OPI's New Nail Polish Dries in 60 Seconds — and a Wingstop Collaboration Aims to Prove It
OPI is already Super Bowl prepping — with a Wingstop collaboration, no less.
The nail polish brand and fast-food chain have teamed to launch a limited-edition 'Snack in :60' kit, complete with a $15 Wingstop gift card, a 60-second timer and two of OPI's new RapiDry polishes, which retail for $9.99 each and purport to dry within 60 seconds of application.

Launching Friday, the kits will be available for free at snackin60.com for as long as supplies last, aiming to encourage consumers to put the polishes' smudge-proof claims to the test.
The RapiDry polishes — which launched earlier this month — are OPI's first quick-drying lacquer that aims to combat what the brand has coined 'smudge-stration,' or the frustration consumers feel when nail polish dry time inhibits their to-do list.
'Using equipment from the wall paint industry to torture-test different formulas, we were able to scientifically evaluate the science of drying and smudging,' said Victoria Briand, R&D director, retail and color collections for OPI, adding the brand eventually nailed a formula balance of solvents and drying drops which allowed for a swift dry time, while maintaining color payoff.
The brands have tapped TikTok influencer Ashtin Earle to kick off the #Snackin60 challenge on social media.
'The challenge taps into this culture of creative snacking and content creation,' said Lori Pantel, chief marketing officer of OPI parent company Wella North America. 'It's built for shareable moments, easy participation and the perfect blend of beauty and fun.'
'We knew that combining forces with OPI would resonate deeply with our younger fans,' added Mark Christenson, Wingstop's chief revenue officer.
The partnership marks the latest in a string of food/beauty collaborations to hit the market: last year, Wonderskin and Chipotle teamed for an avocado-inspired 'Lipotle' lip stain, while Nails.Inc launched a limited-edition McDonald's collection.

Losing His Way Is Exactly What Former Falcons RB T.J. Duckett Needed To Find Peace
Losing His Way Is Exactly What Former Falcons RB T.J. Duckett Needed To Find Peace originally appeared on Athlon Sports. In 2009, after football had ended for T.J. Duckett, the former bruiser of a back, found himself wondering where time had gone and whether it was all really over. He did not know how to be an average human being outside of football, a game that was all he ever knew. Advertisement Since then, Duckett has found true happiness, learned to live without the crowd's roar, and become a philanthropist/entrepreneur who regularly speaks to student athletes as a motivational speaker. Former Falcons RB T.J. Duckett runs the ball against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Imagn Images (©) Copyright 2004 by Preston Mack Duckett would sit down with Josh Petry, a journalist at Athlon Sports and host of the "Nerdz Enigma" podcast on YouTube. Duckett would discuss being part of the "DVD" Era in Atlanta (Dunn, Vick, and Duckett), being passed on by the Cleveland Browns, and what life is like after football. One thing casual fans may not remember is that Duckett would run a 4.37 40-yard dash at his Michigan State Spartans pro day. All the while being just over six feet tall, and north of 260 pounds. Advertisement When asked about his being a bruising running back yet having that type of speed, he would say, "God-given blessed speed, you know! My dad is a track coach, and he's been coaching high school track for 56 years. I grew up around track, so I knew the importance of stretching and getting your knees up. I became a track runner at 250-260." When Duckett was asked about expecting to go number 16 in the NFL Draft to the Cleveland Browns, only for Cleveland to take another running back, then going 18th to Atlanta. Was that water under the bridge due to the better situation in Atlanta? Or did you want to make them pay whenever you had the chance to play them? "It was water under the bridge, you know, that NFL Draft, there is no telling where you're going to go. You may have an idea, but it's so unpredictable. I thought that I would go to Cleveland, Atlanta had just gotten Warrick Dunn, so I'm starting to look at the teams, and there isn't much room for a big running back like myself." "When I got that call, it wasn't about making anybody pay; It's like, I get to live my dream now." Advertisement Duckett struggled after football, and was asked if losing his way was exactly what he needed to find that peace in his life, and he would say, "Yeah, it's not necessarily about losing my way, it's about what I want. But, it's so much bigger than you, and I like to control the situation, but you find yourself asking, This is what I want, so why didn't I win a Super Bowl. Life is meant to be lived, and it will unfold how you keep testing if what is inside you scares you." Duckett's website originated through his non-profit "New World Flood." Flooding the world through giving and service, a single raindrop at a time.

Is Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's Daughter, Zahara, Engaged? Here's What We Know
On June 9, 2025, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's daughter, Zahara, was spotted wearing a diamond on her left ring finger, sparking engagement rumors. The college student appeared alongside Elijah Cooper in West Hollywood, California. The two have yet to confirm a romantic Pitt and Angelina Jolie may have called it quits in 2016, but their daughter, Zahara, is now sparking her own engagement rumors. On June 9, 2025, the college student was spotted wearing a diamond on her left ring finger, according to photos published by Page Six. Zahara donned the sparkler while exiting Craig's, a restaurant in West Hollywood, California, alongside Elijah Cooper. While it's unclear whether the two are in a romantic relationship, they attend two schools in close proximity to each other in Atlanta, Georgia: Zahara is enrolled at Spelman College while Elijah attends Morehouse College. In addition to the diamond ring, Zahara donned a black tank top, white cardigan, black slacks, and white sandals for the outing. She accessorized her look with an oversized brown bag, a simple necklace, and an Atlanta Braves baseball cap. Elijah appeared to coordinate with his dinner partner, wearing a backward white hat and a green-hued retro-inspired T-shirt with white detailing. As a student at Spelman, Zahara has been active in a number of organizations, including the college's chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha. In March of this year, she was appointed to be the keynote speaker at the Women in Training Inc.'s Mother-Daughter Brunch in Alabama, and Angelina made sure to show her support for her daughter by attending the gathering. During her speech, the student spoke of the need to end period poverty. Just a few months earlier, in January, Zahara appeared alongside her mother—and her other siblings—in Los Angeles in an effort to give back to the families affected by the wildfires in the city. She also attended the Golden Globes and the Palm Springs International Film Awards alongside her mother that same month. For the two red-carpet moments, the student donned a white-hued gown, a possible hint at her status as a soon-to-be bride.

The move came just months after her sister, Shiloh, filed legal paperwork to do the same. "My name is Zahara Marley Jolie," the student said in a clip posted by Essence. "Coming all the way from the Golden State in the city that is full of angels, Los Angeles, California…I am this line's number seven." Another one of the duo's siblings, Vivienne, also appeared to drop her father's last name. When working as a production assistant on The Outsiders, a Broadway play produced by her mother, she was credited in the playbill as "Vivienne Jolie," according to Us Weekly.
