Maple Leaf Blake of Monaco As expected, Blake Lively accompanied husband to the Cannes premiere of The Captive on Friday night. When I saw her dress, what popped into my head was... Grace Of Monaco, the opening night film, starring Nicole Kidman. Blake was there too. She wore brown-ish wine-colour Gucci. Boring. But can you By Lainey • May 19, 2014 04:44 pm

Maple Leaf Pull down your pants Lower! Justin Bieber went horseback riding yesterday. He had to take his shirt off. Then, when he dismounted, he had to make sure his pants weren’t hitched up too high. High meaning normal, like, hip level. Hip level is too high. The pants must be low enough to see By Lainey • May 13, 2014 04:02 pm

Maple Leaf The perfect son Justin Bieber took his ma to the Clippers game for Mother’s Day yesterday. Apparently they booed him when he moved to kiss her. It didn’t deter him. He gave one of his best performances in a long time. And by best, I mean that he was the least By Lainey • May 12, 2014 10:52 am
Maple Leaf Rachel kissing Patrick Please note, Rachel McAdams is not kissing Ryan Gosling. Please note, they have not gotten back together. I stress this because there was some bullsh-t that was reported a couple of months ago when people thought Gosling and Eva Mendes broke up. They did not. But you keep wishing for By Lainey • May 05, 2014 12:02 pm
Maple Leaf Ellen Page’s FLARE cover The June issue of FLARE will be available on NextIssue on May 3 and newsstands May 12. The cover? Ellen Page! And her abs. She’s expressing herself.

Maple Leaf Intro for April 29, 2014 Dear Gossips, Everything Almost. It’s Jann Arden’s new album, released today. I’ve had the honour of working with Jann the last few weeks and knowing her the last few months on The Social. There never was a more generous, honest, crazy kind, and hilarious artist…friend…person.

Maple Leaf Taylor Kitsch in the hockey box Taylor Kitsch was in Dallas last night to watch the Stars even up their playoff series against the Anaheim Ducks who were playing without Ryan Getzlaf. Kitsch is Canadian. He’s obviously a hockey fan. Why Dallas? My presumption: Friday Night Lights. Filmed in Austin. And he has a home By Lainey • Apr 24, 2014 04:36 pm
Maple Leaf 14 and under This is what I always say about Avril Lavigne: her fan base never grows with her. So she has to keep going back to mining from the 14 and under demo. That’s the only age range that will appreciate –if that’s the word – her new video for the By Lainey • Apr 23, 2014 12:39 pm
Sports Courtside priorities #WeTheNorth Jacek’s right. If I want a team to win, I have to get as far away from them as possible. As expected, Drake was courtside at the Raptors game last night to watch the Northern Uprising even the series against the Brooklyn Nets. Now I’m curious to By Lainey • Apr 23, 2014 11:06 am
Sports Drake The North Game 2, the Toronto Raptors host the Brooklyn Nets tonight at the Air Canada Centre. Why am I in New York? Well, Jacek always says I jinx my teams.

Maple Leaf Intro for April 17, 2014 Dear Gossips, The Cannes Film Festival announced its lineup today featuring some strong Canadian representation from David Cronenberg, Atom Egoyan, and the darling Xavier Dolan.

Maple Leaf Together but not together? Rihanna and Drake were both at the Clippers game last night. She went with her best friend Melissa Ford. He went with his boys. They sat apart. But at one point, Drake went over to see her. And they hugged. And I don’t know how to read this hug. By Lainey • Apr 10, 2014 02:03 pm
Maple Leaf Days In The East I love this thing where songs just get dropped, kind of at random. When one feels like it. Keeps the fans on their toes, right ? This one is called Days In The East and allegedly, it is about the romance between he and Rihanna, now that it’s back. It By Duana • Apr 03, 2014 02:31 pm
Maple Leaf Intro for March 31, 2014 Dear Gossips, “Sara just told me not to forget to thank the JUNOs and CARAS.
