What Else What Else? Do you know who the British Royal Magnificent Seven are? The word “magnificent” is a stretch here, apparently, because some people have pointed out that there doesn’t seem to be all that much excitement about the allegedly magnificent royal seven. And that’s an issue for the royal PR By Lainey • Mar 02, 2021 04:02 pm
Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, March 2, 2021 Yesterday I posted about Alec and Hilaria Baldwin’s surprise baby announcement. It’s a surprise because Lucia (the new baby) and Edu (born in December 2020) are months apart. Katie Rosman interviewed Hilaria for the New York Times back in December (during the whole “how do you say cucumber By Maria • Mar 02, 2021 02:14 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews We could have Michael B. Jordan as Superman On Friday, news broke that Warner Brothers is setting up a new Superman film to be produced by JJ Abrams and his Bad Robot team and written by Ta-Nehisi Coates.

Business of Hollywood You had me at “Clooney-Roberts rom-com” Have you re-watched Ocean’s 11 recently? It TOTALLY holds up. Ocean’s 12 holds up, too. As far as I am concerned, there are only three Ocean’s movies, 8, 11, and 12, and I have re-watched them all (they were on Netflix, now they’re on HBO Max) By Sarah • Mar 02, 2021 11:16 am
TV Updates The Bachelor Storm Continues Just when I thought Bachelor Nation couldn’t get any crazier, it did. Before we get into “Women Tell All”, here’s a little catchup on all things Bachelor Nation... Shortly after my article about Rachael Kirkconnell’s video statement went up on Friday, I noticed some tweets saying former By Anastasia • Mar 02, 2021 10:31 am

What Else What Else? Viola Davis’s dress was magnificent last night at the Globes. I was so curious about it because you could only see it from the chest up but they cut to her every chance they got – because she’s Viola but also because that dress really popped in her shot.

Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, March 1, 2021 JLo Beauty has been sending out skin care fridges and it certainly makes sense to send one to Drew Barrymore because, besides her talk show, she has been doing “Beauty Week” on her Instagram for years, sharing her favourite products that range from luxury to drug store brands.

Golden Globes 2021 A Red Dress for Rosamund Pike I am… a little bit afraid of Rosamund Pike. And I think that’s OK. I think it’s a compliment about her performances, how she can be subtly sinister. Rosamund doesn’t rely on predictable ways of conveying danger (ahem, Jared Leto); rather it’s the way she can By Lainey • Mar 01, 2021 12:11 pm
Style The Golden Globe Triumphs of Regina King It is very late and lazy to be using “what can’t Regina King do?!” as a framework for a piece – I mean, late in the night, but especially late in her recent run of media domination, even if One Night in Miami didn’t get any recognition last night.

Golden Globes 2021 Anya & Tiffany: The Law of Golden Globes As mentioned in the open, I’m not sure there was that much fashion to talk about at last night’s Golden Globes, and definitely not in comparison to years past or even the Emmys. There were, of course, a few standouts. And two of them were produced by Law By Lainey • Mar 01, 2021 10:42 am
Equality Issues Chloe Zhao in the Lead Chloe Zhao made history last night at the Golden Globes. She’s now only the second woman to win Best Director after Barbra Streisand did it in 1983 – which means it’s been, do the math, 38 years between women – and the first woman of Asian descent to be given By Lainey • Mar 01, 2021 09:39 am
Golden Globes 2021 Maya & Kenan & Barb & Star & The Hoodie Once we all dispensed with the pretense that the Globes was going to be fun or glamorous or in any way functional, the unintentional joys appeared, mostly in wardrobe form (and yes, it was mostly men who felt entitled to not GAF) but neither Bill Murray’s cabana shirt nor By Duana • Mar 01, 2021 09:09 am
Golden Globes 2021 The Crown: A Royal Sweep Not the best night for the actual British royals was it?

Golden Globes 2021 Chadwick Boseman’s Golden Globe Last night, Chadwick Boseman took home the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Motion Picture, Drama, the fourth Black actor to do so in the award’s history.
