Girly Throw Downs Protecting Jessica Chastain? Another great example of the “Business of Hollywood” and all the manipulation and strong-arming that characterises the industry.

Oscars 2013 Best Oscar Night: Jessica Chastain Jessica Chastain, I’ve decided, had the best Oscar night of anyone. Think about it. She wears the best dress she’s worn in two or three years, a delicate light copper with her medium copper hair and she looked spectacular. And she KNEW it, because she showed up on By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 04:29 pm
Assy Style Pre-Oscar Gingers Both Nicole Kidman and Jessica Chastain will present at the Oscars.

Oscars 2013 Jessica Chastain has the cutest laugh Here’s Jessica Chastain showing up at work on Broadway last night after being in LA for the Oscar Nominees Luncheon earlier in the week. She’s spent a couple of months now flying back and forth and back and forth. And this weekend it’ll be the same. As By Lainey • Feb 06, 2013 12:55 pm
Oscars 2013 All but Riva Emmanuelle Riva did not attend the Nominees Luncheon yesterday in Beverly Hills. That has something to do, perhaps, with the BAFTAs being on Sunday and it might be too much at her age to go back and forth from LA to London and then back to LA again in a By Lainey • Feb 05, 2013 02:39 pm
Assy Style Jennifer Lawrence & Jessica Chastain improve at the SAGs Because, on fashion, they were both sh-t at the Golden Globes. Click here and here to revisit Jennifer Lawrence’s weird red gown and Jessica Chastain’s terrible, terrible sea foam. For Jessica it was red McQueen. As you know, red is never my favourite, and certainly never on a By Lainey • Jan 28, 2013 08:30 am
Hook Ups Jessica Chastain: No Tom but Jason? Predictably... As reported earlier -- click here for a refresher, the Daily Mail ran a story about Jessica Chastain dating Tom Hiddleston. Gossip Cop cites a source close to Chastain who denies the claim. What did I tell you? I hate when good gossip comes from the Daily f-cking Mail By Lainey • Jan 15, 2013 05:06 pm
Hook Ups Jessica Chastain & Tom Hiddleston...? Here are photos of Jessica Chastain and Tom Hiddleston at a BAFTA event last year. Apparently they’re dating now. This according to the Daily Mail so... I hate when that happens. When good gossip happens and then you find out the source is the Daily Mail. It’s not By Lainey • Jan 15, 2013 10:36 am
Assy Style Globes Worst Dressed (Lainey Edition): Jessica Chastain Was Julianne Hough’s dress worse? Maybe. But Julianne Hough is not a Best Actress contender. The more important the player, the more egregious the fashion crime. That’s the trade-off for being in first place. Or in a tie for first place. Right now it’s Chastain vs Lawrence By Lainey • Jan 14, 2013 06:25 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jessica’s red dress It’s a red dress. It has to be a really special red dress for me to be into it. This...is not really a special red dress. It does nothing for her body, it hangs like a sack from the front, the party at the back is like a By Lainey • Jan 11, 2013 01:10 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jessica’s turquoise earrings Turquoise earrings seem to always print... especially when they pop as brilliantly as they do on someone like Jessica Chastain. Think too of Cameron Diaz at the Met Gala a few years ago. She’ll forever be remembered for it, in a good way. Turquoise earrings don’t work on By Lainey • Jan 02, 2013 08:47 am
Joaquin Phoenix 2012 according to The Actors And The Actor goes to... Well, definitely not Joaquin Phoenix. He did say he didn’t want any awards.

Hollywood Matchmaking Hollywood Matchmaking: Jake & Jessica God Jake Gyllenhaal looked handsome last night at opening night of his off-Broadway play If There Is I Haven’t Found It Yet. I mean, I’m not into the beard, but even that beard can’t take away from how attractive he is. Speaking of that beard - while By Lainey • Sep 21, 2012 02:15 pm
Girly Throw Downs On Lawless & Shia’s beef with the boys Lawless opens next week. I saw it in Cannes. This is when I started summer crushing on Tom Hardy mostly for his relationship with Jessica Chastain in the film. For everyone else Lawless is an old fashioned dick fight, all honour and testosterone. Somehow I came out of there having By Lainey • Aug 23, 2012 11:25 am
Gorgessity James McAvoy lifting Is that a keg? A barrel? I don’t know. Does it matter? He’s lifting it. He’s lovely. He’s gorgeous. He was in New York yesterday shooting The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby with Jessica Chastain. James is not coming to TIFF. Last time he came to TIFF By Lainey • Aug 21, 2012 12:13 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews James McAvoy’s cut-off sleeves James McAvoy and Jessica Chastain continue to work on The Disappearance Of Eleanor Rigby which, to me, based on pap photos only and no other knowledge so, yes, an ignorant assumption, feels a little like One Day.
