One of the few happy gossip stories of 2020 is that Chloe Sevigny is pregnant with her first. Chloe is such an odd duck, really – the indie It Girl who never seemed to grow up, except she sort of did? In recent years, she managed to retain her indie spirit while still making some more corporate career choices here and there. She’s still retained her weird fashion sense too, which is fun and stupid and interesting. Basically, I really like Chloe and I wish her well, and I love that she is pregnant at the age of 45.
These are photos of Chloe out with her boyfriend Sinisa Mackovic in New York this week. I feel like she wearing that cutesy maternity blouse ironically! She’s probably like “oh, I will wear gingham and pastel stripes and ruffles but it will work because people will assume it’s vintage Chanel!” Chloe and Sinisa were actually out shopping at a maternity clothing shop (Seraphine) in these photos. She must be having a ball with this.
Also: can someone who knows how to pronounce Slavic names please spell out how her man’s name is pronounced phonetically? Is it Sin-eesa Mack-oh-VICH? Is it Sin-Eye-Sa? I would genuinely love to know. Also: Sinisa’s PANTS. LOOK AT THEM.

You can spell it like this: Sinisha The last name you spelled right i think. Im slavic but im not sure if i wrote it rightly how to spell
Omg his pants! What bonkers is that? He looks so normal (for lack of a better word) waist up you wouldn’t think he’d be wearing shorts, blue jeans, and acid washed jeans together, not in layers one after the other but one upon the other. I dont know how to even begin to describe it properly.
It is Senesha Mawkowitch. Does this help?
Yes! Thanks.
Originally Siniša Mačković so it’s basically “Senesha Matchkowitch”. Emphasis on the ‘a’ in first name. “A” in last name is also an ‘Aah’ sound not ‘e’.
as a person from the same country as him I can tell you none of the suggestions are right. you spelled it alright. If you wanna do it more fonetically I would use Sinisha Machkovich. However he spells it Sinisa Mackovic so there’s no need.
It’s “vitch” not “witch” at the end. Take it from someone with a slavic name.
Siniša is more likely to be pronounced as Sinisha ( read I as in sin )
Č is read as ch, tch
if it were C would be more like tz
and Ć is I idont know like itja
I would say the stress is on the 1st syllable in both his name and surname. That’s Croatian/ Serbian style. But that doesn’t apply to all Slavic names.
I met her at a club in NYC back in 2012 and she was sooo sweet and fun!! His pants though – what!
He is Croatian, his name is Siniša Mačković.
It’s pronounced Sinisha Machkovich
Sinisa is my brother’s middle name (we’re 50% Croatian). You’re correct. His first name is Adam because my parents are insane.
The stresss is never on the first syllable of any word in Cro/Serb. It’s Sinisha Machkovich, sh like shame, ch like charity, sin like sin, a like in avatar.
The stress is never on the last one. In Siniša the stress would be on the first syllable.
All English spealing people pronounce the end c like a k, in the NBA it’s especially noticable.
He’s Croatian apparently, how cool.
One of my friends is from Croatia and his name is Slaviša, with the stress on the first syllable = Sla. 🙂
“a like in Avatar” – I literally pronounce each “a” in that word differently.
Am I the only one who finds her super annoying and uninteresting? Almost to the Kaiser nemesis level of dislike?
Yes I know I shouldn’t click and read if I don’t like her, but I’m in pure procrastination mode today and so there you go…
you’re not the only one … hard pass
Same here, I do not understand her appeal
I feel the same way!
I used to hate her, then Big Love happened and I love her now.
Same.
And FWIW: I don’t think her dressing like that is ironically at all.
Good for her. It’s possible at 45, especially with a younger man. I remember in college way back in the 90s reading about her being this cool it girl from the downtown scene, and she’s still here. Have liked her work in a few things. They definitely give off hipster couple vibes. Wonder what they’ll name the baby.
i love her pants they look very free people to me
They both look bonkers. That probably is a sign they are meant to be. Also did mr. Machkovich accidentally cut his hair when sleepwalking, that looks like an overused floor mop.
Bwahahaha! They’re cute. They look like they’re having a crazy pants contest with one another.
They totally do! Pretty sure he won!
