We have a few photos to celebrate it:

It’s been a quiet week in Natland, but here we have a few tidbits…

The 90th edition of the Academy Awards is being held today.

Natalie’s look on the set of Vox Lux has been one of the most commented topics in social media the last days.

Gotceleb has a new batch of photos of her shooting a scene in the streets of New York:
