The Most Devoted Birth Months, Ranked
Have you noticed that people born in certain months are either unfailingly loyal or extremely changeable? You may have realized that some of your best friends, partners, colleagues, and more share the same birth months. Likewise, the people who contributed to your greatest heartbreaks and betrayals could also have birthdays that consistently fall within the same months. There’s a reason for why some birth months are devoted while others are unfaithful, and it’s based in astrology.
According to astrologers, the cosmic energy of your birth month proves whether or not you could pass a loyalty test. Some birth months will be unfailingly devoted to friends, partners, causes, and more, regardless of what happens. Other birth months won’t think twice about betraying trust or leaving someone in the dust. Each birth month has distinct attributes that speak to why they are or aren’t loyal. Read on to see how the birth months are ranked by their devotion.
The Most Devoted Birth Months, RankedCheck for the month you were born for pro insights.
Learn more about your birth month:
Born in January | Born in February | Born in March
Born in April | Born in May | Born in June | Born in July
Born in August | Born in September | Born in October
Born in November | Born in December
OctoberNo one is as true blue as those born in October. This birth month’s energy is a combination of commitment-focused Libra and unwavering Scorpio. Everyone born in October is profoundly invested in their connections and circumstances. Their Libra energy wants to keep the connection ongoing, which works well with their possessive Scorpio energy. October won’t be easily swayed from leaving a connection or situation once they’ve committed. It’s highly unlikely that an October-born will throw the towel in. Know that befriending, dating, or working with an October baby means having a life-long connection.
JulyThose born in July are undeniably devoted to their community, family, and more. July babies share Cancer’s family-oriented attitude and Leo’s nobility, which suggests these individuals are in it for the long-haul. They treat each relationship as if the person were family, creating a safe and secure environment for love to grow. Their connections never have to worry, because July will drop everything to be available for them. Aside from relationships, July can be counted on to nurture their obligations and responsibilities with great care. No matter the circumstances or problem, July won’t walk away when the going gets tough.
RELATE?: The 4 Birth Dates With the Most Unbreakable Willpower
JanuaryCount on January to show up and get the job done. January babies share the responsible nature of Capricorn and the loyalty of Aquarius. Sure, January might have Aquarius-like moments where they want to break free and do whatever. Ultimately, their humanitarian spirit and accountable attitude wins out. January-born want to build lasting connections and success, so they will do whatever it takes to get there. They will be unwaveringly focused on completing their goals. January won’t be afraid to work hard on creating and maintaining meaningful, long-term connections. Between their steadiness and reliability, January is known for their trustworthiness.
AugustTried and true people have birthdays in August. These individuals can thank steadfast Leo and hardworking Virgo for their dedicated spirits. August-born take immense pride in their ability to be an outstanding friend, secure partner, and accountable colleague. Their pride fuels their steadfastness, which is then channeled into their work ethic. August stops at nothing to improve their relationships, as well as their obligations and arrangements. Their commitments and connections are a reflection of themselves. Having strong relationships and obvious loyalty in their arrangements keeps August devoted to continuing their endeavors.
NovemberSomeone in November will expect the world in exchange for their faithfulness. November-born are co-ruled by transformative, possessive Scorpio and explorative, expensive Sagittarius. These individuals take their relationships and obligations to heart. They will stop at nothing to invest and transform whatever they’re committed to. Whether it’s improving a partnership or uplifting an obligation, November-born will push for greatness. Although they bring a lot of pressure, November can be counted on to follow through thanks to their unwavering devotion. Just know that November expects their dedication to transpire into something greater.
SeptemberBeing born in September means taking great care of commitments and relationships. September’s cosmically ordained devotion is thanks to altruistic Virgo and commitment-oriented Libra. September’s Virgoan characteristics speak to being helpful and dutiful, and their Libran traits encourage them to prioritize commitments and relationships. As expected, all September-born will work tirelessly to uphold their partnerships and arrangements. They can be counted on to be a loyal, devoted companion. However, these individuals might be faithful due to anxiety and fear of disrupting the peace as opposed to being steadfast out of love. Still, loyalty is loyalty.
AprilApril is surprisingly more loyal than expected. This birth month’s cosmic combination of warrior Aries and steady Taurus suggests that April-born will put effort into their relationships and obligations. People born during April will give someone or something all of their might. They will spare no energetic expense to make a connection, goal, or obligation work. Having a fighting attitude fuels their devotion, so they won’t walk away without putting up a good fight first. However, April won’t hesitate to end something once they know they’ve given a connection or arrangement all they’ve got.
MarchShould they stay or should they go? This question often pops up for March-born, since these people are a mix of idealistic Pisces and assertive Aries. On the one hand, March will devote love and empathy to make something work. They will try their best to see the positives of a person or situation. On the other hand, March will also feel the fire of annoyance and frustration burning within them when there’s zero improvement in a situation or relationship. People with this birth month will stay longer than expected, but they will also leave once their anger outweighs their devotion.
FebruaryPeople born in February aren’t as loyal as they’d like to be, given that they’re co-ruled by freedom-loving Aquarius and fantastical Pisces. February-born might idolize someone or something to the point of becoming committed. It’s not unusual for these individuals to romanticize a situation, person, or arrangement. Although they hope to find something worthwhile and profound in their commitments or partnerships, February will end things once the spell breaks. Know that it’s over the moment February takes off their rose-colored glasses. Unfortunately, February struggles communicating why they’re backing out, which leaves the other party in the dark.
MayWhy be tied down? All May-born often wonder this, because they’re a combination of value-oriented Taurus and unpredictable Gemini. May has great potential to be devoted, but only if there’s something in it for them. People with this birth month don’t readily commit to a person, obligation, or goal unless they’re one hundred percent sure it will be worthwhile. As a result, they hesitate to commit to new relationships or arrangements for fear of wasting their precious time and resources. Even if they are committed, May will end things before something even starts if it means avoiding unnecessary burnout and boredom.

JuneJune isn’t as devoted as expected, thanks to being co-ruled by changeable Gemini and fickle Cancer. The cosmic mix of June speaks to being wishy-washy when it comes to commitment. June-born might be initially enthralled by the idea of a new relationship or opportunity, but their excitement dies when it’s time to actually commit. They’re not all-in, because they struggle with the responsibility and investment a commitment or relationship demands. Haphazardly backing out at the last minute doesn’t look good, but June would rather be free than trapped in something they’re not excited about.
FURTHER: The 4 Most Endearing Birth Dates
DecemberUnfortunately, one birth month had to be last and this goes to December. Those born in December are a mix of changeable Sagittarius and success-driven Capricorn. All December-born are initially loyal to a cause, commitment, or relationship; however, they will move on from someone or something that’s proving to be more work than what it's worth. December-born are picky about who or what they devote time, energy, and resources to. If something isn’t proving to be a good source of energy and attention, December will pull back. Try not to take it personally—it’s just business for December.

Disney Just Partnered With Brooks for the Cutest Race Day Sneakers, but They’re Already Selling Out on eBay
Parade aims to feature only the best products and services. If you buy something via one of our links, we may earn a commission.
If you’ve ever clocked a 20,000-step day at Disney, you know the "best park shoe" debate almost always ends with one name: Brooks. But if you were hoping to snag the brand’s latest Disney x Brooks Springtime Surprise collection at retail prices, the window has officially closed. The 2026 runDisney Expo wrapped last week, and these limited-edition kicks have moved straight to the secondary market—where real-time prices are already topping $300 for the most coveted pairs.
For the uninitiated, paying double for a running shoe might seem wild, but for the Disney community, these aren't just sneakers; they are highly engineered survival gear. As Heather Thomas from WDW Prep Schoolrecently noted, finding a shoe that can handle that 20,000-step daily average is critical: "The Brooks Ghost is well known for its neutral cushioning. They are supportive but not stiff. They are the 'Goldilocks' of walking shoes and just right for almost everyone." It's that kind of track record that makes these limited drops "hot" the second they hit the floor.

Here is the current state of the resale market for the "Friendship" collection:
- Genie Glycerin 23: This is the heavyweight champion of the drop. Inspired by the magic lamp with a metallic gold outsole and a tiny Genie hidden on the heel, it’s Brooks’ premier cushion model. On eBay, new pairs are currently listed between $280 and $300.
- Tigger & Pooh Ghost 17: These are asymmetrical and adorable, with Tigger on the left and Pooh on the right. Because of the unique design, they are a high-demand collector's item, currently trending around $399.99 on resale sites.
- Chip 'n' Dale Ghost 17: Offering a nod to the mischievous duo with black and red stitching to represent the pair, these are slightly more "accessible" but still holding strong at roughly $225-299 on the secondary market.
- Mickey Mouse Ghost 17: A returning fan-favorite featuring 3D details like a tufted Mickey silhouette on the heel, these are still fetching a premium of about $200+ depending on the size.
If you’re ready to bite the bullet and pay the "Disney tax" to save your feet, I recommend heading to eBay and filtering strictly for the "Authenticity Guarantee." While you might see these shoes on sites like StockX for slightly lower starting bids, I’m generally hesitant to recommend them for this specific drop. On StockX, you can't see real-time photos of the actual pair you are buying, and with asymmetrical designs like the Tigger/Pooh pair, you want to verify the placement and condition of those character details yourself.

By sticking to eBay’s verified listings, you get third-party inspection and the peace of mind that your $300 investment is the real deal. For the 20,000-step crowd who wants that perfect mix of "Disney Adult" style and marathon-level support, it’s a steep price to pay—but your arches will definitely thank you by the time the fireworks start at Magic Kingdom.
If you want to avoid the $300 resale trap next time, your best move is to head over to the Brooks runDisney hub and sign up for alerts so you can snag them at retail the second they drop.

Viral Musical Based on ‘The Odyssey’ to Become an Animated Movie With the Help of Jerry Bruckheimer
Homer has become the center of Hollywood lately.
With Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey set to release this July, the 2,700-year-old beloved piece of Greek literature has been getting some extra attention lately. But long before Nolan’s film was announced, Jorge Rivera-Herrans was working on Epic: The Musical.
Featuring vocalists like Mason Olshavsky and Troy Doherty, Epic has just been picked up by the producer of Top Gun and Pirates of the Caribbean, Jerry Bruckheimer, to become an animated movie.
Rivera-Herrans’ concept album follows Odysseus as he battles a cyclops, finds the land of the Lotus eaters, and gets trapped on Calypso’s island. Epic takes a new approach to the classic story, which gained the attention of millennials and Gen Z-ers on TikTok.
As Rivera-Herrans began posting about his creative process for the musical on TikTok in 2021, his audience started to grow. By the time the musical sagas started to release in 2022, some of the EPs became No. 1 on iTunes.
In 2023, Rivera-Herrans signed with Kevin Weaver’s Atlantic Music Group, which helped with physical product and merchandising. Weaver recently worked with Bruckheimer on F1: The Album, based on the film, which grossed over $634 million worldwide.
“The truth is, I am completely speechless, and I am completely over the moon,” Rivera-Herrans said in an Instagram video announcing the upcoming movie. “Today, a huge announcement was made, and I just wanted to take a second to express my gratitude for all of you. … I can’t believe how far we’ve come, and I’m so thankful for every single one of you for believing in me.”
View this post on InstagramFans quickly took to Rivera-Herrans’ comment section to express their excitement for the movie.
“So well deserved,” one user commented on Instagram. “thank you for creating something that has brought along some of the best memories and people of my young adult life. you, your passion & the culmination of all that are so loved.”
“OMG, I’m crying,” another fan commented. “This is so so amazing.”
Olshavsky also commented on the post, saying, “I SEE SUCCESSSSSSS👀👀 YESS JORGE IM SO PROUD OF YOU NO ONE IS MORE DESERVING! So much love bro.”
While a release date hasn’t been set for the upcoming animated movie, Rivera-Herrans is continuing to release merchandise based on Epic. Winion (Lotus Eater) plushies will be released on April 24. Watch Rivera-Herrans’ recent video for more information:
View this post on InstagramThis Pheromone Perfume Is the 'Real Deal,' Fragrance Expert Raves
Parade aims to feature only the best products and services. If you buy something via one of our links, we may earn a commission.
You've probably seen "pheromone perfume" for women all over your social media feeds lately, promising to make you irresistibly magnetic to every person in the room. Before you write it off as a gimmick—or before you fall for every hype-fueled TikTok claim (join the club!)—it helps to understand what these fragrances actually are and what they can realistically do.
Unlike your classic floral or gourmand scents that are engineered purely to smell beautiful, pheromone perfumes are designed with a different goal entirely: to work beneath the surface of traditional fragrance and tap into something a little more primal. The concept has been around for decades, but advances in synthetic chemistry have pushed it firmly into the mainstream conversation.
The science is genuinely fascinating (if more nuanced than the marketing would have you believe)! Humans do respond to chemical signals, and certain synthetic molecules can mimic those responses in ways that feel magnetic, warm and deeply personal. The result isn't a love potion. It's something more interesting: an amplifier that makes your natural chemistry work harder for you. Think less "spell" and more "confidence you can spritz on." Sounds intoxicating!
The world of luxury fragrance is full of options promising magnetic pull, but pheromone perfumes operate in their own category—somewhere between science and sensation. To cut through the noise, we talked to Savannah Britt, founder of The Fragrance Affair, a luxury perfume bar that specializes in bespoke scent experiences, about how these fragrances actually work, what ingredients make them effective and which 12 are genuinely worth your money—including the one she calls the "real deal."

What Is a Pheromone Perfume?A pheromone perfume isn't just a regular fragrance with provocative marketing. According to Britt, these formulas use synthetic molecules engineered to mirror the body's innate chemical cues—and that distinction matters.
"Traditional fragrances are designed to be smelled, but pheromone perfumes are designed to be felt," she says. "By using synthetic versions of the body's natural signals, they bypass the usual scent experience and tap straight into the subconscious."
While a classic fragrance announces itself—the moment someone walks into a room trailing a bouquet of flowers—a pheromone perfume operates differently. It's less about projection and more about pull.

Yes, but not in the way the marketing suggests. Britt is clear that these work best as an "amplifier," not a spell. She traces her own conversion to the category back to the first time she encountered Le Labo's Another 13. The scent subtly amplified “personal magnetism” in a way she couldn't quite name.
"It smelled so good that it almost didn't smell like a perfume," she recalls. "It had this 'halo effect' about it that just awakened you."
The most persistent myth is that pheromone perfumes make strangers fall for you on the spot. They don't. What they do, Britt explains, is take the edge off and make you appear more approachable, and that's not nothing!
"Perfume in general can echo an aura anywhere you go," she says. A pheromone-forward formula just turns that aura up a notch.

What Ingredients Are Used in Pheromone Perfumes?In the fragrance world, "pheromone" functions almost as a catchall for any ingredient that creates a magnetic, skin-like quality. Britt's personal favorites are White Musk, Ambroxan and Iso E Super, and she's seen the pull of these notes firsthand at The Fragrance Affair. She describes White Musk as "that skin-like touch that doesn't make a perfume so robust and literal. It makes it feel more lived in."
These molecules aren't just buzzwords. Ambroxan—derived from ambergris—is responsible for that addictive, radiant quality in fragrances like Dior Sauvage. Iso E Super, a synthetic cedar molecule, creates a subtle woody halo that seems to shift with your body heat. The result across all three is a fragrance that feels less like something you applied and more like something you simply emanate.

How To Choose the Best Pheromone Perfume for YouBlind-buying is risky here. Body chemistry is wildly individual, and the same fragrance can smell completely different on two people. That’s why Britt always recommends testing on skin first. She also makes an interesting point about where the pheromone note actually lives in a formula.
"Sometimes it's not about the pheromone note being the base note in the perfume," she says. "Often, it's that little cherry on top that brings it all together and gives the fragrance an underlying sensory depth."
Scent profile matters too. If you gravitate toward clean, fresh everyday fragrances, a skin-musk like Dedcool Xtra Milk or Le Labo Santal 33 is a natural entry point. If you want something with more presence and dark magnetism, Another 13 or Prague Nights delivers that quality in full force.
Related: A Perfumer Says This Is the Best Place To Apply Fragrance
How To Apply Pheromone Perfume for the Best ResultsBritt's personal layering routine has three steps: perfume oil on the pulse points first, then a generous body mist from head to toe, then the perfume itself applied to both skin and clothing. Why? Well, the logic is pretty easy to follow.
"Pheromone perfumes sync up with your skin's natural oils to create a scent that actually gets better as the hours go by," she explains.
Pulse points—wrists, chest, behind the ears—matter because the warmth of those areas activates the fragrance and helps it radiate. And if you want maximum staying power, moisturizing before application makes a real difference by giving the fragrance something to hold onto.

"It smelled so good that it almost didn't smell like a perfume," she says. The musky, slightly animalic composition is magnetic in a way that becomes completely personal on your skin, making it different on everyone who wears it. Modern, mysterious and worth every penny.
Best for Everyday Wear: The Fragrance Affair Brickell Balconies, $70The Fragrance Affair

Best Long-Lasting: Dedcool Xtra Milk, $90Dedcool

Xtra Milk is a lactonic, pheromone-heavy embrace that reads as "your skin, but significantly better"—clean white tee warmed by the sun energy, with a lingering musky hug that never turns sharp or synthetic. The staying power is serious, making it worth the investment for anyone who hates reapplying throughout the day.
Best Affordable: Maison Alhambra Monocline 01, $30Gift Express
Shop It at Gift ExpressA budget-friendly entry into pheromone-forward fragrance that punches well above its price point. Monocline 01 leans into Iso E Super—that shapeshifting molecule that fluctuates between velvety cedarwood and clean skin depending on your body chemistry. The result is a shapeshifting aura that smells expensive, minimal and genuinely interesting.
Best Luxury: Mugler Alien Goddess Intense, $150 Shop It at SephoraA creamy, sun-drenched wrap of ambered jasmine and toasted coconut that feels like fireworks on a private island. The Intense flanker deepens the original's warmth with a richness that lasts all day, then some.

Best Subtle: Al-Rehab Choco Musk, $10Amazon
Shop It on AmazonDon't let the price fool you—this is a cult favorite for a reason. A nostalgic, sugar-spun cloud of milk chocolate, toasted marshmallow and creamy vanilla, Choco Musk is the softest possible introduction to pheromone fragrances. It stays close and warm throughout the day, never projecting aggressively, which makes it ideal for anyone who wants the effect without the announcement.
Best Musky: Le Monde Gourmand Fleur De Blonde, $21ULTA
Shop It at UltaA cozy "clean girl" staple that captures the airy sweetness of a cashmere sweater—powdery violet and blonde woods with serious staying power. If you want something that reads as effortlessly chic and smells like laundered luxury, this is the one. It's the fragrance equivalent of looking like you woke up like this.
Best for Layering: Ariana Grande Cloud, $72Amazon
A modern cult classic with a genuinely useful superpower: Cloud plays beautifully with other fragrances, floating between fluffy marshmallow sweetness and a sophisticated molecular musk that acts as the perfect base. Layer it underneath something darker and warmer and you'll get a completely new scent experience. Its softness never competes—it only elevates.
Beast Mode: The Fragrance Affair Prague Nights, $70The Fragrance Affair
Shop It at The Fragrance AffairThis is the one you reach for when you want to walk into a room and own it. Britt created Prague Nights herself, and she describes it as a scent for "the woman who walks into the lobby bar smelling like good trouble"—a dark, magnetic fusion of tart berries and salty ambergris grounded in deep, shadowy woods and skin-hugging musk. It's bold, confident and leaves an impression long after you've left.
Best Fresh/Clean: Le Labo Santal 33, $110Le Labo
Shop It at Le LaboAn icon for a reason. Santal 33 is a dry, smoky fusion of papyrus and leathery sandalwood that captures the atmospheric heat of an open fire and desert air. The pheromone quality here comes from its uncanny ability to read as skin—warm, clean, lived-in skin that pulls people closer. Fresh without being sharp, woody without being heavy.
Best Fruity Musk: Lattafa Ana Abidyedh Coral, $18Amazon
Shop It on AmazonA bright, tropical burst of berries and salt-tinged ambergris that smells like expensive, sun-kissed skin at a beach club. Playful and warm at the same time, with just enough musk underneath to give it that magnetic, hard-to-define quality. At this price point, it's one of the best-kept secrets in the pheromone fragrance space.
Best Gourmand: Kayali Yum Boujee Marshmallow, $150Sephora
Shop It at SephoraIrresistible in the most literal sense. A sugary fluff of strawberry marshmallow grounded by musk mallow and a bright lemon note, Boujee Marshmallow is what happens when a gourmand fragrance actually has depth. The musk mallow is the super key; it keeps the sweetness from tipping into candy territory and anchors everything in something warm and personal.

Drew Barrymore’s Daughter Frankie Is Absolutely Adorable on Her 12th Birthday
Drew Barrymore's daughter Frankie is absolutely adorable on her 12th birthday.
The beloved actress and TV host, 51, who rose to superstardom as a child actor in films like Irreconcilable Differences and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, became a Hollywood heavyweight during her comeback in the ’90s when she starred in films like Poison Ivy, Boys on the Side, and Scream. These days, the mom of two daughters is the host of The Drew Barrymore Show, a popular chat show that welcomes some of the biggest stars in the world. Her ex-husband, Will Kopelman, took to Instagram to celebrate their younger daughter's 12th birthday with a series of sweet photos of the girl as she has grown up. With her Bernese Mountain Dog by her side, Frankie looks elated to hit the big 12.
"The tradition continues…HAPPY BDAY FRANKIE!!! They bloom for you kid 🌸🩷," Kopelman captioned the photos, which show his daughter under the blooming trees in the park.
View this post on Instagram When Did Barrymore and Kopelman Get Divorced?Barrymore and Kopelman divorced in 2016 after four years of marriage, PEOPLE reported. Kopelman married Alexandra Michler, director of fashion development for Vogue, in August 2021. The couple has since welcomed two sons: Hugh and John.
What Has Drew Barrymore Said About Aging?While Barrymore is more proud than ever of her two daughters, Olive and Frankie, she's also been very open about her own aging journey.
“Aging is a privilege that I will never take for granted,” Barrymore captioned a recent video, which showed the star glancing in the bathroom mirror and zooming in on the wrinkles on her face. She mouthed expressions of joy and exasperation, which are often hard to find on stars who overdo it with injectables like Botox and fillers.
“Aging is a privilege. It is not something to fear,” read the text written on the video.
View this post on Instagram Reflecting on the Hardest Decades of Her LifeWhile Barrymore’s posts about aging are positive, she’s also weathered plenty of hard times. This fall, on an episode of The Drew Barrymore Show, Barrymore reflected on some of her most difficult moments with guest Matthew McConaughey.
“From 10 to 20 was the hardest decade of my life. I made a lot of mistakes. I had to pick myself back up. It was messy as can be. It’s my favorite decade,” she recalled.
“Forty to 50 was also when I didn’t think it could get any harder than that,” she said. “And a lot of things happened in my life — especially once kids are involved — I was like, ‘Oh, there is room under bottom. A whole bunch of it! And I just found it.’”
While she didn’t get too descriptive, Entertainment Weekly surmised that Barrymore was referring to her split from Kopelman in 2016, when she was 41.
Despite the hardships, Barrymore came out the other end much stronger.
“I put in a decade of self-improvement, self-awareness, and radical changes,” she said. “So all this work led up to, ‘Oh my god, time is our most precious commodity.’”
35-Year-Old Mall Retailer Closes 62 Stores Across the United States
In September 1990, a tiny retailer opened its doors in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Originally the beauty line for Express, Bath & Body Works eventually expanded to become a mall staple across the United States, Canada, and other international locations.
With a rotating cast of seasonal fragrances in beauty and home, including its beloved candle line, Bath & Body Works has racked up a cult following over its 35-year history, but as consumer habits shift away from brick-and-mortar and towards online shopping, the brand has had to shift its strategy to keep up with demand.

Masslive reports that the bulk of those closures were in mall-based locations, and that the brand’s new store openings, including 21 in the fourth quarter, primarily took place in off-mall locations. In total, Bath & Body Works opened 94 new stores in the United States, 70 international stores, and four international travel retail stores in fiscal year 2025.

Kylie Kelce’s Western-Themed Film Debut With Jason Kelce Is a Treat for Fans
Fan-favorite Philadelphia couple Jason Kelceand Kylie Kelcehave just starred together in Garage Beer's latest (16-minute) feature film, The Last True Cold One, marking Kylie Kelce's film debut and the introduction of Garage Beer's new bottles.
The western-themed short flick centers on Jason Kelce's character, also called Jason Kelce, going on the hunt for an ice cold beer, with seemingly none to be found. On his quest, he encounters the town sheriff, Ms. Kylie (played by Kylie Kelce herself), who has a delightfully thick Delco accent, at one point declaring, "Youse all deserve cold beer."
In the end, it seems as though real-life husband and wife are about to find love on screen as well, although Jason ultimately pushes Kylie out of the way, opting instead for a cold Garage Beer bottle.
Garage Beer
Kelce, who played center for the Philadelphia Eagles NFL team until his retirement in 2024, was joined on screen by another Eagles alum, Beau Allen, who was the defensive tackle and nose tackle for the Birds from 2014 to 2017. In The Last True Cold One, Allen plays a villain who is keeping others from getting cold beer. However, villains never prosper, as the saying goes, and Kylie unceremoniously shoots Beau towards the film's end.
Kelce is the co-owner of Garage Beer alongside his brother and fellow football star Travis Kelce. Although Travis doesn't make an appearance in the film, he does get a cheeky shoutout, as the horse Jason is sitting with at the beginning of the video is named Travis. Films are also now a family affair, given that Travis Kelce has had several on-screen appearances, including, recently, in Happy Gilmore 2 opposite Adam Sandler.
The Last True Cold One is the third film that Garage Beer has put out, following The Final Brewmite and Thermal Buzz.
How Did Oprah Lose Weight? Inside the TV Icon's Health Journey
Oprah Winfrey’s weight loss transformation made headlines in recent years, but shedding some pounds wasn’t just about her appearance; it was about redefining wellness on her own terms.
From the intense public scrutiny she faced to her surprising revelations about her weight loss journey, the media mogul has remained open about her evolving story.
Oprah Winfrey’s Weight Loss JourneyDuring the pandemic period and its aftermath, the award-winning host experienced health issues involving her knee.
She revealed in 2022 that she had undergone double knee surgery in 2021, the first in August, followed by another in November.
"When I came home the first time, I literally could not lift my leg,” she mentioned in her digital magazine, Oprah Daily, adding “I couldn't lift my heel off of the bed, and I vowed if I was ever able to get up, walk around, and move again — that I would take advantage of movement, exercise, and of being able to be fully in my body."
Despite the setback, this sparked her journey toward better health.

“There is a sense of knowing that there isn’t as much time left and I am at peace with that knowing,” she revealed during her guest appearance on Al Roker's 70th birthday on Today. “There’s a sense of urgency for me about living well.”
At the time, she felt a renewed sense of freedom and comfort in her body after years of being overweight, which had limited her physically and contributed to her knee issues.
In 2023, the public saw a subtle change in Oprah's appearance and she later opened up about using medication as part of her holistic wellness routine.
"The fact that there's a medically approved prescription for managing weight and staying healthier, in my lifetime, feels like relief, like redemption, like a gift," she told People in an exclusive interview.
At the time, she opted not to name the specific drug but mentioned that it served as a “maintenance tool” to help manage her weight.
However, her revelation sparked unexpected backlash after not disclosing the specific type of medication she used. The public widely believed it was a GLP-1 agonist like Ozempic or Wegovy.
In December 2025, the 20-time Daytime Emmy winner opened up about her GLP-1 weight loss medication, which she had taken but briefly stopped in early 2024 to "beat the medication” but resumed after gaining 20 pounds in one year, as cited by People.
According to her, she no longer sees weight loss as a short-term goal but as an ongoing lifelong process, as mentioned in her new book with obesity expert Dr. Ania M. Jastreboff, Enough: Your Health, Your Weight and What It’s Like to Be Free. “I feel more alive and more vibrant than I’ve ever been.”

Who Are Tom Hanks' Kids? Meet the Family Following in Dad's Entertaining Footsteps
Tom Hanks is one of the most revered actors in Hollywood, loved by fans and colleagues alike. But when he’s not acting and producing some of our favorite movies, he’s spending time with his wife and kids, because Hanks is a family man through and through.
“A man is blessed with a family sitting down front like that,” he said in a teary-eyed speech at the Golden Globes. “A wife who is fantastic in every way, who has taught me what love is. Kids who are braver and stronger and wiser than their old man is. I can’t tell you how much your love means to me.”
So who are the kids the Phoenician Scheme actor speaks so highly of—and has he shared the silver screen with any of them? Here’s everything we know about Tom Hanks’ kids.

Tom Hanks has four kids—two with his first wife, the late Samantha Lewes (Colin and Elizabeth),and two with his current wife Rita Wilson (Chester “Chet” and Truman). Colin was born in 1977, Elizabeth in 1982, Chet in 1990 and Truman in 1995.
“My son Colin was born when I was very young. As well as my daughter, but that means we have this gestalt understanding because they remember when their dad was just a guy trying to, you know, make the rent. My other kids, they were born after I had established a beachhead in every way. And so their lives were just different,” Hanks told The New York Times.

Hanks shared Colin and Elizabeth with his late wife Lewes, whose real name was Susan Dillingham. The Toy Story actor married his college sweetheart in 1978, shortly after they’d welcomed their first child Colin. Elizabeth was born in 1982, and the couple divorced five years later in 1987. Lewes died in 2002 of bone cancer.
Elizabeth wrote a 2025 memoir titled The 10: A Memoir of Family and the Open Road, in which she recounts a six-month-long road trip she took on Interstate 10 to find answers about her mother's past. In the book, Elizabeth, who goes by E.A., describes years of her childhood "filled with confusion, violence, deprivation, and love" while living with her mother in Sacramento after her parents' divorce. She believes her mother had undiagnosed bipolar disorder.
"Saying that my mother was mentally ill," E.A. wrote, "that she was possibly 'bipolar with episodes of extreme paranoia and delusion,' makes sense of the nights sitting with her on a blanket in the driveway, my mother sobbing and convinced there were men inside the house, bugging the walls, waiting for us in our bedrooms."
Eventually, E.A. wrote, her mother's "emotional violence became physical violence." E.A. later made her father aware of the abuse, which led to Hanks gaining primary custody of E.A. and Colin.
Rita Wilson Tom Hanks and his wife Rita WilsonHanks met his now-wife Rita Wilson on the set of Bosom Buddies (1980–1982)while he was still married to Lewes. The pair spent more time together on the set of Volunteers (1985), but it wasn’t until three years later that they would tie the knot. A year after Hanks’ divorce from Lewes, he married Wilson in 1988.
The couple welcomed their first child, Chet, in 1990 and their second son, Truman, in 1995.
How old was Tom Hanks when he had his first kid?Hanks had his first child and got married at the young age of 21, while he was still trying to break into Hollywood.
He has shared his initial fears about being a dad so young, but over the years, he’s learned that parenting is about the simple things.
“All that most parents hope is that their children are happy, funny, well adjusted, and have a passion for something in their lives," he toldOprah Winfrey. "What would negate everything is if the next generation that we're responsible for has a passionless existence. And that's cause for occasional sleepless nights.”

Tom Hanks has four children: Colin, Elizabeth, Chet and Truman.

Colin is the oldest child of Hanks and Lewes. His birthday is Nov. 24, 1977. Colin was the first to follow in his father’s footsteps, becoming an Emmy Award-winning actor, director and producer. You’ve likely seen him in King Kong (2005), The House Bunny (2008), Dexter (2011), the Jumanji movies and The Offer (2022)—and you’ll know him when you see him because he bears a striking resemblance to his father.
“When I was starting off, I was sort of lovingly naive, thinking that [being the son of Tom Hanks] wasn’t as big a deal as it is, that I would get the benefit of the doubt that I was my own person, and that doesn’t happen,” Colin told Dax Shepard on Armchair Expert.
Colin briefly owned a handkerchief company called Hanks Kerchiefs. The company went out of business in 2023.
He married former publicist Samantha Bryant in 2010. The couple shares two daughters, Olivia, born in 2011, and Charlotte, born in 2013.
Elizabeth Hanks View this post on InstagramElizabeth is the second child of Hanks and Lewes. Her birthday is May 17, 1982. Elizabeth goes by the professional name E.A. Hanks, which she uses for articles, essays and her memoir.
Elizabeth has written for Vanity Fair, The Huffington Post, The Guardian, Time Magazine and The New York Times. Her memoir, The 10: A Memoir of Family and the Open Road, was published in April 2025.
Despite not pursuing acting full-time, Elizabeth isn’t a stranger to the screen. She has a few acting credits herself, including background acting in Forrest Gump (1994) and That Thing You Do! (1996) and voiceover work in Big City Greens (2019–2022).
Chet HanksChester (Chet) is the oldest child of Hanks and Wilson. His birthday is Aug. 4, 1990. He is both an actor and singer/songwriter, where he has gone by the professional name “Chet Haze” and, more recently, “Chet Hanx.”
Chet’s most notable onscreen appearances include Fantastic Four (2015), Shameless (2016–2018), Empire (2018–2019) and Your Honor (2020–2023). He has also acted alongside his dad in Greyhound (2020), and his song “White Boy Summer” is featured in Hanks’ movie A Man Called Otto (2022). He currently has a recurring role on Netflix's sports comedy series Running Point.
In his spare time, Chet runs a personal training business called HanxFit Club.
Chet has spoken about growing up with famous parents and the privilege that he experienced.
“Fame is the most powerful drug known to man. My experience is even more complicated because, on top of fame already being toxic, I wasn’t even famous. I was just the son of somebody famous, I hadn’t even done anything to deserve any sort of recognition, and that created a lot of contempt,” he said in a now-private YouTube video.
Along with his parental struggles, Chet previously went to rehab in 2014 for substance abuse that he’d been dealing with since he was 16 years old. He says his daughter Michaiah, whom he shares with his ex Tiffany Miles, is the reason he “turned [his] life around and got sober.”
Truman HanksDia Dipasupil/Getty Images
Truman is Hanks’ youngest child, whom he shares with Wilson. His birthday is Dec. 26, 1995. Truman did not start his film career as an actor. He’s primarily worked on production crews, but he has recently stepped onto the screen in two films with his father.
He was featured in News of the World (2020)and A Man Called Otto, where he plays a young Otto (Hanks’ character). Truman has also worked on crews for Black Widow (2021), Atypical (2021), West Side Story (2021), Hanks’ 2023 film Asteroid City and the TV series Succession and Fallout.

All of Hanks’ kids have dabbled in acting, but Colin is the only one who has pursued the career full-time.
Chet has been featured in a few television roles, but he’s also a singer/songwriter—and two of his songs have been included in mainstream media, including A Man Called Otto and Empire.
Truman is breaking into acting, but he’s mainly known for his production crew roles. His biggest role has been playing young Hanks in A Man Called Otto.
After Hanks, Chet, Truman and Wilson, who produced the film along with Hanks, all worked on A Man Called Otto, it brought into question where nepotism plays a role in the Hanks family. However, Hanks vehemently denies that his sons are nepo babies.
“Look, this is a family business,” Hanks said. “This is what we’ve been doing forever. It’s what all of our kids grew up in. If we were a plumbing supply business or if we ran the florist shop down the street, the whole family would be putting in time at some point, even if it was just inventory at the end of the year.”
Even Elizabeth, who is not necessarily in the Hollywood world, has acted in some of her father’s movies and done voice work.
What do Tom Hanks' kids do?While most of Hanks’ kids are actors or fall somewhere in the entertainment realm, they all have other gigs besides onscreen roles.
- Colin is a director and producer who recently produced the John Candy: I Like Me documentary alongside Ryan Reynolds, who was also producing.
- Elizabeth is a writer who has held bylines in HuffPost, Vanity Fair, The Guardian and more. Her memoir, The 10, came out in April 2025.
- Chet is a singer/songwriter and a personal trainer at his company HanxFit Club.
- Truman is credited mainly in the Camera and Electrical Department of the production crew, where he has worked as a director of photography assistant, a first camera assistant and a loader.
The 69-year-old has three grandchildren, who are all girls. Colin Hanks has two daughters—Olivia, born in 2011, and Charlotte, born in 2013. Chet has one daughter, Michaiah, born in 2016.
Hanks and Wilson describe themselves as the “cool grandparents”—though not for the reason we all think they’re cool. In fact, Colin has said that his girls don’t really care that their grandfather is Tom Hanks.
“They’re aware of what he does for sure,” Colin told Us Weekly. “It’s just the same way they’re aware of what their father does for a living, but they don’t have really much interest in it…I mean, I wasn’t on Hannah Montana, so they don’t really have any interest in what I do.”
When Did Michael Jackson Leave The Jackson 5? All About The Famed Family Musical Act
The Jackson family is very much back in the spotlight (not that they ever really left) with the recent release of Michael, a new musical biopic centered on the talented clan’s most iconic member, pop superstarMichael Jackson. Directed by Antoine Fuqua, the biographical drama charts the life of the acclaimed American singer from his Indiana upbringing and Motown beginnings in the 1950s and ‘60s through to his record-breaking solo career in the late 1970s and ‘80s.
But a good chunk of the film, which hits theaters worldwide on Friday, April 24, revolves around the performer’s time with The Jackson 5, the family musical act managed by his father Joe Jackson and was originally comprised of Michael and his older siblings Jackie, Tito, Jermaine and Marlon Jackson. Though Michael’s thrilling individual success would ultimately eclipse those of his siblings (save maybe for his sister,Janet Jackson), The Jackson 5 were a huge deal in their own right: One of the best-selling musical acts of all time, the group sold over 150 million records worldwide and were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1997.
With Michael premiering this week, let’s take a look back at Jackson’s history with The Jackson 5, including the interpersonal drama therein and when and why Michael Jackson chose to depart the band.
When did The Jackson 5 start?The Jackson 5 began in 1964, when Jackson family patriarch Joe noticed third-eldest son Tito’s interest in music and skill with the guitar. He wrangled Jermaine and Jackie to join their sibling in a musical group; the older bros were later joined by tambourine-shaking Marlon and conga-playing Michael (then just five years old) in 1965.
Dubbed The Jackson 5 by talent agent Evelyn LaHaie, the band’s first stage performances took place at local talent shows and in school auditoriums, but they got a considerable bump up when they won the talent competition at New York’s famous Apollo Theater in August 1967. They signed with their first label, Steeltown Records, in November of that year. And the rest was music history!

The band of brothers saw their first four singles hit number one in 1970, when lead singer (and eventual King of Pop) Michael Jackson was only 12. What was The Jackson 5’s first song?The group’s debut single was "Big Boy," released via Steeltown Records in January 1968. However, it was as “I Want You Back,” their first single released after they signed with the iconic Motown Records in 1969, that would prove to be the brothers’ breakout hit. They would perform the enduring track during their national television debut on The Ed Sullivan Show that December.

What was The Jackson 5’s biggest hit?Though they put out many popular songs, including “ABC" (1970), "The Love You Save" (1970), and "Never Can Say Goodbye" (1971), the 1970 ballad "I'll Be There" is The Jackson 5’s biggest hit. At six million copies sold worldwide, it’s the group’s bestselling single and their fourth consecutive number one hit.

Why did The Jackson 5 break up?Ultimately, The Jackson 5 disbanded due to both desires for solo projects as well as creative frustration with Motown Records.
Both Michael and Jermaine Jackson had embarked on solo musical careers during The Jackson 5’s run, including MJ’s iconic records Off the Wall and Thriller, but after the group moved from Motown to Epic Records in 1976, Jermaine remained with Motown (he was then married to Hazel Gordy, the daughter of Motown founder Berry Gordy) and officially left the band. Younger brother Randy Jackson replaced him and the group continued under the stage name The Jacksons.
Michael announced his departure in 1984, with Marlon to follow soon thereafter in early ‘85. The remaining members went on indefinite hiatus in 1989, though various combinations of the brothers would reunite to perform together in the decades that followed.

(Photo by Michael Ochs Archives/Getty Images) When did Michael Jackson leave The Jackson 5?Following the stratospheric success of his albums Off the Wall and Thriller (the latter of which remains the best-selling album of all time, with estimated sales over 70 million worldwide), Michael formally exited The Jacksons (formerly known as The Jackson 5) in December 1984 after the final show of their Victory Tour on Los Angeles, California, as he wanted to focus on his solo career.
Which Jackson 5 brothers married the same woman?As if working alongside your siblings isn't hard enough, the Jacksons added some interpersonal drama to their The Jackson 5 tenure: Randy Jackson began dating Alejandra Genevieve Oaziaza in 1986 and later went on to have two children (Genevieve Jackson and Randy Jackson Jr.) with the singer. After the couple split, Oaziaza began dating Randy's brother and bandmate Jermaine Jackson, to whom she was wed from 1995 to 2003. The pair share two children, Jaafar Jackson — who plays Michael Jackson in the Michael biopic — and Jermajesty Jackson.

Which Jacksons are still alive?As of April 2026, seven of the ten Jackson siblings are still alive: Rebbie, Jackie, Jermaine, La Toya, Marlon, Randy and Janet. Of those, Jackie, Jermaine and Marlon were all original members of The Jacksons 5. Fellow band members Michael and Tito Jackson died in 2009 and 2024, respectively. (Brandon, another Jackson sibling and twin brother to Marlon, died shortly after birth in 1957.)

Eve Plumb Reveals Real-Life Davy Jones Connection Behind Iconic ‘Brady Bunch’ Episode
Eve Plumb is best known for playing middle child Jan Brady on The Brady Bunch. But the beloved actress once dreamed of becoming Mrs. Davy Jones. While promoting her 2026 memoir Happiness Included, Plumb, 67, looked back on her days on The Brady Bunch and reflected on “Getting Davy Jones,” one of the most iconic episodes of the 1970s sitcom.
The episode, which originally aired Dec. 10, 1971, on ABC, was about Marcia Brady’s (Maureen McCormick) desperate attempt to get the meet the Monkees heartthrob. But in real life, it was Plumb who had the inside connection.
“In my real life, my father had signed the Monkees to RCA in his job,” Plumb told the Pop Culture Preservation Society in a new interview. “And so I would go and listen to the Monkees record, and Davy Jones used to say, ‘Well you know I'm going to I'm going to marry you when you grow up.’”
Plumb reiterated that there was nothing creepy about Jones’s comment, noting it was “fine” at the time. She even dished that her pre-teen self didn’t rule out a future marriage to the “Daydream Believer” singer.
“You know, sort of like it seemed like a possibility,” she laughed. “You know, you don't know at 10 or 12, you don't know how your life is going to be. You have no, you know, you want to grow up, but there's no idea. There's nothing to draw on and think about what this might be like.”

Jones’s Brady Bunch episode is one of the most memorable from the series. While he had previously met Plumb through her father, in an interview posted on Pop Goes the Culture TV, the singer said he never “thought about” if the other Brady stars were fans of his music when he made the guest appearance. “I just tried to be natural when I talked to them as if I was just Davy Jones, this guy who was visiting,” he said.

Eve Plumb’s dad was a successful music producerPlumb’s father, Neely, was a record producer and A&R executive. In the 1960s, he helped discover the Carpenters after spotting them at a “Battle of the Bands” contest. In an interview with NPR, Richard Carpenter recalled his first meeting with the A& R man. “His name was Neely Plumb – P-L-U-M-B, and I knew that name anyway because … I looked for credits, songwriter credits, producers, all that stuff on records that I’d buy. …I knew his name. And he wanted to know if we were interested in recording.”
In the new interview, Plumb said of her father, “He signed the Jefferson Airplane, too. He was a very hip dad.”
Plumb noted that her father used to take out ads in Variety and The Hollywood Reporter, which he designed himself. “We did have some of them,” she added. “Some of them were saved, we may have sold some at auction.”

Adam Levine’s Recent Red Carpet Appearance Has Fans Asking ‘What Happened?'
Adam Levine and his wife, Behati Prinsloo, walked the red carpet at the 12th Breakthrough Prize Ceremony at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California, on April 18. The couple posed for photos, which were eventually posted on the internet. It didn't take long for fans to react to said photos, with many pointing out that Levine, 47, had a different look about him.

"Daaang, what happened here?" one person wrote, sharing a photo of a younger Levine with facial hair for comparison.
"I hope that's AI geez," someone else said.
"Are you sure it is him?" a third commenter asked.
"No facial hair like usual, and he’s getting older," a fourth X user added.
Levine hasn't addressed any of the online chatter about his looks and his recent Instagram photos haven't drawn as much attention as his red carpet appearance, though he does have comments limited.
The "Moves Like Jagger" singer made headlines earlier this month after he confirmed that he'd be returning for another season of The Voice.
"I will be back," he told People magazine. "I'm having so much fun doing it. Since I came back a few seasons ago it's just been a blast and I'm super happy to keep it going as long as they'll have me."
This will mark Levine's 19th season on the popular singing competition show.

Your Soul Lesson, Based on Your Birth Date
Every single soul incarnated on Earth came with a specific set of energies. This energetic package contains personal and karmic signatures that ultimately give way to one (or many) soul lessons. What’s tricky about understanding soul lessons is that they are often tied to a unique gift or talent we were born with. And as long as we are cultivating that gift, there’s a sense of reassurance of being on the right path towards evolution. It turns out that how we develop our natural talents is key and intimately tied to the fulfillment of our spiritual lesson in this incarnation. Read on to discover your soul lesson in this lifetime, according to your birth date.

Each Birth Date as a Soul LessonWhile there are many different ways to understand our soul’s journey, zooming in on our birth date can be enlightening. Read on to discover more, based on your birth date. Disregard birth months.
Born on the 1st, 10th, 19th, or 28th – Your Soul Lesson Is to Lead Without Becoming EgotisticalIt’s true—your birth date’s connection to the Sun does mean you were born to, in some form or another, shine. There is something about you that is special and stands out. And while it’s absolutely valid to bask in that glory, you must keep your ego in check. This is due to the shadow side of solar energy being arrogance and selfishness.

Allowing yourself to feel and taste the depth of it all without being tormented is key—and may even save you some dramatic headaches. In the end, tomorrow will always be a new day!

Born on the 3rd, 12th, 21st, or 30th – Your Soul Lesson Is to Live Life to the Fullest Without Falling Into ExcessLucky you for being born on a day ruled by the most fortunate planet of all. This probably shows up as fortune or even a blessing, inviting a passionate, larger-than-life approach to life. But because Jupiter is physically enormous, its effects may translate to some type of excess. Finding the middle ground between fun and “too much fun” is key for you.
Born on the 4th, 13th, 22nd, or 31st – Your Soul Lesson Is to Innovate Without Living in Constant DisruptionBeing born on a date ruled by Uranus means you’re a trendsetter in an area of your life. You were born to innovate, which often comes with the need to take drastic twists and turns. At times, this can feel like living on a constant edge—affecting not only you, but those in your inner circle. Finding comfort in normalcy benefits both your well-being and nervous system.

July Just Solved Our Biggest Carry-On Conundrum With Its Chic New Top-Load Suitcase
Parade aims to feature only the best products and services. If you buy something via one of our links, we may earn a commission.
We spend so much time obsessing over the logistics of a trip—from finding the perfect flight to narrowing down the best excursions—that we often overlook the one thing we interact with every single day: our luggage.
We might have a flawless itinerary, but the reality is that the physical act of packing has remained largely unchanged for decades. Most carry-ons are "clamshells"—they split down the middle, requiring you to clear off an entire bed or a massive patch of floor just to reach your toothbrush.
Enter the July Capsule Carry-On. Launching April 23, this bag is a departure from the status quo, replacing the split-open design with a top-down packing system. It’s the kind of "why didn't we think of this sooner?" innovation that makes travel noticeably more efficient.

July
Why the Top-Load Design WinsThe traditional carry-on is rarely designed for tight spaces. If you’re in a boutique hotel in London or a cruise ship cabin, opening a standard suitcase takes up the entire walking path. The Capsule opens like a door, allowing you to pack vertically and reach into the deep interior without flipping the whole bag over
The "Tech-Savvy" UpgradesBeyond the shape, July packed this bag with features that address actual travel frustrations:
- Built-in Tracking: It includes a TSA-compliant lock with integrated global tracking compatible with Apple Find My and Google Find My Device.
- Lockable Wheels: Ever had your bag roll away on a slanted train platform? The SilentMove Pro wheels actually lock to prevent movement on inclines.
- Magnetic Access: A "QuickGrab" magnetic pocket allows you to snag your passport or phone without fumbling with zippers in the security line.
- Massive Laptop Storage: The front pocket is expanded to fit devices up to 18 inches, which is a rarity for a carry-on.
At $395, it’s a premium investment, but for the traveler who prioritizes a "minimalist footprint," the space efficiency is hard to beat. It launches in five sophisticated colors—from Alpine Green to Dune Amber—and is built for the person who wants to stay organized without the 50/50 split struggle.

Remember Cereal Box Prizes? Kellogg’s Is Bringing Them Back for the First Time in Years
Kellogg's cereal is about to come with its own set of collectibles once again—just like the good 'ol days.
The fan-favorite cereal company teased the return of the Millennial-era ritual in October 2024 with a limited-time Squishmallows partnership and in 2021 with the limited launch of its collectible Bowl Buddies. Now, years later, it's doubling down on the nostalgic offer in a new collaboration with Disney that returns collectible toys and prizes to its cereal boxes for the first time in a long time.
"At Kellogg’s, there’s a real sense of childhood nostalgia tied to the moments families remember most–and breakfast is a big part of that," Laura Newman, vice president of brand marketing at WK Kellogg Co., shared in a statement. "Bringing toys back inside the box reintroduces that sense of discovery through a simple, screen-free moment of play that parents can now share with their own kids. Collaborating with Toy Story 5, which explores the role of toys in a tech-driven world, made this moment even more meaningful."
Kellogg's Is Putting Collectible Toys Back in Cereal BoxesAccording to the April 23 press release, the special-edition cereal boxes will bring back the joy of surprise toys nationwide across several of its brands, including Froot Loops, Frosted Flakes, Corn Pops, Apple Jacks, Frosted Mini-Wheats, Rice Krispies, Corn Flakes, and Cocoa Loops.

Each box will include a surprise toy, with options such as classic collectible figurines, spoons, trading cards, and movie-ticket promotions inspired by Toy Story 5.
"At the heart of Toy Story 5 is the idea that toys inspire creativity, friendship and play," Lylle Breier, executive vice president of partnerships, promotions, synergy and events at The Walt Disney Studio, added. "We are delighted to collaborate with Kellogg’s on their Toys Back in the Box campaign that gives families a fun way to explore the playful world of Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie and the gang.”

Kellogg's nostalgic promotion with Disney will be available at retailers nationwide beginning on Sunday, April 26, per Thursday's announcement—but only for a limited time, while supplies last (prices may vary).
Toy Story 5 releases exclusively in theaters on Friday, June 19.
