Media Manipulation Back to her old tricks? Surely The Italian Queen has some experience with girl on girl action for pay, right? What? Oh ok, you’re right. She’s all class and innocence. Elisabetta Canalis is currently promoting a movie called A Natale Mi Sposo. She wore leather pants to the photocall in Rome yesterday with By Lainey • Nov 25, 2010 08:16 am
TV Live Blog - Thursday, November 25, 2010 It’s Snow Day in Vancouver! This has no relevance to the liveblog. I just love the first real Snow Day of the year. Duana’s here for tv talk, and probably some tit talk. And a tip about that vintage shoppe in NYC. And more. I expect you all By Lainey • Nov 25, 2010 06:55 am
Jessica Simpson Porny Float She performed during the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York today. Something from her new Christmas album. When I say “performed” I mean she tried really hard to mouth the words. And not forget them. This is not singing. But it is pretty funny. Especially when she scrunches By Lainey • Nov 25, 2010 05:46 am
Quiveration No, seriously, he’s perfect Really. He is. I received an email yesterday from Isabel who told me about Colin Firth’s article in Vogue which reminded me I hadn’t even opened my December issue yet. Of course I immediately went to check. And there he is. On page 292, maybe the best photo By Lainey • Nov 25, 2010 04:01 am
Lipgloss and holiday style-offs Written by Sasha Hi Sasha - I'm a chapstick-kind-of-girl. But lipstick looks gorgeous on women and I always think I want to upgrade. However, when I buy lipstick, I put it on, it dries up and comes off w/in 2 hours, and I never use it again. By Lainey • Nov 25, 2010 03:40 am
Maple Leaf Goon >Love Guru Then again, it’s not hard to be better than The Love Guru. Woah wait. Wasn’t Jessica Alba in The Love Guru. Was she forced at gunpoint? Because, you know, she’s all discerning and sh-t right? Anyway, there’s another Canadian who is making a movie about hockey. By Lainey • Nov 25, 2010 03:15 am
Chris Martin Coldplay Christmas Lights I wrote about Christmas Lights twice yesterday. It’s because I’ve been thinking about them a lot. About that time of year I keep going on about when being optimistic seems...easier. I guess it really started when I was in London a couple of weeks ago. I’d By Lainey • Nov 25, 2010 02:42 am
Movie Reviews and Previews On Love & Other Drugs As noted in my Colin Firth article earlier about The King’s Speech, I don’t know what it is about this time of year that makes me (we?) so much more receptive to the heart-swellers. It’s American Thanksgiving. And while I am not American and already celebrated Canadian By Lainey • Nov 24, 2010 10:29 am
Harry Potter Harry Potter money buys toilet seats Favourite photos of the day. Rupert Grint was photographed at Heathrow today carting along a Japanese Toilet Seat. No, for real. According to the photo agency, this Japanese Toilet “offers features such as slow closing, electronic bidet, and warm heated seat”. OMG. Is this what I need for my poo By Lainey • Nov 24, 2010 08:57 am
Amazingness Play the chords lower Did you download Kanye West’s new album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy? I did. And I’m really into it. Haven’t been able to go through it over and over again yet, but on first play it’s good. Some would even say it’s great. Even the By Lainey • Nov 24, 2010 08:37 am
Royals Not a cash bar wedding I’ve bitched about it before: cash bar weddings. Relax. I’m not saying everyone has to pay for a splashy wedding. I’m not saying that if you marry in the church hall where your parents used to play and it’s a lovely, intimate affair that this applies By Lainey • Nov 24, 2010 07:44 am
Girly Throw Downs Leighton getting paid As you know, Blake Lively is considered the real superstar among the Gossip Girl actors, even though Leighton Meester’s Blair Waldorf is the heart and soul of the show. Since Leighton’s cut of fame is inexplicably – tits aside – so much smaller than Blake’s, it always makes me By Lainey • Nov 24, 2010 07:12 am
Harry Potter Harry Potter & the Reusable Grocery Bag My trunk is filled with reusable grocery bags. Maybe too many. I worry that that defeats the purpose. But there’s a smugness to be derived from pulling up at the cash register and declining a plastic option, non? I mean, I can see my own smugness when it happens. By Lainey • Nov 24, 2010 05:00 am
Glee Sesame Street for Tweens Written by Duana I’ve been in the US for five days, feels like longer. When you’re on vacation you notice the differences more. I love Target and I wish there were more independent restaurants and I forgot about the level of familiarity that people have with their morning By Lainey • Nov 24, 2010 04:00 am
Gorgessity He’s not a second guest He really isn’t. But the way the timing worked out yesterday at Letterman, Colin Firth had to be. Any show producer would have made the same call. After all, Jerry Seinfeld was there. And he delivered a short stand-up routine. And he spent time on the chair with Dave, By Lainey • Nov 24, 2010 03:00 am
Baby and Bump Obsession Porny’s not pregnant At least that’s what she told Access Hollywood. The other day the bump-obsessed among you swore up and down that she looked rough at the airport in New York because she’s in her first trimester. Could be. But she says no. “There are no babies yet. But I By Lainey • Nov 24, 2010 02:19 am
