Let’s be bright, whimsical and fabulous today, darlings! It’s TUESDAY and we feel like we all must aggressively counter that sad fact with enforced frivolity. Take a seat. Order something pink. Be disgraceful.

Chase Infiniti and Elisabeth Moss on the Thrilling Season Finale of The Testaments—and What’s Coming in Season 2
“One of the things that really stands out from The Handmaid’s Tale is the element of sisterhood among these young girls. Their friendship is something that’s very fresh,” Infiniti tells Vogue. “Also, the show is being told from the perspective of somebody who, when you first meet them, they haven’t lost anything”—she’s referring here to her own character, Agnes—“and with Handmaid’s, it’s following the perspective of a handmaid who’s lost everything. But I think the special thing, to me, is the sisterhood—the friendship that these girls have and how strong it is even though [it’s] not allowed.”

Taylor Swift’s Mysterious Toy Story 5 Song Will Be Out on Friday
All the fan theories were right on the money.
She gave us so many signs. For weeks, the early advertising for Disney’s upcoming fifth Toy Story movie has hinted at a Taylor Swift song on the soundtrack (or maybe some other involvement from the superstar), with “TS” billboards with 13 puffy white clouds popping up around the country.
On June 1 Swift’s website posted a countdown featuring a short animation of cowgirl Jessie, and by midday, we had our answer: Yup, she’s going for that best original song slot once again!

Meet the ‘Not Suitable For Work’ Cast: Your Guide to the Hulu Comedy
Mindy Kaling’s sitcom about 20-somethings in N.Y.C. features an ensemble of your new favorite rising stars.
Good news, TV lovers: Mindy Kaling is continuing her apparent mission to make television about all stages of girlhood. After already tackling high school in her Netflix show Never Have I Ever and college in HBO’s The Sex Lives of College Girls, Kaling is taking on that awkward time between college graduation and full, independent adulthood in her new Hulu show, Not Suitable for Work.
So, what is Not Suitable for Work about? The comedy, on which Kaling serves as executive producer, follows five 20-somethings living in N.Y.C.—roommates Abby and AJ, and their sometimes annoying, sometimes sweet, neighbors Kel, Davis, and Josh. They live across the hall from one another in matching, unrealistically spacious apartments, and though they’re all career-driven, something tells me their lives will soon become more entangled than they might expect. Think of it like a Gen Z coming-of-age take on Friends.

Backrooms ending explained: decoding A24’s latest hit horror
It’s a head-scratcher, but that’s kind of the point.
Let’s get this straight: director Kane Parsons wishes people would stop trying to get the Backrooms ending explained. Instead, the mind behind A24’s latest horror movie would like to maintain an air of mystery and let people arrive at their own conclusions. “I want a chance for people to go through [the movie] in an untainted way,” he explained in a recent interview with Esquire. “I’ve had people take a couple things from it, and I have not decided if it’s best to dictate verbally what that thing is. It’s a classic case of, ‘What do you think it meant?’”

I went to a ‘pitch your friend’ event. Here’s my honest review…
Are they the death of dating apps – or dignity?
One of the biggest themes I’m seeing in the 2026 dating scene is that people are absolutely exhausted with dating apps. Mention the dreaded H word and you’ll hear the room groan. We’re trying to go old-school with dating, but it’s not quite sticking. I tried wearing an “I’m Single” hat, I tried single events, and I even tried talking to people face-to-face. It’s like how ChatGPT is impacting our mental processing so we become dependent on it, and maybe all these free dating apps are doing the same.
But maybe we should stop trying to revert to old-school solutions and come up with a new one. My social media seemed to think so when it started slipping in “pitch your friend” events in between the tarot card readings that swear my ex is thinking about me and those AI fruit videos.

How to perfect the viral ‘food jutsu’ TikTok trend
It’s loosely based on Jujutsu Kaisen and other anime series.
You don’t have to be a hardcore manga or anime fan to be familiar with the viral ‘food jutsu’ TikTok trend exploding on everyone’s For You pages of late – perhaps you didn’t even make the connection.
Similarly to the Justin Bieber drink trend, which uses a remix of his hit song “Baby” and sees empty-handed punters miraculously manifest alcoholic beverages, the ‘food jutsu’ trend inspired by Jujutsu Kaisen (or JJK for short) and other anime like Naruto, uses a combination of sharp camera cuts to create a mesmerising optical illusion.

Yan Fang Paints Stories of “Eastern Futurism” Across Her Face
For Yan Fang, the intersection of beauty, emotion and artistic expression has long informed the way she understands the world around her.
Through deconstructing and reimagining references from flower petals to traditional Chinese aesthetics, Yan links the mirror of her inner world onto the canvas of the face– using makeup to tell stories, explore identity, and connect to the truest version of herself.
Despite Yan’s incredible skill, her path into makeup artistry was never something she intentionally planned; rather it unfolded through mere curiosity, revealing itself as a calling she could not ignore. Within graphic lines, negative space, and the transformative power of makeup lie a window into the soul–and the foundation of what she defines as “Eastern Futurism.”

Netflix’s The Four Seasons is a reminder that friendship has no age limit, and that your chosen family will be there for you through the biggest life changes. Starring Tina Fey (who also co-created the show), Kerri Kenney-Silver, Colman Domingo, and more, the comedy series returned for its second season on May 28, picking back up with a group of lifelong friends as they grieve the loss of one of their own. At the end of their year together, seen through four getaways throughout the titular seasons, the gang’s bond is stronger than ever as they head into a new, exciting future.

Cobalt Blue Nails Are Summer’s New Mood-Boosting Manicure Trend – 5 Fresh Ways To Try Them
A welcome change from ‘quiet luxury’ manicures.
Between soap nails and subtle Japanese manicures, there’s been a quiet transformation taking over the nail industry, with minimalism shaping the majority of new trends and ‘quiet luxury’ superseding bold nail art.
Whether it’s milky finishes, soft nail art or barely-there bases, there’s been a distinct lack of vibrancy in 2026. Until now, that is. The latest nail trend for summer – a vibrant and feel-good ‘cobalt blue’ – is being reimagined with subtle motifs, mismatched designs and French tips; and it’s perfectly timed for the impending heatwave.

The Story Behind Bianca Jagger’s Iconic Wedding Suit – And Dua Lipa’s Homage To It
You’d be hard pressed to find a more frequently referenced bridal look than the one worn by Bianca Perez-Mora Macias on 12 May 1971. Any bride-to-be who is seeking an alternative to the traditional wedding dress will find her thoughts naturally turn to Yves Saint Laurent’s tailored two-piece, famously worn by the Nicaraguan socialite to marry Mick Jagger, nine months after the pair met for the first time at a rock concert in France.
Only a handful of images exist of the couple emerging from Saint-Tropez’s mairie (town hall), before they managed to duck photographers, yet it was enough to leave an everlasting impression. Photos of Dua Lipa and Callum Turner leaving Old Marylebone Town Hall in London after their own civil ceremony at the weekend, as family and friends showered them with confetti, echo that ’70s scene that became an eternal reference for brides.

Zendaya Says Filming the ‘Euphoria’ Season 3 Finale Was ‘Very Emotional’
For the actor, ‘It’s been a pleasure and an honour’.
Spoilers below.
Zendaya was in her feelings after the Euphoria season 3 finale too. A new behind-the-scenes featurette from HBO reveals footage from the actor’s final day on set this season. She’s shown taking the mic and addressing the crew in a heartfelt speech.
‘I just want to say thank you,’ she said. ‘I’m incredibly grateful for every single one of you, and many of you have been here from the beginning and watched me grow up. It’s been a pleasure and an honor. Thank you so much.’

The Capri Bob Is the Low-Maintenance Haircut That’s as Chic as a Summer in Italy
This Mediterranean-inspired cut is the perfect way to give yourself a new look this summer.
Introducing the Capri bob, a haircut with a Mediterranean flair that’ll mentally transport you to the Italian island.
The world is divided into two groups when it comes to summer haircuts. There are those of us who prefer long hair so we can tie it back in the heat; others consider the warm temps to be the best time to go short and enjoy the fresh air on their neck. And if you’re on Team Short Hair, you may be interested to know that a new haircut is becoming a cool-girl favorite: the Capri bob, a Mediterranean style that will instantly transport you to your dream vacation destination. This latest take on the bob is set to become a trend this season thanks to its low-maintenance requirements and casual vibe.

Why Ugly Food Tastes So Good
Anthony Bourdain explained why so many of his favorite dishes are “limp, brown, stewy, soupy, unlovely-but-delicious food.”
Italians have an apt descriptor for a simple, crunchy-chewy hazelnut meringue cookie that tastes delicious but looks like something you’d scrape off your shoe after a visit to the dog park: brutti ma buoni, which means “ugly but good.” It’s a great name, though it’s honestly wasted on a cookie, when in fact there’s a whole world of food out there — and I’ve seen and tasted a lot of it — that rightfully could be called “ugly but good.”

Marilyn Monroe on the Catwalk: How Designers Have Referenced the Blonde Bombshell
It took a fever dream of ambition and a studio executive’s cunning to transform the orphan Norma Jeane Mortenson into Marilyn Monroe. As Marilyn, she would become the ultimate bombshell, one who dazzled onscreen and whose image would be seared into the public imagination, seemingly forever. With her platinum blonde curls and heavy-lidded eyes, she worked her way into art and, posthumously, onto many a runway. Now, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the actor’s birth, we look at how designers have borrowed some of her stardust.

Hannah Waddingham has an ‘ongoing love-hate relationship’ with Jason Sudeikis due to Ted Lasso rewrites
“There’s always going to be a bit of give and take within a scene, because of the nature of how Sudeikis works,” Waddingham said Saturday.
When it comes to Jason Sudeikis and Hannah Waddingham’s relationship, it’s not all biscuits and tea.
On screen, the Ted Lasso stars are one of the best duos on television, but Waddingham admits that it can be a struggle behind the scenes due to the constant rewrites from Sudeikis, who serves as Lasso’s writer, producer, co-creator, and lead actor.
“There’s always going to be a bit of give and take within a scene, because of the nature of how Sudeikis works,” Waddingham told Variety on Saturday. “He hears it in the room, and then we tweak. With that boy, you’ve got to roll with the punches. He and I have an ongoing love-hate relationship that he changes it last minute.”

A Pretty Little Liars alum is set to play a Kennedy in a new psychological thriller
Rosemary Kennedy is the latest member of the political dynasty to get their own biopic.
Rosemary Kennedy is the latest member of the political dynasty to get the biopic treatment.
Pretty Little Liars alum Sasha Pieterse’s next role is playing the sister of President John F. Kennedy in the upcoming psychological thriller film Rosemary, Deadline reports. Rosemary was the third of Joe Kennedy Sr. and Rose Kennedy’s nine children.
The film will “dramatize Rosemary Kennedy’s struggle with mental health, the devastating decision by her father, Joseph P. Kennedy Sr., to subject her to a lobotomy at age 23, and the long–lasting consequences of that choice,” per Deadline. It will be based on the All That’s Interesting article titled “Rosemary Kennedy, JFK’s Sister Who Was Lobotomized And Locked Away.”

Steven Spielberg explains how Tom Selleck nearly played Indiana Jones over Harrison Ford: ‘We wanted Tom’
The filmmaker said he “wouldn’t have let” Selleck star in the film with his mustache, and explains why the casting didn’t work out.
Steven Spielberg has revealed that Indiana Jones nearly adventured into very different casting territory as he and George Lucas prepped to shoot what would become one of the most iconic movie franchises in Hollywood history.
In a new interview on Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson’s IMO podcast (below), the director recounts that the central character — who helped launch Harrison Ford to icon status with the release of 1981’s Raiders of the Lost Ark — was initially meant to be played by Tom Selleck.

This 42-mile Scenic Drive Was Just Named the Most Beautiful Road in the U.S.
Mirror Lake Scenic Byway topped a new ranking thanks to its alpine lakes and mountain views.
When considering America’s most stunning road trips, there are many popular choices. But with incredible mountain views, waterfalls, and lakes, it’s no surprise Utah’s Mirror Lake Scenic Byway came out on top.
The 42-mile stretch was named the most beautiful road in the United States by racing organization FLBR Motorsport. In fact, the route had the highest mentions of the key word “beautiful” compared to all other routes the study looked at.

The Household Surface You Should Disinfect Most Often, According to Doctors
Where germs gather most.
If you were casually asked what the most bacteria-laden surface is in your home, you’d probably say the toilet, right? But according to experts, your toilet doesn’t even crack the top five, at least as far as bacteria are concerned. (But please, don’t stop cleaning your toilets.) While many people focus their disinfecting efforts on surfaces that look dirty, experts say high-risk areas are actually determined by a mix of moisture, food exposure, and how often something is touched throughout the day.
Here, doctors break down the one surface you should prioritize disinfecting first, plus the overlooked household hotspots that deserve more attention in your routine.
