Gorgessity Alicia’s Amazing Coat Alicia Keys was shooting a video in LA the other night believed to be for the MTV EMAs. Now this is a look. First of all, her face, her skin, so pretty with the pale pink lips and not much fuss on the eyes. And I love the long braid By Lainey • Nov 03, 2020 11:29 am
Style A New Wedding Dress for Gwen Shortly after I saw the headline about Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton’s engagement, I emailed with Lainey and admitted that, for at least the last year, I thought they were engaged. There’s so much wedding talk around them, but it’s like we skipped the engagement. But here By Maria • Oct 28, 2020 09:26 am
Style Intro for October 22, 2020 Dear Gossips, Earlier this week Beyoncé announced the release date for “DRIP 2”. The new IVY PARK x Adidas collection is coming on October 30. But we hadn’t seen any gear yet. Well, now we know. As Kathleen wrote on our group text this morning, “Take all my money By Lainey • Oct 22, 2020 08:48 am
Music Intro for October 20, 2020 Dear Gossips, Yesterday BTS released the first concept photo for their upcoming new album, BE (Deluxe Edition), dropping November 20. For the initiated or the newly initiated, hair colour is a big deal for BTS and its ARMY and you’ll note as we’re being introduced to the BE By Lainey • Oct 20, 2020 08:50 am
Style Ben & Ana and Katie & Emilio! And we were just saying that it’s been a while since Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas were seen together. Once again for the people in the back who may have missed this – after months of pandemic dog walks and coffee runs, during which time not a week would By Lainey • Oct 16, 2020 10:16 am
Style Katie Holmes: Romance and Fashion Last week I called Katie Holmes and Emilio Vitolo Jr the New Benana. The early part of the pandemic was dominated by multiple-times-weekly photos of Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas. Ben and Ana then spent several weeks in Ireland while he was working and if they’re By Lainey • Oct 02, 2020 11:10 am
Style Are we ever ready for Rihanna? As mentioned last week, Rihanna’s been in LA the last couple of weeks getting ready for the new Savage X Fenty Vol. 2 presentation. Last year, if you recall, Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty disrupted NY Fashion Week and basically buried Victoria’s Secret. VS had already confirmed by By Lainey • Oct 02, 2020 10:27 am
Style Katie and Emilio: The Routine Continues You may think you’ve seen this before but the shots are new – here are Katie Holmes and Emilio Vitolo Jr walking hand-in-hand in New York yesterday. As they do. Almost every day. And most days the paps are able to find them. It’s now become sort By Lainey • Oct 01, 2020 10:37 am
Style Maisie & Reuben: Couples Dressing and the New Hairstyle? Maisie Williams and her boyfriend Reuben Selby showed up in matching Dior at the Dior show today in Paris. I do love this raincoat on her. And I love that she’s wearing it with no pants. The wellies are rad too. If we’re talking about ponchos with no By Lainey • Sep 29, 2020 03:32 pm
Quiveration BTS’s Happy Harvest Moon As mentioned in yesterday’s open and over the years on this site, it’s a holiday week for those of us of East Asian descent. On Thursday October 1 it’s Tet Trung Thu in Vietnamese culture. The Japanese call it Tsukimi. For Chinese people it’s our Mid- By Lainey • Sep 29, 2020 02:31 pm
Music BLACKPINK. “Lovesick Girls.” Friday. Just three more sleeps – two, really – until the release of THE ALBUM, BLACKPINK’s first full-length album. And the group has been counting down to Friday at 1pm KST/midnight ET with teasers and posters. Two days ago they started posting teaser videos for each individual member to get By Lainey • Sep 29, 2020 12:00 pm
Style Gwen goes shopping There was a story that came out a couple of weeks ago with a misleading headline about Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton. According to Us Weekly, “quarantine has stretched them to the limit”, supposedly because they bought a house and moving sucks, even for celebrities. It sounded like a make- By Lainey • Sep 28, 2020 03:52 pm
Style Oh Look! A Red (Blue) Carpet! There haven’t been a lot of red carpets, or carpets of any colour, over the last six months. And certainly not very many gala style carpets. Last week was the Emmys which would definitely qualify as a gala but, as we saw, it was virtual. Not really much of By Lainey • Sep 25, 2020 11:38 am
Style Zendaya at the Emmys: Two Looks and an Upset! In all of my posts about Zendaya since she was nominated for her first Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama a couple of months ago, I wrote about her coming into this with nothing to lose – because she was not the favourite. She was such a longshot I By Lainey • Sep 21, 2020 01:31 pm
Style Sandra Oh’s Emmy Bomber Sandra Oh is the most-nominated East Asian performer in Emmys history; she has never won an Emmy. Zendaya was the winner in the Lead Drama Actress category this year (more on Zendaya later) and, well, it’s hard to be mad about that and I can’t pretend to By Lainey • Sep 21, 2020 10:49 am
TV Updates Regina King and the Kingdom of Watchmen I’ve rewritten this sentence about nine times. What I want to say is “Watchmen deserved every Emmy it got and more” but that seems to discount the incredible Unbelievable and Unorthodox and others, and look – we just need to accept the fact that there’s too much that’s By Duana • Sep 21, 2020 08:47 am
