Margaret Qualley Took the Iconic Cosmo Quiz Between Making Movies
You know when someone is so booked and busy it feels kind of spiritual? That's Margaret Qualley right now. Case in point: The very morning she sat down to chat with Cosmopolitan editor-in-chief Willa Bennett for her 60th anniversary cover interview, her latest film Honey Don't!—the second entry in Ethan Coen and Tricia Cooke's Drive-Away Dolls lesbian road trip trilogy—was announced to premiere at Cannes. Not bad for a random Wednesday.
And that's not all she has going on right now. She is also starring in Richard Linklater's Blue Moon and just wrapped Huntington, a darkly funny thriller with Glen Powell—and yes, you did spot her in Happy Gilmore 2 on Netflix last weekend. Somehow, she still managed to show up to the set of her cover shoot on time and with the vibe of a girl who borrowed her best friend's sweater on the way out the door—not the air you'd expect of someone redefining screen stardom before our very eyes.
She understandably had no time to fill out her version of our iconic Cosmo Quiz between photo setups, but she promised she'd get it done—and she's a woman of her word! So she FedEx'd us her completed copy from Italy...where, yes, she was working on yet another movie. (We knew she'd come through!)
Over more than a decade in the game, Margaret's made a name for herself inhabiting characters who sit right at the intersection of womanhood, contradiction, and full-blown emotional hurricane. And we wouldn't have it any other way. The answers to her quiz aren't indicative of any characters though. They're quintessentially Margaret.

Brand new NFL Hall of Famer has wardrobe malfunction doing signature sack celebration
Jared Allen did not disappoint on stage in Canton over the weekend. The former NFL star took the stage at the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday to be officially inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Allen was a part of the class that also included Sterling Sharpe, Eric Allen, and Antonio Gates. Well, after he received his brand-new gold jacket, he wanted to turn back the clock and do his signature sack celebration. Unfortunately for Allen, suit pants don't have as much give as football pants. When Allen stood up, he realized that he had a major rip on the back of his pants, stretching from his rear all the way to near the kneecap. The 2004 fourth-round pick played for four teams in his 12-year career, most notably the Minnesota Vikings, in which he racked up four All-Pros, five Pro Bowls and 136 sacks. He twice led the NFL in sacks (2007 and 2011), and he also holds the records for most safeties in a career (four) and a season (two). Allen retired in 2015 after stints with the Chiefs, Vikings, Bears and Panthers. He lost the Super Bowl in his final season to the Denver Broncos in what wound up being Peyton Manning's final game.

Going Head to Head on YouTube to Elevate Manufacturing
For two years, Wyatt Curry has set his sights on the $100,000 prize in 'Clash of Trades,' a YouTube reality show that features aspiring machinists and welders racing the clock, and each other, to fabricate complex mechanical parts. It wasn't really about the money. 'I wanted to prove something,' said Mr. Curry, a 22-year-old community college student. 'I knew I was good at what I did, but I wanted something to show it.' 'Clash of Trades' uses sports-style competitions, big financial prizes and an addiction to reality TV to boost the appeal of the skilled trades at a time when American manufacturers consistently say one of their top challenges is finding capable workers. At a time when popular shows celebrate bakers who make cakes that look like tennis balls and fashion designers who weep at their sewing machines, the producers of 'Clash of Trades' believe that machinists and welders deserve to be celebrated too. The show is the brainchild of Adele Ratcliff, former director of the Defense Department's Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment program, who worried that the country was running dangerously low on workers who can build and maintain ships, submarines and planes. After decades of sending factories overseas — and telling Americans that their role was to design products, while other countries would build them — 'Clash of Trades' is part of a wider cultural and political shift focused on bringing manufacturing back to U.S. soil. But convincing young people to dream of being machinists and welders, and not just engineers, isn't easy. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

A Love Story Cut Short Two Weeks After ‘I Do'
On July 19, David Patrick Roach, the rock singer and founding member of Junkyard, married the woman who had become one of his greatest sources of strength. Surrounded by 20 guests, some wearing Junkyard T-shirts, others simply holding on to hope, he and Jennifer Michael said their vows in an intimate ceremony at the Chihuly Sanctuary at the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center in Omaha, where Mr. Roach was being treated for advanced metastatic cancer. 'I just want to spend my remaining years — we both do — making up for things I missed out on the last few decades,' Mr. Roach said in an interview with The New York Times on Aug. 1. 'I had a lot of unhappy relationships and turmoil.' Those things, he added, were behind him. 'Jennifer's an exceptional woman,' he said. 'We just want a peaceful, happy life together. ' On Aug. 2, hours after being interviewed, and two weeks to the day after being married, Mr. Roach died in his sleep. He was 59. 'He knew it was happening; our entire day was spent with love and togetherness,' Ms. Michael said via email on Monday. 'I fed our dogs hours early so I could just be in bed with him, just laying quietly and calm and hold hands.' In the early hours of the morning, she woke up beside him. 'I knew it had just happened. I turned to him and held him, kissed him, hugged and just held him.' Since the age of 11, Ms. Michael, now 49, had been telling people that she would marry a rock star. Her initial choice, Jon Bon Jovi, was off the market by the time she reached adulthood. But her adolescent fantasy found new life in December 2022, when a message appeared in her Facebook inbox from Mr. Roach. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
