Mad Men Mad Men: Political Parties Written by Duana This episode, like all of the politics in it, made me feel slightly icky, slightly unsettled, and utterly unsatisfied at the end. I’m sure there’s a joke about Don Draper’s current level of sexual prowess in there somewhere but, to really kill the metaphor, By Lainey • Sep 14, 2010 03:19 am
Hook Ups Rachel & Michael? Rachel McAdams showed up at the Beautiful Boy (starring Michael Sheen and Maria Bello) screening on Sunday night and at the film’s afterparty at Cheval. SO pretty. Loose blonde hair in waves around her face, great tight black dress with an exposed zipper running all the way down the By Lainey • Sep 14, 2010 03:02 am
B-tch please And now Birkin will break up with you As you know, as you’ve seen, she has one in every colour. And as you’ve probably heard, they’re not easy to get. It’s Hermes and their elaborate secret-handshake-special-customer-stock-in-the-back-but-only-if-you’ve-earned-it reputation. Victoria Beckham appeared to have earned it. But now she’s telling people she can make By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 11:44 am
Bad Style TIFF Style Best & Worst … so far Written by Sasha The fashion extravaganza has begun and it’s time for my weekend fashion round up! Diving straight into it, my vote for most fashionable couple! There were a lot of Hollywood duos out this weekend—Ben and Jen, Jon Hamm and long time lady Jennifer, and Marion By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 11:39 am
TIFF 2010 Coverage Saturday Night Soho House/Grey Goose It’s where everyone ended up on Saturday night. Especially the Brits. Oh and Zach Galifianakis. And that new Spiderman kid Andrew Garfield. He’s wonderful in Never Let Me Go but Laura, in real life, who is partial to Brits, wasn’t feeling his hair. His hair isn’t By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 10:41 am
Final note on MTV VMA 2010 Written by Duana I have gone on elsewhere about the nonsense that was the Kanye-Taylor sing-battle, ie. the best pop-culture grudge since Justin and Britney had a dance off, but that doesn't mean there weren't other glorious moments So Nicki Minaj sang "Your Love" By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 10:01 am
Girlcrushes Emma Stone: Official Girlcrush It’s been building for a while, and this weekend cemented Emma Stone’s place on my girlcrush list. It was something of an odyssey weekend for Emma, hitting three events in three days in two different countries. First she hit up Leno in LA on Friday night, in an By Sarah • Sep 13, 2010 09:27 am
Girlcrushes Meeting Marion Poor Jacek. I had 24 hours of her from Saturday through Sunday and he got nothing. Saturday morning it was a screening for Little White Lies (Les Petits Mouchoirs) directed by Guillaume Canet. It’s not a bad movie, and she’s lovely in it, but goddamn, the film started By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 06:41 am
Quiveration Bill Murray memories & please don’t be mad at me I don’t hate on Megan Fox as hard as other people. She says dumb sh-t. She has a weird pretend face. She’s crazy and temperamental. But I have more time for Megan than, say, Shelfy. Which doesn’t mean I love her, of course not. Just that, well, By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 05:37 am
Lindsay Lohan Chelsea Handler’s VMAs… Written by Sarah Were boring. And old. And that wasn’t really Handler’s fault. She was a surprisingly on-point host, mixing her trademark raunch (“If you think Justin Bieber’s music is good now, just imagine how good it will be when he sees a vagina”) with the kind By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 05:21 am
Quiveration Passing out over Franco There’s a scene in 127 Hours that is so harrowing, someone actually bailed last night at the TIFF gala nd the paramedics were called. If you know the story of the dude who was trapped and had to extricate himself in extreme fashion, you probably have an idea of By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 04:05 am
Amazingness Part 2: Kanye Written by Duana The ominous and much hyped reappearance of Kanye....after mixing meticulously on his sample board that looks like he whitewashed a Fisher-Price something, he goes into it. Toast for the douche bags, toast for the assholes, goats for the scumbags, toast for the jerkoffs - none of By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 03:18 am
Girly Throw Downs The Swifty Little Thing Written by Duana Girl portions of the evening are, who are we kidding, the best part of the night. So Gaga wins for "Bad Romance". Gaga's coterie of assistants getting her up to the stage looked like an ordeal. Not a fun time. But it was By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 03:02 am
Maple Leaf Happy Airport Reunion Starting off the day with a nod to Vancouver because I miss home. Jacek left for home yesterday to see Marcus and even though I barely saw him this week while we were in Toronto because my ass was parked at Soho House at the end of every night until By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 02:33 am
Intro for Sep 13, 2010 Dear Gossips, It was all TIFF all weekend for me and several parties every night and stories featuring Bill Murray, James McAvoy, Marion Cotillard, James Franco, Rachel McAdams and more. Which is why I was only able to watch bits and pieces of the MTV VMAs. So just a few By Lainey • Sep 13, 2010 02:23 am
