Here is your Open Post for this evening’s Grammy Awards. Our hostess for this year’s Grammys’ Open Post is Taylor Swift and her onesie. Chica loves a onesie. She loves showing off her legs, which is fine because she has great legs. But her love of onesies is exhausting. These are photos of Swifty at Clive Davis’ pre-Grammy gala on Saturday night. The onesie is by Osman Studio, and you can see the runway look here. It was supposed to be a bit slouchy and Taylor had it tailored so it fit like a glove. Eh. It’s literally called a “playsuit.” Oh, and her hair and makeup are pretty bad here.

I actually think tonight’s show is going to mostly be about the music, right? There’s no giant stunt queen performance, unless you count Madonna shilling her new album – she’s reportedly going to open the show, which should be interesting. But other than that, it really feels like this year, people are simply excited for the performances and duets and such. Swifty isn’t performing – she was too busy rehearsing for her tour, so she won’t perform any of her blockbuster hit singles. But she will be there in the audience, dancing and singing along with all the songs.

We’ll have full Grammy fashion coverage starting bright and early tomorrow, plus we’re also going to have full BAFTA coverage too. Personally, I’m more excited about the BAFTA coverage, but that’s because I LOATHE Grammy fashion. Still, it will be interesting to see Madonna, I guess? And Beyonce and Jay-Z.

My Twitter is here. Bedhead’s Twitter is here. Celebitchy’s Twitter is here. We’ll tweet some stuff as the red carpet gets going.

Proud mama Jessica Simpson shared a sweet snapshot of her 2-year-old daughter Maxwell via Instagram Saturday.

“Danger Zone,” Simpson captioned the photo of her tot sporting a pair of aviator shades.

In another Instagram image, the mom-of-two is seen in a purple hoodie with a loose french crown braid. In the shot, she shared a shout-out to Mindy Weiss, who planned her wedding to Eric Johnson in July 2014.

“Congrats to one of the most creative ladies I know,” the bare-faced star, 34, captioned the pic. “@mindyweiss I love u!! #babykeepsake.”

Simpson and Johnson are also parents to 19-month-old son Ace, who was recently seen mastering his moonwalk.

It was a united front for Heidi Klum and Seal on Saturday (February 7). The friendly exes were all cheers and smiles while watching their four kids – Leni, 10, Henry, 9, Johan, 8, and Lou, 5 – play soccer in Los Angeles, Calif.

The proud parents were seen cheering on their kids, and also reading storybooks, making a flower crown, and cuddling their cuties on the sidelines.

The Project Runway host, 41, and the musician, 51, were later seen enjoying lunch together with their brood. Co-parenting done right!

Klum has recently returned home to Los Angeles after her romantic getaway with art dealer beau Vito Schnabel, 28, in St Barths.

While the mom-of-four was in France, Seal took them skiing up at Mammoth Mountain.

Reality star Kimora Lee Simmons celebrated her baby shower with family and friends on Saturday (February 7).

And it was nothing but blue booties and balloons for the 39-year-old model and businesswoman, according to her 15-year-old daughter Ming Lee Simmons.

“IT’S A BOY,” the teen Instagrammed while posing with some gal pals. In another sweet snapshot, Ming Lee is seen kissing her mother’s cheek. “#itsaboy #babyleissner,” she confirms her sibling’s gender once again.

Kimora Lee’s ex-husband Russell Simmons and her friend Garcelle Beauvais were also in attendance.

“Fun afternoon celebrating @officialkimora and Tim’s #babyshower,” Beauvais Instagrammed the group shot. “It’s a new Day exhusband @unclerush and new husband showing love & support #love#congrats.”

Last October, news broke that Kimora Lee was expecting baby No. 4. It will be her first child with husband Tim Leissner whom she wed in a secret ceremony almost one year ago.

Looking every bit the modern family, we spotted Kimora Lee and her new husband vacationing with her ex-husband and their kids in St. Barths over the Christmas holidays.

Kimora Lee and Tim’s son will join daughters Ming Lee and Aoki Lee, 12, from her marriage to Russell Simmons, and her 5-year-old son Kenzo from her former relationship with actor Djimon Hounsou.

Here are some photos of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West out on Saturday for the pre-Grammy brunch hosted by Roc Nation. Kanye will perform at tonight’s Grammys (two performances, actually) and so he’s doing some of the pre-Grammy events with his wife in tow. I don’t know what to say about Kim Kardashian here. Sigh…

First of all, it’s JUST BRUNCH. There’s no need to pour yourself into this ensemble. Kim could have worn a simple dress or even (gasp!) a nice pants-and-blouse ensemble. Instead, she wore what looked like a custom two-piece that really doesn’t even fit her. She’s uncomfortable, she’s adjusting it constantly and she had to suck in her stomach the entire time. And even then, her “size 2” was still spilling out. As for Kanye… dude, look at the effort Kim put into her look. And that’s what you’re wearing?!

Something nice: Kim just got a haircut a few days ago, and by that I mean she had her extensions taken out and she got a trim. I genuinely think her hair looks really good here. She gets too weighed down by hair pieces and extensions and this shorter hair makes her look younger.

Uncomfortable question: is Kim Kardashian’s eagle necklace the Reichsadler of Nazi Germany?

Here are some photos of Benedict Cumberbatch out in London on Friday and Saturday nights. Friday night was Harvey Weinstein’s annual pre-BAFTA dinner for all of BAFTA and Oscar-nominated people, plus assorted hangers-on (that’s the photo above). Surprisingly, it seems Benedict once again went solo to this event. Huh. The Saturday night event was a BAFTA nominee thing held at Kensington Palace, and once again, Bendy went solo. That makes THREE pre-BAFTA events without Sophie Hunter, his baby-mama fiancée? That’s interesting. Is there trouble in shotgun-marriage paradise so soon? Probably not. Sophie’s probably super-busy, you guys. She’s planning the wedding and…? Who knows? I’m guessing she’ll attend the BAFTAs with Bendy tonight.

As for the Oscars in two weeks, we’re finally getting some confirmations on the presenters! Benedict is scheduled to present, which should be interesting. Other confirmed presenters: all the acting winners from last year, including OUR QUEENS Lupita Nyong’o and Cate Blanchett. We’re also getting Marion Cotillard, Reese Witherspoon and Oprah Winfrey. I hope this list grows and grows. We need more fashion p0rn, people!

A photo of Bendy at the KP event:

I’m also including photos of Bendy out in London on Sunday, filming the Sherlock Christmas special. Still wearing Victorian garb. I have mixed feelings about this, I really do. I mean, setting this in the late 1800s is truer to Arthur Conan Doyle’s canon more than the actual show, but still, how are they even going to explain this?! Bendy can really pull off period costume though. If anything, he looks more natural in Victorian clothing than in modern clothing.

I updated Friday’s Brian Williams story to reflect some of the late-afternoon news about his situation at NBC News. Williams has been NBC’s golden goose for a long time – he’s popular with advertisers, he’s a company man, he supports NBC’s talent and their corporate suits. He gets paid handsomely for it too ($10 million a year). Which might be why NBC News had no idea how to proceed with the clusterwhoops that has unraveled over the past week. On Friday, NBC News’ president Deborah Turness issued a public statement saying that Williams had apologized to NBC corporate and the NBC News staffers for bringing so much heat to the news division. Turness also said that NBC would be investigating Williams, in what I’m assuming will be an in-house OMG-how-many-times-has-he-lied hush-hush investigation. It’s also being said that NBC has told Williams to cool it with any outside appearances (like being a guest on The Daily Show or The Tonight Show) until further notice.

Meanwhile, the knives are out. And it’s not just limited to NBC’s in-house investigation either. People – mostly conservative bloggers, media watchdog groups and anyone in News Corp – are pouring over every public statement Williams has ever made, in interviews, chat show appearances, etc. There are already some problems. People have been Truth-Squading the hell out of Williams’ various stories about what went down in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. Williams told several different versions of what sounds like a completely fabricated story about a man committing suicide inside the Superdome. Williams also told stories of armed gangs running amok during Katrina, when those stories were just… really conflated, if not totally false.

Page Six also ran a series of stories questioning the authenticity of several other anecdotes from Williams’ TV appearances. Like, he claimed he left a dying friend’s bedside to cover the death of Princess Diana. He also claimed that as a teenage volunteer fireman, he rescued either one puppy or two puppies – the number of puppies changes every time he tells the story. #Wasthereevenonepuppy #BrianWilliamsMisremembersPuppies

And finally, as the clusterwhoops grows each passing day, Williams has finally realized (for once) that he should not be the story. He issued a statement on NBCNews.com on Saturday saying that “it has become painfully apparent to me that I am presently too much a part of the news, due to my actions.” He’s says: “I have decided to take myself off of my daily broadcast for the next several days, and Lester Holt has kindly agreed to sit in for me to allow us to adequately deal with this issue. Upon my return, I will continue my career-long effort to be worthy of the trust of those who place their trust in us.” Ooooh, Lester Holt. I LOVE LESTER HOLT. If they do fire Williams, Lester Holt should get the anchor position. I’ve always had Holt on the top of my list of Matt Lauer replacements for the Today Show, but having Holt permanently replace Williams doesn’t sound too bad.

Yesterday, while on the Pacific Coast Highway, Bruce Jenner rear-ended a mid size Lexus sedan that was either slowing to stop at a red light or had slowed down unexpectedly, reports vary. Bruce was driving a Cadillac Escalade and hauling an ATV behind it. According to law enforcement, The ATV may have contributed to the crash by making it harder for Bruce to stop in time. After Bruce hit the sedan, it was pushed out into oncoming traffic and was hit again, killing the driver, an elderly woman. Another passenger in the sedan seemed unharmed. There were other injuries sustained among the people in the vehicle, a Hummer, that hit the sedan a second time. Bruce was reportedly being chased by five paparazzi at the time, although it is unclear if that contributed to the crash, and was sober. He passed a field sobriety test and volunteered to have blood taken at a hospital. TMZ has more on this sad situation along with photos of the accident in progress. I’m quoting the NY Post here because they have a clearer timeline and direct quotes from law enforcement:

Bruce Jenner rear-ended a car Saturday, causing an accident that killed a woman motorist.
Seven other people were injured in the accident, which happened shortly after noon on the Pacific Coast Highway near its intersection with Corral Canyon Road.

Jenner’s dark blue Cadillac Escalade was towing a dune buggy in a trailer when he rear-ended a white Lexus sedan being driven by an ­elderly woman.

The Lexus spun into oncoming traffic and smashed head-on into a black Hummer. The impact of the horrifying collision killed the woman, sources said.

Officers are investigating why the Lexus stopped or slowed in front of Jenner. They said its driver may have slowed because of the traffic signal at the nearby intersection.

Five paparazzi were following Jenner’s car. Sheriff’s officers denied reports that the photographers were chasing Jenner, and said the former Olympic gold medalist had been taking no evasive action to avoid them…

Jenner, 65, did not appear injured. “He was up walking around, and he returned to his car once he realized the severity of the accident,” Picerno told The Post.

Jenner lives about two miles from the scene. Another witness said Jenner texted his son, Brody, who showed up with his girlfriend as cops questioned his father.

The Olympic gold medalist passed a field sobriety test that required him to walk a straight line and touch his nose. He also submitted a blood sample.

“He did not appear intoxicated or under the influence of anything,” said Sgt. Philip Brooks of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.

The survivors’ injuries ranged from slight to moderate, sources said. A rescue helicopter took one victim to a hospital.

Three children were passengers in the Hummer, including one who is a month old. They were treated at the scene for minor injuries.

Jenner’s trailor may have been a factor. “You have think all that weight from the [Jenner] SUV and the trailer — it’s going to give quite a push when it hits from the rear,” Brooks said.

“The paparazzi were following him but we have no indication he was being chased. Being a celebrity, he is used to that,” the sergeant said.

There’s more in the Post, including some sad details I didn’t want to repeat. Our thoughts go out to the victim’s family. If more information comes out, we will update this story.

Johnny Depp already married Amber Heard in an intimate home ceremony last week, but that didn’t stop this weekend’s island party. Johnny invited many of his rock ‘n’ roll buddies to a second wedding celebration at his Bahamas getaway. All is well right now in Scarfland. Amber’s willing to put up with Johnny’s career slump and midlife crisis, which is fine. She has her work cut out for her, and I don’t envy her fate in the press.

Something is amiss in all the press coverage of the marriage. A Depp source keeps phoning up People to spill details. This source might be the same one who called Amber a “free spirit“ because now she’s described as a “free thinker.” What does that even mean? I don’t know. Whether or not Johnny has give his blessing to this source, a lot of shade’s being tossed in the direction of Vanessa Paradis:

“[Amber] is a free thinker,” a longtime friend of Depp’s tells People. “Her presence has changed his life.”

Depp, 51, and Heard, 28, got engaged in 2012 after heating up the screen as on-screen lovers in the Hunter S. Thompson adaptation a year earlier.

The key to their lasting romance, an entertainment source says, is that being with Heard is so different from Depp’s past relationships.

“Amber is a woman who can survive just fine without him,” the source tells People. “She is not needy. He likes that.”

[From People]

I can buy the part about how Amber “can survive just fine” without Johnny, mostly because he seems like the insecure one in this relationship. I still don’t know what she sees in him beyond the obvious (status and money) that he has to offer.

What I don’t accept is the shade being thrown towards Vanessa, who is a successful singer and actress without Johnny’s influence. I don’t think Johnny’s even the one behind this smear campaign. Scarfy can barely form a complete sentence onstage. He doesn’t have the energy to trash anyone, especially the mother of his children. People’s source is consistent and likely a member of Johnny’s entourage, but it’s not Johnny himself.

The media keeps trying to say Vanessa’s really upset about Johnny’s romances and boozy behavior, and I doubt she cares at all. Vanessa put up with Scarfmonster for over a decade, and she’s over it. There’s also the possibility that someone’s implicity trashing Wino Forever, but that’s a stretch.

The NAACP Image Awards, also known as “the Black Oscars” were held Friday evening in Pasadena. Selma won big in several categories, including Best Picture and Best Actor (for David Oyelowo’s performance). Black-ish was the big winner for TV Comedy, plus Anthony Anderson and Tracee Ellis Ross (the two leads) took home acting awards. Taraji P. Henson took home two awards for being awesome and Viola Davis won for TV Drama actress and she didn’t even come to the show! You can see the full list of winners, plus a recap of some of the notable speeches here at E!. I have to say, in all my years of covering the fashion from the Image Awards, this was one of the best years ever. People really made an effort this year and it showed.

Two of the biggest names and biggest fashion standouts: Gabrielle Union and Kerry Washington! Gabby wore this pink Gauri & Nainika, which is so over-the-top that I went from hate to love pretty quickly. Pink was a really popular color for this event, so she was on-trend too. Kerry’s dress is Zuhair Murad. Not her best but not her worst either. I feel like she rarely wears red?

Gugu Mbatha-Raw in Burberry. I really do love her and I think she’s absolutely drop-dead gorgeous, and I like that she’s representing the UK with Burberry. But this was not my favorite. It looks like a quilt. Better luck next time, girl! Something nice: her face is flawless and her styling is on-point.

Taraji P. Henson in Georges Chakra. This isn’t my favorite, but I love her. She always looks like she’s having the best time in whatever she’s wearing. It’s a quality that elevates even blah styles.

Laverne Cox in Gustavo Cadile. I know what she was going for but I’m not feeling it. The skirt is too much, and it feels like a bustle is about to happen. Pretty color though.

Ava Duvernay wore a custom-designed gown by Ashi Studio. It’s a mullet dress! It’s kind of cool though – if you’re going to do a mullet dress, this is the way to do it.

Carmen Ejogo in Solace London. She played Coretta Scott King in Selma and let me tell you, her beauty took my breath away in that film. She was SO pretty. Seeing her in modern clothes bugs me a little, and maybe that’s my issue. I feel the same way about the women of Mad Men – they look so wonderful in those vintage styles, I kind of wonder why they don’t look for similar red carpet clothes.

Uzo Aduba in this Zac Posen was one of my favorites from the event. I usually think Posen is so overworked, like he just needs to calm down and EDIT. But this is beautiful and she looks like a princess.
