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
BFFs Leo’s Thanksgiving without Chris Hemsworth I f-cking love that story so much. If you missed it, I posted about it yesterday – Leonardo DiCaprio snubbing Chris Hemsworth twice, and my theory that, well, Prom Queen Leo didn’t want to be around anyone sexier than he is and used to be. Leo’s basically the Evil By Lainey • Nov 23, 2018 11:47 am
TV Updates Intro for November 21, 2018 Dear Gossips, Tomorrow is American Thanksgiving and I didn’t know this until Vulture pointed it out the other day but Friends apparently has the “most and the best” American Thanksgiving episodes which inspired their “definitive ranking of Friends Thanksgiving episodes”. Some of the humour in Friends does not hold By Lainey • Nov 21, 2018 09:09 am
Douchebags Gossip Nostalgia: Justin and Olivia Last week I posted about Justin Timberlake’s new book, Hindsight, and how he told – and sanitised – the story of his romance with Jessica Biel. They met and there was instant attraction and he invited her to come hang on his tour bus even though he was seeing someone else By Lainey • Nov 08, 2018 01:29 pm
BFFs Matt & Ben together again I mean, it’s not that they were ever apart, but we don’t see them together a lot these days. We see Matt Damon with Chris Hemsworth, often. A Matt and Ben Affleck sighting, however, has become more rare. The Matt + Ben thing, though, well it’s still a By Lainey • Oct 29, 2018 01:02 pm
Gossip Nostalgia Drake’s 2000s Birthday Not many things make me feel old because I’m SO young, as you know. The 20th anniversary of “...Baby One More Time” didn’t make me feel old. The fact that High School Musical: Senior Year came out 10 years ago yesterday didn’t faze me either. As important By Kathleen • Oct 25, 2018 10:38 am

Music Ciara and Missy: reunited Most of the time when I’m writing about Missy Elliott, I’m yelling at MTV to give her a damn Video Vanguard Award already or I’m trying to hype up her latest projects that always seem to go relatively unnoticed. Missy reunited with Ciara last night during her By Kathleen • Oct 10, 2018 11:37 am
Gossip Nostalgia Annie and Amanda in Givenchy What comes to mind when you see Anne Hathaway and Amanda Seyfried together? For me it’s Les Miserables, Fantine and Cosette. And then, where fashion is concerned, well, it’s the Oscars, isn’t it? Anne Hathaway won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her performance as Fantine in By Lainey • Oct 01, 2018 03:07 pm
Weddings Wedding dress inspiration and Gossip Nostalgia Earlier today I posted some exclusive details about Gwyneth Paltrow’s wedding this weekend with a note at the end of the article about what her dress would be like.

TV Updates Jennifer Aniston on the Emmy scene For a long time, we used to see Jennifer Aniston at the Emmys all the time. It was during the Friends era. And, of course, the Friends were all Emmy regulars. Jennifer won the Emmy for Lead Actress in a Comedy in 2002. Time for some Gossip Nostalgia. Here she By Lainey • Sep 17, 2018 10:18 am

Movie Reviews and Previews Winona and Keanu are married This is a click-baity headline. I’m sorry about that. But also I’m not lying. Let’s back up a bit first though.
