Did one of Taylor Swift’s cats make its formal “New Heights” debut?

In the middle of Travis Kelce’s Wednesday, August 28, podcast episode, fans believe that they heard a subtle “meow” in the background. In the episode, Travis, 34, and brother Jason Kelce discussed their offseason experiences, with Jason, 36, marveling over traveling to Paris with wife Kylie Kelce to watch the 2024 Olympics.

In between their chat, it appears as if a cat was purring in the background. The Kelce brothers did not discuss the supposed noise during the episode, remaining focused on their conversation.

“Not the ‘MEOW’ in the background. Travis letting one of the cats have its podcast debut,” one fan pointed out via X, while another noted that the supposed cat sound occurs around the 27-minute timestamp.

“There’s a CAT meowing! Jason does not have a cat,” the social media user wrote.

Neither Jason nor Travis own cats — only dogs. (Kylie, 32, previously tried to persuade her husband to adopt a feline during a December 2023 episode of the podcast.) Travis’ girlfriend of one year, Swift, is, however, a proud cat owner.

The pop star has three cats: Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson and Benjamin Button. (Meredith and Olivia are Scottish Folds, while Benjamin is a Ragdoll.)

“I have cats. I’m obsessed with them,” Swift previously told TIME in April 2016. “They’re just a real joy to live with. … They’re very dignified. They’re independent. They’re very capable of dealing with their own life. I love my cats so much that when a role came up in a movie called Cats, I just thought, like, I gotta do this. Like, this is my calling in life to do this — for the ladies.”

Benjamin even joined Swift on the cover of TIME in December 2023 when she was named Person of the Year.

Neither Swift nor Travis have confirmed whether their pets have met, though Swifties speculated that the NFL star might have filmed previous podcast episodes at her home. During a May episode of “New Heights,” fans wondered if Travis was even petting a cat off-camera.

The couple, who started dating in summer 2023, spend as much time as possible together in between their respective work commitments. Swift recently returned to the United States from the international run of her Eras Tour. She and Travis reunited at her Watch Hill, Rhode Island mansion for a star-studded party with Jason, Kylie, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid.

Travis is currently in the middle of his NFL commitments as a tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs with his first regular season game scheduled for early next week and it is likely that Swift could attend. She previously went to many of the team’s home and away games last season, also forming friendships with the athletes and their families.

When Meghan Markle, Prince Harry Plan to Tell Kids About Their Royal Lineage https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-moms/news/when-meghan-markle-prince-harry-plan-to-tell-kids-about-royal-lineage/ https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-moms/news/when-meghan-markle-prince-harry-plan-to-tell-kids-about-royal-lineage/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 20:40:03 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3698989 When Meghan Markle Prince Harry Plan to Tell Prince Archie Princess Lilibet About Their Royal Lienage 310

Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet may be descended from literal kings and queens, but their parents Meghan Markle and Prince Harry want them to have normal lives — and are in no rush to tell them about their royal heritage.

“They’ll have those conversations in due time,” a family friend shared in the latest issue of Us Weekly, adding that they want Archie, 5, and Lilbet, 3, to be loved for who they are as individuals. “They’re so well-mannered. Archie is sweet and curious and playful, and Lili is vibrant and happy.” (The grandchildren of King Charles III, both kids are in the line of succession to the British throne: Archie is sixth, while his younger sister is seventh.)

The Duke, 39, and Duchess, 43, live with their little ones in Montecito, Calif., and the couple keep their kids out of the spotlight for a very important reason.

“I think every parent wants to share their kid with the world, but they just can’t,” they explained to Us. “[Prince] William’s kids, for example, have way more safety, even though they’re recognizable. And the same doesn’t apply to Meghan and Harry’s children. They know the world wants to see [them but] I would expect them to live smaller lives until that gets sorted, if it ever does.”

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Quotes About Daughter Lilibet

Despite their busy schedules with their Archewell foundation and their personal business ventures — including her American Riviera Orchard lifestyle brand and an upcoming Netflix show —, Meghan and Harry are very hands-on-parents.

“They take the kids to school, they pick them up, and they are very active and present with them throughout the day,” the friend added.

Meghan and Harry welcomed son Archie in May 2019 and daughter Lilibet in June 2021. In January 2020, the couple announced that they would be stepping down from their royal titles and ended up deciding to move to the U.S. to raise their children.

Four months ago, Meghan previously gushed over her two “chatty, sweet” children during a trip to Nigeria to speak about how she balances raising her kids and pursuing her career.

“[Bonnie Hammer] invited me to have breakfast, and I thought this was just the biggest deal in the world,” Meghan recounted a conversation she had with her mentor during a panel in May. “And I asked her that exact question. I said, ‘How do you find the balance?’ And she said, ‘You don’t, you’ll never find the balance.”

Everything Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Have Said About Archie

Meghan went on to explain how she figured out what that balance meant to her after getting married and having kids.

“What I think that means now is that balance will always change for you … What seems balanced 10 years ago is going to shift,” she shared. “And so being a mom has always been a dream of mine. And I’m so fortunate that we have two beautiful, healthy, very chatty, sweet children. I love being a mom.”

Weee so proud!! 📚📓.”

Cannon previously gushed about how smart his son is when Golden entered second grade at age 5.

“Yesterday was the first day of 2ND GRADE for MR. GOLDEN CANNON!! (And he’s only 5 years old!!!),” Cannon wrote via Instagram in August 2022. “Congratulations Champ!! I can’t take none of the credit though! He gets his genius from his Mamma! @missbbell.”

Three years later, Bell and Cannon expanded their family with daughter Powerful Queen. Bell gave birth to their third child, Rise Messiah, in September 2022.

The actor also shared late son Zen with Alyssa Scott, who died from cancer in December 2021 at 5 months old. In December 2022, they welcomed their daughter Halo Marie, 16 months.

Jerry O'Connell Calls Rebecca Romijn On-Air to Ask to Be in Fantasy League https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/jerry-oconnell-calls-rebecca-romijn-for-fantasy-football-permission/ https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/jerry-oconnell-calls-rebecca-romijn-for-fantasy-football-permission/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 20:25:05 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3699030 Jerry O Connell Is Just Like Us Calls Rebecca About Fantasy Football

Jerry O’Connell had to get special permission from his wife, Rebecca Romijn, to join another fantasy football league.

During the Wednesday, August 28, “Pardon My Take” episode, O’Connell, 50, called Romijn, 51, to inquire about being a part of the podcast hosts’ competition.

“They are part of a fantasy league and I would like to join,” O’Connell told Romijn over the phone. “It is going to cost 1/10 of repairing our driveway.”

Romijn let out a laugh at O’Connell’s suggestion. “Jer, you’ve never won in fantasy football,” she said, while O’Connell proudly noted that he previously earned second place.

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell's Relationship Timeline

“You get mad at the entire family. You get mad at everybody when you don’t win,” she said, to which he replied, “This could be a very victorious moment for all of us.”

O’Connell noted that he shares a joint account with Romijn, so he wanted to give her a heads-up if she were to see the charge. “We have a joint account so you’ll see if I venmo someone money,” he said.

“What do you say, can I take 10 percent to fix our driveway and give it to these guys?” he continued. Romijn paused on the other end of the line before declaring, “You can join the fantasy league but you need to do one thing. You got to win.”

The podcast cohosts erupted into cheers as O’Connell replied, “Alright, love you, babe. Thanks for coming on the show.”

Twin Time! Celebrity Parents Who Have Welcomed Multiples Over the Years

Two years after getting engaged, O’Connell and Romijn tied the knot in 2007. They welcomed twin daughters, Charlie and Dolly, the following year. In 2022, O’Connell opened up to Us Weekly about the beginning of their romance.

“The only reason I am with Rebecca Romijn is because when I met Rebecca when I was 30, literally, I was like Eminem in 8 Mile,” he exclusively told Us at the time. “I had one shot. That was it.”

O’Connell added that Romijn says he “sold” himself to her. “I’m still processing that one,” he quipped. “I did a song and dance. I had a routine.”

Romijn had a different take on O’Connell’s recollection of their origin story. “No, Jerry was utterly charming, as you can imagine,” she recalled to Us. “And hilarious, and of course I fell for that immediately.”

In 2019, O’Connell recalled the couple’s meet-cute at a Maxim Hot 100 party in Las Vegas. “Just to give a little more details, Rebecca was in the VIP section of the party, and I was not,” he said. “I saw you in the VIP section and you were newly single, and I was like, ‘I got to get some of that, right there.’ It was a pool party, so I took my shirt off. I did some pushups right there and got some oil. I was super flexing.”

Tristan Thompson Celebrates ‘Twinny’ Daughter True Starting 1st Grade https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-moms/news/tristan-thompson-celebrates-daughter-true-starting-1st-grade/ https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-moms/news/tristan-thompson-celebrates-daughter-true-starting-1st-grade/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 20:14:56 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3699046 Tristan Thompson Celebrates Twinny’ Daughter True Starting 1st Grade Time Flies

Tristan Thompson couldn’t be prouder of his and ex Khloé Kardashian’s daughter, True, as she starts elementary school.

“Twinny first day of 1st grade 🥹🥹,” Thompson, 33, captioned a series of Instagram photos on Tuesday, August 27.

The Cleveland Cavaliers player, who calls True, 6, his “twin” because of their striking resemblance, had a photo shoot with his baby girl before she went off to school. The duo posed for snaps in front of giant pastel crayons and a matching balloon arch.

“Time flies my wow!” Thompson continued. “I know Gigi’s looking down on you and she is sooo proud of you and how amazing you are and how you’re the best big sister. I love you Tutu 🤞🏾♥.”

Thompson was all smiles as he held on tight to True before she left for class. True wore her school uniform, a plaid skirt and white polo shirt, while hugging her dad.

Thompson and Kardashian’s son, Tatum, 2, also joined in on the fun. Tatum wore a paisley-printed navy shirt and shorts set with white sneakers. The NBA player was also dressed casual in black pants, a graphic T-shirt and a flannel overshirt.

The family moment appeared to happen at Kardashian’s home as she also posted photos with their two kids before True’s big day.

“First Grade!!! True I am so proud of you!!” Kardashian, 40, wrote via Instagram on Tuesday, posing in front of the same backdrop. “I know you’re going to have the most incredible year ahead of you! I couldn’t be happier for you my angel.”

The reality star teased, “I’m not OK, but I’ll pull it together by pick up time 🤍.”

Like Thompson, Kardashian dressed comfy in black leggings, a matching hoodie and Nike sneakers. She hugged her daughter as True help onto their cat and smiled for the cameras.

Thompson dated Kardashian on and off from 2016 to 2021. The former couple welcomed True in April 2018 and Tatum via surrogate in July 2022.

The pair split for good in 2021 after news broke that Thompson fathered son Theo, now 2, with Maralee Nichols while he and Kardashian were expecting their son. (Thompson is also the father of 7-year-old son Prince, whom he shares with ex Jordan Craig. He became the legal guardian of his 17-year-old brother, Amar, when their mom, Andrea Thompson, died in January 2023.)

Since calling it quits, Tristan and Kardashian have rebuilt their friendship and remained committed to coparenting.

“He’s the nicest guy and we get along so well now. We’re not meant to be together, but he was meant to be the father of these kids,” Kardashian said of Thompson during a May appearance on the “SHE MED” podcast. “And we do get along so well, and I’m really grateful for that because my parents [Kris Jenner and late Robert Kardashian Sr.] got along so well.”

Tristan gushed about his bond with Khloé in June when she celebrated turning 40. “You are the best mom. You are my best friend,” he wrote via his Instagram Story at the time. “And the most incredible human being I’ve ever met.”

Jeremy Jackson Recalls Beating out Leonardo DiCaprio for 'Baywatch' Role https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/jeremy-jackson-recalls-being-cast-in-baywatch-over-leonardo-dicaprio/ https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/jeremy-jackson-recalls-being-cast-in-baywatch-over-leonardo-dicaprio/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 19:59:37 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3699034 Jeremy Jackson Recalls Beating out Leonardo DiCaprio for Baywatch Role
Jeremy Jackson, Leonardo DiCaprio Michael Tullberg;Jon Kopaloff/WireImage/Getty Images(2)

Jeremy Jackson beat out several famous faces to land his role as Hobie Buchannon on the hit show Baywatch — including the one and only Leonardo DiCaprio.

“I didn’t actually even know [about that until] many years later,” Jackson, 43, exclusively told Us Weekly at the premiere of After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun on Monday, August 26. The actor noted that when he auditioned for the show, he, DiCaprio, Jonathan Brandis and more child stars were often competing for the same roles.

“There’s a lot of kid actors who are about the same age, who were about that same cute, sultry [style with a] little edge,” he explained. “It was always head-to-head. So, you know, it’s just the one I got. It’s the luck of the draw.”

Jackson took over the role of Hobie from Brandon Call after season 1 of Baywatch in 1989 and remained in the role through 1999. (Baywatch ended its run after 11 seasons in 2001.)

Original ‘Baywatch’ Cast: Where Are They Now?

“I was born to entertain, man. From 1 year old, you know, I was doing impersonations, dancing and singing. It’s all I ever wanted to do,” Jackson said of his early career days, noting that acting never felt like a “job” to him. “Baywatch hit it big, and then I went out and I was doing music touring and released an album. So, it was like a dream come true for me.

Jackson’s time on Baywatch cemented him as the show’s second longest-running cast member, next to his onscreen father, David Hasselhoff.

“I was a 10-year-old fatherless, hyperactive child, so I probably felt like a tick for David,” Jackson told Us of working with Hasselhoff, who played the iconic lifeguard Mitch Buchannon. “You know, he had beautiful chicks clamoring after him, and he’s signing autographs, and he’s the big man on campus, and I’m like, tugging on his coattails, like, ‘Hey, do you want to play? Do you want to surf? Can I eat lunch in your trailer?’ [He was probably like] ‘Gosh, this kid. I’m like a 30-year-old guy trying to be a superstar,’ so I probably drove him nuts.”

Despite their early differences, Jackson said Hasselhoff, 72, became “like a big brother to me” over time. “[There were] lots of practical jokes, lots of play, lots of fun. But he really reached out, extended a hand, you know, going over to his house and hanging out with him and stuff like that. And now later, it’s beautiful,” he shared. “We’re both sober for some years, and we exchange daily readings and supportive text messages and stuff like that.”

Jackson is one of many cast members opening up about the highs and lows of their Baywatch experience in the new Hulu docuseries After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun.

Blast From the Past! Jason Momoa, More Stars You Forgot Were on 'Baywatch'

“Believe it or not, it was a huge group effort to do this,” he told Us of the docuseries, in which he discusses his struggles with addiction. “I mean, over five years, we went through COVID. We went through people getting cancer. I almost killed myself getting in shape five years ago for the shoot that never even happened. As soon as we just kind of went with the flow, it fell together. It fell together in a way that was better than really anybody could have planned.”

He added: “I mean, from all the at-home footage that we collected. Thanks to the time we actually had, it became a real project piece, thanks to that time.”

After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun is currently streaming on Hulu.

Heidi Klum's Denim Dress Is a Fall Fashion Slay — Recreate the Look for $37 https://www.usmagazine.com/stylish/news/heidi-klum-denim-dress-lookalike/ https://www.usmagazine.com/stylish/news/heidi-klum-denim-dress-lookalike/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 19:59:11 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3699043 Us Weekly has affiliate partnerships so we may receive compensation for some links to products and services.

Heidi Klum just showed Us how to nail transitional summer-to-fall fashion!

The supermodel-turned-television host was just spotted heading to the America’s Got Talent set in Los Angeles wearing transitional fashion perfection. She wore an all-denim ensemble, with a bodycon denim dress and matching quilted bag. The style inspired Us because it’s perfect for wearing by itself on warm days and with a jacket in the fall. So, we found a $37 lookalike dress on Amazon to recreate her style — and shoppers say it makes them look like “a million bucks!”

The Utcoco Midi Denim Dress gives us the same sexy, bodycon denim style as Klum’s but at an affordable price point. Like Klum’s, the dress is sleeveless and is of a midi length. It also, however, has a few variations from the model’s, such as its lighter wash, scoop neckline and zip-up bodice feature. Soft against the skin, the dress is made of a cotton, decron and spandex fabric blend, which makes it slightly stretchy too.

Shoppers seem to think it makes a great season-shifting dress as well, seeing that over 400 were bought within the last month. It also has dozens of five-star ratings, with this shopper saying it “looks like it cost four times what it did.”

“It fits like a glove, [is] super sexy and quite fitted but looks wonderful on,” they said. “[It’s] very comfortable and [is] great quality. [I] love the color of the denim.”

It comes in a light wash, which is closest to what Klum wore, but also a black wash, which would be great for a going-out dress. You can make it a statement all-denim look like Klum did, pairing it with a matching bag and shoes. Or you can tone it down with different colors and textures, such as some nude heels and a cropped jacket.

Winona Ryder and Jenna Ortega are twinning and winning.

Ryder, 52, and Ortega, 21, coordinated their outfits while slaying at the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice premiere during the Venice International Film Festival in Italy on Wednesday, August 28. For the event, Ryder, who plays Ortega’s onscreen mom in the movie, Lydia Deetz, rocked a Chanel haute couture cropped black blazer, a matching vest and a pleated white dress shirt. She teamed her top with a black silky bow tie and a pleated floor-length skirt.

For glam, she donned black eyeliner, long lashes, filled-in eyebrows and pale pink lips. Her brunette hair was styled in an updo with her bangs cascading over her forehead.

Ortega, who plays Astrid Deetz in the horror/comedy, opted for a cherry red custom Christian Dior getup that included a ruffled top equipped with nude straps, an open back and V-neck and a pleated tulle floor-length skirt. She elevated the look with silver jewelry.

Ortega’s makeup featured hot pink eyeshadow, rosy cheeks and a bold red lip. Her brunette locks were twisted into a messy — but chic — updo.

Eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice that Ortega’s look was reminiscent of the red gown that Lydia wore during her wedding to Beetlejuice in the original 1988 movie. (In the film, Beetlejuice tricked Lydia into marrying him so he would be able to roam free in the living world.)

Her dress featured a similar style ruffled top and a massive A-line skirt. At the time, Ryder’s hair was styled in spikey bangs. She completed her get-up with a red veil and burgundy eyeshadow.

This isn’t the first of Lydia’s outfits that Ortega has recreated during the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice press tour. Earlier this month, she rocked a Thom Browne ensemble nearly identical to one of Ryder’s costumes in Beetlejuice.

Jason Kelce Asks When He Should Start Exposing Kids to Adam Sandler Movies https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-moms/news/jason-kelce-asks-when-to-expose-daughters-to-adam-sandler-movies/ https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-moms/news/jason-kelce-asks-when-to-expose-daughters-to-adam-sandler-movies/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 19:30:18 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3698975 Jason Kelce Asks Adam Sandler When He Should Start Exposing Daughters to The Sandmans Movies

Jason Kelce can’t wait to introduce his three daughters to Adam Sandler’s movies, a fact that he couldn’t resist telling the actor.

Jason, 36, and brother Travis Kelce interviewed Sandler, 57, on the Wednesday, August 28, episode of their joint “New Heights” podcast, in which Jason couldn’t resist asking for parenting tips from Sandler. (Sandler and wife Jackie, 49, share daughters Sadie, 18, and Sunny, 15.)

“I’m a girl dad and] my oldest is 4, so I got a ways to go, [but] do you have any advice and when should I — they’ve seen some of your stuff — really start exposing them to the Sandman?” Jason asked.

Jason shares daughters Wyatt, 4, Ellie, 3, and Bennett, 18 months, with wife Kylie Kelce.

Everything Jason Kelce and Wife Kylie Have Said About Parenting 3 Kids

Sandler pointed out that there’s “no rush” to letting the Kelce kids watch certain films.

“At that age, there’s no rush to get to me,” Sandler quipped. “I got some animated movies that I feel comfortable telling somebody, ‘Hey, maybe you can watch Hotel Transylvania or Leo or something like that?’ You’ll feel alright there.”

However, sometimes 3-year-olds “come up to” the actor and quote lines from 1995’s Billy Madison.

“They do say, ‘Are you Billy Madison?’ I say yes and they say, ‘Why do you not look like him anymore?’” Sandler recalled. “I go, ‘Well, Billy Madison’s been f–king eating. He’s a little hungry.’”

Sandler further noted that Kelce’s daughters will eventually take an interest in the films, though Sunny and Sadie have been hesitant to see them all.

“My own kids, I don’t throw my stuff at them too quick,” he explained. “It just happens. They haven’t seen a few of the filthy ones yet, and let’s hope that they don’t need to see that.”

Sandler and his daughters, who recently shared the screen in 2023’s You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah, have watched other movies together. In fact, Sandler took Sunny and Sadie to the October 2023 premiere of Travis’ girlfriend Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour documentary in Los Angeles.

“What a girl,” Sandler gushed. “She means so much to our house since the kids [were younger]. I think I was shooting Grown Ups or That’s My Boy in Massachusetts and we were listening to every song. It was one of the first times that you listen to every song on the record start to finish. F–king Taylor in our house, [we listened to] every tune and they knew every word. I loved listening to her in the car and I love what she had to say, every message [and] every melody.”

Jason is also a fan of Swift’s, recently attending two of her Eras Tour shows in London during her June run at Wembley Stadium. On an earlier episode of “New Heights,” Jason even admitted that he couldn’t stop crying when she gifted her “22” hat to a young fan in the audience.

Bobby Berk Can't 'Stand’ All-White Kitchens: ‘Feels Like an Operating Room’ https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/bobby-berk-cannot-stand-all-white-kitchens-operating-room-vibes/ https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/bobby-berk-cannot-stand-all-white-kitchens-operating-room-vibes/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 19:25:52 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3698934 Bobby Berk has a message for builders and flippers everywhere: “Stop doing all white kitchens!”

The Queer Eye alum, 43, exclusively told Us Weekly that he “cannot stand all white kitchens.” Berk, who is partnering with Amazon Devices to introduce SIY, a.k.a. “Smartify It Yourself,” house techniques, dished on why that design style drives him “nuts.”

Berk explained that he gets “so frustrated” when builders and flippers especially in Los Angeles decide to keep everything so monochrome and clinical. (He also confessed that all white bathrooms are not his favorite.)

“They’re like, ‘Well, we just wanna do all white because we want it to appeal to everybody.’ But I’m like, ‘It doesn’t appeal to anybody anymore,’” Berk vented. “Stop doing it. Put a little personality in there.”

Bobby Berk Admits He Cannot Stand All White Kitchens It Feels Like an Operating Room
Amazon

The interior designer noted, “You don’t have to go crazy with color.” Berk suggested adding earth tones on the cabinets or as a “back splash the countertop” for a simple upgrade.

If you keep an all-white space, Berk confessed, “You walk in and it doesn’t feel like a kitchen. It feels like an operating room.” He added, “I hope people read this and stop doing it.”

Although Berk has strong opinions on all white décor, he told Us that he’s “not a big fan of trends” seasonal or otherwise.

HGTV’s Biggest Breakout Stars: Chip and Joanna Gaines and More

He said people should do what “makes them happy in their home and not necessarily worry about what I tell them should make them happy.”

That being said, Berk told Us he is a fan of cleaning — but not in the spring as is tradition. “One of the trends that I actually would love to get started, it’s fall cleaning instead of spring cleaning.”

Berk pointed out that spring cleaning can be problematic because “it rains” when you empty out your garage to organize. “Fall [equals] less rain. And most people are already digging in their garages starting in like October for their Halloween decor, and then in November for their Thanksgiving décor,” he explained. “So you’re already in your garage, you’re already digging through things.”

The reality star added, “I think the fall is actually the best time of year to clean. I want to get people to stop doing that spring cleaning thing and focus on fall cleaning.”

As Berk heads into his favorite cleaning season, he has learned to lean into technology for assistance in his daily tasks. Through his partnership with Amazon Devices to promote SIY — which is a spin on the popular DIY trend — Berk has upgraded his home to become a smart house with Alexa and other Amazon products.

What's Going on With the Cast of 'Queer Eye'? Us Breaks It Down

Whether it is utilizing Amazon’s smart plug, or smart coffee maker in the kitchen, or using an Echo Show 15 to watch the backyard from his living room, Berk is happily “smartify-ing” his home.

“In the morning I have a smart plug that works with Alexa that my coffee maker’s plugged into. When I wake up, I say, ‘Alexa, rise and design,’ and Alexa automatically turns on my coffee maker and starts brew[ing],” Berk told Us. “And then also automatically turns the lights in the kitchen onto an energizing hue.”

As a “big SIY fan” himself, Berk said Amazon’s products have enhanced his day to day. “I’m always looking for ways to make my life easier and more automated,” he shared. “And luckily, like literally everything in your house can be, can be smartify now.”

Berk added: “It was a natural perfect partnership because not only do I use Alexa — not just in my house, but in my car — but I use the smart bulbs. I use it with my music. I use my ring cameras, my Blink cameras. … It was a match made in heaven.”

13 Transitional Weather Amazon Sweaters That Have Endless Five-Star Reviews https://www.usmagazine.com/shop-with-us/news/13-transitional-sweaters-five-stars/ https://www.usmagazine.com/shop-with-us/news/13-transitional-sweaters-five-stars/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 19:23:53 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3698461 While we’re sad a summer of barbecues, beach days, tan lines and flip flops is ending, we’re really excited for the movie nights, pumpkin pies and haunted hayrides to come! The slew of 90-degree days lately has delayed the inevitable shift, but we all know the shift is coming . . . especially those of Us in the Midwest!

17 Slimming Loose Tops for Well Under $30 to Look Southampton Rich

Fall is one of the best times of year for a lot of reasons, one being fashion. Clothes are looser, outfits are comfier and colors are warmer, not to mention sweaters are added to the fashion equation. While it won’t be time for thick and heavy sweaters for a while, we’re approaching light sweater territory. Hooray!

Another fall win is layering. Layering with light sweaters and cardigans is not only functional, but ultra-fashionable, too! There are endless sweaters on Amazon, however, which is a blessing and a curse. We love options, but that many options? Talk about overwhelming!

To make things easier, we sorted by only the highest-rated transitional weather sweaters, many of which have thousands of fans on Amazon. These are tried-and-true pieces reviewers call their favorites, so let’s jump in!

1. Total trendsetter: The dramatic exposed seams make this top a showstopper. You’ll look like a model while you grocery shop, walk or have brunch — was $50, now just $32!

2. Lightweight crochet: There are a whole bunch of colors to choose from, but we adore the rich mom flair of this cloud gray hue — just $33!

3. Waffle knit: This top may be simple, but it’s anything but boring. See it as a blank canvas for all your favorite accessories — was $50, now just $30!

4. Cozy connoisseur: Balloon sleeves are just the beginning when it comes to our favorite things about this classy crewneck sweater. Plus, it’s over half off — was $60, now just $29!

5. One of a kind: Have you ever seen a neckline quite like this one? It’s a trendy cross between a v-neck and a scoop neck — just $29!

6. Corporate gal: Whether you work in an office or whether your home is your office, this top will make you feel profesh — was $26, now just $22!

7. Wrap top: We’re loving the way this top hides lumps and bumps around the midsection. It’s a lifesaver on days when you’re bloated — was $40, now just $36!

8. Ultra-versatile: This top can be dressed up or down with a quick change of pants, shoes and accessories. Ribbed material lengthens the torso, too — was $30, now just $27!

9. New favorite: It’s hard to choose favorites, but this oversized crewneck pullover has to be one of them. A mock neck keeps it casual — just $40!

10. Solid choice: Nearly 6,000 people give this go-with-everything sweater five stars. If you’re on the fence, we’d say make the leap  — was $55, now just $30!

11. Super light: You definitely won’t sweat in this knit long-sleeve top! Acrylic and polyamide keep it breathable — just $33!

12. Everyday outfit: It doesn’t matter what you pair this striped v-neck sweater with. You’ll totally rock it, especially with booties — was $47, now just $35!

13. French tuck: We’re not saying you have to half tuck the front of this sweater, but you’ll be the star of the fashion show if you do — was $30, now just $22!

Lindsay Arnold Will Not Be on 'Dancing With the Stars' Season 33 https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/lindsay-arnold-will-not-be-on-dancing-with-the-stars-season-33/ https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/lindsay-arnold-will-not-be-on-dancing-with-the-stars-season-33/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 19:08:44 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3699004 Lindsay Arnold Reveals She Won t Be on Season 33 of Dancing With the Stars But Teases Possible Comeback Never Say Never 307
Lindsay Arnold. ABC/Craig Sjodin

Lindsay Arnold is shedding light on her future within the Dancing With the Stars franchise.

Arnold, 30, revealed in a recent TikTok video that she won’t be paired up with a celebrity when the show returns for its 33rd season this fall. The ballroom pro said her potential return to DWTS is the topic fans ask about the most, especially when a new season is on the horizon.

“As many of you know, I was on Dancing With the Stars for close to 10 years,” she began. “I stepped away from the show two seasons ago, and when I stepped away, I wasn’t like, ‘I’m done forever.’ It was just like, ‘This is what works for my life and we’ll just take it one season at a time.'”

Arnold acknowledged that she “never said” she wouldn’t go back for another season, so she understands why fans are so curious. She further noted that the addition of her sister Rylee Arnold as a pro during season 32 puts even more of a spotlight on her own decision to return.

Every 'Dancing With the Stars' Pro Through the Years: Where Are They Now?

“That question — ‘Are you going back to Dancing With the Stars?’ — is so much more complex than just, like, me deciding whether or not I wanna do it,” she explained while breaking down the “logistics” of casting. “I feel like some of you might know this, but some of you might not, that when it comes to the pros on Dancing With the Stars, you are never, ever guaranteed to be on the show. Ever.”

Lindsay said that “every single season” she competed on the show, she “had to wait” to hear about whether she’d be back in the ballroom. “Even though I was under contract, the contract doesn’t guarantee you a job every season,” she continued. “But you do need to be available to do it when you’re under contract and you can’t do other shows.”

While pros who’ve been around longer might feel “more confident” about being asked back, their futures are still up in the air. “There have been many times on the show where a very long standing pro who’s been on for a long time doesn’t get picked up … so you really, like, never know,” she said.

Had she wanted to be involved in season 33, Lindsay explained that she would’ve had to express interest to the producers before the “waiting game” really began. “It’s not as simple as just me being like, ‘I wanna be on the show!'” she added.

Living outside of Los Angeles also adds to the decision. “It’s not like I can start making preparations to move … because everything is very last-minute,” said Lindsay, who lives in Utah with her husband and two daughters.

Every 'Dancing With the Stars' Pro Who Has Left and Why

Taking all that into consideration, Lindsay told her followers that she did not end up expressing interest in returning for season 33. “No conversations have really gone on,” she added. “It’s not really something that’s been in the cards for me at this time in my life.”

After apologizing for possibly letting down some fans who hoped to see her back on their TVs, Lindsay did hint at potentially hitting the ballroom floor again someday. “Never say never,” she said. “But I will say, it’s been so fun to be able to watch and support my sister Rylee. It feels like this is just so meant to be … I just love the way things are going.”

Lindsay made her DWTS debut during season 16 in 2013. She won a mirrorball trophy with her season 25 partner, Jordan Fisher, in 2017 and last competed with Bachelor alum Matt James on season 30 in 2021.

Season 33 of Dancing With the Stars — which will feature Olympian Stephen Nedoroscik — premieres on ABC and Disney+ September 17.

Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin Took 'Space Apart' That 'Did Them Good' https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/dakota-johnson-and-chris-martins-space-apart-was-good-for-them/ https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/dakota-johnson-and-chris-martins-space-apart-was-good-for-them/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 18:58:22 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3698937 Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin’s relationship is going strong after spending some time apart, a source tells Us.

“Chris and Dakota did break up [earlier this year] just before she went on her press tour for Madame Web,” a source exclusively reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly, noting that the period in early 2024 was “a really difficult time” for Johnson, 34. “But the space apart did them good, and when Dakota got back, they got back together.”

Johnson and Martin, 47, started dating in 2017 after meeting through a friend. In March, a second source exclusively told Us that the duo had “been engaged for a while” but were “not the type to make some huge public announcement” about it. The insider added that the actress and the Coldplay frontman were “not in a huge rush to get married and don’t have a final wedding date set just yet.”

Johnson sparked breakup rumors earlier this month after she was seen without her engagement ring while Martin toured with his band overseas. However, Johnson’s rep told Us on August 16th that the split speculation is “not true” and that the pair are “happily together.”

Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson's Relationship Timeline

Martin was previously married to Gwyneth Paltrow from 2003 to 2016, and shares daughter Apple, 20, and son Moses, 18, with her. Johnson said during a March interview with Bustle that she “love[s]” Martin and Paltrow’s kids “with all my heart” and “like my life depends on it.”

Paltrow, who has since moved on with husband Brad Falchuk, has welcomed Johnson into the blended family. In April, a source told Us that there was “some tension” between the two women when Johnson and Martin first started dating, but that went away with time.

“It took quite some time, but eventually, Gwyneth saw how amazing Dakota treated her kids,” the insider shared. “Seeing her love them with her whole heart really changed the way Gwyneth felt.”

Paltrow gushed about Johnson when asked about their relationship during an October 2023 Instagram Q&A.

“We’re actually very good friends. I love her so much,” she said. “She’s an adorable, wonderful person.”

Gwyneth Paltrow Says She 'Would Do Anything For' Ex Chris Martin

Martin is grateful for the peaceful dynamic between Johnson and his ex-wife. After news broke in March of his and Johnson’s engagement, a source told Us that “one of the most important things to Chris is how beautifully Dakota fits into the lives of him and his children.”

The insider added that Martin and Johnson plan to invite Apple, Moses and Paltrow to the wedding.

“They absolutely plan on having Apple and Moses there, and they wouldn’t feel complete without inviting Gwyneth too,” the insider said. “Dakota and Gwyneth have grown very close over the years and they consider themselves family at this point.”

Danielle Collins Told the U.S. Open She Didn't Want Retirement Ceremony https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/danielle-collins-told-u-s-open-she-didnt-want-retirement-ceremony/ https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/danielle-collins-told-u-s-open-she-didnt-want-retirement-ceremony/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 18:57:53 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3698992 Danielle Collins Explains What Went Wrong After Refusing Post-Match Ceremony

Danielle Collins is not interested in a farewell tour. 

The American tennis star, 30, lost in the first round of the U.S. Open on Tuesday, August 27, her final major singles appearance after announcing her retirement plans in January.

To mark the occasion, tournament director Stacey Allaster was courtside following the match with a bouquet of roses to give to Collins, meant to commemorate her final time competing in New York.

However, Collins didn’t even break her stride in leaving the court, failing to acknowledge either Allaster or the flowers. In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly shortly after the match, Collins explained why.

“It’s really important to note this,” said Collins, who spoke to Us via her partnership with sunscreen brand WearSPF. “I requested before the tournament started that I not have a ceremony. I requested that multiple times. My coach requested that in writing. So I was a little bit caught off guard when that was the tact that was taken afterwards, because I specifically asked to not have that.”

She added, “I appreciate the thoughtfulness around wanting to do it. I think it all comes from a good place.”

However, Collins further insisted that the desire to shun the fanfare and attention that typically comes from a high-profile retirement is how she’s approached her entire career. 

“I think a lot of that has stemmed from feeling bad for others when they don’t get to have a similar experience,” Collins explained. “For a long time, I felt like when I had success, a lot of people weren’t always happy for me. In the beginning of my career, I was villainized a lot for my on-court demeanor and being a fiery personality. I got a lot of scrutiny because of that.”

Collins continued, “When I would receive that type of scrutiny or criticism, I would often feel really bad for the person writing it and feel guilty thinking, ‘Oh, wow, I hope I didn’t cause this person pain. I hope I didn’t trigger someone’s feelings and emotions.’ Because I know how that can feel.”

The four-time WTA champion and 2022 Australian Open finalist candidly admitted she’s often felt shame for being lauded for her ability on the tennis court, which she connected back to her childhood.

“Look, I come from a family where me and my brother were the first ones to go to college,” Collins said. “I grew up in a family that did not come from financial opportunity. My parents have been incredibly supportive and encouraging of me. But at the same time, sometimes I can also feel guilty or bad about my success. Because I know that not everybody has gotten to live the life that I had.”

With her time in the tennis sun fading — she will officially retire at the end of the 2024 season — Collins is continuing to preach the benefits of protection from its rays. 

“I have a compartment in my car with sunscreen, I have it in my bag, I have it literally everywhere I go,” she said. “I am constantly reapplying, especially on my face. It’s honestly the biggest part of my skincare routine.”

In particular, WearSPF’s mineral-based formula is one that’s meant to stand up to the conditions of being a professional tennis player. 

“I have tried every product out there over the years, and the most difficult thing you face when you’re playing a sport when you’re sweating a lot is getting it to stay on,” Collins explained. “This sunscreen just melts into my skin. It’s why this partnership has been so cool and organic. Because of how crazy I am about my sunscreen.”

A Complete History of the Lawrence Brothers' Messy Love Lives https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/joey-matthew-and-andrew-lawrences-love-lives-a-history/ https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/joey-matthew-and-andrew-lawrences-love-lives-a-history/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 18:51:35 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3693563 A Complete History of Joey Matthew and Andrew Lawrence s Love Lives Through the Years 064

The Lawrence brothers — Joey, Matthew and Andrew, respectively — have been entertainment staples since their days headlining the likes of Blossom and Brotherly Love.

As the siblings grew up in the spotlight, their respective love lives also made numerous headlines through the years.

“Look, it’s all about just trying to be happy,” Joey exclusively told Us Weekly in March 2024. “You got to be with the right person. … I’ve been married a billion times and I don’t know, I’m just a hopeless romantic.”

Joey was married to Chandie Yawn-Nelson from 2005 to 2020, during which they welcomed daughters Charleston and Liberty. Less than two years after they split, Joey moved on with Samantha Cope. Joey and Cope wed in 2022, two years before she filed for divorce.

“You want to make it work so bad, but you just got to be happy. You have to find that right balance,” Joey told Us that March. “I feel like you feel sad when something doesn’t work, but you know that you got to be happy … and life is short. We’re so blessed to be able to just wake up every day. So many people just don’t even wake up. Every day I wake up, I’m like, ‘Thank you, Lord, that I’m awake and I get to just live this life today.’”

At the time, Joey gushed to Us that he hopes his two younger brothers are equally happy and praised that it’s “really cool” to see Matthew find such love with TLC singer Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas. The Boy Meets World alum started dating Chilli in 2023 following his messy divorce from Cheryl Burke.

Keep scrolling to revisit the Lawrence brothers’ respective dating and marriage histories:

The Melissa & Joey alum was linked to Kellie Martin, Keri Russell, Jennifer Love Hewitt and Katherine Heigl during his early years in the spotlight. By 2002, he married Michelle Vella before the couple called it quits three years later. Joey moved on with Yawn Nelson and they were together for 15 years, during which they filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2017. To help make ends meet, Joey and Yawn-Nelson even sold their clothes to Buffalo Exchange for a $4,325 profit. The case was settled in 2018 when the pair settled their debts.

Since their divorce, which was finalized in February 2022, they tried to put aside any bad blood for the sake of coparenting their daughters.

“At the end of the day, you always take the high road,” Joey told Us in August 2021. “There’s no excuse for being anything but kind. [Our relationship] didn’t work out on a personal level, but we still share two amazing people. You’ve got to put them first and set an example.”

Us broke the news in August 2021 that Joey had proposed to Cope, whom he met on the set of a Lifetime movie directed by Andy, and they wed the next year. The then-couple welcomed daughter Dylan in 2023, one year before Cope filed for divorce and requested sole physical custody of their only child together. Cope further stated that she would approve Dylan staying with Joey for no more than twice a week after the toddler turned 3. Joey, for his part, has not responded to Cope’s petition.

One day after news broke that Cope filed for divorce in August 2024, TMZ obtained court documents accusing Joey of having an affair with Socked in for Christmas costar Melina Alves. Per the docs, Alves’ estranged husband, Edward Rider, included the claims in his divorce petition. Alves later denied ever having a “sexual relationship” with Joey, who has yet to address the accusations. Us reached out for comment.

Matthew briefly dated his BMW costar Danielle Fishel before moving on with Heidi Muller, getting engaged in 2004. The pair split two years later before Matthew connected with Burke in 2007. He and Burke dated on and off, ultimately getting married in 2019. Matthew and the Dancing With the Stars alum split three years later.

“That’s what I yearned for in my marriage … is two people saying, ‘I’m not perfect, but we both want the same thing — which is let’s work this out together and we will do what we need to do to hold ourselves accountable and stop blaming,'” Burke said on Red Table Talk in November 2022. “Because there is no good that comes from it. But there’s hope.”

Matthew and Burke’s divorce proceedings dragged on after he challenged her right to sole custody of French bulldog Ysabella, whom the actor initially adopted as a present for his then-wife. A judge eventually ruled in Burke’s favor. After their divorce, Matthew tried using the Raya dating app to find love. On the app, he briefly chatted with Rumer Willis.

Matthew has since moved on with singer Chilli.

While Andrew told Entertainment Tonight in March 2023 that he is “single at the moment,” he noted that he wasn’t “closed off” and was hoping to find “someone special.”

In August 2024, People reported that Andrew has seemingly found love with girlfriend Brittany McGowan, who accompanied him on his family’s summer vacation. .

Kaitlyn Bristowe Staged a Fake Funeral for Jason Tartick Relationship https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/kaitlyn-bristowe-staged-a-fake-funeral-for-jason-tartick-relationship/ https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/kaitlyn-bristowe-staged-a-fake-funeral-for-jason-tartick-relationship/#respond Wed, 28 Aug 2024 18:43:26 +0000 https://www.usmagazine.com/?p=3698945 Kaitlyn Bristowe Staged a Fake Burial When Last Relationship Ended

Kaitlyn Bristowe is not afraid to admit she staged a fake funeral and burial as a way to move on from her last relationship.

The former Bachelorette explained on the Tuesday, August 27, episode of her podcast, “Off the Vine With Kaitlyn Bristowe” how it was a therapeutic way for her to make peace with her new reality.

“A little funeral service, like, a fake burial,” said Bristowe, 39. “I didn’t bury anything, it was all mental…It was more of a visual practice, and it is to say your goodbyes and make a little peace with it.”

“It shifts something in the old brain,” she added. “I mean, was I like, alright? No, but it really does do something in your brain.”

Kaitlyn Bristowe’s Dating History: Bachelor Romances, Engagements and More

Bristowe did not mention her ex by name. She and Jason Tartick of The Bachelorette were engaged from 2021 to 2023 before calling it off last summer.

“Continuing our friendship is incredibly important to both of us,” they said in a statement at the time. “We feel grateful to be ending our engagement with love and respect for each other. It’s heartbreaking and sad to say goodbye, but our care and admiration for one another will never die.”

Since then, Bristowe has been linked to Zac Clark, the ex-fiancé of her former Bachelorette cohost, Tayshia Adams. The two were first spotted together on New Year’s Eve 2023 and have been seen enjoying each other’s company periodically since.

Bristowe confirmed in July that she was dating someone new but did not confirm his identity. Speculation hit a boiling point on August 25 when Bristowe appeared on the “U, Up?” podcast and described reaching out to a woman from the Bachelor franchise to see if it would be okay for her to date her ex. She did not mention Adams or Clark by name.

“I [wrote], ‘Hey, so-and-so DM’ed me and we’ve been chatting. I know you’re really happy in a relationship, so I don’t know [if] this would bother you or not,’” she explained. “She called and was very upset. She said, ‘I always knew you were a bad person and you’ve confirmed it. Your true colors are showing.’ Then, I hung up and [thought], ‘Now, I just want to send her a picture of me sucking his d–k.’”

Adams has been dating Summer House’s Luke Gulbranson since 2023.

Bristowe’s apparent relationship with Clark comes after she initially said that she was done dating members of Bachelor Nation. She explained on the “U, Up?” podcast why she changed her mind.

“I wonder if other people have that in, like, the workplace,” she said. “Like, ‘I don’t want to date another lawyer if I’m a lawyer.’ It’s one of those things where I say that, but then I see all the hot pieces of ass that come out of the Bachelor franchise. And I’m like, ‘OK.’”
