Oscars 2024 Witches and Colour at the Oscars As noted in my post about achromatic looks at the Oscars, there wasn’t much colour, not at the awards proper and not even at Vanity Fair, which is why those who did go with colour popped even more. For Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, it was colour and character. By Lainey • Mar 11, 2024 01:18 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Wicked is the latest stealth musical The other biggest trailer of Super Bowl Sunday is that for Wicked, the first in a two-part adaptation of the Broadway musical, itself adapted from Gregory Maguire’s 1995 novel.

Douchebags Scooter Braun: A Gossip Mystery The Scooter Braun story is a mess… which is why I love it so much. And not for the same reason as the Swifties, who’ve been throwing a Scooter Braun is over party for days, but specifically because it’s so messy, because this gossip is so opaque, because By Lainey • Aug 23, 2023 02:49 pm
