Paris Hilton is remembering what’s important in life after losing her Malibu home in the Los Angeles wildfires.

Hilton, 43, took to Instagram on Sunday, January 19, to share a video of her son Phoenix, 2, snuggled up in a blanket alongside the family’s two dogs.

The clip, which zoomed in on the youngster’s face and captured her pups Diamond and Baby lazing next to him, came with the text, “Take a moment to relax with sleepy Pheeny, Diamond, and Baby,” written over it.

The mother-of-two, who also shares daughter London, 1, with husband, Carter Reum, captioned the footage with a heartfelt message. “Some sleepy Pheeny and puppy footage for your feed 🧘🏼‍♀️🩷 Through everything that’s going on around us, sometimes we need an adorable reminder to take a mindful moment for ourselves 🥹 #SlivingMom,” Hilton wrote. (The term “Sliving” combines “slaying” and “living,” a word coined by Hilton.)

Paris Hilton Documents Emotional Visit to Burned Down L.A. Home

The post comes after Hilton confirmed via the social media platform on January 9 that she had watched her “home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV.” Detailing the experience at the time, she wrote, “This home was where we built so many precious memories. It’s where Phoenix took his first steps and where we dreamed of building a lifetime of memories with London.🥹.”

A heartbroken Hilton mustered a remarkable perspective even then, continuing with, “While the loss is overwhelming, I’m holding onto gratitude that my family and pets are safe. My heart and prayers are going out to every family affected by these fires. To all the people who have lost their homes, their memories, and their beloved pets. My heartaches for those still in harm’s way or mourning greater losses. The devastation is unimaginable.”

Hilton has maintained a positive outlook on the L.A. wildfires devastation, which affected a string of celebrities after breaking out due to a wind storm on January 7, lending a hand to displaced animals despite her personal heartbreak.

She shared via Instagram on Monday, January 13, that she intended to foster a dog who was surrendered by his family who had lost their home in the fire. “And we’re gonna go and see if there’s any other dogs where they are still looking for their owners,” Hilton posted at the time, adding a photo of herself doting on a cat in the hope of finding its owner amid the Altadena fires.

Hilton and a host of celebrities have shared vital disaster resource information in the aftermath of the natural disaster, with the socialite adding that her own charity organisation was offering assistance. The January 13 post continued, “My nonprofit @1111Media Impact has contributed to support the shelter’s efforts, and we’re still raising funds to help displaced families and pets 💰Every donation makes a difference in providing emergency relief, housing, and supplies. If you’re able to donate or volunteer, the Pasadena Humane Society is an incredible charity to support!”

What Kim Kardashian Has Said About Dating After Divorce

Kim Kardashian's Quotes About Dating After Divorce

Kim Kardashian has been candid through the years about dipping her toe back into the dating pool after divorce.

Kardashian initially tied the knot with producer Damon Thomas, with whom she was married for three years until the pair called it quits in 2003. Nearly one decade later, Kardashian got engaged to Kris Humphries in 2011 and exchanged vows later that year. Kardashian and Humphries split after 72 days of marriage, finalizing their divorce in April 2013.

Kardashian moved on with Kanye West, with whom she welcomed daughter North in 2013. The pair said “I do” in 2014 and added son Saint, daughter Chicago and son Psalm to their family in 2015, 2018 and 2019, respectively. After nearly seven years of marriage, Kardashian filed for divorce from West in 2021.

The reality star was later linked to Saturday Night Live’s Pete Davidson, with whom she dated for less than one year, before sparking romance rumors with Odell Beckham Jr. In May 2024, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that Kardashian and the NFL player were “taking a pause on seeing each other.” Months later, a separate insider exclusively told Us that Kardashian “has started dating someone new” and is “keeping it very under wraps.”

While reflecting on her relationship status during a January 2025 trailer for The Kardashians, she quipped, “I had the intention of staying single. I was fully lying to you guys. Me, not dating and not wanting love and attention? I don’t think you know me.”

Being a Hopeless Romantic

Kardashian opened up about her mindset when it comes to dating on a May 2023 episode of the “On Purpose With Jay Shetty” podcast. “I think I’ll always be a hopeless romantic and always want to be in love and definitely love sharing my life with someone and love creating a life with someone,” Kardashian said.

Kardashian noted that she didn’t plan to rush into another relationship because of how it will affect her children.

“I definitely will take my time, and I think there’s so many factors especially when you have kids and being mindful of people that enter in your life,” she said. “If I can look at everything that I did wrong and try to not make the same mistakes and really take my time, I think it just has to be different for me. It’s obviously such a hard place to be in because how do you go about it? There’s so many factors, but I’ll always believe in love and I’ll always want that and I think that’s such a magical part of life. But I think I’m so comfortable taking my time to not rush it.”

She added: “There’s so much going on that I’m not lonely, and I think that that is really important. I believe, like, I always believe. And I think that whatever’s meant to be will be.”

Sneaking Around

Kardashian told Scott Disick during a June 2023 episode of The Kardashians that she wanted to “sneak around a little bit.”

“There’s nothing wrong with wanting to sneak,” she said. “What is so funny is my friends wanted me to meet someone so I went to New York … [And this guy] so meets the standards.”

Manifesting Her Dream Partner

Kardashian explained what she’s looking for in a potential partner during a June 2023 episode of The Kardashians.

“[I need him to] protect me [and] fight for me. Good hygiene, and that is a given, so I should maybe take that off. [He should be] calm. No mom or dad issues. [I want someone who is] patient, supportive, genuinely happy for me [and] successful,” she shared. “[He should be] spontaneous, fun [and] my friends and family love him. [I want] someone that can be a role model for my kids — especially someone my boys can look up to.”

Kardashian noted that it’s important for her future partner to not have “heavy baggage,” adding, “I have enough. [I hope he is] taller than me and someone that loves to work out. [He should be a] motivated and independent person. Someone who is not clingy and someone with good taste.”

‘More Into Privacy These Days’

While appearing on a June 2023 episode of Hailey Bieber’s “Who’s In My Bathroom” YouTube series, the Kardashians star was asked if she has a current celebrity crush in a game of “Truth or Shot.”

“I almost want to take a drink because I kinda want it to come true,” Kardashian quipped, before noting that the secret man does not know how she feels. “I’m more into privacy these days.”

Not ‘Delusional’ to Think Someone Will ‘Check Every Single Box’

While reflecting on her ideal partner, Kardashian shared during a February 2024 episode of SiriusXM’s “This Life of Mine With James Corden” podcast that she’s “not so delusional to know that someone will check every single box.”

“[I’m looking for someone who is] accountable for actions,” she said. “Takes accountability, [has] good teeth, can hold their own and I don’t have to babysit [them] all the time. Just a good, genuine person that’s driven and has their own motivations in life.”

When asked whether her attempt to find her partner could result in a wedding, she replied, “I don’t know. I really don’t.”

“There’ll be moods where I’m just like, ‘You know what? I understand my life is really big and I understand it takes a really, really, really special, unique person to want to deal with that,’” she said. “I think my life is really fun and whoever comes into my life will have a really good time, but it’s a lot. I’m not lonely, so I’m good. I have my kids, I have work, I have my family, but it would be nice to share your life with someone, but when you do, it’s such a big … I don’t take that lightly.”

Chrissy Teigen Says Social Media Apps Should be 'Cut Off' Amid TikTok Drama

19 January 2025 at 16:23

Chrissy Teigen has come up with a plan to change how we all interact with social media — herself included.

In a series of videos shared on Saturday, January 18, Teigen, 39, discussed the drama surrounding the recent TikTok ban. 

“Let’s talk TikTok. Everyone is bummed. ‘OMG, it’s going to be shut down,’” the social media star said via Instagram. “It’s on a hiatus for now. It’s going to come back.”

In a following video, the model suggested that the government shut off social media from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. each day. “I come from the days where we had nothing and then we saw something,” she explained, referring to all social media apps in general.

“Guys, life was great,” she continued. “Life was awesome before this. I know it’s hard to see it now, but it’s doable. It’s very doable. This doesn’t have to be our lives.”

“And I say this for myself as well because — obviously — I’m on here [social media] right now doing this,” she continued. “But it doesn’t have to define us or be our whole lives.”

Teigen’s videos were posted hours after TikTok “went dark” ahead of the nationwide ban set to begin Sunday, January 19. Users in the United States who attempted to open the app were met with a message that read, “Sorry, TikTok isn’t available right now. A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the U.S. Unfortunately, that means you can’t use TikTok for now.”

Service was restored in the U.S.  on Sunday, January 19. “In agreement with our service providers, TikTok is in the process of restoring service,” TikTok explained in a statement shared via social media.

The TikTok Ban Explained: What Does It Mean for Influencers and Followers?

“We thank President Trump for providing the necessary clarity and assurance to our service providers that they will face no penalties providing TikTok to over 170 million Americans and allowing over 7 million small businesses to thrive,” the statement continued. “It’s a strong stand for the First Amendment and against arbitrary censorship. We will work with President Trump on a long-term solution that keeps TikTok in the United States.”

The app stopped working for users in the United States a few hours before midnight on the following day. Prior to and in the few hours during the black out, numerous celebrities spoke out about the ban.

Singer Kesha jokingly reminded her followers that her hit 2010 single “Tik Tok” would always be available for them no matter what happened to the app by the same name. In a video shared via Instagram on Saturday, the singer wore a black hoodie and closed her eyes while part of her 2010 hit song played. Over the video, she wrote, “TikTok may be temporary, but TiK ToK is forever,” adding both a peace sign and black heart emoji. The song was an instant hit when it debuted, spending nine weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Henry Cavill and girlfriend Natalie Viscuso are still flying as fast as a speeding bullet.

The Superman star and the Vertigo Entertainment executive first made headlines with their relationship in 2021 and have been each other’s biggest supporters ever since. Soon after taking their romance public, Viscuso shared her support for Cavill.

“I am so, so proud of you, Henry. You truly are the greatest man I have ever known,” she wrote via Instagram in 2021. “The Hollywood Reporter did an incredible job with this cover story – it really is a great read. SO PROUD I’m literally crying. 🤣.”

Viscuso wrote in a post of her own, “Just teaching my dear Henry how to play some chess…or…maybe he let me win? 🤷🏼‍♀️.”

May 2021

Cavill clapped back at critics of his relationship. “I couldn’t help but notice that there has been some social animosity of late. It’s becoming increasingly prevalent on my feed,” he wrote via Instagram at the time. “There has been lots of, let’s call it speculation for now, about my private life and professional partnerships.”

He went on to ask his followers to refrain from commenting on his personal life. “I know it can be fun to speculate, to gossip, and to dive into our own personal echo chambers on the internet, but your ‘passion’ is misplaced, and it causes harm to the people I care about most,” he added. “Even your most conservative of negative assumptions about both my personal and professional life just aren’t true.”

Glenn Close Says One Movie Made Audiences Realize She 'Could Be Sexy'

19 January 2025 at 14:42

Glenn Close has pinpointed the movie that she believes made audiences finally realize she could be more than Cruella de Vil — her 1978 film Fatal Attraction.

“I think it was the first time people realized I could be sexy,” Close, 77, said during an interview with Today’s Willie Geist on the Sunday, January 19 episode of Sunday Sitdown.

The movie stars Close as Alex Forrest, a woman who starts an affair with Dan Gallagher (Michael Douglas). She becomes steadily more and more mentally unstable as it becomes clear he’s trying to end the relationship, ultimately to her demise.

Where Is Her Oscar?! Glenn Close Through the Years: Her Life in Photos

The film began as the short Diversion before it was developed into a feature-length production by writer-director James Dearden. It spent eight weeks at No. 1 in the box office and was the second-highest-grossing film in 1987, falling short of Three Men and a Baby. Fatal Attraction earned more than $157 million domestically and earned six Academy Award nominations, including for Close.

In addition to reminiscing on her storied Hollywood career, Close has recently opened up about her personal life. While appearing on  The Drew Barrymore Show on Monday, January 13, the actress was asked if she’s dated since her 2015 divorce from David Shaw. (The pair were married for nine years.) Close revealed that not only has she been single the entire time, she is “very happy right now.”

After host Drew Barrymore asked if Close has tried any dating apps, she replied, “Are you crazy?” before she added, “No, I’m too shy to do that.”

Close also said she’s not especially interested in finding a relationship. “I’m not searching,” she added. “Because I’m actually, I’m not a hugely, comfortably, social person, so I don’t leap to go to a party.”

What Did Glenn Close Say During Censored Golden Globes Speech?

Prior to her marriage to Shaw, Close was married to James Marlas from 1984 to 1987 and Cabot Wade from 1969 to 1971. She also shares daughter, Annie Starke Albu, with ex-boyfriend John Starke.

The actress went on to star in several critically acclaimed films following Fatal Attraction, including Dangerous Liaisons, The Wife, Hillbilly Elegy, Air Force One and 101 Dalmations. She also earned an Emmy Award for the 1995 TV movie Serving in Silence: The Margarethe Cammermeyer Story.

Close has yet to win an Academy Award for acting, despite having been nominated eight times throughout her career. In 2021, she told Variety that she’s not too upset about having lost out. “It’s beyond me. I don’t know what to say about that,” she explained. I just have to keep doing what’s good. You’re fulfilled by your work, and that’s the process to me. It’s what feeds my soul, but it really is nice when other people like it. It might be cool to never get one.”

While turning 70, Kevin Costner is remembering the late Whitney Houston.

Costner marked his 70th trip around the sun on Saturday, January 18, sharing a throwback photo via Instagram Story of himself and the late singer while on the set of 1992’s Bodyguard. The pair both starred in the romantic thriller, which earned two 1993 Academy Award nominations for Best Original Song.

“This photo reminds me of how lucky I am to be getting another birthday,” the Yellowstone star wrote. “We lost such a light when we lost Whitney.”

The photo was originally shared via Houston’s Instagram, now managed by her estate, to honor Costner’s milestone birthday. “Happy birthday to Kevin Costner!” the caption read. “A behind the scenes photo from The Bodyguard with Kevin, Whitney and Ellin La Var, Whitney’s hair stylist for the film.”

Costner has previously been open about the love he still has for Houston, who died in 2012 at the age of 48. “I loved her — it’s not like this giant mystery — so I knew that she should be the one,” he said on a June 2024 episode of “Armchair Expert” podcast.

At the time, Costner, who also produced the film, recalled that Bodyguard director Mick Jackson was “afraid” of Houston, so the actor “started to guide her” on set. The actor said he had to advise the singer “not to bring an entourage” during the film’s production.

“And I wasn’t trying to usurp my director, but I had made a promise to her, not to f—ing him,” Costner continued, noting he had promised Houston the film would perform well in theaters despite poor reception during test screenings.

“I was always gonna keep my promise to her,” he said. “[I said], ‘I’m gonna take care of you if there’s a person important to you’ — turned out to be Robyn Crawford — I said, ‘Let’s have Robyn with you.’ And that’s how we started.”

He added, “I don’t know what it was, but we had a moment, and I realized that the world had a higher idea of who we were, so I basically embraced it. I was her imaginary bodyguard.”

“Whitney returns home today to the place where it all began,” he told mourners at the time. “And I urge us all, inside and outside, across the nation and around the world to dry our tears, suspend our sorrow — and perhaps our anger — just long enough, just long enough to remember the sweet miracle of Whitney.”

“Off you go, Whitney, off you go,” he continued. “Escorted by an army of angels to your heavenly father, and when you sing before him, don’t worry … you’ll be good enough.”
