What Else for June 29, 2018

We’ve been talking about BDE, Big Dick Energy, all week. And Patricia Clarkson has something to say about Justin Timberlake’s dick. Which actually proves the BDE definition. That BDE is not defined by size. Size is not enough. Which is why, while JT’s D might be a plus, his Energy is definitely a mi...

Smutty Social Media, June 29, 2018

Scott Eastwood has moved to Texas because California is too crowded. Interesting. If you look at Scott Eastwood, doesn’t he seem like the type of guy who LOVES LA, especially considering his pedigree? Or am I judging a book by its cover (or in this case, by that stupid face he makes).    ...

Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas attend family events together in India

No relationship right now is as accelerated as Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson’s. But I feel like moving fast is the popular speed these days. Is it because the world is a sh-thole and we feel like we’re running out of time? Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas adopted a puppy together after dating just over...

Drake confirms he has a son in new album Scorpion

The biggest headline coming out of the release of Drake’s Scorpion is that he confirms that he does indeed have a child. His son is not named. The mother of his child is not named. But we already know those details from Pusha T. At no point is Drake able to call Pusha a liar. Pusha T’s gossip was so...

Drake's Scorpion album review

I HATE WHEN DRAKE RAPS DRAKE SINGS TOO MUCH DRAKE IS A POP ARTIST DRAKE DOESN’T EVEN WRITE HIS OWN SONGS DRAKE TOOK AN L DRAKE DIDN’T EVEN START FROM THE BOTTOM DRAKE IS FINISHED I LIKE DRAKE’S OLDER STUFF DRAKE MAKES MUSIC FOR GIRLS  DRAKE THINKS HE’S JAMAICAN  DRAKE IS AN ACTOR DRAKE CH...

Benicio Del Toro in Sicario: Day of the Soldado movie review

As I write this review, there has been another mass shooting in America. More people are dead. More people are injured. More suffering, more anger, more inaction, more misery. We can’t go a f*cking day without some fresh hell bursting forth and poisoning the well. At this point, we’re chest-deep in ...

Pulitzer Prize winner Kendrick Lamar covers Vanity Fair

Pulitzer Prize winner Kendrick Lamar Duckworth is on the cover of the August issue of Vanity Fair. We are still in the early days of new editor-in-chief Radhika Jones’s tenure. You may remember Radhika from her fox-print tights and this episode of Show Your Work. In her editor’s letter, Radhika gush...

Intro for June 29, 2018

Dear Gossips,  Canada Day is on Sunday so it’s a long weekend here in Canada which means we will be dark on Monday and back to regular gossip schedule on Tuesday. Long weekend or not, here are some weekend recommendations other than Drake – we’ll get to Drake, eventually, today.  As mentioned ...

I have been hoping for a story about Lohan Beach House in Mykonos and writer Gabrielle Bluestone has delivered with You Can’t Hurt Lindsay Lohan Now. During the interview, Lindsay demonstrates many of her usual traits (she has a cold, her assistant bungled the interview time, she namedrops celebriti...

Jared Leto to star as Morbius the Living Vampire in Spider-Man spin-off

Unsatisfied with being the Third Best Joker, actor and human costume shop Jared Leto will now star as Morbius the Living Vampire in a Spider-Man spin-off at Sony. This movie will exist in the same universe as Tom Hardy’s Venom, both of which have not been admitted into the Marvel Cinematic Universe ...

Is Victoria Beckham trolling us on Instagram with anniversary post?

Yesterday in Smutty Social Media Maria linked to Victoria Beckham’s Instagram video – she was trying out dresses and getting ready for the “anniversary”. Most of us assumed the “anniversary” was the wedding anniversary as she and David will celebrate their 19th anniversary on July 4th, next Wednesda...

Angelina Jolie in London for 200th anniversary of the Most Distinguished Order of St Michael and St George

I have often said that the universe must be a gossip. And a shady one. Because the timing of celebrity itself is so f-cking gossipy, it’s amazing.  Yesterday we got a first look at Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. While Brad’s working on yet another possibly probl...

Scarlett Johansson says she didn't audition to date Tom Cruise

We need some backstory before we can get into this. In 2012, after Katie Holmes left Tom Cruise, Vanity Fair published a story, by Maureen Orth, about Tom’s “secret wife auditioning process” before he and Katie started dating. It was revealed that actress Nazanin Boniadi was chosen by the Church of ...

Nicholas Hoult, Glen Powell, and Miles Teller in the running to play Goose’s son in Top Gun 2

As Sarah posted a couple of weeks ago, Tom Cruise confirmed that production is now underway on the Top Gun sequel and now THR is reporting that they’ve narrowed it down to Nicholas Hoult, Glen Powell, and Miles Teller to play Goose’s son. You’ll recall, Goose’s son was in a few scenes in the origina...

Intro for June 28, 2018

Dear Gossips,  There’s a show called Lookalikes that airs in the UK, a reality comedy series about people who think they look like certain celebrities. The English are very good at old timey tight assy manners AND trash TV. Anyway a few of the Lookalikes cast members (who “look like” Gordon Ramsa...

Smutty Social Media, June 27, 2018

Like Lainey, I’m all about BDE right now. And you know who thinks he has BDE? Justin Theroux. Which is interesting because as we know from The Leftovers sweatpants scene, he could legitimately have a BD. But that doesn’t he mean he has the energy.    A post shared by @justintheroux o...

Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio in first look photo from Once Upon A Time In Hollywood

Lainey opened the site today by talking about the Big Dick Energy that is taking over social media and prompting all of us to wonder who in our friend group has BDE. (I’m going to posit that among the LG crew, Duana has the most BDE.) What I want to know, though, is what is the opposite of Big Dick ...

Julia Roberts joins Instagram

Julia Roberts joined Instagram yesterday. It’s a verified account so it appears to be legit. So far she’s not following anyone and commenting is disabled. This is her first post:   A post shared by Julia Roberts (@juliaroberts) on Jun 26, 2018 at 12:57pm PDT Basically as gen...

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will not reveal where they spent their honeymoon

We’ll next see Harry and Meghan on July 5th at the Your Commonwealth Youth Challenge reception. After that ...

Serena Williams covers InStyle's first Badass Women issue

The term “having it all” is generally loathed now, right? We’ve accepted that expecting women to be the perfect mother, wife, friend, employee, boss, sister, aunt, daughter and super human all at the same time is antiquated and unfair, right? Thanks in large part to essays like this one and this the...

Russell Crowe to play Roger Ailes in Showtime series based on book The Loudest Voice in the Room

In a shocking piece of out-of-the-box casting, famously temperamental actor Russell Crowe has been cast as Roger Ailes, the late, disgraced Fox News executive who was booted from his perch atop Dipsh*t Mountain after a series of sexual harassment allegations. It’s a revelatory move as no one could e...

Intro for June 27, 2018

Dear Gossips,  Big Dick Energy.  What else am I talking about in this space today? BDE is the discussion that we’re all having (when we’re not talking about how the world is a goddamn mess). Allison P Davis wrote about BDE for The Cut, complete with a BDE analysis of all the Chrises (sorry Kat...

Smutty Social Media, June 26, 2018

I’m very impressed by push-ups, mainly because I have no upper body strength. If you can do three push-ups I am very impressed. Scott Eastwood is committed to his workout, wherever he is, which is great. But if I saw him doing push-ups on the ferry I would eye roll so hard.   A post ...

Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande celebrate her 25th birthday in New York

Today is Ariana Grande’s 25th birthday. It’s a milestone birthday, a non-random birthday year. The f-cker of it is I can’t remember what I did on my 25th birthday. Which probably means it wasn’t special. WHYYYYY did I not have a special 25? I, like Ariana, was born on the 26th. Was I focusing more o...

Camila Cabello holds hands with boyfriend Matthew Hussey in Barcelona

Celebrity couples can be random. See: Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson, Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra, Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden. That last one still kills me. There are certain couples that will always cause me to stop scrolling and say “huh?” every time I see them. Camila Cabello and Matthew H...

Playing Photo Assumption with new picture of David and Victoria Beckham on Instagram

How would we be looking at this shot if we weren’t on Week 3 of Beckham Worry? That’s what I love about Photo Assumption. Our eyes are not objective. They’re influenced by circumstance. So here’s what we’re looking at.  Victoria Beckham is partnering with Sotheby’s this week at her flagship store...

Thomas Markle tells TMZ he thinks Royal Family has him in the "penalty box"

The Thomas Markle Zone has once again connected with TMZ to bring us some rogue relative f-cksh-t. Last week, just after she spent her first away day with the Queen and just before Meghan Markle was scheduled to attend her very first Royal Ascot, she and Prince Harry were blindsided by her father’s ...

Sam Smith and Brandon Flynn spending PRIDE apart means nothing

Sam Smith and Brandon Flynn spent Pride weekend apart. PEOPLE is reporting that Sam was in Boston “having a good time” and dancing all night at a club called Candibar on Sunday while Brandon was at the Pride parade in New York with his 13 Reasons Why co-stars. When Lainey e-mailed me about this s...

Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk vacation in Capri while Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson take the dog out in LA

Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk spent the weekend on holiday with Valentino and Giancarlo Giammetti on their yacht in Capri. Here’s what brunch looks like when you’re guests of Valentino and Giancarlo – or Garavani and Giammetti, GG, as monogrammed on their plates:   A post shared b...

Kit Harington and Rose Leslie get married in Scotland

Kit Harington married Rose Leslie in Scotland on Saturday. The ceremony happened at Rayne Church and, as noted on Friday, they returned to Wardhill Castle for the reception, a castle that has been in Rose’s family for 900 years. This is where Rose grew up. Is it hard to heat a castle? Let me know if...

Ryan Coogler saves 2018 BET Awards while accepting award for Black Panther with Michael B Jordan

Jamie Foxx did a lot of things wrong last night but his worst offence was a Black Panther parody skit called “Wanda in Wakanda” featuring Michael Blackson. After the atrocity that is this sketch, the only Michael I recognize is Bae Jordan. Jamie Foxx plays Wanda, a warrior enlisted to “save the v...

Host Jamie Foxx responsible for awkward Donald Glover moment at the 2018 BET Awards

It wasn’t his fault. Donald Glover was involved in one of the most awkward moments of the BET Awards last night but the person responsible for the discomfort was unequivocally Jamie Foxx.  If Jamie had a script, he wasn’t reading it. A few times throughout the night, he said out loud that he wasn...

Janelle Monae proudly represents the LGBTQ community at the BET Awards

Janelle Monae’s Dirty Computer is one of the best albums of 2018. Janelle Monae has become one of the most influential artists of the year not only because of the strength of her work but also because she came out as a queer woman in Rolling Stone in April. She started an international conversation ...

Hannah Gadsby’s Nanette movie review

Jokes, Australian comedian Hannah Gadsby tells us, are a two-part structure: set-up and punchline. And the problem with jokes, she goes on, is that they have no resolution. In her new comedy special, Nanette, Gadsby tells us how she “sealed off” her coming-out story at its “trauma point” by turning ...

Intro for June 25, 2018

Dear Gossips,  Hannah Gadsby’s name has been coming up in my feeds for a few weeks now. Then Sarah texted me this weekend, OH MY GOD YOU HAVE TO WATCH NANETTE ON NETFLIX. The timing was perfect. I watched it yesterday, Pride Sunday. Last week, it was Beyoncé taking over revered artistic spaces th...

Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin hold hands in New York

Today’s celebrity couples update continues with Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin. After a quick trip to Miami to hang out with DJ Khaled were back in NY yesterday. She was seen on a modelling job. They also went out for lunch and left holding hands. At some point during the day JB was seen with a ri...

Peter Dinklage arrives in Scotland for Kit Harington and Rose Leslie's wedding

This definitely counts as a celebrity romance update. And sort of a royal update? Jon Snow aka Kit Harington is King in the North and, with his now revealed birthright, has a claim to the Iron Throne. He’s marrying Rose Leslie tomorrow in Scotland. At a castle. Her family has owned the castle for 90...

Zoe Kravitz and Karl Glusman go to the movies in LA

This day has ended up being just one giant relationship update on the blog after starting off with the Jurassic review. How can we jam Jurassic into the romance narrative? Chris Pratt is now dating Katherine Schwarzenegger, does that count?  Anyway, we’re now catching up with another couple, a co...

Emma Watson and Chord Overstreet are back together

It was reported three weeks ago that Emma Watson and Chord Overstreet had broken up.  They unfollowed each other on Instagram and, as we know, as silly as it seems, that’s a real thing now. Instagram following and unfollowing is a better indicator of good gossip than Radar Online and In Touch/Star M...

A Ben Affleck and Lindsay Shookus relationship status update

Ben Affleck and Lindsay Shookus have been seen together in LA a few times this week. Yesterday they were photographed at his office. Also yesterday ET gave us an update about their relationship. I’m curious about the motivation for this.  A source tells ET that the 45-year-old actor and the Satur...

Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan remain friendly as they take daughter Everly to school together

It’s been almost three months since Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan announced their separation. Here they are yesterday taking their daughter Everly to a class, entering separately. They said that they were parting amicably. They all say they’re parting amicably. It is often not amicable. But this ca...

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom movie review

The bar that Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has to clear is just “be less of a sexist mess than Jurassic World”. That’s it. The bar could not be lower. Jurassic Park has never and will never spawn a good sequel because it’s a one-trick pony, story-wise, and every subsequent Jurassic movie will repea...

Intro for June 22, 2018

Dear Gossips,  If you’ve been visiting this blog regularly over the last 15 years, maybe you’re tired of me evangelising about YA books. I’m not sorry about this.

Johnny Depp’s nighttime “truths” in 10, 000 word Rolling Stone interview

The cover of this month’s Rolling Stone features Cardi B and Offset. Underneath their headline is a Rolling Stone exclusive, “The Troubled World of Johnny Depp”. The article was published online today. It is over 10,000 words. There was a time when a 10,000 word exclusive interview with Johnny Depp ...

Smutty Social Media, June 21, 2018

Nothing says, “I’m not into celebrity life” quite like posing for a glossy fitness magazine. If we examine the Men’s Health demographic, how do you think they know Justin – from his prestige HBO show, or his marriage to one of the biggest female stars of the last 20 years? At least they stuck with h...

Janet Jackson covers The Happiness Issue of ESSENCE

Janet Jackson is headlining the ESSENCE music festival in July. If you weren’t already familiar with ESSENCE Fest, Girl’s Trip made sure that you know: it’s America’s “biggest celebration of black women” held in New Orleans every year. ESSENCE is a magazine that celebrates black women every issue. I...

Pete Davidson confirms engagement to Ariana Grande on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

Pete Davidson was also on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last night. He was the second guest, after Robert Pattinson, and Jimmy asked Robert to stay for Pete’s interview because Pete is apparently Robert’s biggest fan. That was the whole bit – Pete didn’t give a sh-t about promoting the movi...

Robert Pattinson promotes Damsel with Mia Wasikowska

Well isn’t that a clickbaity headline. But I can back it up, I promise.  Robert Pattinson is currently promoting Damsel with Mia Wasikowska which is getting solid reviews – it’s one of Sarah’s favourite movies of the year and her review will be posted soon. As she’s already noted, Robert over the...

Lucasfilm presses pause on Star Wars spin-offs

After Solo’s disappointing box office, marking the first failure of Disney-era Lucasfilm, something amazing has happened: Lucasfilm has pressed pause. That is, they have put the spin-offs on ice for the time being. Collider reports that the “Star Wars Story” branch of films has been suspended indefi...

Blue Ivy Carter grossed out by her parents' passion in On the Run 2 tour interlude

Blue Ivy Carter’s mother is the Queen of All Entertainers, Beyoncé Knowles. Or King Beyoncé – have you read Lindsay Zoladz’s piece for The Ringer about Beyoncé becoming the Alpha Carter? It’s so f-cking good I wish I came up with it. Anyway, my point is, the B.I.C., with her lineage – and her war...

I’ve been meaning to post about Catherine Zeta- Jones’ “interview” in The Mirror, particularly this quote: “One thing I’m not is humble any more. I’m sick of being humble.

Justin Bieber carries Hailey Baldwin on the set of DJ Khaled’s new project

Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin, after not hiding their situation at all in New York over the weekend, were in Miami on Tuesday, on the set of DJ Khaled’s new project. Khaled apparently gave JB a new Rolex in appreciation for whatever it is that is about to happen. After several months, almost a ye...

Michael B Jordan in first trailer for Creed II

In 2015, Creed was a surprise. Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan, coming off Fruitvale Station, reinvigorated the Rocky franchise by making it about not only a new generation, but a new culture, passing the title and the franchise not to Rocky’s son but to Apollo Creed’s. Creed was so good Warner B...

Jon Hamm and Ed Helms in Tag movie review

A high-concept comedy based on a Wall Street Journal article about a group of middle-aged dudes who play tag is not a sure thing, to say the least. But Tag, the movie based on that article, is, surprisingly, not bad. It’s not great, like most studio comedies it’s too broad for that—Popstar is the on...

US Weekly and PEOPLE's pro-Brad Pitt headlines as World War Brange continues

World War Brange resumed last week as court documents leaked revealing that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are still scrapping over custody of their children. Most of the headlines are focusing on the fact that the judge in the case has told Angelina that she must allow Brad more access to the kids. M...

Meghan Markle at Royal Ascot

As mentioned earlier, here are Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at Royal Ascot today for Royal Meghan’s first time. They travelled via carriage, partly along the same route as they one they took on the day they got married, along the Long Walk. And she’s in a white dress, best to show off the fascinat...

MTV Trailblazers: Lena Waithe and Keiynan Lonsdale

Lena Waithe won the official MTV Trailblazer award in last night’s broadcast but it was Keiynan Lonsdale who proved why the trail she’s blazing is so important.

The Black Panther cast: MTV’s big winners

I miss the Black Panther press tour. I didn’t realize how much I missed it until last night when Chadwick Boseman, Michael Bae Jordan and Winston Duke were reunited to represent the film at the MTV Movie and TV Awards.  Look, a colourful array of snacks!  A beleza do Chadwick Boseman, Mich...

Royal Meghan’s first Royal Ascot preview

Royal Ascot is now underway and the Queen and several members of the royal family will be in attendance.

Tiffany Haddish was the best thing about the MTV Movie and TV Awards

It is no surprise that Tiffany Haddish was the best thing about the MTV Movie and TV Awards. She stays ready. Since Girl’s Trip but especially since Tiffany and Maya Rudolph stole the Oscars, my stance has been this: let Tiffany Haddish host everything. After last night, I don’t know if I want this ...

Dear Gossips,  Can we start the day with some work porn?

Show Your Work: Tiffany, Ocean’s, and Tracee

This week’s episode was recorded on Thursday night because of my travel plans which means Duana and I had no idea, LIKE THE REST OF THE WORLD, that we were about to go Apesh-t. One of the founding principles of Show Your Work, however, is to “give them what they need, not what they want” and Beyoncé...

Review: The Incredibles 2 is at least as good as The Incredibles

The Incredibles has stood for fourteen years as one of the best superhero movies ever made. In the time between the original and the sequel out now, The Incredibles has become so beloved that the film begins with an intro from the cast thanking fans for their patience, sticking out the fourteen-year...

Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin are so back together

I was on vacation for a week. A week is all it took for Hailey Baldwin and Justin Bieber to go from distant exes to definitely f-cking, hand-holding and PDA-ing all over the streets. I came back to photos of Hailey and Justin making out like rabid teens. WHAT HAPPENED TO SHAWN? WHY IS JUSTIN DRESSED...

Beyoncé is most definitely a genius

Over the last few weeks, there’s been discussion about the word “genius” - who gets to be called a genius and why we may need to stop calling them geniuses. There are many, many problematic geniuses. Most, if not all, are men. Women aren’t as quickly labelled geniuses, if ever. Run a search of how o...

The Carters have cemented their legacy. Beyoncé and Jay-Z are BEYONCĖ and JAY-Z, Queen and King of hip-hop, reigning rap royalty and culture provocateurs.

Thomas Markle does paid interview with British Press

On the one hand, there’s Beyoncé who can take over the Louvre and manages to surprise the world. Not one leak. No one had any idea until Saturday afternoon what she was able to pull off. On the other hand… there’s Meghan Markle whose relatives will not let her live. I should specify – her MARKLE rel...

Dear Gossips, There’s a Chinese expression that applies to almost everything:  One kind of rice feeds a hundred kinds of people.  Sometimes it’s about how, despite our differences, in one way we’re all the same. Other times it’s an observation about the opposite – that you can’t expect ever...

Liz Hannah streams writers panel of women in response to Variety's tone deaf 11 man panel

It started with one badass. Well. Many badasses.    When Variety published their panelists for “A Night In The Writers Room”, there were 12 showrunners named – including 11 men. Names you know, like Judd Apatow and Michael Schur and David Shore. This was obviously bullsh-t, and was called out as s...

EW offers first looks of Aquaman starring Jason Mamoa

Aquaman isn’t due until December, and for the first time this decade Warner Brothers and DC Films have not sprayed us down with marketing every minute of every day. With Aquaman they have displayed actual restraint, which means that we are only just now, six months out, starting to see the marketing...

Is Natalie Portman 2018 who you expected her to be?

Natalie Portman is promoting her documentary, Eating Animals. She stopped by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last night. And he asked her about Jared Kirshner.

Brie Larson's take on underrepresentation in film criticism sparks outrage

I would like to get through one goddamn week without something in the world being on fire, because frankly, I am f*cking exhausted of constantly having to beg to be recognized as an equal member of society.

Royal Meghan’s: “best husband”, new earrings

By all accounts, Meghan Markle’s first away day with the Queen yesterday was a success. I mean, it was pretty obvious on Her Majesty face, non? The day went so well not even the British tabloids, usually pretty reliable, could create a scandal out of the not-really-all-that-awkward moment when the Q...

Diana & Steve: shoulder-pads and fanny packs

As Sarah wrote the other day, production is now underway on Wonder Woman 2 with Gal Gadot and Patty Jenkins returning as director. Also Chris Pine who, somehow, will be magicked back to life.

Dear Gossips, Incredibles 2 will win the box office this weekend, no question. The only question is how big?

Did you hear that Jeremy Renner broke his arms and went back to work?

Hawkeye did not make the cut in Avengers: Infinity War, so Jeremy Renner sat out the press tour, which means we only have to hear about his two broken arms once this summer. In case you missed it: Renner broke both arms doing a stunt for his new movie, Tag. A lot of the Tag press has been about Jere...

Rachel Bloom is real in her GQ feature

I love, love, love Rachel Bloom (if Lainey allowed emojis, I would insert a hundred hearts here). Yes Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is funny and brilliant and smart and difficult, but that isn’t the only reason why.    Rachel is the rare celebrity who spends her time in interviews engaging, rather than expl...

Drake honours his home with I'm Upset video

WORK. Drake has just given us some WORK. Very, very good work. Outstanding work.   Previously on Beefs, Drake released Duppy Freestyle, a diss track in response to Pusha T’s diss track, Infrared. Infrared, it turns out, was a trap. And Push followed it up with what looked like a knockout punch...

Robert Pattinson and Mia Wasikowska look good in 'Damsel'

Robert Pattinson has a new movie coming out next week, the quirky western Damsel in which he plays a lovelorn sap with a miniature horse named Butterscotch, trying to woo a woman who has no visible feelings for him. He co-stars with Mia Wasikowska, and they both turned out for the premiere last nigh...

Neri Oxman's boyfriend Bill Ackman claims victory over Brad

Two months ago, it was Page Six that broke the news that Brad Pitt was spending time with architect, artist, and academic Neri Oxman. It was what we call a “great scoop” in the gossip business. And, remember, before that point, Dr Oxman wasn’t exactly a celebrity gossip fixture. So it’s not just tha...

Angelina releases statement condemning leak

Earlier this week, court documents in Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s custody case were made available to the media and as I wrote yesterday, most of the media focus was on the details that were unfavourable to Angelina while lightly skipping over the information about how Brad, after a year and a ha...

Royal Meghan’s day with the Queen

As we’ve been anticipating, Meghan Markle is spending the day with the Queen in Cheshire after a sleepover on the royal train. Royal Meghan wore Givenchy and the shoulders were not a problem.

Examining the Pete-Ariana engagement ring timeline

I know. I’m sorry. I should never be allowed to come back. Before you kick me out though, let’s talk about Ariana Grande’s engagement ring. As you know, she and Pete Davidson want to get married. They’ve been together a month. According to TMZ, the ring cost almost $100,000, took two weeks to make, ...

Smutty Social Media, June 13, 2018

As Lainey mentioned yesterday, Instagram is now a dating service. I am very into performative digital flirting and fully support millennials and their thirst traps. Which brings me to this: Cazzie David “liked” one of John Mayer’s posts. Maybe they are friends, maybe they go away back. Sure. But… it...

Wonder Woman 1984 begins production under Patty Jenkins

Wonder Woman 2 began production today and to mark the occasion Gal Gadot and director Patty Jenkins tweeted out first-look images of Diana Prince and Steve Trevor. The sequel is titled Wonder Woman 1984—GREAT title—and so this is 1980s fashion for Diana and Steve. It’s not completely tragic? Observe...

Dear Gossips,  The first thing I did this morning when my alarm went off was check on the #mprracoon.

Scott Eastwood is definitely faking it, but I will not besmirch an innocent puppy. Scott Eastwood on Instagram: “Are we asleep or are we faking it?” The Rock uses a vision board and wished for Gal Gadot. He has one more person that he really, really wants. Who is his dream villain?  ...

Hotel Artemis is the type of movie that makes a great trailer and forgettable movie

In case you, like me, watched the trailer for Hotel Artemis and thought, Oh, a fun John Wick knock-off, allow me to disabuse you of the notion. Despite obvious similarities, particularly in the “hotel for criminals” vein, Hotel Artemis isn’t really a John Wick knock-off. There’s a likeness, to be su...

Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson love-drunk and engaged

Multiple outlets reported yesterday that Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson are engaged. It was only exactly a month ago that Ariana was seen leaving the Saturday Night Live after-party.

Impressive Ocean's 8 box office shouldn't be a surprise anymore

We’ve known for years that diversity is good business. It pays dividends to appeal to more than just one demographic. And some groups are so starved for decent content, if you make something halfway good targeted at the overlooked and underserved, you can earn a nice little profit. Make something ac...

Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin back together

The last time we checked in on Shawn Mendes and Hailey Baldwin, it was mid-May and Kathleen wrote about how Shawn was saying they were “friends”, even though they’d just gone to the Met Gala together, and all kinds of speculation about whether or not they were using each other to promote his album a...

Meghan Markle's dress was not a problem inside the Royal Family and Intro for June 12, 2018

Dear Gossips, There’s a story going around right now that Prince Harry has a say in what Royal Meghan wears. Supposedly Harry is Meghan’s “surprise stylist” and that he “ gives his views on what he thinks looks best, rather than helping her follow royal protocol on hemlines or anything like that”...

Priyanka and Nick are official

Last week Kathleen posted about Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas, wondering whether or not it was “good time” or a “long time”. On Friday they were seen flying in to New York together.

First Man trailer starring Ryan Gosling released

We’re just a few months away from the fall festival circuit and award-season movie jamboree, which is why there have been so many f*cking trailers in the last week. The latest addition is for another automatic contender, First Man. It’s the re-team of Ryan Gosling and Damien Chazelle, following La L...

The Cambridge children steal the weekend spotlight

Meghan Markle may be the royal family’s newest shiniest member but don’t forget, it’s the Cambridge children, Big G, Charlotte, and now Trey who are the main focus. After all, one day, they will be the senior members of the royal family. One day. Until then, Savannah Phillips can still tell Big G wh...

Royal Meghan’s first balcony, first tour

To be fair, it’ll be a series of firsts for Royal Meghan in the coming year. This weekend it was her first Trooping as she and Prince Harry made their first public appearance together since returning from honeymoon. We were waiting for this. As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, we were waiting to s...

Tony Award acceptance speeches: Cakes & Names

I love the Oscars, I probably will never not love the Oscars. But to love something, you have to be honest about it and with it. And you know what happens by the time the Oscars come around? They’re almost over it. Award season is long. In between all the award shows, they’re hustling, campaigning –...

Intro for June 11, 2018

Dear Gossips, There are a lot of things that make me stupid. One of the ways I’m stupid is that I forget, every year, how delightful the Tony Awards are, how joyful they are, pure joy from start to finish. Most award shows seem long, and most of the people on stage at award shows, despite the fac...

Best friends Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox at AFI tribute to George Clooney

There have been many pieces written recently about whether Sex and The City holds up. The show is celebrating its 20th anniversary so it’s the perfect time to revisit and determine if it’s still as feminist, progressive and great as pop culture has immortalized it to be. My fave essays on the topic ...

Chris Hemsworth is the bad guy in Bad Times at the El Royale trailer

Nearly a decade ago MGM went bankrupt and the resulting financial quagmire threw a lot of movies into disarray. It delayed development on a Bond movie, on The Hobbit which at the time was being stewarded by Guillermo Del Toro, and a bunch of movies got shelved in the fallout, including a horror movi...

Amal Clooney gets personal in tribute to George as he receives AFI Lifetime Achievement Award

George Clooney received the AFI Lifetime Achievement Award last night in Hollywood.

Because this is the...

Prince was ...

Rom-coms might be back, which is a great thing. The other night, High Fidelity was on, which I consider a rom-com. But maybe it’s really a movie about adulting? Anyway, Catherine Zeta-Jones and John Cusack have excellent chemistry. They had it in America’s Sweethearts, too. How can we get Netflix’s ...

Louis Vuitton ambassador Emma Stone at event in Paris without Justin Theroux

Emma Stone was in Paris yesterday at Fondation Louis Vuitton for the presentation of the LVMH Prize to an emerging designer, clearly a major priority for conglomerate as even Karl Lagerfeld, presumably repping Fendi, was there too.

Kelly Clarkson can't escape media's comments on her weight

I have a theory that almost every female celebrity has a thing – that one annoying detail people can’t seem to get over, the thing they’re asked about incessantly even though it has been years of the celebrity saying they don’t want to talk about that thing anymore. For Carrie Underwood, it’s going ...

Britney Spears on a jet ski in Miami

… on a jet ski! These photos of Britney Spears on a jet ski are everywhere. Most outlets seem to be fascinated that Britney is seen picking her wedgie in a few shots. She’s on a jet-ski in a bikini. Of course she has a wedgie. I love that she was unafraid to handle her wedged-up situation even thoug...

Please. Don’t think of that as a criticism. Petty is my default setting.

Dear Gossips,  Duana and I were texting on Tuesday night. At one point she messaged to say that “our Beyoncé sh-t isn’t here yet”.

Matthew McConaughey looks great in White Boy Rick trailer

The timeline is thus: Matthew McConaughey broke out in A Time to Kill.

Sandra Bullock with Bryan Randall at Ocean's 8 premiere

Is it? Have Sandra Bullock and Bryan Randall been to a premiere together before? I can’t remember. Usually I have a good memory with these things – a great memory, actually. That said, I don’t think we are supposed to remember because she’s kept this relationship super low-key. Which is why Bryan wa...

Awkwafina and Anne Hathaway at the Ocean's 8 premiere

Of the eight members of Ocean’s 8, Awkwafina aka Nora Lum, is the one who, you could say, is new to this.

Rihanna and Sarah Paulson at Ocean's 8 premiere

You know what the cast of Ocean’s 8, minus Rihanna, got asked about over and over again during the junket? Rihanna, of course. Even among stars she is THE star. Sarah Paulson joked about peeing herself when she met her. As I mentioned yesterday, all Rihanna has to do is show up. Because when she doe...

Jennifer Lawrence reportedly dating art dealer Cooke Maroney

It’s not John Mayer, even though he’s been trying to put it into the universe by reverse-psychologising that the universe would never let it happen.

J. Prince asked Drake not to release response to Pusha T's The Story of Adidon

It’s been exactly a week since Pusha T released “The Story of Adidon”, his response to Drake’s “Duppy Freestyle” which was itself a response to Pusha’s “Infrared” – as Duana and I discussed on this week’s episode of Show Your Work, it turns out, “Infrared” was a trap that Drake was baited into.

Dakota Johnson in deliberately vague Suspiria trailer

Luca Guadagnino has established himself as one of the most luxuriously visual directors working today.

Harry Styles is the face of new Gucci campaign

The only Hot Harry I recognize is back.

Kaia Gerber attends her first CFDA Awards

It was only last September that Kaia Gerber, who’d just turned 16, made her debut at New York Fashion Week, opening the Alexander Wang show with that strut.

Dear Gossips,  I was channel-surfing last night and The Devil Wears Prada was on. It’s been a minute since I watched that movie which came out twelve years ago this month.
