Gigi Hadid Calls Bradley Cooper's Relationship ‘Very Romantic'
Here is what Hadid said about her relationship.
Gigi Hadid has spoken for the first time about her relationship with boyfriend Bradley Cooper, describing it as both 'very romantic and happy.' In an interview with Vogue, the model spoke about how much she respects the Star is Born actor as a creative and how his encouragement has helped her grow. She explained, 'For those people you admire to encourage you, it can create so much belief in yourself. Like, what's the worst thing if I auditioned for this? You jump and take the leap.'
Hadid revealed that they first crossed paths at one of their friends' kid's birthday party. Talking about their relationship, she said, 'I think just getting to the point where knowing what you want and deserve in a relationship is essential.' Having grown up in the public eye, Hadid understands that media speculation is unavoidable and has learned to ignore rumors rather than constantly trying to 'correct' them.
One of the ways Cooper influenced Hadid was by reintroducing her to theater. Despite both being high-profile celebrities, they try to maintain a sense of normalcy in their dating life. Hadid acknowledged the challenges of privacy and security, explaining that even non-famous friends struggle with dating in today's world. She added, 'You want to believe that people are going to have your back and not call TMZ or go on Deuxmoi or whatever, but you just don't know.' The model concluded by saying that she is 'lucky.'

‘Ketamine Queen' to plead guilty to federal charges, selling drug that killed Matthew Perry
A drug dealer dubbed the 'Ketamine Queen' has agreed to plead guilty to five federal criminal charges, including that she provided the drug that ultimately led actor Matthew Perry to suffer a fatal overdose in October 2023, federal prosecutors announced Monday. Jasveen Sangha, 42, also admitted in her plea agreement to selling four vials of ketamine to Cody McLaury in August 2019. McLaury, 33, died hours later in his Los Angeles home from a drug overdose that included ketamine. Sangha agreed to plead guilty to one count of maintaining a drug-involved premises, three counts of distribution of ketamine, and one count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death or serious bodily injury. She was one of five people charged with conspiracy to distribute ketamine to Perry, who died from acute effects of the drug. Sangha supplied the ketamine the 'Friends' actor injected on the day of his death, according to the plea agreement, which also noted that she sold drugs for years out of her North Hollywood apartment, described in a federal indictment as the 'Sangha stash house.' As part of a deal struck with federal prosecutors, Sangha admitted to knowingly distributing ketamine to Perry, whose struggles with drug addiction and numerous rehab visits were well documented. Mark Geragos, one of Sangha's lawyers, said 'my client is accepting her responsibilities.' She faces up to 65 years in prison based on the plea agreement. Federal prosecutors, however, said in the plea agreement that, if she accepts responsibility, they could seek to lessen time served. Prosecutors declined to comment on the case. Sangha is expected to formally enter a guilty plea in coming weeks. Perry, who had become addicted to intravenous ketamine, started purchasing the powerful drug from a Southern California doctor in late September 2023, according to the indictment and law enforcement officials. A month later, Perry reached out to an acquaintance, Erik Fleming, a former producer and drug counseling worker. According to her plea agreement, Sangha worked with Fleming, 55, of Hawthorne to knowingly distribute ketamine to Perry. In October 2023, Sangha and Fleming sold Perry 51 vials of ketamine, which were provided to Kenneth Iwamasa, Perry's live-in personal assistant. Iwamasa, a 60-year-old from Toluca Lake, repeatedly injected Perry with the ketamine that Sangha supplied to Fleming. On the day Perry died in his ocean-view hot tub, Iwamasa had injected him with at least three shots of Sangha's ketamine, according to the plea agreement. Shortly after the Los Angeles Times and TMZ published news of Perry's death, according to the plea agreement, Sangha called Fleming on the encrypted messaging app Signal to discuss how to distance themselves from it. That day, Sangha updated the settings on the Signal apps to automatically delete her messages with Fleming. She further instructed Fleming, 'Delete all our messages.' Two days after Perry's death, Fleming left Sangha a voicemail on Signal and texted, 'Please call ... Got more info and want to bounce ideas off you. I'm 90% sure everyone is protected. I never dealt with [Perry]. Only his Assistant. So the Assistant was the enabler. Also they are doing a 3 month tox screening ... Does K stay in your system or is it immediately flushed out[?].' Sangha, who has been in custody for the past year, faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison on the drug-involved premises count, up to 10 years for each ketamine distribution count and up to 15 years for the count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death or serious bodily injury. As part of the formal guilty plea in the coming weeks, she will also admit to using her North Hollywood residence to store, package, and distribute narcotics since at least June 2019. Prosecutors allege Sangha knew the dangers of ketamine. In August 2019, she allegedly sold the drug to McLaury before he overdosed, according to the plea agreement. One of McLaury's family members later sent her a text saying the ketamine had resulted in his death. After receiving the text, prosecutors say, she conducted a Google search: 'Can ketamine be listed as a cause of death?' In an affidavit, a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent described Sangha as a 'high-volume dealer' who kept 'handwritten notes that appeared to detail thousands of dollars of drug transactions.' In multiple chat threads with clients on encrypted messaging apps, she used coded language for drug transactions, according to the agent. She referred to her supplier as the 'master chef' or the 'scientist,' prosecutors wrote in a court complaint detailing the case. Her electronic devices included saved videos of her cooking liquid ketamine on a stovetop to convert it to powder, prosecutors say. In addition to Sangha, four others have already pleaded guilty to federal charges for their roles in Perry's death. Fleming has pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute ketamine and one count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death. At a November sentencing, he will face up to 25 years in federal prison. Iwamasa pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute ketamine and causing death. At his sentencing Nov. 19, he will face up to 15 years in federal prison. Ketamine is typically used as an anesthetic but has grown in popularity over the last decade as a therapeutic treatment for certain mental health diagnoses, including post-traumatic stress disorder and depression. The drug, known in the party scene as 'Special K,' has simultaneously become much more sought-after for recreational purposes. Two physicians who also helped supply Perry with ketamine are awaiting sentencing. Dr. Mark Chavez, 55, of San Diego pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute ketamine. He faces up to 10 years in federal prison at his sentencing hearing next month. Salvador Plasencia, 43, a.k.a. 'Dr. P,' pleaded guilty July 23 to four counts of distribution of ketamine. His sentencing hearing is scheduled for December, at which time he will face up to 10 years in federal prison for each count.

8 Fall 2025 Trends Vogue Editors Are Already Shopping
The thrill of summer comes in like a lion, and fizzles out softly like a lamb. The heat, and all the glorious activities that come with it, inspire us to dress in vivid sunset-adjacent colors, explore unique locations, and spend languid afternoons drenched in silk, cotton-poplin, and coastal prep garb. But, for the fashion set, there is always that itch we can't wait to scratch. It comes in the form of fall/winter 2025's biggest trends. Our fall fashion trend report showcased a plethora of keynotes for the season—but as the weather changes, we're always wondering what trends, both runway-approved and street style-inspired, made the employees at Vogue giddy with excitement. For starters, you'll find the classic responses that always circle back come autumn. Standout outerwear for when the temperatures dip; for some (myself included), the best time of the year is when that first coat gets removed from storage. Others are excited for those statement-makers, like fringe skirts and pops of red. Some are steadfast in their desire for a minimalist take on maximalism. We're talking draped skirts, fringe-embellished dresses, and satin maxis. Bohemian tones found their way into the new season with even more of a wandering spirit, while curved silhouettes went against the grain and found fresh ways to invigorate blazers, pants, and even footwear. From collarless coats to all things suede, discover the seasonal favorites topping Vogue editors' fall wish lists, and the pieces to shop right now. Photo: Umberto Fratini / The Statement Skirt 'I normally favor skirts in the summer, but the fall collections showed elevated midis in wealth of textures—calf-hair, fringe, tweed—fit for transitioning into the new season. Let these be the statement pieces to anchor your look around.' —Lisa Aiken, executive fashion director Loulou de Saison Myra wrap-effect calf hair midi skirt $835 NET-A-PORTER Proenza Schouler Amery draped twill midi skirt $890 NET-A-PORTER Photo: Courtesy of Toteme The Collarless Coat 'My favorite thing about fall is a one-and-done coat. Something you can whip on over your entire outfit and feel confident, dressed, and like whatever you're wearing underneath doesn't matter. After seasons of buying masculine tailored coats and oversized shapes, I love the more ladylike collarless coats that came through on the fall runways, like this style from Toteme. The shearling fabric makes it feel so rich and full of texture. It somehow feels smart and casual all at one?!' —Libby Jane Page, executive shopping director Photo: Courtesy of Alaïa Photo: Daniele Oberrauch / Maximalism for Minimalists I'm a minimalist at heart, but that doesn't mean I don't crave texture or bold details. Come fall, I'll be embracing maximalist touches in minimalist-friendly silhouettes; staying true to my uniform of simple separates while incorporating personality-driven accents, be it through draping, fringe, or dramatic pleating. —Madeline Fass, associate director, fashion Toteme cocoon scarf dress $1,020 SSENSE Violante Nessi Gentileschi pleated paneled satin maxi skirt $965 NET-A-PORTER Photo: Umberto Fratini / Bohemian Styles 'If you ask me, the only cure to the end-of-summer blues is to simply dress as if you're still on vacation. Bohemian-inspired pieces, with their languid silhouettes and flowy fabrications, perfectly capture the nomadic spirit that prevailed at Dries Van Noten and Chloé. And piling on pendants might just be one of the truest expressions of personal style: each charm, shell, or stone reveals something uniquely about you. I wonder what my coworkers will think about a horn tooth dangling from my neck… ' — Talia Abbas, associate director, shopping Photo: Umberto Fratini / A Pop of Red 'I'd say red is back, but did it ever really leave? We saw it presented head-to-toe in some pre-fall collections, but I found it most inspiring when it was used to balance out curious color combinations. It took on an alchemical quality at Tory Burch, where a flash of red anchored mint and olive green suiting. If the primary hue feels bold enough as is, style it next to brown or navy for an energized take on minimalist-friendly neutrals.' —Talia Abbas, associate director, shopping Loulou de Saison Jada maxi dress $320 NORDSTROM Madewell compact shell tank top $38 MADEWELL Photo: Daniele Oberrauch / All Things Suede 'There are so many reasons why I look forward to fall: the crisp morning walks to the subway, my mother-in-law's famous pies, and the opportunity to wear head-to-toe suede. Sumptuous, mysterious, and elegant, you can't go wrong with the endless versatility of suede. Plus, everything gets an effortless upgrade when cast in the fabric. Button-up shirts, midiskirts, shirt dresses, and kitten heels—all fabulous in suede!' —Cortne Bonilla, senior shopping writer Stouls Becky suede midi shirt dress $2,285 NET-A-PORTER The Row Bindle small suede shoulder bag $950 NET-A-PORTER Photo: Courtesy of Givenchy Curved Shapes 'Fashion has embraced silhouettes that highlight fluidity and softness, all at once. Soft shoulders, flowing hemlines, and cinched waists bring elegance to every ensemble, especially when designed in fabrics like velvet, wool, and cashmere. Modern and graceful, I can't think of any fall trend I'd rather wear more day-to-day. The hallmarks of well-rounded wardrobe.' —Cortne Bonilla, senior shopping writer Photo: Isidore Montag / Photo: Isidore Montag / The Faux Fur Coat 'Disliking winter is one of my personality traits, and on especially cold days, the only thing that sees me through is the promise of wearing an extremely fab faux fur coat. I was delighted to see so many on the fall runways; I'll likely be treating myself to one in the months to come.' —Leah Faye Cooper, digital style director

Paulina Porizkova on ‘The Golden Bachelor' and Hollywood's blind spot when it comes to gray dating
The supermodel talks about what finding love again at 60 has looked like for her. First things first: Paulina Porizkova is not interested in being a Golden Bachelor contestant. The supermodel is newly engaged to TV writer Jeff Greenstein, so she's off the market. But when the new season lead of The Bachelor franchise spin-off, Mel Owens, shared his criteria of acceptable women he was interested in dating on the show, Porizkova, on paper, would have been disqualified by his standards. She's graced the covers of Vogue, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit and countless other publications; she is also 60 and had double hip replacement surgery in 2024. But more: She has become an important voice in redefining aging. The No Filter: The Good, the Bad and the Beautiful author is outspoken about challenging outdated beauty ideals and calling out persistent double standards. So we brought The Bachelor brouhaha to her. It all started when Owens, a 66-year-old former NFL player turned attorney, said on the In the Trenches sports podcast in June that he prefers to date women ages '45 to 60,' and told producers, 'If they're 60 or over, I'm cutting them.' He also told them 'to try to stay away from the artificial hips' too. Owens has since walked back his comments, which sparked a backlash, telling Glamour he didn't understand the show's format or know the typical contestant age because he 'hadn't dated in 26, 27 years.' He finalized his divorce in December. His season of The Golden Bachelor premieres on Sept. 24. Porizkova sees this debate as bigger than The Golden Bachelor. 'Women are so used to this dynamic that a 60-year-old [man] dating a 40- or 30-year-old [woman] is fine,' she tells Yahoo. 'If he's powerful and has money, then he can date any age he wants.' But it raises a deeper question: Do men and women have different expectations of what love and companionship should look like in their golden years? Starting over The older man-younger woman relationship pairing has been spoon-fed for so long that it's normalized — and even romanticized. It's the age-old story: the man is strong and successful, the woman is young and beautiful. And audiences have long lapped it up. 'It was not that long ago that the male actors were 30 years older [than their leading ladies] and nobody blinked,' Porizkova says. 'Like [Entrapment co-stars] Catherine Zeta-Jones and Sean Connery — he was old enough to be her grandfather practically, and that was fine.' She argues that a more realistic portrayal of mature love is missing in shows and movies, particularly in rom-coms and romantic dramas. As someone who found love again in her late 50s, she wants to see more stories reflecting her life stage. 'This is why I [thought] that The Golden Bachelor — the original idea — was such a great one,' she says. 'There are a lot of people starting over … in midlife. 'Gray divorce' has a name, right? Let us see middle-aged people restarting. We actually restart from a much better place. Generally, we're smarter. We know what we want and what we don't want. It makes it harder to pick because a lot of [men] on offering are like the Golden Bachelor.' The reality of dating after 60 According to Pew Research Center data on single Americans in 2020, men significantly outnumber women in the dating market: 61% of single men said they were currently looking to date or be in a relationship compared with just 38% of single women. Those differences are starker after 40: 71% of older women say they weren't looking to date right now, compared with 42% of men in the same age cohort. A 2025 Pew Research study showed that women were more likely to be unpartnered later in life: 51% of women over 65 were single compared to 29% of men over 65. That helps explain why someone like Owens is looking to settle down again. Plus, it underscores the gender imbalance in the dating pool for that demographic. Barbara Greenberg, a clinical psychologist, tells Yahoo that older men in age-gap relationships often feel a renewed sense of vitality. Dating a younger partner — particularly after long marriages with women closer in age — can feel like a fresh start, bringing with it the excitement of new possibilities, including the possibility of more children. 'It's the ability to feel young again,' she says. 'And frankly, who doesn't want to feel younger?' Owens's ex-wife is reportedly 19 years younger, suggesting he may already be accustomed to dating outside of his age bracket. Still, the way society views an older man dating a younger woman — compared to the reverse — remains rooted in a double standard. 'When we see an older man and a younger woman, we think of a man who probably has a lot of financial stability and a woman who … has a lot of energy, youth and vibrancy,' says Greenberg. 'It's: 'Oh, they [must] have fun together.'' The perception shifts when it's an older woman and a younger man. ''What is psychologically wrong with her?'' she says of the bias. 'We think about it as a mother-son kind of thing [or that] the guy is using her for her money, even if she's beautiful and brilliant.' We've seen this play out in pop culture, including earlier this year when Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy star Renée Zellweger defended the title character's relationship with a younger man. But whether it's Nicole Kidman in 2024's Babygirl, Sally Field in 2015's Hello, My Name Is Doris, Cate Blanchett in 2006's Notes on a Scandal or Anne Bancroft in 1967's The Graduate, the older women are often portrayed as seductive, sad or delusional. Real-life couple Sam and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who have a 23-year age gap, have also drawn public skepticism, even now 13 years into their marriage. Meanwhile, more couples are divorcing after 50 than before, with the rate for that age range doubling between 1990 and 2010. USA Today recently explored the idea of 'menodivorce' — or women leaving relationships around the time of menopause or perimenopause. With more than half of women over 65 single, it suggests there's far less urgency to repartner compared to men. In general, women are also happier being single than men, research has shown. 'Women seem more likely to be comfortable with their independence,' Greenberg says of gray dating. 'Maybe at this point, they want to focus on taking care of themselves, their friendships, their careers, whatever they have going on.' A second chance at an equal partnership For her part, Porizkova never thought she'd say 'I do' again after splitting from husband Ric Ocasek of the Cars in 2018. In 2023, she started dating Greenstein, 61, and the TV writer proposed in July. 'Before I met Jeff, I was steadfast about … never getting married again,' she says. 'What changed my mind was understanding that I had never truly been in a proper relationship before. I finally found my equal. And a big part of that is because I figured out who I was.' Heading into this marriage in her 60s, Porizkova brings a perspective she didn't have the first time. 'When you get married when you're very young, you're very hopeful and you're very naive about what marriage is,' says Porizkova, who met Ocasek — 21 years her senior — at 19 and married him when she was 24. 'I was filled with dreams: 'This is forever. Yes, we should absolutely merge our money … because we will never get divorced, even though he was divorced twice before me.'' Looking back, Porizkova says, 'I was a child when we met, so I didn't know any better. I was looking for a parental figure, and that … worked out well for me for a while.' That early relationship gives her insight into the appeal of age-gap dynamics and potential limitations. It's also taken her to where she is today. 'I'm somebody who grew up much too fast in certain ways and not at all in others, so it's taken me 60 years to reach a balance,' she says. 'It's amazing when you reach that balance, and then you can find a person that suits that balance.' Time to tell the full story Of course, it doesn't mean all age-gap relationships are destined to fail. Fifteen years ago, Greenberg says she 'was very skeptical' of May-December couplings, but her perspective has shifted after seeing some of these relationships succeed and bring genuine happiness to both partners. What she sees as crucial, however, is that couples have candid conversations early on about their future goals, values and the separate aging paths they're on. She wishes those kinds of honest moments showed up on TV and in films. 'They leave out that the older person is going to develop health issues, possible [changes in] sexuality or just slow down while the younger person still wants to go on trips and do things,' Greenberg says. 'Aging issues — that's what gets overlooked,' says Greenberg. 'What's going to happen in two, three decades?' Porizkova says she's disappointed that The Golden Bachelor — which began with the promise of casting contestants over 65 — has veered into what she views as 'sensationalism' with viewers tuning in to see him get a choice of beautiful women much younger than him. Meanwhile, the final list of contestants has yet to be announced, so it's unclear if producers even followed his criteria. She adds with a wink, 'I [hope] producers have thrown in lots of women with hip replacements [and] he won't find out until he's hooked.' Solve the daily Crossword
