Is this Carrie Bradshaw most ridiculous look ever? Sarah Jessica Parker trolled for insane hat on And Just Like That
Sarah Jessica Parker's fashionista character, Carrie Bradshaw, seemed to have missed the mark with one of her looks on the third season of And Just Like That.
During Thursday's premiere episode, titled 'Outlook Good' — which also featured a lesbian sex scene with virgin nun played by Rosie O'Donnell — Carrie was seen strolling through the park wearing an outlandish hat.
The massive bonnet-style accessory was made of a gingham-patterned fabric in shades of light orange and white.
Fans were not impressed with Carrie's eye-catching look, with many trolling her as they compared the hat to one worn by the popular cartoon character Strawberry Shortcake. Some even quipped they wanted to 'call the fashion police.'
'Why is she cosplaying as Strawberry Shortcake?' one asked, while another shared a side-by-side asking, 'Who wore it better?'

'I can get behind the wildest of Carrie's fashion choices but this duvet cover of a hat is truly unhinged.'
'I love the show but someone needs to call the fashion police on Carrie's hat lol!'
'I know nothing about fashion, but what is this hat Carrie is wearing?'
'What's happening here...' someone else wondered.
'Are we all seeing this, is this a joke, what is happening?'
'I'm sorry, but what was that hat? I feel ill.'
'2 things I could've done without on the 1st episode of Season 3... This hat and Rosie O'Donnell.'
'Carrie's Yosemite-Sam-Meets-Aladdin 'hat' is the epitome of everything wrong (and perfect) with #AJLT.'
Elsewhere on the show fans were stunned by a shocking performance from newcomer Rosie, who played a sex-starved nun.
The sequel to the fan beloved Sex and the City series follows friends Carrie Bradshaw (Parker), Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon), and Charlotte York Goldenblatt (Kristin Davis) and their tangled lives in New York City.
The first episode of the new season features Rosie, 63, in her guest role as a virgin nun named Mary, who is Miranda's potential lesbian love interest.
The two hit it off at the bar, and Mary proceeds to flirt with Miranda, telling her, 'You are so pretty' before brazenly letting her know that she has a 'hotel room.'
The morning after their passionate night, Mary reveals a truth that leaves Miranda utterly stunned: she had taken Mary's virginity.
Following the premiere, bewildered fans took to social media questioning the wild plot line, with one asking, 'Who came up with that!?'
'Omfg, miranda finally comes out as a lesbian and her first pickup is rosie o'donnell as a nun, christ, wut,' another one asked.
'Miranda hooking up with Rosie O'Donnell and it hasn't even been 10 minutes… what the hell sure.'

'I was -not- expecting to see Rosie O'Donnell pop up!'

'You are amazing,' Mary tells her. 'I have never experienced anything like that.'

Miranda later tells Carrie that the nun is 'in love' with her, and continues to text her trying to meet up. Miranda says she feels 'mean' for not texting back, but eventually goes to meet Mary in Times Square

She then attempts to start it up again, but he tells her his son is sleeping next to him. Embarrassed, she awkwardly apologizes and hangs up.
Unable to go to sleep after he house alarm goes off again, Carrie gets up and opens her laptop, beginning to write.
'The woman wondered what she had gotten herself into,' Carrie wrote, before the episode came to an end.
The show picks up 11 years after the events of the 2010 film Sex and the City 2, and follows three of the four original main characters.
Following the success of Kim Cattrall 's cameo in the second season, it's been widely reported Samantha will return for at least part of the third season.
Sara Ramirez will not be returning as controversial non-binary comedian Che Diaz (there's some disagreement as to whether this was because of their political posts, because of the end of the character's relationship with Miranda, or because viewers just found them so annoying).
Karen Pittman also won't return as Columbia law professor Nya Wallace because of scheduling conflicts.
Meanwhile The OC's Logan Marshall-Green and the one and only Patti LuPone will all make appearances in the new series.
Since starting in December 2021, the Sex And The City spin-off has seen Carrie, Samantha and Charlotte grapple with sexuality, gender identity, death, grief, divorce, drug use, and pretty much every other hot issue in Western society.
The original Sex and the City ran for six seasons, airing on HBO from 1998 until 2004.
The story continued with two feature films: Sex and the City (2008) and Sex and the City 2 (2010).
The first season of And Just Like That... premiered in 2021.
There will be 12 episodes in And Just Like That… season 3, with the last premiering on August 14.
The season 3 premiere comes after Parker revealed Mr. Big's death on the show was 'really hard' for her to film.
The actress addressed the shocking moment in the show where Carrie's husband Mr. Big (Chris Noth) died of a heart attack after working out on his Pelaton bike.
Mr. Big had been a staple character of Sex And The City and Carrie's main love interest so it was a risk for writers to kill him off.
Speaking on The E! News Sitdown with Bruce Bozzi, Sarah gave her thoughts on the storyline.
She said: 'Big dying was really, really hard to do both professionally and personally. That's not just a thread. It's one of the main arteries that you would struggle to do without.'
'It was really sad to say goodbye to that. It's not like I needed it for my own health or wellbeing. But that was a hugely wonderful story to tell for a lot of years.'
Since Big's death, Carrie has rekindled her romance with old flame Aidan, who she was involved with in seasons three and four of Sex And The City.

Inside Rihanna's rollercoaster relationship with her dad amid his shock death
After a long and complicated history, Rihanna 's father Ronald Fenty has reportedly passed away at age 70. The Umbrella songstress, 37, has long been open about how her father's crack and alcohol addictions cast a dark shadow over her childhood. She has said that her dad's substance abuse issues lead to explosive fights between her parents that sometimes turned physical - and that he once 'slapped her' so hard in the face when she was only seven-years-old that it left a 'handprint' on her cheek. His drug problems also meant Rihanna's mom had to work overtime to provide for her family, forcing Rihanna to step up and take care of her two younger brothers when she was little. Her yearning for a better life and longing for an escape from her 'abusive' dad were likely a driving force in her launching her music career at only 15 years old. But her relationship with her dad didn't get any easier after she found fame, in fact, things only got more messy as their problems often trickled into the media. Over the years, Rihanna and her father have gotten into multiple public feuds: he once got kicked off her tour after he 'embarrassed her' by 'disrespected' crew members; she was left furious when he spoke publicly about her controversial romance with Chris Brown; and he was kicked out of her charity event for boozing soon after he completed a rehab stint she had funded. Things got so bad in 2019 she actually sued Ronald for allegedly trying to cash in on her fame by using their family name to brand his entertainment business. But in recent years it had seemed as though they had finally reconciled as Ronald revealed in 2022 after Rihanna announced her pregnancy that they had been in touch and that he was 'over the moon' over the news. It's certainly been a rollercoaster ride for Rihanna and her father. Amid the news of his shock passing, FEMAIL has recapped their tumultuous relationship from start to finish. Rihanna's childhood was plagued by Ronald's drug addiction, as well as and his violent fights with her mom Rihanna, who grew up in Barbados, has long been open about how her father's addictions to crack and alcohol cast a dark shadow over her childhood. 'Even as a toddler, I learned that my mom and dad would argue when there was foil paper in the ashtray,' she once recalled to the Mirror. It was said that her dad's substance abuse issues lead to explosive fights between her parents that sometimes turned physical. 'I could tell when a conversation was getting too intense, when it was going to get physical,' she told Rolling Stone back in 2011. 'And Fridays would be scary because he would come home drunk. He'd get paid, and half of it would go toward alcohol. He'd walk in the door, and it was all eyes on him.' She also revealed that her dad hit her once when she was seven years old after she asked to stay at the beach 10 more minutes. 'He slapped me so hard. I ran home with his handprint on me,' she recalled. 'I couldn't believe it. 'My mother saw my face, how traumatized I was ... [it] was out of nowhere.' In addition, she told ABC, '[My parents] had a very abusive relationship. My dad was the abuser. [He hit her] on numerous account.' Her mom, Monica, worked tirelessly to try to provide for Rihanna and her two brothers, which sometimes meant the singer had to look after her younger siblings. 'It was going on in the home for a long time,' she previously said of her dad's drug use to Guardian. 'My dad got put out of the house a few times because she was not having that around us. My mom had to be a woman and a man, working her a** off for us.' Her parents ultimately divorced when she was 14 years old, and one year later, she kicked off her music career. She had formed a girl group with two of her classmates and together, they auditioned for record producer Evan Rogers. He was instantly blown away by her talent and invited her to come to the US and record some demos to send to labels. She was signed to Def Jam Recordings soon after, and the rest if history. The father-daughter duo became embroiled in a public feud after she kicked him off her tour in 2009 and he spoke to media about her relationship with Chris Brown Rihanna's complicated relationship with her father was brought into the spotlight in 2009, four years after she released her first single, when she admitted that they hadn't spoke in over a year. 'I've been the one trying to reconcile with him forever,' she said during an appearance on Ryan Seacrest's Kiis FM radio show. 'I haven't heard from my father in over a year. I try though, I reached out to him. I did my part. Now it's on him.' At the time, she said they had a falling out after he 'embarrassed' her on her tour. 'He did something that was a little embarrassing,' she dished. 'He disrespected some people on the bus and I didn't like that, so I kind of just let him go back home. 'I didn't think it was going to be a thing where we weren't talking to each other. I just thought: "You just need some time away right now." 'Every time I tried to call him after that, that was it. I contacted him on numerous occasions - father's day, his birthday - and just nothing.' The pop star also said at the time that she was 'upset' that her dad had given interviews following her assault at the hands of then-boyfriend Chris Brown. 'He kind of did something that was really upsetting. He turned his back on me and went to the media,' she continued. 'He got paid to talk about stuff - all these little interviews he was doing after the whole situation in February. 'I hadn't spoken to him and he was speaking as though we did. It was so disappointing to me.' In 2012, however, Rihanna told Oprah that she had 'repaired' their relationship. 'He taught me everything, and as awful as he was to my mom, at times, it didn't compare to how great he was as a father,' she said on her show. 'And I had to come to terms with that, and I was able to close that gap with him.' Rihanna paid to put Ronald through an expensive Malibu rehab program in 2014, but soon after, he was kicked out of a charity even for boozing In 2014, Rihanna's dad spoke exclusively with about his complicated relationship with the singer. He revealed that Rihanna had put him through an expensive Malibu rehab program after he had gotten into a drunken argument with a bar server over his change and police were called. Caring Rihanna even sent her dad extra clothes and toiletries for his stay and visited him when she got back from touring in Europe. But he confessed at the time that he had fallen off the wagon and had to be escorted out of a charity event she was hosting for boozing. 'I had Johnny Walker Black. I had two doubles and tripped over a chair ... Security came up and said "we're taking you home,"' he said. 'I said, "But I haven't seen my daughter yet" … and they said, "Don't matter man."' He added: 'I'm sad how it ended of course, I should have never taken that first drink or any drink for that matter. I wish I had seen her of course. 'She will probably hear how I was and how I had a few drinks, so I guess she would be angry with me. I think she is, I'm not sure, we haven't spoken just yet. 'I feel bad because I let her down because she spend all that money putting me in rehab, [and] then find me drunk somewhere. It is not good. What can I say but I'm sorry. It's me who f**ed up.' Asked what possessed him to drink at the event, Ronald claimed he was depressed that his two older children from a previous relationship – Rihanna's half brother and sister Jamie and Samantha - weren't invited. Ronald said he feels terrible for breaking his promise to stop drinking to his daughter. But when asked if he was an alcoholic, he insisted: 'Me, n,. drunk and disorderly. I don't see myself as an alcoholic, I don't realize when I get that drunk. 'Call me a drunk or alcoholic in denial, whatever you want to call me but I have realized I could drink or not drink. 'I only start[ed] drinking, once I come back here in December.' Rihanna sued her dad in 2019 for allegedly trying to cash in on her fame by using their family name to brand his entertainment business Things became more tense between them in January 2019 after it was revealed that Rihanna had sued her dad for allegedly trying to cash in on her fame by using their family name to brand his entertainment business, Fenty Entertainment. In legal papers first obtained by The Blast, the singer, alleged Ronald, along with a business partner, Moses Perkins, he has been soliciting business by falsely acting as her agent. Despite having no authority to act on his daughter's behalf, Ronald was said to have booked her on a $15 million tour in Latin America and two concerts, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles and the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas for $400,000. Rihanna asked for damages from her father, and an injunction on his business, set up in 2017. A year later, however, it was reported that Rihanna had helped her father after he contracted coronavirus, sending him a ventilator and checking in on him on a daily basis. She withdrew her lawsuit in September 2021, and it's believed that the two came to a settlement. They seemed to have reconciled before his sock death at age 70, as he revealed the singer sent him photos of her baby bump before debuting it to the world TMZ reported on Saturday that Ronald died in Los Angeles following an illness. Starcomm Network, a radio station in Rihanna's native Barbados, has also reported Ronald's death. As for where their relationship stood before his shocking passing, it seemed they had reconciled in recent years. In 2022, he told Page Six that he was 'over the moon' after Rihanna revealed that she was expecting her first child with A$AP Rocky. 'I'm so happy that I jumped for joy. I'm still so excited,' he gushed. 'Rihanna always said that she wanted children, she loves kids. 'She always takes care of her cousins' kids… she's going to be a good mom.' Ronald, who spoke via phone from his home in Barbados, said he found A$AP Rocky to be 'a very cool guy' after the two got a chance to meet when his daughter brought the rapper home in December 2020. 'I like him,' he added, before revealing that he got the news of Rihanna's pregnancy a day before she went public with her burgeoning tummy. 'I just got the news from her last night, and she sent me some photos,' he said. 'I'm just over the moon. She's beautiful inside and out.'

Blake Shelton hits back at angry critics following backlash over his and Gwen Stefani's AMAs performance after fans claimed they were 'lied to'
Blake Shelton has hit back at angry critics on Wednesday after receiving backlash from his and wife Gwen Stefani 's pre-taped AMAs performance. Fans were left furious after discovering the couple weren't actually on stage at the American Music Awards, instead just pre-recorded their performance before Monday night's event. 'We've been lied to,' wrote a TikTok user who was apparently at the awards show and filmed Gwen and Blake's performances on a screen from a seat in the balcony. Blake has now responded to the backlash, sharing on X: 'Just now seeing these stories about Gwen and I pretaping our performances for the AMA's. 'We came and performed when the show asked us to.. Really nothing else to say.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Blake has now responded to the backlash, sharing on X: 'Just now seeing these stories about Gwen and I pretaping our performances for the AMA's. We came and performed when the show asked us to.. Really nothing else to say' Videos circulating on social media further riled up fans after it wasn't indicated to viewers at home that their performance wasn't live. The stage at the Fontainebleau was pictured in the video, but it was dark, and the actual performance from the 55-year-old No Doubt singer was instead projected on the large screen behind the stage. People appeared to be swaying and dancing on the stage, but they were turned to the screen to watch the video, rather than performing as part of a number. There also appeared to be crew members setting up the stage for the next number while her performance played. 'She's not here!' the TikTok user said at the end of the clip as she turned the camera back to herself in the audience. Gwen was performing a medley of her classic tunes to mark the 20th anniversary fo her 2004 album Love. Angel. Music. Baby., including Hollaback Girl, What You Waiting For? and Rich Girl. Blake's performance was somewhat more confusing, as he was pictured in photos taken on the red carpet in what appeared to be the same outfit that he wore for his performance, suggesting that he had arrived at the AMAs shortly before the show started. But another video from the same TikTok user also showed a pre-recorded performance from the 48-year-old country music star of his single Stay Country Or Die Tryin'. Blake's performance was somewhat more confusing, as he was pictured in photos taken on the red carpet in what appeared to be the same outfit, suggesting that he had arrived at the AMAs shortly before the show started 'The craziest part of the AMAs last night was being told "and here's Blake Shelton Live" only for them to light up the stage like he's there, and never saying to us it was pre recorded. 'THEN, doing the same thing with Gwen Stefani!' the original poster seethed in text laid over the video. 'I felt like I was in a simulation looking around for him!' One commenter joked, 'LOL even the performers didn't show up.' 'Gwen Stefani performing live! ... somewhere else!' another user joked.

Travis Kelce's ex Kayla Nicole sends gracious message to Taylor Swift
Travis Kelce 's ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole has sent a gracious message to Taylor Swift while offering a fan some advice about his love life. The Kansas City Chiefs star and Nicole dated on and off for around five years before eventually deciding to part ways in 2022. In September 2023, Kelce then went public with Swift when she watched him play against the Chicago Bears in the NFL. The couple have enjoyed a whirlwind and very public romance since then with Nicole often in the headlines. But, during a recent episode of her Pre Game podcast, Nicole took a call from a listener who asked for advice about getting over her ex-boyfriend who is now dating a 'bad b****'. Nicole's response was extremely gracious towards Swift, admitting it's 'really beautiful' to think your ex's new partner is 'hot'. She said: 'I want to say that it's really beautiful that you have the capacity to acknowledge that his new girl is hot. 'And I think as a woman, something that we struggle with is admitting that the new girl might be popping. She might be the s***. She might be really hot and there's no problem in admitting that. 'Say you play basketball and you're in the playoffs and you lose in the second round, and the team that you lose to goes on to win the championship. All I'm saying is, if I'm gonna lose, I want to lose to the best team now. 'I want you to move on and go do your big one. Make me look good. 'It's so much worse if the guy that you loved and you dated for so long and you're so heartbroken over goes and starts [dating] a dud. Now you look stupid, he looks stupid, we all look stupid. Everybody's questioning your taste. 'So kudos to you for acknowledging she's hot. Give her her flowers. And the reality is them over there, whatever they're doing is their business. They deserve love as much as you do.' It is the second piece of great news that Swift has received in the past 24 hours. In a lengthy note posted to her official website on Friday, Swift announced she has regained control over her entire body of work. She wrote: 'All of the music I've ever made now belongs to me.' The pop star said she purchased her catalog of recordings - originally released through Big Machine Records - from their most recent owner, the private equity firm Shamrock Capital. She did not disclose the amount. In recent years, Swift has been rerecording and releasing her first six albums in an attempt to regain control of her music. 'I can´t thank you enough for helping to reunite me with this art that I have dedicated my life to, but have never owned until now,' Swift addressed fans in the post. 'The best things that have ever been mine... finally actually are.' 'We are thrilled with this outcome and are so happy for Taylor,' Shamrock Capital said in a statement.
