Salma Hayek, 58, uses this Clinique lipstick to get her perfect pout
There's just something about a good swipe of lipstick that can take your day from zero to 100. Whether it's a vibrant red (à la Taylor Swift), deep berry or a classic nude — and Salma Hayek agrees. In an interview with The New York Times, the award-winning actress and all-around Hollywood icon divulged her go-to beauty favorites. The secret behind those lips? "I love the lip colors and textures of the Clinique Pop line," she shared. What the what? We just learned that another celebrity also swears by this lipstick with an iconic Clinique Black Honey topcoat. Are we looking at a Clinique lippie takeover? We certainly hope so. Let us count the ways in which the Clinique Pop colors and formula are truly divine.
The creamy Clinique lipstick (with the cutest packaging) is specifically formulated to last for up to eight hours without drying out the lips — yes, even if you wear the matte finish. How? Well, it's designed with a built-in primer for smooth and strong application. It also happens to be free of any fragrances, parabens and phthalates.
It's not just Salma who's a fan! Thousands of shoppers have given it a perfect five-star review, from Clinique loyalists to total newbies.
"My favorite lipstick," shared one Clinique fan in their five-star review. "This lipstick goes on smoothly, lasts a long time and does not dry out my lips. My favorite shades are Love Pop for a bit of color and Bare Pop which is the perfect nude lip shade against my fair skin. For a little shine, I pair it with a Clinique gloss. I keep both colors in my desk and my purse."
Another Clinique loyalist wrote that it's "better than" their usual Clinique Dramatically Different lipstick: "I decided to give this one a try for comparison's sake and am so glad I did! This lipstick lasts such a long time. I do reapply after eating. I get just as many compliments as I did with the other lipstick but I definitely feel I get more for my money and am now a loyal follower."
"The lipstick is great," raved another happy customer. "The tint is very cute and it's moisturizing. It doesn't make my lips look chapped at all."
"This is a quality lipstick," explained this final five-star reviewer. "The packaging is so cute and it goes on very well." However, they did add: " It's not as long-lasting as some of my others, but it's decent. It also has nice pigment and just feels very silky and nice when you apply. I'm a big fan."
Looking for another Clinique lippie to round out your collection? The Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey is a no-brainer. The universally flattering lipstick/balm/gloss combo has been a celeb favorite since the '90s (think icons like Drew Barrymore, Courtney Cox and Julia Roberts). One coat adds a little oomph to your natural lip color, or you can swipe on a few coats for a richer berry tint.
And if you're thinking, "Clinique... wasn't their mascaras and shadow sticks great, too?" we've got your back.

Taylor Swift's 'Reputation' Album Surges Back to Top Five on Charts Following Masters Purchase
Taylor Swift's Reputation has jumped back into the top-five on Billboard's 200 albums chart, over a week after the superstar announced that she had finally gained ownership of the album and the rest of her catalog from her old Big Machine record deal. According to Billboard, consumption on Reputation rose 221 percent, with the album earning 42,000 album equivalent units this past week. She sold 15,000 albums, and the album also had about 34.75 million streams. More from The Hollywood Reporter 'Outer Banks' Actor Jonathan Daviss to Star as Snoop Dogg in Universal Biopic 'Boy George & Culture Club' Review: An Affectionate Look at the '80s Band and Its Flamboyant Frontman That Entertains but Treads Too Carefully Sony Music Publishing Acquires Hipgnosis Songs Group Reputation wasn't the only one of Swift's old records seeing a bump after she dropped the news of the acquisition: As The Hollywood Reporter reported last week, Spotify streams for Speak Now rose 430 percent the day after the sale, while Taylor Swift streams jumped 220 percent. Fearless streams went up 160 percent, Red climbed 150 percent and 1989 jumped 110 percent. Reputation, which came out in 2017, was the final album Swift recorded with Big Machine before she entered a new deal with Universal Music Group and Republic records. Swifties had previously been anxiously awaiting Reputation (Taylor's Version), though when Swift announced the deal on May 30th, she confirmed that she hadn't even record a quarter of the record yet. 'The Reputation album was so specific to that time in my life, and I kept hitting a stopping point when I tried to remake it,' Swift said. Beyond Reputation, Swift has also yet to release a re-recorded version of her debut album. 'Those 2 albums can still have their moments to re-emerge when the time is right, if that would be something you guys would be excited about,' Swift wrote. 'But if it happens, it won't be from a place of sadness and longing for what I wish I could have. It will just be a celebration now.' Elsewhere on the chart this week, Morgan Wallen spent a third consecutive week at Number One for I'm The Problem, Seventeen's Happy Burstday debuted at Number 2 with 48,000 units, SZA's SOS came in third and Miley Cyrus's Something Beautiful debuted at Number 4 with 44,000 equivalent album units.

Judge dismisses Justin Baldoni's $400M countersuit against Blake Lively
Judge dismisses Justin Baldoni's $400M countersuit against Blake Lively Show Caption Hide Caption Blake Lively's team slams Baldoni's over Taylor Swift subpoena Blake Lively's team has condemned Justin Baldoni's team's decision to subpoena Taylor Swift, calling it a blatant attempt to exploit Lively's friendship for tabloid attention. unbranded - Entertainment Justin Baldoni's $400 million countersuit against his "It Ends with Us" costar Blake Lively, her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and The New York Times has been dismissed by a judge. The "It Ends with Us" director first sued Lively, Reynolds and the Times after the actress went public with claims Baldoni sexually harassed her and helped orchestrate a smear campaign against her. The lawsuit was filed in response to Lively's sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit in late 2024. Judge Lewis Liman granted a June 9 motion for dismissal from Lively's legal team because Baldoni's claims of civil extortion, defamation and false light did not hold up legally. However, the judge is allowing Baldoni's team another chance to address specific claims by filing a second amended complaint – for breach of implied covenant and tortious interference with contract – by June 23. Reynolds, Lively and publicist Leslie Sloane's request for Baldoni to cover their attorneys' fees was denied without prejudice, meaning their request could also be refiled. USA TODAY has reached out to Baldoni's reps for comment. "Today's opinion is a total victory and a complete vindication for Blake Lively, along with those that Justin Baldoni and the Wayfarer Parties dragged into their retaliatory lawsuit, including Ryan Reynolds, Leslie Sloane and The New York Times," Lively's lawyers said in a Monday, June 9, statement to USA TODAY. "As we have said from day one, this '$400 million' lawsuit was a sham, and the Court saw right through it," the statement continued. "We look forward to the next round, which is seeking attorneys' fees, treble damages and punitive damages against Baldoni, Sarowitz, Nathan, and the other Wayfarer Parties who perpetrated this abusive litigation." In a filing reviewed by USA TODAY, the judge noted that Baldoni's complaint focused on two main claims. First, he alleged Lively threatened to refuse to promote "It Ends with Us" and attack him publicly if he didn't agree to give her control over the movie. The complaint argued this amounted to civil extortion. But Liman said the complaint did not adequately allege that Lively's "threats were wrongful extortion rather than legally permissible hard bargaining or renegotiation of working conditions." The judge also determined that Baldoni and his fellow plaintiffs failed to show that they were damaged by some of Lively's allegedly "extortionate acts." Secondly, Baldoni's complaint alleged that Lively, Reynolds, Sloane and the Times "spread a false narrative that Baldoni committed sexual misconduct towards" Lively and engaged in a smear campaign against her. But the judge said the complaint did not allege that Lively "is responsible for any statements" other than those made in a California Civil Rights Department complaint, which are privileged. As for statements made by Reynolds, Sloane and the Times, the judge said the complaint did not allege that these parties "would have seriously doubted these statements were true based on the information available to them," which is required for them to be liable for defamation.

'Keeping Up With Taylor Swift' Serving As Travis Kelce Motivation?
'Keeping Up With Taylor Swift' Serving As Travis Kelce Motivation? originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is embarking on what many think will be his last NFL season, and his motivation for turning his form around might just be his girlfriend, Taylor Swift. Advertisement With the pair seen as the biggest power couple on the planet right now, there isn't much that the pair does that doesn't get attention. Kelce is coming off a poor season, and for ESPN's Hannah Storm, she jokingly thinks that Travis' motivation for 2025 might be Swift due to her ability to have such long concerts on back-to-back nights. 'Can I just say, he's got to keep up with his girlfriend, who can do a three-and-a-half-hour concert without skipping a beat,' Storm said on SportsCenter. 'And she does it back-to-back nights, you gotta keep up." Taylor Swift (left) and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (right).Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images So will Kelce get his 2025 motivation from Swift and her efforts on tour? Possibly. Advertisement With the couple able to navigate some troubled seas after the Super Bowl loss, now they appear to be better than ever, with Travis now looking to end his storied career in a good way. It isn't known if Swift will be in attendance at any of the Chiefs' home games, given the scrutiny aimed at her and Travis after the Super Bowl, but we imagine she will make herself known a couple of times this year. As far as Travis' motivation for 2025, he doesn't have to look any further than how last year ended, but if he is short on it as he enters Year 13, then maybe looking at how Swift conducts herself might be the next step for the future Hall of Famer.
