Gossip Nostalgia A Star on the Walk to Remember Mandy Moore received her star on the Walk of Fame yesterday. Her This Is Us costars were there to celebrate with her. But another costar made a surprise appearance: Shane West aka Landon Carter from A Walk to Remember. Look, that movie was my WHOLE SH-T for a year. That By Lainey • Mar 26, 2019 04:14 pm
Music The year of the scam continues in The Boy Band Con Scammers, as we’ve seen this year, are having a moment. That momentum continues with The Boy Band Con: The Lou Pearlman Story, the satisfying documentary about the late fraudster mogul who discovered Backstreet Boys, *NSYNC, Aaron Carter, O-Town, LFO, and most of your favourite 90s and early aughts pop By Joanna • Mar 14, 2019 12:49 pm
Gossip Nostalgia Luke Perry Gave 90s Kids High Standards Yesterday, like everyone else who came of age in the 90s, I mourned Luke Perry. He was beloved for his arc on Oz, his self-deprecating appearances on The Simpsons and SNL, and his fully-realized three-dimensional Fred Andrews on Riverdale – but, as he said himself, he was, and forever will be, By Duana • Mar 05, 2019 02:14 pm
BFFs Chris Martin’s birthday guests Chris Martin’s birthday was on Saturday. There was a party and a lot of celebrities were at the party, including his ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, who also wished him Happy Birthday on Instagram. Right after wishing her husband, Brad Falchuk, Happy Birthday the day before – his bday is on March By Lainey • Mar 04, 2019 11:46 am
TV Updates Welcome Back to West Beverly High The video teaser I’m posting below is only 10 seconds long. It has exactly zero familiar faces in it. So how, exactly, is it so satisfying? Kathleen and I were talking this weekend about songs that get stuck in your DNA. Mostly Christmas carols or hymns – and pop songs By Duana • Feb 28, 2019 12:14 pm
Gossip Nostalgia 90s Baes hash it out Macaulay Culkin and Devon Sawa were two of the biggest teen beat heartthrobs of the 1990s. Generation X got Johnny Depp, River Phoenix, and Then Keanu—who is pretty much the same as Now Keanu, to be fair. But for those of us slightly too young for Gen X’s By Sarah • Feb 19, 2019 04:20 pm
Gossip Nostalgia Gwyneth on Oscar week I wasn’t expecting to see Gwyneth Paltrow on the cover of Variety this week, this of all weeks. It’s Oscar week. Gwyneth is not involved at all at this year’s Oscars, at least not yet, unless, of course, she’s to be announced as a presenter. Which By Lainey • Feb 19, 2019 01:22 pm
Royals George Clooney defends Meghan Markle George Clooney was at the Winter TCA yesterday to promote his upcoming Hulu series Catch-22. Just a word on the Winter TCA – this used to be my assignment at etalk. I used to spend several days there every January working on coverage for our show.

Gossip Nostalgia Intro for February 12, 2019 Dear Gossips, After wrapping the site yesterday and recording a new episode of Show Your Work with Duana, I saw a tweet that changed my plans for the night. Maybe I was extra raw from the Grammys/BAFTA/Aniston 50th all-nighter but I really felt it. I really felt the By Lainey • Feb 12, 2019 09:38 am
Photo Assumption Tom Brady’s “victory shave” If you’ve been reading this site a while, you know how I feel about hair luck. Back in 2008, I covered the Super Bowl in Glendale, AZ when the New England Patriots lost to the New York Giants. It’s probably one of the best Super Bowls of all By Lainey • Feb 07, 2019 03:59 pm
Gossip Nostalgia “The moment I wake up…” I don’t have much to say about this. I just want to scream and squeal and jump up and down with you, like all of us all together, looking at this magazine cover. And in the corniest, cheesiest move ever, burst out into a singalong. You know the song. By Lainey • Feb 07, 2019 12:46 pm
Gossip Nostalgia Hollywood Sliding Doors: Beyoncé Rolling Stone published an interview with Michael Caine yesterday that hasn’t yet been widely covered, probably because social media isn’t all that interested in Michael Caine (and many people might not care for his political and social views) but there is an anecdote in there that might pick By Lainey • Jan 24, 2019 11:08 am
Gossip Nostalgia Intro for January 8, 2019 Dear Gossips, As an award season junkie, I’m still not over how wide open this Oscar race is and how the Golden Globes shook up the situation – which probably makes the Hollywood Foreign Press Association very happy. They love that they’re actually a factor this year. Especially since By Lainey • Jan 08, 2019 09:16 am
Music Ashanti doesn’t break the Internet Yesterday, I name-checked some male R&B stars of the early 2000s. The female stars I mentioned are ruling today’s charts (I will never forgive myself for forgetting SOLANGE, who am I?). Given those two pieces of criteria – being a man or having a current stamp on R& By Kathleen • Dec 12, 2018 03:00 pm
Relationship Assumption More love updates: Timothee and Lily One of the main themes of the site yesterday was the romance update: Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse, the Beckhams, Gemma Chan and Dominic Cooper, and also Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn. All fine. Also fine – Timothee Chalamet and Lily-Rose Depp. They were seen out for lunch in New York By Lainey • Dec 12, 2018 11:44 am
Gossip Nostalgia Cameron & JoAnna: Gossip Nostalgia It’ll be four years next month since the release of Cameron Diaz’s last movie, Annie. She and Benji Madden got married a month later, in January 2015, and since then, as I say every time I write about her, she’s been really, really quiet. Earlier this year, By Lainey • Nov 28, 2018 10:44 am
