Movie Reviews and Previews Leo gains Steve Jobs, starring Michael Fassbender, is not doing well at the box office. Variety published a piece this week analysing its underwhelming performance and one of the reasons might be that Michael Fassbender, while excellent in the role, doesn’t have the star power to draw the kind of audience By Lainey • Oct 28, 2015 06:13 pm
Oscars 2015 John Travolta: Oscar Everything I just want you to imagine the Oscars last night - that long ass show and NPH’s lame ass jokes, and f-cking Adam Levine’s cruelly intolerable voice, and everything that took forever but went nowhere – without John Travolta. Imagine the Oscars without that collar chain around his neck. By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 04:44 pm
Style Scarlett Johansson: Best Dressed (Lainey) Duana claimed Emma. But it was close for me. Since I almost always go Emma though, because Emma always does Emma, I went in a different direction. My direction, in case you haven’t noticed, is not usually body con. But OMG Scarjo last night… And in person it was By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 04:26 pm
Style Emma Stone: Best Dressed (Duana) You know, you never want to be boring. Predictable. Safe. And so it becomes a bit of a lame proposition to choose Emma Stone for Best Dressed, because of course she’s going to be Best Dressed. Even her misses are so much more interesting than everyone else’s wins. By Duana • Feb 23, 2015 04:03 pm
Assy Style Gwyneth Paltrow: Oscars Worst Dressed (Lainey) Again! She sucked at the Grammys. She sucked at the Globes. She sucked….at the Oscars?!? And it’s not like I don’t love it when G goes rogue at the Oscars. I will always defend the time she went rogue in Alexander McQueen all those years ago. I’ By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 03:40 pm
Oscars 2015 Jennifer Aniston: Oscars Worst Dressed (Duana) What are you doing? What are you thinking? Jennifer Aniston has a hot body. Let’s just accept that it’s true and always going to be true. We’re going to write think-pieces when she turns 50 (in 4 years!) and 54 and 58 talking about how beautiful she By Duana • Feb 23, 2015 03:20 pm
Style David Oyelowo: the Best Dressed Actor Marsala, the colour of the year. Now this is a sharp suit. With the waistcoat too. Proper. It’s Dolce & Gabbana. And so on point for how to show up at your first Oscars with a seat in front of Oprah Winfrey. They gave him a lot of camera By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 02:50 pm
Oscars 2015 Marion Cotillard: Oscars Best Back You have to appreciate the back here. Like I don't want to fight you. I want to convince you. I want you to see the brilliance of this dress. How it gives you what you want in the front, the body con, the contour, while giving me what By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 02:27 pm
Oscars 2015 My Obsession at the Oscars Ok not quite. And it definitely won't be next year for Fifty Shades Of Grey. But she's getting there. The negativity about the movie isn't about the direction. In fact, she's coming out looking pretty good. I've heard more and By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 02:05 pm
Oscars 2015 Common & John Legend: Oscar's Best Dudes (Duana) Or, as they were inexplicably referred to during the call-up, Lonnie Lynn and John Stephens. Maybe your real name has to be on your Oscar? I mean, what do you say? They had already won the night, and the award, with the performance of Glory which gets more intense and By Duana • Feb 23, 2015 01:21 pm
Oscars 2015 Reese Witherspoon: The Oscar Crusader Evidently Reese Witherspoon is this year's Oscar Kristen Bell. You remember when she and Dax Shepard took it upon themselves to go anti-pap for children's photos? There was a petition that was circulated. But at the same time their peers are selling baby photos to magazines. By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 01:07 pm
Oscars 2015 Michael Keaton, Sean Penn, and Alejandro González Iñárritu: Oscar boys being boys Everything about the Best Picture win for Birdman was a little odd. I’m not one of those people who hated the film – in fact I thought it was great. But the whole weird round-robin guyfest on the acceptance stage gave me a bit of a stomach ache. First of By Duana • Feb 23, 2015 12:47 pm
Oscars 2015 Mindy Kaling: Best Oscar-defining Moment Most of the Oscar defining moments I can think of that are not Oscar wins are fashion related. Nicole Kidman became a revelation in the green Dior. Michelle Williams made an announcement in the yellow Vera Wang. Last night at the Vanity Fair party, Mindy Kaling made an announcement. She By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 12:22 pm
Oscars 2015 Lupita & Jared: the Oscar sequel There's a shot of Lupita Nyong'o and Jared Leto from last night taken from behind them. And they were hanging out at the Vanity Party too. And coming off their SAG heat a few weeks ago, that's what we want to see, right? Possibilities? By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 12:03 pm
Oscars 2015 Julianne Moore: Oscars Most Beloved Winner A couple of friends individually told me this weekend that they thought the Oscars were lacking a certain excitement this year (they also told me collectively that it was too warm for the outfit I was wearing so what do they know). I wondered whether it was because there wasn’ By Duana • Feb 23, 2015 11:17 am
Oscars 2015 McConaughey’s Oscar Marion Matthew McConaughey was the only returning acting winner who did not walk the carpet at the Oscars last night. So I totally forgot about it. And was actually surprised to see him when he did come out to present Best Actress. Am trying to decide why they scheduled it that By Lainey • Feb 23, 2015 11:08 am
