Who Wore What Jewels Weekly

From Coco Rocha’s enchanting floral-inspired choker, just in time for the Met Gala, to the elegant ‘Bird On A Rock’ brooches adorning both Matt Bomer and Emily Blunt’s lapels and the heartfelt nod from Emma Roberts with her delicately adorned earrings at the CMT Awards—this week’s sparkle game is undeniably strong! But the real question remains: which of these glamorous jewelry looks do you like?…

Emmy winner Kerry Washington is renowned for her powerful portrayals of real-life figures. From her roles in the Academy Award-winning film Ray and The Last King of Scotland to her iconic portrayal of Olivia Pope in the hit TV series Scandal, Washington has consistently brought depth and nuance to these complex characters. Now, she takes on another true story, embodying Major Charity Adams in Tyler Perry's latest film, The Six Triple Eight.

This compelling war drama follows the journey of 855 Black women who enlisted to tackle a daunting task: resolving a three-year backlog of undelivered mail. Facing discrimination and the harsh realities of war-torn Europe, these remarkable women defied expectations, sorting over 17 million pieces of mail ahead of schedule.

For Washington, honoring Adams' legacy was paramount. She immersed herself in extensive research, determined to capture the essence of this pioneering woman.

The Six Triple Eight is now streaming on Netflix.

We are not judging how bad the movie is, we are judging which adapted the book the worst. There are good movies that are bad adaptions.

Propaganda below the cut (spoilers may apply)

World War Z:

The only thing from the book in this film is a two minute scene with a guy with the same name as a character from the book who gives basic exposition and only vaguely alludes to the stuff he did in the book. It’s just a bland Brad Pitt action movie that wanted to trick fans of an interesting book into seeing it. I wanted to go see Pacific Rim but my cousin dragged me to this shit instead. And yes I am still mad about it.

It shares almost nothing with the book except the title, the zombies, and a couple of locations

It took a genuinely interesting, anthology-like book that featured incredible scenes (of surviving the zombie apocalypse), and used its name to create a generic snoozefest action movie with Brad Pitt because he wanted to be the main character of a story with no main character. There were like 20+ zombie scenes in the book that I still remember to this day and IT USED NONE OF THEM. Battle of Yorktown? The blind Japanese guy and his shovel? The castle? The zombies crawling on the ocean floor???! NONE OF THEM IN THE MOVIE!!!!!! When will this get rebooted into an anthology TV series we deserve???? WHEN?

The School for Good and Evil:

oh my fucking god. okay. this movie absolutely should have been a TV show. it cuts out so much of the book and is still two and a half hours long. it would have worked much better as a tv show with six hour and a half episodes per season. they also did some…things to both of the main characters’ personalities and motivations that change the story. for the most part the movie is ok, but it just Should Not have been a movie. as it is, its incredibly campy and all of the actors are fucking incredibly. speaking of the cast, it is Stacked. sofia wylie, charlize theron, kerry washington, kit young, michelle yeoh… iconic. they slayed fr. the main issue is that it just Doesnt Work as a movie and i guess i see why it was one but like. shoulda been a tv show.

It victimizes the villainous actions of one of the main characters and makes the other main character pretty much useless since there is no conflict between the two as a result of the victimizing.

Listen it was a fun movie but uhhh. Gavaldon's been dealing with regular-as-rain kidnappings for a couple hundred years. Lady Lesso wasn't a Reader, and DEFINITELY not the last one kidnapped. WHERE IS AUGUST SADER. This is literally not the same story.

After Ethel was buried by Bobby idk this month or last month, Kerry and her siblings were invited to the AG office and other places in Washington and RFK Jr was the only one who was absent from those photos. Safe to say they’re done with him. I wonder if they will speak up next week when he has his hearing or something.

i feel sort of guilty (?) for saying this but a part of me hopes they do. if they did, i feel like whatever they say would reach more people just because of the hearing and whatnot, and it would restore a bit of the dignity the rfk legacy has lost in relation to rfk jr. due to how he’s used it to his advantage and let others exploit it as well.

they can even take the rfk bust on the way out! a win win situation i’d say. however….. i also wouldn’t blame them if they stayed out of this one since they’ve already said plenty of things in the past anyway. but would it be iconic? absolutely.

[magxit]

I think Taylor’s whole glam team are hit or miss. I preferred Pat McGrath makeup at the 2022 VMA’s over anything Lori has done.

Honestly, Law Roach is good with Zendaya/Celine. Tall Skinny celebs. But his other clients are Meh. Imo, He didn’t improve Kerry Washington’s look.

It is a shame that Taylor looks like a model but she isn’t a red carpet icon.

"I feel great, you know; I'm here with my two sisters and my best friend so that makes it special, you know - when you've got your family here. So yeah, I'm delighted with myself."

"Yeah, this is a bit of - this is custom Vivienne Westwood. I adore her; I just think she's one of our, our greatest ever geniuses so I was really thrilled to be, to be wearing her."

"Oh yeah, oh yeah. Yeah, well you go in and they - you tell them your ideas and they go: "No." No, they don't; that's actually not true - they're incredibly collaborative. I love all that stuff - I've always loved clothes, so part - a part of my job is to dress up, you know, and, you know, for a character, but it's also, I don't know, it's really fun; menswear has got much more, more fun now - you used to just have to wear a black tie the whole time time - so it's nice to have a bit of, you know, a bit of - let your creative juices flow."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's really fun that; it's really lovely because you know, it is a bit weird sometimes when, you know, you don't know who's gonna get nominated and who isn't going to get nominated, and, you know, I suspect that people don't really remember after a ye - two months later; they're like: "Huh? I don't remember." But on the day, it's lovely. And you know, it sounds like maybe a bit of a cliche, but the nomination is really lovely, you know, because you just feel like your, you work has been seen. And so when you have a great time, with Dakota Fanning particularly; I absolutely adored working with her, and so to see her honoured this evening, you know, everybody loves Dakota Fanning. She's an icon. Yeah, she's an icon."

"...Do you know about that photograph; that photograph - every other boy in that photo, photograph was wearing heels. I looked like the small - people said it was like when, when, when the Shire got a Zara; it was one of the best things ever. But I particularly look so tiny because I'm wearing flats, and those boys if you look carefully, they had little - I wouldn't say they had lifts, I wouldn't, I wouldn't - they were, they were, you know - they were heeled. They were heeled boys. But we all did look tiny, but particularly little Scotty here, I was like "Jeez." It was like I'd won a competition. But anyway."

"Yes, we did; we were summoned by Kylie. We were so excited. We were like: "We can't let down the gays - we've gotta go there." So we did. We were, we were so scared that we were going to drop her - you can't drop Kylie Minogue - but we didn't. It was so - it was, it was a real honour. It was so fun. You know, it's kind of crazy all that stuff that happens but no better person than to do it with than Jonny. He's, he's just the best boy; I love him dearly."

"I'm delighted to talk about Knives Out 3, because I had the most fun on Knives Out 3. You know, it's got a cast of real, genuine legends in there; Kerry Washington, Glenn Close, Josh O'Connor, Josh Brolin, Jeremy Renner - oh my God - so many other people; Daniel Craig obviously."

"Yeah - 'You guys don't mess this one up.' But it's so fun, and we all had a real dreamy, dreamy time, and I think it'll be really, really special, so yeah - watch out."

"...As January came to an end, Duchess Meghan attended Kerry Washington's birthday party.

"Jessica Alba, who recently announced her split from husband Cash Warren, shared video footage and photos from the star-studded bash. Duchess Meghan subtly appeared in some of the footage, and could be seen singing 'Happy Birthday' to Washington while sitting next to the Scandal icon.

...

"Having both appeared on popular TV shows—Meghan in Suits and Washington in Scandal—the pair have moved in the same circles for quite some time. In December 2024, Washington and the Duchess of Sussex both attended the Paley Honors Tribute to Tyler Perry in Beverly Hills, where they were photographed on the red carpet. Meghan was also spotted on a girls' night out with Washington and Kelly Rowland in December 2023, when the trio attended the Renaissance World Tour on Beyoncé's 42nd birthday."
