Our favorite Olympian-slash-supermodel is at it again!
Today, Ilona Maher is "killing" her fans with a new swimsuit photo from Cannes, where she posed in front of a marina during her vacation on the French Riviera.
The rugby star wore a strappy little black bikini with ruffled edges as she stood in a shaded spot, wringing out her hair in a pose that reminded one follower of a softball batter's stance. She accessorized with a pair of sunnies, thick gold hoop earrings and a pair of necklaces.
"Magnifique," she captioned the latest of her French glam shots, and fans were delighted to play into her current locale as they fawned over the photo.
"Tres magnifique!" one declared, while others called her "Incroyable 🔥" or quipped, "Oooo la la🔥🔥🔥🔥😂."
"YEAH YOU ARE 😍😍," someone else agreed emphatically, as others gushed over her—and the "so cute" Bora Bora set from Truss Swim that she wore—in English.
"Goddess 🤍," one called her, bringing back memories of the risqué gown she recently wore that reminded fans of a Greek goddess.
"GORGEOUS GORGEOUS," someone else exclaimed, with others using words like "Flawless 👏👏😍😍" and "insane😍" to describe her.
"Girl! You don't have no business slaying this hard 🔥🔥," the praise continued.
"Woww 🔥🔥🔥 goals," one fan admitted, as another shared, "I'm obsessed."
"That's the shot," another said confidently, with someone else sharing similar sentiments: "This photo is everything!"
One fan couldn't decide if she was giving "Bond girl vibes" or more of "the villain," but another was certain, as they declared, "You're killing me ilona."Ilona Maher Turns Heads in 'Tres Magnifique' Little Black Bikini in Cannes first appeared on Parade on Jun 17, 2025

2 Twin Cities Restaurants and Chefs Win James Beard Awards
Last night, the James Beard Foundation announced the winners of its Restaurant and Chef Awards, with two Twin Cities restaurants taking home awards for Best New Restaurant and Best Chef: Midwest. The Monday, June 16, ceremony at the Lyric Opera of Chicago also included new categories to honor the beverage industry, including Best New Bar, Outstanding Professional in Beverage Service, and Outstanding Professional in Cocktail Service. Find the full list of the 2025 James Beard Award winners here. Karyn Tomlinson, of Myriel in St. Paul, won in the Best Chef: Midwest category. Tomlinson quickly became known for her 'grandma cooking nouveau' style at Myriel after opening in 2021, combining her Scandinavian/Minnesotan heritage and French culinary training. Alluding to that 'grandma chic' cooking, Tomlinson dressed up in the same coral dress her grandmother wore when she was crowned the 'dazzle corn queen' in 1941, part of a celebration marking the University of Minnesota's efforts to identify cold-tolerant corn crops for Minnesota. She ended her acceptance speech with some Midwest pride, saying 'the Midwest is beautiful, the Midwest is diverse, the Midwest is tenacious and strong.' Bûcheron won the Best New Restaurant category, with co-owner Jeanie Janas Ritter accepting the Kingfield bistro's national award. Bûcheron was one of 10 nominees in the category, and the only restaurant from the Midwest and Great Lakes regions. (The only other Minnesota restaurant ever nominated in the category was Owamni, which brought home the award in 2022.) 'It's the neighborhood restaurant we always wanted in our neighborhood,' Jeanie Ritter said during her acceptance speech, adding that some of her guests have come out to Chicago to celebrate with them tonight and thanking them 'for making it possible to do what we love.' She and her husband Adam Ritter spoke to Eater earlier this month about how they built the 'Midwest French' restaurant so they could spend more time with their two toddlers. Fresh off the stage, Ritter shared with Eater that several customers and friends joined her in Chicago for the awards. 'We had regulars fly here and get tickets to be with us. We have my dear mentor who just passed away, her husband and best friend surprised us, which is just — I'm still trying to wrap my head around it,' she said. 'We have the best community, and we are so grateful for them.' As for what she and Bûcheron's supporters would be doing on Monday night to celebrate: 'Oh man, hopefully we're not going to get as drunk as we did last night, but it might be unavoidable. We're having fun.' In her speech, Ritter said that, 'Minnesota cuisine is defined by the ingredients rather than the technique.' It was a sentiment echoed by Tomlinson during a post-win interview in the press room. She was proud of both Myriel and Bûcheron's wins as both are 'proudly Minnesotan and Midwestern and are exploring that in different ways in our connections with farmers.' She hopes that the Midwest will be recognized more in the future for its diversity and the many cultures that define the cuisine of the heartland. Bar Brava did not take home a Beard in the new Outstanding Wine and Other Beverages Program. (Charleston in Baltimore brought home the win.) At the Media Awards on Saturday, June 14, Vinai chef Yia Vang and the Twin Cities PBS producers of Relish received an award in the Lifestyle Visual Media category. Here are the full lists of the Twin Cities's five finalists and 10 semifinalists for the 2025 James Beard Awards. Additional reporting by Brenna Houck.

Country Music Hall of Fame Makes Huge Lainey Wilson Announcement
Country Music Hall of Fame Makes Huge Lainey Wilson Announcement originally appeared on Parade. The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum made a huge announcement for fans on Tuesday, June 17. Wilson, 33, the sassy songstress behind such hits as "Things a Man Oughta Know," "Heart Like a Truck," "Watermelon Moonshine" and "Wildflowers and Wild Horses," is getting her very own exhibition at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, Tennessee. Lainey Wilson: Tough as Nails will trace Wilson's story "from her upbringing on her family's farm in Baskin, Louisiana, to her rise to global fame," according to the press release. The exhibit opens on July 18 and will run until June press release continues, "Wilson grew up in Baskin, Louisiana…riding horses and four-wheelers and swimming in nearby Big Creek with her older sister. Wilson envisioned a career as a country artist and started working to make it happen from a young age — singing publicly for the first time at her kindergarten graduation and writing songs for fun by the time she was 10. As a teenager, she learned how to handle herself in front of audiences through performances, pageants and local talent competitions. "In 2011, Wilson moved to Nashville. Her one connection to the country music business was Jerry Cupit, a family friend from Franklin Parish who became her producer, a songwriting partner and a mentor. His death in 2014 left Wilson's future in Nashville uncertain, but she refused to give up. In 2015, she met Mandelyn Monchick, who advocated for Wilson as a friend before officially becoming her manager and introduced Wilson to Aslan Freeman, now her bandleader." The exhibit will include stage wear, instruments, photographs, childhood memorabilia and more. Examples of items to be displayed include: The first tooled leather saddle Wilson used as a child. The Montana Silversmiths custom-made silver and gold belt buckle — engraved with the brand of her family's farm in Baskin, Louisiana, and ornamented with rhinestones — that Wilson wore to the Country Music Association Awards in 2022. Sixteen-year-old Wilson's journal, where she wrote, 'My dream is to become a country singer/songwriter. I know I can do it.'

'This exhibit will examine the seeds of her career, including the requisite talent, hard work and ingenuity throughout her ten-year journey in Nashville that fueled her emergence as a globally popular and beloved artist. As her career has flourished, she continues to reflect these roots and core values in her music and life.' 'It's a dream come true to have my own exhibit in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, and such an incredible honor to be included next to so many of my heroes and legendary artists,' added Wilson. 'These past few years have been a complete whirlwind, and it's going to be really amazing to see the whole journey captured in the exhibit, along with some special items from growing up in Louisiana. I can't wait to see how it turned out and for my family, friends and fans to check it out.' 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 Country Music Hall of Fame Makes Huge Lainey Wilson Announcement first appeared on Parade on Jun 17, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 17, 2025, where it first appeared.
