Cardi B Channels Dolly Parton With Bird's Nest Hairdo at the Balenciaga Fall 2025 Couture Show in Paris
The artist's voluminous hairdo reached new heights with foot-long extensions that were tied and teased on top of Cardi B's head; her ends maintained the shape of the wide-barrel rollers that formed them. The inky tresses stuck out behind her, falling from the BumpIt positioned on the crown of her head.

Cardi B isn't the only celebrity to revert to protruding roots and thick extensions recently. TikTok-er-turned-pop star Addison Rae just sported the same dramatic aesthetic in the music video for her new hit, 'Times Like These,' which sees her undergo a major transformation from wet to wind-blown hair. Rae's grandiose style was designed by hair artist Lucas Wilson, whose client list includes models Gabbriette and Emily Ratajkowski. Cardi B's hair was most likely designed by Tokyo Stylez, her go-to hairstylist, with whom she's worked with on cover shoots and concert looks.
Her makeup, on the other hand, bore a unique resemblance to trends from a later era. Her finely plucked, angled eyebrows, a burgeoning brow theme these days, harked back to the beauty aesthetics of the late '80s and early '90s, as did her bold red lip and shimmery purple shadow. Nothing about her visage spoke to the 'clean girl,' no-makeup trend that's consumed the online mecca since 2020. In fact, her made-up countenance drew comparisons to Doja Cat's punky makeup at the 2025 Met Gala in May. There, the 'Streets' vocalist wore aquatic shadow up to her skinny brows and matte lipstick in a dark crimson hue.
For her fashion at the Balenciaga presentation, Cardi B donned a delicate long-sleeve, floral gown with intricate beading woven into the mesh fabric. She paired the sultry garment with sheer stockings and pointed-toe pumps.
Elsewhere at the show, Lisa Rinna sported a relaxed, toned-down ensemble, consisting of a cocooning cobalt tracksuit and a straightened black bowl-cut wig similar to Anderson .Paak's signature 'do.

The Ferrari actress, 33, was spotted snuggling up to Bravo, 37, on Monday, Aug. 4, while on the set of Emily in Paris. In the photos, Woodley can be seen covering herself with a green baseball cap and sunglasses, and resting her head on Bravo's shoulders as they looked out into the distance. Bravo currently plays Gabriel on Emily in Paris, and the Netflix series is filming its fifth season. Woodley and Bravo first showed off their romance when they stepped out together in Paris multiple times in late March. In the photos, the couple showed a lot of affection for each other as they strolled along the Paris streets. They were photographed holding hands, sharing a hug and draping their arms around one another, smiling as they walked outdoors. Weeks later, Bravo briefly addressed their relationship at the opening night of Broadway's Good Night, and Good Luck on Thursday, April 3. Responding to a question about the actress, Bravo said, "Yeah, I'm really happy." Later that month, the Emily in Paris actor put his romance with Woodley on full display by going Instagram official with her. He shared photos from their trip to Slab City, Calif., with the caption, "Howdy Slab City 🌵" A source later told PEOPLE that Woodley and Bravo are "having a great time together." In May, the source said the pair had been consistently "traveling between the U.S. and France" to see each other ever since they were first photographed together in Paris in March. The insider added that "the relationship gives off a positive vibe" and that Bravo is "an attentive and sweet guy." "He makes Shailene very happy. They're having a great time together," the source said. The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! Bravo previously spoke about his perception on love during an October 2024 podcast appearance. On an episode of Podcrushed, Bravo opened up about why he is "fascinated with love." "Early on I discovered that it was the fastest way to grow up. It was the fastest way to accept some of the things you thought were issues, physically wise or mentally wise. To be able to be fully yourself in the presence of someone else, and to see that you're not a monster or you're not weird, it's mind-opening, it's crazy," he said. "This was the only thing I was interested in," he added. "I didn't see why I should spend any time on anything else than finding the most intense form of love possible."

NYC's hilarious ‘de-influencer' is the hero TikTok needs — and he's beating his phony foes at their own game
NYC's suffering from serious influence-a — and one man's hilarious TikTok videos could be the cure. After a divisive decade that saw the city fall under the spell of obnoxious influencers, an anonymous social media account administrator for a local, family-owned popcorn company has become the hero Gotham needs — delighting viewers with viral clips mocking the tiresome trend of crummy content creation. From faux-foodies to freebie-obsessed fashionistas, nobody's safe from the self-described 'de-influencer' in charge of the Daadi Snacks account, where the mystery man racks up scores of views on sarcastic send-ups of social media's worst offenders — all delivered in a dead-on rendition of the nasally, uptalky, vocally fried 'influencer voice' that's become the noxious norm. Typical methods clearly aren't for this unnamed marketing man turned app agitator — he's too busy snapping up new fans with satirical reactions aimed squarely at the hordes of entitled interlopers running amok on Big Apple streets. 'I'm literally shaking. They sent me an $80,000 car instead of a $120,000 car. I guess they do say God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers,' the popular pot-stirrer joked in his most successful video aimed at a typically tough-to-take over-sharer, with nearly 9 million views to date. Not only are the punny pushbacks from a formerly-unknown 'corn popper making people laugh, they're also helping him beat actual influencers at their own game. Since achieving newfound notoriety, the small company, which now has 300K followers on TikTok and another 150K on Instagram, has struggled to keep product in stock. Daadi Snacks offers vegan, all-natural popcorn — characterized by South Asian-inspired flavors like Sweet Chai and Spicy Masala, according to the brand. The Daadi Snacks-repping de-influencer explained that the family company was inspired by his grandmother's recipes. Instagram/daadisnacks The instigator claimed in a recent post that he's not in it for the content creation money, like most people posting to TikTok at this level — 'I post to speak my mind and help my family's snack biz,' he explained last May. For his trouble, the de-influencer says that he's received multiple cease and desist letters and several lawsuit threats from irate creators — apparently irked by his increasing popularity. And he's missing out on even more followers due to the nature of his content, he said. Though he takes down tacky TikTokkers from all over, his NYC-based videos are scoring well among fed-up local viewers. TikTok/@daadisnacks 'People unfollow me because they say I'm too mean to influencers, but I would argue I need to be meaner,' he mused in one video. Plenty appear to agree, with a recent Reddit thread heaping praise on the mystery man. 'I can imagine … a lot of toxic influencers choking on their matcha lattes searching their Balenciaga bags to reply on their smart phones adorned with cheap cubic zirconia crystals,' a poster snarked. ''Influencers are boring and unoriginal and can get bent,' another chimed in. The Post has reached out to Daadi Snacks for comment.

The Bellini Is a Classic for a Reason. This Version Is Subtly Superior.
We drank Bellinis at my wedding, so I've got a soft spot for them. The combination of Prosecco and peach purée contains a whole swirl of other associations, too. Giuseppe Cipriani invented the cocktail around 1948 at the legendary Harry's Bar in Venice, or so the story goes. Its pinkish hue reminded him of the translucent light in paintings by the Venetian artist Giovanni Bellini. I've heard inspiration came specifically from the San Zaccaria Altarpiece; now, every sip evokes violins, martyrs, vanishing points and the occasional beheading.
