Dumbass James Franco miscalculates? It’s not like Anne Hathaway hasn’t been criticised for what happened at the Oscars. She has. You have. Hathaway however will emerge from the sh-t kicking relatively unscathed. She tried, she wasn’t very good, but no one is holding it against her. You know why? Because she By Lainey • Mar 01, 2011 03:48 am
Clown Christina Aguilera arrested Christina and her KFed-style boyfriend were arrested a few hours ago in West Hollywood. Both were drunk, and he was trying to kill people while driving. Dumb. F-cking. Twat. She’s been booked on public intoxication and he’s looking at a DUI. According to TMZ, Christina’s been on By Lainey • Mar 01, 2011 03:18 am
BFFs Oscar Worsts: Gwyneth Paltrow & Nicole Kidman In this episode of Everyone Loves Gwyneth, here she is with Nicole Kidman on the carpet last night holding hands. Kidman almost always towers over any woman she stands beside. Gwyneth really is that tall. I was delighted they decided to be all friends and girly together, considering they both By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 10:45 am
Girlcrushes Oscar Best: Cate Blanchett I’m sure I’ll hear it from you on this one. But remember here that we’re talking about Cate Blanchett. Cate Blanchett doesn’t make style decisions with an eye to what someone like, say, Reese Witherspoon would wear on a carpet. In fact, she’d look at By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 10:19 am
Baby and Bump Obsession Natalie Portman – Worst Everything Ever Written by Duana “Um, well, first of all, I don’t know the sex of my child”. Ugh. And then again, ugh. I’m going to try to rein in my rage and let it slowly build rather than unleash it all at you, unsuspecting, in one go. But I By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 10:12 am
B-tchFace Best Oscar BitchFace: Marky Mark’s Wife Has there ever been a BitchFace ascent as accomplished and as meteoric as Mark Wahlberg’s wife’s, also known as Rhea Durham? We first saw it when she punked off Jessi Cruickshank at a Golden Globes after party. Last night….all night… every time they cut to her, there By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 10:01 am
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
