Shop Dua Lipa's Belted Black With Jéan Dress
Dua Lipa took a break from her Radical Optimism Tour to share some cute pics from her week, including 1) a cheesy sandwich that I will be attempting to recreate later today, 2) a photo of her and Callum Turner starring that glittery diamond on that finger, and 3) a mirror selfie featuring a belted black dress that I need in my life immediately.
Swipe ^ but also here you go:
And happy news: not only is this dress still available in most sizes, it's from Australian brand With Jéan (a fave of Dua's) and is under $200.
It's also available in more sizes over at Revolve.
Real quick before you abandon us to go buy that dress, here's that aforementioned photo of Dua and Callum being adorable:
These two tend to be relatively private about their relationship (minus plenty of pics), but back in 2024 a source dished to Us Weekly that "Callum is really the first serious relationship she's had in the past few years." They added that "Dua and Callum spend almost all their time together and are nearly inseparable. They have a very balanced energy and Dua couldn't be happier than she is with Callum."
The couple also made a rare and very loved-up red carpet appearance at the Met Gala earlier this month (click below for pics), but have yet to confirm their rumored engagement. Though, honestly, the giant ring on Dua's finger kinda speaks for itself!

Callan Ward turning heartbreak into inspiration sums up all that is wonderful about AFL
AFL chief executive Andrew Dillon would have to rank among the most wooden media performers I have seen or heard. Many in the industry speak highly of him and his ability to distil and diffuse, the sort of operator every leader wants by their side. But he is no frontman. Last week, he did the radio rounds justifying the latest executive shakeup. As always, it sounded like he was reading off well-thumbed, suggested speaking notes. Look, he droned; crowds, ratings and revenue are all up – we're doing so much right! It was an AI response to a very human sport. The best of Australian rules football can't be explained in media releases, or in org charts, or in SEN Fireball Friday hot takes. The best of this sport can be found at the grassroots level, or on hall of fame night, or in thousands of little moments around the country each weekend. Advertisement Related: From the Pocket: AFL players are taught to conquer their fears but some need saving from themselves One of those occurred late on Saturday afternoon, in front of bugger all people, in a part of the country where footy hasn't yet taken hold. The best of the sport was probably the worst moment of Callan Ward's career. The GWS Giants inaugural co-captain lay on a massage table, sobbing. Lachie Whitfield, a teammate of 13 years, crouched down to Ward's level, hugged him, and kissed him on the cheek. Sentimental slop, you may say, and it is to a degree. But in an industry of grind and grift, it was a tender, human moment that said a lot about both the injured player and his club. When Ward first went to Greater Western Sydney, some saw him as a traitor. He had grown up in Melbourne's inner west, the son of a man who played VFA for Yarraville and the grandson of a former South Melbourne captain. He was booed by Western Bulldogs supporters when he was still playing for them. The Herald Sun devoted its front page to the story, under the headline 'Money Rules', with a photo of Ward's mother Kerri and his three sisters holding a framed photo of their brother in action for the Bulldogs. Don't blame Callan, his mum said. Blame the AFL. 'The days of the one-club player are really dying out, particularly when you have clubs being set up like this where they come along and offer ludicrous amounts of money to play football.' But Ward was no cheque collector, no mercenary and no flight risk. There was a swagger, a competitiveness and a camaraderie at the Giants that was distinct from what the Gold Coast cultivated. No one personified that refusal to yield more than Ward. Even when they were being trounced by 20 goals, they'd be mouthing off, putting their heads over the ball, and rallying around one another. Yes, plenty of players left to return to their home state, but they never had the player drain of the Suns, especially among their leaders. Advertisement There were a lot of flashy, preternaturally talented players on that list. But Ward was a proper footballer. He didn't do many interviews, didn't rant or rave, and was a completely different personality to his co-captain Phil Davis. But he was the sort of leader people were drawn to and rallied around. He was rarely out of the top half dozen players. He was a reliable big game performer. He excelled in the often brutal Sydney derbies. But there was more to his game than a headfirst bulldozer. Martial artists often speak of 'heavy hips and light feet' and Ward had the ability to get down low, to evenly distribute his weight over the ball, and accelerate out of a stoppage. Ward has had some rotten luck. He played in five losing preliminary finals, and several of them could have gone either way. In the 2016 preliminary final, one of the best games of this era, his head collided with Zaine Cordy's knee and he was left twitching on the turf. He wrecked his knee early in the 2019 season, the only year the Giants have played off in a grand final. Late in last year's qualifying final, another classic, he charged through a stoppage, split a pair of Swans and banana kicked a goal to put them up by two majors. But the Giants lost that game and coughed up a seven-goal lead to eventual premiers Brisbane a week later, putting Ward's retirement plans on hold. He's been a remote footballer this year, living in separate states to his wife and his three gloriously named sons, Romeo, Ralfie, and Rex. There have been better and more talented footballers than Callan Ward. There have been footballers with more accolades, blazers, votes and medallions. There have been footballers who racked up bigger numbers, who looked better on a stats sheet. But there aren't many footballers who've been more admired, or meant more to a single club. His injury and his three-quarter time address summed up everything that is hard and wonderful and meaningful about the sport. They were moments where football spoke for itself, where nothing needed to be defended, or sold, or spun.

'Talk to Me' directors tackle grief and gore with 'Bring Her Back'
'Talk to Me' directors tackle grief and gore with 'Bring Her Back' Show Caption Hide Caption 'Bring Her Back' trailer: Sally Hawkins is a secretive foster mom A foster mother (Sally Hawkins) takes in two siblings after the death of their father but also harbors a dark secret in horror movie "Bring Her Back." Spoiler alert! We're discussing important plot points and the ending of "Bring Her Back" (in theaters now), so beware if you haven't seen it yet. Making a visceral, gory, emotional roller coaster of a horror film is a good way to navigate some personal tragedy. Three years after scaring the summer box office with the hit 'Talk to Me,' Australian filmmakers (and twin brothers) Danny and Michael Philippou return with another, very different possession film. 'Bring Her Back' was already on tap to tackle grief, love and cycles of abuse when a family friend of the Philippous died before filming started. Their "sadness" affected the movie, though they turned into a positive, Danny Philippou says. 'It is so therapeutic. It did feel like saying goodbye.' Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox 'Bring Her Back' stars Sally Hawkins as Laura, a social worker and foster mom who takes in Andy (Billy Barratt) and his visually impaired younger sister Piper (Sora Wong) after their father dies. But Andy discovers something stranger than the weird white painted circle around the house: Laura is using her foster son Oliver (Jonah Wren Phillips) as a conduit for a supernatural being to resurrect her recently drowned daughter Cathy. (Her exhumed corpse is lying in a shed out back. We'll get to why in a bit.) The Philippous dig into how they pulled off the gnarliest scenes, why the ending changed and how 'Bring Her Back' connects to 'Talk to Me': Jonah Wren Phillips gets the most squirm-inducing moments in 'Bring Her Back' 'Talk to Me' showcased the brothers' gift for gore, and 'Bring Her Back' takes it to a whole other hide-your-eyes level as the possessed Oliver begins to act out in terrifying fashion. First, he grabs a butcher's knife and tries to eat it, leaving his mouth a bloody, scraggly toothed disaster. In that sequence, a rubber knife was used with a fake head, though 'it's the sound design that really sells it, which was me actually chewing on a knife,' Danny Philippou explains. And then the hungry child begins to chow down on the countertop, taking out huge pieces with what's left of his teeth. The filmmakers let Phillips go to town on super-soft custom-made balsa wood laced with chocolate. He's 'the toughest kid ever,' Philippou says. "Every day he came to a set with a smile on his face.' Sally Hawkins' occult-leaning mom has a ritualistic reveal Laura has somehow obtained mysterious VHS tapes with grainy footage of people creepily coming back to life, and subtitles explain to the secret to her plan. The possessed person consumes the soul of a deceased person (Oliver eating Cathy), and a third body (Piper) can become the host for the dead by repeating the manner of death and having the possessed regurgitate the soul into it. Laura also has a healthier way to grieve – watching home movies of Cathy – and Danny Philippou says these found tapes are 'an inversion" of that. (He and his brother built out a lore and backstory by reaching out to real occultists.) Like the teens using an embalmed hand to conjure dark spirits in 'Talk to Me,' 'Laura's completely out of her depth,' Philippou adds. 'She's struggling with what she's doing, and doesn't even 100% know how to execute it.' The death of a friend changed the 'Bring Her Back' ending In the film's climax, Andy tries to show another social worker that Laura's out of her mind, but Laura murders them both, desperate to complete the ritual. She attempts to drown Piper in the backyard pool but when the frightened young girl yells "Mom," Laura can't do it and stops the ritual. Piper escapes and when she's confronted by Oliver, she kicks him in his bloated belly, and she runs off as Oliver pukes brown muck that's assumably Cathy's soul. Piper is picked up by some good samaritans, the cops find Laura embracing her daughter's corpse, and Oliver escapes the white circle surrounding the property, freeing him from possession. 'The sad part is he's going to be scarred for life,' Danny Philippou says. Michael Philippou reveals that they considered 'a few different endings,' including one where Cathy actually did end up in Piper's body. But a bigger, scarier planned finale was scrapped when their friend died and it switched to a more emotional one. (The end of the movie includes a dedication to Harley Wallace.) 'Death is really unfair and it's really sudden. People don't get a resolution,' Danny Philippou says. 'Harley died at 22, 23. His story wasn't finished." The film's ending "goes against the conventions a little bit but it feels more true to life.' Is 'Bring Her Back' a sequel to 'Talk to Me'? No, but they're connected! 'Talk to Me' puts social-media spin on the possession film Sophie Wilde stars as a youngster haunted by dark visions after she allows a spirit to possess her body in the Australian horror movie "Talk to Me." USA TODAY The Philippous want to do a third horror movie and are currently 60% done with a documentary about death match wrestling. They're also writing a sequel to 'Talk to Me,' and Danny Philippou says he's found a 'small way' to tie their breakthrough hit with "Bring Her Back" where they exist in the same world. (He hints that something is coming soon that will tease that connection.) 'It all happens on this one street,' Michael quips. 'Don't buy a house in that neighborhood!' Danny warns, laughing. The demons that possess people in 'Talk to Me' are predatory spirits and lost souls. But in 'Bring Her Back,' Laura says it's an angel that's in Oliver, and the Philippous tend to agree. 'Oliver is not good or bad,' Michael says. 'He's committing this miracle. He's bringing back a lost loved one.' Also, 'he's not there with evil intentions,' Danny adds. 'He's like a genie in a bottle. You rub the lamp, he's going to come out.'

‘Vogue' Editor Who Trump Has Raged at Spotted at White House
A fashion icon was spotted at the White House this week—putting ICE Barbie Kristi Noem to shame. Anna Wintour, the world-famous Vogue editor, rolled up to the South Lawn sporting her perfectly sleek bob and equipped with a mission: to discuss the impact of President Donald Trump's tariffs on the fashion industry. She was not, however, there to end the feud between her and First Lady Melania Trump and finally give her a spot on the cover. Wintour was flanked by two other industry legends: Steven Kolb, CEO of the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA), and Stephen Lamar, president and CEO of the American Apparel & Footwear Association (AAFA). The Trumps opened their home for the party, even though Wintour has famously snubbed the pair on more than one occasion. Melania and Wintour share a host of similarities: both are foreign-born, cold and commanding figures who have an affection for Italian designers. For a while, the two seemed to get along fine: before his presidential run, Trump and his wife were routinely invited to the Met Gala and other Vogue events. Melania even graced the cover of Vogue in 2005 wearing her wedding dress. But things changed once Trump was elected. In October 2017, Wintour vowed she would 'never' invite Trump back to the Met Gala. And unlike former First Ladies Jill Biden and Michelle Obama, Wintour pointedly chose not to put Melania on the cover of Vogue. Wintour arrived in Washington, D.C. to meet with Susie Wiles, Trump's chief of staff, in the hopes of finding relief for the heavily tariffed, $500 billion fashion industry. The industry, which supports 10 million jobs nationwide, has borne a large brunt of Trump's attacks. Right now, the average tax on fashion items is nearly 13 percent. And even though the products only make up approximately 5 percent of what the U.S. imports, they are responsible for over a quarter of the total tariffs collected. Since the fashion industry is already so heavily taxed, the three industry leaders told Wiles the extra tariffs would only put the fashion industry at a disproportionate disadvantage. Wintour, a proud Democrat, was there to say her piece—and butter up to the Trump administration—despite the ongoing feud with Melania. According to Wintour's biographer, Amy Odell, Vogue twice tried to photograph Melania during Trump's first term. She declined both times when she learned it would not guarantee her a cover feature. Immediately after Melania posed for her first White House official portrait, wearing a black Dolce & Gabbana business suit, Vogue published a scathing article saying that the outfit made Melania appear 'more like a freelance magician than a public servant.' 'Trump looked more like she was guest-starring on an episode of The Apprentice than assuming the role of First Lady of the United States,' wrote Vogue's Hannah Jackson. Republicans fell in line to support Melania. Melania's friend, Bill White, wrote on X: 'We cherish and support [Melania]. We've decided to cancel all our subscriptions to Condé NASTY. I urge everyone who loves America to join us in this action.' Melania's former confidante, Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, wrote a book that shone a light on the depth of the rivalry: 'I don't give a f--- about Vogue or any other magazine," Melania allegedly said. 'They would never put me on the cover. All these people are so mad.' The drama extends to the president, too. According to Odell, when Wintour came to visit Trump in New York in 2016, after he won the election, he reportedly felt 'offended' that nobody told him ahead of time. He was so upset he 'didn't even say hello.'
