Lindsay Lohan's Old Navy Set Is on Sale for Under $50 Right Now
On Friday, Old Navy dropped an '80s-inspired athleisure campaign starring Lohan (and certified hottie Dylan Efron). And, aside from the fact that it's basically a millennial fever dream, we can't get over Lindsay's red-hot workout set—which just so happens to be on sale right now for under $50.
Lohan—who doesn't just cosplay as a hot pilates mom, but actually is one IRL—pairs the brand's Light Support PowerSoft Longline Sports Bra with matching High-Waisted PowerSoft 7/8 Leggings, a style she calls her fav from the brand.
The $19 top offers light compression with a buttery soft, sweat-wicking fabric that will keep you dry—whether you're hitting a hot yoga class or just...watching Dylan Efron casually lift that dumbbell. It also features a shelf bra with a brushed-elastic hem, removable cups, and a racerback fit that's sooo supportive. The leggings are crafted from the same material and have a contrasting piping and red side panels that pop against the red.
"I like the red for a workout," Lohan told Who What Wear of the bright shade. "I think it's fun; it's nice sometimes to go exercise wearing a color because it can brighten your mood."
Lindsay isn't the only fan, though. Shoppers rave about the "flattering" high-rise fit of the leggings and "super soft material" on both styles.
"I'm a personal trainer, so I'm in workout leggings every day," one customer says. "These do not disappoint. The quality is great, fit and comfort are amazing, they're not see-through, and they hold up well in the wash."
Now, if you'll pardon me, I have a Lohan-approved workout set just sitting in my cart waiting for a credit card. TTYL!

'Alien: Earth' might just be my favorite show of all time — and it proves the franchise is thriving
Hearing we were getting a TV show set in the 'Alien' franchise had me a little worried at first. As a superfan, I've always found the iconic sci-fi horror movies incredibly effective, especially in how much terror they pack into just 90 minutes of claustrophobic space. So, the idea of stretching that into eight hours of content definitely gave me some concerns. But now, having seen the first six episodes, I can confidently say I'm genuinely blown away. I'll admit some of my opinion might be a little biased, but I tried to distance my love for the franchise and be critical of 'Alien: Earth' fairly. Even then, it still blew me away. 'Alien: Earth' is pure sci-fi goodness, wrapped in a smart TV show format that's equal parts character drama and savage horror. There's so much to appreciate here, and showrunner Noah Hawley exceeded all expectations. He clearly knows the franchise inside and out, delivering exactly what fans want from an 'Alien' series. With a flashy marketing campaign (including an exhibit at the Natural History Museum in London) Disney and Hulu clearly want 'Alien: Earth' to be the next big TV event. And I'm not alone in thinking this: my colleague Rory Mellon called it the best new show of the year in his review. Now that 'Alien: Earth' is streaming its first two episodes on Hulu (and Disney Plus in the U.K.), I just have to talk about why it might rank as my No. 1 show of all time, and why you need to stream it right now. Most of the 'Alien' movies follow a group of human characters (plus an android) who come face-to-face with the Xenomorp, with each of them dying one by one until only the final girl remains. 'Alien: Romulus' leans heavily on this concept, and while I still love this format (and wouldn't mind seeing it used in future 'Alien' movies), I'm glad 'Alien: Earth' breaks away from it. Don't get me wrong, in the first two episodes we follow a group of search and rescue soldiers who encounter the Xenomorph aboard the Weyland wreckage (and soon discover exactly what they're up against). Episode 5 takes that format almost entirely, feeling like a 60-minute 'Alien' movie, which was incredible. But for the most part, the series breaks that mold in a really smart way. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. That comes down to its storytelling structure and how Hawley clearly wanted to explore the concept of 'man is the monster' even further. Instead of following characters' traumatic survival on a spaceship, we're introduced to Prodigy, a major Earth-based corporation that, in 2120, is one of five companies governing the planet. Prodigy is another example of corporate greed, led by the ego-inflated, shoe-hating CEO Boy Kavalier, who is very unlikeable (Samuel Blenkin delivers one of the strongest performances). After learning about the Weyland research vessel crashing into his city, he becomes determined to obtain everything on that ship including every species that was caged on board. 'Alien: Earth' strays from the usual movie format by introducing multiple species and showing how organizations like Prodigy constantly hunt for the next big innovation. Instead of characters dying one by one, the group of hybrids in 'Earth' must survive the very organization that created them. Unfortunately, in the process, they encounter several species (and the deadly Xenomorph) under far from ideal circumstances. In essence, 'Alien: Earth' expands the franchise's storytelling from a simple survival horror into a deeper, more layered drama about corporate power, scientific experimentation, and diverse alien threats. It's a remarkable piece of TV. I think any 'Alien' fan will agree that the franchise has always been visually stunning. Even the clean aesthetic of 'Prometheus' was pleasing to look at, alongside the grittiness of 'Romulus' and the rough, gritty look of 'Alien 3' (despite some dodgy special effects). 'Alien: Earth' takes all these elements and meshes them together. We experience the claustrophobic terror of spaceship corridors, the sleek corporate design of scientific labs inside Prodigy's main building, and the fresh addition of the natural setting at the Neverland research facility, which is something new for the franchise. From the very first scene in episode one, it nails the vibe. You could probably guess it's 'Alien' even if you closed your eyes and listened to the sound alone, including the iconic clicking of the computer interface. Every aspect of the TV show screams 'Alien' and I found myself almost jumping with excitement when something recognizable pops up. The set design, haunting music, and satisfying opening title sequences only add to the quality of this incredible series. Most of all, I had so much fun watching 'Alien: Earth,' and I was sad every time an episode ended. Franchise fans will eat it up, and even those who haven't encountered any piece of 'Alien' media can still enjoy this show with no prior knowledge. Hawley does an incredible job setting up the story and characters without relying on lore from the movies. Plus, even though we see 'more Xenomorph on screen,' the design is still incredible. I'm glad they stuck with practical effects for the costumes, especially since other species required special effects. The Xenomorph looks as cool as ever with its flashy silver fangs and dripping drool, and horror fans will especially love how gory things get. This show actually has some pretty shocking scenes, to say the least. Based on the first six episodes, I could easily say 'Alien: Earth' is my favorite show of all time. Maybe. 'The Walking Dead' has been my top show for years and one I've rewatched the most, so it's hard to say anything could truly top that. But 'Alien: Earth' is definitely giving it a run for its money. In fact, I'd fight a Xenomorph barehanded to experience this sci-fi masterpiece again for the first time. The first two episodes of "Alien: Earth" are now streaming on Hulu in the U.S and Disney Plus in the U.K.

The actor Manny Jacinto says the best marriage advice he's ever gotten is to go to couples therapy when things are good
"Freakier Friday" actor Manny Jacinto knows that the honeymoon phase doesn't last forever, but he doesn't wait for cracks to show before working on his marriage. In an interview with Cosmopolitan published on Tuesday, Jacinto said a good piece of relationship advice he once received was to "go to couples therapy before you need it." "It goes for therapy in general. You don't want to be going to couples therapy when you're in a really bad spot because sometimes it might be too late," Jacinto told Cosmopolitan. Having a neutral third party can help with communication and deepen understanding between partners, he said. Moreover, maintaining a marriage requires constant effort. "It takes work, time, and communication, but it's worth it. If it was easy, everybody would stay married. But it's not easy," Jacinto said. Jacinto, also known for his roles in "Top Gun: Maverick" and "Star Wars: The Acolyte," married fellow actor Dianne Doan in 2021. When navigating relationships, he said he finds it helpful to ask himself whether he is reacting to his feelings or to what his partner is actually saying. "So it can be as simple as, 'Am I hungry and is this why I'm acting like this? Or did I not get enough sleep? Am I actually responding to what they're saying properly and giving it the full attention?'" Jacinto said. "Because I noticed that if I don't get a good amount of sleep or if I'm hungry, if I'm having a bad day, that gets passed on to our relationship." A representative for Jacinto did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent by Business Insider outside regular hours. Other Hollywood celebrities have also shared why couples therapy is essential to their relationships. In August 2024, Rob Lowe said he and his wife of over 30 years, Sheryl Berkoff, have gone for counseling even when they "didn't need it." "It's like taking your car in and making sure the engine's running great," Lowe said. In March, Meghan Trainor told Business Insider that she and her husband, Daryl Sabara, started going to marriage counselling once a month. "We heard our friends were in couples therapy, which made us wonder if we should do that, too. We said to ourselves, 'Let's try it and see how we can get even closer,'" Trainor said.

‘Alien' Has Always Feared AI and Big Corporations. That's More Relevant Than Ever
The new FX series 'Alien: Earth' traffics in familiar themes about greed, oligarchy and mysterious robots that tie into what's going on in the real world The 'Alien' movies vary widely in quality — there arguably hasn't been a truly satisfying one since the first two in 1979 and 1986 — but a key thread has endured across the 46 years: However scary the xenomorphs are, 'Alien' has always feared AI and the greed of faceless corporations. And in that respect, its time has come. The latest entry in the franchise, 'Alien: Earth,' which premieres on Tuesday, certainly exhibits those political undercurrents while bringing the threat home, both in the location and the shift from theaters to FX and Hulu, where only your neighbors can hear you scream. More from TheWrap Jimmy Fallon's Greg Gutfeld Interview Scores Biggest 'Tonight Show' Audience Since 2023 | Exclusive 'Wednesday' Season 2 Debuts to 50 Million Views in Just 5 Days on Netflix 'Alien' Has Always Feared AI and Big Corporations. That's More Relevant Than Ever Alex Ross Perry's 'Videoheaven' Charts the Rise and Fall of Video Stores, I Was There | Essay Granted, nobody comes to an 'Alien'-branded project — a franchise with one foot firmly planted in sci-fi and horror — for a lecture about the perils of unfettered capitalism. Still, the underlying apprehensions feel even timelier now, from the AI threat to the notion of corporations supplanting governments. 'Alien: Earth' lands at a moment of heightened unease about income inequality and the growing political clout wielded by billionaires like Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos — moguls who have become household names. Their companies, meanwhile, keep growing, with trillion-dollar valuations — which would have sounded like the stuff of science fiction a few decades ago — now a reality, with Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and Google among those cracking that barrier. 'The Trillion Dollar Stock Club Is Bigger — and Richer— Than Ever,' blared Barron's headline closing 2024. Despite healthy profits, those same companies are also embracing AI in a way that both ignores potential unintended consequences and threatens the careers of its own employees. Several have explicitly stated as much, with Amazon CEO Andy Jassey issuing a memo in June spelling out that the technology will 'reduce our total corporate workforce as we get efficiency gains from using AI extensively across the company.' The eight-episode series takes the real-world drift toward corporate oligarchy to its dystopian extreme, with Earth governed by five massive corporations, which, as usual, exhibit few compunctions about sacrificing human life to advance their objectives and enhance their profits. In the broad strokes, though, this latest addition to the mythology — as conceived by showrunner Noah Hawley, who previously translated 'Fargo' to TV — very much contains the same core of distrusting those in charge, along with some new wrinkles that work more fitfully. The end game of those corporate objectives as usual remains murky, but again involves using synthetic androids — whose actions and motivations prove suspect — and seeking the means to capitalize on the alien creatures. Naturally, that requires the customary hubris about attempting to cash in on something so uncontrollable, unpredictable and dangerous. By adding a human face, in the form of a young technocrat (Samuel Blenkin) running a company appropriately named Prodigy Corp., 'Alien: Earth' does endeavor to make the story more contemporary. The self-proclaimed 'boy genius' feels like a composite inspired by any number of CEOs, which says something about this plutocratic moment given that the character would have seemed exaggerated or cartoonish before the modern tech explosion. As Hawley said during a pre-launch press conference, 'If I had done the 1970s version of capitalism it wouldn't have felt right for the world we live in today,' adding that humanity is 'trapped between the AI future and the monsters of the past.' The shock of the first 'Alien' — beyond wedding a haunted house to striking monster biology and set design — hinged in part on the cavalier attitude 'the company' harbored toward the lives of the crew. What they intended to do with the xenomorph was ill defined — something about the bio-weapons division — but the key point was treating the survival of those manning the ship as a secondary concern. That aspect became even more pronounced in the brilliant sequel 'Aliens,' directed by James Cameron, which features Paul Reiser as Burke, a mid-level manager, and the kind of corporate suck-up everyone has encountered. Burke gradually reveals who he is, balking at eradicating the aliens because a space installation has a 'substantial dollar value,' before seeking to curry favor from his superiors by allowing Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) and a young child to be 'impregnated' by the monster in order to bring specimens home. As Ripley says whens he exposes the plot, 'You know, Burke, I don't know which species is worse. You don't see them fucking each other over for a goddamn percentage.' Their shortcomings aside, the subsequent films, up to last year's 'Alien: Romulus,' have continued playing with these themes. Even after it was given a name, the company, Weyland-Yutani, cares more about the research and development possibilities in that enticing alien DNA than preserving the humans in its employ. Of course, there's some irony in that, since 'Alien' has itself become a title with a 'substantial dollar value,' spanning nine movies (including two crossovers with the 'Predator' franchise) totaling almost $2 billion in global box office. In an interview last year, original director Ridley Scott conceded the third and fourth films 'ran that firmly into the ground,' while more generously appraising the subsequent sequels, having directed two of them. In later episodes, 'Alien: Earth' pointedly addresses some of the issues the franchise has contemplated, with a character discussing the irony of smart people who are 'too stupid to realize you don't bring parasites home with you.' There's a possible lesson there regarding AI, where the lure of its potential might be blinding us to its dangers, and massive real-world companies appear either oblivious — or worse, indifferent — to the societal harm that it might do. That's evident in the commentary from the likes of Meta and OpenAI, who are pouring billions of dollars in an AI arms race against each other and China. Even if the robots don't murder us, as envisioned in the sci-fi version of these scenarios, they appear more tangibly destined to replace us by killing off a lot of our jobs. The employees in 'Alien: Earth' also recognize who's calling the shots, with one acknowledging that everything being done and the risks they're facing are 'always about power,' which includes exploring space to serve the company's ends. 'Alien' notably premiered at the close of the 1970s, a decade seen as a golden age for paranoid conspiracy thrillers — including those that reflected the callousness of corporate greed, like 'The China Syndrome' and 'Coma.' In that sense, having five corporations run things, like the American Mafia's five families, hardly feels like an accident. Because in 'Alien,' then and now, 'the company' rules the world, and the rest of us just try to hang on working for them. 'Alien: Earth' premieres Aug. 12 on FX and Hulu.
