Music Taylor Swift’s historic family weekend Taylor Swift made history this weekend as the first female artist to play three straight shows at MetLife Stadium and for Saturday’s performance, it rained the whole time. Which did not affect her energy, the production, or her lipstick. Never get in the way of Taylor when she’s By Lainey • Jul 23, 2018 09:48 am
Music Miley & Liam are the same Which means they are still together. Just a quick update as a follow-up to yesterday’s post about whether Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth have broken up because he wants babies and she’s not ready, a story originated in OK! Australia, not a good source for good gossip. In By Lainey • Jul 20, 2018 03:58 pm
Music Taylor Swift: Cats I’m trying to remember if I’ve seen Cats. I don’t think I have. If I ever did it was on a school field trip when I was a kid and I used to always fall asleep on field trips because I stayed up too late the night By Lainey • Jul 20, 2018 10:13 am
Music Taylor in studio Taylor Swift, as we know, has been home-basing in New York lately while on tour. She plays three shows at MetLife Stadium this weekend. Taylor had yesterday off and today too. And she was seen last night at a recording studio where she stayed for several hours. There’s really By Lainey • Jul 19, 2018 03:58 pm
Music Lauryn Hill: late for what Lauryn was late. We knew that she was going to be late but I had a bet going with Lainey that she would be “on time” for her which means 30 minutes past her set time. Lauryn Hill was over an hour late for her show in Toronto at a By Kathleen • Jul 19, 2018 03:20 pm
Music Zayn’s new song and new hair Zayn Malik is continuing his “mysterious” album rollout with a new single called “Sour Diesel” and an accompanying music video. Zayn hasn’t given up on the storyline music vids, no matter how many times I’ve advised him against it. Zayn is very committed to action-heavy, mind-boggling visuals that By Kathleen • Jul 19, 2018 02:42 pm
Music Beyoncé on break Beyoncé and Jay-Z wrapped up the first leg of OTR2 in the UK and Europe this past Tuesday. They now have a few days off before taking the tour to North America – Cleveland is the first show on July 25th. Here they are on Tuesday in Nice. I feel like By Lainey • Jul 19, 2018 11:53 am
Music Taylor Swift: the necklace and the new song Let’s recap: Last Friday, Taylor was papped leaving her New York City apartment, like old times, with Gigi Hadid and other members of her squad. It’s been a while since we’ve seen this – there was a sleepover the night before, then they hit up her hometown, and By Lainey • Jul 18, 2018 03:35 pm
Music Intro for July 18, 2018 Dear Gossips, Duana, Kathleen, and I, along with a few other friends, are going to see Ms Lauryn Hill tonight. It’s The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 20th anniversary tour. And she’s playing here in Toronto on the Budweiser Stage, which is an amphitheatre. It’s a perfect summer By Lainey • Jul 18, 2018 09:39 am
Music Summertime with Childish Gambino We’re well into summer. When Justin Timberlake tried to insert himself into the Song of the Summer conversation late in the game with a weak ass submission, I judged him for it. Donald Glover has been just as blatant about vying for the 2018 Heatwave Jam with the two-track By Kathleen • Jul 12, 2018 11:28 am
Jock Smut Drake was there There are still people who manage to avoid knowing sports scores all day and watch back the recording when they get home after work. This fascinates me. Because…HOW? How do you make sure you’re not spoiled? How do you make sure you don’t inadvertently overhear a conversation By Lainey • Jul 10, 2018 02:11 pm
Music Taylor Swift: Interview with the Muse Taylor Swift covers the new issue of Harper’s Bazaar. And the work here is pretty interesting. As we saw with the release of reputation, Taylor changed her media strategy. You might say she borrowed a little from Beyoncé in that she scaled wayyyyyy back on traditional promotion. There were By Lainey • Jul 10, 2018 12:09 pm
Quiveration Essence Fest highlights Queen Latifah doesn’t get the shine that she deserves in hip-hop history. I wrote about this unfortunate fact when she was honoured by VH1 in 2016. I also don’t think Queen Latifah gets the respect she deserves for the feminist work she was putting out before it became By Kathleen • Jul 09, 2018 03:41 pm
Music Janet doesn’t cancel There was speculation that Janet Jackson wouldn’t make it to Essence Fest this year. Her father, Joe Jackson, died on June 27th. No one knew if Janet’s grief would make it to headline one of the biggest music festivals in the world. Apparently, Janet didn’t know either. By Kathleen • Jul 09, 2018 01:14 pm
Music Intro for July 9, 2018 Dear Gossips, I waited until today. You had the weekend…before “I hit you with that ddu-du ddu-du”. SORRY. But I had to. Are you obsessed? Because I am f-cking obsessed. BLACKPINK is my whole life right now. Sasha and I were texting back and forth about this on Friday. By Lainey • Jul 09, 2018 08:44 am
Music The Butterfly Returns! Last night was opening night of Mimi’s new residency, The Butterfly Returns, in Vegas. She’s back. And guess what? She’s skinnier than ever! She is the OG “skinny legend”. I’m surprised she never tried to trademark the word. Mimi, as we’ve seen over the last By Lainey • Jul 06, 2018 04:16 pm
