Relationship Assumption Scarjo could have been like Ben Affleck Ben Affleck is an A List star, no doubt. But he was Lindsay Shookus’s plus-one at the Emmys on Sunday night. Lindsay is a producer on Saturday Night Live. Ben is a member of SNL’s Five Timers Club. So is Scarlett Johansson. Scarjo, like Ben, is a legit By Lainey • Sep 19, 2017 12:04 pm

Emmy Awards 2017 Ben Affleck: Emmys Best & Worst Plus-One !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on. If you’re here for the gossip – WHAT ELSE IS THERE – Ben Affleck’s appearance at the Emmys was the best gossip of the night. He did not walk the carpet. He was not a nominee. Ben Affleck had no reason to be at the Emmys…except that By Lainey • Sep 18, 2017 02:54 pm
Assy Style Reese Witherspoon: Emmys Worst Dressed (Duana) Maybe I’m sleep deprived, but my first thought upon seeing Reese Witherspoon’s dress when she went up to accept the Emmy for Big Little Lies was, ohhh, interesting, she chose a ‘producer’ outfit rather than an ‘actress’ dress. Lainey’s response was, “That’s a way to defend By Duana • Sep 18, 2017 02:22 pm
Emmy Awards 2017 Mandy Moore: Emmys Worst Dressed (Kathleen) Mandy Moore’s likability is a problem. I know “likeable” can be a loaded word for women but there is no better a way to describe Mandy Moore. People like her. She’s Rebecca Pearson, currently holding the title of America’s favourite TV mom. She just seems like a By Kathleen • Sep 18, 2017 02:08 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
Style Jessica Biel: Emmys Best Dressed (Kathleen) Do not adjust your screens. That is Jessica Biel’s name beside BEST dressed instead of worst. It has almost happened before – at the Oscars. Lainey loved Jessica’s look but she was still included in a “Worst” post because of her husband. My ex-crush Justin Timberlake threw himself in By Kathleen • Sep 18, 2017 01:16 pm
Style Lena Waithe: Emmys Best Dressed, Best Prepped (Duana) If we have learned one thing from Taylor Swift, it is that there is no charm in fake surprise at an awards show win. Genuine surprise makes great TV – the gasping and gulping and ‘you like me!’ that fuels social media the next day—but the calm, faux splutter of By Duana • Sep 18, 2017 12:57 pm
Style Gabrielle Union: Emmys Best Dressed (Lainey) Words are unnecessary. I’m pretty sure I don’t have to defend this choice. But words are what we do here at LaineyGossip. And all my best words are for Gabrielle Union and how she looked at the Emmys last night. In a word: YES. Up and down and By Lainey • Sep 18, 2017 12:05 pm
Sit DOWN Shailene Woodley: The Emmy “reader” Imagine that you are lucky enough to be involved in the biggest project of the year, at your work, say. Imagine too that you are plucked to be among much more experienced, celebrated, talented people who have been working juuuust about as long as you’ve been alive. Imagine having By Duana • Sep 18, 2017 11:40 am
Emmy Awards 2017 Donald Glover’s Earnest Emmys Come on now. When’s the last time we saw someone react quite like this? I tweeted earlier that this was a game changer for Donald Glover in what was already a game-changer of a year. Atlanta is a hit, he’s a new dad (about to be again, apparently By Duana • Sep 18, 2017 11:17 am
Emmy Awards 2017 Riz Ahmed and Issa Rae: Emmys Best Couple Riz Ahmed and Issa Rae presented Outstanding Directing in a Comedy Series. From the moment they walked on to the Emmy stage, side by side, looking goddamn impeccable, I was imagining the life I want them to live together. Most people were tweet-wishing for Issa and Riz to star in By Kathleen • Sep 18, 2017 11:01 am
Top Reads Nicole Kidman: Emmys Best (and most controversial?) Acceptance Speech As Kathleen just wrote in her post about Alexander Skarsgard and the on-the-mouth kiss he shared with Nicole Kidman in front of Keith Urban when he was heading up to stage to accept his award, everybody calm down. In North America, we are too f-cking pearl-clutchy about these kisses. If By Lainey • Sep 18, 2017 10:19 am
Emmy Awards 2017 Alexander Skarsgard: Emmys Best ‘Stache Alexander Skarsgard and Nicole Kidman kissed on the lips while he made his way up to accept the Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie. It was a quick, affectionate peck and Keith Urban was right there. Everyone calm down. I had to get that out By Kathleen • Sep 18, 2017 09:57 am
Emmy Awards 2017 Zoe Kravitz: Emmy Colour Couture I love colour, especially in clothes. I am a sucker for a rainbow stripe, I rarely go for a black dress, and I inevitably wind up whining/wiggling my way out of writing about certain people during our awards show wraps because I haaaate nude/neutral dresses. This Zoe Kravitz By Duana • Sep 18, 2017 08:45 am
Emmy Awards 2017 Priyanka Chopra: Emmys Most Sweaty The weather was reportedly cool-ish and comfortable in LA for the Emmys last night but I still don’t believe that Priyanka Chopra wasn’t sweating profusely in this feathery Balmain, long-sleeved sweater dress. I like her and really wanted to like this dress but every time I looked at By Kathleen • Sep 18, 2017 08:32 am
