BFFs Brad and his “lover” Leo According to Brad Pitt, who was probably not being serious, Leonardo DiCaprio calls him “lover”: “Lover. He calls me Lover,” said Pitt. “It’s a bit confusing, but I roll with it.” These days, he’s a joke a minute, this guy. That said, he referred to Leo as “LDC” By Lainey • Jan 28, 2020 11:28 am
Relationship Assumption Brad and Jen at the after-party This was one of the major storylines heading into the Globes once the nominations were announced: Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt both single (put a pin in that) and back at the Globes.

Award Season Campaigning Brad Pitt’s pre-birthday Q&A Today is Brad Pitt’s birthday. It’s also Katie Holmes’s birthday and I’ve been trying to Gossip Genie these two for months now.

Cringe Leo dances 2019 Are we celebrating five year milestones today? In the open, I marked the fifth anniversary of Beyoncé attending Taylor Swift’s birthday party.

Music Taylor Swift’s long Lover Taylor Swift’s seventh album, Lover, was released last night, a few hours after the release of the video for the song “Lover”. “Lover” is, presumably, about Joe Alwyn and there’s been all kinds of speculation, because of the lyrics, whether or not she and Joe might be married By Lainey • Aug 23, 2019 12:40 pm
Models Leo, Sean, and their bonafides on a boat Leonardo DiCaprio and his bonafide, Camila Morrone, have been on holiday on a yacht in Sardinia.

Movie Reviews and Previews Brad Pitt in Mexico Brad Pitt was in Mexico yesterday to promote Once Upon a Time …in Hollywood. He went for the camel monochrome look. At first, with that hat on, I thought in thumbnail that he was Don Johnson. Most of you are probably too young to remember the Miami Vice vibe. Anyway, By Lainey • Aug 13, 2019 10:47 am

Quiveration Brad Pitt never looks awkward Quentin Tarantino and the cast of Once Upon a Time …in Hollywood were in London last night for the UK premiere. The film opened strong this weekend, QT’s best ever box office. That f-cking ellipsis though. I wrote about this a few weeks ago, about the inconsistency in the By Lainey • Jul 31, 2019 10:26 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Quentin Tarantino’s wistful Hollywood fairytale You could never accuse Quentin Tarantino of being a brief storyteller, but even by his loquacious cinematic standards, Once Upon a Time in… Hollywood is shambolic, a shaggy, unkempt story that wanders to and fro, sliding back and forth in time with extended flashbacks and multiple shows-within-a-show. The pacing is By Sarah • Jul 25, 2019 01:24 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews The Passing Through Interview Watching big stars avoid traditional press is becoming its own form of entertainment. Beyoncé comes to mind, obviously, but Angelina Jolie doesn’t much do the talk show circuit either. And she too has written her own essays for fashion magazines. Angelina junketed for First They Killed My Father though By Lainey • Jul 23, 2019 12:10 pm
Relationship Assumption Leo and Camila holding hands Leonardo DiCaprio and Camila Morrone went out for dinner in LA last night and were photographed holding hands.

Movie Reviews and Previews Brad goofs I keep thinking Once Upon a Time in…Hollywood doesn’t open until August. It actually opens in two weeks, on July 26. Doesn’t have much competition that same week but, of course, it’ll be contending with The Lion King from the week before. A more specific audience, By Lainey • Jul 12, 2019 09:33 am
