Oscars 2018 Badass Emma Watson’s Bad Grammar Thank God for Vanity Fair and the other parties, which have changed from being exclusive events where nominees sometimes changed clothes and avoided the ‘novelty invite’ people, to still-exclusive events that, it is acknowledged, might be more fun than the main event and give stars a chance to shake things By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 11:05 am
Oscars 2018 King Chadwick Chadwick. Holy sh-t. Boseman. I can’t get over Chadwick’s entire look. Every few minutes, I just say “Chadwick” out loud to no one in particular. Duana and Lainey have started to ignore me. HOLY SH-T, CHADWICK. We were waiting for Chadwick Boseman. Every time a limo car door By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 10:42 am
Oscars 2018 Miley & Liam six years later Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth made two Oscar stops last night – the Elton John annual Oscar party and the Vanity Fair party. Which they’ve not done since 2012. And this is what they looked like back then: It’s very similar, isn’t it? Here’s a comparison shot By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 10:31 am
Oscars 2018 When Frances McDormand Says Jump… Remember Frances McDormand being surprised at her win? Or if not surprised (because she’s won every award all season and actively asked people to stop voting for her), then kind of flustered? Did you wonder why? Apparently because if she had to go through the irritation of actually winning By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 10:05 am
Oscars 2018 Viola Davis wows in pink Have I mentioned that I worked the Oscars this year yet? I’m super chill about it so I don’t think I have. Well, I was there and in our production truck, when Viola Davis showed up, there were “wows” out loud from some of the men in the By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 09:15 am
Style Angela Bassett’s Oscar sequins What. The. F-CK, Angela Bassett. And please don’t misunderstand. I’m not dragging her. Not at all. Why would I dare? Who would dare? This is Angela Bassett. So the WTF is not about Angela Bassett in any way sucking. It is about how Angela Bassett does not suck By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 08:57 am
Oscars 2018 Margot Robbie Oscar disappointment I’m not talking about Margot Robbie losing the Oscar to Frances McDormand. We knew that was going to happen. I’m talking about her dress. This weekend, Lainey wrote that Margot’s bold look at the Spirit Awards must have meant that she was gearing up to “serve it By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 08:12 am
Oscars 2018 Sandra Bullock owns the Oscars Let’s get one thing out of the way – if you are part of a group of Practical Magic superfans who have been given a private gift of Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman in the same frame together, I’m very happy for you and I promise to watch the By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 08:03 am
Oscars 2018 Mary J. Blige: Oscars Best Performance I’m mad about Mudbound. I just decided how mad I’m going to be about Mudbound and that’s very. Very mad. There wasn’t much else to get fired up over this year so I’m going to pour all of my frustrations over missed nominations and people By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 07:47 am
Oscars 2018 Zendaya’s two Oscar dresses The more I look at it, the more I like Zendaya’s chocolate brown dress at the Oscars proper. Now that I’ve seen her Vanity Fair dress, I actually love it – the brown one, I mean. Here’s her Vanity Fair dress. I’m only giving you one shot By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 07:22 am
Oscars 2018 We Owe Greta Gerwig You might think we embellish the ‘fighting over who to write about on Oscar night’ bit but it really is a battle bordering on a brawl. We’re snide and opinionated and call ‘mine!’ like four year olds as soon as the name we want comes up. When we got By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 07:04 am
Oscars 2018 Armie Hammer: hot dogs and the flu Armie Hammer was supposed to be ready for the weekend. He and the Call Me By Your Name team were supposed to be at the Spirit Awards together, hit up a few pre-Oscar parties, and then show up to the Oscars proper as a posse. Armie had a whole beauty By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 06:35 am
Oscars 2018 Constance Wu’s Oscar hair Constance Wu at the Vanity Fair Oscar party. As far as I know, this is the first time she’s attended the Vanity Fair Oscar party. Because her profile is growing. And it will only continue to grow as we approach the release of Crazy Rich Asians in August. If By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 06:02 am
Oscars 2018 Allison Janney’s party weekend No surprise here, right? Allison Janney won everything leading up the Oscars. What I liked about Allison’s acceptance speech last night was that she wasn’t there to pretend that she hadn’t won everything already and would probably win the biggest prize. Not to say that she was By Lainey • Mar 05, 2018 05:25 am
Oscars 2018 Elisabeth Moss, the Oscars, and pee I assumed I would walk away from my first weekend at the Oscars with some celebrity run-in anecdotes. I figured I would be riding elevators with Lin-Manuel Miranda (and Duana, she saw him first) or casually grabbing breakfast beside Zendaya and Tom Holland. That’s just what happens at the By Kathleen • Mar 05, 2018 05:08 am
Oscars 2018 Mindy & BJ: Vanity Fair Teasing? The following is not what’s foremost in my mind about the night. It’s not what I got the most mail about. But it is what I got the most urgent, searching mail about. My friend Lauren easily, overtly loves the Oscars more than anyone I know. But even By Duana • Mar 05, 2018 04:53 am
