Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez's Fourth of July Celebration Was an Adorable Family Affair


Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez continued to cement their status as an Instagram power couple over the Fourth of July holiday, and this time, the whole family got involved. The result? Some pretty adorable pics of Lopez-Rodriguez bunch celebrating the holiday.

A-Rod is not only a pro at being an Instagram husband, he’s also a doting Instagram dad. The former Yankees star shared an adorable photo of himself, Lopez, and their four children: Max and Emme, J. Lo’s twins from her marriage to Marc Anthony; and Ella and Natasha, his daughters from a previous marriage. “Today, we all celebrate the amazing freedoms we have as Americans. From our family to yours, have a happy and safe #July4th holiday everyone! ??,” he wrote in the caption.

“He [Rodriguez] loves taking pictures and documenting the moment,” Lopez told People recently. And back in 2017, she offered a more comprehensive rundown of A-Rod’s best qualities, telling Extra, “He’s a loving father. He’s a generous human being with his family, with his friends, with me. He’s caring and sweet and capable and responsible and just all the beautiful things you would want a man to be.”

But he’s not above taking advice from his kids when it comes to the ‘gram. “My coaches are my girls—they’re my biggest critics,” he told People. “I know immediately if I posted something dorky, because both of the girls start blowing me up. They’re like, ‘Dad take that down, we’re teenagers. We’re going to be ragged on at school.’ We have fun with it, but they know best because that’s more their strength.”

The couple doesn’t shy away from letting the public in on their private lives, sharing videos of themselves working out together and partaking in cute family moments. When they got engaged in March, they made the big announcement—and showed off Lopez’s gorgeous ring—on Instagram first.

The two are set to be married, although pretty much all the details are TBD on that front, including the date. “We haven’t started planning yet. You know, we just got engaged!” she said. “Then right afterwards we started working right away, and we’re working the rest of the year, so I don’t know what’s going to happen. We haven’t decided if we’re going to squeeze it in somewhere or we’re going to wait.” All we can say is, we can’t wait to see the wedding pics.

Alex Morgan Lit Up the Internet with Her Tea-Sipping Celebration During the World Cup Semifinals


Soccer star Alex Morgan had a very happy 30th birthday yesterday (July 2).

Morgan and the U.S. Women’s National Team defeated England in their semifinal match and will move on to play the winner of today’s matchup between Sweden and the Netherlands on Sunday (July 7). During the 31st minute of the first half, Morgan scored a goal putting the U.S. ahead 2-1, which ended up being the final score.

But it was her epic celebration that still has everyone talking today. After her goal, Morgan headed toward the sideline and mimicked sipping a cup of tea, complete with an extended pinky finger. Of course, tea is basically the national beverage in the U.K., so the message was pretty clear.

I, for one, thought it was brilliant—as did many others on social media, where “tea” connotes much more than just a drink.

“THAT ONE PLAYER FROM ENGLAND DID THE GOGGLES AND ALEX MORGAN WAS LIKE “OH OKAY WE’RE TALKING SHIT NOW” AND THEN SCORED A GOAL AND TOOK A SIP OF TEA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA,” writer Shea Serrano tweeted. And the USWNT’s official Twitter handle got in on the action too, writing, “No. 13 on her birthday. In honor of those 13 colonies. That’s. The. Tea ?????? Go on, @alexmorgan13, what a birthday!”

Because it happened so close to Independence Day, the colonial and Boston Tea Party references were flying around, as well.

Of course, not everyone was as pleased. The USWNT has already been accused of being too “cocky,” which I find to be nonsense, especially as they keep backing it up with incredible play on the field. And as many have pointed out, would we be making such comments about a men’s team? Though some Brits had a good sense of humor about it. “Oh, come on @alexmorgan13 – if you’re going to troll us you could at least dunk a biscuit in that tea. #doitproperly,” one wrote.

Inside North West and Penelope Disick's Epic Candy Land-Themed Birthday Celebration


It’s become somewhat of a Kardashian-Jenner tradition to throw some seriously over-the-top parties—who among us could ever forget Kylie Jenner‘s Stormi World? So, naturally, to celebrate North West‘s sixth birthday on Saturday (June 15), as well as Penelope Disick‘s upcoming seventh birthday on July 8, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian pulled out all the stops to give their daughters a bash they’re definitely going to remember. On Saturday, the sisters brought the game of Candy Land to life by throwing an incredible sweets-themed party.

Kim and Kourtney shared clips of the event on their Instagram Stories—and let’s just say the sugar crash must have been real when the party was all over. There were lollipops, sour ropes, M&Ms, gummi bears, gumballs, Pez, cupcakes, cake pops, and more. It’s unclear which of the Kardashian sisters’ homes the lavish party was held at, but whoever’s backyard it was held in was transformed into the Hasbro board game, complete with a rainbow walkway, candy-themed bounce house, and giant balloons.

Scroll down for an inside look into North and Penelope’s candy-themed birthday party.

Kate Middleton's 37th Birthday Celebration Sounds Refreshingly Normal


Kate Middleton and her glorious royal hair turn 37 years old today (January 9). But how exactly do you celebrate when you’re the Duchess of Cambridge? Well, pretty low-key, actually.

“Kate’s not into big birthday celebrations, but George and Charlotte adore birthday cake, so there will be a special tea party at the palace with candles and presents,” a source told Vanity Fair. Middleton is reportedly spending her big day home at Kensington Palace after doing school drop-offs and pickups for her two older children, which sounds like the most normal birthday ever.

Of course, unlike the rest of us, Middleton received public birthday wishes from all the official royal accounts, including the queen’s. “Happy Birthday to HRH The Duchess of Cambridge!” the post read. “The duchess undertakes royal duties in support of the queen, both in the U.K. and overseas—and devotes her time to supporting charitable causes and organizations, several of which are centered around providing children with the best possible start in life.”

Prince William has an official engagement today for the thirtieth anniversary of London’s Air Ambulance but will be home in time to celebrate with Kate and the kids, according to Vanity Fair.

And he’s not coming home empty-handed. Some of the children at Prince William’s event brought along cards and gifts for him to take home to Middleton. “Well, thank you for remembering,” he said, according to The Daily Mail. “I did actually remember this morning, so I was OK.”

Here’s the big question: What do we think Prince William gives Kate Middleton for her birthday? I can’t imagine they do joke gifts, as is reportedly the royal Christmas tradition. So perhaps a new bespoke headband, along with an amazing piece of jewelry from Princess Diana’s collection? That sounds like the perfect combination.

Happy birthday, Kate!

Lady Gaga's Fiancé Posted a Rare Shot of Their Intimate Post-Golden Globes Celebration


The Golden Globes didn’t go quite as we expected for Lady Gaga and the cast and crew of A Star Is Born—they lost the majority of the awards they were nominated for—but Gaga still has a new trophy to add to her collection. She nabbed the award for Best Original Song for “Shallow,” making her a two-time Golden Globe winner (she previously won for her role on American Horror Story). And in true Gaga fashion she didn’t spend the night mourning her loss of Best Actress, Drama to Glenn Close—instead, she partied with her fiancé, Christian Carino.

Lady Gaga, her amazing Valentino dress that was an homage to Judy Garland, and Carino painted the town red. First they stopped by the Warner Brothers party, then InStyle‘s Golden Globes after party, where they shared a kiss for the camera.

But the real celebration for her win was far away from the glamorous parties and celebrities. Gaga finished her epic night with a bowl of Fruity Pebbles in bed with Carino, who she first confirmed her engagement to back in October. Lucky for us, Carino snapped a pic of it for the ‘gram. Carino chose a black and white filter for the snap of Gaga clutching her trophy, under the covers, out of her dress, and cuddled up next to the box of cereal (in case she needed a refill, of course). He captioned the intimate shot with, “what a rager,” and added a red emoji heart for good measure.

In the midst of the festivities, Gaga also took to Twitter to thank her collaborators on “Shallow” and to congratulate Glenn Close on her win. She tweeted, “I am so beyond grateful for this Golden Globe & honored to have won it w/ @MarkRonson @Wyattish , Anthony Rossomando and to have sang it with Bradley Cooper. I also could not be happier for Glenn Close winning tonight. She is a true legend and deserves every award. Thank you HFPA.”

This is far from the last we’ll see of Gaga during the awards seasons. Next week she’ll appear at the Critics’ Choice Awards, where she’s nominated for Best Actress and A Star Is Born is up for six other noms.

Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle Both Looked Incredible in Pastels at the Queen's Trooping the Color Celebration


The royal family and a lot of the public came together in London on Saturday for Trooping the Color, a.k.a. Queen Elizabeth II’s official birthday celebration. Crash royals course: If you happen to be the Queen of England, you get two birthdays. She celebrated her actual 92nd birthday in April, but the real party—her public birthday—is in June, specifically on the second Saturday of the month.

Although it’s only been three weeks since the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, it’s beginning to feel like it was a lifetime ago since we were able to get our royal fashion fix (those hats!). Luckily the Duchesses of Cambridge and Sussex—that’s Kate Middleton and Markle respectively—did not disappoint. The two wore blue and pink pastels for carriage rides around Buckingham Palace that culminated with an appearance on its famous balcony.

Middleton appeared in the lead carriage with Prince Charles’ wife, Camilla, who herself is the Duchess of Cornwall. The two were coordinated in light blue, with Middleton opting for a dress from one of her favorite design houses, Alexander McQueen. (She famously wore McQueen for her own wedding, Prince Harry and Markle’s wedding a few weeks ago, and even for Trooping the Color last year.)

According to What Kate Wore, her intricate hat is by Juliette Boterill.

Markle chose a peachy-pink look, topped off with a disc-shaped hat somewhat reminiscent of the one she wore for her first post-wedding appearance celebrating Prince Charles’ 70th birthday. But she decided against her now-signature messy bun for today’s occasion, wearing her hair down and in loose waves instead.

Her designers of choice? Carolina Herrera for her bespoke dress and, for the hat, the go-to milliner-to-the-stars Philip Treacy. But there’s another significant detail to her look: According to the Sun, Markle broke royal protocol by wearing an off-the-shoulder dress.

This isn’t the first time, either: Markle’s been breaking royal protocol with her fashion and hair choices since she and Harry officially started dating (we even kept a running list of tradition-breaking moments from her wedding to Prince Harry). Technically, even Markle’s famous messy bun is a royal no-no. Hello, royal refresh.

Of course, we can’t forget the Queen on her big day. Sticking to her tradition of bright colors, she went with a bright turquoise for her celebrations.

After the processional, the family gathered on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to wave to the crowds and watch the Royal Air Force flyover—frankly, though, we like to think it’s so we can get a better look at the great outfits.

Happy official birthday, Queen Elizabeth!
