, imagination, quality, craftsmanship... But I feel like it might be the right dress on the By Lainey • May 03, 2011 01:45 am
Bad Style 17-off at the Met: Dakota & Saoirse I suppose, if there’s anyone who could get away with the Valentino flower tulle explosion worn by Dakota Fanning at the Met Gala it was probably Dakota Fanning. She’s 17. Prom is still within the parametres of her actual experience. But f-ck is this thing ever ugly. And By Lainey • May 03, 2011 01:31 am
Style Best Met Photobomb: Gisele & Ginnifer Check out Gisele Bundchen’s face behind Ginnifer Goodwin last night. Amazing, right? Shall we Photo Assumption? Errrrm... who invited all these Bs? Is that the girl from Twilight with the really bad pixie wig? To be fair, Ginnifer Goodwin is a few steps ahead of Ashley Greene. And her By Lainey • May 03, 2011 01:09 am
Style The Costume Institute Gala 2011 Before we begin blogging the Met Gala and the photos... It’s the Met Gala. So... there’s some license here on the edge if you want it. Drama is good. Weird could be good too. Remember it’s not the Oscars and Los Angeles. It’s New York. And By Lainey • May 03, 2011 01:00 am
Style Met Gala Preview: the Royal McQueen As noted in the open, the Costume Institute Gala goes down tonight and it’s a tribute to the late Lee McQueen and his label Alexander McQueen. Great timing. On Friday, Kate Middleton arrived at Westminster Abbey in a gown designed by Sarah Burton, the Creative Director of the House By Lainey • May 02, 2011 10:08 am
Movie Reviews and Previews This trailer is (half) sh-t Last summer I read a book called One Day. And I wrote about it incessantly afterwards. I was even optimistic when I found out they were making the movie, because David Nicholls is a screenwriter too, and One Day was easily adaptable. When they cast Anne Hathaway as Emma and By Lainey • May 02, 2011 09:13 am

Maple Leaf Stefan = Talk, Damon = Action Written by Duana We now return to the continuing story of Elijah + Elena = ?? Previously, Elena/Katherine were doppelgangers, the curse was actually on Klaus because he’s a werewolf/doppelganger hybrid, Jenna found out everything, Klaus came back to life, Elijah can save Elena from dying, Damon’s unimpressed.

Douchebags Douches on a carpet Tiger Jam happened in Vegas this weekend. How do you look less douchey? Stand next to someone super-douchey. Like, I don’t mind Keith Urban’s hair so much when Tiger Woods’s shirt and John Mayer’s hat get in the way. Right? I don’t give a sh-t By Lainey • May 02, 2011 06:14 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Spider-Man in New York Am very attracted to Andrew Garfield in these shots of him in New York shooting Spider-Man this weekend. I like the way he looks in those glasses. I like the way he’s wearing his pants. I like the way he’s working that skateboard. I like his hair, I By Lainey • May 02, 2011 05:08 am
