What Else What Else? Today is Princess Kate’s birthday. She is now 42 years old. In other Kate news, apparently she and William want to move into Royal Lodge but Prince Andrew has been squatting there but now that the Epstein files are out there and everybody is talking once again about removing By Lainey • Jan 09, 2024 04:37 pm
What Else What Else? I admit that my reaction to this outfit on Kate Hudson is irrational – it’s not just that I don’t like it, I despise it, to the point where I might actually be personally offended by it. And it’s not the wearer or even the individual pieces, but By Lainey • Jan 08, 2024 04:01 pm
What Else What Else? Quick programming note: next week, there will not be a newsletter for The Squawk, as there are two awards shows back-to-back to start the week, so we’ll be working through those shows and red carpets here on LG. We will, however, be live-chatting on The Squawk on Sunday for By Sarah • Jan 05, 2024 04:02 pm
What Else What Else? HOLY SH-T, what now, huh? I blanked on this knowledge, like it’s not that I don’t remember, it’s that I actually didn’t know it… which I guess is how TikTokkers feel every time you tell them what happened five years ago, LOL. The Fug Girls are By Lainey • Jan 04, 2024 04:00 pm
What Else What Else? Oh hi, it’s me again talking about Saltburn, because apparently something that happened on social media a lot these last couple of weeks is people tricking their family members into watching it with them and LOL forever. I watched it with Jacek, my husband – and that’s considered a By Lainey • Jan 03, 2024 04:07 pm
What Else What Else? Stephanie Hsu had a great 2023. She went to the Oscars as a performer and a nominee. She starred in the film that won Oscar Best Picture. She also starred in probably my favourite comedy of the year, Joy Ride. I just watched it again over the holidays and it’ By Lainey • Jan 02, 2024 04:02 pm
What Else What Else and Happy Holidays! We have arrived at what we expect to be the last post of the 2023 – unless, of course, some major sh-t goes down over the next ten days in which case, yes, we will be here. If not, we wish you the best of the season and we hope you By Lainey • Dec 22, 2023 04:03 pm
What Else What Else? I adore Emma Chance’s piece on Charles Melton which is basically just chronicling her gradual, line by line, answer by answer, submission to his charms. He is sweet and earnest and appreciative and self-aware and it’s a full takeover, one culture critic at a time! (Pajiba) Staying with By Lainey • Dec 21, 2023 04:16 pm
What Else What Else? Kate Winslet is coming back to HBO – this time playing the chancellor of a European country and it’s satire and politics and probably terribly people being assholes so like if Succession and Veep had a baby?

What Else What Else? As we all well know, Mimi works for about six or seven weeks of the year, starting on November 1. And it’s basically a job she’ll keep forever since she wrote one of the most lasting Christmas songs of all time. The song has made her eternal. If By Lainey • Dec 19, 2023 04:03 pm
What Else What Else? Susan Lucci looks really, really, REALLY good. And constant. Like if I told you this photo of her was from 2003, you would believe me, wouldn’t you? Think about the grind of the daytime soap opera schedule. And she did that for 40+ years. Which is how people remember By Lainey • Dec 18, 2023 04:02 pm
What Else What Else? Prince Harry won one of his phone hacking lawsuits in England, this one against Mirror Group Newspapers, which publishes The Daily Mirror. A judge ruled that Harry be awarded about $180,000 in damages, and that Harry’s personal phone was “targeted” between 2003-2009. Further, the judge said that Piers By Sarah • Dec 15, 2023 04:05 pm
What Else What Else? Busy day yesterday for Timothée Chalamet. He started it in New York and then ended up in Toronto at Yorkdale, a luxury mall, where there’s a big Wonka activation. His outfit is fine but I’m here to talk about his bracelet. I know about this bracelet because I By Lainey • Dec 14, 2023 04:07 pm
What Else What Else? Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made The Hollywood Reporter’s list of the Losers of 2023. And my question about this is media-related. Because THR is owned by the same company as Variety which is Pensky. And Meghan has a good relationship with Variety. She’s granted Variety a couple By Lainey • Dec 13, 2023 04:17 pm
What Else What Else? Joe Manganiello and his new girlfriend, Caitlin O’Connor, are now red carpet official. I’m probably going to get in trouble for saying this but the dress she’s wearing looks like something Sofia Vergara would have worn to the Golden Globes in 2008. (Cele|bitchy) Netflix has finally By Lainey • Dec 12, 2023 04:04 pm
What Else What Else? Has it been a minute since we’ve seen Julia Fox make the sidewalk her runway? Maybe I was away too long but I feel like these are the first shots I’ve seen of her in a while. And she’s stomping down a street in Los Angeles in By Lainey • Dec 11, 2023 04:01 pm
