Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, March 3, 2020 WWHL is the last great talk show because they still have call-in questions that can’t be controlled. On the aftershow, a woman asked Elisabeth Moss (who is a Scientologist) about Tom Cruise (it’s at 3:38 in this video). She laughs it off but I wish Andy had By Maria • Mar 03, 2020 02:07 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Return to Wes Anderson’s Land of Impossible Twee Wes Anderson’s latest film, The French Dispatch, is set for a summer release and is expected to premiere at Cannes. If it does, it will bring a collection of stars to the Croisette unlike any other ensemble that could be assembled. Few directors can attract such high-wattage stars to By Sarah • Feb 12, 2020 02:17 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Elisabeth Moss takes over the Johnny Depp-less Invisible Man Tom Cruise’s The Mummy tanked, and Universal’s would-be Dark Universe collapsed. That meant no Russell Crowe Dr. Jekyll movie, no Javier Bardem Frankenstein, and no Johnny Depp Invisible Man. Earlier this year, Universal pivoted with their classic monster franchise and handed it to Jason Blum and his Blumhouse By Sarah • Nov 08, 2019 10:09 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The Kitchen is a mess There is nothing more frustrating than a movie that wastes a good premise AND a good cast: Welcome to The Kitchen, the most frustrating movie of 2019 (so far). Adapted from a comic book by Ollie Masters and Ming Doyle, The Kitchen is the directorial debut of screenwriter Andrea Berloff By Sarah • Aug 13, 2019 03:04 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews The Kitchen doesn’t belong in August A year ago, we learned that Tiffany Haddish, Melissa McCarthy, and Elisabeth Moss were co-starring in a movie, The Kitchen, about mob wives who take over when their husbands go to jail. I’ve been super into this movie ever since, and the first trailer has done nothing to dissuade By Sarah • May 31, 2019 01:16 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Jordan Peele keeps it simple with Us After a stunning debut like Get Out, anything less than equal success is bound to seem like a disappointment. Such is the case for Jordan Peele’s sophomore feature film, Us. Is it bad? Emphatically NO. But it’s not as deep or thematically grounded as Get Out, which is By Sarah • Mar 22, 2019 09:54 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The Us World Premiere at SXSW, and all that hype When Jordan Peele introduced Lupita Nyong’o at the world premiere of Us in Austin at SXSW on Friday night, she leapt from her seat and started punching the air to cheer for her film and hype up the crowd. She was PUMPED because she knew what we were about By Joanna • Mar 11, 2019 11:30 am
Golden Globes 2019 Elisabeth Moss & Rachel Brosnahan are Globes Wallflowers A humble prediction: these two are going to be the least talked-about Globe attendees – and one of them won. Not that I think anything should have gone down differently. Elisabeth Moss was deservedly beat by Sandra Oh, which got us one of the greatest moments of the broadcast. And Rachel By Duana • Jan 07, 2019 04:43 am
Emmy Awards 2018 Handmaids Cuteness at Emmys Maybe the key to this year is that the real awesomeness happened at the Creative Arts Emmys 10 days ago. Because Kenan Thompson won an Emmy, finally, and the shot of him kissing it is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen, and then Samira Wiley also won, for guest By Duana • Sep 18, 2018 06:47 am

Movie Reviews and Previews Tiffany Haddish and some other people Tiffany Haddish, as Duana noted after the Oscars, is a Star. She has It. When Tiffany Haddish is around, all you want to be looking at or listening to is Tiffany Haddish. And she is beginning to have projects built around her, as Stars do, including one called The Kitchen. By Sarah • Mar 21, 2018 01:24 pm
Oscars 2018 Elisabeth Moss, the Oscars, and pee I assumed I would walk away from my first weekend at the Oscars with some celebrity run-in anecdotes. I figured I would be riding elevators with Lin-Manuel Miranda (and Duana, she saw him first) or casually grabbing breakfast beside Zendaya and Tom Holland. That’s just what happens at the By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 05:08 am
TV Updates The Handmaid’s Tale season 2 The wait in between Game of Thrones seasons is LONG. GoT won’t be back until 2019. By the time we see the final season; we will have been waiting well over a year. I’m OK with the wait. I need a year to emotionally prepare for the fact By Kathleen • Jan 15, 2018 12:31 pm
Golden Globes 2018 Elisabeth Moss: Globes Good Girl It’s an ironic title, given the subject matter of The Handmaid’s Tale and the fact that social media keeps that dangling-cigarette-and-sunglasses shot of Peggy Olsen sharply in all our minds. But when Elisabeth Moss won last night and ran up onstage looking delighted, and then earnestly read the By Duana • Jan 08, 2018 12:24 pm
Emmy Awards 2017 Elisabeth Moss: Emmys Worst Dressed (Lainey) Millennial Pink is the official name of this colour. Winning Pink is what I’m calling it from now on at award shows. Gwyneth Paltrow wore pink, in this material, taffeta, when she won the Oscar. Anne Hathaway wore pink, in the same material, when she won her Oscar. And By Lainey • Sep 18, 2017 01:27 pm
