Ben Affleck No Ben at the Oscars Have received emails from many of you re: Ben Affleck’s absence at the Oscars but there really is nothing smutty to report. And even if there was, do you really think Taupe would let that go? Since marrying Ben and birthing Violet, ingratiating herself to the Mommy Majority, Jennifer By Lainey • Feb 27, 2008 02:28 am

Intro for Feb 27, 2008 Dear Gossips, Is there a course you can take for sleeping elegantly on a plane? No matter how cute the travel outfit, it doesn’t make a difference when you’re tired and flying. I was givin’er yesterday on my flight back to Vancouver. Like head back, open-mouth drools, By Lainey • Feb 27, 2008 01:42 am
David Beckham Annyong David! Remember Annyong Bluth? Snort. David Beckham arrived in Korea today on a promo tour with the LA Galaxy which means he will miss the final Spice Girls concert tonight in Toronto. Family members have flown in from around the world to support the Spices but it’ll be a Becks-free By Lainey • Feb 26, 2008 08:43 am
John Krasinski The Night Before with John & Rashida We were at the Beverly Hills Hotel on Saturday night where the Night Before Oscar party was happening. So many stars – better attended than the Oscars and I’ll be up for a week straight writing down all my observations. Will get to the breaking information first. John Krasinski and By Lainey • Feb 26, 2008 05:40 am
No Looking, No Talking, No Breathing Diva antics are rather pedestrian these days so it takes a super bitch and her ass attitude to really push the envelope. A photo shoot with a major artist. Much is riding on her new project. Everyone is busting their balls to make her look good. But it’s hard By Lainey • Feb 26, 2008 04:33 am
Oscar Thanks Skip to the next if you can’t stand it but it would be criminal not to thank those who helped make Oscar weekend so amazing. Here’s Dylan being Dylan posing with Oscar in his tux. Note – at the Oscars, EVERYONE has to dress up. Camera crew, assistants, technicians, By Lainey • Feb 26, 2008 04:22 am
Penelope Cruz Best Oscar Man: Javier Bardem He is a giant of a man. So tall, so sexy, so strong, so… MAN. We watched him stalking the carpet, full of nervous energy but chill at the same time. We watched him pose at the photo wall – something about the way he planted his legs firmly on the By Lainey • Feb 26, 2008 02:22 am
Marion Cotillard Best Oscar Dress: Marion Cotillard There was no dress last night as exquisite as hers. Not a dress for everyone, but for a French girl, with inimitable French style, wearing French couture, and charming everyone in the auditorium, it was perfect. Jack Nicholson apparently couldn’t get enough of her. At one point he was By Lainey • Feb 26, 2008 02:17 am
Johnny Depp Best Oscar Porn: Johnny & Vanessa Hers was my favourite black dress – beautifully constructed, up close you could see the gathers, and the way it fit around her waist was amazing. It was the first time I’d seen them together… was well worth the wait. Between Johnny and Vanessa, it’s not really porn like By Lainey • Feb 26, 2008 02:11 am
Jennifer Hudson Worst Oscar Breasts: Jennifer Hudson In photos they actually don’t look so droopy. In person however and on tv too they looked like a burden, like the weight of a hundred sandbags ready to collapse. Is Andre Leon Talley to blame for this one too? Poor thing had to wear a space station bolero By Lainey • Feb 26, 2008 02:05 am
Eggs in Public At an Oscar party on Sunday night, he"s been drinking, she"s been nagging. Turns into a huge, embarrassingly loud argument about the most personal of matters: she wants babies, he doesn"t, and they proceed to yell at each other about it in front of By Lainey • Feb 26, 2008 01:22 am
Best Oscar True: Diablo Cody Everyone knows her story by now: Diablo Cody, now an Oscar winning screenwriter used to be a stripper. Google the rest of you need to. The point is…Diablo Cody is far from conventional Oscar. And she never will be. So why would you want her to put on an By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 07:06 am
About Once In response to many of your emails today about Once’s big win over Enchanted last night – we were squealing in the press room. If you’ve seen it, you obviously know why. But this has now become my biggest fear – love a celebrity, or a film, or a song, By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 06:37 am
Patrick Dempsey Best Hair & Scowl: Patrick and Mrs Dempsey As usual, his hair knocked out all competition on the carpet. Even the women. Speaking of women, his woman brought her usual misery – permascowl glued to her face the entire carpet and even when she tried to smile the eyes were devoid of true amusement. Some people are just born By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 05:28 am
Brad Pitt The Big Bust Interrupting Oscar wrap-up to fill you in the much hyped Pitt/Aniston showdown Saturday at the Night Before Oscar party. Didn’t happen. Because the Pitts bailed. They spent a few hours at the Spirit Awards and then decided not to bother with the rest. Their absence can certainly be By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 05:11 am
