Not all Penny Lane coats are created equal. In other words, you can't have too many shearling-trimmed, rich-girl coats in your closet. Take it from Selena Gomez, whose Instagram feed debuted not one, but two versions of the same chic coat trend on February 2.

The day after skipping the 2026 Grammys, Gomez broke her silence with an Instagram Story starring a limited-edition fur coat from Susanna Chow. Her $895 "Dorothy" style began with black suede before matching elongated shearling lined the collar, cuffs, and hip-length hem. (The "Dorothy" is fittingly in Ariana Grande's closet, too, except in boho-chic brown.) Gomez's mirror shot revealed little else about her styling, save for a Valentino handbag and a bubblebath manicure.

Susanna Chow's catalog has a long-time presence in Gomez's closet. Last May, Gomez's collection welcomed the $1,495 "Dorothy Maxi." It's black, just like its shorter sister, except with a suede foundation.

On her main feed, Gomez also shared an 18-photo Instagram post featuring another equally cozy, fur-trimmed coat, this time from Charlotte Simone. The London label has steadily spearheaded the Penny Lane resurgence since 2022, with weekly, small-scale drops that sell out almost as fast as you can say Almost Famous.

You may recognize the name from the coat racks of Taylor Swift, Charli xcx, Emily Ratajkowski, and Ariana Greenblatt. (Remember the all-red, shearling coat Swift wore at a Dec. 2024 Kansas City Chiefs game? That was Charlotte Simone's "Lulu" model.) Just like Swift's "Lulu," Gomez's "Jagger" is no longer shoppable, but another slow-fashion collection from Charlotte Simone could drop any day now.

The next time you tell yourself, I already have a black coat, remember this moment. With enough differences—like contrasting lengths or fabrics—feel free to justify a new, Gomez-inspired purchase. Below, Marie Claire curated an edit of just-different-enough rich-girl coats Gomez would approve.

Shop Rich-Girl Coats Inspired by Selena Gomez

Call me Gen Z (derogatory) all you want, but it's cute to be a little mysterious on the internet. My last Instagram post dates back to June, and yet, I feel more in tune with viral trends than ever. It's probably because all my focus goes toward scrolling, not curating a perfect photo dump.

Turns out, I'm in tune with some of the best-dressed—and least online—celebrities of 2025. Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Stone, and Greta Lee were anti-Instagram this year, too, but that didn't stop them from setting internet-wide trends left and right. Lawrence practically revived the cord necklace craze, even before designers could follow suit during the Spring 2026 runway circuit. Stone was a steadfast toe-ring sandal supporter, which encouraged peers like Lawrence to test it out. These It girls didn't need to advertise their outfits on social media; they could watch the online zeitgeist unfold from afar and still make an impact. Maybe when you spend less time tracking what others are wearing, you have more time to develop your own style.

In 2025, stars from Amal Clooney and Kristen Stewart to Jacob Elordi let their laid-back looks speak louder than an Instagram caption ever could. Ahead, see why the "Sorry I've been MIA" post is staying in my drafts in 2026. This year, the best-dressed celebrities taught me I don't need to be chronically online to have relevant, individual style.

Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer Lawrence has steered clear of any app with a big "post" button since she found fame in 2010. She trades Instagram posts and stories for serves captured by the paparazzi, each with a fresh 2025 handbag trend in tow. A rare Hermès Kelly Monaco, The Row's $33,000 Lady Bag, and Jonathan Anderson's reimagined Dior Book Tote all joined the Oscar winner's purse collection within a matter of months.

Emma Stone

Emma Stone delivered street style looks to rival her red carpet rotation throughout 2025—without a single social media post to show for it. Still, a few of her Bugonia press tour looks managed to go viral all on their own. Fashion girls gasped when she arrived at The Late Show With Stephen Colbert in a vintage skirt set from Donna Karan. The two-piece looked as fresh as it did on Gwyneth Paltrow in 1998's Great Expectations. Fingers crossed her vintage selects resume during awards season.

Cate Blanchett

Leave it to Cate Blanchett to turn Chelsea's 2025 flower show into a fashion moment. In May, the Instagram-less actor styled a baby blue button-down with pleated trousers and a gray blazer. Suits like these accompanied Blanchett to late-night shows, Wimbledon, and even the Venice Film Festival. She proved the most lavish suits can feel relaxed with the correct accessories (i.e. Converse sneakers).

Greta Lee

Unlike Lawrence (her fellow Dior brand ambassador), Greta Lee's street style looks were few and far between. But on the off chance she did step out, Lee proved she's a sneakerhead to watch. In late April, the Past Lives star turned heads in New Balance 1906Rs: the same chunky, dad-core sneakers debuted by Taylor Swift in late 2023. She elevated the $160 treads with Loewe's cinched Flamenco Bag, one of Anderson's final designs before moving to Dior's helm.

Margot Robbie

Barbie might have an Instagram account (a fairly animated one at that), but Margot Robbie saved her best outfits for this year's street style circuit only. After the press tour for A Big Bold Beautiful Journey in NYC, the Oscar nominee returned to L.A. and her personal rotation.

A lace-trimmed camisole awoke her boho-chic side, while a leather trench coat from Bottega Veneta added Rihanna-inspired dimension. Since then, Robbie's outerwear has only become more impressive. (See her vintage John Galliano fur at a Frankenstein screening in mid-November for proof.)

Mikey Madison

Being 26 years old, you might assume Mikey Madison's Instagram to be stocked with photo dumps aplenty. On the contrary: She's completely absent from the platform. "I’m not on social media. I never regret missing a party or a dinner, but society makes me wonder: Should I do it too to be happy?" she told Vogue Italia in August.

If her style is this classic without Instagram, I hope she never signs up. Hosting Saturday Night Live at the end of March shined a light on her off-duty aesthetic, specifically her penchant for statement coats. She preferred Chloé selects of the Penny Lane variety, which complemented her Brunello Cucinelli tote.

Kristen Stewart

If Kristen Stewart used Instagram publicly, I assume her grid would resemble Dua Lipa's: photo dumps featuring her travels abroad, selfies with her wife, Dylan Meyer, and her favorite designer looks. (Turns out, she has a private account "that my friends follow where I post pictures of my cat.") Stewart's checkered skirt set on Dec. 1—courtesy of Favorite Daughter—would likely receive a solo post, with close-ups of her Doc Martens and Oakley sunglasses.

Amal Clooney

Amal Clooney is far too busy juggling her human rights career to maintain an active Instagram account. So, most of her street style strolls were surprises in 2025, including a Giambattista Valli Fall 2022 leopard-print coat and croc-embossed boots, in mid-March.

Jacob Elordi

Jacob Elordi has a complicated relationship with Instagram, having deactivated and reactivated his account numerous times since his career took off a decade ago. If he feels inspired to rejoin, his grid would be sneaker-centric in spades. This year, the Frankenstein star became a Nike collector, debuting limited-edition pairs with each outing. $600 Duke "Frankenstein" Supremes and Nike x Jacquemus Moon Shoes were his signatures this year.

Although Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have remained fairly private when it comes to their Montecito, California home, the Duchess of Sussex is slowly revealing more peeks at their lives through her new Instagram account. On Sunday, Feb. 23, she shared some sunny weekend videos in a departure from her usual Insta content—and surprised fans with a very Princess Diana-esque outfit in the process.

The duchess posted a series of short—and somewhat random—videos showing glimpses of her life, with the first Story captioned "A small break from work to soak in the weekend ☀️.” In the video, the camera pans from her ivory slip-on shoes (a past-season J.Crew style) up to show a variety of blooming trees in the Sussex family’s backyard. The next clip reveals a lily-pad covered pond on their property, followed by a video of one of their dogs, Mamma Mia, running through the grass.

“First blooms and blossoms of the year” Markle captioned another video while zooming in on the buds on her numerous trees. Then her Story jump to one of the duchess watering the garden while Prince Archie, 5 (who has a sweet American accent) can be heard chatting in the background before he takes over on hose duty.

But it was the next Story that got plenty of fans talking, as Meghan turned the camera on herself to reveal a purple Northwestern University sweatshirt just like the one Princess Diana wore in the ‘90s.

Princess Diana wore her punchy purple sweatshirt for a trip to the gym in 1996 ,along with her often-copied bike shorts. The difference between the royal outfits, of course, is that the Duchess of Sussex attended the Illinois-based university for her undergraduate degree.

Along with her Diana-coded outfit, Markle also shared a glimpse of herself picking an orange off a tree and then squeezing it into her drink. The camera then pans out to reveal a picnic table featuring a bowl full of oranges—perhaps a glimpse of what fans can expect in her upcoming Netflix show With Love, Meghan.

Meghan Markle kicked off 2025 by returning to Instagram, and since then, she's given fans a peek into her work and life with Prince Harry, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. On Thursday, Feb. 20, the Duchess of Sussex shared a deeper insight into her world by revealing a vision board packed with nods to her old lifestyle blog, The Tig.

"From memory lane to the memories I’m making today…" she captioned the post, which showed a photo of a white-framed bulletin board covered in photos and notes.

Among the papers pinned to the board include quotes from The Tig—a blog that featured travel, fashion, food and other inspirational content. "Happiness looks gorgeous on you," one reads, while another says, "I love you with all my butt. I would say heart, but my butt is bigger."

One quote feels particularly meaningful given the recent criticism—both in the press and on social media—of her new brand, As Ever. "You cannot make everybody happy," the Tig snippet reads. "You are not a jar of Nutella."

The duchess shut her blog down after her engagement to Prince Harry, but she referenced it in the announcement for As Ever on Feb. 18.

"As Ever essentially means as it’s always been, and if you’ve followed me since 2014 with The Tig, you know I’ve always loved cooking and crafting and gardening—this is what I do," she said in an Instagram Reel. Her new brand will offer home and gardening products—along with the celeb-fave jam that went viral when she first announced her business, which was previously called American Riviera Orchard.

That being said, she pinned several labels that read "As Ever raspberry spread" to the board.

Meghan also included some sweet artwork from Prince Archie and personal photos, including one of her with her beloved dog Guy, who died earlier this year. A folded piece of fabric with the As Ever logo on it is also pinned to the board, along with a gift certificate for California restaurant Chez Panisee.

An official launch date for As Ever has yet to be announced, but according to its first (and only) Instagram post, fans can shop the brand in "spring 2025."

It’s been a Valentine’s Day full of royal surprises after both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and Prince William and Princess Kate starred in romantic Instagram posts—and on Friday, Feb. 14, the Duchess of Sussex kept the sweet moments coming (along with some help from Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet).

Archie, 5, and Lilibet, 3, had yet to feature on their mom’s new Instagram account, but they played a starring role in a new video the duchess shared on her Story. In the adorable clip, Meghan’s hands are shown cutting strawberries into heart shapes and arranging them on top of bagels covered in what appears to be strawberry cream cheese.

Princess Lilibet, wearing a sweatshirt covered in conversation hearts, helps out in the background as the duchess shows off a cake stand covered in the breakfast treats. Meghan then carries the spread (with their beagle, Mamma Mia, running at her feet) to the back door, where Prince Archie pulls back a red-and-pink tinsel curtain.

Little Archie is also dressed in the Valentine’s Day spirit in the video, wearing a red T-shirt and a seriously cute headband with heart-shaped bobbles on top.

Their V-Day bagels aren’t the only fun treats Archie and Lili got to enjoy this week. While the Sussex kids didn’t attend this year’s Invictus Games, the duchess—who left Canada a few days early to be with her children—brought back plenty of goodies, including chocolate candies, Tim Horton’s Timbits donuts and personalized Team Nigeria jerseys with their names on them.

The Duchess of Sussex also paid tribute to Prince Harry on Instagram today, writing, "Back home taking care of our babies, and missing my Valentine, as he continues on at the Invictus Games, changing lives and reminding all of us of the power of healing and resilience through these incredible veterans and their families."

Meghan continued, "Beyond proud of my husband and what he’s created. My love, I will eat burgers & fries and fish & chips with you forever. Thank you for you."

Meghan Markle just returned to Instagram on New Year's Day, and unfortunately, the third post on her new @meghan account shared some sad family news. On Tuesday, Jan. 7, the Duchess of Sussex announced her beloved beagle, Guy, had died.

"In Memory of Guy," she captioned the Reel, which showed a number of personal photos and videos, including several featuring her children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

"In 2015, I adopted a beagle from a dog rescue in Canada," the duchess wrote. "He had been at a kill shelter in Kentucky and given a few days to live. I swooped him up….and fell in love. They referred to him as ‘the little guy’ because he was so small and frail, so I named him ‘Guy’. And he was the best guy any girl could have asked for."

The Duchess of Sussex continued that her early fans likely remember him as a regular fixture on her old Instagram account and now-defunct blog, The Tig. "He was with me at Suits, when I got engaged, (and then married), when I became a mom….he was with me for everything: the quiet, the chaos, the calm, the comfort," she wrote.

In one scene from the Reel, Harry and Meghan sit on a floor cradling Guy, while the beagle sweetly touches noses with the duke in another shot. Prince Archie, 5, walks his buddy Guy on a leash with dad Harry in one scene from the video, and his little voice can be heard wondering if Guy was going to fall in the car in another scene, with Meghan reassuring him that the dog will be fine. The Reel finishes with Meghan and the children's voices singing, "We love you Guy, oh yes we do..."

Referring to her Netflix cooking and lifestyle series, With Love Meghan—which airs Jan. 15—the Duchess of Sussex wrote, "Because many of you will now see Guy in this new series, I hope you’ll come to understand why I am so devastated by his loss. I think you may fall a little bit in love too."

The back of Princess Lilibet (and her sweet long hair) is shown in one photo as Meghan sits on a picnic blanket with Guy and their other beagle, Mamma Mia. She also appears to show off her cozy brown kitchen (With Love, Meghan was filmed at a rental home) as she cooks jam in one scene with Guy sniffing away nearby.

The duchess added, "I have cried too many tears to count - the type of tears that make you get in the shower with the absurd hope that the running water on your face will somehow make you not feel them, or pretend they’re not there. But they are. And that’s okay too."

She ended her caption, "Thank you for so many years of unconditional love, my sweet Guy. You filled my life in ways you’ll never know ❤️‍🩹 As ever, Meghan."

If you haven't made a New Year's Resolution yet, consider joining Christina Aguilera in the attitude she's adopting for 2025—and encouraging her followers to take on, too.

On New Year's Eve, the 44-year-old Grammy winner decided to close out 2024 by sharing a video with a montage of highlights from her year. While the video included plenty of good memories from Aguilera's best moments of 2024, it opened with a slew of screenshots of comments she's been bombarded with from people weighing in on her appearance.

The screenshots Aguilera used to open the video included critical comments calling her "fake" and unrecognizable, declaring that she no longer looks like herself, as well as praise for her appearance with comments suggesting she looks like her 2002 self and that a "time machine" or "witchcraft" must be involved in her youthful look. The point is clear: Positive or negative, everyone seems to have an opinion about the "Beautiful" singer's looks.

In voiceover included in the video's audio track, Aguilera talks about being "shamed," "labeled," and "judged" and striving for confidence.

"This year, doing something a little different," she wrote in the post's caption. "This is a reminder to everyone that you are your OWN STORYTELLER in your OWN LIFE. No one else can dictate who you are. No one deserves an explanation."

The declaration that "no one deserves an explanation" calls back to comments Aguilera made earlier this year about her decision not to engage with rumors that recent changes in her appearance are a result of Ozempic use.

“I have a maturity now where I just don’t give a fuck about your opinion. I’m not going to take it on,” Aguilera said in her August cover story interview with Glamour. “It must be your responsibility to take up your space. Other people’s opinions of me are not my business.”

In her end-of-2024 Instagram post caption, Aguilera reflected the ubiquity of judgement from others and the importance of self-acceptance in dealing with that judgement.

"I am evolved enough to know that nothing comes easy and no one is perfect," she continued. "Everyone will judge you. No matter WHAT you do. And/or what you don’t do. Acceptance comes with accepting yourself first. And the difficult journey it takes sometimes to get there. I celebrate everyone taking the time to put one step in front of the next everyday in order to build the next version of themselves for the better. Allowing yourself grace, patience and respect..."

So to recap, the Aguilera-approved approach to a better life in 2025 includes accepting yourself, owning your own story, and not letting outside judgements live rent free in your mind, which honestly sounds like a pretty good plan for, well, literally everyone.

Meghan Markle is starting the new year with a bang. On Wednesday, Jan. 1 the Duchess of Sussex rejoined Instagram under the handle @meghan.

The duchess previously shared plenty of moments from her life under @meghanmarkle, but the account was deactivated in January 2018, shortly after her engagement to Prince Harry. The Sussexes also had their own official royal Instagram account, @sussexroyal, which the duke and duchess stopped using once they stepped down as senior royals. But with the impending launch of her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, it seems she's ready to share personal moments once again.

Her first post is a Reel that Marie Claire understands was captured by Prince Harry at a local beach near their home in Montecito, California. In the video, Meghan, dressed in all white, runs across the sand and bends down to write "2025" before giggling and heading out of the frame.

In August 2023, Marie Claire reported that the duchess was rumored to be returning to Instagram after securing the @meghan handle. However, it was unclear if the account was definitely hers, and a full year after it went up, there were no posts...until now.

The Duchess of Sussex's return to Instagram is not under the umbrella of royal titles or official duties, but rather as a private individual looking to connect with her audience in a more personal, authentic manner. The move is especially significant because of the duchess's work with the Archewell Foundation's Parents Network, which helps families who have been negatively impacted by social media.

It's understood that Meghan will be sharing personal moments in a hope to demonstrate that social media can be used as a positive tool to spread joy and connection.

As for her next Instagram post, watch this space.

For Taylor Swift, "best friend" isn't so much a title as it is a tier, and stylist Ashley Avignone has been on the level for decades. And if her inclusion in Tay's Super Bowl Suite wasn't proof enough of their enduring bond, Avignone's latest Instagram post celebrating her birthday with Swifty front and center should surely do it.

"Happy birthday to me," Avignone wrote in a caption of the duo in a sweet embrace, "emphasis on the *happy* 😆." In the photo, Swift is seen hugging Avignone close (while wearing the fancy new watch boyfriend Travis Kelce got her for Christmas) while a very sprinkled cake sits in front of them.

The duo—who met via mutual friend and actress Emma Stone back in 2008—have been spending heaps of time together of late, as Avignone was also at Taylor's Eras Tour wrap party that Kelce threw the singer earlier this month.

"When she thought she was going to a small, quiet dinner but it was actually a giant surprise party with her friends and family, props included 🥳," Avignone's post about the party read. The stylist posted several images of her and Swift alongside fellow famous friends, like the ladies from the rock band Haim (whom opened for Swift for several of the Eras Tour dates).

Taylor does not seem to be the only famous friend of Avignone's, either, as several notable folks show up in the comments of her birthday post wishing her a happy day—and plenty more are featured in other images across her Insta feed, like Gigi Hadid, Blake Lively, Antoni Porowski, Justin Theroux, Sabrina Carpenter, and more.

Well, it sounds like Chrissy Teigen planned a fittingly legendary day to celebrate her husband, John Legend's 46th birthday (and no, no apologies will be made for the "John Legend x legendary" pun—not now and not ever).

Legend celebrated his special day on Saturday in London with Teigen and the couple's four children—daughters Luna, 8, and Esti, 23 months, and sons Miles, 6, and Wren, 18 months—where the family visited the city's Bubble Planet Experience, according to People.

In a post on Instagram, Teigen shared a picture of Legend in a blue and purple space with clouds painted on the walls, a purple carpeted floor, and a canopy of balloons illuminated with blue light (which {People noted appears to be a booth at London's Bubble Planet Experience). And for the post's caption, Teigen penned a sweet tribute to Legend—and divulged some more details about how he and his family celebrated the Voice coach celebrated his 46th trip around the sun.

"To our everything, the soul of our home (I’m the heart) we love you so much," Teigen wrote. "Happy 46th birthday."

The model and mother of four went on share the family's busy day of birthday celebration plans, which included a trip to see a show in London's West End.

"You spent it taking the kids to the bubble experience in London at 8am, and now we are heading to the [D]evil [W]ears Prada musical because you’re up for any kind of date night you can get, ever. I love you so much, we love you so much. Happy birthday."

The family traveled abroad earlier this month and celebrated Christmas in the U.K. before ringing in the "All of Me" singer's birthday, but the legendary (still not sorry at all) trip has officially come to an end.

Teigen revealed that the family said so long, London on Sunday in a follow-up post on Instagram the day after Legend's birthday.

"bye bye London and thank you @nikki_makeup and @domseeley!!! you angels!" Teigen captioned a photo of herself and Legend from the trip, giving a shout out to her makeup artist, NIkki Wolff, and her hair stylist, Dom Seeley, both of whom traveled with the model as part of her glam squad during the London trip.

Even though he hasn't made any official comments on Blake Lively's It Ends With Us lawsuit, Ryan Reynolds may still have found a subtle way to share a clue about how he's feeling amid the drama.

On Monday, December 23, Reynolds shared his first post to social media since news of Lively's sexual harassment lawsuit against It Ends With Us co-star and director Justin Baldoni broke—a call to fans encouraging them to donate to the SickKids Foundation.

Although the post itself didn't have anything to do with his wife's legal issues, some who read it felt like it still offered insight into the actor's mood amid the legal action, thanks to a subtle line in which the actor references "a time I really didn’t feel like putting the [Deadpool] suit on."

“It’s almost Christmas Eve. Last day to donate to [SickKids Foundation],” Reynolds wrote in the post, which also included a promotional video the actor originally posted on December 12 encouraging donations to the organization that he made with his eight-year-old daughter, Inez, featuring the pair dressed as Deadpool and Kidpool (per People).

“Thank you [Bryan Rowland] for directing this amazing little piece during a time I really didn’t feel like putting the suit on,” he continued in the Instagram Story post. "Thank you [Lynda Carter] for your time, grace and talent. Thank you to my daughter for being such a good person despite your dad asking you to swear (for a good cause).”

Reynolds, who shares four children with Lively (in addition to the actor's "Kidpool" co-star Inez, the couple also shares two other daughters, James, 10 and Betty, 5, and one son Olin, 1), may being keeping any public references to the lawsuit cryptic, but sources say he's been nothing but directly and emphatically supportive of his wife behind-the-scenes as she's dealt with these issues, from what she describes in legal documents as "a hostile work environment" with Baldoni to the current stress that would naturally come with the lawsuit itself.

"Ryan is always her rock," a source close to the could told People just two days after news of Lively's lawsuit against Baldoni broke. "They have such a special relationship. He's very proud of her in so many ways."

And, FWIW, the lack of public comment from Reynolds about the lawsuit seems to be in-line with how Lively wants to handle the case for now. Going into the holidays, the People source said Lively's goal was "to just focus on making Christmas special for her children" and that "for now, she's said what needed to be said."

New year, new Miley Cyrus? Or is it just a new album cycle, perhaps? The perennial actress and singer shared her hopeful feelings on the end of the year—and teased a bit of what's to come—in a new Instagram post on Monday, December 23 that has fans of her music excited.

Reclining on a chair in a floor-length leather dress, the singer hinted at hew forthcoming album, previously teased as being titled Something Beautiful.

"HAPPY HOLIDAYS & NEW YEAR," the post started out. "It’s bittersweet saying goodbye to a year that has been so good to me, but I am looking forward to starting over again."

Cyrus continued, adding: "This is one of my favorite parts of not just the creative process but the way life has chosen to teach me. In everything I do I like to go ALL the way. Give it ALL I’ve got. ALL for it to come to an end, move on and start anew."

"At times it can be a heartbreaking process," she explained, "but I’ve always known the pieces to come back together and create something beautiful. Thank you to everyone who has been apart of making this year so special."

For fans of the singer, the phrase "something beautiful" will likely set off alarm bells, as the singer recently explained that her new album would be called exactly that.

The new album will feature a heaping helping of collaboration from her boyfriend Maxx Morando, the drummer for rock band Liily. And she has a long history of working with people she cares about.

"I worked with my dad forever. That’s how me and my ex-husband [Liam Hemsworth] met each other," she told Harper's Bazaar last month. "I've always worked with the people that I love. And Maxx just inspires me so much."

This album, however, may be a bit different than her previous ones, as she has called it a "visual album" just as much as a musical one—inspired by her "II Most Wanted" collaborator, Beyoncé, perhaps? "The visual component of this is driving the sound," Cyrus stated.

"It was important for me that every song has these healing sound properties. The songs, whether they’re about destruction or heartbreak or death, they’re presented in a way that is beautiful, because the nastiest times of our life do have a point of beauty," she poetically added. "They are the shadow, they are the charcoal, they are the shading. You can’t have a painting without highlights and contrast."

She even went on to compare her ambitions to another seminal album: Pink Floyd's The Wall—an album she and her brother have long loved. "My idea was making The Wall, but with a better wardrobe and more glamorous and filled with pop culture."

So here's to starting over, in a new year, by creating something beautiful together.

The Christmas season might be known as "the most wonderful time of the year," but in the Bieber household, the month of November reigns. Hailey Bieber said so herself in the caption of her latest Instagram post, a carousel of images showing off some of her favorite moments from the last month, captioned, "November aka the best month of the year 🫶🏼🍁."

The model and new mom kicked off the carousel of images with a family selfie. In the picture, Hailey and her husband, Justin Bieber, are wearing cozy coats and enjoying a walk outside with their infant son, Jack Blues Bieber.

Other highlights in the post include images of some new products from Hailey's skincare brand, Rhode, as well as fun selfies and a picture of homemade cinnamon rolls that will make your mouth water on sight.

The family picture, in particular, offers a rare glimpse into the couple's home life as a family of three. While Jack isn't facing the camera in the selfie, that's not surprising, since both Hailey and Justin have avoided showing their son's face in the rare pictures of him they've shared on social media.

Jack also faced away from the camera in a picture Justin shared on November 1 in an Instagram carousel of highlights from the family's October that included a pic of their Kim Possible Halloween costumes.

In August, Justin shared a closeup picture of Hailey lovingly holding newborn Jack's tiny foot in his Instagram post announcing the birth.

While Hailey and Justin have been protecting their family's privacy on social media, sources close to the couple say they're loving their new life as parents.

"They're both overjoyed," one course told People shortly after Jack's birth in August. "The baby is such a miracle. He's adorable and doing well."

Sophie Turner has officially moved on from her marriage. Mere days after finalizing her divorce from Jonas Brothers singer Joe Jonas, the Game of Thrones star decided to become Instagram official with her new beau. In a series of snaps seemingly documenting the summer months, Turner shared pictures of her aristocrat boyfriend Peregrine Pearson on Instagram.

Turner's Instagram post included two clear shots of Peregrine, leading fans to comment excitedly. One person commented on the post, "upgraded i see." Another wrote, "Hope your new beau treats you like the queen you are!"

News of Turner's new romance surfaced in November 2023, when she was spotted kissing the Hon. Peregrine "Perry" Pearson in Paris. He is reportedly part of one of the wealthiest families in the United Kingdom, and his parents are Michael Pearson, 4th Viscount Cowdray and Marina Rose Cordle, Tatler reported. Turner's boyfriend will one day inherit the Viscount Cowdray title.

Prior to his romance with Turner, Peregrine was in a relationship with Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark for three years.

Back in January, Turner teased her new relationship on Instagram by sharing some vacation snaps with a group of friends, simply captioned, "Jägerbomb anyone?" Peregrine was tagged in one snap, which featured four people riding on a ski lift. However, his face wasn't visible in any of the pictures, making Turner's recent post extremely significant.

In September 2023, Jonas and Turner released a joint statement regarding their plans to divorce. "After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage," they explained. "There are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children."

Jonas and Turner welcomed two children together—daughter Willa, who was born in 2020, and daughter Delphine, who arrived in 2022.

Chapell Roan is addressing what the singer and songwriter referred to as "predatory behavior" from fans in a lengthy Instagram post...and nothing was held back.

"For the past 10 years I’ve been going non-stop to build my project and it’s come to the point that I need to draw lines and set boundaries. I want to be an artist for a very very long time," Roan wrote in a note posted to Instagram on Friday, Aug. 23.

"I’ve been in too many nonconsensual physical and social interactions and I just need to lay it out and remind you, women don’t owe you s***," the performer continued. "I chose this career path because I love music and art and honoring my inner child, I do not accept harassment of any kind because I chose this path, nor do I deserve it."

Roan went on to say that when she is on stage, performing, in drag, at a work event or doing press she is "at work." When she's not, however, she is not and should not be expected to be 100% available to her fans.

"Any other circumstance, I am not in work mode," she continued. "I am clocked out. I don't agree with the notion that I owe a mutual exchange of energy, time, or attention to people I do not know, do not trust, or who creep me out—just because they're expressing admiration.

"Women do not owe you a reason why they don't want to be touched or talked to," she added.

The singer went on to clarify that her comments have "nothing to do with the gratitude and love I Feel for my community, for the people who respect my boundaries, and for the love I feel from every person who lifts me up and has tuck with me to help the project get to where it is now."

"I am specifically talking about predatory behavior (disguised as 'superfan' behavior) that has become normalized because of the way women who are well-known have been treated in the past," Roan went on to clarify. "Please do not assume you know a lot about someone’s life, personality, and boundaries because you are familiar with them or their work online."

This is not the first time Roan had addressed the behavior of certain fans who she says are not respecting her boundaries. On Monday, Aug. 19, she shard a series of TikTok videos, where she said she has “entitled” fans with “creepy behavior.”

“If you’re still asking, ‘Well, if you didn’t want this to happen then why did you choose a career where they knew you wouldn’t be comfortable with the outcome of success?’—understand this: I embrace the success of this project, the love I feel, and the gratitude I have," Roan continued in her latest Instagram post. "What I do not accept are creepy people, being touched, and being followed.”

Roan then went on to compare the type of boundary-crossing and harassment she says she has been experiencing as a result of her fame to women being catcalled and harassed.

"This situation is similar to the idea that if a woman wears a short skirt and gets harassed and catcalled, she shouldn’t have worn the short skirt in the first place," Roan wrote. "It is not the woman’s duty to suck it up and take it; it is the harasser’s duty to be a decent person, leave her alone, and respect that she can wear whatever she wants and still deserve peace in this world."

The artist said she wants to simply "do all the things every single person deserves to do," including being outside, giggling with her friends, going to the movies and feeling safe.

"Please stop being weird to my family and friends," she continued. "Please stop assuming things about me. There is always more to the story. I am scared and tired. And please—don’t call me Kayleigh. I feel more love than I ever have in my life. I feel the most unsafe I have ever felt in my life.

"There is a part of myself that I save just for my project and all of you. There is a part of myself that is just for me, and I don’t want that taken away from me," she concluded. "Thank you for reading this. I appreciate your understanding and support.”

Content warning: drugs, addiction

The Friends official Instagram account has posted a heart-warming tribute to Matthew Perry on what have been the actor's 55th birthday.

On Aug. 19, the account posted a photo of Perry as a young man, wearing a suit jacket and a white button-down shirt, with a "Friends 30 years" watermark.

The caption read, "On this day, we remember the light that was Matthew Perry."

Fans flocked to the comments to express their love for the late actor.

"Right now me and my husband are watching Friends, Matthew you're the best. I love you," wrote one person.

"I wish u could be still here living your life, being happy and making us happy as you always did," said someone else.

Perry's tragic death at the age of 54 last October has been under investigation since May in order to determine why the actor had so much ketamine in his system when he died.

In recent days, five people have been charged in connection with Perry's death, according to CNN. These are the actor's assistant Kenneth Iwamasa, Dr. Salvador Plasencia, Dr. Mark Chavez, Jasveen Sangha (known as "The Ketamine Queen"), and Eric Fleming, all of whom are being accused of being allegedly "responsible for distributing the ketamine" that led to Perry's death.

The Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing author was candid about his struggle with addiction throughout his life. Before his death, he reportedly had plans to start a foundation for substance abuse treatment to help others dealing with similar struggles.

Following his untimely passing, Perry's Friends costars all penned moving tributes to him, and continue to do so in interviews and the like.

For one, Matt LeBlanc wrote on Instagram at the time, "Matthew. It is with a heavy heart I say goodbye. The times we had together are honestly among the favorite times of my life. It was an honor to share the stage with you and to call you my friend. I will always smile when I think of you and I’ll never forget you. Never. Spread your wings and fly brother you’re finally free. Much love. And I guess you’re keeping the 20 bucks you owe me."

Pop icon Jennifer Lopez is no stranger to headlines—especially this summer, amid a canceled world tour, speculation surrounding marital issues with husband Ben Affleck, and an opulent, ongoing vacation in the Hamptons. But today, she’s been especially top of mind. The mega-star is celebrating her 55th birthday, inspiring social media retrospectives toasting her decades-long career—including a birthday Instagram post of her own.

Never one to shy away from the spotlight, Jennifer Lopez highlighted her special day with a steamy Instagram post. The singer snapped a mirror selfie in her vacation home, wearing nothing but a white swimsuit, a high ponytail, and stacks of gold jewelry. She captioned the photo “This Is Me…Now,” followed by the birthday cake emoji.

The simple caption holds two meanings. First, it’s the title of the singer’s most recent album, movie, and called-off tour. Secondly, it highlights J.Lo's unexpectedly unfiltered post: Instead of dressing up in her favorite designers and a full face of makeup, she's embracing her physique in a form-fitting one-piece swimsuit from Gooseberry Intimates. Rather than shying away from aging or hiding her body, Lopez celebrated her appearance at 55—making her caption all the more powerful and unapologetic. The post was effective, too, garnering over 700,000 likes and hundreds of well-wishes in the comments.

Especially observant viewers can also spot Lopez’s chic birthday manicure in the post. It's a remnant from her opulent, Bridgerton-themed party over the weekend. The manicure, which comes courtesy of nail brand CND and nail artist Elle Gerstein, mirrors her swimsuit's elegant, minimal design. Indeed, J.Lo truly does appear to be in her au natural era: At another point on her birthday, she wore a sheer toile Dior dress that showed off her curves. There, too, she kept her styling simple, wearing her hair in a slicked-back ponytail with minimal makeup and accessories.

Aging positivity isn't just a birthday activity for the "On the Floor" singer. Jennifer Lopez's natural beauty has shined throughout her Hamptons vacation: Whether she's biking in overalls and a new shoe trend or shopping in a maxi dress and wedge sandals, she's mostly gone makeup-free and in a slicked-back, easy hair style. J.Lo's message? This truly is “her…now."

Back in the day, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds used to playfully troll one another on social media. But now, it seems, Lively is trending more towards celebrating her husband’s physique, as Reynolds’ latest, Deadpool & Wolverine, prepares to open in theaters later this month (July 26, to be exact).

The latest? Well, Lively had a racy response to a photo of her husband in a white vest, posted on Instagram yesterday. The photo was actually posted by Reynolds’ Deadpool & Wolverine co-star Hugh Jackman, in a photo that showed off Reynolds’ muscles as the pair’s press tour kicked off for their film in Shanghai, China. “In the shot, Reynolds pointed and stared at the camera, while red and yellow purses could be seen on the table behind him in an apparent nod to the colors of his and Jackman’s character’s costumes,” People writes.  

Continuing “their ongoing faux feud,” as the outlet puts it, Jackman captioned the post “‘You want me to put this away?’ — Ryan Reynolds, co-star, mouth breather, asshole.”

But all Lively (and, hey, a whole lot of other people) could see was the muscles. She commented “My thirst has been trapped,” alluding to, you know, a thirst trap (sorry, just explaining for the one person who may not get it).

Reynolds himself jokingly responded to Jackman’s photo, writing “This photo is from my private collection. How dare you?” He quipped “You’ve brought shame upon my house”—as he shared the photo to his own Instagram Story.

Reynolds himself shared a carousel of images documenting his time with Jackman in Shanghai, and wrote “Leaving Shanghai is bittersweet…This was the first stop on the #DeadpoolAndWolverineTour. As we make our way to Korea, we want to thank the people of Shanghai for the incredible hospitality and warmth.”

He continued “I’ve been lucky to visit China five times—and as of today, the beautiful sights and sounds of Shanghai for a third time. Thank you from the heart of our bottom…and thank you @theshanghaimuseum for the unforgettable tour last night. So excited to unleash #DeadpoolAndWolverine here July 26th!”

While Reynolds promotes his new movie, Lively recently shared some highlights of her travels in Italy; the well-traveled pair also recently traveled to Madrid, Spain, where they saw close friend Taylor Swift perform her Eras Tour there back in May.

Britney Spears has shared a recent Instagram post claiming her jewelry has been stolen.

On Sunday, May 26, the singer posted a video on social media showing what appeared to be two nearly empty all-white jewelry boxes as she opens and closes various drawers.

"So you can see for real all my jewelry was stolen…it’s hard to buy new now because I’m scared it will go missing," Spears wrote in the caption. "So I buy it cheap and fake, but it’s hard because some of my pieces were originally made for me."

Spears went on to claim that a "baby cross" that she has worn "since I was 4" was also missing, adding that "it's so thin." She did not elaborate in the post when the alleged robbery took place, if she contacted authorities or any other information regarding where her belongings might be or who would allegedly be responsible.

In two follow-up Instagram posts, shared shortly after Spears claimed she had been robbed, the singer posted videos of herself posing in front of the camera, showing off two outfits—a miniature pink dress with puffy sleeves and shell-like accents on the front, and a miniature red dress featuring off-the-shoulder sleeves.

"My favorite dress at the moment … dropped 12 sizes when I brought it to the door though," Spears wrote in the caption of the first post featuring the pink dress. "🧐🧐🧐 not sure why 🍾🍾🍾 !!!" she added, apparently insinuating a connection between her alcohol intake and her size.

"Thinking of getting a tongue 👅 ring!!!" Spears captioned the second post in which she is seen wearing the miniature red dress.

In another Instagram post that was shared prior to the alleged robbery, Spears admitted that she is "scared of the outside world."

"I’m scared of the outside world because god forbid I break a foot and someone calls an ambulance so I don’t go out much," she wrote in the lengthy caption, alluding to an incident in which Spears was allegedly involved in a fight with her boyfriend at the hotel Chateau Marmont. Paramedics were dispatched to the hotel.

In an Instagram post, Spears addressed the alleged incident, saying that "the news is fake."

"I would like respect at this time for people to understand that I am getting stronger everyday," she wrote in a screenshot that was subsequently posted to her page. "Truth sucks so can someone teach me how to lie? Goddesses out there, I'm reaching my higher power and furthermore, I hope you guys are too."

Spears went on to say that she "twisted her ankle" during the alleged incident and that "paramedics showed up at my door illegally."

"They never came in my room but I felt felt completely harassed," she continued. "I'm moving to Boston!!! Peace."

Sophia Bush and Ashlyn Harris are showing off their newfound relationship via a pair of separate, adorable Instagram posts.

On Saturday, May 25, Bush shared two photos of herself loving on her new girlfriend, Harris, on her Instagram stories. In the post, the pair are standing alongside each other, their arms around one another as Bush gives Harris a kiss on the cheek.

"I just want to squeeze her," Bush writes in the second post of the same photo. “I get that it’s new for ya’ll to see me so happy and so embodied. It’s new for me too. How luck am I.”

Not to be outdone, Harris shared a few PDA-packed photos of her own to her Instagram stories. In her post, Harris smiles for the camera as the pair each hold a glass of wine and Bush once again gives Harris a kiss on the cheek.

Love is in the air, ya'll!

Earlier this year, Bush penned a moving essay announcing that she was queer.

"I don’t think I can explain how profound that is,” she wrote for Glamour and as their April 2024 cover star.

"I feel like I was wearing a weighted vest for who knows how long," she said. "I hadn’t realized how heavy it was until I finally just put it down. This might sound crazy—but I think other people in trauma recovery will get it—I am taking deep breaths again. I can feel my legs and feet. I can feel my feet in my shoes right now. It makes me want to cry and laugh at the same time."

Forever the supportive partner, Harris publicly praised Bush for her bravery and authenticity after her essay was published, posting a photo of Bush posing for Glamour's cover story on her Instagram stories. 

Shortly after, the new couple made their red carpet debut on April 28 while attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner at the Washington Hilton in Washington.

The pair walked side-by-side and hand-in-hand on the red carpet, rocking the same designer—Harbison—while attending the event, People reported at the time. Bush wore a black strapless gown featuring eye-catching gold pendant detailing, while Harris wore a textured black vest, also featuring gold detailing, and wide black pants.

Chrissy Teigen is opening up about the level of fear she lives with on a daily basis via an extremely candid and emotional Instagram post.

On May 24, the model and influencer shared both a photo and video of a recent outing in which she completed a log crossing. Along with the photo and video, the cookbook author shared a candid message about fear.

"I did this log crossing a few years ago when I last came here, when I was struggling mentally. It was incredibly hard then," she wrote. "My feet felt like they were 1,000 pounds each, my body tensed up to the point I felt like I was in a car crash after coming down. I made it across then, after about 40 lonnnng minutes. And I’m not even scared of heights! It wasn’t the height. It’s fighting through the pain in my arms, my neck, my feet most of all."

Teigen went on to explain that she assumed attempting another log crossing "today" would be "so different," in part because she assumed the "pain" would "go away by relaxing my body, breathing and just taking in and enjoying what I was doing."

"But plot twist!! It was just as hard," she added.

While Teigen says she "shaved off a little time," she was still "terrified."

"I thought that since I have seen times that were so dark since the last time I did this, that I would be fearless on this god damn thing. But I’m still so scared," she continued. "Then I realized I now live my whole life so scared. I don’t enjoy much outside my family, my few friends, television and crafts. I feel like a very shrunken version of myself. And I know I am meant to be big."

The mom of four wrote that she is "really scared" of letting her fans down, adding that she finds herself "fighting with myself all day in my brain with things I want to say, things I want to explain, but I’m just so fearful."

"I miss so many parts of myself and I hope one day I can shed some fear and accept that I will never be perfect for you guys and that is okay!!" she continued. "But for now I will continue to work on it all and try to balance my brain with rational thoughts, and try to be kind to myself and my body and mind."

Teigen faced a heavy amount of criticism and backlash in early 2021, Us Weekly documents, after some of Teigen's past social media posts showing the model bullying others online surfaced.

Courtney Stodden, a non-binary singer, shared problematic and harmful screenshots of DMs she received from Teigen. In May 2021, she told the Daily Beast that "some of the worst treatment I got was from women, and we’re not going to get anywhere if we keep holding each other back.”

Shortly after, Teigen issued a public apology to Stodden, saying in part: "Not a lot of people are lucky enough to be held accountable for all their past b******* in front of the entire world."

"I’m mortified and sad at who I used to be," she said at the time. "I was an insecure, attention seeking troll. I am ashamed and completely embarrassed at my behavior but that is nothing compared to how I made Courtney feel.”

Are we overanalyzing this? Maybe. But we can’t ignore that Jennifer Lopez “liked” an Instagram post about relationship red flags and unhealthy relationship traits, even as rumors continue to swirl about the status of her marriage to Ben Affleck—which is less than two years old.

Here’s the scoop: relationship coach Lenna Marsak shared on her Instagram Story yesterday that Lopez “liked” a post dating all the way back to March 19 (!) from her account “that details personality traits some people bring to relationships that the account positions as unhealthy for romance,” People writes. 

“Just logged on to IG and noticed @jlo liked my post,” Marzak (whose Instagram handle is @yourcourageouscomeback) wrote. “Jlo or her PR team, I’ll take it.”

But then, today, Marzak shared a video asking followers to “Please be kind to Jennifer Lopez because she’s a human being,” she said. “I do not know if they’re getting divorced. I hope not but, yeah, please.”

The post in question states that people “cannot build a healthy relationship with someone who lacks integrity & emotional safety,” does not respect others’ time, “lacks effective communication skills,” and “doesn’t know who they are or what they want.” It also explained that lacking integrity causes trust issues and can lead to an “environment of fear, anxiety, and emotional instability,” and, without proper communication skills, relationships lack “empathy and connection.” 

Although the original post was shared in March, Marzak confirmed that Lopez didn’t engage with it until this week.

A source speaking to Us Weekly said Lopez and Affleck “are having issues” but aren’t breaking up, as Marie Claire reported earlier today. “They started having issues a few months ago as Jen had started ramping up work commitments and prepping for her tour,” they said, referencing her tour in support of her latest album, This Is Me…Now, which kicks off next month in Orlando. Lopez also has a film, Atlas, dropping on Netflix on May 24, and has been filming Kiss of the Spider Woman this spring.

“Jen is very focused on work,” they continued. “They are on two completely different pages most of the time.” The outlet reports that Lopez recently looked at a home in L.A. “that she’s saying is intended as an investment property,” and also noted that Affleck “has been staying at a place in L.A. that is separate from the couple’s usual home.”

The two haven’t been seen publicly together since March 30, when they were house hunting in New York City. Though both are still wearing their wedding rings, Affleck skipped the Met Gala on May 6 with Lopez, who was one of the event’s four co-chairs. 

The two married in the summer of 2022 after a 20-year extended courtship. After their first relationship and engagement in the early aughts, Lopez and Affleck called it quits in 2004; both went on to marry and have children with other people (Lopez shares twins Max and Emme with ex Marc Anthony, and Affleck shares Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel with ex Jennifer Garner). The couple reconnected in 2021, were engaged the next year, and married months later.

As Lopez put it, “I fell in love with the love of my life [earlier in life] and for whatever reasons, we needed to grow and do other things,” she said during a February appearance on Australia’s Kyle & Jackie O Show, where she promoted her album This Is Me…Now, its accompanying musical film, and documentary The Greatest Love Story Never Told, all homages to her love story with Affleck. “We both went off and had children with other people and other relationships, but, you know, in my mind I kind of had it like, ‘Oh, that was kind of The One.’”

There’s no right way to “do” wellness, but Marie Claire’s Doing Well offers a glimpse into the self-care mantras, therapies, and affirmations practiced by industry trailblazers.

Khristianne Uy, better known as Chef K, is a celebrated private chef best known for her longtime professional relationship with the Kardashians. As one can imagine, her job requires long days (16 hours is standard), creativity, and a deep dedication to nutrition. Finding balance is a constant challenge and lengthy wellness rituals don't make the cut. Instead, she integrates easy, centering habits.

"I like to start off the day with three good flowing things," she exclusively shares with Mare Claire. "One for the body, one for the mind, and one for spirit. So, I make sure that I take all the vitamins and chug my water, and I think about what I'm grateful for. I think: What's fortifying my day? What am I going to be grateful for today? It's so important to hold that little space for ourselves."

Her gratitude is grounded in her life experience. Born and raised in the Philippines, she's acutely aware of daily habits, like turning on the tap and getting clean water, that easily get taken for granted. "It's hard to process a different reality from what I've grown up with, culturally," she shares. "[Back home} you don't know what you'll get when you pour water. It's like a roulette. That batch of tap water could make you sick for weeks. But here [in Los Angeles], it's always clean water."

An appreciation for every aspect of life gives Chef K an impressive sense of balance. Ahead, she describes the mental and physical secrets to keeping her level-headed—no matter what the day throws at her.

I'm pretty old school. I don't really go by trends unless I've experienced it myself or I've known someone who's gone through it. Only because, as a chef too, wellness and diet are most important to me. Remember the Atkins diet? That was the biggest wave and then, a few years later, everyone had high cholesterol or blood pressure. So it's a tricky thing. Don't get me wrong, part of me still thinks, "Oh, what is that? Let me try it." I'm exposed to so many things, especially with the family that I work for, that it's fun to try it. But am I invested in it? Do I have time for it? No.

I have a scepter. It's a super seven scepter and I just hold it in my pocket because I feel like my exposure to different entities in the world can really suck up my energy. Maybe it's a placebo effect and maybe not, but it keeps my fate going, in a sense. I'm also Catholic, so I'm like, "Should I hold this? Should I not?" But crystals are number one for me—I have them all over my house.

I've seen a lot of these Gen Z-ers say they can't go through their day without drawing an angel card. They're like, "Oh, I can't make a decision." They're much too dependent on that, which worries me, because it's like, "Dude, have a backbone a little bit."

Powders. Khloé had a collagen powder, and I had to figure out ways to use it. How do I warm up? Even with matcha, do I warm up a quarter cup of water to dilute this before I put it? There's too many steps.

I wake up, let the dogs out, make sure that they're all out. Then, after I take my vitamins the first thing I grab is this liquid collagen. It has saved my hair, my nails, and my acid reflux. I make myself a matcha.

I make sure I'm good with my liquids because chefs forget to eat a lot of the time. Sometimes, it's the 10th or 12th hour of working nonstop, and I'm like, "Why am I so dizzy?" The Spoiled Child collagen keeps me full, which makes sense because in the Philippines, we used to wake up and drink soup my mom made with beef knuckles. Now, we call it bone broth. That's been part of my routine my whole life. I have no time to heat up soup and drink gelatinous broth, so this is a great solution.

I never live the same day twice. We can't plan for mishaps, but on the days that I follow a self-care regimen and show up for myself, I feel good. I feel so bad when I don't wash my face, for instance. It's just a little act of care that I show to myself. Water is number one for me, too.

When you look at my Instagram, it's all dogs. Everything is dog, puppy, puppy, puppy, it's a Maltese world, poodle world, blah blah blah. All over the world, that's what I watch. I feel like dogs are just angels and they're really there to show you love. And that spikes up all my inspiration.

Collagen would be my high-brow splurge. I have tried many collagens that were just not working out before I discovered the one I use. Skincare and haircare are number one: I'm 42 and I'm real Asian, and what I mean that is my hair is so straight that it splits in half. I used to look like The Grudge. I've been really insecure about how thin my hair is and how fine it is. I gave collagen five weeks to work and I am telling you, it made a difference. Plus with my skin, being 42—and I do smoke cigarettes, though I don't drink—and getting only two or three hours of sleep as a chef, I want to look good. There is pressure with being around the clients that I have. I can't just look bad.

I'm a Libra at heart, so it's all about balance and that nothing is so linear, and I think that's a beauty of human nature. Everyone's just so unique and different. So for me, with my lifestyle, I don't have a lifestyle. With my occupational life, it's all about energy. When I am stepping into a huge event, I need to make sure that I'm fully there, because I feel like the food is always affected by it. So it starts off with the mirror and just feeling good.

It's always mom. She gives really, really good advice, about handling life. Even when I lost my father, there was this strength that I found in her that kept me going. That was her best friend for 47 years—gone. So I was more worried about her, but she kept it strong. I've learned a lot from her. A lot. Humility is number one. She would always say, "Don't forget to always look back and remind yourself where you've come from or else you'll completely lose it in this big, big, big, big world."

My steps app. I try to be active, so I make sure that my steps are in. And it's crazy, because sometimes in a kitchen, which is only like 400 or 600 square feet kitchen, I'll do 28,000 steps. And I'm like, No wonder I have cabin fever.

When I know that it's going to be an intense day, I jump in the pool. Sometimes, when I've had a long day, you'll see a trail of clothes. The pool is a good cold plunge. Also holding my puppies.

I'm Catholic at heart, so I have this little shrine by my nightstand. I say a prayer. Prayer is my way of checking in on myself. It's for my mental clarity, to know the spirit support is there.

Have you ever had a conversation with somebody, and it has nothing to do with you, but they're on a rant and you just don't know what to say? I take on so much energy throughout the day. As a private chef, you soak up all these energies that your body's not used to, like divorces, rehabs, all that stuff, and you witness it in the kitchen. Those are their most intimate moments, and how do you process that? You need to be strong for yourself.

My therapist advises me to do this one thing: When you're home, you need to not be Chef K. She says, "When you pull up to your garage, when you park your car, open up your glove compartment and take your chef's coat off and tuck it in there." So, when you enter your house, you're Khristianne. You keep the two separated.

When I'm with my puppies. I have five puppies. Also, where mom is. Having one parent now really changed my perception in life. I have one and I'd better take great care of her.

I was told the wrong position for my quartz crystal, so it was facing the wrong side of the house. When you enter, it should be southwest and it's supposed to be grabbing the energy, supposedly, from there. But instead, I was told, "Oh, put it on the floor in the center of your living room or your room." I did that and I felt like I drank a Red Bull.

There are a lot of skincare trends that people are promoting that I just don't do. My mom advises that Asian skincare is the best, and she used to get me papaya soap to scrub my face. We didn't believe in additives. I remember even deodorant looked like a rock. Now, I think a lot of things have been over-complicated and people are really missing the point. There are all of these products for big problem-solving, but it's like, what are we solving here? We're actually creating more problems.

Be preventative, before it's too late. When I give my team, most of whom are a decade or two decades younger than me, advice, they look at me like I'm an alien sometimes. But I'm like, "In 10 years, you're going to be like, 'Yeah, chef, you were right.'"

If one of your ongoing goals is to lower the numbers on your weekly screentime report, you're not alone. Selena Gomez—who just happens to be the most-followed woman on Instagram, per Deadline—says she's happier when she takes time away from the app, too.

"I took four years off of Instagram and I let my team post for me," the Only Murders in the Building star said during a panel discussion at the Time 100 Summit (via CNBC). "I felt like it was the most rewarding gift I gave myself. I was more present. I was happier."

Gomez has 429 million Instagram followers, more than Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift. But numbers are just that—and they don't replace IRL connections. The "Hands to Myself" singer explained at the Time panel that she felt "more human" when she talked to friends on the phone, instead of just interacting with each other's social media posts. "I think it's important to take breaks," she said of her Instagram pause.

Gomez has been open about her mental health in the past, too. Gomez has used her platform to discuss the stigma surrounding mental health treatment and released a documentary, My Mind & Me, about her experience in 2022.

The singer and actress also addressed her bipolar diagnosis at the Time 100 panel, explaining that it helped her understand what she was going through. "For years, I was so confused that my emotions were so intense," Gomez said (via Elle). "And once I finally found the answer, it wasn't, 'Oh, I have this problem.' It actually made me feel better to know and understand what was happening in my mind."

Using Instagram can be a great way to connect with friends and like-minded people. But there's no shame in taking a break from social media if it's negatively impacting your mental health—just ask the most popular woman on the app.

After Taylor Swift released her eleventh studio album The Tortured Poets Department and shocked fans with a surprise 15 additional songs, she is apparently feeling empowered to weigh on what some consider to be the definitive ranking of the pop star's exes.

Swift unceremoniously "liked" a recent Instagram post shared by the media company Betches, that included a meme that ranked her past boyfriends.... and, yes, it included her current boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, too.

At the bottom of the ex-filled pyramid was Calvin Harris, Joe Alwyn, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Swift's most recent ex, Matty Healy.

The mid-tier boyfriends, according to the meme (and apparently Swift?) were as follows: Taylor Lautner, Tom Hiddleston and Harry Styles.

At the top of pyramid? You guessed it: Swift's current beau, Kelce. The pair were recently spotted at Coachella and it's safe to say, the PDA is real.

Fans certainly noticed that Swift "liked" the post, and were quick to share their surprise and delight in the comment section.

"I CANT BELIEVE TAYLOR LIKED THIS… SHE IS COMING FOR JOE," one fan wrote.

"Taylor liking this is hilarious," another commented.

"Taylor liked this post and I’m here for it," another wrote.

Fans are already speculating that Swift confirmed that her ex, Alwyn, cheated via so-called "clues" sprinkled throughout lyrics on The Tortured Poets Department, providing an alleged reason for the end of the former couple's six-year relationship.

One "clue" is in the song "Fortnight" featuring Post Malone, on which the pop star sings: "My husband is cheating, I wanna kill him."

Swift also touches on her relationship with rock musician Healy in the album who, according to sources who spoke to US Weekly, was reportedly afraid he would be a "villain" of Swift's latest project.

"Matty’s family knew about the relationship,” the insider told the publication. “And they were worried that Taylor was going to rip him apart. Matty has struggled with life in the public eye, and he’s been doing really well, but the last thing that he needs is for every Swiftie in the world to think he’s a villain.”

Another source told the same publication that Healy was "really appreciative" to receive a gracious "heads-up" from Swift's team regarding her new album.

Shay Mitchell, like many of us, has a go-to Instagram photographer.

But while she could tap partner Matte Babel or a professional photog for the job, the Pretty Little Liars alum prefers a shorter, less experienced someone behind the lens: namely her four-year-old daughter Atlas Babel.

Mitchell just posted a photo of herself looking absolutely bewitching in a blue one-piece, multicolored crochet hat and chunky white sunglasses while spending time by the ocean, on Instagram, and captioned it, "Some people have ig husbands/wives and I have my four year old."

In the next slides, Mitchell progressively zoomed into her mirror-effect sunglasses until you could see very clearly that Atlas was taking the photo, looking the picture of concentration while holding the phone with two hands to capture the perfect shot.

Famous friends were absolutely obsessed with this family photo shoot, with Steph Shep writing, "Lmaooooo screaming the way she’s holding the camera" and subsequently adding the comment, "#momgoals"

Elsa Hosk and Eva Longoria were also among those who approved this message.

In another post from their sweet vacation, Mitchell shared lovely photos of mother and kids enjoying the sun, sea, and most importantly: tacos.

Fellow PLL stars Troian Bellisario and Ashley Benson left sweet comments on this one.

Mitchell and Matte have been together since circa 2017 and welcomed Atlas in 2019, followed by daughter Rome in 2022.

Atlas being her mom's dedicated photographer brings to mind North West, whom mom Kim Kardashian often enlists to capture her best angles as well. Gotta do what you gotta do!

Actress Kate Beckinsale has apparently deleted photos from her personal Instagram account detailing what appeared to be a nearly month-long hospital stay for an undisclosed health issue.

The first post to feature the Underworld star in a hospital bed appeared on March 11, when she paid homage to her mom on Mother's Day in the United Kingdom.

The post featured two photographs of Beckinsale in a hospital bed, wearing a gown and an oversized black bow in her hair. The actress had what appeared to be tears in her eyes, looking very emotional.

In the caption, she thanked all the moms who turn up "when we're sick" and who "sit with us," send "balloons" and pull "us out of wells with love."

In another post, nine days later on Tuesday, March 20, the actress shared another hospital bed selfie.

The actress and mom also shared a photo of her Pomeranian, Myf, during a recent hospital visit, People reported at the time. She captioned the post "visitor."

Earlier that same day, she posted another picture showing the actress wearing a pink sweater as she snuggled her cat, Willow, who also paid her a hospital visit.

On March 30, the actress wished fans, friends and loved ones alike a happy Easter from the hospital, posting another Instagram photo of herself wearing Easter-themed bunny socks as she was once again seen lying in a hospital bed.

Throughout the multiple posts, Beckinsale did not disclose the reason for her hospital visit or any details regarding her apparent treatment.

In one of her most-recent Instagram posts, on April 5, the actress and mom shared a series of photos from the hospital, including a picture of the book Grief Is for People by author Sloane Crosley.

According to a description of the book by Macmillan Publishers, the book is a "disarmingly witty and poignant" memoir that "explores multiple kinds of loss following the death of (the author's) closest friend."

Additional photos in the now-deleted carousel showed Beckinsale spending time with friend Jonathan Voluck. In two photos, the pair could be seen smiling for the camera from Beckinsale's hospital bed and while they both were wearing a conjoined peanut-shaped pillow on their heads.

So far, 2024 has appeared to be a difficult year for the actress, who in addition to dealing with an unknown health issue commemorated the 45th anniversary of her father's death. And on Jan. 10, Beckinsale announced the passing of her beloved stepfather, Roy Battersby, via Instagram.

And while she has yet to publicly discuss her health or apparent hospital stay since deleting the photos, there's speculation that her her weeks-long hospitalization has or had something to do with her 2019 hospital stay to treat a ruptured ovarian cyst, as CNN reported at the time.

"Turns out a ruptured ovarian cyst really hurts and morphine makes me cry," Beckinsale wrote in an Instagram post announcing her health scare. "So thankful to everyone who looked after me."

ICYMI: The Kardashian-Jenner family is currently embarking on the ultimate getaway in Turks and Caicos. Kylie Jenner is, of course, in attendance and in need of some rest and relaxation following the launch of her new Sprinter vodka sodas. While in the tropics, Jenner is taking her spring break wardrobe for a (literal) dip in the ocean.

In a recent Instagram photo carousel of her travels, the Khy founder is seen posing in front of the sunset in a silver satin gown from Entire Studios. Her sheer silk dress featured an asymmetrical bodice, a deep cowl back, and a subtle fishtail skirt that was submerged underwater as Jenner stood thigh-deep in the ocean.

She finished her evening's glam with chunky silver earrings and a dainty gold bracelet on her wrist. Her dewy makeup included rosy cheeks with a shimmery highlight, and her dark hair was slicked back into a bun.

Jenner's beachside fashion didn't just stop there. Over the past week, she's kept her 400 million followers up to date with other outfits from the vacation. Aside from a stringy designer bikini and Alo Yoga workout sets, the 26-year-old is very fond of wearing glamourous gowns while seaside.

Days earlier, Jenner took pictures on the same beach during sunset once again. She resembled a mermaid fresh out of the ocean, wearing a long-sleeve maxi iridescent ensemble from Galvan London. The beauty-fashion-beverage mogul kept her same effortless, glowy makeup and sleek bun.

Now, not all of Jenner's vacation 'fits have taken a plunge in the Atlantic Ocean. Yesterday, she posted another outfit update—a floral vintage mini dress from Versace with her long dark brown hair flowing past her shoulders.

Will Jenner take another dress for a swim? Only her next Turks and Caicos photo dump will tell.

Despite their busy schedules, the Kardashians certainly know how to make time for family, especially on a tropical getaway. Kim Kardashian shared snapshots of their trip on Instagram, showing three out of the five sisters and their children holidaying in Turks and Caicos ahead of the upcoming season of Hulu's The Kardashians. The sisters have used this opportunity to promote many swimsuits and cover-ups from Kim's brand Skims, which Khloe also tagged in her posts.

The first Instagram post focused on the Skims founder in a white bikini and grey skirt; the photos included a stunning sunset, and it was clear Kim had been soaking up the rays. She opted for slicked-back hair and natural makeup.

The next carousel featured Kim in a snakeskin bikini and cowboy hat. Kim has frequently donned a cowboy hat in recent posts, joining the rest of us in our Cowboy Carter era. “This ain’t Texas…it’s Turks,” she captioned the photos, referencing Beyoncé’s No. 1 country hit “Texas Hold ’Em.” In one of the photos, Khloe is leaning in the sand beside her, with Kourtney tagged on a deckchair in the background.

The final carousel was dedicated to the little ones. Captioned "Spring Break," it featured North, True, Psalm, Chicago, and Saint. The kids are seen playing in the water and sitting on a boat. The final photo included early birthday celebrations for True, who will turn six years old on April 12, with huge pink balloons arranged indoors and spelling out the words, "Happy Birthday True."

Kourtney wasn't featured in these photos (except for that background shot) but shared her own holiday snaps on Instagram. She took this moment to give a shoutout to fellow new mothers. Kourtney gave birth to baby Rocky Thirteen five months ago, and the Poosh founder has been open about her experiences with her body and exercise since giving birth.

"Your body is beautiful at all stages," Kardashian Barker wrote on an Instagram Story. "During pregnancy as we are glowing and growing, postpartum as we are healing and shrinking, and then that period I find the hardest as our bodies are still adjusting."

"The pressure put on us to bounce back when everything is new and different isn't realistic," Kourtney continued. "Life is beautiful, you are beautiful. Just a little reminder (for me too;) XOXO."

Aside from her compassion, Kourtney also gave fans a glimpse of her humor with an Instagram carousel. She recreated Kim's infamous lost-earring incident from season six of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Kim became a viral sensation when she cried about losing her diamond earring in the ocean.

“My diamond earring came off in the ocean and it’s gone,” Kourtney captioned photos of herself splashing about in the water and reaching for her ears.

While Kylie Jenner hasn't appeared in any photos with her sisters, she also seems to be enjoying a vacation in Turks and Caicos. "Back in paradise," she captioned photos of herself in a studded bikini. It's unsure whether she is traveling there with the rest of her family or on her own, or perhaps with her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet. She also shared photos in a bright orange bikini on a balcony, and took an opportunity to promote the brand alo.

On Friday Lizzo had fans a little concerned when she cryptically posted a lengthy message on her Instagram page that concluded with “I didn’t sign up for this shit—I quit.” Okay, but quit what, exactly? Instagram? Social media? Music? Entrepreneurial ventures? The ambiguity loomed large.

Thankfully—and as we all should—Lizzo is quitting “negative energy,” and not any of the above, Entertainment Weekly reports. In a followup video shared to her 12.1 million Instagram followers yesterday, Lizzo clarified and set the record straight, saying “I wanted to make this video because I just need to clarify when I say, ‘I quit,’ I mean I quit giving any negative energy attention,” she said. “What I’m not gonna quit is the joy of my life, which is making music, which is connecting to people, because I know I’m not alone. In no way, shape, or form am I the only person experiencing that negative voice that seems to be louder than the positive. If I can just give one person the inspiration or motivation to stand up for themselves and say they quit letting negative people win, negative comments win, then I’ve done even more than I could’ve hoped for.”

She added “With that being said, I’m gonna keep moving forward. I’m gonna keep being me.”

Lizzo’s original “I quit” post was shared amid several lawsuits filed against her last year. Three of the singer’s backup dancers accused her of creating a hostile work environment; Lizzo denied the allegations and filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit late last year, but a judge is allowing the case to proceed to trial.

In November, Lizzo explained to fans in another vulnerable Instagram post that she was taking time to focus on herself as the chaos raged: “Hi,” she wrote. “I’m working.. on music, myself, relationships with people and food, my anxiety, my body, my business, and my trust issues with the world.. but they are deep now, deeper than they’ve ever been. Xoxo.” 

In yesterday’s video, Lizzo said she felt “the love” from her fans and thanked them for it. “It means more than you know,” she concluded.

In an attempt at appealing to the youth of the country, Japan’s royal family has launched an Instagram account, NBC News reports, writing that “The world’s oldest monarchy made its social media debut Monday [April 1] in a bid to shake off its image as reclusive and out of touch.”

The Japanese Imperial Family’s Instagram launch features Bonsai trees and birthday gatherings—"a cautious first step into the world of social media that may disappoint those hoping for a candid glimpse into their veiled world,” NBC News reports. By the end of its first day, the account had 320,000 followers; at press time of this story, the follower account had reached 579,000.

In an impressive 20 pictures published over a span of just a few hours, the account highlights the royal family’s first three months of 2024, from a New Year’s celebration to a royal birthday. Emperor Naruhito, Empress Masako, and their daughter Princess Aiko make appearances throughout the content, attending royal engagements and meeting officials. The account has blocked comments on all of its posts.

The Japanese royal family is considered to be the world’s oldest monarchy and said it is trying to reach out to younger generations by posting on Instagram; it is also considering opening accounts on Facebook and X in the future.

“Since the Imperial Family is built on the consensus of the people, we hope this will deepen the understanding amongst young people who will lead the next generation,” said Mariko Fujiwara, head of public relations for the Imperial Household Agency.

The Japanese royal family, by the way, is not immune to a scandal of its own, as its British counterparts have faced thanks to posts to social media this year. (One word: Photogate.) Princess Mako, the niece of popular former Emperor Naruhito, married a commoner (something the British have been known to do, as well) and dramatically exited royal life, ultimately ending up in the U.S. (New York City specifically). Sound like anyone you know? Mako gave up her royal status to marry Kei Komuro and turned down a lump sum payment of about $1.3 million that female royals receive when marrying outside of the Imperial Family.

The Imperial Household Agency is an “extremely conservative institution,” said Jeffrey Hall, a Japanese studies lecturer at Kanda University of International Studies in Chiba, southeast of Japan’s capital city of Tokyo. “They’d consider humorous or entertaining social media posts featuring the Imperial Family as degrading their dignity.” For now, the Japanese royal family “seems fine with change taking place at a snail’s pace,” he said: “Conservative Japanese fans of the imperial couple will probably be satisfied with the respectful and dignified tone of these Instagram posts,” Hall said.

For context, the Japanese royal family made its social media debut a full 15 years after the British royal family did the same, joining X (formerly known as Twitter) back in 2009.

Singer Lizzo has had enough.

On Friday, March 29, the Truth Hurts singer shared an emotional post on her Instagram page, seemingly announcing that she is walking away from the music industry... at least, for now.

"I'm getting tired of putting up with being dragged by everyone in my life and on the internet," she wrote. "All I want is to make music and make people happy and help the world be a little better than how I found it. But I'm starting to feel like the world doesn't want me in it."

Lizzo went on to say that she is "constantly up against lies being told about me for clout and views," adding that she is "the butt of the joke every single time because of how I look."

"My character (is) being picked apart by people who don't know me and disrespecting my name," she continued. "I didn't sign up for this s***—I quit."

Fans and celebrities alike where quick to comfort Lizzo in the comment section, including Paris Hilton, who wrote: "We love you Queen😍👑."

"You are so necessary, talented and important," vlogger and comedian Kid Fury wrote. "You also deserve peace. Whatever makes you happy, I support."

"All of this. The internet isn’t real life. Protect you," Sophia Bush commented. "We love you."

"F That Do U❤❤❤," Queen Latifah wrote.

"The ppl need u Lizzo," rapper Latto commented. "I remember U made me keep going when I wanted to quit before. Ur soul is SO pure f--- these ppl that don't know you! TEAM LIZZO 4L."

In 2023, three of Lizzo's former backup dancers—Arianna Davis, Noelle Rodriguez, and Crystal Williams—filed a 44-page lawsuit against the singer, alleging she and her production company, Big Grrrl Big Touring, Inc (BGBT) engaged in appropriate sexual behavior, workplace misconduct, disability discrimination, religious harassment, and assault, The Independent reports.

In response, Lizzo issued a public statement, saying the allegations are "sensationalized stories" coming from "former employees who have already publicly admitted that they were told their behavior on tour was inappropriate and unprofessional."

"There is nothing I take more seriously than the respect we deserve as women in the world," she continued. "I know what. it feels like to be body shamed on a daily basis and would absolutely never criticize or terminate an employee because of their weight."

In February, 2024, a judge denied Lizzo's request to have the lawsuit dismissed, despite the dismissal of certain allegations levied against the singer in the 2023 lawsuit.

In November, 2023, the singer posted another message to Instagram, telling fans she's "iworking.. on music, myself, relationships with people and food, my anxiety, my body, my business, and my trust issues with the world.. but they are deep now, deeper than they’ve ever been."

Eva Mendes has had Kenough.

Following Ryan Gosling's show-stopping "I'm Just Ken" performance at the 2024 Oscars, his wife posted an endearing photo on Instagram, with an even funnier caption. "You took Ken all the way to the Oscar's, RG. Now come home, we need to put the kids to bed," Mendes wrote, adding a lipstick-kiss emoji for good measure. The caption accompanies a shot of the actress in a bright pink blazer matching the one Gosling wore during his Oscars number, along with sunglasses and a cowboy hat.

As Mendes' Instagram caption implies, she wasn't Gosling's Oscars plus-one. Instead, the Barbie actor took his sister Mandi, as he did at the 2017 awards ceremony. The siblings had a great time together, and jokes aside, Mendes was happy to support her husband from home. (Ahead of the ceremony, she also shared a reel featuring "I'm Just Ken," writing, "Always by my man.")

Gosling and Mendes share two daughters: seven-year-old Amada and nine-year-old Esmeralda. According to one source close to the couple (via People), Gosling and Mendes moved out of Los Angeles because "they didn't want the girls to grow up around other celebrity kids." 

Despite being two of the most famous people on the planet, the stars want a relatively normal life for their daughters. With that context in mind, it's clear Mendes' Instagram post is all in good fun—and that Gosling is a hands-on parent, too.

Selena Gomez has celebrated her Pisces bf Benny Blanco's 36th birthday with the sweetest words of love.

Taking to Instagram ahead of March 8 (or potentially at midnight depending on where in the world she currently is), the "Love You Like a Love Song" singer shared the absolute cutest series of photos and videos of her and the record producer being loved up as all heck.

She captioned the love fest, "Happy birthday baby! Your emotional endurance, positive disposition, unbelievable talent (that blows me away), undeniable humor and loving, kind heart absolutely kill me. I love you @itsbennyblanco"

Gomez restricted the comments so that only those whom she follows could respond.

The man himself wrote a string of lovey-dovey emojis, while other comments poured in from the likes of Ashley Benson, HAVEN, and Hung Vanngo.

Gomez and Blanco have been dating since late last year, and have been very open with the world about their sweet romance.

The two are often spotted out on dates together, such as sitting courtside at a basketball game, and share their outings on social media too.

Gomez recently called Blanco "my bes fwend," and Blanco made a TikTok tutorial for Valentine's Day of how he makes fried pickles to please his famous girlfriend.

Adorable romance aside, Gomez is totally thriving right now.

She recently released her new single "Love On," and is still smashing it with her makeup brand Rare Beauty and her mental health startup Wondermind, which she cofounded with mom Mandy Teefey. Go, girl!

Hailey Bieber's fashion takeover continues, even as the rumor mill swirls around her relationship with Justin Bieber.

Bieber ditched frigid city weather for the tropics, and although her whereabouts haven't been disclosed, she updated her Instagram with pictures of her latest beach adventure. The posts included a free lesson in dressing for spring break (or any warm-weather vacation).

The model snapped a shot of herself by the water in a bright cherry red bikini from Candice Swanepoel's swimwear brand Tropic Of C. Her two-piece set features a micro bralette and matching high-rise bottom with ties at the hip.

Bieber styled her beachside look with a coordinating pair of sporty red sunglasses by Bru Eyewear. She finished her outfit with an elevated coastal cowgirl spin, adding a Lack of Color raffia straw hat embellished with custom blue seashell and red starfish beading.

"I'll be here if ya need me," the model captioned her six-slide carousel on Instagram.

To note, there's an Easter egg in Bieber's post—a stick of baby pink blush, which she applied on her cheeks in her latest selfie. Knowing her strategic marketing skills and her history of allusive product placements (as seen with her newly launched lip gloss phone case), it wouldn't be a surprise if there's a Rhode blush product hitting the shelves soon.

Bieber's recent post follows weeks of online speculation surrounding her marriage to singer Justin Bieber, with claims that the relationship is currently in a rocky state.

Rumors of the duo's marital issues started circulating after Bieber's father, Stephen Baldwin, shared a post from Victor Marx—the founder of All Things Possible Ministries—on his Instagram story. The post included a prayer request for the couple.

"Christians, please, when you think of Justin & Hailey, take a moment to offer a little prayer for them to have wisdom, protection and to draw close to the Lord,” Marx captioned the post, which has now been deleted.

Around the time Bieber uploaded her vacation gallery, she also took to her Instagram story to debunk the claims. "Just FYI, the stories and constant 'blind items' I see on TikTok are 100% of the time wrong," Bieber shared. "Made out of thin air… Come from the land of delusion… So I know it may be fun feeding into these stories but just know they’re always false xx sorry to spoil it."

The vacation outfit inspiration she served up just before? That's very real.

Love is in the air for actress Millie Bobby Brown.

On Friday, March 1, the Stranger Things star attended the New York City premiere of her upcoming Netflix movie Damsel at the Paris Theater in Manhattan alongside her fiancé, Jake Bongiovi.

The 20-year-old actor wore a dazzling, silver floor-length Louis Vuitton gown, which featured a daring thigh-high slit and scale- and feather-like accents throughout. She paired the look with matching open-toed heels and soft, neutral makeup.

The next day, Brown shared a sweet Instagram post of a picture showing her holding hands with Bongiovi as the pair look into other's eyes and walk the streets of New York City, passing onlooking paparazzi seemingly without a care in the world.

"My forever prince," Brown captioned the post.

At 19, Brown announced her engagement to Jon Bon Jovi's son in April of last year.

In a previous interview with Glamour, Brown opened up about her decision to get engaged at a younger age.

"It’s like—I know I should make this movie now. I know I should write this book now. I know I should do this now," Brown told the outlet at the time. "It’s not because I can’t do it in 10 years—of course I can do it in 10 years. But why, when I know that it’s going to work now?

"Just like Florence will be there in 10 years. You’ll be able to see my movie in 10 years on TV. And I know that Jake and I will be OK," she continued. "It’s like, why wait? Let’s go for it."

In another Instagram post, Brown shared behind-the-scenes look of her Damsel New York city premiere look, showing off her Louis Vuitton ensemble.

"A damsel in a dress," she wrote.

In the same 2023 Glamour interview, Brown went on to say that because of the "wonderful, loving relationships" both her and her future husband witnessed via their parents, they both entered into dating with a "mutual drive" to find the same.

"His family were so wonderfully accepting of me and embraced me, and it’s so nice to find a second family in that," she added.

In May, 2023, singer and proud dad Jon Bon Jovi discussed his son's engagement, telling SiriusXM host Andy Cohen that he doesn't know if "age matters."

"You know, if you find the right partner and you grow together," Bon Jovi said at the time. "I think that would be my advice, really, is growing together is wise. Growing together. I think that all my kids have found the people that they think they can grow together with and we like 'em all!"

Britney Spears might just be a big fan of Janet Jackson's music (like the rest of us)—or she might be taking another swing at her ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake.

In a since-deleted Instagram post, Spears thanked Jackson for keeping her "dreams and heart alive."

"Thank you to this beautiful lady for keeping my dreams and heart alive," Spears wrote, "She's always been the deepest and brightest woman at the same time. She went through so much but I feel she is someone I will look up to for the rest of my life. Thank you for your music and your divine way of untangling intelligence to a far more clear view than anyone could ever imagine."

The heartfelt tribute was accompanied by a photo of Jackson's self-titled album, Janet, which was released back in 1993.

Spears and Jackson share more than musical prowess: they share a common enemy.

Spears and Timberlake's rocky history has recently resurfaced with the release of her memoir, The Woman In Me. In this autobiography, Spears discussed many aspects of her conservatorship and handling fame as a young woman. She also opened up about the darker aspects of her publicized relationship with Timberlake.

For example, she revealed that Timberlake repeatedly cheated on her while they were together, that he broke up with her in a two-word text message, that he pushed her to get an abortion, and that she suffered greatly from the fallout of their breakup.

A few weeks ago, Timberland seemingly shared his view on the criticism. Days after Spears said she was "in love with" his new song, the singer performed his 2002 hit "Cry Me a River" with a pretty pointed introduction.

"I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize to absolutely f****** nobody," Timberlake announced.

Many assumed this was about Spears, but fans of Jackson actually thought it could be about her. As while Spears opened the floodgates to examine Timberlake's actions, she's far from the only woman he has wronged.

Back in 2004, Jackson brought out a young Timberlake as a guest during her Super Bowl Halftime show. (This was two years after his breakup with Spears.)

Towards the end of the song, Timberlake ripped Jackson's costume, revealing one of her breasts to the crowd. Timberlake claimed this was an accident, but many disagreed upon seeing the footage. He also did little to stop the barrage of criticism Jackson received, as she was essentially barred from the industry and blamed entirely for her wardrobe malfunction.

Finally, in 2021, Timberlake apologized to both Spears and Jackson for how he "benefited from a system that condones misogyny and racism." However, he also went on to explain that this is the result of a "flawed" industry and "ignorance."

He was a Skater Boy, she was...Blake Lively!

As if we weren't jealous enough of Lively's fairytale marriage to Ryan Reynolds, she's now given us another reason to love them together. Lively shared a photo of her husband on her Instagram, declaring him to be her "Skater Boy."

In the photo, Reynolds is holding a skateboard and helmet, wearing a beanie hat, Converse sneakers, and sunglasses. The Deadpool star is offering his wife a shy smile.

The photo is accompanied by Avril Lavigne's iconic 2002 hit, "Sk8er Boi" with the lyrics flashing across the screen. Lively further tagged the famous singer and wrote, "Dreams really do come true."

Just about every girl dreamed of their own "Sk8er Boi" at the height of the song's popularity, and Lively is rubbing in the fact that she got one.

The couple always manage to have fun together on Instagram. Recently Reynolds took to Instagram to promote the new trailer for Deadpool 3, thinly veiled as a question to his wife.

“Has everyone seen the #Deadpool trailer?” he posted on Instagram, “Also has anyone seen my wife?” 

Lively made sure to return the favor as soon as she got home that evening after a busy day spent being besties with Taylor Swift. She posed in front of the same Deadpool trailer, with the text, "Honey, I'm home. My day was good. Yours?"

This recent post also matches the primary rule for their marriage, which LIvely shared during an episode of Amber Tamblyn’s Substack show “Further Ado." Tamblyn has been a friend of Lively's since they worked together on The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.

“When Ryan and I got together, we made a rule not to work at the same time so that we could always prioritize our personal life,” Lively explained.

When the couple started dating in 2011, Lively was in the midst of constant filming for Gossip Girl, and Reynolds starred in several movies, including The Change-Up and Safe House.

"That takes working really hard when we’re not,” she said. “Just like financial planning and sustaining that, it takes balance.”

If you woke up this morning and thought “Man, I’d like to see the inside of Jennifer Aniston’s walk-in closet today!”—good news, you’re in luck. The actress let the world inside her $21 million Bel Air mansion (casual) through several photos shared on Instagram as she got ready to attend the 2024 People’s Choice Awards.

“Taking in all the love from the night @peopleschoice,” Aniston wrote. “And @adamsandler you will always be an icon in my eyes!” (Aniston honored her good friend Adam Sandler with the People’s Icon Award at the show on Sunday.)

Page Six writes that Aniston “got dressed in her enormous closet, which could easily be the size of someone’s entire apartment,” the outlet writes. The area features numerous sleek shelving units, the outlet continues, which house her collection of designer garments; there is a long, wood aisle running down the center that leads to a large dresser. 

“Complete with high ceilings and recessed lighting, the closet also has a vanity area with a cozy blue chair where the actress can get her hair and makeup done,” Page Six reports.

Aniston’s glam squad took a selfie inside the closet, which gave fans another view of Aniston’s clothes on clothes on clothes. Aniston also included a photo of her two dogs lounging near one of her storage consoles, and also shared a video where “she blew a kiss at the camera while gliding through a living area in her palatial home,” Page Six writes. “The room included floor-to-ceiling windows that looked into a modern, luxury kitchen fitted with state-of-the-art appliances and wood cabinetry. Tons of natural light is able to pour into the contemporary space, which has a mix of gorgeous dark marble and moody wood-paneled floors.” 

Aniston’s furniture choices lean towards minimalistic and contemporary pieces. This isn’t the first time Aniston has let us inside her home through the beauty of social media—in 2020, she posed on her stone and glass terrace on Instagram, where she can enjoy views of her private garden. She also shared a look at her black marble kitchen countertops and matching backsplash behind her stove while preparing a (healthy) chocolate smoothie in 2021, and she has posted the inside of her bathroom several times as she takes us through hair tutorials, “flaunting her large glass and marble shower with gold hardware as well as her spa-like stone bathtub,” Page Six reports.

Despite their White Lotus characters never crossing paths, Meghann Fahy and Leo Woodall very much have, and they've confirmed their relationship in an adorable Instagram post.

Fahy shared a photo of the two of them walking in Boston with their arms wrapped around each other, captioned, "😊🍕💙." The post has already garnered over 100,000 likes in one day.

In the photo, Fahy is dressed down in jeans and a Cape Cod sweatshirt, while Woodall wears a white t-shirt, black jeans, and a baseball cap.

Woodall commented on the post, "Who is he?!" Fahy and 3,000 others liked this comment.

Many fans joked that this post (and declaration of their relationship) is in response to the attention Woodall has been getting for his role in the Netflix hit One Day. The remake of the 2011 film is based on the novel of the same name by David Nicholls.

"She saw us thirsting after him and had to set the record straight," one user commented. "Oh, she really said ‘Dex is mine,'" another joked, referring to Woodall's character, Dexter.

The two stars have played coy about their relationship for over a year since meeting on the set of The White Lotus.

In September 2022, Woodall shared a carousel post of photos of the cast together, including a selfie of him and Fahy. He captioned it, "That's amore," and Fahy commented, "I love you! I love these! I love you! 😘 ♥️ ." He replied, "Love you right back." (This is simply too cute.)

When asked by Andy Cohen whether the rumors of her and Woodall held any truth, Fahy cheekily responded, "I don't kiss and tell," and then clarified that they were "friends."

But by November 2023, there was no hiding it, as the pair were spotted sharing a kiss under an umbrella in New York City. (They're living a literal romcom.)

Woodall's turn in the spotlight on Fahy's Instagram isn't the only thing he can celebrate this week, as his role on One Day is skyrocketing him to heartthrob status. He plays Dex, an Oxford playboy whose life is changed by meeting Emma, played by Ambika Mod, and re-meeting her several times.

He told People that he was "very intrigued" by the adaptation and its large fan base, and explained, "There was definitely a serious responsibility that me and Ambika both felt to tell their stories."

Supermodel Christie Brinkley is no longer wasting time disliking what she sees in the mirror, and there's a deep lesson in there for all of us.

For her birthday earlier this month, as she celebrated turning 70, Brinkley wrote herself a very wholesome poem about self-love, which she then kindly shared with the rest of us via Instagram, alongside mirror selfies of her looking happy, strong and workout-ready.

She wrote:

"Looking in the mirror on my 70th Birthday and what do I see,
I’m finally happy with the person looking back back at me
I’m no longer critical and demanding
now I’m grateful and understanding
I’ve put this body thru it
I’ve broken every bone,
in tiny miracles I’m all healed
in my heart and soul I’m home
It’s taken 70 years to get here,
in tears and joy I’ve found my happy ,
so now I’m going to end this poem
before I get too sappy!

"Happy Birthday Indeed!"

Commenters were completely taken with Brinkley's words and energy, with one writing, "Happy 70th Birthday, Christie!!! You are beyond blessed with beauty, grace, elegance, vibrancy and wit! May you continue to enjoy good health and happiness…you make 70 look fabulous!!"

And BTW, the supermodel's Alo bra is available to buy if you're eyeing it up (it's also a fave of fellow fashion girlie Kendall Jenner).

If Brinkley's Instagram is anything to go by, she appears to spend her days looking fabulous, smiling and laughing with joy, and being a supportive mom—as exemplified by her sweet show of support for daughter Alexa Ray Joel when she dueted with dad Billy Joel at Madison Square Garden. What a life!

It feels like only last week that Olivia Rodrigo was singing about being old enough to get her "driver's license," and now she's 21 years old.

The Grammy-winning singer celebrated her 21st birthday with close friends and shared photos on her Instagram. Guests at this star-studded party included Tate McRae, Conan Gray, Iris Apatow, and The Kid LAROI, amongst others.

Surprisingly, there was no sign of Louis Partridge, whom Rodrigo has been rumored to be dating. The young pair have been spotted indulging in some heavy PDA in recent months.

Rodrigo showed off her funfetti cakes (plural!) and stunning outfit for the night. The singer wore a short black halter-neck dress with cutouts along the side. She styled her hair in an updo with a loose strand framing her face and completed the look with classic black winged eyeliner and red lips.

She captioned the Instagram post, "today is my last day of being able to underage drink (hypothetically) !!!!" (Hypothetically, of course!)

The comments were filled with well-wishers, including several recognizable names. Rachel Zegler wrote, "cutie pie angel," and Camilla Cabello commented, "omg 😍😍😍"

What can we expect of Rodrigo now that she's a legal adult? Hopefully more great music. Last September, Rodrigo released GUTS, the follow-up to her debut album, SOUR. It was extremely popular, and she recently performed on Saturday Night Live, where she sang "vampire" and "all-american bitch."

She has also shared how she'd like to do more acting, speaking to Variety on the red carpet of the Governors Awards. “I really want to do a coming-of-age thing maybe before I’m actually of age," she said.  "Maybe I am of age already. I just love telling stories, whether that be in a song or a movie, that’s really something that really excites me.”

Rodrigo got her start in acting in two Disney series: Bizaardvark and High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. Rodrigo left the latter in 2022 to pursue her music.

It has almost been a year since Joe Alwyn and Taylor Swift called it quits last April and set into motion what is now known as the year of celebrity breakups. The year later claimed more victims like former couples Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner and Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello.

So much has happened since then for Swift, including a brief fling with Matty Healy and her real-life rom-com with current boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Just last week, Kelce and Swift made our High School Musical dreams come true as they shared a kiss after the Super Bowl, where the Chiefs emerged victorious in a nail biter game.

But since the Swift/Alwyn breakup, little has been heard about Alwyn. The actor has always been private about his personal life, and as a result his relationship with Swift was also kept behind closed doors. At last, though, Alwyn broke his silence with a photo dump on his Instagram yesterday after five long months of silence.

The photo carousel had no caption, yet seemed to start a conversation; at the very least, he appeared to aim to update fans about his life lately.

Photos included a shot of the actor snapping a photo of himself in the mirror, Alwyn photobombing Brian Cox at a pre-BAFTA party, a throwback to his childhood, and more.

One photo was a meme from the U.K.'s The Office, with Ricky Gervais' character saying, "Different drinks for different needs."

One can't help but wonder whether this sudden emergence is connected to Swift's announcement of her upcoming album, The Tortured Poet’s Department, which will come out on April 19. Many have linked the album's title to Alwyn's group chat with fellow British actors Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott called "The Tortured Man Club."

Can we expect a breakup album at last from Swift, who has always been emotionally honest in her work?

The track list has been released and includes a song called, "So Long, London," which many view as a nod to the time spent in this city over the course of her six-year relationship with Alwyn.

This is also a stark contrast to her song "London Boy" on her 2019 album Lover, which was known to be inspired by Alwyn.

One fan expressed a similar thought and posted on X, "I've seen more Joe Alwyn since the TTPD [The Tortured Poets Department] announcement than in his six years being with Taylor and that says a lot I think."

Another user considered it a direct challenge to Swift: "Y'all did Joe Alwyn just send a 'bring it on I'm not afraid' message to Taylor??? Look at his most recent post. The filter, the meme, the scenery...it's so yoyok ["You're On Your Own Kid"] and the lakes coded, like bro. Wtf???"

Some fans seem in favor of his sudden reappearance, like one X user who wrote  "Joe Alwyn coming out of his Instagram hiatus to post a carousel of memes and sepia toned photos. Gotta love an unbothered king."

It's no secret that red is on a hot streak this winter. Pops of the color have been appearing throughout New York Fashion Week—Prabal Gurung, Retrofete, and Aknvas all included hues in their fall 2024 collections—and stars like Kylie Jenner, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Kelly Rutherford have embraced the hue in full force. The latest to do so is none other than Hailey Bieber.

In between teasing Rhode Beauty launches and redefining statement outerwear, Bieber snapped a mirror selfie on Instagram Stories in a deep maroon Mirror Palais cropped knit cardigan and matching mini-length skort, creating a minimalist, '90s style statement. 

Bieber finished her outfit with Gucci's kitten-heeled pumps and Jackie 1961 shoulder bag, each crafted from glossy dark red leather. The "Ancora" hue, seen in the Italian label's spring 2024 collections, has become a brand hallmark under Sabato de Sarno's creative direction; it's also core to the aforementioned red color trend, which includes tomato, pepper, and cherry tones seen in lines by Ferragamo, Miu Miu, and Valentino.

While embracing one of winter's top colors, Bieber's outfit also touched on the '90s minimalism, monochrome dressing, crop tops, and shoulder bag trends to create a look that was truly of the moment. It wasn't the model's only sharp outfit of the season, either. In January, she wore a black leather coat, gray cardigan, boxy jeans, and Miu Miu's penny-strapped kitten heels to take in a Los Angeles Lakers basketball game alongside friends Sarah Staudinger, Kendall Jenner, and Lauren Perez.

As the new year begins, so has Bieber's streak of nonchalantly put-together outfits. Below, discover pieces to create your own Bieber-inspired red outfit this season.

Bella Hadid is a model, street style icon, and, apparently, a certified horse girl. If you follow the supermodel on Instagram, you might've noticed that her most recent posts have taken a turn toward the Wild West—a far departure from the rest of the fashion world during fashion month.

Hadid has been spending her time on a ranch in Weatherford, Texas, competing in horseback riding competitions with her horse, Metallic Tito. And with years of horseback riding under her belt, Hadid knows how to make her rodeo outfits a true fashion moment.

One of her most recent Instagram carousels featured a series of photos of Hadid wearing a Y2K-inspired tank top under a striped button-down shirt, styled with bell-bottom blue jeans, a brown western-style belt, and cowboy boots.

This wasn't Hadid's only recent brush with cowboy style. The model and equestrian also posted a set of photos on Instagram in her competition garb, consisting of a brown long-sleeve button-down, fringe leather chaps, and a wide-brim cowboy hat.

Hadid is as dedicated to competing as she is to ruling the Western aesthetic. She and her horse qualified for their first finals together, per the model's Instagram caption.

Both Bella and her sister, Gigi, have been longtime horse lovers and equestrians. Bella's recent endeavors have been linked to a budding romance with rodeo star Adan Banuelos. Though the two's relationship status has yet to be verified, rumors of the two of them as a couple started swirling back in October.

Hadid's Western style isn't the most traditional, per se, considering that her posts include wearing colorful early aughts embellished tank top while sitting on the back of a tractor. Nonetheless, it's a compelling case for embracing the the horse girl look. Hadid can revive just about any trend. In this case, she's keeping cowboycore alive and well.

Hadid isn't the only celebrity bringing Western style to the forefront of 2024. Pharrell's recent Louis Vuitton runway show featured several cowboy-adjacent looks, and Beyonce cosigned the trend at the Grammys wearing a western-inspired outfit from Pharrell's menswear collection. One question remains: "Will Hadid make her return to the runway anytime soon, or is she focused on equestrian greatness?"

Ariana Grande's latest outfit combined three seemingly disparate inspirations—monochrome dressing, TikTok's balletcore trend, and her upcoming Wicked musical movie—into a single, all-pink look. Following her absence at the 2024 Grammy Awards last night, the "Yes, And?" singer wore a pale pink gown worthy of the Good Witch herself.

As shared to Instagram, Grande posed in a pink Balenciaga dress covered in sheer layered bows. Set against a semi-translucent base, the floor-length piece's tone, textures, and bow-tied waistline instantly channeled Galinda—the lead character Grande will play alongside Cynthia Ervivo in the upcoming Wicked musical film adaptation. Stylist Mimi Cuttrell emphasized the look's feminine nature with a set of matching silky pumps, as well as contrasting pale taupe tights and lab-grown diamond stud earrings by Smiling Rocks.

Though Grande's outfit visually channeled Galinda's glamour, it also leaned into the ultra-feminine "balletcore" movement. The TikTok trend, which highlights ballerina-inspired details ranging from pink, black, and white color palettes to silk bows, thin-strapped flats, and rosettes, has grown as a top fashion moment in the early 2020s. Other stars who've gotten in touch with their inner prima ballerinas through fashion including Sydney Sweeney, Emma Stone, Gigi Hadid, and Hailey Bieber; Jennifer Lopez recently test drove the trend through a layered nude manicure.

Grande's whimsical dress also marked her latest outing in a dance-inspired look. In January, the musician released her "Yes, And...?" music video, which found her performing for music critics in a black-and-white cutout leotard by Rodarte with a black Alaïa skirt, sheer tights, and low-heeled pumps. The same color palette was also seen in the video's original inspiration: Paula Abdul's own music video for her 1989 track "Cold Hearted."

While Grande's recent outfits have been tied to characters she's playing on film and in her music videos, there's no doubting that they reflect her current personal style era. Her fashion philosophy, she told Vogue in a 2021 cover story, is to be as authentic as possible: "I think it is important to stay true to who you are and pick things that you really, really love,” she said.

Anne Hathaway has always embraced a beauty transformation for the sake of a movie role, from wearing blunt bangs to play intern Andrea Sachs in The Devil Wears Prada, to wearing a retro blonde crop for a villainous turn in the psychological thriller Eileen. Now, it appears she's adding another beauty transformation to her résumé. For her upcoming movie, The Idea Of You, Hathaway chopped her bangs into a micro-fringe. It's a bit similar to the style she rocked whilst working under Miranda Priestly—with a 2024 upgrade. 

Hathaway, a star and producer of the upcoming movie, shared a glimpse at her latest hair transformation on Instagram. Obviously, I've spent some time inspecting the shot for the sake of her beauty. First, there's the hair update: Her bangs are mid-length and a bit wispy, falling somewhere in between French girl bangs and a classic blunt chop. Then, there are the smaller touches bringing her understated look together: white nail polish on her fingers and a natural shade of lipstick on her lips. 

Getting into character wasn't just about a haircut; it also came down to everyday wardrobing. With her arm around co-star Nicholas Galitzine, the Ocean's 8 star wears a navy blue T-shirt with criss-crossing ties up the front, plain blue jeans, and tortoiseshell sunglasses. The rest of her on-set look includes a turquoise watch and chunky gold rings.

Hathaway had posted a still from the trailer in celebration of The Idea of You taking the closing night slot at South by Southwest later this spring. In the film, Hathaway plays a single mother who strikes up an unexpected romance with a 24-year-old man and lead singer of August Moon, a wildly popular band. When she meets him at Coachella, they instantly click—but that's just the start of a bigger story based off the novel by Robinne Lee. The actress can't wait for audiences to tune in to her version. "I really think it’s something special—I’m so glad SXSW agrees!" she wrote in the caption underneath her new hairstyle's debut.

We're already leaving space on our calendar to see this film—and those micro bangs—in action when it hits theaters in May.

Kim Kardashian has been revealing more of herself on social media lately, and we don't just mean that cut-out dress!

She's been sharing more glimpses of her personal life, including photos with her children, partaking in Elf on the Shelf, and filming TikToks with her oldest daughter, North West.

Now Kardashian is getting even more real with fans, as she shared photos and videos of her psoriasis on her Instagram Story.

She zoomed in on the sizable rash and said, "How crazy is my psoriasis right now, guys?"

She added "It's like all up my leg and I don't know what's happening but I got to figure this out…this is crazy."

Kardashian did not hold back with fans and expressed the discomfort caused by the rash: "Not gonna lie, this is painful," she said. "Not sure what my triggers are. I haven't changed my diet. I've tried everything! Psoriasis sucks."

The reality TV star was first diagnosed with psoriasis in 2011. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disorder that causes skin cells to multiply too rapidly, resulting in a body rash that's often scaly, itchy, and inflamed.

Kardashian has spoken about that initial diagnosis. In 2019, she wrote an essay about her autoimmune disorder for her sister Kourtney Kardashian's Poosh site.

"One night, I woke up to use the restroom and I physically couldn't pick up my phone," she explained. "I thought it was strange but maybe I just slept on my hands weird and I was so tired, I didn't need to be checking my phone at that hour anyway. I fell right back asleep."

She continued "I woke up that morning and I still couldn't pick up my phone. I was freaking out—I couldn't even pick up a toothbrush, my hands hurt so badly. As the day went on, I got a bit more movement in my hands, but they really hurt from the inside—I felt it in my bones."

She was initially diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and lupus before her medical team realized it was psoriatic arthritis, which can stem from psoriasis. 

On her Instagram Story, Kardashian expressed that she frequently experiences psoriasis, but not this extent. It "usually" occurs in the same spot on her calf, but this time has migrated to her thighs.

"Just wanted to share my journey with you guys," she wrote.

While these posts may seem out of place with the general glamour of Kardashian's social feed, they help to normalize conditions like psoriasis and remind people that there is more going on behind the Instagram photos.

But after these posts, it was straight back to her regular content, with videos of Kardashian getting her makeup done.

This personal reveal comes just weeks after Kardashian defended her use of tanning beds, claiming it helps her psoriasis.

Kardashian had posted a TikTok video touring the new offices of her relaunched beauty brand SKKN by Kim. It followed the "Of Course" trend, and one part had Kardashian saying, "I'm Kim Kardashian, of course I have a tanning bed and a red light bed in my office."

Fans were not impressed and called her out for promoting tanning beds. They especially found it tactless given the link to skin cancer, which her sister Khloé Kardashian has had twice.

Allure released an article called "Please, Kim Kardashian, Don't Try to Normalize Tanning Beds," which discussed the high risk of skin cancer associated with indoor tanning. 

Kardashian wrote a reply to this article on X, and said, "I have psoriasis and it really helps when it's bad. But I don't use it too often."

As Allure pointed out, "Contrary to popular belief, UV exposure can be more harmful than helpful in the treatment of psoriasis."

The more you know.

Earlier this month Britney Spears vociferously declared, in no uncertain terms, that she was done with the music industry. Following reports that she was working on a new record, Spears cleared it up on Instagram on January 3, writing “Just so we’re clear most of the news is trash !!! They keep saying I’m turning to random people to do a new album … I will never return to the music industry !!!”

Okay, that’s her prerogative (see what we did there?), but Spears once again took to Instagram, clad in a sheer bodysuit and dancing, to announce a new project with a compelling title: “SEX N DIAMONDS.” But if it’s not new music—what, pray tell, is it? (And is it, you know, “Sex in Diamonds,” or “Sex and Diamonds”? Both intriguing, but, you know, we ask the tough questions around here.) 

Unfortunately, for now at least, Spears didn’t elaborate. Is it a part two of her record-breaking memoir, The Woman in Me? A tour? (Or does that count as a “return to the music industry”?) A reality show? A scripted show? Britney! We count on your honesty and transparency—and we need more details.

Page Six phrases it aptly when it describes Spears “gracefully prancing around in [a] sheer glittery ‘fit with floral designs covering her bosom,” adding that “her bodysuit, which she paired with brown platform heels, appeared to give fans hope she would be hitting the stage once again.” The caption, verbatim, read “Tease for new project coming up soon !!! SEX N DIAMONDS,” to which she also added an image with a bunch of flowers. 

“She’s picking up that pen again,” a fan wrote on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter). Another wrote “Gotta drop it ASAP.” (Agreed.) A third added “Mother is coming y’all.”

Spears’ insistence that she had kicked the music industry to the curb for good upset many a fan of hers (read: all of ‘em), but maybe—and excuse the speculation—she just meant that she was done with the music industry unless it was on her own terms? After all, in that same January 3 Instagram, she also wrote “When I write [music], I write for fun or I write for other people !!!” adding that she is a “ghostwriter” who has “written over 20 songs for other people” over the past two years.

Spears herself hasn’t dropped solo tracks in a while, but she was featured on “Hold Me Closer,” a collaboration with Elton John, in 2022, and “Mind Your Business” with will.i.am last year. Of working with John following the end of her conservatorship battle (which was terminated in 2021), she wrote in her memoir “Recording ‘Hold Me Closer’ and putting it out into the world was a fantastic experience. It didn’t feel good—it felt great.” She reiterated that her priority isn’t pushing her music forward, but rather to “find” herself.

“SEX N DIAMONDS.” Consider us intrigued, Britney.

Ed Sheeran—for reasons unknown—has tried and failed to serenade some cats, and it wasn't his first time pulling this stunt, either.

The famous ginger installed himself in a cat café with his acoustic guitar and tried to sing his ballad "Thinking Out Loud" while the felines were eating, but it was immediately clear that they would have far preferred if he'd kept his thoughts to himself, thank you very much.

Sheeran posted a video of the interaction on Instagram, which showed a bunch of cats running away from him in fear as soon as he strummed his instrument—except for one brave (or hungry, I guess) ginger cat.

A commenter joked, "I love how the only one that wasn't scared of the guitar was a ginger"

As he sang, some of the cats appeared to glare at him for disturbing their mealtime, all while keeping a safe distance. Only one unbothered gray cat stuck to his munching.

Someone else wrote, "I am the last lone grey cat here for food and a concert"

Sheeran captioned his video, "Trying to win over the same kitties that ran away from me in 2014, same results" because he had tried to sing the exact same song to the exact same cats at the time the single came out, and they'd been exactly as unimpressed at the time.

The singer semi-regularly likes to play gigs in out-of-left-field settings, such as—say—a Lego store in a Minnesota shopping mall. Well, you do you, boo!
