Maple Leaf Olympic romantic Hayden Christensen arrived in Vancouver on Saturday with Rachel Bilson. He was spotted out and about among the masses downtown, popped into Future Shop, then hit up the NHL Club Bud party with Rachel at the Commodore. Hayden worked the carpet briefly while she ducked inside. They did not stay By Lainey • Feb 22, 2010 02:41 am
Maple Leaf Those yellow bags For non-Canadians, HBC stands for Hudson’s Bay Company, basically Canada’s signature department store. Been around forever. Like pioneer styles. HBC is also the official Olympic clothing sponsor of Team Canada. And everyone is walking around with the gear. There are line-ups outside the store in Vancouver around the By Lainey • Feb 17, 2010 12:39 pm
Maple Leaf Through the faces of the Cheese Celine Dion: Through the Eyes of the World hits theatres this weekend. Celine and the family attended the premiere in Miami last night. There’s her angel, her miracle, her amazingness, her most wonderful, the blessed, the child of her life and love and existence, the transcendental, the elemental, the By Lainey • Feb 17, 2010 05:29 am
Sports They all try to act and sing Why do they all have to do both? Country B can sing. Who says she can act? The same applies to so many of them. In reverse too. Like Leighton Meester. Acting good. Singing, no. Anyway, here’s Carrie Underwood in Hawaii shooting Soul Surfer this weekend showing off her By Lainey • Feb 15, 2010 10:58 am
Quiveration Ryan on love GO away! Or give a bad interview. Act like a douchebag. Be like Ryan Reynolds. Live inside your own ass, snarl at fans and photographers. Stop being sweet and sex at the same time. Stop being so engaging and intense. Stop being so interesting and interested. Even in a journalist. By Lainey • Feb 02, 2010 05:11 am
Quiveration Look at me like you look at her I cursed Shannon for sending me this video of Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams at Sundance being interviewed for Blue Valentine. You’ll know why as soon as you hit play, the way he focuses on what she says, the way he can’t take his eyes off her, how By Lainey • Feb 01, 2010 09:19 am
Sports Grammy Country B and the Senator He rushed to LA to be by her side after Hockey Day in Canada as the Senators schedule conveniently allowed for Mike Fisher to join his fiancée for Grammy weekend where they made their official Hollywood debut.

Maple Leaf Free hands, no pockets We run on weekends in the endowment lands, a forest in Vancouver with great trails and light hills and the most beautiful trees, and a section that looks like the ewok territory from Return of the Jedi. I used to go alone, with Marcus, but Fiona and head up there By Lainey • Jan 29, 2010 12:35 pm
Quiveration You snuck up on me It’s been a busy week, haven’t had a chance to read Entertainment Weekly as thoroughly as I normally do, but wanted to do some Lost prep before the big premiere next Tuesday (jumpy claps!) and there he is, lasering my loins again, a quiveration sniper, in two photos By Lainey • Jan 29, 2010 03:58 am
Quiveration Now go away for a while Three days in a row of this quiveration agony. It’s too much. Despite my affinity for vodka, I am a rather disciplined person. I will work through anything, I don’t need much sleep, I have a very controlled approach to my life almost to the point of neurosis, By Lainey • Jan 27, 2010 04:01 am
Quiveration Ryan ambush He ambushed me this morning. Totally killed my morning. As noted yesterday, I try to stay away from Ryan Gosling when I need to con-cen-trate. Ryan is not good for productivity. But there he was, like a laser to the loins on the photo agency sites this morning, a quiveration By Lainey • Jan 26, 2010 04:49 am
Maple Leaf Canada For Haiti Canadians were generous. VERY, very generous.

Girlcrushes Best SAG: Marion & Diane Both have the Guillaume Canet connection and they were seated at the Weinstein table. Awkward or no? There was a lot of white at the SAGs.

Maple Leaf Best Globes Spastic: Brendan Fraser I was all over it during our live blog on Sunday night and then totally forgot in the rush of getting out the photos yesterday.

Maple Leaf The greatest gift of all time ever and ever How about some Celine on a Wednesday? You love it. I love it! Celine Dion took her tour around the world last year. She gifted her voice to millions of people and they gifted her back with love and devotion, mesmerised by her bedazzled crotch. What? Yes. The trailer. See By Lainey • Jan 13, 2010 02:53 am
