GRAPPLING WITH FATHERHOOD! They Roughhouse With Their Kids — and Get a Little Too Competitive! Kevin Hart shared a throwback of himself playfully wrestling with his now-18-year-old son, Hendrix — or at least, we think it’s playful! The comedian went full competitive dad as he held his boy in a headlock, perhaps reminding the kid who’s boss. Hart joked that his son towering over him “pisses me off,” but also gushed that he’s “beyond proud” of his “righthand man for life.” It doesn’t look like Hendrix has much say in that matter! WHEN SWIPING RIGHT GOES WRONG! They Are Fed Up With Dating Apps! Dakota Fanning may be on the exclusive dating app Raya, but her pet peeves will seem familiar to anyone who’s ever swiped right. “I’m over it,”…

COMING IN SANDY! Beach Bum Kendall Jenner wasn’t afraid to get a little dirty as she turned 30. NOV. 3 Bathing Beauty Tracee Ellis Ross shared a “bathing suit retrospective” in honor of her 53rd birthday, prompting Padma Lakshmi to comment, “You were born to wear very little.” OCT. 29 Cleaning Up Nice “This is sexy, this is audacious,” said Gabrielle Union, sharing an outdoor shower snap on her 52nd birthday in 2024. Plush Lifestyle “I begin 58 with nothing but sunshine and a smile — and the hope that the best is yet to come,” said Paulina Poriz-kova in April 2023.

Chase Stokes and Kelsea Ballerini’s September breakup appeared to be in the couple’s rearview mirror on Nov. 7 when they were spotted dancing in Croatia, but less than two weeks later, the cracks in their relationship started to resurface. Taking to his Instagram Story on Nov. 20, Stokes cryptically told his followers that he’d been “blocked,” adding, “I’m sorry for those who believed in us. It is what it is. Onwards and upwards.” Multiple sources confirm to Us that the pair, who started dating in January 2023, have, indeed, split again — and this time, it may be for good. “They have been so rocky and toxic,” one insider says, adding that “jealousy and bad communication” were factors in their latest separation. A second source shares that Stokes, 33, is…

DECEMBER 16, 2013 ➽ Fast & Furious star Paul Walker tragically died in a car crash on Nov. 30 at age 40, leaving behind a 15-year-old daughter, Meadow. “He lived his life with compassion and kindness,” friend Shayne Tingle told Us. ➽ Insiders revealed Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were eyeing the Palace of Versailles near Paris for their “over-the-top” wedding. Ultimately, the now-exes said “I do” at a different — but equally grand — venue, the Forte di Belvedere in Italy, on May 24, 2014. ➽ Just nine weeks after Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth called off their engagement, a source told Us they were exchanging “flirty” texts again, which the Hunger Games star initiated. They were officially back together by 2016 and married in 2018, only to divorce…

In the inaugural on-camera interview for our new Just Like Us video series, Oliver Hudson should not be as open and down-to-earth as he is. After all, he’s known the spotlight since birth: His mom is Goldie Hawn, and his stepdad is Kurt Russell — both excellent candidates for Most Popular titles in the yearbook of Hollywood. Growing up, he would put on a kid-size tux and join one or both of them on the red carpet alongside younger sister Kate Hudson. Later, his poster-worthy good looks sent him on the same career path as Mom, 80, and “Pa,” 74. (Rounding out the siblings: Hawn and Russell’s son, actor Wyatt Russell, 39, and Kurt’s son with ex-wife Season Hubley, Boston Russell, 45.) But Hudson has no attitude, no narcissism, and…

THE MOMENT: Is That… an Armadillo? Friends Offered Up a New Holiday Hero 25 Years Ago Friends already had a rep for standout Thanksgiving episodes when the hit show pivoted — to Hanukkah. And nothing says Festival of Lights like an armored mammal! On Dec. 14, 2000, NBC aired “The One With the Holiday Armadillo,” a quirky crowd-pleaser about Ross (David Schwimmer) trying to teach Christmasloving son Ben (Cole Sprouse) about Hanukkah. But Ben holds tight to Santa, so Ross seeks out the classic red-and-white suit… and ends up with an armadillo costume. “It is maybe Friends’ craziest episode,” writer Greg Malins tells Us. WHO WAS INVOLVED Schwimmer and Sprouse were joined, of course, by the sitcom’s beloved cast: Jennifer Aniston as Rachel, Lisa Kudrow as Phoebe, Matthew Perry as…

Who among Us hasn’t tried (and failed!) to summon enthusiasm for a well-intentioned but misguided holiday present? “There is no way I was excited about that travel version of Clue,” quipped Mandy Moore, sharing a throwback photo of herself getting the mystery game as a gift in 1994. It’s the thought that counts — but judging from the look on Moore’s face, a Beanie Baby would’ve been preferable! Regrets only: Moore blames her mother for allowing her to curl and temporarily color her hair at age 10. “Permed bangs? MOM,” cracked the This Is Us alum, who said she also should’ve had her braces for more than six months because “my teeth are not straight.” But how about those multicolored rubber bands?…

Off to the Races Jay-Z and Beyoncé felt the need for speed at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, where they joined F1 star Lewis Hamilton for a “hot lap,” reaching 200 mph! LAS VEGAS, NOV. 22 Everybody Still Loves Raymond Holy crap! Nearly three decades after Everybody Loves Raymond first graced our small screens, cast members Brad Garrett, Ray Romano, Madylin Sweeten, Monica Horan, Patricia Heaton and Sullivan Sweeten joined forces for a 30th anniversary special on CBS. NOV. 24 Same Style, New Guy! Jennifer Aniston made her public debut with boyfriend Jim Curtis at Elle’s Women in Hollywood celebration, donning a halter-neck Ralph Lauren dress similar to a look she wore with then-beau Brad Pitt at the Cannes Film Festival over 20 years ago. L.A., NOV. 17 When Stars Align…

KYLIE & TIMOTHÉE Still ‘Committed’ to One Another Despite split rumors, the makeup mogul and the actor are stronger than ever The internet was ablaze with breakup buzz when Timothée Chalamet was noticeably absent from girlfriend Kylie Jenner’s side at her mom Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday party on Nov. 8. But an insider assures Us that Jenner, 28, and Chalamet, 29, are “still very much together” and “committed” to one another. Explaining that the actor wasn’t at the celebration because he’s been on set for the forthcoming third installment of Dune, the insider adds: “He and Kylie FaceTime every day. It is very serious between them. Everyone adores them together, and he’s even been present in the kids’ lives, which makes Kylie so happy.” (She shares daughter Stormi, 7, and…

After 10 seasons, Queer Eye is coming to an end next year. “It was really such a great experience,” Jonathan Van Ness, the Netflix show’s Emmy-winning grooming expert, tells Us. “Having an opportunity to connect with people to bring them some light and joy in their lives is something that I’ll always be so grateful that we got to do.” Van Ness, 38, rebooted Queer Eye in 2018 alongside Tan France, Antoni Porowski, Karamo Brown and Bobby Berk, the latter of whom has since been replaced by Jeremiah Brent. “It’s all happened so fast,” Van Ness says, “and I feel like, in some ways, I haven’t even really had a chance to process that legacy or process the impact that we’ve made.” Although the series is wrapping up, the hairstylist has…

As soon as Heather Gay’s checks from The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City started rolling in, she booked an appointment with her plastic surgeon. “It’s part of my job now to look good,” Gay, 51, told Bustle in an interview published Nov. 12, noting that she felt she was at her “lowest physical beauty” when she was cast on the Bravo reality series in 2019. Now that she “can afford it,” the single mom of three is gung ho about cosmetic touch-ups. It helps that she owns Beauty Lab + Laser in Utah. “I get everything for free,” she boasted, calling herself “the guinea pig for any new service.” Still, Gay estimates she’s had $200,000 worth of work done over the years — adding that it’s been “worth every…

All Her Fault. Task. Apples Never Fall. They look and feel like prestige television, but they’re prestigey at best, and they’re just three examples of many. And listen — I’m not knocking them! Prestigey can be fun! Last April, The New York Times’ chief TV critic James Ponie-wozik introduced us to “the comfortable problem of mid TV.” After years of masterful work in every genre, from The Sopranos to PEN15, an abundance of supply (new streamers every day) and demand (us, with our dwindling attention spans and intensifyingly quick consumption) resulted in a lot of slick big-budget shows that were… fine. Where we once had 2017’s impeccable first season of the Liane Moriarty adaptation Big Little Lies, we got 2024’s tepid Apples (also a Moriarty adaptation with a standout cast).…

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas for the royal family. At Windsor Castle, a 20-foot Nordmann fir tree — cut from the grounds of Windsor Great Park and wrapped in thousands of twinkling lights — stands tall at the end of St George’s Hall, while a second smaller one sparkles in the Crimson Drawing Room. Over at Buckingham Palace, three majestic trees sit in the Marble Hall and festive garland adorns the grand staircase. And at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Scotland, the royal dining room table is laid with sugared fruits and foliage. Preparations are also underway at Sandringham House, the picturesque 20,000-acre Norfolk estate where King Charles III will be hosting this year’s festivities alongside his wife, Queen Camilla. (Queen Elizabeth II began holding Christmas at…

The host of Magnolia Network and Food Network’s Gingerbread Land: The Biggest Little Holiday Competition did not get to sample the goods. “It is artwork. It’s not necessarily, like, let me crack that off and eat it,” Hudson says of the “architectural masterpieces” the bakers are creating via brown sugar and molasses. As a fan of cooking shows and someone whose family is “very much into Christmas,” he notes that getting hired for the series (Mondays, 9 p.m.; streams next day on Hulu and Discovery+) “was just a perfect fit.” And the experience? Surprisingly emotional: “I had no clue I was gonna get weepy three times because [the contestants] care so much.”…

Country star Tim McGraw took tree trimming to new heights when he fearlessly tackled this insanely tall tannenbaum that appeared to be two stories high. Perched on a ladder, he joked that his wife, singer Faith Hill, was “trying to get rid of me before Christmas.” Garcelle Beauvais is feeling festive. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum tells Us she’s focusing on family this season, with her two sons, grandson and new baby granddaughter. “I just want to soak up all the time I can with them,” she says. And this year’s decor reflects that joy: “Now that we have a granddaughter, you’ve got to do pink!” Kourtney Kardashian Barker flips holiday decor on its head. The Poosh founder’s upside-down Christmas tree proves that even classic holiday traditions can…

’Tis the season! The Mean Girls alum continues to serve up Queen of Christmas spirit with her new romcom, She’s Making a List (Dec. 6, 8 P.M. on Hallmark Channel). She’s also launching the Lacey Chabert Collection, which features Hallmark holiday products such as Christmas cards, ornaments, serving trays and festive dishware. But behind the Hallmark glow, is everyday life at home with her husband, David Nehdar, and their 9-year-old daughter, Julia, just as merry? What’s the last thing you ordered online? More Christmas stuff! Ornaments, some gold hooks, because I’m in full-on decorating mode. What’s one bad habit that you’re trying to break? I’m trying not to worry so much, to just try my best and move on. Who’s the last person you texted? My sister. What’s your go-to…

Do You Wanna Be a Snowman? Kate Hudson’s daughter, Rani, now 7, did her own thing while her mom put her face in a frozen frame in December 2022. Double the Fun Sanaa Lathan had a blonde moment at Pussycat Gelato, where she enjoyed a scoop “so good I had to do the Pussycat Gelato dance.” SEDONA, ARIZONA, AUG. 6 Like Newlyweds Does this count as a vow renewal?

T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach are already in the thick of wedding planning! Two months after announcing their engagement, a source tells Us that the former GMA3 coanchors turned couple are eyeing Turks and Caicos, Paris and Tulum, Mexico, as possible locations for their nuptials. “They want a destination wedding because they don’t want a media frenzy,” the source says. “June 2026 has been discussed. Nothing is solidified just yet.” Holmes, 48, and Robach, 52, plan on inviting only 50 to 100 guests “at the most,” per the source, who shares that the brideand groom-to-be would love for their kids from their previous marriages to walk them down the aisle. “They want their union solidified, and to share vows in front of their loved ones to make it official,” the…

Six months after finalizing their “tense” divorce, Hugh Jackman and his ex-wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, are “doing better,” a source tells Us. “They’ve been slowly rebuilding communication the last couple months.” Jackman, 57, and Furness, 70, have even “met on a few occasions to talk about unresolved issues,” according to the source, who blames their initial “distance” on lawyers “telling them not to speak” while their divorce was ongoing. Though the former couple — who were married for 29 years and share son Oscar, 25, and daughter Ava, 20 — also had issues over the Tony Award winner’s romance with his Music Man costar Sutton Foster (Furness released a statement in May about navigating the “traumatic journey of betrayal”), the source notes it was only “a matter of time” before they made…

She was the embodiment of the girl next door for ’90s teens, but off screen, Mena Suvari was fighting battles darker than anyone knew. “The sexual abuse that started for me at age 12, it really took me,” Suvari, 46, tells Us. “I still have confusion and reservations around acknowledging I was raped then, and I really suffered from that.” That trauma was just the first in a cycle of abuse and toxic relationships that the American Pie star would endure before she even turned 20. Now, Suvari is determined to be a guiding light for other victims as the new voice of Childhelp’s National Child Abuse Hotline. She says, “If I had known someone who could have steered me toward this resource, that could have been life-changing for me.”…

Prince Harry and wife Meghan will be celebrating the season close to home in Montecito, California, with their kids, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4. “Every single holiday is a new adventure,” Meghan told Marie Claire in 2024, adding, “we’re at the age where I just can’t wait to see it through their lens every year.” (She also noted that a favorite family tradition is putting out “carrots for the reindeer.”) In the trailer for her new Netflix special, With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration, which airs Dec. 3, the Suits alum offers a glimpse of what the holidays look like at home as she shares tips on decorating cookies, decking the halls and making wreaths. (She also exchanges a kiss with Harry and declares, “I love the holiday season.”)…
