Josh Hutcherson Has Spoken Out About the Backlash He Received From Taylor Swift’s Fans
The Hunger Games star Josh Hutcherson has recalled being labelled a ‘monster’ on the internet after his 2025 comments that he was not a Taylor Swift fan.
“I’m not a Swiftie,” Hutcherson previously reported in a viral video interview with i-D Magazine. “Very much not. No shade, all respect, but definitely not.”
The backlash from these comments reportedly turned the internet against him, with Hutcherson recalling: “that is why I don’t want to be online.”
Who Is Matthew Kim, a.k.a. BM? Meet the Star Who Plays Woosh In ‘Beef’ Season 2
The K-pop rapper makes his acting debut in the acclaimed Netflix anthology drama.
For the second season of Netflix’s acclaimed drama Beef, creator Lee Sung-jin recruited rising and veteran stars from Korea to tell a cross-cultural tale. Among the standout K-drama actors, one star is better known in the music world: Matthew Kim, a.k.a. K-pop rapper BM.
Kim makes his acting debut as Woosh, a mysterious tennis coach who arrives at the central country club alongside its new chaebol owner, Chairwoman Park (Youn Yuh-jung). Instead of being attached to the chairwoman’s side like her assistant Eunice (Seoyeon Jang), Woosh is busy hawking K-beauty products and procedures to the club’s wealthy clientele. Still, the seemingly harmless himbo is hiding some major secrets (though he may or may not be aware of it).
This Immersive David Bowie Exhibition Is An Insight Into The Man Behind The Mythology
I’m going to caveat what’s to come with a confession – I don’t know that much about David Bowie. I of course know that he is one of the most influential musicians and performers of the 20th century; and yes, I know a fair number of his songs, largely, thanks to a fleeting Christiane F. obsession in my late teens that had me listening to “Heroes” on repeat. In brief, David Bowie is a figure I’ve always known to be essential in the shaping of modern pop culture – a key reference point for much of the high-production stagecraft, character-building through style, and proclivity for “eras” that has come to define it since; I’d just never really taken the time to discern how.
Conveniently, then, David Bowie: You Are Not Alone, a new exhibition at London’s Lightroom, offers a succinct yet comprehensive introduction – an hour-long immersion not just inside Bowie’s world, but also his mind.
The Art of Gifting…with Lydia King
Liberty’s buying and merchandising director shares her top tips for mastering wedding gifting
When I’m choosing a wedding gift, I always look for something the couple can enjoy together – something that feels considered and lasting, rather than purely functional. I’m drawn to pieces that carry a sense of craftsmanship or story, whether that’s beautifully made tableware, glassware or something for the home that becomes part of their everyday rituals. It’s about finding something that feels personal to them, but also marks the significance of the moment.
Thoughtfulness is always the priority. I try to choose something that shows I’ve really considered the couple — their style, how they live, what they’ll genuinely use and enjoy. The best gifts feel personal and enduring, something that becomes part of their home over time rather than something purely decorative.
Would You Let Astrology Plan Your Wedding? More Couples Are.
Astrology is becoming the latest addition to the wedding planning checklist, promising meaning, alignment and the “perfect” date. But as couples look to the stars for answers, Mischa Smith asks, is this a genuine ritual, or simply another way to optimise an already over-engineered day?
When one couple began planning their Ibizan wedding, they weren’t just thinking about the venue or the guest list; they were thinking about the energy. Working with astrologer Clarisse Monahan, they set out to create what Monahan describes as “a raucous wedding”, building the day around “a lot of fire energy” and an emphasis on excess. Set on a Balearic island already synonymous with indulgence—and with one of the couple’s Jupiter lines coursing straight through it—the wedding chart (an astrological “birth chart” for a marriage, not to be confused with the more traditional wedding seating chart) leaned into that atmosphere. “Very showy and over the top”, recalls Monahan, with the focus less on tradition or stability, but instead on spectacle and pleasure.
The Devil Wears Prada 2 Creators Have Weighed In on the Sydney Sweeney Cameo Rumours
The writer of The Devil Wears Prada 2 has confirmed that Sydney Sweeney will not appear in the highly-anticipated sequel.
“There were a lot of photos from the set of various people,” Aline Brosh McKenna has reported of the photographs of Sweeney on TDWP2 set that fuelled the rumours of her cameo. “You saw the movie. She’s not in the movie.”
The Devil Wears Prada 2 is set for release on Friday 1 May 2026.
Trust Me, I’m a Therapist—These Are the Mental Health Habits I Swear By (and the Ones I Skip)
Move over, AI, these tips come human-therapist approved.
If you’re worrying about your mental health in 2026, where do you turn for support? It might be your GP, a friend, or a therapist if you have one. But for many of us, the first port of call is the internet. Research suggests that searches related to anxiety and depression are made every three to five seconds, while a recent study by online therapy platform BetterHelp found that one in five people have self-diagnosed after watching mental health content on social media. Of those, just 29% spoke to a GP or doctor about their concerns, and only 19% sought therapy or further support.
The hobo bag is back – here’s how to style it in 2026
Trend cycles are nothing if not predictable, so it was inevitable that hobo bags, the bag of the 2000s boho set (think Sienna Miller, Kate Moss, the Olsen sisters, etc.), are back — and more stylish than ever, with modern silhouettes, but still featuring that iconic slouchiness that we all know and love.
Thanks to the fashion design house Chloé, which brought around last year’s boho revival, the slouchy, roomy bag is back on our radar, seen in spring runway shows for designers from Bottega Veneta to Dior to Hermès and Fendi. The cat is out of the (slouchy) bag — we can’t get enough of the unfussy accessory.
What Meghan Markle Was Really Like Behind the Scenes of MasterChef Australia, According to a Producer
The producer reported that “she was really good at judging.”
Meghan Markle made headlines with a surprise appearance as a guest judge on MasterChef Australia, showing off her pre-duchess television experience. “Passionate foodie Meghan Markle is joining MasterChef Australia as a guest judge,” the popular cooking show announced during Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s visit to Australia. In a video shared on TikTok, a MasterChef producer spilled on the gossip from the set, including what Meghan Markle was really like behind the scenes.
Alexandria Funnell, a former MasterChef Australia post-producer, reached out to a friend of hers who still produces the show asking for the gossip. “I was keen to hear the goss,” Funnell said. “She was so great!” one of the show’s current producers wrote in a text message to Funnell. “She was so nice to all the crew, had a good sense of humor, and was just a normal human.” Speaking about her team, the producer shared that Meghan Markle kept things low-key. “Her entourage was only 2 people and they were so great, too.”
How to apply perfume for long-lasting results
Prepare for compliments.
How to apply perfume may seem pretty straightforward—once you find a scent you love, you can spray it in a cloud above you and walk through it; you can mist the scent on your pulse points, or give your hair and clothes a spritz.
The trouble is, sometimes that zesty citrus or comforting vanilla scent can become a distant memory after just a few hours. Perfumers confirm that fragrance fade is a real thing, but if you want to start hearing more compliments on your perfume’s sillage (the scent trail that is left behind when you wear a perfume), then dousing your pulse points is definitely not the answer. Yes, the projection of your perfume will be strong – and will more than likely overwhelm everyone around you – but it doesn’t mean that the smell will last all day.
Leather Tote Bags Are A Practical Spring Essential. Try The Trend Now With Cos’s Chic Style
Consider this the high street buy of the season.
It’s no secret that the high street’s offering has significantly improved in recent years, thanks to a number of brands upping their fashion game to cater to today’s discerning customers. Take Marks & Spencer, which has had a phenomenal resurgence in its ready-to-wear offering ever since 2022 when Maddy Evans (who was fundamental to Topshop’s design team during its heyday) was promoted to director of womenswear. Just last year, a pair of M&S suede loafers became office catnip at ELLE HQ, while one of its dresses was unlikely fashion week fodder, even championed by those you thought would never stray from luxury labels.
Queen Elizabeth “Was Happy to Puncture the Balloons” Of Stuffed-Shirt Courtiers, Says Royal Biographer
Author Robert Hardman wrote that the late Queen would “metaphorically roll her eyes” at certain aspects of royal life.
Princess Diana’s battles with the “men in gray suits” have been thoroughly chronicled throughout the years, and even King Charles had his own struggles with courtiers. But when it comes to palace officials, Queen Elizabeth found herself in a much different situation. Despite being the most famous woman in the world, even the late Queen was told what to do, but as royal author Robert Hardman wrote in his new biography of Queen Elizabeth, she wasn’t “obsessed” with old-fashioned traditions like some of the palace’s longtime employees.
In Elizabeth II: In Private. In Public. Her Story, one former private secretary for the late Queen told Hardman that the royal “would ‘metaphorically roll her eyes’ at some of the pedantic elements within the Lord Chamberlain’s Office, the palace department in charge of ceremonial.”
The former palace employee added that the ever-practical late Queen was all for modernizing when it made sense.
How to Style Spring 2026’s Sheer Trend Without Feeling Overexposed
This season, the barely-there style is more refined and less revealing.
Following Chanel’s Spring 2026 Haute Couture show, I instantly fell in love with the whimsical array of trends—from fringed skirt suits to bird-shaped brooches. But it was the display of diaphanous sheer fabric that truly made my heart sing. Creative Director Matthieu Blazy unveiled translucent cardigans layered over matching bottoms, see-through skirts paired with embellished blazers, and gauzy tank tops tucked into ultra-thin pants.
Chanel wasn’t the only label that showcased sheer for spring. During the ready-to-wear season, which took place several months earlier, brands including Tory Burch, Maison Margiela, and Valentino championed similar designs.
10 Espresso Drinks That Go Beyond Your Usual Latte
From Affogatos to Carajillos, these are the espresso drinks we’re making right now.
Espresso is as versatile as it is beloved. The intensely concentrated, flavor-rich coffee with roots in early 20th-century Italy seems to be more popular than ever. Espresso forms the backbone of drinks that range from classic café staples to inventive, internet-famous creations. Some, like Australian favorite the Flat White and popular Spanish drink the Cortado, are rooted in deeply ingrained coffee traditions, while others, like the Espresso Tonic and Cloud Coffee, are more modern creations amping up the digisphere.
We’ve collected our current favorite espresso drinks to try right now — a variety of buzzy beverages that showcase hot and cold, simple and indulgent, and zero-proof and spirited. Whether you’re jonesing for a refreshing afternoon pick-me-up or a cozy evening treat, these drinks offer a wide-ranging look at espresso’s enduring appeal.
47 Italian-American Recipes Full of Saucy, Cheesy Comfort
From bubbling lasagna and hearty meatballs to crisp garlic bread and melty chicken Parm, these classic dishes deliver bold flavor and a feeling of home.
A famous restaurant chain once said, “When you’re here, you’re family.” And few things evoke family as much as the storied, beloved tradition of Italian-American cooking. Even my Irish-American family can count far more dishes among our favorite multigenerational food traditions with roots in Italy than Ireland. (No shade on Irish-American food, to which my heart also belongs.) In The Italian American Table: Food, Family, and Community in New York City, historian Simone Cinotto argues that the production and consumption of food were essential to the identity-making of Italian immigrants to the United States in the early 20th century, and “the equation of food and family — an Italian-inflected notion of the family that eats together” was central to that identity. “The vision of a family eating together was…the most valuable self-representation Italians were able to craft in the diaspora.”
30 Gorgeous Nail Ideas for Taurus Season, Including Molten Hues and Elevated Animal Prints
They’re perfectly luxurious.
If you noticed a shift in energy, it’s not your mind playing tricks on you—Taurus season kicks off April 19 and runs through May 20. That comes with a shift from Aries’s fiery aura to a calmer, more grounded vibe, and with this change in the celestial air, there’s no better time than now to switch up your manicure.
This earth sign adores luxury of all kinds and is known to be loving, soothing, and driven; a matching manicure to suit the vibe is only right. “As an earth sign, Tauruses are grounded,” says celebrity nail artist Sarah Chue, “and they don’t venture too far beyond the middle line in their groundedness. Therefore, colors of the earth, like green and brown, definitely resonate with this sign.”
Not Your Grandma’s Flowers—Here’s How to Style Spring’s Blooming Florals
A verdant abundance bloomed across spring runways, and many of us swooned over the floral dresses that walked—each house offering its own take on the pattern. There were roses at Chloé, daises at Celine, and cornflowers at Stella McCartney. Much like the eye-catching displays in the Flower District, you’ll find that no two stems—and no two prints—are the same.
Many of these bolder patterns can feel like a statement on, though. In which case, if you’re not ready to commit to the full bouquet, accepting a singular flower can feel like an easier way in—and luckily, the market is brimming with options.
Madonna Says Costume She Wore for Sabrina Carpenter Coachella Appearance Is Missing: “These Aren’t Just Clothes, They Are Part of My History”
“I’m hoping and praying that some kind soul will find these items,” the superstar wrote, encouraging anyone with information to reach out to her team.
Madonna‘s victory lap following a buzzy surprise Coachella appearance with Sabrina Carpenter has hit a snag just three days after the show, as the pop superstar shared Monday that the garments she wore during the set are nowhere to be found, and she’s asking anyone with knowledge to help her get them back.
“This full circle moment hit different until I discovered that the vintage pieces that I wore went missing,” the superstar wrote in an Instagram story published on Monday. “My costume that was pulled from my personal archives — jacket, corset, dress and all other garments.

“I would want to walk into a room and just be chill and hang out, but I couldn’t quite find my footing,” says the ‘Mother Mary’ actress, who covers PEOPLE’s 2026 World’s Most Beautiful issue
“I just didn’t feel like I could get comfortable anywhere,” says the New Jersey-raised star, who got her breakthrough role at age 18 in 2001’s The Princess Diaries. “I would want to walk into a room and just be chill and hang out, but I couldn’t quite find my footing.”
As a child, she “found talking really difficult,” Hathaway tells PEOPLE. Because of her stress and anxiety around communicating, she found solace in acting, where she could memorize all of her lines.
