Renegades – Born in the U.S.A., the podcast hosted by former President Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen has proven to be a treasure trove of anecdotes, stories, and wisdom from two of America’s best-loved icons. The unlikely pair proved yet again this week that they aren’t afraid of discussing difficult topics and telling tough stories when they talked about growing up with absent fathers or the impact of the toxic masculinity they learned in their teens on their adult lives....

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton may have a simple kind of life…but their route to marriage has been anything but. After waiting five whole years to get engaged, Shelton revealed the pair planned to move much quicker when it came to marriage. While appearing as a co-host on NBC News’ TODAY with Hoda & Jenna back in March, Shelton revealed that the wedding would “hopefully [happen] this summer… With Covid, it looks like it may be okay, but I don’t know....

Bradley Cooper deserves an award for not only keeping one but two, romances under the radar for quite some time before the public learned about them. Just this week, the news was revealed that he’s dating Hillary Clinton’s top aide, Huma Abedin, after being set up by Vogue editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour. Yet right before he started spending time with Abedin, he was romancing a former Glee star: Dianna Agron. The most intriguing part of this revelation is that there might have been some overlap in his dating life, according to Us Weekly....

As women, knowing that we are up against a ticking biological clock is an alarming reality. Additionally, there’s an unfortunate stigma that surrounds motherhood at a late age. Thankfully, this is starting to change. More and more women are becoming first-time mamas in their 40s. Cameron Diaz is one of them. The 48-year-old Charlie’s Angels actress became a new mom in December via surrogate to her beautiful baby girl Raddix. Diaz opened up on her choice to become a mom later in life in a new episode of Naomi Campbell’s YouTube series, No Filter....

Pope Francis ruffled more than a few feathers in early January when he spoke about people prioritizing having pets over children. Now, Chelsea Handler has a humorous rebuttal to the religious figure’s suggestion that she shared on her Instagram page. Posting an Instagram Reel, she smiled into the camera while adding text next to her face. “Me: I choose a life that is child-free and I feel fulfilled.” She then switched to an image of Pope Francis and noted how she felt about his statement with a zinger about his hypocrisy....

It’s the holiday season, which means we’ve been baking up a storm. Cookies, mostly, and also cakes and other sweet confections, but if we’re honest, we’re starting to feel a little bit of baking burnout. And as for the cookies, well, we’ve pretty much had our fill at this point (we’ve tried all of Giada De Laurentiis’ and Martha Stewart’s best cookie recipes), and we’re looking for alternatives....

Hilaria Baldwin is known to be an open book when it comes to her motherhood journey, and one topic in particular — surrogacy — is one she isn’t shying away from. (She and husband Alec Baldwin welcomed their sixth child, a daughter named María Lucía Victoria — aka Marilú — in February 2019 via surrogacy.) In a recent episode of Hilaria’s own Witches Anonymous podcast, which she hosts with Michelle Campbell Mason, they addressed the topic head on....

When I was growing up, eggplant parmesan was the only way I ever ate eggplant. In fact, it wasn’t until I was in college, newly vegetarian, that I even realized that it was a meatless meal staple. I had never loved eggplant. The problem with traditional eggplant parm is that the eggplant itself can get super mushy, soaking up lots of oil as it fries and then sogging up as it bakes in tomato sauce....

Janet Jackson just posted the sweetest message to her son Eissa — and she did it in the most protective way possible. In an Instagram post, the pop singer and mom of one wished her little boy a happy fourth birthday, but she did it with a just message — and no photo — to help keep him out of the public eye. A post shared by Janet Jackson (@janetjackson)...

Over the course of the past few months, we’ve kind of lost count of how many famous women Kanye West has been linked to. But his latest outing with Uncut Gems star Julia Fox seems to indicate that these two are definitely growing a lot closer. The rapper and actress were spotted out in NYC for a date night that included a Broadway show, dinner, and plenty of photos. In photos captured exclusively by People, West and Fox looked incredibly comfortable with one another....

While Katy Perry is known for her eclectic (and rather zany) ensembles, one of our all-time looks from her is when she goes retro.

The season finale for HBO’s And Just Like That series wrapped up a major storyline about grief and losing a spouse unexpectedly.

Queen Elizabeth II’s second-eldest son Prince Andrew was sued by Virginia Giuffre in the summer of 2021; she alleged that the Duke of York had sexually assaulted her at the age of 17 when she was being trafficked by late billionaire financier and pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and the royal has tried and failed to have her case thrown out. On Feb. 15, 2022, a new court filing reveals that Prince Andrew has agreed to reach an out-of-court settlement in this case, avoiding trial, and that he has agreed to pay an undisclosed sum to Giuffre’s choice of charity....
