Amber Rose reveals what she would tell her younger self
Amber Rose would advise her younger self to "always" trust her instincts. The 41-year-old model became a stripper when she was in her late teens and even though she has carved our a career as a media personality in the years since, insisted that some people "don't want to address" her correctly. She told New Zealand's Maxim magazine: "I'd tell my younger self to always follow my intuition. From ex-stripper to ex-girlfriend. Almost 20 years later and some people still don't want to address me accordingly." Amber first found fame when she appeared in Young Jeezy's 2008 single 'Put On' alongside Kanye West, and later appeared on shows such as 'The Hills' and 'Dancing with the Stars' in the years that followed. And the former 'Master of the Mix' judge revealed thatas she looks forward into the coming years of her showbiz career, she is gearing up to launch a TV show that will offer her take on current affairs. She said: "I'm excited to announce my new show. It'll be my opinion on politics and other current events." Amber publicly supported President Donald Trump throughout his campaign but insisted that she "doesn't give a f***" about what others had to say her at the time, especially because the former 'Apprentice' star emerged victorious. She said: "During the election, I was 'cancelled'. "Now? All the naysayers are quiet. They see he's already changing our country for the better. "Unfortunately, the 'woke' left cancels people for having a different ideology. "Fortunately for me, I don't give a f*** and will always stand 10 toes down until the wheels fall off, regardless of what my beliefs may be. "I used to be on the left and thought I was doing the right thing. That's why it's so important to have open conversations."

Former Olympic Gymnast Mary Lou Retton Addresses DUI Arrest: ‘I Make No Excuses'
Following her arrest last month for driving under the influence, four-time Olympic gold medalist Mary Lou Retton said she takes 'full responsibility' for her actions. 'What happened was completely unacceptable. I make no excuses,' she said in a statement to the Associated Press. 'To my family, friends and my fans: I have let you down, and for that I am deeply sorry. I am determined to learn and grow from this experience, and I am committed to making positive changes in my life. I truly appreciate your concern, encouragement and continued support.' More from Rolling Stone Macklemore's Seattle Home Robbed, Nanny Sprayed With Bear Mace 'How Much Does My Body Cost?': Sean Combs' Ex Faces Fiery Cross-Examination Lil Durk Denied Bail Again in Murder-for-Hire Case On Tuesday, Retton entered a no contest plea to driving under the influence stemming from the May incident and was fined $100, a standard for first-time, non-aggravated offenses, her attorney Edmund J. Rollo told the outlet. Retton was arrested in West Virginia on May 17 after police in Fairmont pulled her over following a report of a person driving a Porsche erratically. According to a criminal complaint, the former athlete smelled of alcohol, was slurring her words, and failed a field sobriety test. Officers also allegedly saw a wine container in the passenger seat. Retton was charged with 'driving under influence of alcohol, controlled substances, or drugs,' and released from custody after paying a $1,500 personal recognizance bond. At 16, Retton became the first American woman to win the all-around gold medal in gymnastics at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. Retton has been retired for more than 30 years, having left after winning the American Cup all-around competition for the third time in 1985. In October 2023, the Dancing with the Stars alum was hospitalized in the ICU with a rare form of pneumonia. Retton previously detailed the severity of her illness in an interview with Today. 'This is serious, and this is life, and I'm so grateful to be here. I am blessed to be here because there was a time when they were about to put me on life support,' Retton shared.

A podcast. Reality show. Countless headlines about her love life. Underneath it all, Kristin Cavallari is a 'very normal' mom.
Kristin Cavallari wants you to know that her new show is '100% real. This is the realest show I've ever done,' she tells me over Zoom. That show — Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour on E! — marks Cavallari's return to reality TV for the first time in five years. Those five years have been busy. Cavallari, 38, got divorced from football star Jay Cutler, 42. in 2022 after announcing their separation in 2020. She's parented the three children — Camden, Jaxon and Saylor — they share. She also launched her podcast, Let's Be Honest with Kristin Cavallari, which has continually rocketed to the top of the podcast charts. Earlier this spring, Cavallari embarked on a four-city podcast tour and invited TV cameras along for the ride. Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour is the result. Listening to Let's Be Honest, it seems like nothing is off-limits for Cavallari, who first rose to fame appearing on the MTV reality shows Laguna Beach and The Hills. There is one topic she shies away from, however. 'The only thing that I've really set a boundary around is my ex-husband,' she says of Cutler. 'That's the only thing. I feel like everything else, I've been an open book — probably too much of one.' Speaking of boundaries, the mom of three used to have a strict one around her kids. Until recently, she never showed their faces on social media and they weren't featured on her previous reality show, Very Cavallari. But that's all changed. Now her kids grace her Instagram posts, have joined her podcast and even appear in Honestly Cavallari. Why the change? 'The whole [point] was to let them make that decision when they were old enough," she explains. "And so they are that age.' (Camden is 12; Jaxon is 11; daughter Saylor is 9.) 'It's been nice for me to be able to share that part of my life with people just because my kids are the biggest part of my life,' she adds. Her kids have been asking her to post them 'for years," Cavallari says; her eldest son even asks her to tag him in content. 'I'm like, I'm not tagging you,' she laughs. 'But they love it.' Though her sons have social media accounts, she says she keeps an eye on who they're following and what they're doing online. Cavallari is no stranger to being headline news, but if it were up to her, those headlines would have less to do with the men she's supposedly dating. 'I can't control what the media writes,' she says. 'But I'm talking about a lot of stuff other than men [on my podcast] and that seems to be the only area that they want to focus on.' Though her relationships have been tabloid fodder for over 20 years, she still gets frustrated by it. 'It does piss me off,' she says. 'I have a lot more going on in my life.' In fact, Cavallari tells me she hasn't even gone on one date this year (though in the first episode of Honestly Cavallari, she and her best friend laugh about her night out with actor Glen Powell). And her most recent relationship, with 25-year-old Mark Estes, generated lots of interest. 'I got a lot of hate and I got a lot of praise,' she says of the age-gap relationship. 'Guys do it all the time. But when I do it, everyone's like, Oh my god. Mark was really sweet and we had a very sweet, innocent relationship, and it honestly just worked really well for me at the time. I don't regret that at all.' Dating just isn't a priority right now; between work and mom life, Cavallari doesn't have the bandwidth. "I'm just maxed out in every capacity,' she says. But she does mention that her kids are with her ex-husband every other weekend. How does she use that time? 'Just being at my house without a to-do list really excites me," she says. "I might take my dogs for a walk. I'll probably go to the grocery store.' She looks at her life as being organized in buckets. 'There's my family bucket and my work bucket and a tiny social bucket." She's got a "great work-life balance right now," she adds. "Uncommon James [her jewelry and beauty brand] and the podcast fit very well into my life while they're at school. I hope to just maintain that. I just want to keep things as they are.' But when she does get back into the dating world, she knows what her main ick is. 'When someone has zero accountability,' she says. 'I'm like, I can't go down this road with you.' In the first episode of Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour, the cameras follow the star as she takes care of her kids, makes them dinner and gets ready for her podcast tour. Of her divorce, she tells the cameras, 'I think deep down I knew' that it was coming. But she's staying positive. 'Divorce can be a really good thing,' she continues, and as a single mom, motherhood is her priority. 'I never really felt like I was No. 1 with my parents, so that was always a big deal for me — to make sure my kids know they're a priority.' People would be surprised to see just how ordinary her everyday life is, she tells me. 'I am very normal. I'm at all of the basketball games. I'm on the field trips,' she says. 'I'm basically an Uber driver for my kids.' Her identity as a mom leans more toward the fun side. 'Maybe I could have a few more rules,' she laughs. 'I mean, there are rules, there are boundaries. But for me, it's like, if you're a good person and you're not hurting anyone and you're treating people kindly, I think that's more important than 'you have to go to bed at 9 p.m. every night.'' Of her three kids, she says, Jaxon, is the one who keeps her 'on her toes.' Cavallari has never been shy about ... well, most things, including talking about how her previous stints on reality TV have been less than authentic. "This was the only show I've done where they didn't jump in every five minutes to tell me what to say," she says of Honestly Cavallari: 'So it was a really enjoyable experience. And I'm happy I did it because I can finally say this show is 100% real.' Though it's the headline tour, she wants to take fans beyond the headlines — the ones about her love life, her sassy teen queen image, etc. If that was all you saw of her, she would understand if you didn't like her. 'I would hate me too, I think,' she says.

Cheryl Burke Responds to Critics Who Say She ‘Looks So Different' amid Weight Loss: ‘You're Allowed to Evolve'
In a post about prioritizing mental health, Cheryl Burke responded to criticism about her looks since her recent weight loss The DWTS alum said people are projecting and she's 'allowed to evolve' She previously told PEOPLE that she's lost about 35 lbs. since focusing on how she feels rather than how she looksCheryl Burke has had enough of the online criticism about her looks. On June 6, the Dancing with the Stars alum, 41, posted on Instagram and discussed protecting her mental health as she continues to deal with social media comments about her new appearance since losing weight. 'The noise that was never yours to carry,' she wrote alongside a selfie. 'Online Criticism: 'You look so different. Did she get work done? You were better before…' Truth: People project. Let them. You're allowed to evolve.' 'There comes a moment when you realize the loudest voice in the room doesn't always speak the truth,' Burke added in the caption. 'The opinions. The projections.

'You were never meant to live your life on someone else's volume setting…✨ Save this for the days it gets loud. #protectyourpeace #boundariesarebeautiful #mentalhealthawareness.' Last month, Burke spoke to PEOPLE and set the record straight about her recent weight loss. She explained that living a healthy lifestyle was always a priority for her, but things changed once she entered her 40s. 'I've noticed not only my skin changing into mature skin, but also just my metabolism has changed quite a lot,' she said. 'I've noticed my feet cramping randomly if I'm not moving often. Obviously, I'm not as active as I was when I was on the show, but it's just been a whole change for me.' As someone who struggled with body image in the past, the professional dancer — who left DWTS in 2022 after 26 seasons — knew she couldn't approach her health the same way she did when she was younger. Back then she was 'obsessive' over the number on the scale. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. 'It would really affect my mood on a daily basis if I didn't feel like I was skinny enough,' she admitted. 'It's just not healthy.' Burke said she decided to shift her focus moving forward, 'starting from within first instead of the aesthetic of what I look like from the outside.' The former dancer found success in intermittent fasting, eating clean foods, going for long walks daily and taking workout classes with the Fitbit app. Although she hasn't kept a scale in her house in several years, Burke noted that as a result of her efforts, she's probably lost between 30 to 35 lbs. in recent months. 'I have so much more energy than I ever have,' she said. Despite feeling better than ever, Burke said she's been hurt by relentless online criticism. Her social media comments have been filled with messages accusing her of taking Ozempic for weight loss, losing too much weight, ditching her brand of promoting body positivity and more. 'I just want people to know that I'm not sick and I have never gone under the knife for anything. I didn't get a brow lift, I didn't get a face transplant. This is my body and this is how I feel best in it today,' she told PEOPLE. Read the original article on People
