Are we feeling moody and autumnal? Oh, yes. There’s always that time in late summer where your body starts preparing for the shorter days and, depending on where you live, colder temperatures. In our new, much hotter (literally) reality, we’ll still be wearing shorts right up to Halloween and probably beyond, but even so. The cozy gene has kicked in. It could also be related to the fact that we’re getting a massive shipment of Halloween decorations today, as discussed extensively in our last podcast. Anyway! It’s WEDNESDAY and we have pictures of famous people getting off of boats to show you! Get into this cozy vibe!
Jeremy Allen White on His Latest Calvin Klein Campaign: ‘If You Feel Comfortable, It’s Going to Look Cooler’
The Bear star exclusively tells GQ about preparing to play Bruce Springsteen, visiting his own billboard on Houston Street, and what he looks for in a good suit.
GQ: Your first Calvin campaign was a huge hit. Did it feel like a huge hit to you?
Jeremy Allen White: Yeah, I mean, yeah…I think it did what it was supposed to do. I felt so insecure leading up to the shoot itself, and it felt kind of crazy. Acting on film or TV and then doing these sort of campaigns or photo shoots, there’s such a big difference—because in film and TV, your job is to sort of forget the camera is there, and then with these sort of shoots, your partner is sort of the photographer and the camera. And so I was concerned about making that work.
Sigourney Weaver, On Eve Of Her Venice Lifetime Achievement Award, Lifts Lid On Remarkable Career From ‘Alien’ To ‘Avatar’, ‘Working Girl’ To ‘Ghostbusters’ And ‘Star Wars’ Role To Come
DEADLINE: There are so many films we could talk about today. …To go back to the beginning, it’s always remarkable to be reminded that Alien was virtually your first film role. You had done quite a bit of theater and a little TV, but this was virtually your first movie. Did you have any inkling at the time just how big of an impact the film, and Ellen Ripley, would have?
WEAVER: I had come from off of Broadway. So to me, this was an “off of Broadway” project. It was dark, unique, very original, very physically arresting. As soon as I saw the designs, when I met Ridley Scott and he showed me these [H.R.] Giger and Carlo Rambaldi designs, I realized I’d never seen anything like it before, so that really intrigued me. But I don’t think any of us could have anticipated that it would continue to entertain people in the way it has. It was made for around $11 million-$14 million and had an ensemble cast…
What I remember most is Ridley and [director of photography] Derek Vanlint being very innovative in how they linked us all up in these tiny spaces. But I felt like a member of the crew the entire time — I’m glad I didn’t see it as a huge breakthrough opportunity. I always just looked for great stories and wanted to be a part of them, and that’s been my compass, rather than thinking about all the other aspects of the business.

Hypothyroidism symptoms are easy to miss — here are some clues to pay attention to
Constipation, fatigue, and hair loss can all be signs.
You’re exhausted, constipated, and depressed, your periods are a nightmare, and your hair feels brittle and dry — these must be hypothyroidism symptoms, right? Not so fast.
“If I had a dollar for every time I get asked that question, I’d be sitting in Hawaii right now,” Afreen Shariff, an associate professor and endocrinologist at Duke University School of Medicine and the director of Duke’s Endo Oncology Program, says. “I always say half my job is to tell you what it is, and half my job is to tell you what it’s not.”
Sarah Ferguson Celebrates International Dog Day With Queen Elizabeth’s Most Precious Corgis
Sandy and Muick, the last of the late Queen’s pups, got an extra treat at Balmoral for being very good royal doggies.
International Dog Day might not be an officially sanctioned holiday, but for Sarah Ferguson, the duch*ess of York and ex-wife of Prince Andrew, it’s worth a real celebration. Ever since the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022, Sarah and Andrew have been the co-owners of Muick and Sandy, the last dogs remaining from the pack of corgis the queen had cultivated throughout most of her life. On Monday, Ferguson celebrated the UK’s most famous dogs with a post on her Instagram.

8 Winona Ryder Performances That Stand The Test Of Time
Winona Ryder has always been an electric screen presence. The twice-Oscar-nominated actor made her name in the ’80s and ’90s playing effortlessly cool, supremely stylish outsiders, but she was never one to be pigeonholed – just look at her subtle, mesmerising turn as a demure bride-to-be in The Age of Innocence. Now, three decades on, she’s cooler than ever as the tenacious and resourceful Joyce Byers in Stranger Things (the final season of which will soon be coming to Netflix), as well as the now-all-grown-up Lydia Deetz in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.

From top to bottom of the Boot, our favorite 10 towns in Italy will help you dodge the crowds and experience authentic Italian culture.
You’ve already tossed a coin into the Trevi Fountain in Rome, floated along the canals in Venice, or maybe even attended a wedding near Lake Como—amazing experiences, to be sure, but that’s still only scratching the surface for a country as large and culturally rich as Italy. The list of the best cities to visit in Italy is long, and there are many destinations worth visiting in this charming country. If you’ve already hit the hot spots or you just want to get off the beaten path, there’s no shortage of under-the-radar cities in Italy offering art, history, jaw-dropping views, and (of course) excellent food.
How to Use Olive Oil to Maximize Hair Growth
Chefs have embraced olive oil for years, and these days, hairstylists are doing so too. Extracted from the olive fruit, olive oil contains good-for-your-hair monounsaturated fatty acid, a type of lipid that keeps strands soft and hydrated. “The lipids in plant-based olive oil are small in nature, allowing for easier penetration into the hair shaft,” says Kristina Collins, M.D., a board-certified dermatologist and owner of Austin Skin.
In Honor of Only Murders in the Building’s Return, Vogue’s Guide to the Upper West Side
The show, which centers on the murders, murderesses, and murderers, unfolding in a historic UWS apartment complex, is heavily rooted in its location. If there are three stars of the show, let’s consider the Upper West Side the fourth. […] To ensure that the neighborhood gets its due, Vogue has compiled a guide to the Upper West Side—a slice of Manhattan sandwiched between Central Park West and Riverside Drive that wonderfully holds up to its cliché as a neighborhood for bookish thinkers who prefer their avenues lined with bagel shops over fashion flagships.
A Guide to Cooking With Any Type of Coconut, From Coconut Oil to Coconut Cream
What’s the real difference between coconut milk and coconut cream? Here’s a breakdown of all things coconut.
Coconut as an ingredient is ubiquitous and treasured across the tropics. Indigenous to Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines, its enduring appeal comes as much from its deliciousness as its hardiness and portability. A fresh coconut, depending on the size and variety, can keep for several months at room temperature, its tough shell making it easy to transport and store. And the trees themselves are a source of life. They can live for more than a century and grow to more than 100 feet tall.
Pinot Grigio Can Be an Exciting White Wine if You Know What to Look for
Pinot Grigio, which also goes by the name Pinot Gris, is capable of producing far more complex wines than it often gets credit for.
Pinot Gris, which is also known as Pinot Grigio, is one of the world’s most well-known white grape varieties. Ironically, the best expressions of it — the age-worthy Grand Cru bottlings from Alsace and the increasingly compelling ones from Oregon’s Willamette Valley — aren’t the most famous.
That title belongs to the often bulk-produced Pinot Grigios of northern Italy. These are among the most popular white wines in the world, and what they tend to lack in complexity and depth, they generally make up for in uncomplicated gulpability.
TikTok Is Loving This Viral Lemon Hack for Cleaning Dishwashers — Does It Actually Work?
Here’s the real deal.
There are a lot of dubious claims out there on social media, but sometimes, you get lucky and come across a tip that offers bonafide results. And that’s exactly what’s happening with the lemon dishwasher hack that everyone is currently fanning over on TikTok.
Over the last few weeks, videos by influencers like lynsey_queenofclean have been going absolutely viral on the platform. In just 10 seconds, Lynsey changes her followers’ lives (or, at least their cleaning routines) by suggesting they toss a lemon in their dishwasher as a way to clean their dishes and the machine itself, along with keeping “limescale at bay.”
Goldfish Just Brought Back Its Most Popular Limited-Time Flavor Ever
And it certainly won’t last on retail shelves all that long.
Goldfish is giving us all something to look forward to next month.
In late August, the brand announced the grand return of its Goldfish Hello Kitty Strawberry Shortcake Flavored Grahams, which it says were the fastest-selling limited-time offering in its brand history the last time it offered the flavor.
“Despite her 50-year legacy, Hello Kitty is still finding new ways to surprise us all, as shown through the recent revelation that Hello Kitty is not a cat but a little girl — sending the internet into a frenzy and increasing searches by 70%,” Goldfish explained in a statement about why it wanted to bring back the flavor. “Goldfish’s limited-time release comes just in time to tap into the hot online conversation.”
If You Haven’t Watched These Early 2000s Rom-Coms, Cancel All Your Plans
The Sweetest Thing is my Casablanca.
Hollywood had a major thing for romantic comedies in the early-aughts. From 2000 through 2010, we were all gifted with some of the best rom-coms to grace the big screen: think classics like How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days, 13 Going On 30, The Proposal, Love Actually, and Bridget Jones’ Diary, just to name a few. Will these ever stop being perfect for a re-watch? Absolutely not—but it’s worth pointing out that there were a whole bunch of underrated rom-coms from the early 2000s you’ve probably completely forgotten about by now.
When Your Child Is an Animal
The charged cultural conversation about pets and children — see “Chimp Crazy,” “childless cat ladies” and more — reveals the hidden contradictions of family life.
When JD Vance became the Republican vice-presidential nominee, his 2021 comment about “childless cat ladies” resurfaced, positioning them as adversaries of the traditional family. New York magazine published a special issue questioning the ethics of pet ownership, featuring a polarizing essay from an anonymous mother who neglected her cat once her human baby arrived. In the background of these stories, you can hear the echoes of an internet-wide argument that pits companion animals against human children, pet and tot forced into a psychic battle for adult recognition.
Is It Better to Be Over- or Underdressed?
A reader seeks guidance on striking the right balance between casual and formal attire at events without a defined dress code.
This is like “Hamlet,” the S.N.L. version. You can just imagine a host wandering around a set crying, “to overdress or underdress, that is the question?” as they beat their breast and rend their doublet. In truth, there are two camps here.
On one side, there are those who hew to what could be called the school of Coco Chanel. The famous French designer believed it was always better to be underdressed and was fond of issuing such maxims as “Elegance is refusal” and “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.”
On the other side are the heirs of Iris (Apfel), the geriatric influencer who died earlier this year. She lived her life according to the conviction that more is more: more prints, more bracelets, more fun.
7 Weird Things People Believed About the World in Medieval Europe
Giant snails, devils, and werewolves, oh my!
If you were an average person living in Europe in the 15th century, you probably weren’t very well traveled—meaning much of the world (even places within Europe) may have felt very mysterious to you.
What kinds of animals roamed the land, what did the land even look like, and what were the people like? To get the answers to these questions, you might rely on a mixture of stories from people who’d visited (or claimed to have visited) those lands.
Demi Moore’s Gory Glory
Grotesque.” “Divisive.” “Exhilarating.” “Bonkers.” “Freakish.” “Batsh*t.” “Crazy.” When The Substance premiered at Cannes last spring, it sent shockwaves down the Croisette and immediately made Demi Moore the center of attention—again. Throughout her career, the 61-year-old superstar has been a natural-born headline getter, and her starring role in director Coralie Fargeat’s body-horror fantasy signals that she’s not done yet. In it, she plays Elisabeth Sparkle, a fading Hollywood beauty who turns back time with a black-market drug that carries some extremely gnarly side effects. Youth, vanity, desire, relevance—they’re ideas that Demi Moore knows all too well and, as she tells her fellow actor Michelle Yeoh, was dying to tackle.
Elizabeth Taylor at Home: 15 Photos of the Golden Age Star’s Domestic Life
Take a look at the British American icon’s moments away from the spotlight
“I don’t like fame. I don’t like the sense of belonging to the public,” Elizabeth Taylor admits in Elizabeth Taylor: The Lost Tapes, a new documentary featuring unearthed recordings of the Hollywood legend by journalist Richard Meryman. “The person my family know[s] is real. But the other Elizabeth Taylor, the famous one, really has no depth or meaning to me. It’s a commodity and it makes money. One is flesh and blood, and one is cellophane.” Taylor, who skyrocketed to fame as a child actor and was among the first film stars to receive a $1 million payday for a role, spent much of her life in the spotlight. It’s not surprising, then, that the late icon considered her public image to be completely divorced from her private persona.
8 Bedroom Design Ideas to Encourage Better Sleep
A well-designed bedroom can be a space of tranquility that ensures high-quality sleep and well-being.
Your bedroom is more than just a place to lay your head at night. A well-designed bedroom can be a space of tranquility that ensures optimal rest and sleep. And that’s a good thing because research has found a direct correlation between consistent, high-quality sleep and improved cognitive function, good health, and well-being.
Interior designers take this into account. “The spaces we live in have a huge impact on our mental health and overall well-being,” says Andrew Pharis, architect and interior design expert at Vertical Arts Architecture. “When designed properly, a space can positively impact a person’s mood. On the other hand, a poorly designed space can leave someone feeling frustrated or even make them sick.” Ahead, we spoke to design experts for their tips on making your bedroom a sanctuary for sleep.
19 Crown Molding Ideas That Will Add Character and Elegance to Any Room
This decorative trim makes any space feel more polished and complete.
Crown molding is a decorative trim—placed where wall meets ceiling—that lends a touch of polished elegance and personality to a space. In its early days it served the very utilitarian function of concealing gaps and cracks, but today it’s utilized primarily as an aesthetic addition to a home. Design-wise, crown molding typically features clean lines and minimal detailing, but there’s an entire spectrum of options available depending on your personal style. From ornate millwork to rustic wood to midcentury-inspired, let these pretty crown molding ideas inspire you.
The Viral Lenox Spice Village Is Back After 35 Years—and at Its Original 1989 Price
The Spice Village was discontinued decades ago but is being relaunched after vintage sets took social media by storm.
If there’s one trend we’re seeing everywhere in home design, it’s nostalgia. From floral wallpaper and thrifted furniture to the coastal grandmother aesthetic, many of today’s most popular trends are ones we’ve seen before.
With this wave of nostalgia comes a demand for products that were popular decades ago, such as the Lenox Spice Village. The collection of 24 porcelain spice jars that are shaped and painted to resemble miniature houses has been discontinued for nearly 35 years—until now.
