BFFs The Girls are OK Sometimes the gossip that comes out of an award show is beefy. Two stars refusing to sit next to each other. Actors avoiding each other on the red carpet.

BFFs Pre-Thanksgiving with Scarjo, Sienna, and JLaw Scarlett Johansson was on Live! with Kelly and Mark today in New York. This caught my eye because Scarjo doesn’t have a movie to promote right now so, even though I haven’t watched the episode, presumably she was there not on a press tour for a film or By Lainey • Nov 26, 2024 12:00 pm

BFFs Celine and JLo: Alive and Survive! I can hear my husband upstairs laughing uncontrollably right now as I’m writing this… through tears. That’s what he’s hearing: my sobs.
