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? (The Mary Sue) The fight I’ve been picking with you all this By Lainey • Dec 20, 2023 04:11 pm
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
What Else What Else? The Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire press tour has begun. The title is a lot, but the cast is very good-looking, and it’s always good to see Sofia Boutella on a red carpet. (Go Fug Yourself) The only gift guide I am interested in, shopping for By Sarah • Dec 08, 2023 04:01 pm
What Else What Else? Queen Latifah, in her Queen pose, with her Kennedy Center medal, looking so beautiful in a metallic dress. That’s it. That should be enough for you to leave here and go see her…but come back too! (Go Fug Yourself) If you’re looking for gift ideas, consider Black-owned By Lainey • Dec 07, 2023 04:00 pm
What Else What Else? Feud Season 2 is coming next year and you might as well inject this sh-t into my veins because I am all about Truman Capote and his swans and why they fell out and allllll the mess and intrigue that happened. This story has everything: friends, frenemies, balls, backstabbing, and By Lainey • Dec 06, 2023 04:01 pm
What Else What Else? Olivia Rodrigo’s style or … lack of style?... is fascinating to me. She’s a popstar! But when she shows up on red carpets and award shows, I never clock her fashion. I can barely remember any of her outfits. And I definitely don’t understand this outfit?! This is By Lainey • Dec 05, 2023 04:01 pm
What Else What Else? It was SO good to see Saoirse Ronan at the Academy Museum Gala and this Louis Vuitton dress on her is excellent. I love how the top looks like a pleated napkin. I love that it’s offset, like it’s about to fall off. I love that she chose By Lainey • Dec 04, 2023 04:15 pm
What Else What Else? Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor is ready for her latest Oscar run! (Go Fug Yourself) The Prince and Princess of Wales attended the Royal Variety show last night, and despite being named as one of the “royal racists” in Omid Scobie’s Endgame, Princess Kate got a standing ovation. But as pointed out, By Sarah • Dec 01, 2023 04:06 pm
