Jamie McCarthyGetty Images Megan Fox made the ultimate commitment to her monochrome look by dying her hair a platinum pink hue. Last night in New York City, the actress and fiancé Machine Gun Kelly attended the premiere for his new Hulu documentary, Life in Pink. The couple dressed accordingly. Fox opted for pink-on-pink-on-pink. Besides her

When Jessica Matten sits down at a bustling Mediterranean coffee shop in Midtown, she passes me a bundle of sage by way of welcome. “I know,” she says, hiding neither her wince nor her smile. “I’m so traditional.” She’s here with a game plan, an ulterior motive, one that’s neither malicious nor well-hidden. If the

Wait…that’s not Dolores. When Evan Rachel Wood appears in Westworld season 4, she’s not playing her gun-slinging prairie girl-gone-rogue. (ICYMI, that woman—spoiler alert—perished at the end of season 3…or so we think.) This time, Wood plays Christina, a new character who couldn’t be any more different than her last. And it’s not just because her

Spoilers below. Is anyone ever really dead on Westworld? When it comes to hosts, no one’s gone for too long, especially after last season’s constant recycling of “pearls” and consciousnesses. But the show seemingly had us fooled when one character died and disappeared for a whole season—surely that meant he was a goner, right? Not

Though the first season of The Summer I Turned Pretty was only just released, it’s already been renewed for a second season by Amazon Prime. It’s based on a book of the same name by Jenny Han, who is well-known as the author of To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before. She also wrote the

On Saturday, Olivia Rodrigo used her considerable platform to share her honest thoughts about the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade in their ruling this week. The musical artist was on stage at the Glastonbury Festival in the U.K. when she got raw about her real feelings about the right to an abortion ending at

Jennifer Lopez is back with another summer mood board-worthy street style look. Yesterday, the singer stepped out in Los Angeles wearing a backless black sundress with an airy skirt and a tight bodice, which also featured a halter neckline and a deep-V cut. She paired the dress with minimal accessories, opting for black heels, stud

Though I’m only 24 years old, if I’m being honest, there are very few reasons I would leave my apartment after 10 P.M. on a work night. A lover? Probably not. A slice of New York City pizza? Maybe. Secret Madonna performance for Pride Month? C’mon, sign me up! So when a co-worker slid into

Arconiacs, best set aside a few hours for a true-crime binge: Only Murders in the Building season 2 has finally arrived on Hulu. While it seems our favorite amateur investigators have avoided prison up to this point, that doesn’t mean they’re off the hook for Bunny’s murder. Not only is an investigation circling, but a

While most eyes were on celeb transformations for the 2022 Met Gala, behind the scenes, our government was fashioning a different kind of change. In leaked documents written by Justice Samuel Alito and obtained by Politico, the U.S. Supreme Court reportedly voted to renege on its trailblazing Roe v. Wade decision. The draft opinion rebukes

The Hamptons is a vacation spot so mythologized—in film, in music, and in literature—that it’s tempting to think of the destination as an A-lister’s Neverland. And it’s true, like clockwork, the jet-set crowd flocks to Long Island’s East End every summer in search of sun and a good time, often in the form of rejuvenating

Greyson Chance thinks he hasn’t nailed his Cyndi Lauper impression quite yet, but that doesn’t stop him from giving her signature Queens accent a try. “Did you get sued?’” the singer-songwriter says with an almost Snatch Game-worthy attempt. “Then why do you give a fuck?” The quote is from one of his many conversations with

Taylor Swift has released “Carolina,” a new original song she penned for the upcoming film Where the Crawdads Sing. Produced by her Folklore collaborator Aaron Dessner of The National, the dark and eerie folk track echoes the mystery and drama of the highly anticipated book-to-screen adaptation.

David MadisonGetty Images As a little girl, soccer star Briana Scurry dreamed of going to the Olympics. When she made the U.S. Women’s National Team alongside greats like Mia Hamm and Brandi Chastain, that dream came true. Scurry, the team’s goalie, helped USWNT win gold at the Atlanta Games, the first time women’s soccer was

Shortly after a fan spotted Joe Alwyn and Taylor Swift dining together in New York City with a friend, the very private couple of five and a half years was photographed by paparazzi publicly making out in the picturesque Bahamas water while on vacation. TMZ ran the initial photos and details, reporting that the two

Spoilers below. Ben Hargreeves is worthy of adoration in all his myriad forms, but it’d be dishonest to say season 3 of The Umbrella Academy felt whole without the OG. The once and future Ben (Justin H. Min) was often the kindest and most highly regarded of the Hargreeves children; after all, it was his

The highly-anticipated, highly-hyped Barbie film is currently shooting, and the first photos from set have emerged of Margot Robbie in character as the iconic Malibu doll. Robbie’s transformation is spot-on with long platinum hair, curtain bangs, and an all-pink ensemble featuring a halter top and pink bell bottom pants adorned with stars on the flare.

The summer solstice is today, and just in time for the official start of the new season, Eva Longoria has posted a striking bikini photo on Instagram. “A little sol never hurt nobody,” she captioned the shot of herself lounging in a yellow two-piece swimsuit by a pool.
