Celebs: They’re just like us. They spend nine months struggling through swollen ankles, morning sickness, and belly bands. They spend sleepless nights feeding and changing their kiddos. And they spend endless days chasing around tantruming toddlers. So it makes sense they would create baby products to make their (and all parents’) lives a little easier. From bubbly baby bath soaps to cute kiddo clothes, here are a few celeb-made lines worth checking out.
First there was Austin Butler as Elvis, then Timothée Chalamet as Bob Dylan and Jeremy Allen White as Bruce Springsteen. And now, after months of rumors, we finally got insider confirmation that Paul Mescal will be starring in a Beatles movie! (TBH after showing off his singing chops during SNL, I'd expect no less). Not only did Ridley Scott tell the world that Paul will be in the new movies, but sources confirmed to Variety that he's attached to the project.
Here's everything you need to know about Paul Mescal's Beatles movie — including which member of the band he's attached to play.
Ridley Scott seemingly confirms Paul Mescal's Paul McCartney casting.
During a Christopher Nolan, Gladiator 2 director Ridley Scott was asked if Paul Mescal was starring in his next film The Dog Stars. “Yes,” Ridley says. “Maybe. Paul is actually stacked up, doing the Beatles next. So I may have to let him go.”
While Paul Mescal's involvement in Sony's upcoming Beatle biopic quartet (say that five times fast) has been around the rumor mill, the news hasn't actually been confirmed by the movie studio. Um, does that mean Ridley Scott just leaked the information to the entire world?! I feel like this is information I'm not supposed to have.
Even though we don't have official casting news on the films, we do know that Sam Mendes is making four biopics, one for each of the band members. The movies will intersect to “tell the astonishing story of the greatest band in history,” per Variety.
Here's what Paul Mescal had to say about those Beatles biopic rumors.
Paul's rumored to play Paul McCartney, and told GQ in October 2024 that he "would love to be involved, but there’s nothing set in stone,” before telling ET at the Gladiator 2 Los Angeles premiere that "it would be an incredible story to be attached to. The fact that Sam Mendes is attached to direct, it truly would be a dream come true."
Fan casts for the other members of The Beatles include Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Asa Butterfield, Barry Keoghan, and Tom Holland — which I would totally be here for TBH!

Congratulations are in order for Selena Gomez & Benny Blanco — they're engaged! The couple have been romantically linked since 2023 (although they collaborated on 2019's "I Can't Get Enough"), and on December 11, 2024, Selena Gomez confirmed they were getting married. TLDR; Selena's getting her "love on"!! This is one wedding I know is going to look gorgeous and I, for one, can't wait to see Selena Gomez's wedding dress. I'm smiling just thinking about it!
Here's everything you need to know about Benny Blanco & Selena Gomez's engagement — including Selena Gomez's ring! See their adorable pictures below.
Selena Gomez is engaged! And she's all smiles in the announcement.
Selena Gomez posted four photos to Instagram celebrating her engagement to Benny Blanco, and captioned the post (which begins with a close-up of her amazing engagement ring), "forever begins now.." The post also includes a photo of Selena wearing a fur coat and jeans during a picnic, an overjoyed selfie, and a shot of Benny with his arms around her.
Of course, friends and fans flooded the comments with congratulations, led by Benny himself. "hey wait… that’s my wife," he said. "yes I will be the flower girl," Taylor Swift commented.
Nina Dobrev (who recently got engaged herself to Shaun White) commented with plenty of emojis, saying, "YES !!!! Congratulations!!!!! So happy for you both!!!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍‼️" while Selena's official Rare Beauty account commented, "CONGRATULATIONS 🥹💍 so happy for you two!!"
While we won't know details about Selena Gomez's wedding for quite some time (if she chooses to share them), we do know one thing: she's keeping her last name. "I’m not changing my name no matter what,” she said in a September interview with Vanity Fair. “I am Selena Gomez. That’s it.”
The "Lose You To Love Me" singer added that she's "never been loved this way," and called Benny "a complete light in my life" before adding that "he’s my best friend [and] I love telling him everything.”
The internet (and the paparazzi) have focused on Selena's relationships since she began dating Justin Bieber in 2010. Despite the intense scrutiny, the actress has found ways to both speak honestly about her desire for relationships (like in 2020's "Boyfriend") and have fun with her singleness too (like with 2023's "Single Soon").
Selena went viral in June of 2023 when she sat on a field watching a soccer game and called to the players to let them know she was single at the time. "I'm just a little high maintenance but I'll love you so much," she said. Looks like you don't have to sit on any more soccer fields Selena!
We're sending Selena Gomez & Benny Blanco so much love ahead of their big day! Check out Hailee Steinfeld & Josh Allen's gorgeous engagement photos for even more butterflies ;).
The MCU isn't done with the Multiverse just yet. After Kevin Feige announced Robert Downey Jr. would star as Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday at San Diego Comic Con, it appears we'll see another OG Avenger in the movie: Chris Evans! But will he star as Steve Rogers/Captain America or Johnny Storm like he did in Deadpool & Wolverine? (Or Heaven forbid, another Doctor Doom.)
Here's everything we know about Chris Evans' reported return to the MCU in Avengers: Doomsday, coming May 1, 2026.
We could see more than one Captain America in 'Avengers: Doomsday.'
Deadline confirmed that Chris Evans would step back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe on December 9, and their sources also say Anthony Mackie will return as Sam Wilson's version of Captain America. Maybe we'll see another Cap vs. Cap battle like we saw in 2019's Avengers: Endgame?
In addition to Chris Evans and RDJ, we'll reportedly also see the Fantastic Four (Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, and Joseph Quinn), and I'm hoping for confirmation we'll be reunited with Tom Holland's Peter Parker, Iman Vellani's Kamala Khan, and Hailee Steinfeld's Kate Bishop.
Avengers: Doomsday is directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, so I'm sure it'll have the same magic of the old school Marvel movies we know and love!
Marvel Studios
Some fans were not happy when Endgame ended with Steve Rogers returning the Infinity Stones to their respective timelines and staying in the 1940s to begin a life with Peggy (basically opening up a brand new timeline). His entire arc since Captain America: The First Avenger in 2011 had been about his relationship with Bucky Barnes, and fighting to help a Hydra-brainwashed Bucky return to his true self. Ditching his newfound family for Peggy simply feels like a character regression. But it looks like Doomsday could be a step in fixing that.
"I need Steve and Bucky together again," one Instagram user says. Another points out that Chris' involvement could be "a flashback to get people excited, but I hope it’s Captain Hydra. Give me Bucky fighting Captain Hydra!" Bucky vs. Evil Steve and Peter Parker vs. Doctor Doom would be the craziest plot twist of the century (especially if Doom is really an evil Tony Stark variant)!
Here's what Chris Evans has said about returning to Marvel.
Chris Evans has been vocal in the past about needing a really good reason to return to the MCU, which means Avengers: Doomsday must be one heck of a script! "I would never say never, but I'm very protective of it," Chris said on an episode of the The View in 2023 (via Boston.com). "It's a very precious role to me, so it would have to be just right."
Well call me Goldilocks because the cast and crew on Doomsday (and the story, of course) must have been perfect! Stay tuned for the latest news on Chris Evans and the future of the MCU!

Shawn Mendes is in a chatty mood lately, seemingly opening up about a lot of rumors these days — including those viral Sabrina Carpenter and Camila Cabello love triangle rumors. The controversy between this trio is all anyone could talk about during the 2024 VMAs, and now Shawn is ready to talk about it...sort of. On John Mayer's latest SiriusXM show, the singer shared some tidbits that seem to be about the alleged triangle. Here's what the singer had to say!
Scroll down to read what Shawn Mendes potentially just said about THAT Sabrina Carpenter and Camila Cabello situation...

During John Mayer's SiriusXM radio show, How's Life, Shawn Mendes told a slightly vague — but honestly very specific, if you ask me — story about a complicated romantic situation he was in once. He explained that he was "with someone" but he told them that he was going to go hangout with his ex because he had some "unresolved feelings."
The "Stitches" singer continued, saying, “The biggest lesson I’ve heard is no one gets out of this life without getting hurt, and no one gets out of this life without hurting someone.” While nobody ever wants to hurt people — whether they're romantically involved or not — it's honestly inevitable at times, so this is a really apt lesson for Shawn to learn (and share).

Useful platitudes aside, it's not lost on us that this story seems to coincide with the rampant rumors revolving around Shawn, Sabrina, and Camila. According to ELLE, Sabrina and Shawn were spotted out together a ton in 2023, even leaving a Miley Cyrus release party together one night. However, they allegedly split due to Shawn and Camila getting back together.
The timelines between the two relationships are definitely fuzzy, and now it seems like that fact's not lost on Shawn either. Hopefully these lessons he took away from all this have helped him make amends and everyone move on.
...But I'd be lying if I didn't say I'm definitely curious to see what Sabrina and Camila's group chats with their girlfriends look like right now. 🤭

Minimal effort — that's our favorite phrase.

We use chopped potatoes, carrots, and red onion in this honey mustard chicken recipe, but you could easily replace 'em with baby new potatoes, baby carrots, and shallots (or scallions) to skip the knife work!
