Stassi Schroeder can add swimsuit model to her résumé
Stassi Schroeder can now add swimsuit model to her résumé. The 36-year-old stepped out of her comfort zone and conquered a major fear as she walked the runway in Saturday's Sports Illustrated Swimsuit show in Miami, FL. Schroeder, a former cast member of the hit Bravo reality show Vanderpump Rules, was fired in 2020 following a prank she and fellow co-star Kristen Doute played on cast mate Faith Stowers.Now a married mom of two, Schroeder shares glimpses of her life with her adorable toddlers, Hartford (4) and Messer (2), on social media. She and husband Beau Clark are raising their young family while Schroeder continues to stay in the spotlight. She's also a main cast member in Season 2 of Vanderpump Villa, but it's her new foray into modeling that has the internet buzzing.
Fans joked in response, 'But has anyone checked on Scheana!?' — a reference to her former Vanderpump co-star Scheana Shay, whose dream of joining Dancing with the Stars was crushed when fellow castmate Ariana Madix got the call first.In May, Schroeder revealed in a social media video that she'd been asked to walk in the SI Swimsuit runway show on May 31. 'HOW DID SOMEONE OKAY THIS,' she captioned the video, admitting it would come as a 'shock' to anyone watching.
Schroeder did indeed walk in Saturday's runway show — and she slayed. Bopping down the runway with newfound confidence and a perfectly fit body that shows no sign of having birthed two children, Schroeder is inspiring moms everywhere to feel more confident in a swimsuit this summer — even if you never get asked to strut your stuff on a runway.

This ‘Top Gun' star visited S.F. for its Grateful Dead 60th anniversary celebration
Actor Miles Teller and television personality Andy Cohen were among the tens of thousands of Deadheads flowing through Golden Gate Park last weekend to celebrate the lasting legacy of the Grateful Dead. The two were photographed together during one of Dead & Company's sold-out shows at the Polo Field, posing with black sunglasses against the backdrop of the event's packed crowd. Cohen, host of Bravo's late-night talk show 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,' wore a yellow and grey tie dye hoodie, while the ' Top Gun: Maverick ' star had on a white T-shirt and denim jacket. The image was shared by internet personality Maurice Aouad on Tuesday, Aug. 5, as part of a carousel of film photos that he took over the three-day outdoor event, which kicked off Friday, Aug. 1, with bluegrass musician Billy Strings as the opening act. Cohen reposted the image to his Instagram story later that day. Another photo of Cohen and Teller at Golden Gate Park, shared to Instagram by the New York Post's Page Six on Monday, Aug. 4, shows the two taking a selfie amid the crowd, with the stage behind them. The caption notes that the image came from Cohen's Instagram account, but his post seems to have expired since then. It is unclear if they attended all three of Dead & Company's San Francisco concerts, but the two photos appear to have been taken on the same day. Both Teller and Cohen have never been subtle about their Deadheads status. Cohen even has a Highlight saved to his Instagram profile titled 'Grateful Stuff,' filled with archived story posts of his experiences at Dead & Company concerts. Teller previously revealed that fans sent him Grateful Dead T-shirts after he and his wife, Keleigh Sperry Teller, lost their Los Angeles home to the Palisades fire at the start of the year. He also recounted a "spiritual experience' that he had while watching Grateful Dead founding member Bob Weir perform during college. 'From then on, that was it,' Teller told NME Magazine. 'I was sold.' The historic weekend celebrated the legacy of the Bay Area jam band and its members, old and new. Festivities kicked off Thursday, July 31, with the Heart of Town concert series. The three-night event was organized by Grahame Lesh, son of late Grateful Dead bassist Phil Lesh, and featured appearances by Dallas musician Stephen Stills, Los Angeles folk rock group Dawes and Melvin Seals, longtime member of the Jerry Garcia Band . A number of free celebrations took place in tandem, from the open-air, city-sanctioned Shakedown Street market to the Jerry Garcia Street naming event and Dead drummer Mickey Hart's ' Art at the Edge of Magic ' exhibition at Haight Street Art Center.

Jussie Smollett, Jessie James Decker & More Will Be Put to the Test on ‘Special Forces' Season 4
Jussie Smollett and Jessie James Decker both have what it takes to make the Billboard charts, but do they have the fortitude to pass some of the most difficult tasks that some members of the military face during training? Fans will get a chance to find out, as the musicians are joining season four of Fox's Special Forces: World's Toughest Test. 'It was at this moment I said… 'I should've just done The Masked Singer,'' Smollett joked in his Instagram post sharing the news of his casting. More from Billboard Homeland Security Tweets 'South Park' Image as ICE Recruitment Tool Ice-T Will Host 'Fame and Fentanyl' Documentary Examining National Epidemic: 'Everyone Knows Someone' Watch Eminem's Hilarious Outtakes From 'Happy Gilmore 2': 'Put Some Respect on My Name, B—h' The network announced the latest batch of celebrity contestants for the competition show on Wednesday (Aug. 6). In addition to the former Empire star, whose conviction for allegedly staging a racist and homophobic attack on himself was overturned in 2024, and the country singer, who finished in 10th place on season 31 of Dancing With the Stars, a host of reality TV stars as well as athletes and other personalities will put their abilities to the test, this time in Morocco and led by a team of ex-special forces members. Among the 18 contestants are Brianna 'Chickenfry' LaPaglia, whose split from country star Zach Bryan in 2024 made headlines; Vanderpump Rules and The Valley's Brittany Cartwright; Sister Wives star Kody Brown; Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson East; present and former NFL players Randall Cobb, Eric Decker (who is married to Jessie James Decker), Andrew East (married to Shawn Johnson East) and Johnny Manziel; soccer star Christie Pearce Rampone; model Chanel Iman and more. Smollett and Jessie James Decker aren't the first musicians to attempt Special Forces. Spice Girl Mel B, country singer Beverley Mitchell and Jamie Lynn Spears all competed in season one. Season two saw JoJo Siwa and Vanderpump Rules star and Most Extras cover band frontman Tom Sandoval attempt the course. The third season did not feature any musicians. None of the musician contestants passed the Special Forces training course. Season four is set to kick off on Sept. 25 at 9 p.m. on Fox. It will also stream the next day on Hulu.

Big pop star is moving to Miami, and he just bought a ‘Housewives' house
Talk about your big time celebrity real estate transactions. 'Real Housewives of Miami' alum Nicole Martin and her attorney fiancé Anthony Lopez just sold their Coral Gables megamansion to pop star Robbie Williams. Price tag: a cool $40 million. Dennis Carvajal with ONE Sotheby's International Realty represented the local power couple, while the British singer was repped by Chad Carroll at Compass, the Miami Herald was told. According to the description on the 19,380-square-foot, seven bedroom, eight bathroom waterfront estate sits on a one-acre peninsula in the exclusive gated enclave of Old Cutler Bay. Lopez and Martin, parents of two, purchased the property, built in 2016, in 2022 for $21.5 million, then gave it a major glow-up, as seen in a few episodes of the Bravo hit. The sprawling, so-called smart home is 'designed for both everyday living and grand entertaining,' with such amenities as a movie theater, wine cellar, gym, massage room/spa, resort style pool, 18-car garage, a dock, plus views for days. As huge as this Mediterranean-style compound is, Bravo reports that Williams has plans to add even more square footage and build a recording studio on site. It's unclear why Martin and Lopez wanted to unload the palatial abode, which came fully furnished, as part of Williams' off-market deal. The anesthesiologist left 'RHOM' last year amid struggles with her mental health, but recently made a guest appearance on the show. She and Lopez also have a stunning retreat in Aspen, Colorado. As for Williams, it's also unclear why the former Take That band member wanted to move to South Florida, besides the obvious reasons. The 'Angels' hitmaker recently sold his Beverly Hills mansion to Drake for $75 million. The music star is married to California native/ 'X Factor' judge Ayda Field and they have four school age kids. Let's give the whole family a warm Miami welcome.
