Those walking the streets of Lower Manhattan on Saturday may have noticed a small commotion taking place at City Hall, as hundreds of people swarmed around police officers escorting a mysterious figure down the steps. On closer inspection, this apparent criminal mastermind appeared somewhat familiar. 

No, it wasn’t Donald Trump—even though, ironically, there has been a media circus all week in the exact same spot, as the public awaits the possible indictment of Trump in the ongoing “hush money” case. Turns out it involved another saga of (alleged) treachery and deceit. The heckling crowds were all hired extras for Joker: Folie à Deux, and the figure at the center was Lady Gaga, offering the first full-length look at her take on the character of Harley Quinn.

Starring opposite Joaquin Phoenix in the sequel to Todd Phillips’s Oscar-nominated box office smash Joker, which told the origin story of one of Batman’s greatest foes, Gaga appeared to be fully in the zone as Phoenix’s henchwoman and love interest. (As anyone who’s followed Gaga’s acting career knows, when it comes to diving into a new role, she’s nothing if not committed.) NBC News reported that the film crew had enlisted around 700 extras to play protestors and that explosions were also planned; in pictures of the filming, the crowd booed and shouted as Gaga appeared to be escorted into a courthouse, turning around to furiously raise a fist at them.

Bad bridesmaid dresses are something of a cultural cliché, with fluffy embellishment and saccharin-sweet color palettes cementing the stereotype. But for brides eager to step away from this commonplace approach and pivot toward more modern styles, there’s a world of choice. Having your bridesmaids wear dresses that complement both their personalities and your own wedding gown is a win-win situation, with everyone feeling their most confident and the portraits will turn out far chicer. 

Whether your bridal party is on the smaller or larger side, finding bridesmaid dresses that punctuate this momentous occasion shouldn’t be a chore. Begin with a color scheme and decide whether you want to uniformly dress your bridesmaids in coordinating designs or have each person wear an individual style. The latter can be an especially nice choice for ensuring they’ll wear the dress again for years to come. 

Ahead, discover some of our favorite designs from brands like Markarian, Jonathan Simkhai, and Ulla Johnson ahead to kickstart your search, with nary a fluffy tulle gown in sight.

Long before she inspired women everywhere to embrace c-c-c-curly hair as her alter ego Carrie Bradshaw, Sarah Jessica Parker’s frothy, scrunchie-cinched eighties mane launched a million perms, marking the first of many trendsetting looks during her on-screen career, which has spanned four decades. With characteristic flair, she transitioned from air-dried flaxen waves and glossy auburn ringlets in the nineties to a prescient Sex and the City bob and a series of poker-straight styles in the aughts—popularizing blowouts as much as she did Manolo Blahniks along the way. These days, SJP has made a long, honey-dipped ombré with natural silver roots her signature, stoking refreshing conversations about aging and cementing her status as what just might be fashion’s best head of hair. In honor of her 58th birthday and the Sex and the City sequel series And Just Like That returning for a second season, here’s a look back at her most style-defining beauty moments.

Swarm is a show about obsession on the internet that is itself now an internet obsession. It’s little wonder that the feeling is mutual: Created by Janine Nabers and Donald Glover, the buzzy show explores toxic fandom inside a doxxing hive community—referencing a familiar-feeling power couple’s world tour, elevator fights, and a mystery bite at a party—with roles for Paris Jackson and Billie Eilish, plus Malia Obama in the writers’ room. It follows Dre, a withdrawn, unpopular stan of a pop superstar called Ni’Jah. Ni’Jah is what she bonds over with her other great love, her sister Marissa (played by Chloë Bailey). But when Dre loses Marissa, broken by guilt and grief, she sets out to protect her favorite singer at any, increasingly bloody, cost.

“My team told me that Donald Glover had a show with me in mind,” explains its breakout star Dominique Fishback. “They don’t have the script. They don’t have a synopsis. He just said, watch this movie called The Piano Teacher.” Fishback was sucked in by Isabelle Huppert’s unsettling performance in the erotic 2001 film. “I was like, I don’t know if I’m that brave of an actor… But it really made me consider, what kind of actor do I want to be?” Just as she geared herself up to take a leap, the New Yorker was offered the role of Marissa, instead of Dre. “I’m used to playing characters that are ‘easier to love’; I want to stretch myself,” she told them. “I want to play Dre.” Her wish was their command. “[Glover] said, if that’s the role you want, that’s what you get.”

Still, imagining the public reaction to her performance as a violent killer gave her pause: “We all want to be loved,” she explains. In the end, the response was overwhelmingly positive because of, not in spite of, Dre’s proclivities. “There’s so much excitement from Black women and Black people—and people of all different races—because we’re just excited to see something different to shake us up.”

Speaking to Vogue the day after her 32nd birthday, Dominique says: “It’s wild, because I think of that quote, ‘as above, so below, as within, so without.’ It has been resonating with me for the last two and a half years. I was trying to figure out how to manifest love or appreciation and being seen. You really can’t do that, or get it at that greater scale, until you have it for yourself. I’m learning how to really love myself from the inside out, so to watch it manifest on my birthday with such a outpouring of love for Swarm was amazing.”

Jennifer Lopez may owe Jane Fonda a monster of an apology.

During a recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show alongside her Moving On and Grace and Frankie costar Lily Tomlin, Fonda was asked to share behind-the-scenes details from her most famous films. However, when the 2005 romantic comedy Monster-in-Law came up, so did an 18-year-old grudge. 

As the title of the movie implies, Jennifer Lopez plays a woman with a future mother-in-law from hell. Fonda’s character Viola was willing to do whatever it takes to break up her son and Lopez’s character Charlie—including showing up to their wedding in a white gown. In the pivotal scene, Charlie tries to backtrack after striking the older woman, but Viola slaps her right back, delivering the iconic line: “You don’t go and slap somebody and then apologize, get some backbone.” 

Now, Fonda says those slaps were even harsher than they looked. “The thing that comes to mind right away is we have a slapping scene. I slap her, she slaps me,” Fonda told Barrymore. “Well, Jennifer—as per Jennifer—she had this enormous diamond ring. And so, when she slapped me one of the times, it cut open across my eye, my eyebrow.”

After a bit of a pause, Fonda added, “She’s never apologized.”

Based on her delivery, it’s unclear if the 85-year-old actor was being sincere or just looking for a laugh, but this story does contradict Lopez’s own recollection of events. In a YouTube video posted to her channel in 2019, Lopez said she was “mortified” by the incident and definitely apologized.

“She really really went for it and so did I—and then I punched her in the eye by mistake,” Lopez said while watching the clip. “Ouch!”

Your weekly horoscope is here. If you sense the winds of change but can’t logically put a finger on what or why, trust your journey. Don’t wait until you see everyone else doing it or printed proof. You’ll be ahead and more likely in the right place at the right time when you set your sail to catch them. What shifts do you know you’re ready to step into? 

Read on to discover your weekly horoscope and what’s in store for your sign during the week of March 26 through April 1, 2023.

Aries 

There’s a significant emphasis on you right now. And if the spotlight isn’t directly on you, it’s certainly lighting up your personal interests, so you have a lot of insight into what’s happening around you. You may like to share with those less clued in. There’s a caveat; start this week by breathing before you fire off, especially if you feel slightly inflamed. Your words may cut or inadvertently wound less robust types. Peaking on Tuesday, you really do have a lot to say. So much. Why not aim it where it’s useful by jotting your ideas down? Writing an article or book in record time or putting your voice/ideas on a platform they could launch into viral legend. Also, a brilliant time for brainstorming big ideas; watch the grandiosity without the practicality.

Taurus

This week holds an unlikely but positive surprise if you’re willing to keep an open mind. An edge to your look works for you while everyone else scrambles to keep up. The way you see yourself in changing, let it shift and open up to possibility. Try new things if you’re ready to experiment. Especially aesthetically. Thursday is peak electricity in love and dating, or perhaps it’s you catching someone’s eye. Keep that dream diary close to your bed early in the week. You want to get every insight you remember from your dreams and note epiphanies. There’s bound to be at least one of great value. It may seem unusual, ahead of its time, or against the grain somewhat, so trust it if it feels right and explore further. 

Gemini

After a disproportionate time in your sign, Mars, the planet of action and the odd paper cut, has finally packed its bags and moved on. You may be relieved to say goodbye to this house guest, however, look back over the last six months and consider what redirection you’ve taken. Exiting the fog, your footing is more sure, and the path more apparent. Over the next two weeks, pick up the pace and take decisive steps toward a goal that has crystallized. Make moves in your finance sector, whether that’s looking after investments or being proactive when it comes to drawing an income. Act in alignment with your values, and you’ll have more energy if the care factor exists. 

Cancer 

Mighty Mars, the planet representing action and energy, has moved into your sign. You’re all powered up; create a roadmap, so you have somewhere to go! Really, with excess energy and drive, aim at a worthy goal you can get traction on by May 19. Thursday is particularly practical, so take a leap or a big step, especially if you’ve done your homework. An older person, someone with expertise or the ability to present your own, broadens your horizons. Think, but most importantly, act big. Meanwhile, your social sphere benefits from getting out and enjoying slow comforts like beautifully presented meals or a practical class with friends. Pottery, plants, or something out of your comfort zone you’d love. This is your week to embrace simple pleasures. 

Leo 

The planet of love and beauty is hanging out in your career zone and public image, so use your charm and be upfront about it. Who do you like, want to work with, or build a mutually agreeable relationship with? Beeline for besties or valuable partnerships that energize and excite you. This zone is about leadership and independence; however, it’s always better when mutual interests are met. Since Venus is gracing this part of your life, why not give your bio a makeover, rebrand, tweak the colors or update the font? A new red power suit? Yes ma’am!! Or as the famous Leo, Madonna once instructed someone, ‘Yes Sir, Mrs. Sir, Yes SIR!!’. Charm can take the offensive, so express yourself and don’t wait to be asked. 

Virgo 

As the planet of desire and pleasure moves into a particularly beneficial alignment with your sign, it’s time to broaden your horizons. Perhaps through a foreign affair or friendship. Financial or culinary course, anyone? Surface design crash course? Your new bestie might be waiting to meet you in class. Cash could come your way by thinking internationally rather than locally. Like it or not, Ai is making its presence known. The right application could assist your big idea. Or perhaps it’s still time to work out what really underscores your values as you move forward. Find your philosophical take on tech and enjoy the conversations en route to a decision and application. 

Libra 

It’s time to take action on your career. Leadership and independent moves work for you now; however, you’ll need to consider the feelings and concerns of others to make it work for you. And that might defy your well-attuned sense of balanced, carefully deliberated, and arrived-at logic, and that’s the rub. Muster support and alliance through understanding what people really want deep down. What truly motivates them, from the brain stem. And I do mean basics like emotional safety, food, and shelter! You may find you have to act on the concerns of others or as a protective force like a mother bear. And that’s ok; just be sure your needs are well balanced and taken care of too. Don’t act against your better interests or even self-interest. A happy medium would do nicely. 

Scorpio 

Adventure calls as you have two months of bonus charge in your batteries. This is a brilliant time for exploration, expansion, or using excess energy to drive toward a big goal. Think big, and act bold. Take that step. That might be foreign travel, solo or with the fam in tow. Or a brave foray onto campus if you’re studying. Buddy up with brilliant baes and create a family feel. A shield of allies that return your care will serve you well. Venus, the planet of amour is in your zone of ooh la la, aka sphere of one-to-one partnership, so expect anything. Find your line between anything goes and not so fast, Mr/s smooth operator! Bond over classic homesteading skills with a modern twist. Align your hearts over dates involving slow food, sensual pleasure, perhaps practical hands-on crafting like clay or macrame, or a fermenting workshop. 

Sagittarius

Venus may represent love and desire, but sexy time is brought to you by the planet of action, red-hot Mars. Under the covers in your sphere of sex and intimacy, that spells an exciting start to Spring. This is also a zone of shared and mutual interest, so combining forces is a good idea for you, especially in your work. Teaming up with a talented creator or sharing your original style can win hearts and perhaps an unexpected budget, windfall, or project. Try something new, even if it seems a bit off the wall or unlikely. You’ve got to be in it to win it. But first, back to that lounging in lux and loving it. Take it slowly, sensually, and look for the practical side if you’re teaming up for mutual gain or straight-up pleasure.

Capricorn

Mars, the mighty planet of action, drive, and determination, is heading up your partnership zone for the next two months. Approach conflict with an attitude of care. Tears, cuddles, and comfort food win the day. Align with modern family values, and avoid direct confrontation. This is a great time to read up on compassionate ways of dealing with conflict and confrontation. See it as an opportunity to sharpen your skill set with relationship wellness tools from experts like The Gottman Institute or Esther Perel. Let out extra steam with activities, shared interests, or home-based projects. Emotionally, things can get a little dynamic, so watch that push and pull. Manage expectations and communicate rather than take on all the responsibility or build quiet resentment. Also a dynamic and assertive time for reaching out, making connections, and letting that cutie know how you feel! 

Aquarius

Get traction on a project at work, and take an active approach to your wellness routine. Your motivation is sparked by working toward a joint project or goal for the benefit of others, so don’t feel you have to go it alone. The same goes for fitness or health outcomes. When you have to do it for your workout buddy, you’ll find the grit to get up and keep up. More the intellectual type, this is an excellent opportunity to get out of your head and into your body. Will and determination are building over the next few months, so get ahead of the curve. Consider a long runway to an intense or important goal vs. the shorter-term issues you may feel pull you away from that opus. Scheduling ensures you don’t fritter away the crucial things on squeaky wheels or easy distractions. 

Pisces

Sometimes it takes rest to recharge, and other times it takes energy to build energy. Over the next two months, your fire is lit by pursuing your creative vision. Let your love of doing art, finessing a personal project, or learning to cable knit for your friend’s new baby’s jacket take you on flights of imaginative fancy. Use it as an escape hatch to create more, and you’ll have more energy to pursue those dreams. Hanging out with children or family will have a similar effect if you have a good relationship with them. Dating? Now is the time to get out and mingle. Take the initiative to connect emotionally and keep it reasonably light-hearted and fun. These activities flow through to build a positive self-regard, identity, and outlook. They may even have the knock-on effect of clarifying your direction.

When A-Listers end up on camera in Park City, Utah it’s usually for the Sundance Film Festival, but this week had different plans for Gwyneth Paltrow. The Academy Award-winning actor and Goop CEO is being sued, to the tune of $300,000, for an alleged hit-and-run skiing incident in 2016 by retired optometrist Terry Sanderson. 

Paltrow, however, claims that it was she who was hit by Anderson, and accused him of “attempt[ing] to exploit her celebrity and wealth.” As such, she is countersuing him for the symbolic amount of one dollar plus the cost of her legal fees. 

The incident happened at the Deer Valley Ski Resort, on the beginner’s slopes. Anderson claims that Paltrow was skiing “out of control” and that the collision “caus[ed] a brain injury, four broken ribs and other serious injuries.” In 2019 he sued for $3.1 million, but a judge ruled that the amount must be capped at $300,000.

In an opening statement, Sanderson’s lawyer Lawrence Buhler claimed that Paltrow was looking at her children, not where she was skiing, and hit his client. He also claimed that she left the area three to four minutes later. Sanderson was taken to a first aid tent by sled. But Paltrow contends that Sanderson hit her; her attorney Stephen Owens said that Sanderson apologized to her following the incident and that she stayed on the scene until the ski patrol came by. 

Paltrow took to the witness stand on March 24, the fourth day of the trial. If nothing else, onlookers were reminded that the woman is schooled at delivery. Case in point: this meme-worthy moment in which she apologized for swearing after (allegedly) being hit on a ski slope. 

She described the sensation as “there was a body pressing against me and a very strange grunting noise.” She said that she and her children were taking a ski lesson when “he struck me in the back.”

Sanderson’s team has claimed that Paltrow left the scene before any help arrived, but she says that she remained “long enough for him to say that he was OK.” She said it was “absolutely not” a hit-and-run scenario. 

She added that she experienced no injuries, but the collision made her feel like her knee was “over-stretched,” and her back hurt. She sought out a massage later that day. 

She further stated that “Mr. Sanderson categorically hit me on that ski slope, and that is the truth,” but added “I feel very sorry for him. It seems like he’s had a very difficult life, but I did not cause the accident so I cannot be at fault for anything that subsequently happened to him.”

Earlier, Kristin A. VanOrman, one of Sanderson’s attorneys, said (almost in an aside) that Paltrow had lied under oath. This led to Paltrow dropping her jaw in a very dramatic fashion and Owens demanding a retraction. Judge Kent R. Holmberg asked VanOrman if she wanted to rephrase her statement, which she did.

Either the rumor mill is working overtime or Selena Gomez is dating former One Direction member Zayn Malik—and, honestly, either scenario is completely believable. 

Zelena rumors first went viral in March when an alleged restaurant hostess at a celeb-favored New York City restaurant took to TikTok after getting texts from another hostess that Gomez and Malik were getting hot and heavy while out to dinner. The sourcing was obviously sus and even Deuxmoi, Instagram’s favorite gossip page, had doubts

However, a source speaking to Entertainment Tonight recently backed up the TikTok creator’s claims—and you know what that means: Time for a complete timeline of Selena Gomez and Zayn Malik’s rumored relationship.

December 2010—March 2018: Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber repeatedly date and break up for about eight years. We’re not going to get into everything that happened, but there’s one moment that specifically pertains to Malik…

August 14, 2016: During an off period in 2016, Gomez and Bieber reportedly get into an argument on Instagram over photos he shared with rumored girlfriend Sofia Richie. During their alleged spat in the comments, Gomez seemingly implies that Bieber “cheated multiple times” during their relationship. According to screenshots shared by Harper’s Bazaar, he responds, “I cheated.. oh I forgot about You and Zayn?”
