'The Life of a Showgirl' has no merch yet. Swifties took matters into their own hands.
It only took a twenty-second video clip for Taylor Swift fans to start buying into the singer's 12th album. Swift announced the name of her newest album, "The Life of a Showgirl," in a teaser for an Aug. 13 episode of "New Heights," the podcast hosted by her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and his brother, Jason Kelce. After the news broke, Swifties were quick to create their own merchandise, from friendship bracelets to crewnecks inspired by the album's name and color scheme. While Swift's store typically releases official merchandise, items for "The Life of a Showgirl" haven't been released yet, with the exception of a vinyl that's available to preorder. Here's a look at the fan-made merchandise available online. Swift's team files trademark applications for 'The Life of a Showgirl' TAS Rights Management, a company that manages Swift's intellectual property, filed trademark applications on Aug. 11 for phrases related to "The Life of a Showgirl." According to applications filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the company is pending approval for trademarks of the term "The Life of a Showgirl" and the abbreviation "TLOAS." This could hint that merch is on its way — the applications cover the use of the terms for goods like jewelry, stationery, tops and more. While the trademarks are pending, if approved, they would limit the use of the album's name in fan-made merchandise. However, Swifties have still gotten creative with their nods to "The Life of a Showgirl." See 'Life of a Showgirl' merch created by Swifties Many showgirl-inspired merch items for sale include the orange and green color scheme that has quickly become synonymous with the album. A post shared by Beyond Epic Shop (@beyondepic_shop) Pink Dinosaur, an online and Kansas City-based boutique, launched preorders for a line of shirts featuring terms like "new era," "TS12" and "Taylor 12." A post shared by Pink Dinosaur (@shopthepinkdinosaur) Independent sellers on Etsy have also released items celebrating the album, from phone cases and shirts to friendship bracelets. According to Etsy's seller handbook, third-party sellers may be able to use designs and phrases inspired by items such as albums and celebrity names. However, if items infringe or violate existing trademarks, both the platform and intellectual property owners can push to take down the products. TheRomanticsCo, a Texas-based seller, rolled out a slew of showgirl shirts with phrases like "off duty showgirl," "showgirl era" and "showgirl life."

There's one ‘SNL' impression Bowen Yang tried to talk his way out of. (It didn't work.)
For the first episode of 'Saturday Night Live's' 50th season, Bowen Yang dressed up as Moo Deng, a baby hippo the internet was then obsessed with. Yang's all-in appearance during the series' 'Weekend Update' segment conflated Moo Deng's journey with that of reluctant pop star Chappell Roan — a surprising combination that captivated the audience. 'I was surprised by the way it took off,' Yang says, speaking over Zoom from New York. 'We were juxtaposing these two cultural things, the ways that people were pushing through any sense of boundaries that these two living beings had. It was observational, and I think the response was this force-multiplying thing where people did not think these two lenses could be stuck on top of each other.' As with many of his popular sketches, Yang found it fascinating to follow the trajectory of the appearance after the episode aired. On one hand, he was thrilled by its levity. But he also describes having 'a self-flagellating instinct' to worry it would lose its relevance. 'It has all these different directional tensions to it, and I'm proud of it,' he says. 'But a sketch is such a disposable medium that is both great and that feels like there is no bottom, so you constantly have to keep filling it.' Since joining 'SNL' as a writer in 2018 and then as a cast member in 2019, Yang has delighted viewers with his willingness to play everyone from a famous hippo to George Santos to Charli XCX. He's sung with Lady Gaga, kissed Ariana Grande and portrayed the iceberg that sank the Titanic. His eclectic approach has not only earned him four Emmy nods for supporting actor in a comedy series but also solidified him as a fan favorite. 'My only intention at the show has been to try as many things as possible,' he says. 'With impressions, I'm like, 'Let me just try it. Let me try my hand at these little dishes and go from there.' That was my approach even when I could have really specialized. And I have the show to thank for giving me an opportunity to try out different things.' There was one impression that Yang was less sure about. In Season 50, 'SNL' creator Lorne Michaels asked Yang to play Vice President JD Vance. The comedian says he 'very intentionally' tried to talk Michaels out of it, but he wouldn't budge. 'So I put my best foot forward,' Yang says. 'I hired a dialect coach. I requested a screen test to get the beard right. I tried color contacts. I feel like I've developed this reputation where I will do my best even if I don't think I'm the best person for it.' Yang says he will step back into Vance's beard again for Season 51 if he's called on to reprise the role, even if he would prefer to put his energy elsewhere. 'It might sound like a complaint to say I really didn't want to do it, but it truly just is me reflecting on it,' Yang says. 'I'm really honored and proud to have done it. And I thought a lot about the legacy of other cast members who have done vice presidential impressions in the past, like Beck Bennett, Jason Sudeikis and Tina Fey. Those are all heroic comedians to me.' Being part of 'SNL' has helped to hone Yang's comedic instincts, as well as his ability to pitch and write sketches on an impossibly fast-paced timeline. He's not sure if being on the late-night show has made him funnier, but it has made him quicker. 'You are absorbing every kind of comedic sensibility and every kind of production instinct,' he says. 'I don't think I'm a better comedian, but I do think I have a sense of how to bring something to the finish line.' This year, Yang made Emmy history by becoming the most-nominated Asian male performer, with a total of four acting nominations. The accolade wasn't something that occurred to Yang until it was published in a headline, but he is nonetheless pleased, calling it a 'genuinely singular thing.' He remembers Michaels telling him that 'people won't know what to make of you' during his first season in the cast, and it's gratifying to know that his Asian and gay identities resonate with the audience. 'The best thing about 'SNL' in the last few years is that it's this really representative cross-section of all different schools of comedy,' Yang says. 'We have club comedians, alt comedians, people who came up on TikTok, sketch people, improv people, Black people, queer people — every kind of comedy has a place in the show.' In November, Yang will return as Pfannee in 'Wicked: For Good.' He also hosts a podcast, 'Las Culturistas,' with Matt Rogers. But after the whirlwind of 'Wicked' going to the Oscars and 'SNL' celebrating its 50th anniversary, Yang is not planning to add anything else to his plate as he prepares for the next season of 'SNL.' Still, he admits that he has considered what he might do next. 'Everyone starts thinking about life after 'SNL' as soon as they start 'SNL,'' he says. 'You constantly think about the outcome once you call it or once it's called for you. I could end up on the chopping block, who knows. That was brought to the fore during 'SNL 50.' No matter what happens here at this place, no matter what the political climate is or the cultural climate is, there's something beautiful about being able to gather and reflect and appreciate each other. I can't wait to be on a porch with James Austin Johnson or Sarah Sherman one day, decades from now, and be like, 'Wow. What a trip.''

I'm a 52-year-old fashion influencer. 6 fashion tips women over 40 should know
Christin Bryant has earned more than a million followers on social media. She's a go-to for women who want to incorporate trends into their wardrobe — but don't know how. Christin Bryant knows a thing or two about dressing well at any age. The former marketing executive didn't always plan to become a fashion influencer. Ten years ago, before she created her Instagram account, she was creating her own jewelry that she'd sell on Etsy. Rather than display her bracelets and necklaces against a plain white background, the Edmontonian began styling outfits as inspiration for how to wear her pieces day-to-day. That practical approach became the underpinning of Bryant's fashion philosophy. Today, she has more than a million social media followers who are primarily women within the 30 to 45 age range. They look to her for tips on how to style existing wardrobe pieces, invest in elevated staples and more. Bryant's love of fashion resonates with women who want to maximize their wardrobe and look good doing it. "I like to look current without looking like I follow every single trend," she explained. "And I like things that look expensive and polished, but aren't necessarily that." Recently, Bryant asked her followers to describe their biggest over-40 fashion issues. Many replies included how to dress to camouflage certain parts of the body (midsection, upper arms), how to adopt trends without looking like you're trying to be a teenager and how to stay cool in the summer without showing too much skin. "As we get older, we naturally have a bit more confidence," Bryant said. "Lean into the confidence that comes with age and caring less what others think, because if you feel confident in your outfit and you are confident overall, then nobody's going to remember that maybe your knees are a little wrinkly." Here are Bryant's best fashion tips for dressing when you're over 40. Dress for the body you have Bryant doesn't believe that age should determine what a person wears, but she does believe in dressing for "the body you have right now, and not the body that you used to have — or that you think you may achieve again in the future." Items you used to wear may not feel comfortable anymore, including undergarments. "The older we get, having good quality undergarments can make a big difference," Bryant said. And, a quality shapewear can also help you feel more confident, depending on the garment. "If you're comfortable with your outfit, and it aligns with your personality and where you are in life, you can feel better in the clothes that you wear," she added. Don't get hung up on sizing Trying on clothes can be a frustrating experience, but Bryant hopes a simple shift in mindset will help make your shopping experience easier. "Remember that nobody sees the size number on the tag," she said. "Stores are very inconsistent with sizing, so try several sizes." Finding the best fit should be top of mind. "If it fits you well, then it shouldn't matter." Invest in classic pieces Consider spending more on quality fashion staples that you'll wear again and again, like comfortable shoes, well-made jeans or a nice linen shirt. "As we get older, we maybe have a little bit more disposable income," she said. "Spend time doing some research and find items that really speak to you — these can become cornerstones you can build outfits around, whether it's an accessory or a base piece." Investing in classic accessories — like a watch, a piece of jewelry, or a nice bag — that you can wear with every outfit can become your signature look. Opt for natural fibres — especially in the summer If you're someone experiencing hot flashes or simply run hot, you might want to avoid wearing synthetic fabrics like polyester. That's where natural fibres, such as linen, cotton, or bamboo come into play. "Linen is amazing. In the summer you could wear long linen pants and be just as cool as if you wore short-shorts," she said. Choose trends that align with your style Incorporating a few trends into your wardrobe is a great way to keep your look current, but wearing too many can come across as inauthentic. "If you incorporate all the trends at once, then you might look like you're uncomfortable with your age and trying hard to look younger," she said. Instead, Bryant advises choosing trends carefully, sticking only to the ones that align with your personal style. A low-stakes way to incorporate trending colours, textures or silhouettes is sporting some well-chosen accessories. Follow content creators for inspiration If you do most of your shopping online, Bryant suggests following somebody whose style, size and colouring aligns closely to what you like so you can use their fashion as a resource. You might have to follow multiple influencers, but it helps to understand what might work for your body type, see styling ideas that works for your climate, or get inspiration that feels achievable and relevant to your personal style. 8 pieces Bryant recommends for summer:
