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
Heidi Klum Best Red: Heidi Klum Don’t really care for her personality and not particularly down with the hype about her gorgessity but when it comes to wearing a dress and doing it justice… Heidi Klum is the sh*t. I almost missed a cue on live tv last night because of this dress. First By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 04:30 am
Keri Russell Most Hungry: Renee Zellweger & Keri Russell I interviewed Keri Russell at Sundance for Waitress. She had just announced her pregnancy and she was beautiful. Lovely skin, lovely healthy glow, sweet shy demeanour … at the risk of sounding cheesy, I was totally enchanted. Then she arrived last night full of bones and not much else. We were By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 04:09 am
Helen Mirren Worst Queen: Helen Mirren Last year she rocked it in a Christian Lacroix. Last night she looked like she should have stayed home and needlepointed the evening away. In person, this dress was a disaster. I realise in photos and on tv, you were seeing the hot lights from the cameras and the set By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 03:49 am
Jennifer Garner Best Taupe: Jennifer Garner Normally Taupe Jennifer Garner brought it…and how. There was an edge to her on the carpet last night – something sassy, something confident, something really sexy in the way she walked, in the way she posed, in the way she invited people to look at her. It was a new By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 02:54 am
Keith Urban Worst Oscar Knocked Up: Granny Freeze Yeah so this whole doting wife, delicate flower sh*t is getting as old as her face. Look at them! Look at Gran and her man getting all emotional on us on the carpet – because posing in front of hundreds of screaming journalists and fans is exactly the place to By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 02:03 am
Jessica Alba Best Oscar Knocked Up: Jessica Alba As Marchesa goes, I guess it isn’t the worst. And the colour is gorgeous. And she is gorgeous in it. Here’s the pregnant Alba, glowing tonight on the carpet. LOVE the braids. Not so much tied back into that big nest by her neck but the middle part By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 01:40 am
George Clooney Worst Oscar Promise: George & Sarah If you’re George Clooney, the King of Hollywood, and you bring a girl to the Oscars, it is for real. Like a promise ring. Like a varsity jacket in high school. A global announcement on showbiz’s grandest stage – George shouted it out tonight confirming that this is more By Lainey • Feb 25, 2008 01:17 am
John Travolta The Oscars 2008 What’s up with the Coen Brothers? Is glib the right word? They were glib. They were honoured by the Academy and instead of being grateful, they were glib. Does being arty give you the right to be glib and ungrateful? And Jon Stewart – love Jon Stewart but wasn’t By Lainey • Feb 24, 2008 11:16 pm
Katherine Heigl Worst Oscar Dirty Face: Katherine Heigl The dress was gorgeous. And from the neck down, she looked gorgeous in it. But someone got a case of Dirty Face and it erupted at the worst time, screwing up an otherwise lovely homage to old Hollywood. Same could not be said however of what happened on stage. What By Lainey • Feb 24, 2008 07:00 pm
John Travolta Worst Matching Hairlines: John Travolta & The Rock It makes me crazy that we are in the minority, you know? In the minority of those who know. Who know about the Pilot Gay. Who know about popping tents during massage therapy. Who can smell the Mo in him through a photo on a computer. Who look at the By Lainey • Feb 24, 2008 07:00 pm
Seth Rogen Best Matching Hairlines: Seth Rogen & Jonah Hill The cutest!!! And in a day and age when brand name “A” list stars can’t sell movies anymore, wouldn’t you rather see Seth and Jonah, who are smart and funny and humble, wouldn’t you rather see them than Miley farking Cyrus on a red carpet??? This is By Lainey • Feb 24, 2008 07:00 pm
Miley Cyrus Worst Jailbait: Miley Cyrus To be fair, her dress was impressively appropriate. Impressively because we all know how often this 15 year old has been dressed appropriately of late. Which of course is not at all. The propriety, unfortunately, stops there. Because the child then proceeded to cocktease the carpet and the paparazzi so By Lainey • Feb 24, 2008 07:00 pm
Cate Blanchett Best Queen: Cate Blanchett Granny Freeze Nicole Kidman should be taking a pregnancy page out of fellow Aussie Cate’s expectant couture. This is Dries Van Noten and it is exquisite. You should have seen the embroidery on the skirt – it was like something out of Versailles circa Louis XIV. Ridiculous. And she is By Lainey • Feb 24, 2008 07:00 pm
Cameron Diaz Worst Taupe: Cameron Diaz Not even my new love for Cammie could have saved last night. Last night she was washed out and bland. Last night she was Ann Bland. Ann Bland from Arrested Development. Ann Veal. Ann Egg. Who? Her? Sigh. I miss that show. Anyway, about Cam and bland. Bland pale pink, By Lainey • Feb 24, 2008 07:00 pm
Tilda Swinton Best Oscar Androgynous Is she freaky-looking by conventional standards? Of course. Was her dress ugly as sh*t? Absolutely. But this is what makes Tilda Swinton so f&cking cool. She.Is.Cool. SO cool. I saw her on Saturday night at the Beverly Hills Hotel wearing a bright but pale pink By Lainey • Feb 24, 2008 07:00 pm
