Ebola Victims Desperate Ebola in Cannes The Croisette has been contaminated this week by Ebola Paris Hilton and that loser it’s been dragging around as its boyfriend. We’ve managed to avoid infection thus far, have not run into them at any parties. Fingers crossed. Should probably stay away from VIP Room tonight though. It’ By Lainey • May 21, 2009 08:33 am
Hook Ups He doesn’t ask for much Just a set of fake cans. Long legs to wrap around his waist. And nothing in the way of conversation. Makes sense. After all, wouldn’t call Chris Pine the most cerebral of stars. And he’s in no danger of earning that reputation now, especially since, according to the By Lainey • May 21, 2009 05:01 am
Maple Leaf Diane Kruger’s Basterd day She looked incredible at the photo call in the morning. Amazing. The hair! Will be copying the hair. Last night on the carpet – meh on the dress. Guess why? It’s Marchesa! And Inglourious Basterds has Harvey Weinstein all over it. Anyway, Diane’s profile has been pretty low key By Lainey • May 21, 2009 04:23 am
Quiveration Get me to New York Ryan Gosling. Why can’t it be Ryan Gosling shooting in Vancouver for months on end? Have just squandered 15 minutes of valuable blogging time mooning over these photos – Ryan and Michelle Williams in New York shooting a tender kiss scene in My Blue Valentine. The way he’s grabbing By Lainey • May 21, 2009 03:47 am
Douchebags Annual on the terrace 2 From dinner it’s a long beautiful, palm tree-lined walkway up to the terrace bar for drinks looking out over the gardens. A stunning view. When it’s go go go for several days straight on the crowded Croisette, it’s not a bad idea to get away from the By Lainey • May 21, 2009 03:10 am
Girlcrushes Annual on the terrace It’s the fourth year for us at Cannes. And every year we have at least one night at the du Cap. On a night when it’s best to get away from the Croisette, when we don’t have any evening assignments, we make our pilgrimage. There is no By Lainey • May 21, 2009 01:23 am
Famewhores Pitt Porn for Basterds It’s the third year in a row. And there’s something about Cannes that brings out the best in the Brange. The heat and humidity, the moistness in the air, all of it gets magnified tenfold between them and they take their hot and horny chemistry onto the carpet By Lainey • May 21, 2009 12:41 am
Intro for May 21, 2009 Dear Gossips, Oh Brange. It’s my annual dose of Pitt Porn. The Pitt Porn in Cannes is extra potent. Has rejuvenating powers.

Douchebags Which one is the Fantasy Girl? Porny Simpson, I think. John knew it. He had Shame Face about nailing her but he couldn’t help himself. Say what you will about her but it’s certain: there are many men out there who jerk off to Jessica Simpson. I’ve never met one however who jerks By Lainey • May 20, 2009 05:51 am
Cannes 2009 Pitt Porn teaser! Tonight they’ll do it full on carpet style. But last night a little more private. Radaronline has just secured these photos of the Brange kissing last night. Cannes obviously gives them an added little juice. Couple of years ago the same thing happened. They got into the back of By Lainey • May 20, 2009 04:58 am
Zac Efron Poor Man’s LipGloss? It’s one thing for Megan Fox to be called the Poor Man’s Angelina Jolie. I mean at least the subject is Angelina Jolie. But imitating, and failing, at imitating LipGloss? Dude, is that a good move? Zac Efron dropped out of Footloose claiming he did not want to By Lainey • May 20, 2009 03:55 am
Natalie Portman Who knew? That Joseph Gordon Levitt had this underneath his clothes? Penis duel with Michael Cera, he wins this battle non? Don’t think Michael Cera hits the gym. Obviously Joseph Gordon Levitt has been working out. On the set of Hesher with Natalie Portman, shooting a scene in which they both By Lainey • May 20, 2009 03:22 am
Cheating Loins Sound familiar? Once upon a time, Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe presented together at the Oscars. He told her to open the envelope because she made more money. Many raised eyebrows. I took it as a joke. But as her star began to climb, as she became one of the highest paid, By Lainey • May 20, 2009 03:03 am
Quiveration Brad in the morning A fried rice day indeed. The press screening was at 8:30am. Here’s how it works: thousands of journalists are accredited every year for the Cannes Film Festival. We’re able to view films at scheduled press screening times but only on a first come first serve basis colour By Lainey • May 20, 2009 02:52 am
Gorgessity Pitt Tenderness After a visit to The Hague, the Jolie arrived in Cannes yesterday to join Brad for dinner with the Inglourious Basterds team debunking yet again tabloid reports of a split or a meltdown.
