Olivia Rodrigo is seemingly still feeling “so American” next to boyfriend Louis Partridge — especially during their most recent New York City date.

Rodrigo and Partridge, both 21, were spotted enjoying a romantic stroll around Greenwich Village on Friday, January 17. The actor was seen walking alongside Rodrigo, wrapping an arm around her lower back.

Both the Grammy winner and Partridge dressed casually for the outing. Rodrigo sported a striped shirt underneath a quilted black coat with blue trousers and a pair of sunglasses. Partridge, meanwhile, opted for a black buttoned jacket and khakis.

The couple have been dating since fall 2023 after they were spotted packing on the PDA in Partridge’s native London. Since then, the couple have kept their romance relatively low-key and out of the public eye.

Olivia Rodrigo and Boyfriend Louis Partridge's Relationship Timeline

“Dating probably shouldn’t be done in the public eye,” Partridge told British Vogue in a March 2024 profile. “There’s enough going on between two people. You don’t need the voices of thousands of others in your head. I think she’s got it a lot worse than I have. I can be a bit of a normal person. She’s got tons and tons of eyes on her case.”

He added at the time, “If there’s a load of people nattering in a room about you, you can choose to put your ear to the door to hear what they say or not. I think you’re probably better off not letting curiosity get the better of you.”

Partridge has since been a staple at Rodrigo’s concerts in the United States and across the pond. She’s returned the favor by supporting his career achievements when they made their red carpet debut at the August 2024 premiere of his show Disclaimer during the Venice International Film Festival.

Is Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘So American’ About Rumored Boyfriend Louis Partridge?

Fans have also speculated that Rodrigo’s song “So American” was written about Partridge.

“And he laughs at all my jokes / And he says I’m so American / Oh God, it’s just not fair of him / To make me feel this much,” Rodrigo sings on the song, which she dropped in March 2024 on her album Guts. “I’d go anywhere he goes / And he says I’m so American /Oh God, I’m gonna marry him / If he keeps this s— up.” 

Rodrigo famously opts against naming her songwriting muses — including on 2021’s “Drivers License,” which was heavily rumored to be about her ex Joshua Bassett — and Partridge has done the same.

“Not my song, not my place,” the British star succinctly told Elle in October 2024. “So, I wouldn’t know.”

Having Taylor Swift rock a custom ‘87’ necklace to the 2024 Super Bowl was “obviously a highlight of my career,” jewelry designer Stephanie Gottlieb said on the “Conversations with Cam” podcast Wednesday, January 15. 

“That was kind of this new phase of celebrity, which is through PR,” she continued. The early days of her career were “completely organic,” she continued — a shift from how she’s approached now. 

“My PR team has their relationships and they’re communicating with stylists all the time, and we have ideas that we’re pitching to PR to say, ‘Okay, we want to work with so-and-so and here’s an idea for a piece of jewelry,’” she added, “and that’s what happened in that case.”

Swift famously wore the diamond and yellow gold necklace to last year’s big football game. She paired the necklace with a diamond tennis choker also by Gottlieb. 

Taylor Swift Proves She's Travis' Biggest Fan With Chiefs-Inspired Jewelry

The necklace, of course, was a nod to Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce, who wears number 87 for the Kansas City Chiefs. The back-to-back Super Bowl champs are expected to make their third consecutive appearance at this year’s Super Bowl. If they win, they’ll become the first NFL team to ever win three consecutive championships. 

 

 

“My president is a huge Chiefs fan, so she was watching the games last December,” Gottlieb  explained during the same interview. “[They] texted me on a Sunday night and was like, ‘If you want to do your varsity lettering … we need to do it now, and you need to make one for Taylor and send it to her.” 

The team had no idea if Swift would like the necklace, and the singer’s stylist made it clear that she couldn’t make any promises. “And then at 2 p.m. the day of the Super Bowl, I see a blurry screen grab from TV of her walking through the tunnel wearing the necklace, and it was just the most wild flurry of things.”

In an interview on The Stephen A. Smith Show on Wednesday, January 15, Kelce told the show’s host that the singer is a big reason why he’s still enthusiastic about football. “She’s fully encouraging me to enjoy playing this game,” he said. “She loves coming to Arrowhead [Stadium] and coming to the games and cheering for me, so I got all the support in the world to keep chasing these dreams.”

“That’s why I wanted to be at [her] concerts supporting her and being there for her, making sure she feels comfortable and supported in everything she’s doing in life,” he added.

Christopher Walken has fond memories of dancing with both Judy Garland and Liza Minnelli.

Walked, 81, appeared on SiriusXM’s “Town Hall,” hosted by Andy Cohen, on Thursday, January 16, where Cohen, 56, asked, “I read you danced with a young Liza Minnelli. Do you remember that?”

Walken replied, “We did an Off-Broadway musical called Best Foot Forward. 1962. Well, she was 16 years old, I remember.” At the time, Walken would have been about 19 years old. Cohen followed up by asking the Dune: Part Two star, “Could you see it then that she had it?”

Walken said, “Oh, absolutely.” He shared that he had even been invited to Minnelli’s 16th birthday party, where he had a special moment with Garland, his costar’s mother. “Her mom gave a sweet 16 birthday party for her,” he added.

Liza Minnelli Says Mom Judy Garland Was a 'Challenging’ Part of Childhood

“I remember I danced with Judy Garland,” he continued, adding that the Wizard of Oz actress was not only a good dancer, but “very good looking.”

Walken’s acting career is diverse, spanning both the stage and screen. He is currently starring in the AppleTV+ series Severance, which premiered its second season on Friday, January 17. In a 2014 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Minnelli praised her Best Foot Forward costar as a true musical actor.

“I can see the glint in his eye every time he has the opportunity to dance on screen,” she said at the time. Walken seemingly agreed with Minnelli, telling the outlet, “I’m kind of an actor by way of musical comedy. That’s really my education, musicals.”

With a career spanning almost seven decades, Walken is an old school kind of guy, even when it comes to watching his own projects. Currently starring on Severance, Walken shared on Thursday’s “Town Hall” that he hasn’t seen every episode because he does not stream the series. Instead, he receives DVDs of each new episode.

Celebrity Couples Who Have Been Together for 50 Years (Or Longer!)

“I don’t have the equipment,” he explained. “So they’re good enough to send me DVDs.” When Cohen further pressed Walken by asking if the actor had a subscription to the AppleTV+ streaming platform, he said, “I don’t have anything.”

Walken currently stars in season 2 of Severance alongside Adam Scott, Britt Lower and Patricia Arquette. Series creator Dan Erickson previously opened up about his plans for the show’s second installment when it was renewed in April 2022.

“In season 2, we’re going to be showing all of these people on the outside,” Erickson told Entertainment Weekly at the time. “Similar to Mark (Scott), they each had their own reason for getting this procedure, and they’re all at some stage of a healing process for one thing or another.”

New episodes of Severance drop Fridays on AppleTV+.

Kevin Costner has been in show business since the 1980s, wearing many hats — including actor, producer, director and musician.

Costner became a household name in 1987, when he starred in both The Untouchables and No Way Out. A man of the silver screen throughout much of his career, Costner transitioned to television in 2012, portraying Devil Anse Hatfield in the History Channel’s Hatfield & McCoys miniseries. The role earned him an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie.

The California native cemented his TV star status in 2018 when he began starring as John Dutton III in the Paramount Network’s Yellowstone, earning a Golden Globe for Best Television Actor in a Drama Series for his performance in 2023.

Aside from his career, the Let Him Go producer is also a family man, having welcomed seven children over the years. He shares daughters Annie and Lily, born in 1984 and 1986, respectively, and son Joe, born in 1988, with ex-wife Cindy Silva. After the pair’s divorce in 1994, Costner had a brief relationship with Bridget Rooney, with whom he welcomed son Liam in 1996.

Costner went on to marry Christine Baumgartner in 2004. The couple share sons Cayden and Hayes, born in 2007 and 2009, respectively, and daughter Grace, born in 2010. Nearly 19 years after tying the knot, Baumgartner filed for divorce from the actor, Us Weekly confirmed in May 2023.

Gracie Hunt, the daughter of the owners of the Kansas City Chiefs, has seen firsthand how Taylor Swift impacted the team’s fanbase.

“She is absolutely incredible, as the whole world knows, and it’s been such a special time to have her be a part of Chiefs Kingdom,” Gracie, the eldest daughter of Clark and Tavia Hunt, told People in an interview published on Friday, January 17. “She is just as beautiful and wonderful as you’d ever imagine her to be, so smart and intelligent.”

Swift, 35, has been a member of Chiefs Kingdom — the fan nickname for supporters — since she started dating tight end Travis Kelce in summer 2023. By that fall, the pop star started attending games to cheer on her boyfriend, and she hasn’t slowed down after more than a year of dating. With Swift tuning into the NFL matchups more frequently, so are her legions of dedicated followers.

“It feels a little bit surreal,” Gracie, 25, told People, speculating that the Chiefs fanbase has grown “between 30 and 40 percent from [Swift’s] attendance.”

Chiefs Heiress Gracie Hunt Opens Up About Meeting 'Brilliant' Taylor Swift

Gracie and her relatives have also gotten a chance to mingle with Swift and her crew at the games.

“She is just so beautiful, kind, gracious and sweet,” Gracie exclusively told Us Weekly in February 2024. “We’re very lucky to have her as a part of Chiefs Kingdom, and I’m so glad and feel so honored to watch the way that she’s also embraced and fallen in love with the sport of football.”

Gracie, who noted to Us that 35-year-old Kelce is equally kind, also enjoyed watching their love story unfold.

“I mean, they’re the ultimate power couple we can all cheer for, am I right? It’s so fun to watch,” she told Us at the time, days before the Chiefs won the 2024 Super Bowl and Kelce celebrated by kissing Swift on the field. “I think they really match each other’s energy levels and are a really good match. I hope they’re end game!”

Chiefs Owner Says Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce's Romance Is 'Purely Organic'

The Chiefs are now hoping to clinch their third consecutive Super Bowl win next month — just don’t mention the potential record to the players themselves.

“I haven’t heard anybody talk about anything ‘three-peat’ [or] anything like that,” Kelce, one of the Chiefs’ playoff captains, said in a Saturday, January 18, ESPN interview. “We’re focused on the Houston Texans right now.”

The Chiefs are the No. 1 seed in the AFC and will play the Texans in the divisional playoff round on Saturday afternoon for a slot in the conference championship. The AFC champ will go on to the Super Bowl, facing off against the NFC titleholder.

“Anybody can get beat in the playoffs if you don’t come in with the right mentality and the right mindset dating back to training camp and throughout the season,” Kelce added ahead of Saturday’s game. “We have such a veteran team. We have so many leaders in so many different ways. Guys step up and guys just understand the task at hand.”

Jason Kelce’s headlining late-night talk show is truly a family affair.

“The show, obviously, needs its own mascot,” Kelce, 37, said during the Saturday, January 18, episode of ESPN’s They Call It Late Night. “We went out to get the perfect design team for the job.”

In a prerecorded segment, Jason and wife Kylie Kelce — the official They Call It Late Night announcer — asked their children to come up with a mascot. Jason and Kylie, 32, share daughters Wyatt, 5, Ellie, 3, and Bennett, 23 months. (Kylie is also currently pregnant with baby No. 4, another girl.)

Before the littlest Kelces could get to work crafting their ideas, Jason tested them on their knowledge.

“Do you know what a mascot is? Who’s the Eagles’ mascot?” he asked, to which Ellie correctly identified Swoop. (Jason played center for the Philadelphia Eagles throughout his entire NFL career before retiring in March 2024.)

“We need to make our own version of a Swoop,” Jason said. “And I thought it’d be fun if we all designed it together.”

Wyatt, Ellie and Bennett then went to work coloring in potential mascots — complete with “something to drink” in its hand.

“I think we have a mascot, girlies,” Jason later said. “We have Wyatt’s face, Ellie’s body and then we have the ‘pizza hand’ you drew over here [and] ‘chicken legs.’ This is our mascot.”

Wyatt and Ellie had opted to name their mascot “Dragon McFart-Fart Butt-Butt.”

“OK, sounds like he’s Irish?” Jason quipped in response, later bringing the complete drawing into the ESPN studio.

Speaking to the live audience, he gushed that the girls “nailed” the artistic task.

“I think Ellie was going for the face as well, but she got a body,” Jason mentioned. “I don’t really know how [Kylie] got Bennie to draw anything. I’ve never gotten Bennie to draw something.”

According to Kylie, Bennett had contributed an “accidental scribble” that turned out to resemble legs. The drawing was the inspiration for a mascot costume that one of Jason’s colleagues donned for the rest of the broadcast.

“Hello, I’m Dragon McFart-Fart Butt-Butt. It’s so fun to be here,” the mascot bellowed to Jason and Kylie’s respective amusement. “Thanks so much for making me girls.”

Jason, meanwhile, was in awe that his kids “f—ing nailed” the design.

“Well done! I don’t even know what to say,” he further mused. “It’s so good. … I just love this thing so much. It turned out incredibly perfect. I wish we had it forever, it’s a shame we only have it for two more weeks.”

Kelce’s They Call It Late Night airs Saturdays at 1 a.m. ET during the NFL playoffs, which wrap in February with the 2025 Super Bowl.

Before I was pregnant, I thought I’d be someone who never bought maternity clothes. A lifelong lover of stretchy waistbands and loose layers, I figured the stuff in my closet would simply expand enough to cover my growing belly. I soon realized I was wrong (everything felt restrictive by the second trimester!), so I went on a search to find the best flared maternity leggings for petites.

At 5’0, I needed a pair that wouldn’t sweep the ground if I wore them outside, but like most short girl fashion dilemmas, finding something that was quality and inexpensive wasn’t easy. Thankfully, Amazon came to the rescue with the Joyspels Smooth Feeling Flare Maternity Leggings, which are the perfect length, come in multiple colors and are currently on sale for up to 30% off.

Get the Joyspels Smooth Feeling Flare Maternity Leggings starting at just $19 (originally $27) at Amazon! Please note, prices are accurate at the date of publication but are subject to change.

Initially, I purchased these pregnancy pants in black, hoping to keep things classic and versatile. However, I’ve worn them so much since they arrived last December that I’ve since ordered two additional pairs in brown and blue. While the bottoms come in six different colorways in total, the main draw for me has been the length. Shoppers can choose between 29-, 32- and 35-inch fits, ensuring they’re perfect for those with short legs (and long ones, too).

Thankfully, flared leggings have been in my rotation for a while (like, since the days they were called yoga pants) so I know there are a million ways to style them. While my go-to way to wear my leggings is with an oversized sweatshirt or sweater, I’ve recently embraced showcasing my stomach, pairing this Amazon pick with a form-fitting T-shirt or a sleek, cropped cardigan.

Another detail worth noting? These maternity leggings include side pockets large enough to hold your iPhone or keys. It makes them ideal for days when I’m running errands or need a free hand while walking the dog.

Amazon customers are just as into these flared leggings as I am, leaving plenty of 5-star reviews.

“Soft without compromising on quality,” one person wrote. “They have a bit of weight, unlike cheaper versions of these pants. Not see-through. Flattering fit (not too tight and not loose in the wrong places). The length was just right. I’m pretty impressed with these and grateful to wear something that makes me feel good about my body at 29 weeks. I may need to size up in the future (depending on how much bigger I get).”

“If you are pregnant, RUN, do not walk to get these pants,” said another reviewer. “I was inspired to get a pant like this by my sister-in-law who had a very expensive $90 pair, so I was determined to find a look alike. I was having a really hard time, had gone through tons of different pairs and then I found this pair. Not only does it make me feel good and supported at 34 plus weeks, I genuinely don’t want to wear anything else. I will wear these pants every day. If they had more colors, I would have every color. They are so comfortable. The material doesn’t get dirty. The stretch is perfect. The fit is perfect. The support on my stomach is absolutely perfect. Doesn’t cause any discomfort anywhere and I get very uncomfortable very easily with any slight pressure. Get these pants. Get these pants. Get these pants. Thank me later.”

While the Blue Steel option is the cheapest right now, all of the colors are currently on sale for Prime members. Hurry up and snag a pair while you can. They’ll also make a nice gift for a mom-to-be!

The Sassiest Baby Clothes That Make the Cutest Gifts

Today meteorologist Dylan Dreyer was surprised to find out that colleague Hoda Kotb planned to leave the acclaimed morning show.

“I was in Nashville ’cause I had just covered the People’s Choice Country Music Awards [in September 2024]. She calls me at 6:55. I’m like, ‘Why is Hoda calling me? I hope everything’s OK,’” Dreyer, 43, exclusively told Us Weekly on Friday, January 17, ahead of her participation in the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions. “She whispers into her phone, ‘Just want you to know the announcement’s coming out today. I’m leaving the Today Show.’”

Dreyer continued, “And I was like, ‘Wait, what?’ It was such a tightly kept secret. I don’t know if anybody knew ’cause I called Al [Roker] and he said he found out that morning before the show, and Craig [Melvin] found out that morning before the show. It was shocking, but I would say not surprising because once you found out why she was doing it, it was like, ‘Oh, yeah, that makes so much sense.’”

Kotb, 60, confirmed in September 2024 that she planned to leave Today after three decades on the air. She initially joined the TV network in 2007, later becoming an anchor in 2018 alongside Savannah Guthrie.

'Today' Show Hosts React to Hoda Kotb's Surprising Exit

Kotb’s final shows aired live earlier this month, which were especially emotional for the Today crew and viewers alike.

“Hoda’s like your favorite aunt, who you loved when she showed up. … I mean, she was the heart and soul of the Today show and really brought that to the people,” Dreyer told Us. “Everybody’s like, ‘What’s Hoda like in person?’ She’s exactly what you see on TV. I mean, none of that is phony, but at the same time, she chose this new path. She wants to get into the wellness space and she’s still gonna do Olympics coverage and do special stories … so she’s still gonna be a part of the show. This was her choice, so you can’t help but root her on and cheer her on for that.”

Dreyer will still get a frequent “Hoda fix” off-screen too, since the two broadcasters are also neighbors. (Ahead of her Today exit, Kotb moved to the suburbs of New York with daughters Hope and Haley.)

After Kotb’s Today departure, Melvin, 45, took over Kotb’s position as coanchor.

“We’ve all worked together for so long now that nothing feels different,” Dreyer said on Friday of the new Today lineup. “Everybody’s got different titles and stuff, but nothing really feels different because it makes sense for Craig to take over that role — and he’s like a brother to me.”

She added, “It’s just one big happy family and everything’s kind of getting rearranged a little bit, but the other morning I did send Savannah a text message. I’m like, ‘Savannah, I just wanna say kudos to you’ because she’s had to give so much lately.”

According to Dreyer, Guthrie, 53, had to watch “the goodbyes to Hoda” before the crew started to “build Craig up for this new role.”

“I just wanted to say, ‘Kudos to you for having to step back and give everyone their flowers for so long,’” Dreyer noted. “I think she handled it with such grace and it’s nice to give, give, give, but it’s also nice to receive. So I’m like, ‘I hope you realize how integral you are when it comes to the Today show.’”

While Dreyer is also an integral member of the NBC News family, she’s briefly trading the broadcasting studio for the fairway. She will compete in the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions golf game in Orlando, Florida, later in January against other celebrities.

Hoda Kotb Sends Shout-Out to 'Today' Show Replacement Craig Melvin

“[Golf] opens up so many doors for you. It’s, like, the fact that, at some point in my life, I learned to play golf just good enough to get invited to these things has opened up a whole new world,” Dreyer quipped to Us. “There’s so much fun, the people you meet and that you’re hanging out with; it’s like a pinch-me moment. It’s all your favorite sports stars [and] the celebrities that you watch on TV. It’s, like, you’re in a place where you’re cool enough to be with them. It’s just so much fun.”

The Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions takes place at Orlando’s Lake Nona Golf & Country Club from Thursday, January 30 to Sunday, February 2.

Sarah Ferguson is opening up about the impact two back-to-back cancer diagnoses had on her mental health.

“It was hard. I’m generally a positive person but cancer is like a bomb going off in your life,” Sarah Ferguson, 65, told The Times in an interview published on Friday, January 17. “One diagnosis is enough to deal with, but I had two in the space of a year. I don’t mind admitting that my mind went to some dark places, reflecting on my own mortality.”

Ferguson announced in June 2023 that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer following a routine mammogram. She later underwent a mastectomy and reconstructive surgery. Just six months later, in January 2024, the duchess announced she was diagnosed with malignant melanoma, a type of skin cancer.

“Her dermatologist asked that several moles were removed and analyzed at the same time as the Duchess was undergoing reconstructive surgery following her mastectomy, and one of those has been identified as cancerous,” a representative for the royal family member said in a statement to Us Weekly at the time.

Sarah Ferguson Says She's 'Feeling Positive' After 2nd Cancer Diagnosis

While Ferguson recently joked to The Times that she renamed her reconstructed breast “Derek,” she also revealed that her back-to-back cancer diagnoses took an immense toll on her mental health. Thankfully, she explained, she found ways to cope.

“I’ve used meditation and mindfulness to help stay positive and balanced,” she explained, adding that her family has been “an immense support to me through this period.” (Ferguson shares daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie with her ex-husband and embattled royal, Prince Andrew.)

In June 2024, while speaking to Hello!, Ferguson gave royal fans a health update, saying that she has to be “checked regularly” and has to “put cream on my face to get out past sun damage.”

“(It) means big blisters on my face, chest and hands for three weeks,” she explained at the time. “But I’m not doing immunotherapy, taking any drugs or doing chemotherapy, for which I’m very grateful.”

Sarah Ferguson Breaks Silence on Kate Middleton's Cancer Battle

In the same profile interview, Ferguson once again praised her “most exceptional family,” going on to say that she has “an extraordinarily great team” and an “enormous ability to turn to joy.”

“I have always brought my girls to be so honest and frank that they know I’m going to tell it to them straight, however difficult it is,” the duchess continued.

In May 2024, while appearing on an episode of U.K’s This Morning, Princess Beatrice revealed that her mother was in the “all clear.”

“She’s such a phenomenal icon. As a mum, she’s been amazing, she’s been through so much and her sense of purpose and resilience really keeps me going,” the royal said at the time. “At 64 she’s thriving; she’s been through so much, but I think really now she’s coming into her own.”

The Kansas City Chiefs aren’t letting their No. 1 seed ranking in the AFC get to their heads — even with a possible back-to-back-to-back Super Bowl win on the line.

“I haven’t heard anybody talk about anything ‘three-peat’ [or] anything like that,” tight end Travis Kelce, one of the team’s playoff captains, said in a preview for his upcoming ESPN interview with Chris Berman. “We’re focused on the Houston Texans right now.”

The Chiefs, who are ranked No. 1 in the AFC conference, battle the Texans in a Saturday, January 18, divisional playoff game. The winner advances to the conference championship against either the Buffalo Bills or the Baltimore Ravens. Of course, the AFC champ will secure a place in the Super Bowl against the NFC’s own titleholder.

“Anybody can get beat in the playoffs if you don’t come in with the right mentality and the right mindset dating back to training camp and throughout the season,” Kelce, 35, explained ahead of Saturday’s football game. “We have such a veteran team. We have so many leaders in so many different ways. Guys step up and guys just understand the task at hand.”

Travis Kelce Reveals Whether Taylor Swift Will Attend Chiefs Playoff Game

If the Chiefs win the Super Bowl next month, they will become the first NFL team to win the championship three times in a row. Kelce, in particular, was signed with the Missouri team when they earned the Lombardi trophy in 2020, 2023 and 2024, respectively. (The Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers in 2020 and 2023, and the Philadelphia Eagles in 2023.)

The 2024 big game was especially special for Kelce. In addition to winning the trophy, he was able to celebrate the moment with a sideline kiss from girlfriend Taylor Swift, whom he started dating in 2023. The pop star, 35, has since become a staple at his football games and is expected to make an appearance on Saturday.

“You know it, baby,” Kelce teased her attendance during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show earlier this week. “You know it’s playoff football, man. … I’m feeling fired up. I’m ‘feeling 22’ [like Swift’s song] all over again, baby. Let’s go!”

Patrick Mahomes Sets High Expectations for Travis Kelce in the Playoffs

Days later, Kelce gushed about his “very strong relationship” with Swift and having her game day support. (She often rocks up to KC’s Arrowhead Stadium decked out in team gear and colors, in addition to custom jewelry honoring Kelce’s 87 jersey number.)

“Me and Taylor are happy and I couldn’t be happier to have that confidence and that comfort off the field and all the support I could ever ask for in the stadium,” Kelce said on the Wednesday, January 15, episode of the Stephen A. Smith Show. “She loves coming to Arrowhead and coming to the games and cheering for me, so I got all the support in the world to keep chasing these dreams.”

The season 3 Traitors were nearly caught scheming not once but multiple times.

During an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, contestant — and Faithful — Chrishell Stause recalled numerous close calls for the cloaked individuals on The Traitors.

“There’s two moments, to be honest with you, where they’re in that hidden little bar area,” Chrishell, 43, shared about the hit Peacock series. “There’s the part that they cut off the [third] episode on. But I remember one other part too. I remember being in that room and being like, ‘Wait, I heard that door click.'”

Chrishell had her own near run-in, adding, “I remember trying to push in and trying to get in and it wasn’t letting me in. So I was like, ‘Either someone’s holding it from the other side or it’s locked.'”

All Rules and Behind-the-Scenes Secrets You Didn’t Know About ‘The Traitors’

She continued: “Honestly, there were quite a few times where I think they must have not been caught by the skin of their teeth. As you see — because I wasn’t in that room — there’s other times where something happens at the beginning of the episode that will [inspire] suspicions. I remember us being like, ‘I wasn’t there, but somebody heard something.'”

Season 3, which premiered earlier this month, started off with Bob the Drag Queen, Danielle Reyes and Carolyn Wiger as the Traitors. By the second episode, Rob “Boston Rob” Mariano joined the group and Bob was subsequently banished after Rob turned on him.

Chrishell, however, wasn’t privy to the drama as a Faithful.

“I feel like once you’ve proven yourself as a Faithful — if you have done that — you then also have to work double time to put suspicion off yourself that you could maybe be a Traitor. It’s a rough game because you have to time it and thread that needle perfectly,” she noted. “So of course it’s easy for me now to say, ‘But I also wish I had just been a little more vocal when I have those suspicions.'”

The Selling Sunset star had regrets about not speaking up more. “There were times that I was right on someone and I bring it up to a few people,” she noted. “And obviously I either bring it up [and it didn’t go anywhere]. It’s frustrating when you know you were right about someone and you’re like, ‘Oh, I should have been louder.'”

Chanel Ayan Compares Dylan Efron to Ted Bundy: 'He Was So Good to Look At'

Inspired by Dutch series De Verraders (which previously led to a popular U.K. version) , The Traitors brings together celebrities, especially reality TV stars from different franchises — including Survivor, Big Brother, Real Housewives and more — as they compete in a mafia-style game for up to $250,000.

In addition to Chrishell, season 3 features Wells Adams, Gabby Windey, Ciara Miller, Jeremy Collins, Carolyn, Tony Vlachos, Bob the Drag Queen, Britney Haynes and Danielle. Bob Harper, Dylan Efron, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, Sam Asghari and Nikki Bella made up the rest of the group with later additions Boston Rob, Wes Bergmann and Derrick Levasseur.

While Chrishell had practice in the reality TV space, she still dealt with plenty of surprises on The Traitors.

“The hours filming The Traitors are just so long, and you have no sleep. At least with Selling Sunset, you get to sit in a chair and have glam. But then, they’re going after your personal lives,” she quipped. “Even though I had no sleep and I didn’t have my phone on [The Traitors], I still would rather someone go after me in that way and not go after my actual family and friends. Selling Sunset is more stressful.”

Chrishell went on to share some unexpected behind the scenes details about filming The Traitors, saying, “I would’ve died to have glam in the castle, but [host] Alan Cumming does not allow us to have glam in the castle. We’re filming from around 8 to the time he had to be ready to go. I think the latest I got home was 2 in the morning.”

She continued: “Then you’ve got the challenges, and you’ve got to hurry and change. So obviously, I absolutely love the experience, and it’s one of those things where you are just dying not to leave. So, in the game, I love it and anyone would be heartbroken to leave. But that being said, your body is so tired too.”

New episodes of The Traitors will be released on Peacock Thursdays until March 6.

Katy Perry had the best day “catching up” with Taylor Swift backstage at the Eras Tour last year.

“I actually went and did a show in Australia very quickly and I had one day off before the show,” Perry, 40, recalled in a Friday, January 17, TikTok video with U.K. radio show Capital. “I had one day off and I was like, ‘Hey girl, I’m gonna come to the show’ and she was so excited.”

She continued, “I was so excited. People gave me bracelets, and I think Rita Ora gave me a bracelet. I loved it. It’s just like a big community — an adorable, sweet community.”

Perry attended one of Swift’s February 2024 shows in Sydney, later meeting up with the fellow pop star backstage.

Taylor Swift Initiates Standing Ovation for Katy Perry During 2024 VMAs

“I got to see her and we got to catch up,” Perry gushed to Capital, referring to the Instagram selfie that the pair took to capture the moment. “I love her so much.”

Swift, 35, and Perry became friends in 2009 after they both made their initial mark on the music scene. They later sparked feud speculation after their respective flings with John Mayer and rumors surfaced that Perry poached Swift’s backup dancers for her own tour.

“She did something so horrible. I was like, ‘Oh, we’re just straight-up enemies.’ And it wasn’t even about a guy! It had to do with business,” Swift claimed to Rolling Stone in 2014. “She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour. She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me. And I’m surprisingly non-confrontational — you would not believe how much I hate conflict. So now I have to avoid her. It’s awkward, and I don’t like it.”

At the time, Swift said that she vowed to never mention Perry publicly again. They ultimately buried the hatchet by 2018, one year before the “I Kissed a Girl” singer made a surprise appearance in Swift’s “You Need to Calm Down” music video.

“I just thought, you know, she was about to embark on something new and big and needed the support,” Perry said on KIIS 1065’s The Kyle & Jackie O Show in July 2018, referring to her music video cameo and Swift’s Reputation Tour. ”And truly, as I was finishing mine, I realized how much we have in common. And maybe there’s only five other people in the world that can have the same type of conversations and understand where we’re coming from, and that we should celebrate our commonality and our friendship and to be able to be there for each other.”

Katy Perry Is All-In on Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's Romance

After Perry and partner Orlando Bloom welcomed daughter Daisy two years later in 2020, Swift sent a homemade baby blanket to congratulate the new parents.

Brian Baumgartner is thrilled about the upcoming spinoff of The Office — but he wanted to clarify a misconception that the OG cast is returning for the new installment.

“Everything that I’ve heard about it sounds amazing. I have no doubt that fans are going to enjoy it,” Baumgartner, 52, exclusively told Us Weekly while promoting his participation in the Hilton Grand Vacations 2025 Tournament of Champions later this month. “I wish the messaging was a little clearer about what it was.”

Baumgartner noted that creator Greg Daniels has tried to specify that the project isn’t a revival, adding, “Greg has tried really hard to get that out there. The thing that is difficult is there are still people who believe that we’re going back to Dunder Mifflin in the next couple of months. That certainly isn’t happening.”

While Baumgartner is excited for the spinoff, he hoped viewers know that the series will be focused on an entirely new location and set of characters.

Everything to Know About Peacock's Upcoming 'The Office' Spinoff

“Michael Koman, who is a cocreator with Greg, is a really smart guy and Greg is a genius. He has been so reticent about stepping into that world because he’s not wanting to upset the fans,” the actor continued. “I do think, however, that at some point in time, the gang will get back together. I don’t think that we’ll do another nine but I think we will get back together.”

He added: “That there’s an appetite for it — internally, from us. And when Greg has an idea that he feels is worthy then it sounds like most people would be game to get back together.”

The hit NBC sitcom, which aired from 2005 to 2013, focused on the lives of office employees at Dunder Mifflin paper company in Scranton, Pennsylvania. The Office starred Baumgartner, Steve Carell, John Krasinski, Jenna Fischer, Rainn Wilson, Angela Kinsey, B.J. Novak, Melora Hardin, Kate Flannery and more familiar faces.

Most Memorable TV Spinoffs Over the Years

There’s been a demand for a reboot or revival since The Office came to an end. Daniels found a way to expand the franchise by developing an original series that will follow the same mockumentary format while being set in the same universe.

According to the logline, the documentary crew “that immortalized Dunder Mifflin’s Scranton branch is in search of a new subject when they discover a dying historic Midwestern newspaper and the publisher trying to revive it with volunteer reporters.” The current rumored title for the Peacock series is The Paper but no official name has been announced yet.

Daniels previously has clarified that while the new installment is “set in the same universe” as the original, it isn’t considered a reboot or a revival.

“I don’t like to think of anything as a reboot. Because I feel like we ended that story beautifully. The characters had closure,” he told TheWrap in November 2023. “I would never want to redo that same show with a different cast, because I think we got the luckiest cast, the best cast ever, in TV, to do that show. So the notion of a reboot is not of interest.”

Every TV Spinoff to (Hopefully) Look Forward to in 2025

Just like devoted fans of The Office, Baumgartner is on the edge of his seat waiting for more information about the Peacock series. For now, however, Baumgartner’s focus has shifted to personal accomplishments, such as his participation in the Hilton Grand Vacations 2025 Tournament of Champions later this month.

“As a competitive person — and as someone who’s participated in sports all their life — it’s this unique experience for me over the last 15 to 20 years as I’ve been doing this. To actually be participating in a professional tournament where I am well aware that there is no chance for me to win,” he quipped. “Ultimately, I know why I’m there. It is to have a good time and to try to have the people who are there watching have a good time to compete. I take it seriously. And I hope that I hit a few good shots that the people watching are surprised about.”

Maybe it’s just me, but there’s something about the winter blues that makes me want to have a major skin glow-up. I mean if you think about it, winter is the best time to invest in skin-plumping body care so we can reap the results by the time swimsuit season rolls around. By investing in hydrating treatments while the weather is depressing and cold, we can feel confident about showing a little skin come spring because it will be hydrated, firm and glowing. It’s a no-brainer, really.

Whether you’re battling dry, sagging or wrinkly skin this winter, it’s time to invest in a rich body cream to get a head start on your winter glow-up. We found this luxurious body cream that has racked up over 4,000 fans on Amazon for ‘smoothing and tightening’ crepey skin in just a few uses. And considering we’re all wearing sweaters and long pants for the next several weeks, it’s the perfect time to stock up and start lathering it all over your body.

Packed with super hydrators like squalane, coconut oil and cocoa butter, this fast-absorbing cream offers up to 72 hours of hydration. It’s safe to apply all over your body — arms, legs, tummy — and works best when applied twice per day.

Anyone with sensitive skin will be delighted to know the cream is fragrance-free, making it safe to apply on your neck and face. Plus, it supports natural collagen production to make skin look (and feel) more firm, plump and hydrated. I don’t know about you, but I’ll take that over dry, uncomfortably itchy skin all winter.

6 Body Serums To Keep Your Skin Hydrated This Winter

Don’t take my word for it — here’s what more than 4,000 loyal fans have to say about the rich body cream.

“The product is rich, fragrance free (perfect), a high-level moisturizer and does an impressive job of smoothing and tightening skin to a surprising degree,” one five-star reviewer explains. “In addition, the jar contains a very generous portion for the cost, and only a small amount is needed.”

“Upon first application your skin improves a lot,” another happy shopper shares. “I’m skeptical that it will change it permanently over time. But I’m thrilled that I now can wear short sleeves without looking 10 years older. I avoided short sleeves for years and it was very difficult to find summer clothes that worked. Now, I use the product on my arms, and follow with a tinted sunscreen, and they look great. No other moisturizer compares for this purpose.”

Considering the cream can be applied all over your body (including the neck and face), this treatment is like five skincare products in one. That alone makes the price more than worth it! Your skin will thank you later for keeping it hydrated and smooth all winter long.

Khloé Kardashian and her ex-husband, Lamar Odom, will come face-to-face in an upcoming episode of The Kardashians.

“I honestly think timing is everything,” Khloé, 40, said in a confessional, which aired during a Friday, January 17, trailer for season 6 of the Hulu docuseries, before she asked sister Kim Kardashian and mom Kris Jenner who she recently saw in person.

Kim, 44, and Kris, 69, were in shock that Khloé was referring to Lamar, 45. (Khloé and Lamar were married from 2009 to 2013.)

“This is insane,” Kim quipped before Kris tearfully called the NBA alum “the love of [Khloé’s] life.”

In another scene, Lamar was spotted arriving at Khloé’s home carrying a bouquet of red roses.

“I don’t even know this person anymore,” the Good American founder added in a voiceover. “In this family, there has to be drama.”

She also appeared to get into a heated conversation with Lamar.

“It’s the truth,” Khloé proclaimed. “The truth hurts one time. A lie hurts several times.”

Khloé married Lamar in September 2009 after one month of dating, soon chronicling their romance on a Khloé & Lamar E! docuseries. The reality TV star filed for divorce four years later but postponed her court motion after Lamar was left comatose after overdosing at a legal brothel in Nevada. Khloé served as Lamar’s caretaker while he recovered. She refiled for divorce in May 2016, which was finalized seven months later.

Khloe K.: I Make Potential Suitors 'Uncomfortable' With Personal Life Stories

“The reason why I turned to the gym was actually through my divorce. I didn’t really know what to do,” Khloé recalled to InStyle in a 2023 profile. “Of course, in the beginning, you [have to] get over that hump of it being really hard and something so new for you. But I felt so accomplished. I’m sort of a control freak, but in life we can’t control everything. But the gym, what I put in it, I know I’m going to get out of it. And being a control freak — I’m proud of it — I love that I have that control.”

She later moved on with Tristan Thompson, whom she dated on and off between 2016 and 2021. They share daughter True, 6, and son Tatum, 2.

Khloé’s family life — and her milestone 40th birthday — will be among the story lines on The Kardashians season 6. The teaser also highlighted Kourtney Kardashian “stepping out of retirement,” sisterly fights and Kim balancing business endeavors and parenthood with a new love interest.

“I had the intention of staying single — I was fully lying to you guys,” Kim said in a confessional. “Me not dating and not wanting love and attention? I don’t think you know me!”

The Kardashians season 6 premieres Thursday, February 6, on Hulu.

Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles won Us over when they played brothers on Supernatural — and they have remained booked and busy since The CW show came to an end.

Padalecki and Ackles played the monster-hunting duo from 2005 to 2020. After appearing in over 300 episodes of the hit series, Padalecki exclusively told Us Weekly that he felt he would “never really say goodbye” to his character.

“We really have become a family,” he said at the time about the journey. “Over 15 years, we’ve cut the fat. We didn’t fire anybody but if they didn’t like being there, they move on. So the people that are there want to be there.”

Ackles felt the same way, which inspired him to expand the Supernatural universe. (The Winchesters series ran from 2022 to 2023 and focused on Dean (Ackles) and Sam’s (Padalecki) parents in the ’70s.)

‘Supernatural’ Cast: Where Are They Now?

“It’s a long journey,” Ackles teased during a TV Critics’ Association press tour panel that same year. “I don’t think it’s ever going to be over. It’s just going to go away for a while. I don’t know how long.”

Outside of Supernatural, Padalecki and Ackles have scored a plethora of opportunities — some of which even allowed them to cross paths again. Keep scrolling for an extensive breakdown of their ongoing list of TV projects:

‘Walker’ Universe

Padalecki initially remained at The CW after wrapping up Supernatural. He was cast as the lead on the Walker, Texas Ranger reboot from 2020 to 2024, where he also served as executive producer. After Walker inspired the Walker: Independence prequel, Padalecki had an unnamed cameo in one episode.

Ackles, meanwhile, joined Walker as a director, but also scored a cameo in the role of Miles Vyas.

‘Fire Country’ Franchise

Season 3 of CBS’ hit series Fire Country introduced Padalecki as Camden Casey in a three-episode arc meant to set up a potential spinoff. Fire Country: Surfside would follow Padalecki as a California firefighter dealing with the aftermath of his brother’s death in the field.

‘The Boys’

Ackles’ role as Soldier Boy on The Boys was a shocking departure for those of Us who loved him as Dean on Supernatural. The shakeup, however, paved the way for Ackles to score his own prequel series titled Vought Rising — and a guest spot on the Gen V spinoff.

Padalecki joined in on the fun with a yet-to-be-announced role in the fifth and final season. The opportunity reunites Padalecki with Ackles and creator Eric Kripke, who was part of Supernatural before coming onboard The Boys.

Unnamed Medical Drama

After working with showrunner Anna Fricke on Walker, Padalecki reunited with her on an untitled series for CBS about a headstrong country doctor practicing a unique style of improvisational medicine. The show is in development as part of Padalecki’s ongoing first-look deal.

‘Big Sky’

A guest role in season 2 led to Ackles joining the main cast of Big Sky as Beau Arlen alongside Reba McEntire.

‘The Winchesters’

Ackles found a way to return to his roots with The Winchesters, a Supernatural spinoff set in an alternate continuity. The actor narrated the show as his character Dean and served as an executive producer alongside wife Danneel Ackles.

‘Tracker’

Proving once again that Ackles knows what his fans want, he signed on to play Justin Harley‘s onscreen brother on Tracker. In addition to the Smallville reunion, the introduction to Ackles as Russell paved the way for some fun Easter eggs.

‘Countdown’

The upcoming Prime Video series stars Ackles as Mark, a LAPD officer who is recruited to join a secret task force of undercover agents from all branches of law enforcement to investigate a suspicious murder that takes place in broad daylight.

Cue the Reputation (Taylor’s Version) theories because Taylor Swift is looking “so gorgeous” in an all-black ensemble.

Swift, 35, stepped out in style on Friday, January 17, for dinner at New York City hotspot Nobu in a cropped black Area peacoat and a matching miniskirt from the brand, which she paired with color-coordinated Chloé knee-high boots and a Jimmy Choo handbag. The pop star also matched her manicure to the ensemble, painting her nails in a matte charcoal hue.

Swift accessorized her ‘fit — which eagle-eyed social media fans believe matched her OG Reputation color scheme to potentially hint at the next rerecording — with monogrammed Chanel earrings and her signature red lip.

For glam, Swift wore her hair down with side-swept bangs as the locks cascaded off one shoulder while she strutted down the NYC sidewalk.

Taylor Swift Brings Her Red Lip Classic to NYC Date With Travis Kelce

The 14-time Grammy winner was joined on Friday by her parents, Andrea and Scott, as well as her brother, Austin. The close-knit Swift family also dined with the singer’s friend Ashley Avignone.

Swift’s Big Apple outing took place one day before her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and the Kansas City Chiefs kick off the divisional playoff round. The reigning Super Bowl champs have a home game against the Houston Texans on Saturday, January 18, for a slot in the upcoming AFC conference championship. Earlier this week, Kelce, 35, teased that Swift would be in attendance.

“You know it, baby,” the tight end quipped on the Pat McAfee Show. “You know it’s playoff football, man. … I’m feeling fired up. I’m ‘feeling 22’ [like Swift’s song] all over again, baby. Let’s go!”

Swift and Kelce have dating since summer 2023, months before she started cheering him on at football games. (Swift even made it to the 2024 Super Bowl last February, dressed in bedazzled Area jeans, a matching corset and “87” jewelry in honor of Kelce’s jersey number.)

“Me and Taylor are happy and I couldn’t be happier to have that confidence and that comfort off the field and all the support I could ever ask for in the stadium,” Kelce gushed on the Wednesday, January 15, episode of the Stephen A. Smith Show. “She loves coming to Arrowhead [Stadium] and coming to the games and cheering for me, so I got all the support in the world to keep chasing these dreams.”

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you don’t have to hit the gym every day to achieve a lifted booty. The secret is finding comfortable bottoms with hidden features that seamlessly lift your bum like magic. My favorite type of pant for achieving a heart-shaped booty are leggings. Yes, you heard that right — so many leggings and flared yoga pants are specifically designed to enhance your curves. All you have to do is slip ’em on!

15 Booty-Lifting Jeans That Look High-End but Feel Totally Comfy

I’ve tested dozens of butt-lifting leggings from Amazon, but none of them achieve the results I want quite like the Sunzel Invisible Butt Scrunch Leggings. Bonus: These leggings are high-waisted and boast a thick, double-layered waistband for sucking in the tummy. I mean, what’s not to love?

Get the Sunzel Invisible Butt Scrunch Leggings for $29 at Amazon!

When shopping for butt-lifting leggings, some key features to look for are a V-shaped back seaming, an invisible butt scrunch and a high waist. I’m sure there are low-waisted leggings that can make your peach look fabulous, but low-waisted pants aren’t comfortable (so don’t even bother!). These Sunzel leggings check all the boxes and more. I seriously get so many compliments on the color and silhouette of these leggings!

Available in nearly two dozen colors and five sizes, there’s a fun hue for everyone, whether you want to show off in hot pink or prefer a more versatile hue like black. Plus, you can choose from four inseam lengths to achieve the perfect fit. Oh, and there’s side pockets!

“They are so soft, the periwinkle color is beautiful,” one happy shopper raves. “I use them for the gym and have bought several pairs. The high waist gives decent tummy control, without pressing down too much. The scrunch is very subtle, so it accentuates the glutes without being too in-your-face. Besides, it is so difficult to find affordable leggings with a scrunch, no front seam and pockets. These legging get the balance just right for me.”

Sometimes the ultimate confidence boost is buying a pair of butt-lifting leggings. At a price like this, it only makes sense to buy a few colors!

When it comes to filming sex scenes for TV shows and movies, actors have had a variety of good and bad experiences.

Intimacy coordinator Brooke M. Haney previously opened up to Us Weekly about how filming steamy scenes between actors goes down on set. Contrary to what some fans may think, Haney said that it isn’t “very common” for actors to get aroused while filming sex scenes.

“We’re at work, right? With the lights bearing down, microphones, a couple of cameras in your face, director, DP [director of photography] and other necessary crew watching on monitors, it’s just not that sexy,” she exclusively shared with Us in 2024.

However, “Sometimes bodies have physiological responses that are outside of our control,” she noted. “When that does happen, I tell the actor to do a few push-ups or some jumping jacks. That moves the blood to a different location and we’re all good.”
