Photo-Illustration: The Cut; Photos: Getty Images It’s been eight years since Taylor Swift and Kim Kardashian started publicly feuding, and it looks like at least one party is not ready to stop talking about it anytime soon. As fans decode every last word of Swift’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department, people are convinced “thanK you aIMee” — a song about a girl who bullies Swift in high school — is about Kim. To start, there’s the fact that the letters K-I-M are capitalized in the song title — not exactly subtle. In the first verse, Swift sings, “When I picture my hometown / Th ..read more

Ashok Kumar/TAS24/Getty Images for TAS Rights Mana Happy The Tortured Poets Department Day! There’s a lot to take in. After teasing her new album release for weeks, at 2 a.m. Friday, Taylor Swift revealed that this was actually a double album, meaning that the record ballooned from a semi-manageable 16 tracks to an unwieldy 31. If you don’t have two free hours to sit and really listen to the whole thing today, I’ve got you. Here are the best, worst, and weirdest lyrics on TTPD. Feel free to skim through this so you can have something to say in your group chats. Best “I’ll tell you somethin ..read more

The excitement comes at a good time: Wednesday marked 100 days until the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics, and Omega — the official time partner of the games since 1932 — wanted to celebrate. Alongside Thomas, Paralympic Ambassador Jessica Long, and the company’s U.S. president, Arnaud Michon, the time-telling brand hosted a panel discussion and cocktail hour to unveil its two lat ..read more

Getty Images It feels like just yesterday that Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise’s daughter, Suri, was a baby style icon, but now, she’s legally an adult. On Thursday, Suri celebrated her 18th birthday in New York City. TMZ spotted Suri walking around the rainy city with a friend with a gift bag in tow, and the Daily Mail snapped photos of her grabbing some flowers from a local flower shop. Like her mom, Suri’s street style didn’t disappoint: The teen wore baggy jeans with a satin cropped top and an oversize denim jacket. She had a velvet backpack on one shoulder and was holding a frilly pink ..read more

Photo: Courtesy of Stone Island In 1982, Stone Island, the popular menswear brand, created a cape that changed outerwear in fashion. It referenced a military garment that could be repurposed as a tent. Now, 42 years later, the label has introduced an installation as an ode to this piece. And where better to do it than Milan Design Week, which is basically the Fashion Week of the interior-design world. “The Intellectual Space” is an exhibition featuring a wall of 32 interconnected floating capes and a series of LED installations showcasing the garment-creation process. The Italian company has a ..read more

It’s been nice, and I haven’t felt compelled to pick it up again. Lately, I’ve started trying to go out more and to be more socially active. It’s working, but the problem is, I have so much social anxiety and social impostor syndrome. “You don’t belong here,” the anxiety tells me. “These people pity you and talk about you when you leave.” It makes it hard to feel at ease, which makes ..read more

Photo: Getty Images for Prime Video In today’s episode of “things I really did not need to know but are now burned in my brain,” I present to you Nick Viall getting excessively candid on his podcast, The Viall Files. On the Bachelor alum’s Thursday episode, Viall discussed the “challenge” of his postpartum sex life with fiancée Natalie Joy. The couple, who got engaged in January of last year, welcomed their first child in February and have apparently been trying to figure out how to get back into the swing of their normal intimacy ever since. “It is just logistically hard. You have this little ..read more

Just two months after reportedly calling things off, People has obtained photos of the former flames holding hands while walking on the beach in Miami. I’m no relationship expert, but it is my understanding that exes do not simply hold hands and stroll romantically down the coast of Florida for no reason. Or perhaps, they just couldn’t resist the urge. You know, for old time’s sake. Either way, an anonymous source who claims to be close to the pair told People ..read more
