Kylie Jenner Jokes Sister Kendall's Cooking Skills 'Run in the Family' as Son Aire Mimics Aunt's Cucumber Cutting Abilities
On Wednesday, July 23, Kylie Jenner shared a photo on her Instagram Stories of her son Aire, 3, cutting a cucumber in her kitchen. The toddler could be seen holding the end of the green vegetable with his left hand and using his right hand to slice with a plastic, kid-friendly block.
The little one concentrated on his cooking while his mom snapped his photo. Kylie wrote, "Runs in the family ? @kendalljenner," referring to the model's viral clip from a few years ago.

The cucumber incident was captured in a season 2 episode of The Kardashians when Kendall was in her mother Kris Jenner's kitchen attempting to slice a cucumber to make herself a snack, after denying her mother's offer to have her chef help.
"I'm making it myself," she responded. "Just gotta chop up some cucumber, it's pretty easy."
"You go girl," her mom said. Kendall then proceeded to cut the cucumber, though she didn't seem particularly comfortable doing so. At one point, she had her arms crossed over one another while she held the knife in one hand and the end of the cucumber with the other.
In June 2023, Kendall appeared on the cover of WSJ. Magazine's Summer Digital issue and opened up to the outlet about the viral moment, after which fans called her out for uncomfortably cutting the vegetable.
'Let me just say I successfully cut 'The Cucumber,' ' she told WSJ. 'So if anyone says I cannot cut cucumber, I physically cut the cucumber, and I did it tastefully. I didn't hurt anybody. So I can cut cucumbers.'
The reality star went on to share that she spends quite a bit of time in the kitchen, cooking family-favorite dishes — like rice pilaf with herbed chicken and vegetables — for friends.
Then in November 2024, Kylie made fun of Kendall's cucumber-cutting moment while promoting her brand Khy's holiday collection.
'KHY HOLIDAY just dropped on khy.com 🤭,' Kylie captioned a TikTok video on Nov. 20. The clip showed the mogul dressed in a black sequin two-piece set from her line as she recreated Kendall's iconic moment cutting the cucumber.
'Do you want the chef to make you a snack?' Kris said to Kendall in the audio. Kylie, with her cucumber and cutting board, reenacted her sibling's part in her and Kris' conversation.
'I'm making it myself,' the entrepreneur mouthed.
'Taught me everything I know,' Kendall wrote in her sister's comment section.

My favorite Google Pixel features that don't get enough love
Google Pixel phones are packed with intelligent and helpful features. While Google ensures many of these are front and center by promoting them when you first set up the phone or by periodically reminding you about them when you perform certain tasks, a surprising number of equally brilliant features fly under the radar. These hidden gems can significantly improve your daily experience with your phone. It's a shame that a ton of users simply don't know about them. With that in mind, this is a list of some of my favorite Pixel-exclusive features that, for whatever reason, don't seem to get the attention they deserve. You might be a power user who knows about all of these, but it's likely there will be at least a few readers who will walk away learning something new about the small computer in their pocket. Now Playing has a semi-hidden history Ryan Haines / Android Authority Most Pixel owners are familiar with Now Playing, considering it is one of the features Pixel UI asks you about when you first set up a Pixel. Now Playing identifies songs playing in your environment without you needing to do a thing to trigger it — the information appears on your lock screen automatically. Think of it as an always-on Shazam. What Google doesn't make immediately obvious, however, is that your phone keeps a running list of every song it ever identifies. Now Playing lets you see the music playing around you, but there's a running list of all the songs your phone has ever logged, too. This history can be incredibly handy, but accessing it is a bit convoluted. You can tap the music note on your lock screen when a song is actively playing, but that's not much help when you're trying to recall a track from last night's party while sitting on your couch slightly hungover. To find your full song history, you need to navigate to Settings > Display & touch > Lock screen > Now Playing, and then tap on Now Playing History. Thankfully, you only need to do this once. From the history screen, tap the three-dot menu icon in the top right and select Add to Home Screen. This creates a shortcut icon on your home screen, giving you instant access to your musical memories whenever you want. Quick Tap: A shortcut on the back of your phone C. Scott Brown / Android Authority While Now Playing is an opt-in feature made apparent the first day you use your Pixel, Quick Tap is one you need to discover for yourself. This feature triggers a specific action instantly whenever you double-tap the back of your phone. To enable it, go to Settings > System > Gestures > Quick Tap to start actions. Here, you can assign the double-tap gesture to a variety of tasks. You can use it to take a screenshot, access Gemini, play or pause media, or even open a specific app. I personally have it set to toggle the flashlight, as it's incredibly convenient and works even when the phone is locked. I prefer to use Quick Tap to launch the flashlight, but there are a bunch of other things you can have it do. Be aware that some actions, like launching an app, will require you to unlock your phone first, which can defeat the 'quick' aspect of the feature. Also, if you find yourself accidentally triggering the gesture fairly often, you can enable the Require stronger taps option on the Quick Tap settings page, which should help reduce that issue. Automate your settings with Rules C. Scott Brown / Android Authority If you want your phone to change settings automatically based on your context, Pixels have a built-in system called Rules. While it isn't as feature-rich as some competitor offerings, like Samsung's Routines, it's still quite useful once configured. On your Pixel, you can find it under Settings > System > Rules. You'll need to enable background services for it to work, so be sure to hit the Next button the first time you visit this page. Pixel's Rules allow you to automatically switch audio states depending on where you are. Once you've given it all the necessary permissions, you can create rules that trigger changes to your phone's audio state based on your geographical location or a specific Wi-Fi network. For instance, you can set your phone to automatically switch to Do Not Disturb when you're at the movie theater and then revert to your normal ringer profile when you connect to your home Wi-Fi. It's a simple but effective way to automate your daily routines. Again, I really wish Google made this more powerful like Samsung has with Routines, but it's a gem of a feature taken for what it is. Get better selfies with gestures and illumination Ryan Haines / Android Authority The Pixel camera has a few tricks up its sleeve that go well beyond just taking good photos. Did you know you can switch between the rear and front-facing cameras with a simple shake? When the camera app is open, two quick twists of your wrist will flip to the selfie camera, and two more will flip it back. If this isn't working, check that it's enabled under Settings > System > Gestures > Flip camera for selfie. There's a helpful GIF on that page that can help you master the wrist-flicking gesture. Selfie fiends will love the wrist-flicking gesture and the cheat code for getting better lighting. This gesture combines powerfully with another shortcut that most people already know about: double-tapping the power button to launch the camera. With these two features combined, you can go from your phone being in your pocket to being ready for a selfie in seconds (take phone out of pocket, double tap power button, flick wrists). Once you've framed your shot, you can even use the volume keys to capture the photo, meaning you can go from your phone being in your pocket to snapping a selfie all with using only one hand and without ever needing to touch your display. Neat! I also have a bonus selfie tip. Another underappreciated tool is Selfie Illumination, which you can find under the More light setting in the camera app. The setting for this is fairly apparent (open the camera app, swap to selfie mode, and tap the gear icon on the left), but Google does a poor job explaining what it is. Contrary to what some might think, it isn't just an AI-powered brightening filter. When enabled, your phone's screen will turn bright white for a moment right before capturing a selfie, acting as a makeshift front-facing flash to illuminate your face. This can dramatically improve the lighting of your self-portraits in dim environments. You'll only need to enable this in the camera's selfie mode settings once for it to stay active permanently whenever you take a selfie. However, it will reset when you restart your phone. Face-aware Auto-Rotate C. Scott Brown / Android Authority Everyone has experienced the annoyance of lying in bed and having your phone's screen rotate to landscape when you don't want it to. Pixels have a clever solution to this problem. If you long-press the Auto-Rotate tile in your Quick Settings, you'll find an option to enable face detection. With this active, your phone will use the front-facing camera to see the orientation of your face. If it detects that you're lying down, it will keep the screen in portrait mode even if the phone itself is horizontal. Hate when your head hits a pillow and your phone goes into landscape mode? This is for you. This is a small touch that removes a common frustration. It also prevents you from needing to even have the Auto-Rotate Quick Tile active since it should be smart enough to know when you really want the phone to be in landscape or portrait mode. That makes room for a different tile to be there, which is nice. Select text and images right from your recent apps C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The Recents screen (or Overview screen, Google can't make up its mind what to call this area of Android) is accessible by swiping up from the bottom of your display and holding. On Pixels, this area has a powerful tool. At the bottom of the screen, you'll see a Select button. Tapping this allows you to highlight and copy text from any of the apps currently displayed in the carousel, without needing to open them individually. You can also share the selected text or start a Google search directly from the tiny menu that pops up whenever any text is selected. Stop taking screenshots of apps and then editing the screenshot before sharing. Use the Select tool! This feature is even more useful for images. Let's say you want to share an image on your phone but don't want to share your whole screen. Instead of taking a screenshot, cropping it, and then sharing, you can simply tap on an image directly from the Recents screen. This allows you to share or save just that specific image, or use Google Lens to search with it. It's a much faster and more efficient way of doing things. Don't ignore the Pixel Tips app! Robert Triggs / Android Authority It's easy to dismiss the Pixel Tips app as just another piece of pre-installed software, the digital equivalent of a car's user manual. But you really should open it and explore. The app is a treasure trove of information, detailing many of the cool things your phone can do that you might not be aware of. If I had a nickel for every Pixel user who's never touched the Pixel Tips app, I wouldn't need to work anymore. The Pixel Tips app is also the best place to find out what new features have arrived with the latest quarterly Pixel Drop. Google makes headlines by announcing a batch of new features for Pixels every quarter, but the rollout can be staggered, and some features are exclusive to certain Pixel models. The Tips app cuts through the confusion by showing you exactly which new features are active and available on your specific device. I now make it a point to check the app every few months to see what's new. Those are my favorite underappreciated Pixel features. Did I miss any? What's your favorite?

Why Is a Mid-Tier Restaurant Chain Selling Cowboy Boots?
Think of Chili's Grill & Bar, the mid-tier Tex-Mex restaurant chain founded in 1975, and the name alone might dredge up memories of awkward high school dates, post-soccer-tournament family dinners or your first legal margarita. Now, the company wants you to associate it with something else entirely: being cool. Chili's has teamed up with Tecovas, a western wear label based in Austin, Texas, on a limited-edition line of cowboy boots made using the same burgundy vinyl found on the restaurant's booths. The collaboration is a bid to reach a new, more style-conscious consumer — the kind who might line up for a buzzy new downtown spot but wouldn't necessarily consider Chili's for dinner. George Felix, the brand's chief marketing officer, said the initiative was targeted at 'a younger audience that is really in tune and in touch with the latest in fashion.' By associating itself with a 'high end' brand like Tecovas, he added, Chili's could be seen in a new light. The $345 cowboy boots feature chili pepper contrast stitching, a snip toe and an inlay of a chili pepper — the restaurant's logo. The collection, which goes on sale on Tuesday, also includes a $75 red belt with a brass buckle, inspired by old Chili's uniforms. It's one of several recent examples in which restaurant chains turn to the worlds of fashion and beauty to generate hype. In 2021, the cosmetics brand E.L.F. debuted a line of makeup inspired by Chipotle's assembly line of ingredients (think guacamole green eye shadow and a lip-plumping red gloss inspired by a spicy salsa). In 2023, Panera Bread released the BAGuette, a slim, 12-inch handbag in the chain's signature green. This year, it followed up with the Croissant Clutch, inspired by its croissant toast sandwiches.

'Fantastic Four' stars Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby's handsy behavior raises eyebrows and movie hype: expert
Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby, whose recent flirtatious behavior towards one another has raised eyebrows, are just two of Hollywood's mega-stars who have sparked romance rumors from handsy, red-carpet appearances. From gentle neck rubs to hand-holding, the superhero power couple — who play Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic and Sue Storm/The Invisible Woman in the Marvel film, "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" — have been noticeably touchy with one another while promoting the movie. But Pascal, who recently admitted physical touch helps him cope with anxieties, said there's nothing more to it. "I was always one to reach out when I'm facing something that is challenging or making me anxious," the actor, 50, told Men's Health. Kirby also defended her co-star's actions. Recalling the time in which Pascal caught heat after grabbing her hand during an appearance at Comic Con last year, Kirby told Vanity Fair the gesture was innocent. "What happened is we were both incredibly nervous going out in front of thousands of people who love this comic," Kirby said. "He wanted me to know that we were in this together, and I found it a lovely gesture and was very glad to squeeze his hand back." However, Doug Eldridge, founder of Achilles PR, said stars often use this tactic as a way to create buzz. "Nine times out of 10, this tactic is used as a buzz-builder, whether for the studio that financed the film, or the actors themselves, especially if the latter are up-and-comers, who haven't developed household name recognition yet. But again, there is always the '10th time' which could bring skepticism and, more importantly, scrutiny." "Pascal uses touch as a 'grounding' technique to navigate social situations, which might otherwise trigger his anxiety. Skeptics claim that's a farce, but clinical professionals have acknowledged the validity of this technique," Eldridge continued. "Wherever you fall on this particular case, the real 'winner' is the studio, as the internet has been filled with clicks and commentary surrounding Pascal, all of which creates a groundswell of buzz and potential 'butts in the buckets' for the upcoming release of 'The Fantastic Four' re-make." Steve Honig, founder of The Honig Company, told Fox News Digital that it's common for stars to use their on-screen and off-screen chemistry to their advantage during the promotional period of their upcoming project. "There are many ways co-stars can show chemistry on the red carpet without crossing the line into something that might be construed as inappropriate. The key here is to keep it fun and light, not sexual or anything heavy," Honig said. "At the end of the day, a red carpet is a place of work for actors, so the general rule of thumb is to not do anything a 'civilian' shouldn't do in their workplace." "Oftentimes, the intent of red carpet PDA is to generate some additional buzz for the film," he continued. "This can, however, easily backfire and generate negative press about the questionable behavior. Red carpets are great stomping grounds for celebrities to build their brands, and they should use premieres and other red carpet events to that end." "Celebrities, and their reps, need to remember that, unlike Las Vegas, what happens on the red carpet does not always stay on the red carpet," he added. "What happens at a premiere can, and often does, have a huge and lasting impact not only on the specific project but a celebrity's overall image. This can spill over to other projects, endorsements and either damage or build a celebrity's brand." Last month, Scarlett Johansson spoke out after her red carpet kisses with her "Jurassic World Rebirth" co-star Jonathan Bailey went viral. The 40-year-old actress and 37-year-old actor made headlines after locking lips at their film's premiere in London on June 17. On June 23, the two shared another kiss at "Jurassic World Rebirth's" premiere in New York City, where Johansson's husband, "Saturday Night Live" star Colin Jost, was in attendance. During a recent episode of "Today," host Craig Melvin told Johansson that he wanted to ask her about "this kissing thing that you and Jonathan have been doing all over the world." Melvin went on to note that Bailey was "so attractive," to which Johansson responded, "Yeah, you said it!" "Is that why we keep planting lips on him?" Melvin asked. "He's a lovable guy, what can I say?" Johansson replied. "I don't know. We're just friendly people." When Melvin asked whether she was surprised by the public attention to the pair's kisses, Johansson told him, "Nothing surprises me, you know what I mean?" "Nothing surprises me these days," she continued. "But, yeah, I've got a lot of love to give, what can I say?" In 2023, Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell, who starred together in "Anyone But You," sparked romance rumors as fans caught glimpses of the two filming. At the time, the duo appeared on the "Today" show to promote the film and their friendship was questioned by Hoda Kotb, who asked if there was "a little romance" going on at any point. Throughout the interview, Sweeney and Powell shared little looks, and the "Euphoria" star couldn't stop giggling. While Sweeney laughed in response to the question about their relationship status, Powell answered: "No, but we do love each other. And, honestly, this is one of the most spectacular humans I've ever met. She's really great." In September 2021, Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain were the stars of a viral video from their appearance at the Venice International Film Festival in 2021 to promote their show "Scenes From a Marriage," where fans noted the pair seemed to be a little too comfortable with each other. In the viral video, the two were posing with their arms around each other for photos. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary until Isaac appeared to kiss and sniff Chastain's underarm area. Isaac spoke on SiriusXM's "The Jess Cagle Show" at the time and offered an explanation for the odd sniffing by comparing himself and Chastain to flatworms. "You know, you can cut them into like a hundred pieces and they will grow a whole new worm out of the little piece. So they're basically kind of immortal, and they've been doing work at the cellular level where they're seeing that the cells kind of talk to each other through electricity and kind of decide, 'Okay you're going to make the head.' 'All right, I'm going to make the tail'…they're communicating through some sort of electro kind of magnetic situation," Isaac explained. "Maybe we should use more actual human language to talk instead of sniffing an armpit and doing things like that," Isaac said. "That's kind of what starts to happen and no matter how much we annoy each other, no matter what happens, it's like, when you get us together, it's like, it's just other stuff that's going on that is making us grow two heads." While Eldridge said the public displays of affection during press are "seldom authentic," some are truly genuine. "It is seldom authentic, but a good rule of thumb is to stay away from terms like 'always' and 'never.' Point being, Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn have been together since 1983. Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson have been married for 40 years. Freddie Prinze Jr. and Sarah Michelle Geller have been married for 22 years. Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have been married for 10 years. Improbable and impossible are not the same thing. Just because 'most' of these relationships are manufactured, doesn't mean 'all' of them are." "It's not a question of good or bad [press], but rather inevitable," he said. "The purpose of organizing a global media junket is to drive ticket sales, but the formula is slightly more calculated than the target outcome. Again, the process is simple, not easy: build awareness, create interest/intrigue, generate a call to action."
