You’ve Never Seen Junk Food Like This Before

This Instagram proves that your art can be inspired by anything. Thanks to Chef Jacques LaMerde’s gorgeous plated junk food collections, we can now say junk food with the greatest admiration. He’s able to mix his high-society style food plating and culinary knowledge with… well, Bugles, Doritos and Hostess cakes.

Did we forget to mention he also has pretty endearing sense of humor about the whole thing? Well, he does — corn dogs, Spaghettios and all.

Package the whole thing together, and you’re in for a pretty delightful and inspiring Instagram experience. And we’re willing to put money on it that your Luchables never looked quite so enticing during that field trip to the zoo.

We can’t get over how perspective changes everything. We mean, is fancy food even really fancy? Or does it just look fancy? Deep thoughts…

Pop-Tarts, Snack Packs and our favorite candies from the ’90s come together in this masterpiece.

You guys, that’s purple Go-Gurt and Powerade gel you’re looking at.

A Kinder Egg filled with raw cake batter and garnished with charred Rice Krispies — we can’t get enough of this.

We love all of this, but we’d love it even more if you told us your favorites in the comments below.

While I love seeing BookTok-viral novels get turned into movies (hello It Ends With Us!), it's just as fun to see them get turned into TV shows, like Fourth Wing — which is why I had such high hopes for A Court of Thorns and Roses at Hulu...before it got canceled. But believe it or not, the fantasy series cancellation could actually a good thing.

Here's the latest update on the A Court of Thorns and Roses show.

Is the ACOTAR TV show still happening?

A Court of Thorns and Roses TV show has officially be scrapped at Disney’s 20th Television, according to Variety. But ACOTAR fans, don't give up hope! Sarah J. Maas was working with Outlander creator Ronald D. Moore, but now Variety's sources say that after the rights expire at Disney, SJM will be shopping the rights to an ACOTAR show to a different studio and platform.

Honestly, I'm totally here for this because a platform like Prime or Max would provide a different kind of edge and aesthetic to the series that would serve it in a different way. And if we have to wait a little longer for a platform SJM feels most aligned with, I'm willing to stick it out!

On February 27, 2024, Sarah J. Maas reportedly went out to coffee with Margot Robbie. Margot's production company (LuckyChap) has backed projects like I, Tonya, Promising Young Woman, Saltburn. Everything Margot touches turns to gold so I really hope she eventually ends up on the creative team for A Court of Thorns and Roses!

Who plays Rhysand in ACOTAR?

We never got an official cast announcement, but there are plenty of ACOTAR fancasts.

Hannah Dodd, who plays Francesca in Netflix's hit series Bridgerton, would be the PERFECT addition to the cast, whether she plays Elain or Feyre. And now, I honestly don't know if I'll be satisfied with anyone else ;). "She is ELAIN," one TikTok user comments. "Literally copy paste from my brain Elain."

Deuxmoi (via Marie Claire Australia) revealed some potential actors who could be in the running, like Thomas Doherty, Theo James, and Katherine Langford. Actress Brec Bassigner expressed that she'd love to be considered for a role. "I emailed my team, and I was like, ‘Listen, I don’t care if I have one line. I have to be a part of this,'" she says in an interview with TV Line.

Is ACOTAR getting a 6th book?

Amazon

Yes, ACOTAR book 6 is on the way! We don't know who the new book will focus on, but Sarah J. Maas did say she's excited to bring it to us.

"The next book in that series, I have the ideas and general, vague thoughts. But the nitty gritty of writing and the emotional journeys with the characters — I usually love to go on those journeys with them," she said during an appearance on TODAY.

What is A Court of Thorns and Roses about?

Amazon

A Court of Thorns and Roses follows Feyre, a huntress who's forced to live with the immortal faeries after killing a wolf in the woods. The longer she stays in the Fae's world, the more she begins to love it — and the passionate, alluring faerie Tamlin. But as a dark shadow grows, both their world and Tamlin are put in danger, and it's up to Feyre to save them all.

When did the Court of Thorns and Roses series come out?

Amazon

A Court of Thorns and Roses is the first novel in the series of the same name, and was published in 2015. Sarah J. Maas continued the series with A Court of Mist and Fury in 2016, A Court of Wings and Ruin in 2017, A Court of Frost and Starlight in 2018, and A Court of Silver Flames in 2021.

Sydney Sweeney's alleged extended hotel stay has taken a more permanent turn. After postponing her wedding to fiancé Jonathan Davino at the end of February, Sydney turned heads when she stepped out in Barbie pink at the Vanity Fair Oscars party — and then joined Glen Powell at his sister's wedding. Now, according to a few sources, the Euphoria actress and her fiancé have called it quits.

Keep reading for everything you need to know about Jonathan Davino & Sydney Sweeney's breakup.

Are Sydney Sweeney and Jonathan Davino still together?

Sydney Sweeney and Jonathan Davino have called off their wedding. However, the actress is "exactly where she wants to be. Most people would feel overwhelmed by her working schedule this year, but not Syd. She's all about working right now and very excited about all her projects," a source toldPeople.

The Anyone But You actress is "in the middle of this magical career that she could only dream of a few years ago...This is what she wants to focus on right now."

"What did make her overwhelmed though was her relationship and her wedding," the source adds. "She didn't feel right about it."

Sydney Sweeney was reportedly staying on her own.

According to TMZ sourceson March 11, Sydney Sweeney was having a solo stay at the Beverly Hills Hotel since "around the middle of February." Apparently she hasn't been joined by Jonathan Davino throughout her time, instead sticking with some friends and one of her bodyguards.

We don't have official news on a breakup just yet, but while The Housemaid actress' decision to postpone her wedding definitely made headlines, Sydney's always maintained that she's been too busy with work to rush to the altar. "I am so busy working!" she told Entertainment Tonight when asked about the wedding. "I'm a workaholic and I love it, I love it."

How long have Sydney Sweeney and Jonathan Davino been together?

Sydney Sweeney and Jonathan Davino were together from 2018 until 2025. They kept their relationship pretty low-key since they were first linked in 2018. And in 2023 she revealed why she keeps those details close to her chest.

“Everyone is always so curious about who I’m with and what’s that like, but I think it’s important to have something for me,” Sydney toldGlamour UK. “I’m very open [otherwise]. I talk about so much, and sometimes, it gets me in trouble, but I do try to keep something for me.”

“I’ve been in a steady relationship for a really long time, which is not normal in this industry and not normal for my age,” she continued. “What I’ve noticed about the idea of celebrity is people really love to build someone up and then tear them down.”

Are Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney together?

Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell aren't in a public relationship, but they started major buzz when they both attended Glen's sister's wedding in Texas. And whether there's romance between or not, there's clearly a lot of love.
