Harry Styles Refuses To Tell Kendall Jenner Which Of His Songs Are About Her


James Corden is busy welcoming his first kid into the world, so he had none other than Harry Styles fill in for him on the Late Late Show: Harry Styles. The former One Direction member guided the show pretty seamlessly and even got the Internet talking when he welcomed his rumored ex-girlfriend Kendall Jenner to set and filmed a segment of “Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts,” a game in which players have to decide between answering tough questions or eating truly disgusting concoctions.

Things got interesting when Jenner read one question that Styles really didn’t want to respond to: When she asked what songs from his debut album were about her, he got super evasive. Jenner took the whole thing in stride and laughed, saying, “I’m dying to know this,” and for a second, it looked like Styles might answer. “So I’d say track…” he started, but then trailed off and grabbed a fork. He briefly turned to the audience and joked in disbelief, “What are we doing?” Eventually, he took a bite of the cod sperm and almost immediately spit it back out.

The two of them joked around a lot, seeming to prove that there’s no bad blood after they sparked relationship rumors in 2016. And they were actually kind of forthcoming when it came to other questions: Jenner listed her siblings in order of best parenting skills (she stressed they were all “amazing,” but then revealed Rob was her number one, followed by Khloe, Kim, Kylie, and Kourtney.) She did chose to drink a salmon smoothie (ick) instead of sharing which supermodel is the most unlikeable and she boldly ate bull penis to avoid telling the world the name of the most surprising celebrity to slide into her DMS.

Styles, meanwhile, spilled that he has in fact watched episodes of Keeping Up With The Kardashians (he used the opportunity to poke fun at the Kardashian-Jenner clan, saying, “It was the one where you’re eating salads in the kitchen and then you all were shouting at each other.”) But when Jenner asked him to rank the albums of his former bandmates, he bit into a giant water scorpion before she could even finish the question. That’s definitely commitment.

The Bachelorette Season 15, Episode 9, Recap: Hannah Refuses to Give Out a Final Rose


Speaking of other relationships, Hannah travels to Jupiter, Florida for her hometown date with Tyler. And he’s planned a great day: rubbing sunscreen all over his abs. OK, fine, that’s just the start; though I doubt Hannah would complain if the day began and ended there.

The date only goes uphill from there: Hannah gets to sit on Tyler’s lap while he drives a boat named the “Reel Clean” and points out the local sights, followed by a swim (and make out session) in the sea. “It’s super hot kissing Tyler,” Hannah says, to the shock of no one.

I would have loved more time watching Tyler splash around the ocean, but I guess Hannah does have to meet his family. And this hometown is especially emotional because Tyler’s dad was suffering from a paralyzed vocal chord—and Tyler hasn’t seen him since he left for the show, so it’s been hard to not know how the recovery’s been going.

So, of course, I tear up when Tyler and his dad are reunited. When the two sit down for a chat, Tyler admits he’s taking this process seriously because he wants his dad to be able to see him with a wife and kids someday. His dad replies that he hasn’t seen Tyler this happy in a long time. And I’m crying again.

Hannah’s talk with Dad is just as sweet—apparently Tyler hasn’t had many girlfriends, so it’s good but scary to see him so enamored. Damn, as if we needed another reason to love Tyler. Before Hannah leaves, she and Tyler make out in the backseat of an SUV while the driver stares forward and does his best to pretend like it’s not happening. A pro!

The third hometown date is with Luke in Gainesville, Georgia. He takes her to a church meeting, where he stands up and shares the story we’ve heard before: how he was “tangled up in sin” until God spoke to him in the shower. It feels more like a motivational speech than anything else, but Hannah seems into it? When they break out into smaller groups, everyone praises Luke so much it feels like a set up. Um, have you all met Luke? Maybe they thought Hannah was asking about some amazing dude named Duke?

Bride Refuses to Hire Gay Makeup Artist — See the Viral Screenshots


“I still have more questions. How can you be a latina woman and be gay? You do know being gay is a sin correct,” the bride says, making assumptions about Cardenas’s beliefs. “I will pray for you my friend. I’m sorry that you’ve chosen a path that’s going to send you straight to hell. I think you do beautiful makeup but i just can’t have someone who’s gay being apart of my special day. The wedding is in a church and i don’t want you walking into my church.”

As if that weren’t bad enough, the bride ignorantly suggests that if Cardenas suddenly decides to stop being a lesbian, she’ll hire her, saying, “If you at any chance change your mind about being gay let me know please so i can book you.”

Words like this would be hurtful to anyone who doesn’t identify as straight, but they were especially painful to Cardenas, who told me she had only just recently come out. “I wanted to post [this conversation] for my friends and family because about a month and a half ago, I came out to everyone on social media. I was tired of hiding who I was. And when I had such a positive reaction to me sharing who I was I felt like everyone just needed a little taste of my reality,” she tells Allure, explaining that she’s struggled with facing acceptance in her small Texas town.

The response she’s gotten to the screenshots has been heartening — sympathy, support, love, and a new understanding. “So many friends and family or just strangers had no idea that people could actually be like this. I wanted to share to bring some light on the subject because it’s from someone they know and love,” Cardenas tells Allure. “I’ve been getting such a positive response, so much love and support, whether it be from potential clients, strangers, or someone who’s struggling with their own story. Of course, I have my fair share of awful things still being said to me. I have to brush that aside and focus on the positive.”

In fact, Cardenas tells Allure that even the bride-to-be has reached out after the conversation went viral. “She apologized, but told me it was her wedding and her choice to choose who she wanted doing makeup and hair, and that her beliefs shouldn’t have hurt my feelings,” Cardenas explains. And then, displaying the kind of tolerance Cardenas herself deserves, she says, “I understand where she’s coming from. I just wish she would have been a little nicer about it.”

Rihanna Refuses to Use Trans Models As ‘Convenient Marketing Tools’ for Fenty Beauty


Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty campaign is one of the most diverse campaigns we’ve seen this year. In fact, it’s one of the most diverse campaigns we’ve seen, ever. While it was a long time coming, at this point, it’s clear that Rihanna’s commitment to casting a spectrum of people has paid off—both in terms of how well Fenty products have sold (like crazy), and in how much it means for people to see themselves represented as beautiful. But as one fan recently pointed out, one of the identities not represented in Fenty’s campaigns thus far is trans women.

After the fan suggested that Rihanna change that for future campaigns, she responded in her typically transparent style and walked us through her thought process. On Instagram, she wrote, “I’ve had the pleasure of working with many gifted trans women throughout the years, but I don’t go around doing trans castings! Just like I don’t do straight non trans women castings! I respect all women, and whether they’re trans or not is none of my business!”

She continued: “It’s personal and some trans women are more comfortable being open about it than others, so I have to respect that as a woman myself! I don’t think it’s fair that a trans woman, or man, be used as a convenient marketing tool! Too often do I see companies doing this to trans and black women alike! There’s always just that one spot in the campaign for the token ‘we look mad diverse’ girl/guy! It’s sad!”

It’s undeniable that tokenism is still an issue in advertising—let alone if folks outside the young, thin, cis, straight, Eurocentric “norm” are represented at all. That’s been changing for the better recently though, with makeup brands like CoverGirl, Sephora, and Glossier including people of all kinds. We’ve still got a ways to go, obviously, until diverse castings are no longer news, but the recent campaigns have been a step in the right direction. Given how integral Fenty Beauty has been to furthering that conversation, we’d guess it’s only a matter of time until everyone ends up in the Fenty fold. No one knows the workings of Rihanna’s mind, of course, but herself. But from what we’ve seen, she’s got our back.
