Emma Stone lives in New York, but she was seemingly in town this week just for a quick promotional blitz, and then she jetted off? somewhere? Maybe to London, because the Cruella sequel is in pre-production. (Incidentally, I loved the first Cruella film and I?m so glad a sequel is coming.) Emma appeared on Good Morning America, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and probably several other shows. I?ve never been crazy about Emma?s style, but I really love her sad-beige outfit in these photos. It?s very ?70s, very Ralph Lauren. The tuxedo dress is meh, and her airport outfit looks like my winter uniform, minus the red loafers.
Emma?s still talking about Poor Things, for which she?s nominated as an actress and producer. This is also Oscar-campaigning for her, by the way. Poor Things made a surge at just the right moment. I don?t know if her late surge will translate into any Oscar statues though. While Emma is beloved by Oscar voters, I think the Best Actress Oscar is Lily Gladstone?s to lose. Now, could I see a situation where Emma gets a surprise win because Lily and Sandra Huller split the vote? Perhaps. But Emma is not ?campaigning? like a frontrunner, she?s just hustling to promote the movie in general, which is probably the smartest way to campaign.
Meanwhile, Emma did a cute Jeopardy thing on The Late Show. She talked before about how much she wants to appear on regular Jeopardy.

I?m trying not to take this onslaught of celebrities sharing how much they get done between 3-7am personally, but the struggle is real. I understand that people tend to fall into one of two camps, early bird or night owl, and I?m also aware that some studies say there are people who simply need less sleep. I grew up with one of those people, an early bird who functioned on fairly little sleep. My father, like Dolly Parton (first time I?ve uttered that statement), would wake up in the wee hours and pretty much get a whole day?s work in by the time my mother and I, night owls, would be rising for the day. It was hard not to feel like a schlub by comparison. Rachael Ray is among that anointed, productive crowd, as she described to People Mag while chatting up a new partnership with A&E:
Rachael Ray has been cooking up something big.
Ray?s production company, Free Food Studios, formed a partnership with A&E Networks. The deal will bring ?in the kitchen? content and various new shows from both Ray and other talent over the next two years.
The project means Ray, 55, is having a hard time finding a moment to relax ? but she?s just fine with that.
?I?m not really good with downtime. I love to work. I love it. I love to have my brain very active, and if I?m not writing shows, I?m drawing ?foodles? I call them ? recipes on paper ? and writing books and things,? the iconic television cook tells PEOPLE. ?I don?t like being idle. I?ve never been good at it.?
She even jokes that she wrote ?120 pages? of one of her cookbooks on her honeymoon. ?I really am bad at doing nothing!? she says proudly.
Ray says she starts as early as 3 a.m.
?I can?t sleep. I wake up at three or four in the morning, and I just start working because I can?t stop thinking about it,? she says. ?I?m not very good at sleep. I never have been. Even when I was a little girl. My nickname was Little Hoot because I was a night owl.?
Her husband of over 20 years, John Cusimano, prefers a little more R and R. ?He loves to sleep. Unfortunately, once I get up and turn all the lights on and start typing and turn the coffee on, he?s forced to get up pretty early, too,? Ray quips. ?He?s usually up between five and six?The other morning he said, ?You realize it?s three o?clock in the morning, right???
Another main reason Ray likes to stay hyperactive is that she?s always curious about trying out new things and taking on reimagined business ventures.
?I?m always game for anything, and I?m a person who?s over 50 years old. I?m trying to still remain relevant, which is an honor,? she says. ?It?s cool to be over 50 and get new opportunities that keep getting thrown at me.?

Real question here: do Rachael and her husband live in a studio apartment now? Why is she turning on the lights in the bedroom if he?s still sleeping? At the very least she could flip them on for getting dressed and then turn them back off when she?s done. And is the coffee being made in the bedroom?! Why must he be forced to wake up at the same time?! My vehemence stems from empathy!! Rachael may start her day before daybreak, but she should leave the hubby to his own circadian rhythm. Also, is it me or was that quip about her honeymoon a little rough? Not working doesn?t necessarily mean doing nothing. Rachael and John have been married for nearly 20 years, though, so if they butt heads I?m sure they?ll have one of their signature vents and move on. As for her new A&E shows, she?s working on one where she?ll be cooking from her home in Italy. I?m gonna need several boxes of pasta handy when that airs.

| Isla Fisher's tips for making friends: make people laugh, be funny | Added 321 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

I like Isla Fisher. I think she?s adorable, hilarious, and gorgeous. Isla has three children with husband Sascha Baron Cohen and has been acting since 1993. She?s currently co-starring with Josh Gad in Wolf Like Me on Peacock. While promoting Season 2, Isla talks a bit with People about her upbringing. Isla?s dad worked for the United Nations and was stationed all over the world, from Oman where she was born, to Scotland, Australia, and the U.K. Going to a new school every year was tough for Isla, but she figured out how to make new friends. Her secret? Make ?em laugh, make ?em laugh?
As a child, Isla Fisher says she wound up moving constantly, thanks to her fathers job as a banker for the United Nations. Fisher credits the upheaval with becoming a performer. Because I had to learn to make new friends quickly, the thing that I leaned on was humor and storytelling, so it was a natural fit to want to tell stories as an actor, she explains.
Her best tip for fitting into a new environment? I definitely feel like letting your inner idiot out are the best tips for making new friends, she says. You make people laugh and theyre nice to you. Its pretty pretty basic.
[From People]
Hey, you know, drawing people in with humor is a tried-and-true method of attracting people in general. Everyone likes to laugh and if you?re a natural-born performer, then I can totally see how you?d use that talent especially as a kid to ingratiate yourself into otherwise uncomfortable social situations. I?ve never been a particularly funny person, but have always tried to make up for it by attempting to at least be witty (I can pun sometimes!). I also learned early on that validating those who do use (appropriate, non-derogatory) humor to fit in socially was a key integration tool, as well. But most importantly, the older I get, the more I?ve realized that a lot of the time, simply listening to what someone else has to say when asked about themselves goes a long way.

| Calista Flockhart on her weight: 'I just have small bones, and I just am lucky.' | Added 321 days ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Calista Flockhart works so rarely in television or films, it always feels like an event when she?s actually out of the house. She?s now starring in Feud: Capote vs. The Swans, and she plays Lee Radziwell, Jackie Kennedy?s sister. She?s joined by Naomi Watts (Babe Paley), Diane Lane (Slim Keith), Chloe Sevigny (CZ Guest), Molly Ringwald (Joanne Carson) and Demi Moore (Ann Woodward). Calista recently gave a pretty great interview to Maureen Dowd at the NY Times about Feud, about being married to Harrison Ford and about life in general. She also touches on the ?90s sh-t all of the conversations about her short skirts and whether she had an eating disorder. Some highlights:
She would have had lunch with the Swans: ?Maybe once. I felt very sorry for them. Here they are, the toast of New York ? rich, jewels, apartments, houses in the country, houses in Europe. They travel all the time on private planes. They have yachts. They are dictating what is in and what is not. Underneath all that, they were very sad, very lonely and really unhappy women.?
She loved the costumes but her real style isn?t like that: ?I should have lived in the ?60s, for sure?[but] I?m not going to wear a purse that says Gucci all over it, because that just seems strange. I?m also just very frugal. I have some really beautiful designer clothes, but 90 percent of my wardrobe is from Nordstrom. Just what?s comfortable, what works. I have a uniform. I switch from a gray sweater to a black sweater back to the gray sweater to a black sweater.?
On Lee Radziwell: ?Truman Capote recognized that she was living in her sister?s shadow, and he would say things: ?You?re so much prettier. You?re so much smarter. You?re more interesting. You have better style.? She really needed to hear that. I think it made her really love Truman. He was fun, and she confided in him, like they all did.?
On all of the criticism of Ally McBeal?s short skirts: ?I have a lot of distance and perspective, and I?m still incredulous. I cannot believe that I was scrutinized and pursued like that. It was intense and it was unfair.? Ms. Flockhart recalled how casually that wardrobe decision had been made: ?I said to the costume designer: ?It either has to be long or short. It can?t be in the middle, because that doesn?t make my leg look good.? She said, ?OK, let?s go short.? I said, ?Cool, let?s go short.? And then all of a sudden there was this huge short-skirt scandal, which was really fun.?
The conversations about whether she was anorexic: ?I don?t think that would ever happen today. They call it body-shaming now. I haven?t thought about it in a long time, but it?s really not OK to accuse someone of having a disease that a lot of people struggle with. It wasn?t the case, and there was nothing I could do to convince anybody or get out of it. If I had worn a big padded bra, they probably would never have been able to target me in that way. I look back at pictures, and I?m the same then as I am now, and nobody says a word now. I was an easy target, I guess. It was painful, it was complicated. I loved working on ?Ally McBeal,? and it just made it sour. I was very sleep-deprived and I was depressed about it. I did think that it was going to ruin my career. I didn?t think anybody would ever hire me again, because they would just assume I had anorexia, and that would be the end of that.?
She?s always been naturally small: ?I honestly have never been in a situation where I have to watch my weight. My mom is 4-11 now, and she weighed 93 pounds when she was married. Talk about a little tiny elf. I just have small bones, and I just am lucky.?
Why her marriage to Harrison has worked: She mused that one of the reasons that it has worked is because she was ?really content being home? as a full-time mom. ?I didn?t have the same dreams at the time, so we weren?t competing with each other. We?re very independent of each other in some ways and probably incredibly codependent on each other in others.?
Her independence startled him at first. ?It scares him, I think, sometimes. When I first met him, he said, ?You are the most self-sufficient woman in the world, and I don?t know how I feel about that.? I remember I said, ?What are you talking about?? Because I didn?t recognize I was self-sufficient. The other reason it works is, we?re both pretty introverted. We stay home a lot, homebodies, which is nice.?
[From The NY Times]
If you go to the full piece, there?s a cute back-and-forth between Harrison and Calista about how they met (Harrison was interviewed separately). Basically, Harrison caught a glimpse of Calista at the 2002 Golden Globes and he was like ?who is that??? He went over to her and tried to chat her up but she was ambivalent, but they kept talking later in the evening and he asked her out, and they?ve basically been together since their first date. She doesn?t make a big deal about ?oh, I?m the wife of a Hollywood power player,? and it feels like neither of them really revel in that side of things. She?s just happy at home, raising her son and living her life. I also believe her when she says that she?s just naturally small. Some people are just fine-boned. And yes, all of those conversations about her body were gross at the time.
