Gavin Casalegno Says Jeremiah Has "Happy" Ending on 'The Summer I Turned Pretty'
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Gavin said "It was fun, especially on my side of things, seeing how much the character grew throughout the season and how you could really see the maturity in the decisions towards the end of the series. So the final scenes were kind of a nice, happy button for Jeremiah—at least, I hope that people watching feel that way."
On the other hand, Christopher Briney said wrapping up Conrad was "bittersweet." As he put it, "But I just treated every season like, 'Hopefully we get another one. It's nice to finish our trilogy and to capstone that story that we signed up to hopefully get to the end of. It was good."
Meanwhile, author and co-showrunner Jenny Han said of the show's ending "Personally, it feels very satisfying." So you know what? Taking it back, absolutely going to read into literally everything while I wait for the first two episodes of Season 3 to drop tomorrow.

'The Summer I Turned Pretty' S3: How to Shop Belly's Outfits
After two long years, The Summer I Turned Pretty is finally back on our screens, transporting us to Cousins Beach one last time. There's plenty to unpack following this week's season premiere (new episodes will drop weekly until the series finale on September 17), but right now, we're avoiding spoilers and focused on the clothes. Whether you're #TeamJeremiah or #TeamConrad, we can all agree that when it comes to Belly's effortless and casual style, it's impossible not to be obsessed. With the show delivering memorable fashion moments (like Season 1's debutante ball looks or Belly's retro rollerskating 'fit from Season 2), we can't wait to see both the drama and the outfit inspo Season 3 has in store. Luckily, Belly's style is easy to shop for and recreate IRL. (There are exact matches on the show's Amazon storefront, and brands like American Eagle are dropping merch). To celebrate the return of the summer's most dramatic love triangle, we curated some of our favorite looks from Season 3 so far, like coastal-inspired outfits fit for a New England summer to pieces that are perfect for campus strolls, just in time for back to school season. For a quintessential collegiate look, you can't go wrong with Belly's effortlessly styled oversized Beta Sigma Nu Crest hoodie, which she probably swiped from Jeremiah—but you can find on Amazon. The piece that absolutely caught our eye, though? Her amazing cherry red cat eye sunnies. Finish off the look with your fave biker shorts and your go-to sneaks. While The Summer I Turned Pretty has always been packed with summer fashion inspo, this season's flashbacks and campus setting give us a glimpse into Belly's school year style. Case in point: This classic look, complete with a simple black mini, oversized denim, loafers, and the pièce de résistance, a darling pair of ruffled socks. Honestly, you probably have most of the pieces to re-create this look hiding in your closet, but if not, we've found 'em for you below. Leave it to Belly to make heartbreak look so good. After receiving devastating news (no spoilers here, I promise!), she styles sweatpants made for bed-rotting with a sleek and satin-y varsity jacket—and somehow, it kind If you're not into wearing your sweats out in the wild, a bomber looks just as good when paired with denim or a mini. And if you're curious about Belly's classic leather backpack, it's part of Coach's collab with The Summer I Turned Pretty, but currently out of stock. The first two episodes of the season were light on the expected coastal fashion, but Belly made up for it with a blue and white dress fit for a New England summer. Granted, she wore it to a frat party, but we'll take it. Belly sports a ton of Reformation dresses throughout the show, and the closest match I've found is this nearly-sold out option, but trust: There are still plenty of grandmillennial-inspired dresses out there you can snag and wear while summer lasts. Don't forget a pair of strappy espadrilles to pair it with! As both a #TeamConrad girlie and a seasonal pajama connoisseur, I obviously needed all of the details about the red set Belly was wearing when she and Conrad unexpectedly spend a cozy Christmas together in Cousins. Sadly, my fashion detective findings revealed that Belly's Dôen set is no longer available—but don't fret! I scoped out a ton of options that embody Belly's cottagecore vibe, including a tank-and-shorts set in case you can't wait until summer ends to steal her look.

All actors need to show courage, says Pamela Anderson
Pamela Anderson thinks all actors need to show "courage". The 58-year-old actress actually feels she performs at her best whenever she's "terrified", like when she sang in The Naked Gun. The Hollywood star told Entertainment Weekly: "You have to have courage. You have to have courage to be an actor at all. But that's my happy place is when I'm terrified. "I actually really enjoy singing. I love being on stage … The feeling is so rewarding because I feel like we repress so much of ourselves, and especially as an artist, and I love to write and journal and write poetry, but performing and working on a movie is another way to express yourself because everything is loaded." Pamela actually leaned on her own life experiences for her Naked Gun performance. She said: "All the words to that song, I'm thinking of personal experiences in my life, and so I'm able to get it out even in a crazy scene like that. So it's not just spitting out the words, it's performing some of your innermost thoughts." Meanwhile, Pamela recently revealed that she doesn't enjoy her "sex symbol" status. The actress cemented her status as a sex symbol by playing 'C.J.' Parker in Baywatch in the 90s, but Pamela didn't actually enjoy the attention that came her way at the time. During an appearance on the How To Fail With Elizabeth Day podcast, Pamela explained: "I don't like being a sex symbol. "I mean, I think it's not very sexy. I think we all aspire to be sexy in our relationships, but sexy for the world is, I don't know. "It brought a lot of attention I didn't like, but I hate to say that because I'm not complaining, but I do feel that is a slippery slope where you are presenting yourself to the world like this and you get this attention back that." Pamela has adopted a makeup-free look in recent years, and the actress is now embracing being "more natural". She said: "It can be even scary at times, me not wearing makeup and me being at this age, coming into this part of my career, I felt it was important for me in my personal life, to be more natural."

Is Cousins Beach from 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' a Real Place?
The third and final season of The Summer I Turned Pretty officially began streaming on July 16. The Prime Video series, based on the books by Jenny Han (To All the Boys I've Loved Before), has quickly become a fan favorite. The series follows Isabel 'Belly' Conklin (Lola Tung) as she's caught between two crushes: her childhood friend Conrad (Christopher Briney) and his younger brother Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno). There's also growth and drama in their family dynamics, but the heart of the series is the love story that takes place on Cousins Beach, where Belly's family visits every year. Here's where they made that atmosphere come to life. The two families vacation every year at Cousins Beach, but sadly, it turns out that the beach does not actually exist. Han told Prime Video that she 'had a lot of beaches in [her] head' as she was forming Belly's story. 'I think that's part of the reason why people can read the book and feel like [Cousins Beach] is their beach,' she said. In another interview with Today, she said that Cousins Beach was inspired by Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, the Hamptons, and Nags Head. Nags Head is in North Carolina, and that's where the show was eventually filmed—more specifically, the town of Wilmington. Other shows filmed in Wilmington, NC include Netflix's The Waterfront and the classic dramas One Tree Hill and Dawson's Creek. The Fisher family's house is located in a Wilmington gated community called Porters Neck Plantation. That's where many of the house's exterior shots were filmed. '[The house] had to have that cedar shake on it because [Han] wanted that Cape Cod Northeast look,' the location manager, Lindsay Fort, told People. As for the interior of the house, those scenes took place on sound stages in Wilmington, but the attention to detail is all the same. 'Our character Susannah [Conrad and Jeremiah's mom] loves to garden, and there are always fresh flowers throughout the house,' the production designer for season 1, Teresa Mastropierro, told House Beautiful. 'Our greens department literally transformed the landscape around the house. I think we bought every last hydrangea plant in the state.' In addition to Wilmington, scenes were filmed in other North Carolina locations like Southport, Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, Old River Farms, Porters Neck Country Club, Fort Fisher, and Wrightsville Beach, per People. The latter is where Belly and Jeremiah took the path from the house to the beach in season 1. 'That's the one with the seashells hanging in it,' Fort, told People about Wrightsville Beach. 'It has that really pretty romantic vibe that they run down that path.' College scenes were filmed at Han's alma mater, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. 'Filming at my old dorm, Old East, was definitely emotional,' Han told UNC. 'I was in the first class of women who were allowed to live there. I would lay out in the grass and listen to music and look up at the stars. It felt very romantic and nostalgic to come back and be able to shoot my show here.'
