Movie Reviews and Previews Bradley Jackson is back It’s been a quiet year for Bradley Cooper, right? We’ve talked about him here and there in relation to Gigi Hadid and maybe adjacently Taylor Swift but not that often. He gets papped regularly but there’s not much of a story to go with the photos.

Gorgessity Angelina and Zendaya at the Gothams As Sarah just wrote in her post about the actress contenders at the Gotham Awards last night, this is one of the most competitive Best Actress Oscar races we’ve seen in years.

Movie Reviews and Previews Intro for November 29, 2024 Dear Gossips, It’s funny how a narrative can change in two weeks.
