Justin Bieber’s Home Raided by Police in Egg-Throwing Investigation

[instagram URL=http://instagram.com/p/hkjmVeAvl1/ width=350]

-Police raided Justin Bieber’s home today for that egg-throwing thing, warrant and all. They ended up finding coke and arrested his BFF. Sadly, I think he’ll consider this a point of pride rather than a wake-up call.

-Judging by everything I learned about the 30 Second to Mars fanbase at the TIFF premiere of Jared Leto‘s documentary last year, they’re going to eat Taylor Swift alive.

Willow Smith explained to V magazine why she turned down the role of Annie. Do 13-year-olds really feel the need to “decompress”? Good lord.

-I didn’t love Gabourey Sidibe‘s Golden Globes dress — but I did love her response to haters.

Prince knows everything about New Girl and is a Nick/Jess ‘shipper. My world is askew.

Kanye West has been accused of assault — though to be fair, it sounds like the guy totally deserved it.

-Also, Kanye had lunch with Anna Wintour, where he no doubt campaigned for Kim to be on the cover of Vogue.

-Two people no one really cares about just got engaged. Yay?

-Speaking of people you don’t care about: Pamela Anderson has remarried her ex-husband Rick Salomon.

Gisele Bundchen in hot water for taking her baby on an ATV ride — and neither wore a helmet.

-I’m not going to miss hate-watching The Newsroom, though I’ll probably miss hate-reading the recaps.

Jerry Seinfeld and Jason Alexander went to the NYC diner their show made famous, and everyone squee’d.

-It’s a good day for new music. We’ve got new stuff from  Tokyo Police Club, Against Me!, and Kevin Drew.

Gwyneth Paltrow had a very six-degrees-of-separation weekend.

Charlie Sheen insulted Denise Richards on Twitter — maybe. I don’t really understand anything he tweets.

-I spent an embarrassing amount of time today looking at GIFs of Tom Misson in skinny jeans.

-The rest of Glee will now be set exclusively in NYC. With Nate Archibald! If Blair Waldorf shows up, I’m back in.

-I’m fascinated by how Hayden Panettiere ended up wearing Tom Ford to the Golden Globes without his permission — and then got him to send her apology flowers. Girl’s got moves.

-The trailer for The Railway Man, starring Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman, has landed.

 

Golden Globes 2014: Best and Worst Dresses + Full List of Winners

This year’s Golden Globes’ red carpet was a sea of pale dresses and paler lips, but some stars managed to stand out. I rounded up all of the best and worst looks for MSN Canada (see the gallery here), but here’s a quick look at my faves — and my least faves.

BEST:

I might be in the minority here (and judging my the MSN Facebook commenters who couldn’t believe I gave her a thumbs-up, I am), but I LOVED Emma Watson‘s look. It was young and fresh and different — exactly what someone her age should be doing. It was also not super dressy, perfect for a presenter who doesn’t want to take the spotlight away from the nominees. Perfection.

Elisabeth Moss rightly won for her role in Top of the Lake, but she was already a winner the second she stepped out on the red carpet in this sleek J Mendel dress. And I usually don’t like shiny!

Reese Witherspoon wasn’t even a nominee, but she stole the spotlight on the carpet with this slimming, sexy Calvin Klein. I love that she was one of the few who dared to opt for colour. I wish Tatiana Maslany would have worn something like this. Her flapper-inspired dress was fine, but she’s a newcomer and this was her opportunity to make her mark.

Cate Blanchett‘s Armani dress is super edgy and super perfect for her. God bless her for never being a bore on the red carpet. I love it!

Olivia Wilde showed the other pregnant attendees how it’s done (we’re looking at you, Drew Barrymore and Kerry Washington) with this sleek and sexy green Gucci.

WORST:

Raise your hand if you’re over Zooey Deschanel like I am? It’s one thing to bow to the alter of quirk, but that doesn’t mean you have to choose such aggressively unflattering outfits. And those shoes are unforgivable.

Julia Roberts didn’t even attempt to pretend to care with this outfit. So very boring, it’s almost insulting.

It’s your moment, Sandra Bullock! Why are you handicapping yourself with such a hideous Prabal Gurung dress?

Speaking of not taking advantage of their moment in the sun, Jennifer Lawrence now has the perfect haircut to pair with a fun, edgy dress. This was not it.

Was there another dress more desperate and annoying than Paula Patton‘s overdone Stéphane Rolland Couture? She and Robin Thicke clearly deserve each other.

Hilary Duff Separates from Mike Comrie

hilary-duff-split-mike-comrie

-Just days after pictures of their “romantic stroll” in a park surfaced, Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie have announced their separation after three years of marriage. Remember how she, uh, commemorated his proposal? I’m guessing this milestone was a different story.

-Congrats to the impossibly gorgeous Jesse Williams, who just welcomed a baby girl. (The fact that his wife is a totally normal-looking real estate broker somehow makes him even more attractive.)

Aaron Sorkin is dating Courtney Love? How does one go from seeing Kristen Davis to that trainwreck?!

-Finally some good news for Amanda Bynes: her bong-tossing case may be dismissed.

These pictures of Anne Hathaway screaming for help while caught in a riptide in Hawaii are pretty terrifying.

Leslie Mann got super sentimental and teary when appearing for the last time on Jay Leno‘s show, and it was awkward.

-The cast of Orange Is The New Black looks amazing in Elle’s super glam photo shoot.

Shia LaBeouf tweeted last night that he’s retiring from public life. Don’t tease us!

-Oh jeez. Whitney Houston‘s 20-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina tweeted yesterday that she and Nick Gordon are “happily married.”

Jay Z and Beyonce rented out an entire zoo for Blue Ivy‘s second birthday party.

Judy Blume and Lena Dunham want you to take a break from your screens and read some books already.

-Meanwhile, Donald Glover says Lena Dunham is playing all of us (and winning).

-Despite being incredibly awkwardly phrased, I don’t really think this TCA interviewer’s question about Girls deserved the smackdown Lena Dunham and Judd Apatow delivered.

-Speaking of awkward TCA interviewers, a reporter rudely criticized Tamron Hall for talking about her sister’s murder.

Aubrey Plaza kind of bugs me (like when she refused to be interviewed about Parks & Rec’s 100th episode), but Anna Kendrick is friends with her so she can’t be all bad.

-I can’t get enough of Josh Malina‘s Twitter feed, but this photo he just posted of Bradley Cooper might be my favourite tweet of his ever.

-Game of Thrones is teasing scenes from their new trailer on Vine. No Brienne and Jaime? Fail!

Zac Efron is all about sex on the first date, y’all.

-Here’s a scene from Spoils of Babylon. From all the reviews I’ve read, it seems like the cast had more fun making it than everyone’s having watching it.

Kristen Wiig had a very awkward first date on Jimmy Kimmel last night.

-Is Lindsay Lohan up to her old tricks again? This may explain some recent not-so-blind blind items.

-The upcoming Veronica Mars will make debut its at SXSW. A new poster has also landed.

-In news that will surprise no one, Justin Bieber egged his neighbour’s house.

Emma Watson is reportedly dating a hot rugby star.

-New Heritage Minutes are being released? Huzzah!

John Mayer got Katy Perry a pair of diamond angel wings for xmas. Ugh.

Miley Cyrus‘ video for “Wrecking Ball” has been banned from French TV before 10 p.m. That’s right — Miley Cyrus is too skanky for FRANCE!

-Meanwhile, Marc Jacobs‘ go-to photographer, Juergen Teller, refused to photograph Miley Cyrus for the new campaign. Ouch.

-The always awesome Joseph Gordon-Levitt talked about his mom teaching him to be a feminist on Ellen this week.

-Expect Lupita Nyong’o to wear Miu Miu at the Golden Globes this weekend. Her new campaign for them is stunning.

-A ranking of every character in the Buffy universe seems like a lovely way to kick off a weekend, don’t ya thing?

Bryan Cranston is going for Heisenberg in the trailer and new clip from Cold Comes the Night.
