Gorgessity Rihanna’s New Hair and Fix Rihanna changes her hair often so it’s not like every hair change for her is newsworthy. What makes this hair change newsworthy is that she’s gone real short, shorter than she’s worn her hair in a while. As in… years? Like a really, really long time I By Lainey • May 06, 2021 11:02 am
Relationship Assumption Jodie Turner-Smith’s One Night Stand I’ve read a lot of Jodie Turner-Smith interviews. I haven’t seen a lot of Jodie Turner-Smith interviews and certainly not on North American late night television, so it’s not yet familiar to me what she sounds like as herself.

Gorgessity Outfit of the Week: Leslie Jones Leslie Jones presented at the ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood event last night and the outfit she wore may be my favourite of all the outfits she’s ever worn.

Style Intro for April 22, 2021 Dear Gossips, All signs point to the fact that fashion will be a conversation at the Oscars. Keep your eye on Regina King.

Models Anya and Tiffany Anya Taylor-Joy is one of pop culture’s biggest sensations so, of course, it makes sense that she’s being offered brand ambassadorships.

Gorgessity JLo, Charlize Theron, and the J-dough?! Jennifer Lopez covers the May 2021 issue of InStyle and I really like what they’ve done with this feature – “in her own words (and everyone else’s)” so we’re getting JLo on JLo but we’re also getting dozens of other celebrities and dignitaries, like Michelle Obama, Matthew By Lainey • Apr 06, 2021 11:43 am

Gorgessity How Rihanna goes for groceries I haven’t been to a grocery store in a long time. I do, however, try to make it to the butcher every weekend and when I do… this is not what I look like. I actually don’t look at what I look like because it’s a real By Lainey • Mar 30, 2021 03:45 pm

Style The Golden Globe Triumphs of Regina King It is very late and lazy to be using “what can’t Regina King do?!” as a framework for a piece – I mean, late in the night, but especially late in her recent run of media domination, even if One Night in Miami didn’t get any recognition last night.
