Assy Style Gwyneth & Chris at the Grammys It seems like these two are never not together. Gwyneth Paltrow presented. Chris Martin performed. And you can see him I think in the background of one of these shots of her. G, obviously, was there for her “beautiful friend” Beyonce. That’s no accident either. While there were complaints By Lainey • Feb 09, 2015 12:37 pm
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Gwen Stefani: the almost best That black jumpsuit on the carpet? Nothing is touching that. Obsessed. The red dress for the performance? You know, where she and Adam Levine had no chemistry, like Fifty Shades Of Grey? With that stupid nasty sh-t at the hip? PISS. It was piss. By Lainey • Feb 09, 2015 12:12 pm
Style Kristen Wiig’s best performance I thought by now that I would be tired of it. Tired of Sia’s substitutes. But it actually keeps getting better. And now I wonder how it could possibly be better than Kristen Wiig’s performance last night. It’s her best acting of all time, like, ever. She By Lainey • Feb 09, 2015 11:18 am

Sit DOWN Sit DOWN, Nicole Kidman Nicole Kidman’s Thierry Mugler last night was one of the carpet’s best. But f-ck her, we’re not giving her the satisfaction. Because did you watch her interview with Ryan Seacrest? He asks her the question. He asks her about the dress. She pauses. And then, “I don’ By Lainey • Feb 09, 2015 09:47 am
Music Annie Lennox destroyed the Grammys It’s a good song…although I find it repetitive which is probably why it needed her. Because did she ever take the Church to another level, holy F-CK, Annie Lennox. Holy F-CK. Who could possibly follow that? Is that why I’m listening to No More I Love Yous By Lainey • Feb 09, 2015 09:11 am
Amazingness “No Kanye” After all these years, do you feel differently now about what Kanye West did to Taylor Swift at the VMAs? “Imma let you finish”? It’s still a dick move, yes.

Grammy Awards 2015 Madonna’s Grammys squatting To me, Madonna looked stiff last night at the Grammys. There was no fluidity in her movements. My friend Iain, the most ardent Madonna fan I know, even he called her performance “cautious”, wishing she would just let go. That’s about as critical as it gets from Iain on By Lainey • Feb 09, 2015 07:21 am
