Maple Leaf Ryan & Blake for Canada at the White House President Obama and Michelle Obama hosted a state dinner last night in honour of Canada’s new Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Sophie Gregoire-Trudeau.

Maple Leaf Intro for March 1, 2016 Dear Gossips, Thanks for all your emails and tweets and messages in response to our Oscar posts yesterday. Duana and I got yelled at a lot.

Maple Leaf Justin Bieber loves to win Justin Bieber performed on a great looking stage last night. Adele loved it. She mentioned him, I think twice, during one of her many acceptance speeches.

Maple Leaf Rihanna & Drake at the BRITs There was a Page Six report earlier this week speculating that the real reason Rihanna bailed on the Grammys is because she saw the quality of the other performances and decided hers was sh-t and she was too embarrassed. Another Page Six source insists she really did have bronchitis. Sure. By Lainey • Feb 25, 2016 09:41 am
Maple Leaf Intro for February 24, 2016 Dear Gossips, Celine Dion performed for the first time in Vegas last night since the passing of her husband, René Angélil, and she dedicated the show, and the rest of her life and career, really, to his memory.

TV Updates Maya and Marty Live! Over the weekend I emailed Lainey all excited about Maya Rudolph and Martin Short’s new variety show. Does this make me deeply uncool?

Hook Ups #ChavrilisUnbroken While Canada was celebrating hosting its first ever NBA All-Star Weekend last night, our country’s first couple showed up to Clive Davis’s pre-Grammy party together, like, together.

Maple Leaf Ryan Reynolds’s (singing) game Deadpool opens on Friday. So does Zoolander 2. Promotion has been heavy on both movies. Ryan Reynolds, in particular, has been hustling like we’ve never seen him hustle. And without being gross about it.
