Frauds Granny Fail in London The Hollywood Foreign Press Association loves Baz Luhrmann. So Australia likely won’t get ignored tomorrow when the Golden Globes are announced, especially since they have a sometimes confusing “musical or comedy” category. But Australia has been virtually shut out of all the critics’ association lists so far this week. By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 07:15 am
Maple Leaf Revenge & Upgrade Love it. Two scores with one move. Amazing. The new issue of Hello Canada features exclusive photos and details of Shania Twain’s romantic hook up with Frederic Thiebaud. Freddy is/was married to that woman with whom Shania’s husband had an affair. Apparently the two jilted spouses are By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 06:36 am
Clown In LA Lilo lurks After a whirlwind week in Europe promoting Twilight, Robert Pattinson returned home to LA yesterday. Home. To LA. Boo. Me I’m an anglophile. So of course I’d choose London over LA. But LA undeniably strips away all good things. Including accents. Kate Beckinsale was on Leno last night. By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 06:27 am
Brad Pitt For Clint Angelina Jolie showed up at the Gran Turino premiere last night to support Clint Eastwood killing it casual in those black pants but looking kinda clammy too. What’s up with the waxy face? I’m obsessed! The Jolie of course is Clint’s number 1 fan. What’s interesting By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 05:19 am
Maple Leaf Smile for America Shenae Grimes returned home to Canada last week for the Gemini Awards and reportedly acted like a massive twat towards the local media, apparently insisting that they were beneath her newly acquired and imagined elevated stature. Oh and paps are, like, so f-cking annoying, you know? This must be why By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 03:47 am
Famewhores A candid Brad in Rolling Stone As you know, he’s less gushy than the Jolie in interviews. More guarded, more reticent to talk about their relationship. But when he does… you know I’m buying. I love the Pitt Porn. Brad on the cover of the new issue of Rolling Stone, timed of course with By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 03:32 am
Coincidence or conspiracy A good 55 Kim Basinger turned 55 this week. And still she looks younger than Nicole Kidman, right? I hope my body’s that tight at 55. She doesn’t seem overly hungry either. Must be good genes. This is Kim last night at the premiere of While She Was Out with Leonardo By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 03:14 am
Quiveration Hamm on hiatus Not enough Jon Hamm, right? Well, he’s on hiatus from Mad Men. The good news is it doesn’t mean he’s not busy. Word is he’s joining 30 Rock as Liz Lemon’s love interest. And you can see him on Friday in the Day the Earth By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 02:49 am
Chills Chills Chills They bought it Tom’s tour of Toronto – a resounding success. But first the new cover of People Magazine: MiniVan friendly, good hair, that famous smile, a glimpse of Little Sci, and the tantalising prospect of seeing Tom’s personal family photos. Please. It’s brilliant. They will eat this sh-t up. Just By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 02:43 am
Parent Pimps The real star of the movie Last night at the premiere of the Day the Earth Stood Still – Keanu Reeves walked the carpet, spoke with the press, quietly promoted his movie. And then Will Smith and family came along and owned the rest. Will’s son Jaden stars alongside Keanu and Jennifer Connelly. Didn’t see By Lainey • Dec 10, 2008 01:53 am
Sports The loins are fickle Yeah so remember when I had inappropriate cougar feelings about Michael Phelps? Duana almost broke up with me over Michael Phelps. Every morning she’d give me five minutes to giggle and moan. And if it didn’t stop, she’d hang up on me over Skype. Skype hang-ups are By Lainey • Dec 09, 2008 12:28 pm
Douchebags More profundity from a douchebag groupie The UK Daily Mirror is claiming an exclusive with Jennifer Aniston. Take with a grain of salt but let’s run with it for now… Because the profundity of her profoundness is just too good to ignore. Apparently she talks about John Mayer. No. Actually… She gushes about John Mayer. By Lainey • Dec 09, 2008 09:36 am
Natalie Portman More Jizz, Pants, Dicks, and Boxes Could you stand a full album? Of Jizz in Pants and Dicks in a Box? Andy Samberg along with SNL writers Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer are releasing their first album titled Incredibad under their group name The Lonely Island. 14 tracks with collaborations with artists like Jack Black, Julian By Lainey • Dec 09, 2008 08:28 am
Gossip Girl Runaway Chuck Last night’s Gossip Girl made up for the Humphrey. The word Humphrey is now synonymous with ass. And now we have to wait til January f-cking 5th for a new episode. Gah! Does anyone care about anything other than Chuck and Blair? Leighton Meester makes my life. No. Leighton By Lainey • Dec 09, 2008 07:46 am
Katherine Heigl Later O’Malley Ausiello is reporting exclusively that TR Knight has asked ABC to release him from Grey’s Anatomy. Why? Because the show sucks sh-t. Right now TR remains dutifully employed but has been unhappy with his storyline for some time. Creatively stymied and, frankly, understanding that his character is clearly tapped By Lainey • Dec 09, 2008 06:34 am
Gorgessity Sexier in sweats Not saying it to sound like a bra burner either. To me, this is Porny at her sexiest. Super casual, dressed down, no makeup to trannify her features – Jessica Simpson has a pretty face. A very pretty face. She doesn’t need to hitch her tits up to her eyeballs By Lainey • Dec 09, 2008 06:13 am
