Heterosexual crushes are healthy and normal; what else is a bromance, anyway?

So I'm developing quite a girl-crush on Michelle Williams, and I just thought the world should be aware. Yes, I watched "Dawson's Creek," and yes, I wanted both her dress and her life when she was with Heath Ledger and they went to the Oscars together.

But since his death, she seems to be coping nicely and raising their daughter Matilda pretty lovingly - how fast Matilda has grown up has really thrown me off; here's them in 2009.


But anyway, Williams is starring in a movie with Ryan Gosling way later this year, "Blue Valentine," and is showing up to events looking like this (while promoting the film at Cannes Film Festival this past week):


And this (at the amFAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala, also at Cannes):


I'd like that haircut, those dresses and shoes and the affectionate embrace she seems to be sharing with Gosling, please (they're not dating, but still). Plus, the kind of strength to go through what happened with Ledger and keep on living is also pretty respectable. Props, lady. Especially when hot messes like Lindsay Lohan are still on the loose. Bitch is crazy! Williams is not. It's refreshing, I promise.

Clothez and thangz.

This week has been a pretty solid one when it comes to stupid clothes that fill my heart with joy. First there was the Screen Actors Guild Awards this past weekend, then Paris Fashion Week, then a Calvin Klein-sponsored event. Because it's snowing outside and I have nothing better to do, here are some thoughts - rapidly, so I can go back to reading my new issue of Nylon that just came in the mail.

The kids from "The Vampire Diaries" are on the cover. Meh.


Anyway, good and bad outfits, yay!

SCREEN ACTORS GUILD AWARDS

Diane Kruger: Basically, one of the best dresses I've ever seen, totally reminiscent of what Michelle Williams wore to the Oscars with Heath Ledger back in 2006. Such a pretty color, even though I'm normally anti-yellow, and she's just poised enough to pull it off.


Marion Cotillard: I don't know, she could wear a fucking Hefty bag covered in poo and I'd probably like it, so ... take that as you will.


Drew Barrymore: I don't even understand the point of this dress, and it basically just makes me think she's wearing a huge lampshade or something. But like, bluer and uglier.


PARIS FASHION WEEK

Dita Von Teese: Pulls off looking like a horrifying dominatrix. Impressive.


Amber Rose: I'm probably cursing the universe by hating the one time Amber Rose isn't inappropriately nude, but come on, if you're going to fucking wear clothes, DON'T MAKE THEM LOOK LIKE THIS.


LA ARTS MONTH RECEPTION, ORGANIZED BY CALVIN KLEIN

Kate Bosworth: Every time I see her, I want to strap her in before a plate of pasta and force her to eat some fucking carbs. This picture is no exception.


Jared Leto: Basically has been sucking from the fountain of youth, cuz the guy is pushing 40 (he's 38) and I'm pretty sure he looks hot as fuck. Like, yes, the shiny blazer is ugly, and yes, the scarf is unnecessary, AND YES, I'LL GIVE YOU THAT HE'S WEARING TOO MUCH GEL, but still. Look at that face! So delightful.


And lastly, Ali Larter and Milla Jovovich: Why has Ali Larter paired that old-lady-goes-to-a-strip-club-in-Florida outfit with clunky black boots, and why is Milla Jovovich wearing formal hot shorts with like a billion accessories and that garish Forever 21 belt? Where's my copy of Nylon? Anything has to be better to look at then this.

Celeb pairings, romantic and otherwise.

So in case you didn't know, one is the loneliest number. Who would have guessed? Look, it's just a rule: Things are always better in a pair. See, here's a Halloween-themed indication of this:


Yup, that's Linus and Sally. It's the Great Pumpkin, BITCHES.

Anyway, here are my favorite celebrity duos this week. Reasons vary, obvi.

1. Michelle Williams and daughter Matilda both look cute as hell while traipsing around New York City.


This makes me miss Heath Ledger. Boo to prescription drugs and ...

2. ... Yeah, that was a poor segue into a post about Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, but MK was supposedly having a relationship with Ledger when he died, so there you go. Anyway, the twins looked vaguely matronly (no surprise there) when launching their new juniors' line, Olsenboye, with JC Penney earlier this week.


Yes, them looking old while launching a line for teens is an awkward juxtaposition, but cheap clothes are nice, and Olsenboye will definitely be less obnoxious than Elizabeth and James, which is so expensive it makes my heart weep.

3. Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner are dating, as evidenced by their both attending a hockey game together and going out to dinner this week. I only giggle at this because 1. Swift kind of looks possessed in the picture below ...


... and because 2. the idea of having sex with someone who is named the same thing as you confuses me. Wouldn't it be awkward to keep hearing the same name thrown out there/moaned back and forth? OK, they're teenagers, I'm creepy, whatever.

4. Lastly, I despise Kobe Bryant because he's a cocky bastard. However, I revel in this photo because his wife looks fat as they are leaving to attend some party after the Lakers' win over the Clippers earlier this week.


Trick what are those thighs? DELIGHTFUL. It's the small things that bring me joy, really.
