Kaia Gerber looks like mom Cindy Crawford's TWIN in new photo as she promotes latest project
Kaia Gerber looked like the spitting image of her mom Cindy Crawford in a smoldering first-look promotional photo for Palm Royale season two. The 23-year-old nepo baby — who recently performed in Massachusetts — posed on a bed wearing a blue babydoll teddy and matching bow in her hair, drawing a striking resemblance to her supermodel mother, 59. Kaia stretched out her long legs in the dimly lit image, which also included a martini prop set in front of her. She projected a provocative 'bedroom eyes' expression as she gazed out of the camera's frame. Naming her character in an Instagram caption, she wrote, 'mitzi [white heart emoji] first look of palm royale season two @appletv.' Meanwhile, Apple TV's account revealed the season two release date along with a post featuring a carousel of stills. The 23-year-old nepo baby posed on a bed wearing a blue babydoll teddy and matching bow in her hair, drawing a striking resemblance to her supermodel mother, 59 'Raise a grasshopper for the return of Palm Royale. Season 2 premieres November 12 on Apple TV+,' the streamer's caption detailed. One photo showed protagonist Kristen Wiig, who turns 52 on Friday, in a yellow fringe crop top and matching lace bell-bottoms. Her voluminous blonde hair was teased as it fell around her face as she danced in a scene with extras. Leslie Bibb, 51, was also part of the lineup of promotional snapshots, and Laura Dern's, 58, solo promo still featured her sitting on a bed with her legs crisscrossed. There was also an outtake of Carol Burnett, 92, looking fabulous in a blue, purple, and green cloak-like dress. Amber Chardae Robinson, 35, also appeared in the carousel post announcement, which she shared on her personal Instagram profile with the caption: 'Weeeee'rreeee Back Baby!!!' Last October Kaia was spotted filming scenes for the second season while sporting a prosthetic baby bump. Loosely based on the novel Mr. & Mrs. American Pie by Juliet McDaniel, the comedy-drama is set in the super-rich Florida enclave of Palm Beach in 1969. She plays Mitzi — who is revealed to have been having an affair with main character Maxine's (Kristen) husband Douglas (Josh Lucas). In June 2024 Apple Studios officially renewed the high society dramedy for a second installment. It followed Maxine as she aimed to break into the ultra-exclusive Palm Beach social world. As she attempted to cross the line between the haves and the have-nots, the show posited the question: 'How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to get what someone else has?' After following in her modeling footsteps and making the transition to the screen with roles in Palm Royale, American Horror Story and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Kaia's mom Cindy raved that her daughter has a 'very good head on her shoulders.' Speaking to People in 2023, she shared that the burgeoning actress is 'figuring out how she wants to create' a 'private work-public balance.' 'It's a much different landscape than it was when I was her age. Like anything, there's good and bad sides to it,' she noted.

Swedish church sets off on three-mile road trip to new city centre
The Kiruna Church — called Kiruna Kyrka in Swedish — and its belfry are being moved this week along a five-kilometre (three-mile) route east to a new city centre as part of the town's relocation. The world's largest underground iron-ore mine is threatening to swallow the town, meaning the church and the rest of the town need to be moved. This week, thousands of visitors have descended upon Kiruna, Sweden's northernmost town, at 200 kilometres (124 miles) above the Arctic Circle. It's home to roughly 23,000 inhabitants, including members of the Sami Indigenous people, spread over nearly 19,500 square kilometres (7,528 square miles). Lena Tjarnberg, the church's vicar, kicked off the move with a blessing on Tuesday morning. The church's move is expected to last until Wednesday afternoon. This week's move has turned into a two-day, highly choreographed media spectacle, run by LKAB, the state-owned mining company, and featuring an appearance by Swedish King Carl XVI Gustaf. Musical performances will include a set from KAJ, Sweden's 2025 Eurovision entry, who had been the bookies' favourite to win this year's contest. Known for both the Midnight Sun and the Northern Lights, Kiruna and the surrounding area are a major draw year-round for visitors to Swedish Lapland. But not everyone is thrilled about LKAB's extravaganza. Lars-Marcus Kuhmunen, chairman of one of the Sami reindeer herding organisations in Kiruna, said LKAB's plans for a new mine could threaten reindeer migration routes and imperil the livelihood of herders in the area. The move of Kiruna's town centre, including the church, has been in the works since 2004. As the mine expanded deeper underground, residents began seeing cracks in buildings and roads. In order to reach a new depth of 1,365 meters (4,478 feet) — and to prevent Kiruna from being swallowed up — officials began moving buildings to a new downtown at a safe distance from the mine. As of July, 25 buildings had been lifted up onto beams and wheeled east. Sixteen, including the church, remain. At approximately 40 metres (131 feet) wide with a weight of 672 tonnes, the church required extra effort. Engineers widened a major road from nine metres to 24 metres (30 to 79 feet) and dismantled a viaduct to make way for a new intersection. A driver, using a large control box, is piloting the church through the route as it travels roughly 12 hours over Tuesday and Wednesday, with a pause each day for fika, the traditional Swedish afternoon coffee break. It's expected to move at a varying pace between 0.5 and 1.5 kilometres per hour (0.31 and 0.93 miles per hour). Stefan Holmblad Johansson, LKAB's project manager for the move, would not say how much it has cost the mining company.
