So, here it is…the final installment of the Royal Olympic Watch (aka pictures of Duchess Kate). Here she is with David Cameron and Prince Harry (among others) at last night’s Closing Ceremony. Chic to the very last.

So, People is reporting that Taylor Swift has bought a house ACROSS THE STREET from the Kennedys in Hyannis Port, Mass. She’s 22. Conor Kennedy, whom she’s been dating for a few months at the most, is 18. He just endured a major trauma with the suicide of his mother. Does any of this sound [...]

Jennifer Aniston is engaged to Justin Theroux. Happy news for all involved. Except the tabloids, that is. Can they sell magazines with a happy Jen? Or, is the long running narrative of her being the wronged woman in the Brad-Jen-Angie triangle just too compelling (and profitable) to resist continuing? After all, since 2005–when Brad and [...]

Throughout the Olympics the twitterverse was consistently on fire with posts bearing the hashtag “NBCFail”.

She may be approaching her due date any day now, but Reese is still looking as chic as ever — even if she might feel like she’s the size of a house, you wouldn’t know it from her adorable and super-stylish parade of outfits. Here is just a sampling from the past week or so…how [...]

Drive director Nicolas Winding Refn directed Blake in her first ad for Gucci Premiere fragrance. Given the director’s pedigree the ad is somewhat underwhelming–showing Blake in all her glorious blondness standing in front of the lights of LA and walking in the desert–it’s not that exciting. Sure, she looks gorgeous–that’s her brand, all blond and [...]

How adorable are Prince William and his Duchess Catherine here? They came out to support Team GB again today and were all flirty and affectionate–a rare display of PDA. Daily Royal Watch continues as the Games go on…  

If, like me, you’ve been suffering through the early episodes of The Newsroom and occasionally finding yourself entertained but more often bemused, know that you are not alone. There are a lot of us out there. Enough, in fact, that New York magazine’s Vulture reports that HBO brought Sorkin in to this summer’s Television Critics [...]
