Girlcrushes BAFTA Best: Emma Stone Many of you weren’t feeling her as a blonde. Emma Stone’s appearance at the BAFTAs should take care of that? Perhaps she’s softened it a little. Whatever it is, it’s amazing and it pops and I love that she’s into so much colour right now By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 08:42 pm
Quiveration BAFTA King: Colin Firth Well who else would it be? He was the Best Actor. His costars were the Best Supporting Actors. His film was the Best Film. Colin Firth went home and they called her Your Majesty. Also, I just tried to spell that with a “G” and got told off by spellcheck By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 08:37 pm
BFFs BAFTA Best 90’s velvet: Julianne Moore Written by Duana I’m dating myself here, but the very first thing I thought when I saw this dress was a long, crushed-velvet dress I used to wear in high school. Anyone? They came in the richest, most ‘muted’ jewel tones – and we wore them and felt so glam. By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 08:31 pm
Thinnification BAFTA Worst: Jennifer Lawrence Cut off her head and, well, wouldn’t you expect that it was Blake Lively wearing this dress? Maybe Blake Lively wouldn’t have worn that choker. So 90s. But you get the idea, right? There’s so much titty action happening here, and I’m not sure Jennifer Lawrence By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 08:25 pm
BAFTA 2010 BAFTA TSN Handsome: Jesse & Andrew Written by Sarah Without all-American Armie Hammer and the style of Justin Timberlake to fall back on, Jesse Eisenberg and Andrew Garfield had to bring it to the BAFTAs to represent the cast of The Social Network. They didn’t disappoint. Garfield, as I’ve said before, has a frame By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 08:19 pm
Girlcrushes BAFTA one shoulder: Annette Bening & Emma Watson Two actresses – one a veteran, in the third act of her career, the other an ingénue, perhaps trying to terminate the first act of her career to begin a long, long second act that will see her emerge from underneath the heavy weight of a beloved literary character to embody By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 08:09 pm
Assy Style BAFTA Minnie Driver Written by Duana Prevailing wisdom says Minnie – who has had a series of ridiculously hard knocks in the romance department, but who works steadily if not flashily – can act. I don’t doubt it’s the case. I have yet to see Barney’s Version, mostly because to a person, By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 08:02 pm
Style BAFTA Lisbeth: Noomi Rapace’s moment Written by Sarah The BAFTAs represent Noomi Rapace’s most prominent recognition for her work as Lisbeth Salander in the Millennium Trilogy, specifically The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. If you didn’t see the Swedish trilogy, Noomi is amazing. It’s a revelation, the once-in-a-lifetime break that catapults an By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 07:57 pm
Style BAFTA why are you there Jessica Alba? The blue is lovely on her. Really, really sharp. It’s Versace. (The Jolie wears Versace a lot. I wish she’d chosen this for herself at the Golden Globes instead of looking like she’d just walked out of a polygamist sect.) I do love the double braid. A By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 07:50 pm
BAFTA 2010 BAFTA Worst Maroon Matron: Neve Campbell Written by Duana Email exchange: Lainey: Unless - do you care about Neve Campbell? Because YIKES. Me: She is my girl crush Lainey: Oh Christ. Yes, ‘another one’. The facts are as follows: Campbell is Canadian, and before she was Julia Salinger, she played a parallel-universe Brenda Walsh type (well, By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 07:44 pm
BAFTA 2010 BAFTA Hoult: Nicholas Hoult Written by Sarah Nicholas Hoult is the only exception to my “no young’uns” rule. He’s the blue print for my type. Tall, nice eyes, sharp dresser, little bit of strut. That strut was in full evidence at the BAFTAs yesterday. It’s shaping up to be a big By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 07:37 pm
Harry Potter BAFTA Ron Weasley: Rupert Grint He was there to celebrate Harry Potter’s Outstanding British Contribution To Cinema. Good timing. The BAFTAs are sandwiched between the release of the Deathly Hallows Part 1, which of course happened in November, and Part 2 which is scheduled for July 15th. Is it July 15th yet? Among so By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 07:28 pm
Assy Style BAFTA you can do better: Hailee Steinfeld Have been really, really impressed with Hailee Steinfeld’s awards season and premiere style choices. Her selection for the BAFTAs however fell a little short of standard. Not feeling the tricked out sheer top. Not feeling whatever it is that’s coming out of her waist. Reminds me of Mad By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 07:23 pm
BAFTA 2010 BAFTAs 2011 I really, really love the British star system. I wish Canada would encourage a star system. There are stars in Britain who are super, super, super famous there and no one knows who the f-ck they are outside their borders. Like those girls in Girls Aloud. I’m not actually By Lainey • Feb 13, 2011 07:17 pm
