Style She can’t smell but you can And she wants you to smell her Vintage Muse. That’s the name of her fragrance. She promoted it today in London. At Boots. Boots! Maybe it’s different in England but in North America, drug store perfumes are kinda budget. I will buy $3 shampoo. And conditioner. All the By Lainey • Nov 26, 2010 04:20 am
Girly Throw Downs Rapper Girl Sh-t OMG. So good. SO GOOD! As mentioned earlier, my friend M alerted me to the latest this morning. But here’s the background. For over a year now everyone has been talking about Nicki Minaj. Minaj’s new album dropped this week. And deservingly so. Minaj’s new album just By Lainey • Nov 26, 2010 03:37 am
Maple Leaf Cory’s Snow Day I was supposed to go in studio yesterday to shoot etalk. But it was Snow Day. I wrote to them in Toronto at 5am begging off because, frankly, I’m afraid to drive in the snow. We have snow tires but... it’s really not a good idea. Jacek agrees. By Lainey • Nov 26, 2010 03:14 am
BFFs Jen’s new BFF Never mind that as soon as she got tight with Jennifer Aniston, the quality of the guests on her show started improving. In their industry, you’re always trading up. In Chelsea’s case, trading up means softening out. So she didn’t ask Taylor Swift straight up if she By Lainey • Nov 26, 2010 02:58 am
Intro for Nov 26, 2010 Dear Gossips, I love waking up to Girl Sh-t, unless it’s my own. This is not my own. So of course it’s awesome. My friend M emailed this morning about it and I read the message right after my blackberry alarms went off. It put me in such By Lainey • Nov 26, 2010 02:21 am
Royals Piano Riddler at the Royal Wedding? This is Elton John today in London leaving BBC Studios looking like Jim Carrey’s Riddler. He was asked on the radio today whether or not he’ll be performing at Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding. Elton’s response: "I probably am." Then, perhaps realising that By Lainey • Nov 25, 2010 09:15 am
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.

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
