You know that famous scene in Sex and the City (the TV show) when Carrie Bradshaw breaks out in stress hives because she lacks The Bride Gene? That’s how I’ve felt about weddings for a really long time now. I enjoy looking at wedding photos. I enjoy wedding cake (any type of cake, honestly). I enjoy judging your wedding gown. But I’m missing The Bride Gene. I just… don’t care. Personally, I don’t care. And I’m fine with that. I always sort of assumed Sarah Jessica Parker didn’t care that much either – after all, she famously married Matthew Broderick wearing what looked like a black 1980s prom dress. But I forgot that SJP is shilling her own label now, and she’s just started selling bridal shoes. Thus, she covers the new issue of Martha Stewart Weddings. In the cover story, SJP gives ladies some wedding tips!

Her new dream wedding gown: “If I were getting married today, I’d likely wear cream, just to have that bridal experience. Now I would want my dress to have an Oscar de la Renta feel, pockets below the waist, a very fitted bodice, a huge skirt, in taffeta or duchesse satin. That silhouette appeals to me because it’s old-fashioned yet can look very modern.”

Something borrowed, something blue: “At my wedding, my shoes were teal velvet Robert Clergerie. I borrowed a handkerchief, someone gave me an old coin, and the dress was new, so I covered all my bases.”

Bridesmaids shouldn’t complain about their dresses: “It’s incumbent upon anyone who is included in a bridal party to wear what the bride wants—to make it work and not complain. It’s the couple’s day, and it’s an honor to be part of it.”

Choose flowers that have personal significance: “Personally, I love gardenias so, so much, and also lilies of the valley, because they are two of my mother’s favorites. When I was a kid living in Cincinnati, we grew lilies of the valley in the yard. Now, in summer, our house is filled with bouquets of wildflowers my daughters pick. At a wedding, people might strive for a more formal feeling, but a lot of the rules can be broken today. ‘Formal’ could be a handful of carnations, beautiful and simple.”

Stay loose: “Many couples don’t get to experience their own wedding; they’re making the rounds, trying to say hello and thank people. That’s understandable, but also step back at times and focus on what you see. I think it’s nice when there are children running around with their bows untied and hair disheveled. It relaxes and touches people.”

[From Martha Stewart Weddings]

CARNATIONS?!?!? Those are filler flowers!! God, I need to stop quoting SATC. As for SJP’s wedding advice… it sounds pretty normal to me. She’s not saying anything groundbreaking although I side-eye some of her personal preferences, especially her ideal wedding gown. The way SJP describes her current ideal gown just seems so basic and boring. Granted, she’s NOT Carrie Bradshaw and I would hate for her ideal to be that Vivienne Westwood monstrosity she wore in SATC (the first movie). Oh, and if I ever get married (I won’t), little kids will be banned. Tweens are fine, teens are fine. But little kids and babies? Nope.

If you’d like to see photos of SJP’s new bridal shoe line, go here.

Vanity Fair is doing a good job parceling out their Caitlyn Jenner exclusive cover story, and Caitlyn’s big debut really has blown everything else out of the gossip water this week. If some celebrity needs to go to rehab or a high-profile couple needs to announce their split, this might be the week for them to fly under the radar. But if a celebrity was actually trying to rollout another story in a splashy, look-at-me way, well… Caitlyn just stole your thunder. Even though the thunder belongs to Caitlyn’s stepdaughter, Kim Kardashian. Sources tell Radar that Kim asked Caitlyn to hold the VF release so Kim could have a moment with her pregnancy announcement. Too bad.

A source close to the family tells Radar exclusively, “Kris and other family members asked Caitlyn to hold the Vanity Fair cover and her big reveal until after Kim’s pregnancy got the proper publicity, but she refused to do so! Caitlyn said that she was not going to stand to the side anymore and that her days of doing what they wanted her to do are officially over.”

“Kim is a little bummed because she supported this transition so much more than the rest of the family and feels that she was owed the proper respect of holding it off for a couple more days,” the insider tells Radar. “But Caitlyn knew that if she did not do this, it would leak and that is the last thing that she wanted.”

[From Radar]

Even if this is true – that Kim asked Caitlyn to hold the VF release – it really wasn’t Caitlyn’s call at that point. Vanity Fair releases this stuff on a schedule, and all of this was planned out on an editorial level for MONTHS. Granted, Kim also planned her pregnancy rollout for months, so all this proves is that Caitlyn and Kim really weren’t sharing their plans.

What else? Honestly, we’re not even 72 hours past the initial VF cover release and I’m already overwhelmed by all of the information. VF released more excerpts here – Caitlyn talks about how she’s nicer than Bruce, how moved she’s been by reading all of her fan mail after the Diane Sawyer interview, how she felt like doing the Vanity Fair shoot was much better than winning an Olympic gold medal. There’s also this part, on how she decided on her name:

“It’s one of the hardest things in life—choosing your own name,” Jenner said. One way she attempted to come up with ideas was by watching the Miss America pageant. She’d survey some of the contestants to get ideas and see if any of them fit. She also liked the names Heather or Cathy. But Caitlyn also stuck out prominently in her mind. When her assistant, Rhonda, at one point independently suggested Caitlyn, Jenner said, “I love that name, too!” The coincidence helped seal the deal.

With the name itself set, Jenner went back and forth about how it would be spelled, between “k” and “c” as the first letter—no small task in the Jenner/Kardashian family, with its trademark “k” names. Finally, she decided it was best to break tradition, and the media associations that went with it. She settled on “c.”

[From Vanity Fair]

I understand the idea of differentiating herself from the K-Klan, but I think it’s a cheat to still use a K-sound name. I mean, “Heather Jenner” would have been a cleaner break, you know? Caitlyn-with-a-C still sounds like Kaitlyn-with-a-K.

And finally, you can see the promo for Caitlyn’s new E! series here.

An expectant Kim Kardashian attended the Hype Energy Drinks U.S. Launch on Tuesday (June 2) in Nashville, Tenn.

At three months along, the mom-to-be, 34, rocked a flesh-colored pleather sheath with a plunging neckline and stilettos.

“I hate the way I look in flats but heels can be hard during pregnancy,” the KUWTK star told PEOPLE at the event. “I’m already thinking, ‘What am I going to do?’ That’s the hardest thing in pregnancy when it comes to style.’ ”

The reality star also talked about staying healthy during her second pregnancy.

“I’m not looking to keep up that pre-pregnancy energy level this time. I think you need to go with being tired, with what your body tells you, and rest when you need to. I’m at that stage of pregnancy where everything is making me sick, even just the smell of things,” Kim shared. “But once I get past that, I’m really going to try to enjoy this pregnancy more and relax with it. And skip the donuts! With my first pregnancy I had a donut every morning. That’s not a good idea. I feel like I’m eating much healthier this time.”

According to a source, Kim and her husband Kanye West – who are already parents to 23-month-old daughter North – used in vitro fertilization to conceive this time around.

“Kim also had three surgeries to repair her uterus,” the insider told PEOPLE. “The inner lining had been so damaged that she was told conceiving on her own wasn’t possible.”

Reportedly, the reality star had IVF treatment with hormones four months ago, which didn’t take.

The next month, the couple conceived using IVF, but on Kim’s natural cycle, without hormones.

Here are some photos of Kit Harington walking around Tribeca yesterday. I think we should give Kit a slow clap for wearing somewhat regular jeans here. Those skinny jeans he wore the other day gave me nightmares. His tiny little body looked like it was suffocating from the waist down! At least he’s giving his junk room to breathe in these jeans, although they’re still pretty fitted. Kit’s been in NYC this week promoting Testament of Youth, but he’s also been doing interviews about Game of Thrones, of course. He ended up dropping some interesting pieces of GoT gossip while he chatted with HuffPo this week:

His Night’s Watch cloak/cape: “That cloak hasn’t been washed in five years. It smells like a wet dog. None of the clothes have properly been washed in five years, which is authentic.”

On Sunday’s episode: “I loved last night’s episode. I hoped it would live up to the month we spent filming it. That 20-minute sequence took a month. I hoped it worked and seeing the final thing, I thought it was great. Some of the fondest memories I have of Thrones are of that month.”

Spending a month in “cold and wet” conditions: “All the money on ‘Thrones’ is spent on the actual sequence or finishing the thing. None of it’s spent on the actors’ luxury. So we had this tiny cast tent with a river running through it, which is fine. You just muck in with ‘Thrones.’ It was great.”

On Jon Snow: “He’s more of your classic hero, I guess. He’s got his problems. He’s always been a slow-burner… What’s really intriguing for me this season is getting to break out of that younger self and becoming a man. Jon’s wiser than me. I wouldn’t be able to do many of the things Jon’s been resisting. He has more of a sense of duty that many modern men have.”

GoT theories: “It’s all is true! I don’t know. I love hearing the theories, but there are three men who seemingly know what’s going to happen: George, David [Benioff], and D.B. [Weiss]. They are so tight-lipped.”

No one is safe: “I think that’s the thrilling thing about the TV show, is that we really don’t fit by the norms and people are in danger and horrible things do happen to people and we don’t shy away from that. You can’t count on Jon Snow being safe or Tyrion being safe or anyone being safe, so it keeps people on the edge of their seat, and it’s why it’s good drama.”

[From HuffPo & Us Weekly]

Bless his heart. Between the moaning about how “none” of the money is spent on actors’ luxuries and saying that his costume smells like a wet dog, this is an excellent episode of Celebitchy Presents: Kit Harington Says Words.”

This is just a minor SPOILER – Kit also told HuffPo that the last two episodes of this season are “really big” and they involve “some huge shocks and some huge set pieces — it’s going to be epic.” OHMYGAWDDDDDDDDDD.

I saw these photos yesterday and I thought, “Eh, I’m not going to cover it.” Bobby Flay was getting his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, because yes, they give stars to celebrity chefs now. I mean, I could see giving a star to someone like Wolfgang Puck, who actually has a close association with all things Hollywood. But Bobby Flay? Eh. It doesn’t matter, celebrities pay for these stars.

So why am I covering these photos? It’s because someone spent some money to publicly slam Flay at his big event. In the middle of his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony, a perfectly timed plane flew overhead with a banner that read “CHEATER.” Hahahaha. I’m including some photos below.

Is this a fair assessment by the plane? Did Flay’s estranged wife Stephanie March organize this? Or was it someone else, like… January Jones? Last week, In Touch Weekly got their hands on March and Flay’s court papers, and March explicitly accused Flay of having a full-on affair with January in 2010. March also accused Flay of having at least two other affairs that she knew about, including a years-long affair with his food stylist. For what it’s worth, Flay has denied everything and he’s claimed that March is just trying to malign him to get their prenup thrown out.

CHEATER!!!!!!!!!!!

The Duggar Family’s first post-scandal interview has already been conducted, and the first part will air tonight on Fox News. Megyn Kelly – arguably one of the better Fox News anchors, although that’s setting the bar pretty low – conducted the interview. After the airing tonight, there will also be a special on Fox News on Friday night with previously unaired segments. My understanding of the interview is that it’s mostly going to be with Michelle and Jim-Bob Duggar, although there will be parts with the kids and maybe even Josh Duggar. As I said in the post on Sunday, I was willing to give Megyn Kelly the benefit of the doubt on all of this and I really hoped she would call out the Duggars for this horror show. Unfortunately, we got a little preview – with Megyn speaking to Howard Kurtz – and if you can make it through this without screaming at the video, you deserve a medal.

Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com

Let’s take this piece by piece.

In Touch Weekly got the police record with a FOIA request. Megyn Kelly says that outright, then continues to make the specious claim that “Josh Duggar’s private personal sealed records have been improperly released. It doesn’t excuse any of his behavior. It’s one thing if the Duggars want to talk about it… [but] the media didn’t even pause.” While there is an issue to be made about the release of Josh Duggar’s VICTIMS’ NAMES, that argument does not extend to Josh Duggar. In Touch didn’t even release the names of his victims – In Touch made the editorial decision (correctly) to redact the names. When the police began investigating Josh’s criminal acts, he was 17 and 18 years old. He was not a minor in the state of Arkansas, unlike his victims. And the reason the investigation was part of the public record was because the investigation was launched years after Josh molested his sisters and after the statute of limitations had passed.

“Feasting on this carcass.” The liberal media, you see, is so gleeful to take down a family of conservative Christians that no one is asking why the Arkansas police released the information. They released the information because of In Touch’s FOIA request. In Touch made the FOIA request because they got a tip – likely from another conservative Christian with close ties to the Duggars and their community – that something was not right about Josh Duggar.

The conservative politicians posing with Josh Duggar. If the “liberal media” is going to town on certain politicians, it’s because those politicians openly courted Josh Duggar’s support specifically. Megyn tried to play it off like conservative politicians are being targeted because they posed with “some random member of the family.” Nope. They posed with Josh specifically, because he was director of an ultra-conservative, anti-gay, anti-reproductive-rights political group. I don’t believe it’s bad journalism to ask those politicians how they feel about Josh Duggar right now. Some of them (Huckabee) STILL support Josh. Some of them (Santorum) are disgusted. I’d still like to know what Scott Walker, Ted Cruz and many more have to say.

“Bill Clinton was accused of rape.” Yes, honey. Because that’s exactly the same thing. Because if Bill Clinton was accused of it at some point, that means Josh Duggar should totally be forgiven for molesting five children over the course of two years (that we know of).

“Nothing is off limits.” Except a lot was off limits. Megyn says: “I don’t plan on getting into the specific details about what was done because my understanding is the victims don’t want to discuss that either.”

This is going to be an utter disaster. Or worse, it’s going to be a Fox News advertisement for the Duggar Cult.

Here are more photos of Kim Kardashian out and about in NYC this week. Now that we know she’s pregnant, I can really see it. Before this week, I just assumed she had been gaining some weight because of the fertility treatments, but you can already see that her body is changing. She’s apparently three months along and due in December. And Kim is telling people that just like her last pregnancy, she’s sick as a dog.

Pregnant Kim Kardashian couldn’t be more excited to be expecting again — except for the fact that she’s suffering from “really bad” all-day sickness. The E! reality star and her husband, Kanye West, made their first red carpet appearance together at the 2015 CFDA Fashion Awards in New York City on Monday, June 1, since announcing they’re expecting baby No. 2, and Kardashian tells Us Weekly she hasn’t been feeling the best.

“To be honest, I’ve had really bad morning sickness, day sickness, night sickness — I can barely get out of bed,” Kris Jenner’s daughter tells Us. “It’s a very different type of pregnancy from my first one, but I’m so grateful to be pregnant when we didn’t even think it was going to happen for us [so] I don’t care how sick I am.”

North West’s mom, who presented Instagram founder Kevin Systrom with the CFDA Media Award at the fete, said feeling like “s—t” is “so worth it” because she couldn’t be more “grateful” to expand her brood.

[From Us Weekly]

One of the reasons many of us thought Kim would opt for surrogacy this time around was because she legitimately had a very difficult, uncomfortable pregnancy with North. I guess she and Kanye really wanted to have another baby and to do it this way. Eh, more power to them. And I do feel sorry for her considering how sick she is. It feels like she’s going to have another difficult pregnancy.

There are also significant rumors that Kim is expecting twins – the NYDN’s sources say that Kim is waiting to announce until her doctors tell her that it’s all good. Plus, she’s waiting until Caitlyn stops stealing her thunder. But a different source tells People Magazine that Kim is NOT expecting twins but this pregnancy is the result of Kim and Kanye’s second attempt at IVF.

As for this outfit… trust me, this is probably as good as her style is going to get this year. Four months from now, we’re going to look back at this dress and think, “How quaint.” You can even see that she’s wearing Spanx! Also: when Kim pulls her hair back like that, she looks like she’s trying to morph into Kris Jenner.

Here’s a photo of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson with their son, Chester, at a 2011 film premiere. Nowadays, Chester calls himself “Chet Haze” and believes that he’s a frat-boy rapper. You can here one of Chet’s songs here, but you might laugh. A lot.

We usually ignore Chet’s antics (there was a weird fight with Howard Stern not too long ago). But Chet has gotten into some trouble for dropping the n-word on his Instagram page. (Unfortunately, he deleted his account as I was typing this story, so there will be minimal photos to illustrate.) Chet’s pretty upset that people are calling him out for using the word, which he believes is “a beautiful thing.” Here’s his defense:

“If I say the word n**** I say it amongst people I love and who love me. If I say “f*** yall hatin a** n*****” it’s because that’s really how I felt at the time. And I don’t accept society getting to decide what ANYBODY can or can’t say. That’s something we call FREE SPEECH. Now I understand the older generation who grew up in the Jim Crowe era might have strong feelings against this. And that’s understandable.

“But what I’m saying is this is 2015 … We have reached a point where the word can no longer have a negative connotation if we so choose. And who is to say only black people can use it? The way I see it, it’s a word that unifies the culture of HIP-HOP across ALL RACES, which is actually kind of a beautiful thing. It’s a word that can be used out of camaraderie and love, not just exclusively for black people. What’s the point in putting all these built up ‘rules’ about it. It’s time to let go. You can hate me or love me for it, but can’t nobody tell me what I can or can’t say. It’s got nothing to do with trying to be a thug. It’s about the culture of the music … Some people will get it, some people won’t. Either way, Ima keep living my life however the f*** I want. ALL LOVE.

“Look, I know the majority of y’all are not gonna get this because the history is still so fresh in our country. But hip hop isn’t about race. It’s about the culture you identify with. And can’t no one tell me what I can’t say.”

[From Chet Haze on Instagram (dead link)]

Ahem. Well, I’m pretty sure Chet has no idea what he’s talking about. He grew up wealthy and privileged beyond belief. Yet Chet feels like he identifies enough with rap culture that he should be able to drop the n-word without being called out. He thinks everyone should “let go” of the n-word’s connotations because he really wants to say it. He’s so bothered by these “built-up rules” about the n-word. Won’t you let Chet Haze be great?

I didn’t even want to draw attention to Chet Haze, but he’s pulling an Iggy Azalea. Since she got called out big time for her appropriation, Chet also shouldn’t get away with claiming a deep devotion to hip-hop culture without some understanding. He’s acting dismissive like Iggy and needs to take a few lessons from Q-Tip the Abstract. Chet should also realize that his free speech claim runs both ways. People are free to criticize Chet for the stupid stuff that comes out of his mouth.

Kendall Jenner gave a joint interview with little sister Kylie in the Sunday Times. I talked yesterday about the excerpts involving Kylie and Kendall’s fear of growing older (“old” meaning 20+). There were also some tidbits about how Kendall’s grown disillusioned with social media and wanted to throw her phone into the wall.

Thanks to Gawker, some new excerpts surfaced. In an interesting move, Kendall completely shut down the journo’s questions about body image. This was a wise tactic considering the Kardashians’ plastic surgery addiction. Kendall couldn’t say much without dragging her sisters, intentionally or not. Kendall also discusses exactly why she doesn’t like the internet anymore. It doesn’t have to do with bullying. Kendall wants to experience life without being glued to a phone (like Kylie). Kendall’s description of events is very surreal, and there’s some stuff about feminism too:

Why she had her internet epiphany: “We had a two-hour drive from the airport to where we were staying, and I’d left my phone in my bag, so I didn’t touch it the whole way. I looked out the window at everything, and I saw people who live in huts and have dogs that were, like, withering away. And all their food, meat, was hanging in front of their house. It was very sad. Then we pulled up to this amazing house we were staying at, and I looked over and Kylie was on her phone the whole time and didn’t see one thing that I saw.”

Is she a feminist? “I don’t know much about it, so I can’t really speak on it. I get what you’re saying, but I’m not gonna say much because I’d like to be more educated.”

[From The Sunday Times]

Should we give Kendall any credit for straight-up admitting she doesn’t understand
feminism? She wants to be more educated, which is difficult in the Kardashian family (where looks, not books mean everything). That’s a huge step. Kendall’s not rejecting feminism because she misinterpreted the meaning (like Evangeline Lilly, Kaley Cuoco, Mel B, or Shailene Woodley). Kendall knows she doesn’t get it, and she doesn’t want to make dumb statements. I’ll give her some points for that awareness.

A couple of weeks ago, I saw Laverne Cox speak as part of her college tour. She was impressive on so many levels. Laverne spoke fast and had so much to say about gender identity, about trans rights, and about the depressing statistics about violence and murder against trans people. She called then-Bruce sincere and human with a “desire to change the world“. Laverne also urged us, and the media, to focus on the “hearts, souls, emotions and… experiences” of trans people, and not the specifics around surgery and body parts.

Now that we’ve met Caitlyn on the cover of Vanity Fair, Laverne has penned a thoughtful essay about what this means to the trans community, and to those people who are still struggling. She urges us not to focus on beauty and instead to move toward acceptance. Her essay is long and I’ll break it down a little here. I recommend that you read the original which reminded me so much of her talk. I could listen to her for hours. Here’s some of what she wrote and the headers are in my words.

We should go beyond the superficial with trans people
Yes, Caitlyn looks amazing and is beautiful but what I think is most beautiful about her is her heart and soul, the ways she has allowed the world into her vulnerabilities. The love and devotion she has for her family and that they have for her. Her courage to move past denial into her truth so publicly. These things are beyond beautiful to me.

Trans people shouldn’t have to be attractive to be respected
A year ago when my Time magazine cover came out I saw posts from many trans folks saying that I am “drop dead gorgeous” and that that doesn’t represent most trans people. (It was news to me that I am drop dead gorgeous but I’ll certainly take it). But what I think they meant is that in certain lighting, at certain angles I am able to embody certain cisnormative beauty standards. Now, there are many trans folks because of genetics and/or lack of material access who will never be able to embody these standards. More importantly many trans folks don’t want to embody them and we shouldn’t have to to be seen as ourselves and respected as ourselves.

We need more media representation of trans folks
I have always been aware that I can never represent all trans people. No one or two or three trans people can. This is why we need diverse media representations of trans folks to multiply trans narratives in the media and depict our beautiful diversities. I started #TransIsBeautiful as a way to celebrate all those things that make trans folks uniquely trans, those things that don’t necessarily align with cisnormative beauty standards.

We have to lift up all trans people
Most trans folks don’t have the privileges Caitlyn and I have now have. It is those trans folks we must continue to lift up, get them access to healthcare, jobs, housing, safe streets, safe schools and homes for our young people. We must lift up the stories of those most at risk, statistically trans people of color who are poor and working class. I have hoped over the past few years that the incredible love I have received from the public can translate to the lives of all trans folks. Trans folks of all races, gender expressions, ability, sexual orientations, classes, immigration status, employment status, transition status, genital status etc.. I hope, as I know Caitlyn does, that the love she is receiving can translate into changing hearts and minds about who all trans people are as well as shifting public policies to fully support the lives and well being of all of us.

[From Laverne Cox on Tumblr]

That was so powerful, but I didn’t expect anything less from her. Read the first quoted paragraph again. (Or for the first time.) For those of you criticizing Caitlyn and saying that Bruce was a horrible absent father, does that take away from how groundbreaking and meaningful it is for her to earn the cover of Vanity Fair? I don’t think it does. It took Caitlyn her whole lifetime to be able to be herself, and there’s nothing wrong with celebrating that while acknowledging that she’s flawed. As Laverne Cox said in her speech, “we are not what we do” and we are not the worst thing we’ve ever done. (The context is that during Q&A a future public defender asked her for words of wisdom. Laverne quoted civil rights attorney William Kunstler, who believed that everyone deserved a defense.)

In terms of cisnormative beauty, many transgender people have brought this up when it comes to the media narrative around Caitlyn. Vocactiv has an eye-opening editorial about this issue, with a conclusion from the director of Transgender Media at GLAAD, Nick Adams “We have to get to a place where how a transgender person looks — whether they’re visibly transgender or whether or not they meet some conventional standard of masculinity and femininity as defined by our culture — is not the criteria upon which they receive acceptance and support.”

As for how we can support trans people with public policy, Laverne gave an example of a Catholic high school in New York city in which the students successfully lobbied to have some gender neutral bathrooms. (Here’s more on how gender neutral bathrooms can help with access and acceptance for trans people. Many schools are switching “family” bathrooms to the more inclusive “gender neutral”.)

Laverne also reminded us that when we don’t value trans lives “the price can be deadly.” The self-reported attempted suicide rate among trans people is over 40%. So yes, I do celebrate Caitlyn on the cover of Vanity Fair, and I hope to see more trans celebrities, media personalities and neighbors.

Here’s a new video that Vanity Fair released from behind the scenes in which Caitlyn gives a shout out to Laverne Cox, among other pioneers.

I’m so happy after such a long struggle to be living my true self. Welcome to the world Caitlyn. Can’t wait for you to get to know her/me.
