One of the most highly-anticipated movies of 2023 just came one step closer to fruition. Barbie, starring Margot Robbie as the titular Mattel doll, has come to life, along with Ryan Gosling as Ken, in the Greta Gerwig-directed film that has the internet in a frenzy since those rollerblading videos first hit the web this summer. Now, at last, the first teaser trailer has been released & it’s looking to be everything we want in all of its glossy & escapist glory!
Singer-songwriter / director / actress Taylor Swift celebrates her 33rd birthday & while her red carpet history is a marvelous evolution from sweet teen to sleek & fierce, let’s take a look back 10 of Taylor’s most stylish—recent—music videos. The “Shake It Off” singer has created so many memorable pop & country songs worthy of a bop or two while listening to the radio; however, the visuals provided in the below music videos / short films are a marvel & provide major fashion moments.
Among the slew of highly-anticipated celebrity documentaries the web is clamoring over recently, perhaps the most buzzed about news comes from Netflix’s new Harry and Meghan, about the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. The revealing behind-the-scenes exploration of the royal couple confronts the difficulties they’ve experienced in the spotlight & with family, as well as the joys of their wedding, becoming a family, & standing on their own, outside of royal life.
As seen in the trailer, Harry & Meghan share plenty of personal selfies & photographs, never before seen by the public. According to the streaming service, the 6-part docuseries “explores the clandestine days of their early courtship and the challenges that led to them feeling forced to step back from their full-time roles in the institution…With commentary from friends and family, most of whom have never spoken publicly before about what they witnessed, and historians who discuss the state of the British Commonwealth today and the royal family’s relationship with the press, the series does more than illuminate one couple’s love story, it paints a picture of our world and how we treat each other.”
Additionally, Meghan states at the close of the trailer, “When the stakes are this high doesn’t it make more sense to hear our story from us?” Similarly, Harry reveals, “No one sees what’s happening behind closed doors…I had to do everything I could to protect my family.”
While we don’t know when the series will be available to stream on Netflix, beyond “coming soon,” the hype is palpable & surely, the controversial couple will be back in the spotlight, to some degree, to do press. Will you be watching the docuseries? Are you intrigued by the royal family? What do you think of celebrity documentaries?

At last night’s 2022 MTV Europe Music Awards, Midnights mastermind Taylor Swift dominated not only the red carpet, but the stage, earning well-deserved accolades for Best Artist, Best Video, Best Pop & Best Longform Video for “All Too Well: The Short Film,” starring Sadie Sink & Dylan O’Brien. The “Lavender Haze” singer donned 2 different dresses from David Koma, including a bodysuit & jeweled overlay (shop similar here), paired with sleek black slingback heels by Giuseppe Zanotti (shop here); when accepting her awards, Taylor strutted in a sparkling minidress (shop here) with silver platforms (shop similar here). These are by far her most glittery style choices yet, continuing her Midnights-era glam. Additionally, Taylor accessorizes with a mix of hoop, stud, & crawler earrings, along with various blinged-out rings, all of which offset her black & green cat-eye + curtain bang & tight bun beauty choices.
For a little more of what Taylor is serving up this season, here are her latest music videos for “Anti-Hero” & “Bejeweled”:
It may seem like singer / actress / producer / entrepreneur / mental health advocate Selena Gomez doesn’t stop, but in the pop star’s recent cover story for Rolling Stone, taking a break from the spotlight, or from endless hours of work & personal chaos, is a necessary for everyone–not just celebrities. As mental health awareness becomes more & more integral for an ever-changing society, A-listers & artists are speaking out more honestly regarding how they handle their traumas, find balance between their careers & fame, & continue to learn more about the human psyche.
In fact, Selena’s new documentary, My Mind and Me, reveals the explicit, very personal, & gritty journey that she continues to experience with her own health issues, including her bipolar diagnosis. The documentary, which includes a beautifully heartbreaking song of the same name, is available to stream on Apple TV+ starting today. InRolling Stone‘s article, written by Alex Morris, photographed by Amanda Charchian, & styled by Kate Young, Selena’s candor & vulnerability set the tone for what viewers should expect in the film, especially once audiences hear the “My Mind and Me” ballad that hit airwaves yesterday.
In every interview, song, & role she takes on, Selena’s charm & celebration of kindness remains grounded in her intense desire to discuss what really matters for not only her own personal fulfillment, but also how to give back through charity efforts & returning support to her fans & the public how grapple with their own mental health. It’s no wonder that her portrayal of Mabel Mora on Hulu’s Only Murders from the Building & the hi-jinx on HBO Max’s Selena + Chef have contributed to the Rare Beauty & Wondermind founder‘s status as the most-followed individual on Instagram.
Take a look at the trailer for the documentary below, along with the lyric video for “My Mind and Me.”
