Stalking the stalkers: Gossip Girl Lainey protects the red carpet

We were side-by-side with Elaine Lui on the red carpet this weekend when the Gossip Girl witnessed a smoker commit festival blasphemy by ashing and stomping out her cigarette on the red carpet. After whispering a how-dare-she comment to her cameraman, Lainey asked the woman to butt out elsewhere. We’re with you, Lainey. Red carpet arrivals are super-stressful for ushers and staff, but no starlet wants a cigarette butt stuck to the train of her designer dress—or her heels, for that matter.—Melita Kuburas
