Quiveration An angel on the beach Let’s begin the day with beauty. You know when I wrote yesterday about Michael McIntyre’s reaction to Brandon Flowers’s face? Click here for a refresher.

Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Pratt’s GQ face Leading up to Jurassic World, Chris Pratt covers the June issue of GQ, and once again, they have made him look like Not Chris Pratt.

Style Emily Blunt’s Cannes debut Emily Blunt has been to Cannes for a few parties here and there. But I don’t recall ever seeing her at the Palais, representing her own film.

Movie Reviews and Previews Check out Shark Man as Computer Jesus The first trailer for the Steve Jobs biopic written by Aaron Sorkin, creatively titled Steve Jobs, is here and it does not show much beyond Michael Fassbender in a black turtleneck and glasses as Jobs.

Media Manipulation Natalie Never is back Back in 2011, when she was campaigning for an Oscar, I dubbed Natalie Portman “Natalie Never” because her combination belly-cuppy pregnancy and aggressive trophy hunting turned me off so hard I couldn’t deal with her at all. A proto-I Can’t, if you will. Since then, though, By Sarah • May 15, 2015 02:16 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Emma’s Cannes debut Woody Allen’s Irrational Man photo call and presser in Cannes today. And Emma Stone’s Cannes first time. Maybe that’s why Emma went with a cocktail dress? I mean it’s not a gown. But I feel like it’s a dress you might see at a party. By Lainey • May 15, 2015 01:53 pm

Marcus and Friends (dogs) Johnny Depp’s dog violation I remember hearing a story last year of a woman who flew to Australia with an orange and it turned into a major drama when she got there. They’re serious over there about contamination and bio-transfers. So if you have pets, and you’re travelling there with them, By Lainey • May 14, 2015 04:26 pm
Bad Style Charlize & Sean in Cannes Sean Penn joined Charlize Theron at the Palais in Cannes for Mad Max: Fury Road today. Is this supposed to be our substitute for Brange Cannes?
