Emmy Awards 2022 Intro for September 14, 2022 Dear Gossips, Yesterday in the open about the Emmys I wrote that I’ll be interested in what the ratings are because I wasn’t convinced that people cared, and the timing wasn’t great with so much sh-t going on even before the Queen died and the 24-hour non-stop By Lainey • Sep 14, 2022 09:08 am
What Else What Else? In yesterday’s open, I wrote about royal media coverage and how some British royal reporters are getting it so wrong and so often that their fallacies are informing public opinion about Meghan Markle – which is a total betrayal of journalistic standards. Angela Levin is one of those people…and By Lainey • Sep 13, 2022 03:00 pm
Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, September 13, 2022 Burning Man is not as celeb-heavy as Coachella but this year, a few made their way to the desert including Kaia Gerber and Cindy Crawford. Could you do Burning Man, or any festival, with your mom? Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly are still together despite rumbles of a split By Maria • Sep 13, 2022 02:28 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews TIFF Review: The Fabelmans The Fabelmans is a semi-autobiographical account of filmmaker Steven Spielberg’s childhood, marking the first time Spielberg is credited for a screenplay since 2001’s A.I.: Artificial Intelligence. Playwright Tony Kushner returns after adapting West Side Story for Spielberg last year to co-write the script, and Spielberg continues his By Sarah • Sep 13, 2022 01:34 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews TIFF Review: Weird: The Al Yankovic Story Since he’s a parody songwriter, a parody biopic suits Weird Al Yankovic perfectly. Though it inevitably draws comparisons to Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, Weird: The Al Yankovic Story more accurately does for music biopics what Zoolander did for the fashion industry. A zany, silly, deeply funny lampooning By Sarah • Sep 13, 2022 12:52 pm
BFFs Does Gigi know Leo? Even before it was officially confirmed that Leonardo DiCaprio and Camila Morrone had broken up just a couple of months after her 25th birthday, there were whispers online about him and Gigi Hadid. As mentioned yesterday, New York Fashion Week is happening right now and, well, where else would Leo By Lainey • Sep 13, 2022 12:15 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews TIFF Review: The Whale Content warning for eating disorders, fatphobia, self-harm, and emotional/verbal abuse. If you ever need proof that film festival audiences can be completely bonkers, look no further than Darren Aronofsky’s The Whale, a film that received a 97-year ovation at its premiere at the Venice International Film Festival, and By Sarah • Sep 13, 2022 11:35 am
Top Reads Best Dressed: Quinta Brunson and Abbott Elementary I’ve decided that the best thing about Sheryl Lee Ralph’s win last night is that it was all the things. It was unexpected – in a stacked category, she was not favoured to win, particularly, though I don’t think there’s anyone out there who doesn’t love By Duana • Sep 13, 2022 10:30 am
Emmy Awards 2022 The Year of Squid Game In 2021, the Emmys took place on September 19, just two days after Squid Game premiered on Netflix. Everyone was oblivious then, no one had any idea that Squid Game would go on to become the most-watched series in Netflix history and come to the Emmys a year later and By Lainey • Sep 13, 2022 10:04 am
Emmy Awards 2022 The White (And Red, And Green, And Magenta) Lotuses… I need to start this post with an apology to Mare Winningham and Kaitlyn Dever, both of whom were in Dopesick, but who must have known, when they saw the Best Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie, that there was absolutely no chance they were getting By Duana • Sep 13, 2022 09:37 am
Top Reads Zendaya’s Historic Night In 2020, Zendaya won the Lead Actress in a Drama Emmy for her performance in season one of Euphoria. She’s now two for two as she won again in the same category last night, making history in the process as the first Black woman to win in that category By Lainey • Sep 13, 2022 09:08 am
Emmy Awards 2022 Emmys High Point: Lizzo This tweet struck me tonight: I got close pic.twitter.com/btBymFMKQA — Henry Winkler (@hwinkler4real) September 13, 2022 First because who doesn’t love Henry Winkler, second because I’d bet money he wrote it himself – it’s not a good enough angle to be chosen by someone who cares By Duana • Sep 13, 2022 08:47 am
Seth Rogen Jean, Kerry, and the Men in White White was probably the most popular colour on the carpet at the Emmys last night. Oprah wore white, as did Selena Gomez, and Jean Smart, who won her second Emmy in a row for her performance in Hacks, was glorious in white. The mood here is golden age Hollywood.

Emmy Awards 2022 Only UnderDogs In The Building If you haven’t met me (it’s been a minute) you are free to shout at me for not being a fan of Ted Lasso. It’s entirely personal, between me and sports and aw-shucks-ism, and I reserve the right to be into it in 12-15 years, but for By Duana • Sep 13, 2022 07:14 am
Emmy Awards 2022 Sandra, Reese, Christina, Lily: Emmys sparkle and shimmer I think I mentioned last week at some point that I was curious to see what the level of fashion would be at the Emmys after Venice and TIFF because, well, the stars threw it down in Venice and Toronto. So, to be honest, after so many showstopping looks from By Lainey • Sep 13, 2022 06:27 am
Emmy Awards 2022 Amanda Seyfried Left It With Lizzie You know what’s obnoxious about me? (How long do you have?) I’m a gloater. I can’t help it. Not when it’s going to hurt anyone else, or anything like that, but when Amanda Seyfried won the Emmy last night, I immediately smugged that I called it By Duana • Sep 13, 2022 06:04 am
