Girlcrushes BAFTA My Marion Last year she presented herself at the BAFTAs in angel winged gorgessity from head to toe and took home a mask. This year, it’s a different Marion. Not her best dress by far (hate it) and her hair looks lank and unwashed… But this is my girl. My girl By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 01:17 am
Douchebags BAFTA Shia Shia LaBeouf skipped the red carpet entirely at the BAFTAs. It’d be easy to rip his balls off for it like he’s Gwyneth Paltrow or Katie Holmes - all of a sudden too good for press at an awards show. But I find it harder to hate on Shia By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 01:14 am
Girlcrushes BAFTA Winslet The dress is Zac Posen, fit her beautifully. I likey much better than the other black one from the Globes. And her speech was better too. Short, concise, heartfelt… Will it be her last of the season? Or will she have the chance again on Oscar night. She is the By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 01:06 am
BAFTA 2009 BAFTA Goldie Hot Mess Is she senile? Was she drunk? Both? Whatever the reason, every minute was the best thing ever. And she still managed to be endearing. Completely off her tree, momentarily incapable of reading, escaping to the beach for 5 seconds or so at one point, there may have been a joint By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 12:59 am
BAFTA 2009 BAFTA Red Hot Mess: Sharon Stone Sharon Stone and Madonna are both 50. I’d say Sharon’s work is less… jarring…than Madge’s? She really does look great. Wears that dress beautifully. Face has been enhanced but not alarmingly so. Very Demi Moore. But as we all know, Sharon Stone is f-cking crazy. By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 12:55 am
Quiveration BAFTA Bonus: Jim Sturgess Don’t know who he’s with. But her outfit is kinda badass. And – please forgive me if it’s a relative – together they look like hot dirty sex. Don’t let it be a relative! It’s so rare to see him… like months and months between sightings…and By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 12:50 am
Bad Style BAFTA Stripper: Marisa Tomei Enough with the Academy rewarding strippers with a heart of gold. Every year there’s a stripper with a heart of gold nominated for something. Am over it. It’s done. Anyway, Marisa apparently dressed for her character at the BAFTAs – f*ck me hair and a showgirl dress that’ By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 12:46 am
BAFTA 2009 BAFTA Body: Gemma Arterton Why Gemma Arterton? Because we can’t see her bones. Can you say the same about 95% of other young actresses these days? Hell no. So some love for Gemma, yes? Yes. Gemma Arterton, who was in Bond for maybe 4 minutes, owned her curves in black at the BAFTAs. By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 12:41 am
BAFTA 2009 BAFTA Youthful: Emma Watson Emma Watson is 18. She looks 18, doesn’t she? She acts 18. She dresses 18. She moves 18. And while her dress is not my favourite, this doesn’t matter. What matters is that it’s appropriate. And she isn’t pushing 40. And she doesn’t look like By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 12:38 am
Quiveration BAFTA RDJ His usual charming self on the carpet tonight with wife Susan. They were super kissy face, lucky bitch. Seriously, for someone who abused drugs for so long, he’s holding up remarkably well…unlike Whitney Houston. More on that later during Grammy wrap. RDJ carries around a lunchbox with vitamins By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 12:26 am
Girlcrushes BAFTA Blasé: Meryl Streep She doesn’t have to. So she doesn’t. But she respects the occasion too even though this outfit is probably 20 years old and recycled from an awards show during the (to borrow from her speech at the Globes for her Adaptation win) Pleistocene era. Meryl Streep at the By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 12:20 am
Bad Style The BAFTAs 2009 I love the BAFTAs. They’re so all business. It’s like, let’s get on with it, move it along, we’re not caught up in our own importance. And the feed I was watching was broadcast straight through with only one commercial break after the first hour. Maybe By Lainey • Feb 09, 2009 12:14 am
Milo Ventimiglia Hayden dates her age Good. If true…it’s very, very good. Radar is reporting that 2 nights ago at Crown Bar Hayden Panettiere and Jesse McCartney were mauling each other in plain view. She was grinding on his lap, then was nuzzling her neck, then they went outside for ciggies and made out By Lainey • Feb 06, 2009 09:52 am
Kate Winslet You are not alone Kate Winslet, Ralph Fiennes, and David Kross (he is so cute!) today in Berlin at a presser for The Reader. Have you seen it yet? It’s worth seeing, not only because Harvey campaigned so hard it took away The Dark Knight’s spot for Best Picture nomination, but because By Lainey • Feb 06, 2009 07:38 am
Maple Leaf The Male SJP This has to stop: the aggressive photoshopping of magazine covers – even for men! Yesterday it was Sarah Jessica Parker getting a computer face. Today, perhaps not so extreme but notable nonetheless, it’s Ryan Reynolds on the cover of Men’s Health. Something’s happening with his nose, I think. By Lainey • Feb 06, 2009 05:58 am
Christian Bale Rate his apology Christian Bale called into KROQ this morning to apologise for going nuclear…and to explain himself too. It’s hard to be objective when his accent is so sexy. Sigh. We will try. Shall we rate his apology? As far as celebrity contrition goes this one sits pretty high on By Lainey • Feb 06, 2009 05:34 am
