Movie Reviews and Previews Cate and Tilda arrive in Venice The Venice Film Festival opens tomorrow and here are Cate Blanchett and Tilda Swinton arriving ahead of the opening night gala. It feels so weird to be posting photos from a festival arrival – even though, around this time of year, this is what we do here. We see shots of By Lainey • Sep 01, 2020 03:42 pm
Equality Issues Cannes has decided to try The Cannes Film Festival is just a few months away—Spike Lee was announced as the first black jury president last month—and the festival has just announced their selection committee which features four men, and five women, giving women the majority say in selection for the first time.

Golden Globes 2020 Cate Blanchett is Underused at the Golden Globes By virtue of appearing here in the middle of the day (night? What time is it?), Cate Blanchett is neither mine nor Lainey’s Best Dressed of the night. Which is kind of bizarre, because this dress is utterly fantastic. It’s Mary Katranzou, one of my all-time favourites, but By Duana • Jan 06, 2020 10:46 am
BFFs Julia & Cate: Mr Armani’s favourites As mentioned earlier in the Tom Cruise post, Giorgio Armani was honoured last night with the Outstanding Achievement Award at the Fashion Awards in London and, in addition to Tom, he had his two favourites with him. Cate Blanchett is the first global beauty ambassador for Armani and she was By Lainey • Dec 03, 2019 12:30 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s stone dress We are definitely missing some Cate Blanchett this awards season. With Cate, it’s almost never boring. Even when you don’t like it, it’s not boring. Ugly is better than boring. This dress is not ugly, not at all. It’s Christopher Kane. Hilariously some people online are By Lainey • Feb 11, 2019 09:17 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Is this movie a mess? The first trailer for Where’d You Go, Bernadette, adapted from a novel by Maria Semple, was released yesterday, and it looks like a standard “quirky family dramedy”. It stars Cate Blanchett as Wacky Mom, Billy Crudup as her seemingly perfect but, I’m guessing, having-an-affair husband, Emma Nelson as By Sarah • Dec 19, 2018 01:22 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Another Jungle Book Jon Favreau made a hybrid live-action/animated Jungle Book that was really quite good, so much so it bagged him the job of directing the new Lion King, and also good enough that it threw Andy Serkis’s competing project into considerable shade. Back then Serkis’s project was called By Sarah • Nov 09, 2018 02:50 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s checkered bell bottoms You know how Blake Lively’s been trying to claim the suit on her recent press tour for A Simple Favour? And all of it seems so…effort-full? Here’s Cate Blanchett in a checkered suit that, well, probably only Cate Blanchett could pull off. Because of these pants. These By Lainey • Sep 17, 2018 03:43 pm
Cate Blanchett Intro for June 20, 2018 Dear Gossips, This happened a few days ago but I feel like we need some friendship today. Rihanna friendship but enhanced by a sneak MVP. Let me explain. Have you seen the clips of Rihanna on The Graham Norton Show with Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Sarah Paulson, and Helena Bonham By Lainey • Jun 20, 2018 09:03 am
Sandra Bullock When Cate and Sandy love your outfit The Ocean’s 8 UK premiere was last night. Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Mindy Kaling, Sarah Paulson, Helen Bonham Carter, and Rihanna were all there and naturally, they brought the fashion porn. Can we agree that whenever Rihanna wears something, there’s no point in complaining? Nobody should be expecting By Lainey • Jun 14, 2018 03:41 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Ocean’s 8 is sparkling rosé on a hot day That is to say, it’s delicious and indulgent and something to luxuriate in: a treat. Do you want to have a good time? A good time shall be had. Do you want to ogle outrageous wardrobes and gowns? Ogle you will. Are you here for a cast of talented By Sarah • Jun 08, 2018 10:41 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate Blanchett's Outfit of the Week Holy sh-t, this suit is amazing. Is it a suit? Yes. It’s … a f-cking track suit. Right? It’s a track suit and a business suit at the same time. Because… zipper! I mean, I wouldn’t mind it as a business suit either. It could definitely work as By Lainey • May 25, 2018 02:28 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s black and rainbow We’ve seen a lot of looks from Cate Blanchett at Cannes so far, being that she is the jury president. This one is my favourite of all her festival looks and the only reason I’m not holding it until Friday for the Outfit of the Week is because By Lainey • May 15, 2018 11:02 am
Equality Issues The Cannes Women’s March Eva Husson’s Girls in the Sun premiered at Cannes on Saturday, one of only three films in competition directed by a woman. Before the premiere, jury president Cate Blanchett led a march of 82 women up the famous red Palais steps. Significance? In the 71-year history of Cannes, only By Sarah • May 14, 2018 09:16 am
Style “Find someone who looks at you…” You know that meme, right? “Find someone who looks at you the way X looks at Y…”? The Cannes Film Festival kicked off earlier this week. And this is my favourite photo so far. Had it not been for the Met Gala on Monday, it would have probably been my By Lainey • May 11, 2018 04:22 pm
Equality Issues Cate Blanchett’s talking point The Cannes Film Festival opens next week, and Cate Blanchett is the jury president. Cannes is somewhat embattled of late, fighting with Netflix, adhering to their (outdated) high-heel policy, banning selfies, and continuing to struggle with representation among the filmmakers and films they invite to the Croisette. Cannes is an By Sarah • May 03, 2018 02:56 pm
