"Freakier Friday" Trailer Details And Easter Eggs
'00s kids, LISTEN UP! We're all aware that Freakier Friday — the sequel to iconic 2003 masterpiece Freaky Friday — is coming out this summer. We're all sooooooo ready, and we'll all be there in theatres wearing our pop-punk clothes on August 8. Well, after months (or really, years) of waiting on the edge of our seats, we finally got our first look at the movie. Yep, the trailer just dropped, and it's two minutes and eleven seconds of glorious nostalgia. Plus, there are some fun EASTER EGGS we need to discuss. In case you're unaware, we already knew a bit about the movie. Virtually everyone from the original cast is reprising their roles — Lindsay Lohan, Jamie Lee Curtis, Mark Harmon, Chad Michael Murray, Christina Vidal Mitchell, Haley Hudson, Lucille Soong, Stephen Tobolowsky, and Rosalind Chao... ...and joining the cast are Manny Jacinto (my Canadian king, AKA Jason from The Good Place), Julia Butters, and Sophia Hammons. Manny plays Eric, Anna's (Lindsay's) soon-to-be husband; Julia plays Harper, Anna's daughter; and Sophia plays Lily, Eric's daughter. We also knew that Anna and Tess (Lindsay and Jamie) would indeed be swapping places again — but this time, with Harper and Lily respectively. So Anna switches with her daughter, and Jamie switches with her soon-to-be-step-granddaughter. (Yes, I know, it's confusing. My brain hurt a bit trying to understand what was going on.) Anyway, into the trailer itself. We start by learning it's Anna's wedding week. But her daughter Harper *really* dislikes her soon-to-be-stepsister, Lily, and the feeling is mutual. Harper calls Lily a "little demon-thing with an obnoxious accent." (Lily's accent is British, BTW.) Then, at Anna's bachelorette party, there's some kind of psychic (Vanessa Bayer) giving everyone readings. She tells Anna and Tess, "You've walked in each other's path. You learned a lesson — a lesson that may serve you again." Foreshadowingggggg. "Change the hearts you know are wrong to reach the place where you belong," the fortune teller says. We can presume this is the "prophecy" of sorts, as this line plays while Harper and Lily switch places with Anna and Tess. Here's where it gets exciting (and a bit complicated, so hang in there). Harper (as Anna) and Lily (as Tess) realize, "As teenagers, we have no power. But as adults, we can break our parents up for good." Then, the bomb drop: "All you have to do is reunite [Anna] with her first love." We then see Harper (as Anna) trying to flirt with Jake — ahem, yes, Chad Michael Murray — as part of Harper and Lily's plan to break up Anna and Eric. And it's glorious. It's beautiful. I guess I can finally reveal that my '00s kid crush on Chad is still VERY much alive. Here's where our first major Easter egg comes in. In the background of the record store where Harper (as Anna) and Jake meet, there's a Britney Spears vinyl in the background. What album is it? In the Zone. And must I remind you? In the Zone came out in 2003, the same year Freaky Friday did. I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE. In the same scene, we see Harper (as Anna) dancing, but in the trailer, we can't hear what song she's dancing to...I'm crossing my fingers that we hear Toxic in the movie, though. And here comes another detail I bet you didn't notice on a first watch. In the trailer, we see a short cameo of Elaine Hendrix, who appears to play a store clerk. Who's Elaine Hendrix, you ask? Oh, just MEREDITH BLAKE from The Parent Trap. THE QUEEN. ANOTHER '90s–'00s MOVIE ICON. Another thing. You might remember Pink Slip, the name of Anna's band with her two best friends, Maddie (Christina Vidal Mitchell) and Peg (Haley Hudson). Well, Pink Slip is alive and well, and they look INCREDIBLE. It's just a second-long shot, though, so blink and you'll miss it. We can hear a small snippet of what sounds like Take Me Away in the background of the trailer at one point, a song I've had on repeat ever since I had a purple iPod Nano. So it looks like Pink Slip will be reprising this song in the new movie. I have chills just thinking about it. And by the way, the guitar we see Anna playing? It's red, just like the guitar her character played in the original movie. The exact same shade and some attention to detail for ya. Another blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment from the trailer: the mother-daughter duo from the Chinese restaurant in the original Freaky Friday movie, Pei-Pei (Rosalind Chao) and her mom (Lucille Soong), are at Anna's bachelorette party, which is just ADORABLE. They're seen posing adorably with Tess. Good to know they've stayed in touch. Last but not least, I gotta tell you what song is playing throughout the whole trailer. They picked a good one: HOT TO GO! by Chappell Roan. Yes, I'm serious...I may have squealed when I heard it playing. Anyway, it's clear this is shaping up to be the movie of the summer, a true masterpiece that'll awaken the '00s kid inside my heart. The trailer lived up to all my wildest expectations (although I was low-key hoping for more Manny Jacinto), and I'm sure the movie will do the same. If you haven't seen the Freakier Friday trailer, you can watch it here. Then come back and tell me your thoughts on it in the comments below!

Boots' new £10 Habi vitamin range is said to rival Lemme– we have the verdict
Is Habi a UK alternative for viral US brand Lemme? We take a look... Wellness fans, let us introduce you to a new kid on the block– Habi vitamins. Boots has just dropped this own brand of a colourful, and budget-friendly supplements with a TikTok-inspired aesthetic. Designed to slot neatly into your daily self-care routine without breaking the bank, each bottle comes in at £10, which is far cry from the £30+ you'll typically shell out for sought after US brand Lemme by Kourtney Kardashian. Habi is very much wellness with a healthy sprinkle of fun. The packaging is playful, the ingredients are trendy (think ashwagandha, lion's mane and sea moss), and the flavours are very enjoyable– no holding your nose to swallow pills with them. Many think it's also very much taking a leaf out of the Lemme visual playbook, but with a Boots spin: more accessible, more British sensibility and thankfully, much less Hollywood price tag. Available now in stores and online at the range of 15 supplements (each bottle containing 60 chews) covers everything from sleep to skin to gut health. But are they any good? I tried a handful to find out. Let's talk sleep: Habi vs Lemme If you've seen the lavender-hued Lemme Sleep gummies all over social media, you'll know they're famous for their melatonin-powered promise of dreamy slumber. Habi's Sleep gummies look similar and serve a similar purpose, but they don't contain melatonin. Why? Unlike in the US, melatonin isn't an over-the-counter supplement here in the UK, so Habi has taken a different route. Instead, Habi's Bedtime gummies use lemon balm and griffonia seed extract, both traditionally used to promote relaxation and help ease you into a good night's sleep. They taste like juicy blackcurrants and feel more like a gentle nudge towards rest than a full-on knockout dose. If you're someone who wants to improve your wind-down routine without any heavy-hitters, these could be a good option. The full Habi vitamin line-up In the Zone (lion's mane), £10 These orange-flavoured gummies are packed with Lion's Mane mushroom, zinc, vitamin B12 and pantothenic acid – a combo targeted at focus, mental performance and general brainy brilliance. I've picked these up myself, and they're perfect for days when I need a little energy (or, let's be honest, have brain fog to clear). Downtime (magnesium citrate), £10 Red apple gummies that support muscle function and wellbeing. Magnesium is the unsung hero of stress relief, and this version is ideal if you're after a calming effect without the sleep angle. Hey Sunshine (vitamin D), £10 We're in the UK, so naturally we need vitamin D. These zesty lemon-flavoured chews deliver 25µg per serving for healthy bones, muscles and immune support. No chalky tablets here, just sunshine in sweet form. Vitamin D is the one supplement my mum (a former nurse) takes religiously, so I've got into a habit of doing the same, and these Habi chews are a much nicer swap from my usual pill brand. Tummy Turm (turmeric & ginger), £10 Peach-flavoured and anti-inflammatory, this duo is great for digestion and general wellness. The taste is subtle, no spicy ginger kick really, and they're a lovely, soothing option post-meal. I also picked these up as I have trouble digesting nuts and pulses, and so far nothing huge to report, but I know supplements take time to get to work. Go With The Flow (cranberry & vitamin C), £10 For urinary tract health and immune support, these berry-flavoured gummies are a gentle go-to. Think of them as your quiet little internal cheerleaders. I'll be recommending these to my friends, as we all always complain about our urinary tract woes over brunch. Apple Burst (apple cider vinegar), £10 For those of us who can't stomach actual ACV, these red apple gummies are a gift. They include vitamin C and chromium too, for an extra health kick. Bonus points go to the vegan formula, which is apparently quite hard to find in an ACV supplement. Ocean Power (sea moss), £10 Packed with minerals like iodine, potassium and magnesium, these blackcurrant chews aim to deliver the benefits of this buzzy superfood without the fishy taste. You've probably seen people on TikTok take sea moss by the gloopy spoonful, hailing its immune boosting and weight management benefits. I wasn't sold until I saw these in tasy chew form, so I'm delighted I can finally try the ingredient out. Get the Glow (beauty), £10 Hair, skin and nails? Sorted. With biotin, vitamin C and zinc, these berry gummies are ideal for anyone chasing that lit-from-within glow. A Good Hair Day (biotin), £10 A stronger focus on hair health than Get the Glow, these are for the follicularly-focused among us. Biotin-heavy, blackcurrant-flavoured and easy to pop. Zen (ashwagandha), £10 For stress support and mental clarity, these berry-flavoured gummies feature ashwagandha, iodine and pantothenic acid. I found them ideal for stressful deadlines (like writing this piece before the bank holiday weekend!). The Energiser, £10 A tropical twist for anyone who needs a pick-me-up. This one blends 11 vitamins, including B12, for energy and focus. Think morning coffee in gummy form. I, along with many others, struggle with energery levels, so it's a good all-rounder for me. Defence Mode (immunity), £10 With vitamin C and zinc, these berry-flavoured gummies are your new seasonal essential. They're nothing revolutionary, but they do the jobm and taste lovely doing it. All Set (multivitamin), £10 If you want another all-rounder to cover your bases, this is it. Immunity, bones, muscles, energy– a bit of everything, wrapped up in one berry-flavoured bite. If you're also not sure where to start on your supplement journey, this is a good one to pick up. Gut Goodness (inulin), £10 Fibre is often forgotten, but these berry chews with inulin from chicory root are brilliant for digestion and gut health. Great with your morning breakfast routine. Final thoughts? If you've been curious about the TikTok-famous gummy craze but didn't fancy the big price tag or shipping costs, Habi is a genuinely good alternative. It's fun, functional and affordable. Just don't expect a Lemme dupe when it comes to ingredients like melatonin, and you won't be disappointed. It's also worth noting that if you also get a healthy amount of certain vitamins in your diet, like vitamin C and B, you may not see much in the way of results. However, if you're deficient in anything, or for more niche ingredients like ashwagandha and apple cider vinegar, that you wouldn't really get from food, you may spot some benefits with continued use. Chew on that.
