David Beckham The Blonde Posh By now I’m sure you’ve seen it. Victoria’s new ‘do. Now blonde and bimbo and weave and wavy is one thing. But short and sassy in a sea of straggly locks? Love, love, love. Here she is rockin’ a shorter version of her signature cut, lightened for By Lainey • Feb 28, 2007 07:00 am
Denzel Washington Grey’s Anatomy: the annus horribilis After two topnotch seasons, #3 has been less than stellar. First the gaycist drama with Isaiah Washington, then the revisiting of the gaycist drama with Isaiah Washington following the Globes in January, then Katie Heigl’s defence of TR Knight, then TR’s self defense on Ellen, then Isaiah goes By Lainey • Feb 28, 2007 07:00 am
Jennifer Garner Taupe: Work Above Oscar Where was Jennifer Garner? Here she is at the weekend playing in the park. On the night when her husband would be confronted by not one but two formidable exes, Jennifer Garner stayed in Vancouver with Violet instead, preferring to focus on her role in Juno. And I’m sorry By Lainey • Feb 28, 2007 07:00 am
Elton John Posh in white, Posh in black In white at Elton John’s party, she also attended VF. And watching this woman pose is the treat of a lifetime. You can tell she has spent hours and hours and hours in her bedroom practicing, jutting out one hip, adjusting all the bones in her back, in absolute By Lainey • Feb 27, 2007 07:00 am
Mos Def Madge & Guy: Deathgrip at VF She looked stunning, similar to how she looked in that Sex coffee table book over a decade ago. Which is kinda weird but whatever. Definitely not as weird as her chemistry with her husband. You see it in the photos all the time – his grip on her, always clasping her By Lainey • Feb 27, 2007 07:00 am
Katie Holmes Tom Cruise: Presenting Katie Holmes OK the photo alone is ridiculous enough but watching it is even funnier. Somewhere out there I hope Vanity Fair releases for public consumption their own video feed from the event – f*cking hilarious. In the meantime, I’ll try to explain it as best I can. As you can By Lainey • Feb 27, 2007 07:00 am
Penelope Cruz Three Whiskers after hours Monday morning 4am – as I mentioned earlier I was waiting for a pick up at the Roosevelt with eTalk host Ben Mulroney when we saw Orly just getting back from post-Oscar partying. He went upstairs, came back downstairs to an SUV full of eager girls waiting inside. When he opened By Lainey • Feb 27, 2007 07:00 am
Intro for Feb 27, 2007 Post-Oscar Gossip Still to follow: smut and observations from the parties. Please excuse typos , will include the immediate goods first (TomKat and Posh and Orlando) and come back later for more. It’s Tuesday 4am, been up since Saturday and crystal meth is absolutely never the option. Apologies to the By Lainey • Feb 27, 2007 07:00 am
Ashlee Simpson Best Just Missed: Cameron Diaz For the sake of objectivity, in real life, Cameron Diaz is actually quite feminine. Or at the very least, she was feminine on Oscar night. Soft hair, sweet face (yes, sweet…can you believe it?), she floated down the carpet in the most breathtaking Valentino. And while it may have By Lainey • Feb 26, 2007 07:00 am
Reese Witherspoon Best Bitch: Reese Witherspoon Another Nina Ricci, probably a tad too similar to the Globes and the SAGs but still, from head to toe – absolutely flawless. Now I’ve seen her before, I saw her at TIFF, at the premiere of Penelope, and even then I was amazed by her beauty. But on Oscar By Lainey • Feb 26, 2007 07:00 am
Kirsten Dunst Worst Just Missed: Kiki Dunst Because of her sh-tty posture, again…the photos did not do this gown justice. It is an AMAZING dress up close. Have a look at it on the runway – the detailing is divine. So the choice, in other words, was perfect. How it was worn however is another matter. Didn’ By Lainey • Feb 26, 2007 07:00 am
Gwyneth Paltrow Best Dressed: Gwyneth Paltrow Call me biased all you want, but if the authority on all things fashion is a Gay Man, my Gwyneth rocked it hardcore at the Oscars in spectacular style, because every gay man I’ve consulted on the matter, from here to Australia, enthusiastically flapped and fanned his approval. And By Lainey • Feb 26, 2007 07:00 am
Most Disappointing: Eva Green It’s not that I don’t think she looks beautiful. Because of course she looks beautiful. But she also looks the same. Same vibe from the BAFTAs and the Bond promo all over Europe, same groove for months: the wonky hair, the dark eyes - it’s gettin’ kinda By Lainey • Feb 26, 2007 07:00 am
Nicole Kidman Best Bond I’m sorry…been a little slow on the draw today – still haven’t slept, still wrapping up today’s show for eTalk, and have just been assigned to one more day in LA. Perhaps I’ll run into Orly again at the crack of dawn in the Roosevelt lobby? By Lainey • Feb 26, 2007 07:00 am
Orlando Bloom Three Whiskers up close Quick fashion interruption – thought you’d want to know. Ben and I were waiting to be picked up outside the Roosevelt at 4am for morning talk show interviews. Orlando Bloom rolls in with a wingman or two, heads upstairs, comes back down a few minutes later and an SUV full By Lainey • Feb 26, 2007 07:00 am
Worst Animal: Kelly Preston Ah…no. Absolutely not. Absolutely never. Absolutely under no circumstances, I don’t give a sh-t who you are, I don’t care if Xenu himself arrived in his spaceship to bless it … this dress is WRONG. And this dress on the Oscar red carpet is not only wrong, it By Lainey • Feb 26, 2007 07:00 am
