Why Elf Beauty is banking big on Rhode, Hailey Bieber's fan-favourite brand
A Rhode pop-up sells products from the beauty brand founded by Hailey Bieber, the fashion model, entrepreneur and wife of pop star Justin Bieber, in New York. Photo: The New York Times Rhode, the upstart beauty brand founded by fashion model and entrepreneur Hailey Bieber, has been acquired by Elf Beauty for US$800mil (approximately RM3.4bil) in cash and stock, an eye-popping sum for a line of blushes and lip glosses that's not yet three years old. In an industry crowded with other celebrity-fronted beauty brands, Rhode has experienced rapid growth, which many attribute to Hailey's considerable influence on social media. Hailey, a daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin and the wife of pop star Justin Bieber, has 55 million followers on Instagram and 15 million on TikTok. 'Rhode has seen exponential growth over the past three years because of deliberate decisions and best-in-class marketing and community building,' Hailey said in a statement. 'To continue to grow strategically, we need the partnership of Elf. Beauty to fuel innovation and global expansion.' On top of the guaranteed US$800mil (RM3.4bil) payout, the Elf deal, which was announced Wednesday (May 28), includes the potential for an additional US$200mil (RM850mil), contingent on Rhode's growth over the next three years. Rhode, which Hailey founded with Lauren and Michael D Ratner, reported net sales of US$212mil (RM901mil) in the year that ended March 31.

Amin said he was eager to close on it to marry the Generation Alpha fans Hailey has pulled in with the Millennials and Gen Z consumers whom Elf has traditionally relied on. The expansion includes a partnership with Sephora that will bring Rhode products to physical stores for the first time since the brand's debut. But even without a consistent presence in brick-and-mortar shops, Rhode had built a fan base that Amin found impressive. 'I have not seen another brand where there are communities waiting, or a pop-up event in LA (Los Angeles), willing to camp out overnight for 14 hours in line – not just for product, but to buy into the entire lifestyle,' Amin said in a video interview Thursday (May 29). Last summer, hundreds waited in line in New York to experience the Rhode pop-up – and possibly get a glimpse of Hailey – in a SoHo storefront. Amin said he admired Rhode's ability to 'engage and entertain' its customer base. Compared with Elf, he added: 'They skew younger, but their level of engagement is what really appeals to me.' As part of the deal, Hailey will stay on at Rhode as the brand's chief creative officer, and she will serve as a strategic adviser to both companies. Korinne Wolfmeyer, a senior research analyst at investment bank Piper Sandler who specialises in the beauty and wellness markets, believes that Hailey's ability to translate her connection with her fans into sales is what most aligns with Elf's strategic priorities. Read more: 'I want to be everywhere possible': Hailey Bieber plans on beauty world takeover 'It seems like they really appreciate the way Hailey connects with her followers and her community,' Wolfmeyer said. 'They view it as a similar path as Elf, using that consumer connection to really drive the performance.' While celebrity brands like Kylie Jenner's Kylie Cosmetics and Selena Gomez's Rare Beauty have proved to be significant players in the cosmetics industry, Hailey's fame may not be the biggest attraction for Elf Beauty. Celebrities bring a lot of reputational and trend risk, and companies are usually wary of how much they invest in their brands, Wolfmeyer said. But unlike other beauty companies, Rhode also veers into wellness, marketing many of its products with claims that they promote skin health. 'Rhode was maybe one of the earlier movers in that category,' Wolfmeyer said. 'There is obviously a lot of white-space potential, and it does resonate with the younger consumers. I think that's very appealing.' – ©2025 The New York Times Company This article originally appeared in The New York Times.

Actress Daphne Low suffers first-degree burn from curling iron in stylist mishap
Taiwan-based Malaysian actress Daphne Low has accused a hair salon in Taipei of unprofessionalism and negligence. Photos: Daphne Low/Instagram Taiwan-based Malaysian actress Daphne Low recently took to social media to call out a hair salon in Taipei for its unprofessionalism and negligence. In a lengthy Instagram post on Wednesday (May 28), Low, 31, revealed that she had suffered a first-degree burn on her left cheekbone from a curling iron in a stylist mishap last month. 'During the session, due to the stylist's error, a curling iron heated to nearly 200°C slipped from a height and landed directly on my left cheekbone before falling onto my thigh. 'As an artiste who regularly undergoes styling, I've never encountered such an outrageous accident. I was in so much pain but remained calm and didn't lash out at the staff,' she wrote, adding that the employees gave her an ice pack to relieve the pain. While the salon waived the session fee and gave her a discount voucher for the next visit, Low didn't dare return. 'The next day, there was visible swelling and redness below my left brow and around my eye. It was worse than I imagined. I went to a clinic right away, and the doctor diagnosed it as a first-degree burn,' she said. While not the most serious type of burn, Low expressed concern over the risk of scarring – a potential career setback for an actress. The Ola Bola (2016) star alleged that when she informed the salon she would follow up after her medical consultation, a staff member assured her they would stay in touch. Although the actress initially intended to resolve the matter in private, she chose to publicise it after claiming that none of the staff had responded to her concerns for over a month. 'I have always advocated for harmony and am well aware of the challenges in the service industry. 'If the salon hadn't given me the cold shoulder for over a month, I never would've made it public,' she wrote. View this post on Instagram A post shared by 劉倩妏 Daphne (@daphnelaven)

Miss Grand International 2024 termination sparks online backlash
Rachel Gupta, 21, is an Indian model and beauty queen who made history as the first Indian to win the Miss Grand International title in 2024. Prior to this, she was crowned Miss Grand India 2024 and Miss Super Talent of the World 2022. - Photo: The Nation/ANN NEW DELHI: Rachel Gupta, the 21-year-old model from Jalandhar who made history by becoming the first Indian to win the Miss Grand International title in 2024, has now relinquished her crown — just seven months into her reign. However, the organisers mentioned that her title has been revoked, adding that 'the crown be returned to the MGI Head Office within 30 days from the date of this notice.' The organisation's head office is in Bangkok. The announcement quickly went viral, as it is rare for a titleholder to be dethroned mid-reign. Netizens swiftly began digging into the controversy, speculating and exposing alleged details. Theories ranged from breaches of discipline and inappropriate behaviour to long-standing internal issues dating back to the day she was crowned. Some even linked the dismissal to potential breaches of contract or silent defiance of the organisation's policies. Fans have rallied behind Gupta, pushing the hashtag #JusticeForRachel to trend in several countries, while demanding a clearer explanation from the pageant organisation. - Photo: Instagram On Wednesday (May 28), Rachel announced her resignation on Instagram, citing 'broken promises, mistreatment and a toxic environment.' Gupta addressed the situation via Instagram, stating: 'To all my supporters around the world: I'm truly sorry if this news has disappointed you. Please know this wasn't an easy decision, but it was the right one for me.' 'The truth will come out very soon. I love you all more than words can express. Thank you for standing by me.' The following day, she released a YouTube video titled 'The Truth about Miss Grand International — My Story,' in which she offered an unfiltered account of her experience, levelling disturbing allegations against the pageant's organisers. However, on its official Instagram page, Miss Grand International released a statement mentioning that Rachel's title was revoked due to 'her failure to fulfill her assigned duties, engagement in external projects without prior approval from the organisation, and her refusal to participate in the scheduled trip to Guatemala.' 'Miss Rachel Gupta is no longer authorized to use the title or wear the crown associated with Miss Grand International 2024,' it added. - Photo: The Nation/ANN Long-term impact of such experiences on mental health and self-worth Gurleen Baruah, existential psychotherapist at That Culture Thing, tells 'In such environments, a woman's body becomes a product to be displayed, measured, and controlled. Over time, this relentless pressure can lead to internalised perfectionism, body dysmorphia, disordered eating, and a haunting belief that love, success, or safety depends entirely on how you look.' What makes it even more harmful is the emotional isolation. Baruah explains that when you're surrounded by glamour but deprived of real support or autonomy, self-doubt turns into quiet self-rejection. Signs that someone might be trapped in a toxic or exploitative environment One of the clearest signs of a toxic or exploitative environment is the loss of personal autonomy. Baruah states, 'When adults are denied access to essentials, and expected to perform happiness while privately struggling, it starts to mirror cult-like dynamics. Subservience is rewarded, dissent is punished, and over time, the person may begin to question their own judgement.' Seeking help in these situations is hard, especially when power dynamics are steep and isolation is enforced. But even the smallest act of reaching out — whether it's talking to a trusted family member, quietly messaging a friend, or contacting a support organisation — can begin to break the silence. - Agencies
