James Marsden looks happier than ever with his girlfriend, Frederique Brons, by his side.

The actor, 52, rose to stardom in films like The Notebook and 27 Dresses before scoring meatier roles in Westworld and Dead to Me. Navigating comedy in roles on 30 Rock and Modern Family, he showed he could do almost anything onscreen. More recently, he scored hits with series like Jury Duty and Your Friends and Neighbors. However, it also looks like he's found love in his personal life. Marsden was spotted with his model girlfriend walking hand in hand at the Dior Homme Menswear Spring/Summer 2027 show as part of Paris Fashion Week. Beaming, Brons looked stunning in a soft pinkish-white wrap dress. Marsden kept it casual in beige pants and a patterned top.

Marsden has a unique new colleague: His 25-year-old son, Jack. The duo stars in The Macallan's new “Drink of a Generation” campaign, which spotlights the whiskey's Sherry Oak 25 and 30 Years Old expressions.

In addition to Jack, Marsden has two other children. A daughter named Mary, 20, with his ex-wife, Lisa Linde, and William, 10, with his ex-girlfriend, Rose Costa, PEOPLE reported.

What's Next for James Marsden?

Marsden has a major new gig coming around the bend.

Last month, Variety reported that the actor is set to star in the thriller series Disavowed at Apple TV.

According to the official logline for the show, the series follows “legendary CIA Case Officer Brad Griffin (Marsden), who is abruptly fired in the middle of a global hunt for an elusive assassin responsible for killing his colleague. Disgraced and outcast from the world of intelligence, all bets are off when Brad decides to go after the 15 million dollar federal bounty on the assassin’s head.”

Seeing as Marsden has a successful track record at Apple with his role as Owen Ashe in Your Friends & Neighbors, it sounds like the studio wants to keep him on.

For me, strawberry shortcake conjures up visions of warm summer days, berry picking and the unmistakable nostalgic feeling of a life with minimal responsibilities—at least for a little while. It’s at once a dessert and a state of mind, signifying that summer has officially arrived.

Of course, much like the unpredictability of the season, sometimes strawberry shortcake can be good, and other times...not so much. Whether it’s because the berries weren’t fully ripe, the whipped cream didn’t hold up or the biscuit became soggy too soon, this is one of those desserts that’s either a knockout or it’s just meh. The good news? You don’t have to just settle for meh anymore. 

To find out how best to elevate this seasonal treat, we went straight to an expert and consulted David Leite, a three-time James Beard Award-winning food writer, cookbook author and publisher of the award-winning website Leite's Culinaria, for all the ways he makes strawberry shortcake the very best it can be. 

Read on for his tips, plus the common mistakes to avoid when making this fruit-filled dessert. Once you know how to properly make it and jazz it up, we have a feeling strawberry shortcake will become your signature summertime snack.

How To Make Strawberry Shortcake 10x Better, According to an Award-Winning Chef

According to Leite, the best way to make strawberry shortcake 10x better is his go-to move: the double stack. This trick elevates the dessert (literally) by adding height and visual interest to the iconic summer staple without requiring much additional effort.

“To get a towering, dramatically tall biscuit with effortless flaky layers, cut the dough into circles, brush the top side of one biscuit with milk [and] crown with a second before baking,” he tells Parade. 

Once your biscuits are done, place one on your plate, layer on your fruit and some whipped cream, and then top with the second double-stacked biscuit to create a showstopping masterpiece.

3 Other Chef-Approved Tips for Strawberry Shortcake

The double stack is a low-effort hack with maximum payoff, but it isn’t the only way Leite likes to put his own spin on strawberry shortcake. Here, Leite shares several other ways to upgrade the classic summer staple, and we’re definitely taking notes. 

1. Try different spices for fun flavors

Instead of keeping things one note and only going sweet, Leite says he likes to incorporate other spices into the mix to give the dessert a more complex and interesting flavor. “I always find the biscuits in the dessert to be bland. Just sugar. No contrast,” he says. “Adding hefty pinches of ground ginger and cinnamon to your dough changes the profile.”

If you want to add an unexpected boost to the berries, he also says he adds a few grinds of Aleppo pepper to the macerated strawberries for a moderately spicy kick.

2. Cut through the sweetness with a splash of vinegar

Leite also suggests amping up your macerating liquid by adding a splash of balsamic vinegar to make things interesting.

“Ditch the standard sugar-only maceration. Instead, toss strawberries with a tablespoon or two of good-quality balsamic vinegar and a 1/4 teaspoon of freshly cracked black pepper,” he says. “The pepper cuts the cloying sweetness, while the balsamic coaxes out a deep, complex syrup.” 

3. Add a hint of herbs for a summery shortcake

For an added bite, Leite recommends a dose of fresh summery herbs to give your strawberry shortcake another unexpected pop. “For an extra hit of summer, adding some thinly sliced basil leaves right before serving closes the deal,” he says.

3 Common Mistakes To Avoid

Now that you know how to make strawberry shortcake like an award-winning chef, here are some things you’ll want to avoid, according to Leite. 

1. Don’t twist your biscuit cutter

Although you can always use premade shortcake shells or sponge cake, if you’re making your own biscuits from scratch, you should avoid twisting your biscuit cutter. “If you twist the cutter, you pinch and seal the edges of the dough, which completely locks down the gluten and destroys the magnificent rise you're looking for,” Leite says.

2. Be mindful of maceration

Despite some recipes calling for you to macerate strawberries for a few hours or even overnight, Leite says when it comes to macerating berries, the shorter the better.

“Tossing the sliced berries in sugar sweetens them as well as creates all that luscious juice. But leave them too long, and you're fishing out flaccid little triangles of fruit,” he says. “I find 20 minutes, maybe 30, is perfect. None of this overnight chilling in the fridge.”

3. Skip store-bought whipped cream

This one might ruffle a few feathers, but while objectively there’s nothing wrong with Cool Whip or store-bought whipped cream from a can, if you’re going for a showstopping strawberry shortcake, it’s a good idea to make your own whipped cream.

Not only is it super easy, but it also tastes so much better. “A simple Chantilly cream made from heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla and a pinch of salt is all you need. It blows Cool Whip out of the water,” Leite says.

Final Takeaways for Strawberry Shortcake Success

At the end of the day, turning strawberry shortcake into a showstopper doesn’t have to be complicated. With a few simple tricks, you can make a delicious summer-ready dessert that’ll have your friends asking you for the recipe. Whether you do the double stack, spice it up or add in some fresh herbs, you can’t go wrong with any of these tips. And if you’ve got a genius strawberry shortcake tip of your own, feel free to share it in the comments!

Before anyone effectively figured out how to sell music on the internet, Aerosmith gave it away. On June 27, 1994, the Boston rock band and their label, Geffen Records, made history by releasing "Head First" as the first song by a major artist available exclusively as a digital download, and the music industry hasn't really been the same ever since.

The vehicle was CompuServe, one of America's first major internet service providers, which counted roughly two million subscribers at the time. Customers could type "GO AEROSMITH" into the CompuServe command line and receive a 4.3MB WAV file of the track, or a smaller mono version for those tight on storage. The song was free, and CompuServe waived its standard $9.60-an-hour connection fees for the duration of the download. Given the modem speeds of the era, that download still took 60 to 90 minutes, and around 10,000 people did exactly that within the first eight days the song was available.

The track itself was a leftover. "Head First" came from Aerosmith's sessions for 1993's Get a Grip and had only appeared previously as a B-side on the European release of "Eat the Rich." Selecting it was partly practical, as Geffen's technology team, led by Chief Technology Officer Jim Griffin, needed a short file. "It was proof of life for digital music," Griffin said years later. The legal questions were immediate and enormous. How would artists, labels, and songwriters get paid in a world of digital files? There was no clear answer in 1994. Griffin himself went from CTO to traveling the world explaining the revolution in digital music distribution.

Steven Tyler, for his part, seemed more interested in the larger technology of the moment than the paperwork details. "If our fans are out there driving down that information superhighway, then we want to be playing at the truck stop," he said at the time. "This is the future, so let's get it going." Bassist Tom Hamilton took it further, entering CompuServe chat rooms to speak directly with fans and occasionally correct misconceptions about Aerosmith lore.

The music industry around them was far more cautious. Major labels were still treating the internet as a threat to be managed rather than a channel to embrace. Geffen's Luke Wood later described the rationale simply. "We did it because it can be done and is cool and is fun," he said, though he acknowledged the harder question lurking underneath. "How do you collect copyright fees?" Within a few years, Napster would answer that question in a way that further disrupted the industry.

Thirty-two years later, the industry that "Head First" helped disrupt generates the vast majority of its revenue from digital streaming. What Aerosmith and Geffen were at the front of with a single WAV file and a 90-minute wait time now plays out billions of times a day, frictionlessly, in pockets around the world.

Wendy Makkena, who played soft-spoken novice Sister Mary Robert in the beloved Sister Act films alongside Whoopi Goldberg, has opened up about some of her character choices.

“I thought to myself, ‘How am I gonna then justify how obsessed I sort of am with Deloris?' And then I thought, ‘Well, maybe there's an attraction,'” Makkena has recently said on the You Might Know Her From podcast.

The 1992 feelgood classic follows Goldberg's Deloris Van Cariter after she is forced into witness protection and must disguise herself as a nun. Makkena played a timid, novice to the convent who is still trying to find her place amongst the other nuns.

View this post on Instagram

Deloris's loud, confident nature helps to warm up Sister Mary Roberts, who soon starts to sing and speak out. Makkena made the choice to add a subtext to her performance. The movie also starred Maggie Smith, Kathy Najimy, Mary Wickes, and Harvey Keitel. 

“It occurred to me that possibly, Sister Mary Robert was drawn to Deloris unconsciously, subconsciously… that there was some kind of attraction that not even Sister Mary Robert would have been, given how very innocent she was, aware of,” Makkena explained on the podcast

She never told anyone about her decision, “And nobody certainly noticed it on set. It was just an internal little secret that I used as an actor.”

But, some critics and audience members did pick up on this subtle character choice, something which surprised and validated the actress.

“It wasn't until the movie came out and the reviews were so lovely, and somebody called me, and they said, ‘Oh my gosh, Out Magazine says that how come nobody has noticed the sexual tension between Deloris and Sister Mary Robert?'” she recalled. “I remember thinking, ‘Oh my God, they picked up on it.' ”

The film has long been a favorite of the LGBTQ+ community. In 2017, Dazed wrote a piece calling Sister Act a "biracial lesbian rom-com." In 2022, Catapult wrote about the "queerness" of the Whoopi Goldberg movie.

Where this clever cooler really shines, however, is its easy-to-organize compartment setup. There's one main tray that takes up half the cooler and holds all your cans and bottles, and two three-compartment trays designed to keep a variety of snacks organized and easy to access. Even more convenient, it includes two clear lids that fit perfectly over each snack tray, helping keep everything safe from splashes and general pool tomfoolery, as well as an included ice scoop to make serving easy.

As for its overall footprint, the cooler measures 13.7 inches wide by 24.6 inches long and stands roughly 7.5 inches tall. And while it floats with ease, it's best not to overfill it to prevent it from flipping or sinking during use. It's also not intended for use in a hot tub, though it can be used outside of water, making it perfect to have within reach whether you're spending the day poolside, at the park or simply hanging on your porch.

If you act fast, you should still be able to snag one (or two) while they're in stock, but with summer finally kicking off, you might want to head to Aldi this weekend to secure one before they're gone. While you're there, don't forget to take a peek at Aldi's clever $6 salad chiller and $10 serving bowl set for even more essential hosting finds.

When Prince Harry took Meghan Markle to visit Princess Diana's grave for the first time, Meghan asked her late mother-in-law for two things.

The Duchess of Sussex's two-word prayer at the late Princess of Wales' resting place was revealed by the Duke of Sussex in his memoir Spare.

In 2022 Harry and Meghan marked the 25th anniversary of Diana's death by visiting the secluded island at the centre of an ornamental lake in the depths of Althorp Park, the Spencer family estate.

Harry wrote about the experience of rowing himself and his wife out to the island.

"No visit to this place was ever easy," he wrote, "but this one… twenty-fifth anniversary. And Meg’s first time. At long last, I was bringing the girl of my dreams home to meet mum."

He said that before the couple approached the grave there was a moment where they hung back in hesitation, hugging one another, before he appraoched the grave first and laid flowers.

He went on, "Meg gave me a moment, and I spoke to my mother in my head, told her I missed her, asked her for guidance and clarity.

"Feeling that Meg might also want a moment, I went around the hedge, scanned the pond. When I came back, Meg was kneeling, eyes shut, palms against the stone."

He added, “I asked, as we walked back to the boat, what she’d prayed for. Clarity, she said. And guidance."

Harry and Meghan are reportedly planning to bring their two children Prince Archie (7) and Princess Lilibet Diana (5) to visit their late grandmother's grave for the first time when they visit the UK next month.

The visit will come just a few days after what would have been Diana's 65th birthday on July 1.

The website for Diana's ancestral estate notes that Althorp House and its park will be closed to the public on July 10 and 11, coinciding with Harry and Meghan's visit. It's been suggested that this could mean that the Sussexes will be hosted at Althorp at some point during their five day trip to the UK.

Meanwhile, it was reported today that King Charles III has offered to host Harry and Meghan at an unspecified royal estate for part of their stay, and that his offer has been accepted.

The Duke of Sussex has been offered royal accommodation when he previously traveled from his home in Montecito, California to his home country, but has always declined.

Does his acceptance of the offer this time around indicate a thaw in the frosty relations between himself and his father?

Harry and Meghan's upcoming trip will mark the first time since in four years that the Sussexes will visit the UK as a family.

However Harry and Meghan are not expected to bring their children to the one year countdown events for the 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham, which take place from July 10-17.

Later this summer, August 31 will mark the 29th anniversary of Princess Diana's death.

The Princess of Wales died tragically after a car crash in a Paris tunnel in 1997, due to a high-speed chase by the paparazzi and what the subsequent inquest described as the “gross negligence” of her driver, Henri Paul, whose blood alcohol was reportedly three times over the French legal limit.

Diana was buried later in a private ceremony in Althorp Park a few hours after her funeral. She was wearing a black woolen long-sleeved cocktail dress by Catherine Walker that she had ordered only weeks before she died, and holding a set of rosary beads that were a gift from Mother Theresa.

Originally, Diana was supposed to be interred in the Spencer family vault at a local church, but the scenes of grief after her death led to concerns that her burial place could be overwhelmed with visitors.

To ensure that her sons and other family members could visit her grave in privacy, Diana was buried on an island in the middle of the ornamental Oval Lake.

The path to the lake is lined with 36 oak trees, each of which represents a year of Diana’s life.

In 2017 her brother Earl Spencer said, "We have had four attempted break-ins towards her body in the last 20 years. I am very glad that we have seen all of them off. There are some odd people out there."

Although you can’t visit Diana’s grave, Althorp is open to visitors during the summer. You can look across the lake to the white memorial urn that glows among the lush greenery, and visit the lakeside temple dedicated to Diana where visitors can leave tributes.

The temple is decorated with a black-and-white cameo of the princess, as well as one of her quotes: “Nothing brings me more happiness than trying to help the most vulnerable people in society. It is a goal and an essential part of my life. A kind of destiny. Whoever is in distress can call on me. I will come running wherever they are.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding is rapidly approaching, and two major stars are reportedly set to perform at the reception.

According to a report from Page Six, Stevie Nicks and Tim McGraw will perform at what some insiders are calling "Wedding-palooza" at Madison Square Garden on Friday, July 3.

For longtime fans of the singer, this lineup isn't exactly surprising. Swift's first Billboard hit when she was 16 years old was titled "Tim McGraw." As for Nicks, Swift may have dropped a hint during Game 4 of the NBA Finals when she wore a shirt reading "Stevie Knicks" as the New York Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs at Madison Square Garden.

TMZ also reports that Paul McCartney's name has been circulated as a third potential performer, but it's not confirmed if the former Beatles member will actually play.

Earlier this week, New York City Hall confirmed to the outlet there is a permit for an event of more than 1,000 people at Madison Square Garden on July 3. City Hall also confirmed that a permit application was filed with the Street Activity Permit Office for July 2 through July 4, with 33rd Street blocked off.

Page Six also confirmed there is a permit for a 100-person event on Thursday, July 2, with a source telling the publication that's for the rehearsal dinner.

Wedding guests reportedly include Swift's high school best friendAbigail Anderson, who is set to serve as maid of honor; Este, Danielle and Alana Haim; Zoe Kravitz; Ed Sheeran; Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley; Mariska Hargitay; Cara Delevingne; Suki Waterhouse; Emma Stone; Gigi Hadid and boyfriendBradley Cooper; and Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco.

Blake Lively and were husband Ryan Reynolds were allegedly left off the guest list after she and Swift reportedly fell out amid the actress's court battle with It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni.

The audience may not have embraced Fight Club at its premiere, but Edward Norton says Brad Pitt never lost faith in the film

Appearing on David Spade and Dana Carvey'sFly on the Wall podcast Thursday, June 25, Norton recalled the pair's experience at the 1999 Venice Film Festival, where the now-iconic film received a far different reception than fans might expect today.

"They made a very strange decision to premiere that movie at the Venice Film Festival, which didn't feel like a good fit, and it got booed," Norton, 56, said. 

View this post on Instagram

Even before the screening began, both actors had a feeling the audience might not vibe with David Fincher's dark satire. "Brad had said to me, 'How do you think this is going to go?' And I said, 'I don't think this is going to go well at all.' And he said, 'Me neither. Let's get stoned.'"

The prediction unfortunately proved accurate. "I remember sitting in the back and watching the movie and they booed at the end and people left in the middle of it," Norton recalled. The actor remembered Pitt turning to him in the darkness, "kind of tearful," before saying, "I think that's the best movie I'm ever going to be in."

But looking back, Norton believes the rocky debut may have actually worked in the film's favor. "It's almost better” he said before Spade jumped in, saying, "It turn[ed] into an important thing that hits people.” Norton agreed, saying it was a very “nervy but very cool feeling."

The nostalgic story dropped the same day Pitt and Norton reunited at the FIFA Club World Cup in California, where the longtime friends were spotted watching the U.S.A. vs. Türkiye match together from a luxury suite. Photos of the pair immediately sparked a wave of Fight Clubjokes and memes across social media, with fans celebrating the reunion nearly three decades later.

While Fight Club ultimately bombed at the box office—earning just $37 million domestically against a reported $65 million budget—the film found new life on home video, selling an estimated 13 million DVDs and becoming one of cinema's most celebrated cult classics. Twenty-five years later, it returned to theaters for a special 4K re-release.

Amid his major North American headlining tour, country star Josh Ross has claimed his first No. 1 hit on the Billboard Country Airplay chart. The milestone has elicited an excited response from the up-and-coming star's rapidly growing fan base.

Ross's hit track, "Hate How You Look," claimed the top spot after passing Ella Langley's single "Be Her," which had dominated the No. 1 position for four consecutive weeks. Before this achievement, Ross's highest-charting single was "Single Again," which peaked at No. 2 on the Country Airplay tally last summer.

Ross got his start in the country music space in 2019 after retiring from his college football career. The 30-year-old musician released his debut EP Do What You Love in 2020, garnering his first bits of mainstream attention with his 2021 single "First Taste of Gone." Last fall, Ross released his first full-length studio album, Later Tonight, which further established him as a force to be reckoned with in the modern country landscape.

His chart-topping hit "Hate How You Look"—co-written by Nicolas Sainato, Chris McKenna, Jessica Farren and Christian Yancey—was initially dropped on April 18, 2025. Following the eventual arrival of Later Tonight, the track saw a massive uptick in listener demand. Today, the song is one of Ross's most successful releases on Spotify, racking up an impressive 30.8 million streams.

In February, the country star launched a major headlining trek dubbed the Later Tonight Tour. The run traveled throughout North America, highlighting the songs from his debut full-length project. After his headlining trek wraps up in August, the star is set to join country duo Dan + Shay as support for their fall run, dubbed The Young Tour.

Tickets for Ross's upcoming shows can be purchased through his official website.

Most fans know Bruce Willis for his run of Hollywood blockbusters, from Die Hard to The Sixth Sense. But before he became an action icon, the actor moonlighted as a singer, and he did it under a different name entirely.

Back in the late 1980s, Willis tried his hand at recording music, performing as a rock star alter ego he called Bruno Radolini.

In January 1987, he released his debut album, The Return of Bruno, a 10-track R&B record stacked with guest talent including the Pointer Sisters, the Temptations, and organ legend Booker T. Jones.

The album proved a genuine hit, climbing to No. 14 on the Billboard 200, powered by its lead single, Respect Yourself.

Willis's version, a duet with June Pointer, reached No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was originally recorded by the Staple Singers in 1971.

His follow-up singles didn't match that high. Young Blood stalled at No. 68 in the U.S., though Under the Boardwalk found a second life across the pond, soaring to No. 2 on the U.K. singles chart, as per Sessiondays.

Willis also slipped into character for an hour-long HBO mockumentary, also titled The Return of Bruno, which aired the same year. The special featured music greats like Elton John, Ringo Starr, and Brian Wilson, all of them riffing on Bruno's supposed influence on their careers, alongside faux concert footage spanning the 1960s through the 1980s.

Around the same time, Willis signed on with Seagram's Golden Wine Coolers for a series of commercials in which he also sang, according to Retro Network. But Bruno was largely left behind once Die Hard hit theaters in 1988 and grossed roughly $40 million.

He gave music one more proper go, releasing a second album, If It Don't Kill You, It Just Makes You Stronger, in 1989. This time, there was no mention of Bruno.

He never fully hung up the microphone, though. In the early '90s, Willis and then-wife Demi Moore invested in the Planet Hollywood chain, and he often performed at restaurant openings with his blues band, the Accelerators.

Willis always treated Bruno as a deliberate creation, not just a lark. "Bruno takes himself very seriously," he told the Today show in 1987.

"I kinda look at him as just another performance, just another page in the book of the entertainment that I do. He's a character that I play. It certainly allows me not to take myself so seriously."

Even though he never became a music superstar, he's always spoken fondly of the chapter. "I don't have any regrets about anything I've done," he later told MTV. "I've certainly learned from some of the things that I've done. But I wouldn't change anything."

In 2023, Willis's family announced that the actor, now 71, had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.

"FTD is a cruel disease that many of us have never heard of and can strike anyone," his family said in a statement.

"For people under 60, FTD is the most common form of dementia, and because getting the diagnosis can take years, FTD is likely much more prevalent than we know. Today, there are no treatments for the disease, a reality that we hope can change in the years ahead."

He has since stepped away from the spotlight. Through it all, he's had the steady support of his wife, Emma Heming Willis, a British-American model, actress, and entrepreneur who has become a leading voice for families and caregivers navigating neurodegenerative disease. 

She has spoken candidly about the realities of caregiving and worked to raise awareness of FTD since the diagnosis was made public.

No matter how famous Dave Grohl may be, at the end of the day he's still a dad, and with that comes all the trappings of fatherhood, including one of the most time-honored traditions of being a girl dad, and that's giving your daughter's boyfriend a hard time.

Yep. The Foo Fighters show was capped off by a hilarious moment between Grohl and his daughter's boyfriend, who came on stage looking to perform a song with the band. This would be allowed, but only under one condition. He would need to solve a Rubik's Cube first.

I genuinely didn’t think he’d do it 🥁 #foofighters #davegrohl #rubikscube #anfield #fyp

It was a tense moment to start, with a drum roll and everything as he raced to complete the puzzle. He did it though, and as promised, he got to take a song with the band. Surprising all the fans in the audience, he hopped on the drums and hung with the group for a great version of the song "Rope."

Of course, the stunt was all some lighthearted fun to make the show into something more exciting for the fans there, which it certainly accomplished. It's such a bizarre and silly idea, that it no doubt elevated the performance and brought everyone there closer together. Fans absolutely loved the moment, leaving comments about how funny it was, and how great of a job he did on the drums.

"Clearly his daughter chose wisely!"

"He was sick on the drums as well!!"

"Can you imagine Dave Grohl being your girlfriends dad and not being able to play drums???🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣"

We're all proud of the kid for holding his own with the family hazing. Most guys get a bit of a hard time at family dinner or something else, but not solving a Rubik's Cube in front of thousands of people. Regardless, it was a fun moment that we can all laugh at.

Fruit is one of the greatest gifts nature gives us. It’s not only refreshing but also nutritious, feeding the skin and organs with anti-inflammatory and anti-aging benefits. But what’s even more magnificent about fruit is that it carries the energy of the cosmos itself. While all fruits are good for you, you have a special connection to a particular one. Since, like everything else, nature aligns with the axiom “as above so below,” each fruit responds to the energy of one of the planets in our solar system. Find out which fruit you’re most connected to, according to the numerology of the day you were born, just in time for summer.

RELATED: Which Fruit Matches You, Based on Birth Month

Each Birth Date as a Fruit

Check the day you were born; disregard birth months. 

Born on the 1st, 10th, 19th, or 28th – Blood Orange

Ruled by the light of the Sun, you may gravitate towards all kinds of citrus, especially Blood Orange. With its massive dose of vitamin C and antioxidants, this vibrant fruit boosts your vitality and even promotes heart health. When feeling low energy or even a little blue, a Blood Orange juice is sure to lift your spirits! 

Born on the 2nd, 11th, 20th, or 29th – Lychee

If you were born on a day ruled by the Moon, there’s a mysterious aspect to your nature. On the outside, you may seem one way, but once the layers are peeled back, you reveal a sweet and rich interior. The translucent, grape-like Lychee is both sweet and fragrant, ideal for boosting your mood and immune support.

Born on the 3rd, 12th, 21st, or 30th – Watermelon 

If you’re lucky enough to be born under a day ruled by fortunate Jupiter, you’re drawn to a fruit that matches your optimism and social nature. Watermelon is never enjoyed by only one person—it’s always shared in social scenarios when people are happily enjoying each other’s company. Sharing it with others is sure to put a smile on your face. 

Born on the 4th, 13th, 22nd, or 31st – Kiwi

Being born on a day ruled by Uranus means there’s something about you that stands out. You may be soft on the inside, but once you open up, there’s a side of you that is fun and exciting. Fuzzy on the outside, sweet and tangy on the inside, Kiwi reflects your playful personality, always ready for the surprises that lie ahead. 

Born on the 5th, 14th, or 23rd – Pineapple 

If you were born on a Mercury-ruled day, your unique versatility finds expression in many ways. You can be chill and easy, but you also have your salty side when situations demand it. Used in both desserts and savory dishes for its sweet and tangy flavor, Pineapple mirrors your soul’s dual nature. Its vibrant color boosts your mood, and its unique enzyme (called bromelain) speeds up post-workout muscle recovery. 

RELATE?: The 4 Most Ambitious Birth Months, Per Experts

Born on the 6th, 15th, or 24th – Pink Guava

Being born on a day ruled by Venus means you’re sweet and beautiful, but that your heart is full of exciting surprises! The highly aromatic and nutritious Pink Guava is a gift from the tropics that offers beautifying effects, like collagen support and hyperpigmentation reduction. The seeds inside only make the pleasurable moment of eating it more interesting. 

Born on the 7th, 16th, or 25th – Blueberry 

A dreamy soul like you, always looking at the infinite, magical void where the ocean and the sky meet, responds to Neptune, the god of the sea. Grown on bushes, dusty blue Blueberries are a whole universe into themselves, with each one being a tiny universe bursting with magic. Being a superfood, Blueberries are so powerful that they even feed your brain by supporting long-term memory. 

Born on the 8th, 17th, or 26th – Grapes

If you were born on a day ruled by Saturn, you have an ancient connection to grapes. In Roman mythology, Saturn taught humans the art of farming, with grapes being a true necessity when it comes to making wine. But even eaten just as fruit alone, grapes support eye, brain, and heart health.

Born on the 9th, 18th, or 27th – Dragon Fruit

There is nothing more exciting than cutting a Dragon Fruit open! You never know if the interior will be white, red, or magenta—very similar to the dynamic energy of Mars, the planet ruling your birth date. Eating Dragon Fruit regularly is your natural shield, as it protects you from free radicals by boosting your immune system and regulating your blood sugar.

It takes something special to coax Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen into the public eye, and a family wedding did just that. 

The famously private twins made a rare appearance to celebrate their older brother, Trent Olsen, as he tied the knot, stepping out in their signature style for the joyful occasion. In a photo posted to Instagram on Thursday, June 26, by their new sister-in-law, Alexis, the sisters can be seen in floor-length black gowns, beaming as they posed alongside the bride and groom.

The group shot brought much of the Olsen family together, including the twins' younger sister and Marvel star, Elizabeth Olsen, who smiled from the back row in black. Elizabeth is expecting her first child with husband Robbie Arnett. "Family," Alexis and Trent wrote in their joint caption, adding a white heart.

The couple shared other warm moments from the May celebration, including a sweet photo of Mary-Kate hugging her older brother.

Glimpses of the twins are rare these days. Their last notable outing came at the 2025 CFDA Fashion Awards in November, where their luxury label, The Row, took home the American Accessory Designer of the Year award.

Beyond the occasional event or stray paparazzi shot, the sisters keep a low profile and steer clear of social media.

Born June 13, 1986, Mary-Kate and Ashley were household names by the mid-2000s, having first won over audiences in the 1990s as Michelle Tanner on the beloved sitcomFull House.

That childhood stardom grew into a full entertainment empire before the two walked away from acting to build their fashion labels, The Row and Elizabeth and James.

The family celebration rounds out a string of happy milestones for the close-knit Olsens. On June 13, days before the wedding photos surfaced, Mary-Kate and Ashley marked their 40th birthday.

Sam Elliott is known for his long career in films such as Road House, Mask, The Big Lebowski, and A Star is Born. But his breakthrough came in 1976 when he landed the starring role in the movie Lifeguard.

Directed by Daniel Petrie, Lifeguard featured Elliott in the title role as Rick Carlson, a professional lifeguard on a Southern California beach. The romantic drama focused on the kind, 30-something lifeguard serving as a mentor to trainee Chris (Parker Stevenson) while questioning his life choices as he approached his 15-year high school reunion. Elliott’s character also became entangled with a teen paramour (Kathleen Quinlan) before his reunion meetup with his now-divorced ex-girlfriend (Anne Archer) had him considering a career change.

Lifeguard hit theaters on July 23, 1976, smack in the middle of the Bicentennial summer that included the release of films such as Ode to Billy Joe, Silent Movie, The Omen, Cannonball, and Gator. But instead of focusing on the theme of a thoughtful man feeling pressure to change, Lifeguard was marketed to look like a sex comedy, complete with a beefy caricature of Elliott alongside two bikini-clad women.

In an interview with Cinephiled, Elliott recalled that all of the actors took Lifeguard “very seriously” when they were making the film, so the marketing ploy put him off.

“It’s a coming-of-age story for Kathleen Quinlan, and it was also about this guy I played who was doing what he loved to do instead of succumbing to pressure to do something else,” he shared. “It’s a very good movie that I’m proud of. But Paramount sold the film in very specific way. Their catchphrase was ‘Every girl’s summer dream’ and they used this artwork of me in my Speedo with a big-[breasted] girl on either side of me. ..they sold it like it was about that.”

“I went on the road doing press for six weeks, one city after another,” Elliott continued. “You get into these towns and do interviews, and usually the reporters had seen the film the night before. Invariably, every f---ing interview started with, ‘This movie isn’t anything like I expected!’ And man, when somebody said that, it just made me start sharing what I thought about the way Paramount was promoting the film.”

Elliott recalled that at the time he was very outspoken in the press as he slammed the way the film was advertised. Speaking with Business Insider, the actor admitted that his honesty while promoting the film hurt his career to a degree.

“Honest, opinionated, and not very smart. All at the same time. And that's a lethal combination,” he shared. “And I'll tell you what it came out of — it was the way Paramount chose to market that film."

"We took that whole movie serious, even though it was a fluffy treatment because it was set on a beach," Elliott explained. "But it was about a guy who was at a point in his life that he had to make up his mind about what he wanted to do: be a lifeguard or get a real job. And when the marketing campaign came out… people would start the interview by saying, ‘This movie is nothing like I expected it to be,’ based on the marketing, and we would go into this long discussion about the f---ing marketing. It was never positive. So in the end, I never worked for Paramount again.”

While he admittedly “scared people off” with his opinionated talk about the movie’s marketing, Elliott told The Hollywood Reporter he still felt blessed by his career. “I had my moment, where I had the starring role in Lifeguard and all that …I’ve managed to be very fortunate over the years. These things have kept coming around and coming around.”

He also noted that he could relate to his Lifeguard character and was happy with the ending to the film.

"Lifeguard is the closest thing to me personally I’ve ever done,” he once said, per Woman’s World. ”Everyone stresses money, money, money in the film—they pressure him like crazy. I agree with the choice he finally makes and, frankly, it’s easy for the character to make. I suppose it is a cop-out in a way. His life is happy and content, but he’s not a beach bum, either. In California, it’s a realistic way of making a living.”

We can't believe how tall Prince George has gotten!

In new footage released of the duo the twelve-year-old prince is almost exactly the same height as his mother Kate Middleton.

The Princess of Wales and her oldest son stepped out for a rare joint outing to a Royal Air Force base.

To mark Armed Forces day a video was released that includes footage of the duo posing in front of a WWII-era Spitfire plane.

Mother and son also took turns to climb into the fighter plane to inspect the cockpit.

George was the image of his father Prince William, dressing up for the occasion in a navy suit, blue shirt, and brown loafers.

Kate wore a tweed blazer and a white t shirt, accessorizing with her Annoushka Baroque Pearl Drop Earrings.

The £450 ($594) pearl earrings are a huge favorite of Kate's—she's worn them on many occasions since 2012, and they have a poignant connection to her children.

When George was born in 2013, Kate, William, and their newborn son stayed with Kate's parents Michael and Carole Middleton for a while. During that hot summer, a candid snap was released of the family—along with their cocker spaniel Lupo—sitting on the sunlit lawn of the Middletons' home in Berkshire.

Kate is wearing her Annoushka pearl drops in the photo, which was taken by her father.

Two years later she wore the same earrings when she and William posed for the traditional picture with their newborn daughter Princess Charlotte on the steps of St. Mary’s Hospital in London, where Kate had just given birth.

She wore the earrings again in 2018 when she posed on the same steps with a newborn Prince Louis.

In the footage released today the Princess of Wales looked so proud to be accompanied by her oldest son during their visit to RAF Coningsby.

Kate has been Royal Honorary Air Commodore of RAF Coningsby since 2023.

As second in line to the throne, Prince George will one day be commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces.

"Honouring Service and Sacrifice," the caption read of the video posted to the Prince and Princess of Wales's official Instagram account.

"Marking Armed Forces Day by reflecting on time spent with the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight at RAF Coningsby.

"Learning about the extraordinary history of these aircraft and meeting the pilots and engineers who keep their legacy alive.

"A powerful reminder of the courage, skill and dedication of those who serve, past and present.

Thank you to all those who have served and continue to serve."

We last saw Kate and George photographed together earlier this month, when they posed with the other members of the royal family on the balcony of Buckingham Palace at King Charles III's birthday parade.

This summer will be bittersweet for Kate and William, as it will mark their oldest son's last summer at home before he heads to his new school in the fall.

Kensington Palace recently confirmed that the 12-year-old future king is set to follow in his father Prince William and uncle Prince Harry‘s footsteps by enrolling at Eton College, the elite boys-only boarding school that costs $84,000 per year.

Although George will be a boarder, he will still be only a 15-minute drive from his family’s home of Forest Lodge in the grounds of Windsor Castle.

When William was a student at Eton, he often swung by Windsor Castle to have tea with his grandmotherQueen Elizabeth II.

Helen Slater has recently passed the baton to new Supergirl actress Milly Alcock. The actress donned the red cape in 1984's Supergirl, which was so poorly received that it sadly did not get a sequel.

Long Island-born Slater won the part of Superman's cousin after she auditioned in a homemade Supergirl costume.

“I can’t remember what I had for breakfast yesterday but I remember that audition. I was the only one sitting there that had a costume on. It was either, ‘uh-oh, this is either an epic fail’ or ‘look how courageous I am’,” she recently told The Telegraph.

The 62-year-old said she beat a “a cabal of Eighties actresses” for the role. Most famously, she also beat both Demi Moore and Brooke Shields to play Kara Zor-El.

“We always ideally tried to have big stars surrounding an unknown,” admitted the producer Ilya Salkind, per Sci Fi Now. “Helen Slater was totally unknown at the time and when we tested her we had seen a lot of girls, including Demi Moore, who turned it down. But when we finally saw Helen she absolutely stole the show, so we decided to go with her.”

“No one ever told me why I got the part,” Slater told the Telegraph, although she believes her earnestness matches Christopher Reeve’s overgrown Boy Scout. “They really doubled down on the sweetness,” says Slater about her version of Supergirl. “Very different to what we’re about to see with Milly.”

Being plucked from obscurity to play such an iconic comic book character, came with some side effects. “I felt the weight of it because of the publicity campaign,” Slater explained, before adding “I felt the whole weight of the experience because I was from New York but I was living in London. I was by myself. There was a heaviness to it.”

Slater has remained closely tied to the franchise over the years, appearing in the TV series Smallville as Superman's biological mother and in the CW's Supergirl show as Supergirl’s adoptive mother, Eliza Danvers.

In the music world, it's certainly hard to find a legacy act that can still produce on stage like they used to. That's no disrespect to any musicians in their later years, but it's an unfortunate truth that the road has a way of wearing the body down. That being said, Sammy Hagar is sounding pretty youthful still. If what Robbie Robertson of The Band said about touring being an "impossible way of life" is true, then it seems Hagar is doing the impossible.

You should remember Sammy Hagar from his work with Van Halen. Some of the bands most classic records feature his vocal work, such as the smash hit "5150." As one of the still remaining members of the band, he's one of the last places you can hear some authentic Van Halen from the source, and untainted from the years on the road.

At a recent concert of his, fans were absolutely stunned by his youthfulness on stage, and the talent he's still able to accurately reproduce.

Sammy Hagar Tour

Between his guitar playing and singing, the '80s icon has still got the stuff. That's an especially impressive feat as the style of singing he's known for is really hard on your voice. The high pitched, fried out screams that define the hard rock anthems of Van Halen's music cause a lot of wear and tear, but it seems that convention has skipped Hagar and left him unscarred.

Fans were quick to the comments to praise the star and the performance he's still able to give forty years after Van Halen's prime.

"I was there!!! Amazing!!!"

"Sammy is doing it right. He sounds great, he’s dressing like an older dude who plays music. Not chasing the 80’s."

"This guy is ageless! Long live Sammy!!!"

We're lucky that one of the '80s biggest rock icons gets to rock out like the years haven't gone by all the way to today. Even if it's for one night, concerts can turn the years back and make everyone young again.

Mira Sorvino just shared a video in costume from the set of the Romy and Michele's High School Reunion sequel, and she looks almost the same as she did 29 years ago.

The acclaimed actress, 58, who scored an Academy Award for her role in Woody Allen‘s 1995 film Mighty Aphrodite, is a fan favorite thanks to legendary performances in films like Summer of Sam. The daughter of the late Goodfellas star Paul Sorvino, she’s married to Christopher Backus, and the duo has four children. But one of her most beloved films, Romy and Michele, has brought fans back for rewatches endlessly. And with the new sequel in the works starring Sorvino and Lisa Kudrow, everyone's ready to head to the theater.

In a new video shared to her Instagram account, Sorvino showed herself in costume as Romy once again. Sporting platinum blonde hair and red lipstick, it's almost shocking how little she's changed since the 1997 film came out. However, it was her touching message that really resonated with fans.

"After 30 years, we have a sequel... I couldn't be more excited," Sorvino shared from the set of Romy and Michele 2. Looking like she might burst into tears of joy, the star shared that they just completed the first day on set of the highly anticipated sequel.

Sorvino’s Daughter is a Dead Ringer for Her Mom

Sorvino recently took to Instagram to wish her daughter, Mattea Backus, a happy birthday, and it’s safe to say the college student bears a striking resemblance to her mother.

“Happiest of birthdays to the most wonderful @matteaabackus you fill my heart to bursting with love and pride. You have always flown so high, I am in awe of you up there in the stratosphere, climbing with each shining moment,” Sorvino wrote, captioning a series of photos of herself and her lookalike daughter as they enjoyed adventures across the globe. “My dear gift from God, you changed my life immeasurably for the better from the first second I held you in my arms, I love you so!!!”

“I have wished to dance and sing in a Broadway musical since I was a small child,” Sorvino said in a statement, PEOPLE reported. “To join Chicago, such a legendary show, and such an incredible cast, past and present, is literally a dream come true!”
