Jessica Simpson Is Making a Music Comeback With Western-Glam Nails
Simpson performed on Today for the first time in nearly two decades for the show's outdoor concert series, bringing the live and TV audiences new music, as well as some of the hits for which she became so well-known. Her look could best be described as Western bohemian glam, with an iridescent, fringy jacket over a pale pink, corsetted dress and topped off with a large cross necklace. She also wore oversized rings, including a massive turquoise piece—but that's not the only place on her fingers where stones showed up.
Each long nail featured a different design. There's leopard print with a bejeweled zodiac symbol for Cancer, silver mixed with pearls, a metallic French tip, and more turquoise—and that's just some of what's on her left hand. The eclectic gem party continued on the right hand, which included the word 'Fade'—the name of her new single—written in three-dimensional red polish on her middle finger.
Her beauty look was rounded out with a bronder-than-usual color on her go-to long, voluminous hair, and she went for a full-out face in muted tones, including a super-glossy lip.
Simpson might have been out of the music spotlight for a while, but now that she's returned, we can't wait to see what other glam inspo she brings to the stage.

Not just Big Bird: Things to know about the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and its funding cuts
Not just Big Bird: Things to know about the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and its funding cuts The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which helps pay for PBS, NPR, 1,500 local radio and television stations as well as programs like 'Sesame Street' and 'Finding Your Roots,' said Friday that it would close after the U.S. government withdrew funding. The organization told employees that most staff positions will end with the fiscal year on Sept. 30. A small transition team will stay until January to finish any remaining work. The private, nonprofit corporation was founded in 1968 shortly after Congress authorized its formation. It now ends nearly six decades of fueling the production of renowned educational programming, cultural content and emergency alerts about natural disasters. Here's what to know: Losing funding President Donald Trump signed a bill on July 24 canceling about $1.1 billion that had been approved for public broadcasting. The White House says the public media system is politically biased and an unnecessary expense, and conservatives have particularly directed their ire at NPR and PBS. Lawmakers with large rural constituencies voiced concern about what the cuts could mean for some local public stations in their state. They warned some stations will have to close. The Senate Appropriations Committee on Thursday reinforced the policy change by excluding funding for the corporation for the first time in more than 50 years as part of a broader spending bill. How it began Congress passed legislation creating the body in 1967, several years after then-Federal Communications Commission Chairman Newton Minow described commercial television a 'vast wasteland' and called for programming in the public interest. The corporation doesn't produce programming and it doesn't own, operate or control any public broadcasting stations. The corporation, PBS, NPR are independent of each other as are local public television and radio stations. Rural stations hit hard Roughly 70% of the corporation's money went directly to 330 PBS and 246 NPR stations across the country. The cuts are expected to weigh most heavily on smaller public media outlets away from big cities, and it's likely some won't survive. NPR's president estimated as many as 80 NPR stations may close in the next year. Mississippi Public Broadcasting has already decided to eliminate a streaming channel that airs children's programming like 'Caillou' and 'Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood' 24 hours a day. Maine's public media system is looking at a hit of $2.5 million, or about 12% of its budget, for the next fiscal year. The state's rural residents rely heavily on public media for weather updates and disaster alerts. In Kodiak, Alaska, KMXT estimated the cuts would slice 22% from its budget. Public radio stations in the sprawling, heavily rural state often provide not just news but alerts about natural disasters like tsunamis, landslides and volcanic eruptions. From Big Bird to war documentaries The first episode of 'Sesame Street' aired in 1969. Child viewers, adults and guest stars alike were instantly hooked. Over the decades, characters from Big Bird to Cookie Monster and Elmo have become household favorites Entertainer Carol Burnett appeared on that inaugural episode. She told The Associated Press she was a big fan. "I would have done anything they wanted me to do,' she said. 'I loved being exposed to all that goodness and humor.' Sesame Street said in May it would also get some help from a Netflix streaming deal. Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. started 'Finding Your Roots' in 2006 under the title 'African American Lives.' He invited prominent Black celebrities and traced their family trees into slavery. When the paper trail ran out, they would use DNA to see which ethnic group they were from in Africa. Challenged by a viewer to open the show to non-Black celebrities, Gates agreed and the series was renamed 'Faces of America,' which had to be changed again after the name was taken. The show is PBS's most-watched program on linear TV and the most-streamed non-drama program. Season 10 reached nearly 18 million people across linear and digital platforms and also received its first Emmy nomination. Grant money from the nonprofit has also funded lesser-known food, history, music and other shows created by stations across the country. Documentarian Ken Burns, celebrated for creating the documentaries 'The Civil War,' 'Baseball' and 'The Vietnam War', told PBS NewsHour said the corporation accounted for about 20% of his films' budgets. He said he would make it up but projects receiving 50% to 75% of their funding from the organization won't. Influence of shows Children's programing in the 1960s was made up of shows like 'Captain Kangaroo,' ''Romper Room' and the violent skirmishes between 'Tom & Jerry.' "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood' mostly taught social skills. 'Sesame Street' was designed by education professionals and child psychologists to help low-income and minority students aged 2-5 overcome some of the deficiencies they had when entering school. Social scientists had long noted white and higher income kids were often better prepared. One of the most widely cited studies about the impact of 'Sesame Street' compared households that got the show with those who didn't. It found that the children exposed to 'Sesame Street' were 14% more likely to be enrolled in the correct grade level for their age at middle and high school. Over the years, 'Finding Your Roots' showed Natalie Morales discovering she's related to one of the legendary pirates of the Caribbean and former 'Saturday Night Live' star Andy Samberg finding his biological grandmother and grandfather. It revealed that drag queen RuPaul and U.S. Sen. Cory Booker are cousins, as are actors Meryl Streep and Eva Longoria. 'The two subliminal messages of 'Finding Your Roots,' which are needed more urgently today than ever, is that what has made America great is that we're a nation of immigrants,' Gates told the AP. 'And secondly, at the level of the genome, despite our apparent physical differences, we're 99.99% the same.' Audrey Mcavoy, The Associated Press

Luka Doncic's Fiancée Is Getting Noticed After Saturday's Contract News
Luka Doncic's Fiancée Is Getting Noticed After Saturday's Contract News originally appeared on The Spun. The Los Angeles Lakers got a two-fold bargain with NBA megastar Luka Doncic, first by acquiring him in a blockbuster trade in February and now by signing him to a lucrative extension six months later. On Saturday, the Lakers reportedly signed Doncic to a max contract for three years and $165 million. The deal keeps him in L.A. through the end of his 20s and potentially the end of LeBron James' time with the team. "I just signed my extension with the Lakers. Excited to keep working to bring championships to LA and make Laker Nation proud. Grateful to the Lakers, my teammates and all the fans who've shown so much love since day one. This is just the beginning," he proudly announced this morning. "Today I'm also committing $5 million to help 77 young athletes around the world chase their dreams, just like I did. Basketball gave me everything, and I'm lucky to be able to give back and help the next generation." A happy family Though he was already a wealthy man, the contract ensures that Doncic will have generational wealth to support both his fiancée Anamaria Goltes and their two-year-old daughter Gabriela. Doncic and Goltes have been inseparable since meeting in Croatia as teenagers and are nearing a decade together. Goltes has built a nice career for herself as a digital creator and boasts over a quarter-million followers on Instagram. Though she has not posted much in the past few months, everything she shares gets tons and tons of love from Doncic's many fans. "People have [a] best friend, boyfriend, true love. I'm lucky they are all the same person," Goltes wrote on an Instagram post in 2018. At the start of Luka's new career in Los Angeles, she and Gabriela showed up to one of his first games with the team, both sporting adorable Lakers shirts with his No. 77 number on the back. "New chapter 💛💜," she wrote on February 11. Goltes and Luka have been very careful to keep their daughter's face hidden from cameras (a smart move given what some people can do with children's faces on the internet these days), but she is more than willing to pose for the camera when the situation arises: When she's not spending time with Doncic himself, Goltes can be seen caring for one of several adorable furry friends: What does the future hold? Doncic and Goltes got engaged in July 2023 but there are a slew of reasons that the wedding itself hasn't happened yet. Security could certainly be a reason. The couple's home was burglarized back in December. On the court, things look very bright for Doncic. Even if he doesn't win an NBA title with LeBron James at his side, he is primed to be the face of L.A. basketball for the remainder of the decade and potentially beyond. He'll have his soon-to-be-wife at his side for the rest of the journey. Now if Doncic can just learn to stay in shape for 82 Doncic's Fiancée Is Getting Noticed After Saturday's Contract News first appeared on The Spun on Aug 2, 2025 This story was originally reported by The Spun on Aug 2, 2025, where it first appeared.
