Music Ariana Grande: Woman of the Year and First Wives Club Did I know? Of course I didn’t know. I had no idea that Ariana Grande would become such a delight. Seriously. It’s super corny to say but she can’t stop being delightful and bringing me so much delight. Which is a f-cked up thing to say because By Lainey • Nov 07, 2018 11:05 am
Break Ups The Island of Zayn We are supposed to call Zayn Malik just “Zayn”, no more Malik. I’m still not used to it. Anyway, Zayn is featured in the new issue of British Vogue and in the excerpt, it’s not clear what this is for. Obviously, presumably, there’s new music coming out, By Lainey • Nov 06, 2018 03:07 pm
Music Shawn Mendes and Khalid’s “Youth” There’s a good chance you come to this site for snark. By now, you know us. You get us. We live for gossip and pop culture analysis, mostly with a side of snark. This post will be severely lacking in that department because after watching the music video for By Kathleen • Nov 06, 2018 11:57 am
Music Intro for November 6, 2018 Dear Gossips, On Saturday night, at precisely 11:08pm, I texted Duana: “I’m obsessed with Ariana Grande. It’s official.” Her response: “I love when you have a turnaround.” It’s true. It’s a turnaround. And, if you’ve been reading this site consistently for a while, you By Lainey • Nov 06, 2018 09:03 am
Music Four Spices go on tour It wasn’t much of a surprise. Which is why it’s not really breaking the internet even though I read some hilarious headlines yesterday that the announcement would probably break the internet. No announcement breaks the internet when the announcement is preceded by an announcement announcing that there will By Lainey • Nov 05, 2018 01:48 pm
Music Janet too If it feels like the only stories we’re hearing about the #MeToo movement recently are about people offensively maligning it or about another “disgraced” man heading back to work, know that its founder, Tarana Burke, is still putting in her work. There are still women who are sharing their By Kathleen • Nov 05, 2018 12:12 pm
Break Ups Ariana Grande thanks her exes Sometimes, I get to speak at my old high school. It makes me feel REAL OLD instead of the SO YOUNG that I’m used to but it’s pretty rewarding because I get to give impressionable youth my favourite piece of non-work related advice: Break. Up. With. Him. It’ By Kathleen • Nov 05, 2018 10:08 am
Music Taylor’s big decisions Taylor Swift is currently on tour in Australia. Which is why she voted early. Yesterday Taylor posted her third election message on Instagram. The first time, she identified her preferred candidates and criticised the candidate she would not be voting for. The second time she PSA’ed about early voting. By Lainey • Oct 31, 2018 04:39 pm
Girly Throw Downs Cardi and Nicki’s fight night At this point, the Cardi B and Nicki Minaj beef is going to go on for as long as 50 Cent and Ja Rule’s. Twenty years from now, which one is going to be the 50, hanging on to the petty for dear life and buying out stadium seats By Kathleen • Oct 30, 2018 10:35 am
Quiveration Shawn Mendes gets lost in Japan We’ve been raving about Shawn Mendes’s song “Lost in Japan” since it dropped in March. The song kicked off a new grown and sexy era of Shawn, transforming him from baby-faced tween dream to bona fide heartthrob for the 21+ set. With every awards show performance and every By Kathleen • Oct 26, 2018 11:56 am
Music Britney turns 20 They are three of the most recognizable opening words in pop music. All it takes is “oh baby, baby,” sung in that classic Britney Spears way – “oh baybin, baybin” – to transport me back to 1998. “… Baby One More Time” is one of those songs that is such a snapshot of By Kathleen • Oct 24, 2018 10:36 am
Music Dolly says not yet I am EXCITED. As I posted yesterday, even though A Star is Born is currently the Oscar frontrunner across most major categories, including Best Picture and Best Actor for Bradley Cooper, they’re not letting them run away with it. Nobody is standing aside, not yet. Why would they? It’ By Lainey • Oct 23, 2018 11:00 am
Music Lady Gaga’s Oscar song “I’ll Never Love Again” has been insulted on this site by Lainey Lui multiple times now. Yesterday, she dared to call it “sh-t". That was the last straw. I refuse to stand by and let the most impressive song on the A Star Is Born soundtrack be disrespected By Kathleen • Oct 23, 2018 10:32 am
Music Zayn’s fingers That sounds dirtier than I intended. Zayn Malik has a new single called “Fingers” and it’s all angst-ridden and rife for interpretation. The song isn’t great but I wish it was because the lyrics are perfect for 2018. This should be a young millennial/Gen Z anthem. ' By Kathleen • Oct 19, 2018 11:31 am
Music Bradley Cooper & Lady Gaga: box office and charts A Star is Born just crossed the $100 million mark at the box office after twelve days. And, as we’ve been saying, it’s one of those movies that has been able to sustain its earnings weekend after weekend as people go back to see it again and again By Lainey • Oct 18, 2018 12:32 pm
Music Jennifer Aniston: low key in New York Jennifer Aniston was photographed leaving the Good Morning America studios on Monday in New York. Since then I keep expecting to see the interview, or some headline about why she was there and what she was promoting. There hasn’t been anything. The next day, Courteney Cox was photographed heading By Lainey • Oct 18, 2018 12:05 pm
