Jason Momoa Matched His Scrunchie to Girlfriend Adria Arjona's Lavender Dress
Arjona looked incredible in a silky lavender dress with frilly sleeves and a plunging neckline adorned with ribbon-like details that traveled all the way down to the hem. The Hit Man star accompanied the dress with pointy powder-purple heels and a gold necklace featuring a diamond bird pendant sitting atop a large amethyst.
Her hair was down in boho beach waves, and she wore minimal makeup, including a barely-there berry lip.
Momoa matched her freak in a cool, deep-violet velvet suit. Always one to make fearless fashion choices, the Aquaman star styled his vibrant suit with a crisp white dress shirt, burgundy leather boots, brown shades, and a little lavender scrunchie around his braid to go with his girlfriend's dress.
The actors held hands, cuddled, and laughed on the red carpet at at Cineworld Leicester Square. At one point, Momoa stopped to sweetly fix Arjona'a hair, and of course she swooned at him because of it.
Momoa and Arjona first met while filming Sweet Girl in 2021, but their relationship didn't turn romantic until 2024, when they went public with their romance. Momoa was previously married for nearly two decades to Lisa Bonet, with whom he shares children Lola and Nakoa-Wolf. They announced their split in early 2022.

'Wednesday' bestie Emma Myers talks wolfing out, 'Minecraft' memes
Now that Emma Myers is on one of the hottest shows around, the 'Wednesday' star gets a kick out of someone bringing up her first TV role. On a 2010 episode of the Florida-based police procedural 'The Glades,' Myers played the daughter of a NASA mission specialist caught up in a murder investigation. The thing is, there was no acting involved – instead, she showed up, smiling, in multiple family photos. 'They put out like a cattle call for kids,' says the Orlando native, 23. 'They just took a photo of me so that they could put it in a picture frame and this character could look longingly.' Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox Her career has certainly gotten more active. Myers broke out as Enid, the werewolf roommate/bestie of Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), in Netflix's 'Wednesday' Season 1 three years ago. After that, she starred as English teen sleuth Pip in the 2024 Netflix mystery series 'A Good Girl's Guide to Murder,' played sword-wielding heroine Natalie in this year's fantasy blockbuster hit 'A Minecraft Movie' and scored a role in 2027's animated 'Angry Birds 3.' Myers and her infrequently furry alter ego are back in 'Wednesday' Season 2 (first four episodes streaming now, last four premiere Sept. 3), where danger is afoot yet again at Nevermore Academy. In addition to rocking a colorful new hairdo, Enid is embroiled in a love triangle with new wolfman Bruno (Noah B. Taylor) and former beau Ajax (Georgie Farmer), plus gets in a 'snooty little rivalry' with creepy young Agnes (Evie Templeton), who's trying to replace Enid as Wednesday's BFF. 'She's getting it from all sides, honestly,' Myers says. The actress discusses both of her Netflix shows, the viral popularity of 'Minecraft' and the downside of wolfing out. Edited and condensed for clarity. Q: How do you feel both you and Enid have grown since the first "Wednesday" season? Emma Myers: I mirror Enid a bit in her journey. I've definitely gained confidence in myself in the past three years. No love triangles for me (in real life), thank goodness (laughs). She's a bit more headstrong and she goes out and gets what she wants. I love to stay true to the original old Enid, but also just bringing in that subtle strength behind her as well. She and Wednesday have this unspoken understanding. They have a sense of comfort in one another that Wednesday probably wouldn't admit to but Enid certainly would. Do you get a say in Enid's wardrobe or what gets put in her half of their dorm room? Definitely. If I'm in a fitting, I'll always pick out my favorite ones or just say that I don't like something and they'll nix it. But in Season 2, I'm the one who decided that haircut. I said, 'If we're going to make her a bit more edgy and stuff, this is a fun haircut to give her.' It's great to have that sort of say and have people trust you about it. But Enid doesn't transform as much as one would expect from a werewolf. Do you wish you wolfed out on the show more? If you overdo the wolfing-out, the significance of it lessens a lot. The amount that she wolfs out is actually fine. Also, just from an actor's perspective, it's humiliating to do the beginning of wolfing out, so I'm glad that I only had to do it as many times as I've had to. Your accent is spot-on as Pip in "Good Girl's Guide." Does anybody ever think you're actually a Brit? I get it sometimes, but then also sometimes I get people telling me that it was too exaggerated. I really don't know what to think, to be honest with you. Season 1, I didn't get time to practice it. I was thrown into the role two weeks before we started shooting. This next season that we just finished, I had a lot more time to prep, so I hope it pleases the audience this time. Congrats on that Favorite Butt-Kicker Kids' Choice Award for 'Minecraft.' Where do you keep your trophy? I haven't been home since I won. I don't even know if they've sent me one. If I don't have one, I would like one because I feel like I deserve one! That's so cool to have won that. I definitely want my award on my shelf or something, so maybe I need to talk to some people. 'Minecraft' really was quite the phenomenon. Have you had a middle-school kid yell 'Chicken jockey!' at you yet? I have, actually. I have had a 'Chicken jockey!' yelled at me in the middle of some scenes. We had to shoo them away to finish. I get 'Chicken jockey!' yelled at me quite often, or people (on Instagram) will just comment 'Chicken jockey!' I love that that's taken off so much. It's very amusing.

Warner Bros. Discovery film studios lift second-quarter results
Warner Bros. Discovery's earnings got a boost from its film studios after a handful of box office hits during the second quarter. The period from April though June saw the releases of "A Minecraft Movie," "Sinners," "Final Destination: Bloodlines," and "F1," which together generated $2 billion in the global box office to date, the company said Thursday. WBD reported total revenue for the studios segment — which also includes distributing TV content — increased 55% during the quarter to $3.8 billion, with theatrical revenue up 38%, excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange, due to the higher box office revenue. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, for the studios segment was $863 million during the period, up from $210 million during the same period a year prior. In a letter to shareholders, WBD said it expects the momentum to continue, with the studios segment projected to generate at least $2.4 billion of adjusted EBITDA for the full year. The company said it was "a substantial step toward" its goal of eventually notching more than $3 billion in adjusted EBITDA for the segment. While "Superman" was released shortly after the close of the second quarter, the film's success is likely to help lift the third quarter for Warner Bros. Discovery. "Superman" generated $220 million globally during its opening weekend, which the company said was the "strongest ever debut for a solo Superman film." In late July, "Superman" and Apple's "F1," which Warner Bros. distributed, had more than $500 million in ticket sales, CNBC reported. Executives have been in the process of rebuilding Warner Bros. Motion Pictures for several quarters now. In particular, CEO David Zaslav has called out the need to revive the studios since the merger of Warner Bros. and Discovery in 2022. The segment had been plagued by the closure of theaters at the height of stay-at-home orders during the pandemic, followed by a Hollywood shutdown during the actors' and workers' labor strikes in 2023. To help the unit, the company hired James Gunn and Peter Safran in 2022 as the co-heads of its DC Comics film and TV unit, in a move to steady the ship of the superhero film division. That same year, Warner Bros. appointed Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy as co-heads of Warner Bros. Motion Pictures, each of which had previously led MGM Studios. "We've had an extraordinary run. You know we were in last place," said Zaslav on Thursday, noting the studios' hires shortly after the merger. "And together we went from last to first. You know, Disney is a little bit ahead right now … But we're really making the turn." Since the merger, Zaslav has said WBD would lean on its library of franchises, including "Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter." On Thursday, Zaslav said the company had the goal of two or three so-called tentpole releases a year, "which provide real stability." Zaslav also said the company has already "got a great script" for the upcoming "Lord of the Rings" installment from director Peter Jackson. He also noted the next iteration of the "Superman," or the "Super family," franchise is in the works for DC Studios. Still, the division has been faced with staff cuts, much like the rest of WBD since the 2022 merger. Last month Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group told employees it would cut 10% of its workforce, Deadline reported. The company is also in the midst of splitting itself apart and essentially undoing the merger of just three years ago. Next year, the present day company will be divided into two units — Warner Bros., comprised of the studios and streaming platform HBO Max; and Discovery Global, made up of the TV networks, Discovery+ and sports business. Overall, WBD's total revenue increased 1% during the second quarter to $9.81 billion. Adjusted EBITDA rose 9% to $1.95 billion

Mona Kattan Relies On Kinship To Keep KayAli Scentsational
Mona Kattan is no stranger to popularity. The fragrance mogul easily garners hundreds of thousands of views on TikTok, and her comment section on Instagram is constantly littered with heart-eye emojis and high praise of one of her best-selling products: KayAli perfumes. Their staple lines are often defined by the uniquely shaped bottles and sweet and feminine scents, ranging from original scents Elixir | 11 and Vanilla | 28 to the most recently released destination collection, designed to transport your senses to an island getaway. With over one million Instagram followers and TikTok videos that average 20,000 plays, many would believe that consumers' love for sweet scents and the idea of affordable yet luxurious perfume would be the main driving factor. However, it wasn't the remnants of pistachio ice cream, vanilla rock candy, or social media clout that Kattan used to leverage the ultimate buying power—it was community. KayAli Hits the Market 'I've never viewed them as an 'audience' but rather as our friends and community,' Kattan explains of KayAli consumers. 'Fragrance is so personal, which is why we don't believe in rigid profiling. People aren't defined by categories; they're defined by how they want to feel. That mindset changes everything. We listen, we engage, and we grow together. It's not about marketing to a target; it's about building real connections.' The brand emerged in U.S. markets in late 2018 and saw almost immediate success. Shortly thereafter, it graced the shelves of Sephora, expanding from its direct-to-consumer model. The brand quickly grew in popularity, generating $1.5 million in earned media value by the end of that year. Quickly rising to fame through Tiktok and social media influence, KayAli became a household name in the fragrance community. Their gourmand and confectionary-inspired scents were a stark change from the typical floral, musk and sultry scents, while playful and colorful packaging appealed to various audiences. KayAli wasn't just another perfume brand; it was a breath of fresh air. In 2023, the global perfume market was valued at $48.05 billion, according to Perfumer & Flavorist. The brand brought Kattan wealth, as her estimated net worth is estimated to be between $100 million and $200 million, however, for consumers, purchases of the perfume didn't feel like a mundane transaction, throwing money at a large corporation, it felt like supporting a friend. 'This generation doesn't just want to smell good, but they want it personal, unique and fun,' says fragrance influencer Paul Fino. 'Mona feels like a friend to us. She speaks with their audience, customers, and fans firsthand. Mona sees the comments, the videos, the reviews. She listens to her customers in ways that exceed their expectations.' Known for their creative social media videos and teasers when releasing a new scent, Kattan relies on experience and passion to make sure that people don't view her as just another smell. 'One of the biggest challenges has been learning how to translate deep emotions and rich narratives into something people can connect with—without them being able to actually smell it through a screen,' she explains. 'You have to dig into your own memories, your own heart, and find a way to make others feel something real. That's not easy, but it's also what makes this category so magical and meaningful to me.' Gourmand Enters the Chat One of the first four fragrances released, Vanilla | 28 grasped consumers by their noses and introduced a part of the fragrance industry that many brands overlooked: gourmandise. Fragrance reviewer and content creator Kimberly Sillage was always a fan of the Kattan sisters. The Huda Beauty #FauxFilter Luminous Matte foundation became a staple in her cosmetic collection, and when she learned that one of the sisters was releasing a fragrance line, her loyalty spilled over, and she knew she had to purchase. Vanilla | 28 was her first product, and it would trigger an infinite love for the brand. 'Vanilla 28 will always be special to me because it was my first ever KayAli,' Sillage reminisced. 'I purchased it in 2018, exactly after the launch. I was stunned. I've always been a gourmand lover when it comes to perfume, and when I saw the notes, I just knew I had to try it.' Capturing the sweet essence of sugary vanilla or salty pistachio is not easy. In fact, of the 17,000 perfumes on the market, gourmand fragrances saw the biggest increase in 2025. Kattan took on the challenge headfirst, capitalizing on innovation and cornering a trend before it became popular. With each number on the bottle representing the amount of formulations it took to achieve the final product, Kattan is no stranger to failure and the classic dust yourself and try again. 'Saturation just means there's demand, and it challenges you to be more innovative, more authentic, and more differentiated,' the entrepreneur explains. 'Honestly, I create what I want, what I feel is missing. I'm insanely obsessed with fragrance, and I'm constantly experimenting. I've built a personal library of over 5,000 perfumes and counting, and every KayAli launch starts with something I genuinely crave for myself.' The gourmand industry continues to boom, with market research firms reporting that the gourmand fragrance market is predicted to reach $48.7 billion by 2033. Other brands have entered the race, as dupe culture enters a struggling economy; however, Kattan remains optimistic and assured in her business and brand. 'I don't chase trends - I stay deeply connected to our community, keep my eyes on cultural shifts, and stay endlessly curious,' she declares. 'While trends can be fun, true connection through scent is timeless. My goal is always to create something meaningful, not just momentary.' Community Reigns Supreme For KayAli, success smells a lot sweeter when the community approves of it. Sillage believes that Kattan's approach is par for the course and that 'if you look at their vision and their goal, it fits perfectly. You either love it or hate it.' As for Kattan, she continues to set KayAli apart by sticking to her core values, and keeping an ear in her community. 'Our close-knit community is what truly sets us apart,' the entrepreneur concludes. 'Their feedback, layering combinations, and ongoing conversations all build a sense of trust that means everything to us. We don't just launch products; we create them alongside our audience.'
