Oscars 2011 Oscar Best: Andrew Garfield My friend Lorella has a disparaging nickname for him re: his face. It’s something to do with an animal, and I can’t remember the animal right now because I’m too tired, but I don’t disagree with her description the way Andrew Garfield looks in photos because, By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 09:33 am
BFFs Oscar Conflict: Michelle Williams Written by Duana This woman gives me the conflict. She’s an actress so why can’t she pretend she likes people? If she wants real critical acclaim and the freedom to make even more, better movies, being a box-office draw is one of the clearest paths to getting that By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 09:10 am
Hook Ups Oscar You Knew He’d Be There: Taylor Swift Thursday night she hits a hockey game with that Chord kid from Glee. Pictures everywhere. Then she cycles the pre-Oscar party circuit with her bestie Emma Stone. Last night they wing manned for each other at Vanity Fair. It was one of Swifty’s strongest dress-up outings in a long By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 08:57 am
Style Worst Carpet-to-TV Translation: Amy Adams Written by Duana While I love Amy Adams, I will admit to being a pretty recent bandwagon jumper. I wasn’t so into it and she played such an unsympathetic character in Julie & Julia and there was the whole cutesy poo singing thing (I can hear all of you By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 08:44 am
Oscars 2011 Oscar Diction: Armie Hammer My colleague Ben Mulroney, the host of etalk, is pretty tall. Probably 6 ft 2. I can’t remember Ben ever interviewing someone and having to hold the mic UP to the subject. Until I watched it on the monitor during the live red carpet show yesterday as he spoke By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 08:34 am
Oscars 2011 Best Recovering Alcoholic: Russell Brand Written by Duana I know it sounds like a really strange thing to call someone, but after the weekend we’ve had, with the Charlie Sheens and the John Gallianos and all the rest of the poorly-behaved who feel entitled to spray their bullsh-t wherever they go, Russell Brand is By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 08:23 am
Quiveration Oscar Tense: Colin Firth He looked tight last night. The most tense I’ve ever seen him. Because he knew he was going to win. And I suppose it’s a lot worse knowing you’re SUPPOSED to win and anything else would be a huge upset and wondering about the possibility of the By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 08:14 am
Oscars 2011 Oscar non-Anne: Jesse Eisenberg Written by Duana Late last night, long after it was too late to do anything about it, (and really, what was I going to do? Call up Annie H on her cellphone, because of how tight we are? ) I realized there was an untapped connection at the Academy Awards last By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 08:00 am
Baby and Bump Obsession Best Undersize Dress: Penelope Cruz Written by Duana How damned hot is this woman? One month post birth. About 36 days. You know what the plan was for her? ‘Let me POUR MY ASS into this dress that I probably had from before I was pregnant. I know that I will look amazing, but that’ By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 07:45 am
Oscars 2011 Oscar Make-a-Couple: ScarJo & Jeremy Renner Many of you emailed me about this. Black Widow and Hawkeye posed together on the red carpet. And they could totally make sense, right? It’s a bit of a stretch though. Scarlett’s taste runs a lot prettier than Renner. I’m not saying he’s not a sexy By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 07:33 am
Style Annette Bening Written by Duana What do you suppose Annette Bening does on Oscar night? It must be a routine now, do you think? Does she have a private rant and a cry in the car and then get over herself? Does she not talk about losing the Oscar at all, and By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 07:19 am
Douchebags Oscar Pippy and his Ex Duana seemed to think Pipsqueak was on his “best behaviour” while presenting last night at the Oscars. Best Behaviour where Justin Timberlake is concerned, to me at least, would be to read the f-cking monitor and get the hell on with it. Could he resist? Could he resist the urge By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 06:53 am
Photo Assumption Oscar Photo Assumption: Justin vs Justin I just saw this photo and it made my life. Both Justin Timberlake and Justin Bieber were at the Vanity Fair party last night. So they met? Have they met before? I have no idea. And please don’t waste your time being know-it all-y about it either. The point By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 06:19 am
Gorgessity Oscar Windswept Couple:Jon Hamm&Jennifer Westfeldt Written by Duana I am about to ruin your day. Because your life is not as good as theirs. I don’t know if you got engaged this weekend, or the job of your dreams, or won the lottery. You’re not as happy as they are. Honestly, look at By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 06:00 am
Bad Style Oscar Baywatch: Jennifer Lawrence I’m not saying she didn’t look good. She looked great. Gorgeous. Hot. Super sexy. But you can’t deny that’s exacly the same shade of red. And it’s cut exactly like an elongated swimsuit. She could be running in slow motion down the beach…which…well… By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 05:42 am
Bad Style Sandra Bullock – Worst One Year Later Written by Duana Oh Sandra. Honey, what was going on tonight? Everyone knows tonight was a moment for you – that even though you were talking about what a great experience it is to win, that all you could think about was the beginning of the end that was last year.
