Gigi Hadid parties in a SUPER short dress that almost flashes her panties
Gigi Hadid put on a leggy display wearing a summer minidress as she attended the launch party for her collaboration with Brazilian-brand Havaianas on Wednesday in NYC. The cute dress was so short it almost flashed her underwear. The supermodel, 30 - whose 'close bond' with boyfriend Bradley Cooper's daughter was revealed this week - flashed a cheerful smile as she arrived to Altro Paradiso where the event took place. The star donned a sleeveless, white tweed ensemble that contained a hem that stopped inches above her knees and colorful gem embellishments on the material. Hadid additionally slipped into a pair of yellow flip flops - which are a part of her new collection with Havaianas which officially drops on Thursday, May 29. The mom-of-one accessorized the look with a pair of dangly earrings as well as chunky bracelets and a beaded anklet.

Havaianas - a shoe brand based in Brazil - recently collaborated with the model on a new collection of flip flops just in time for the hot summer season. Hadid recently became the company's global ambassador and back in March she issued a statement about working closely with the brand. 'To be the Havaianas global ambassador is surreal, and a bit nostalgic,' the star expressed, per WWD. 'Growing up at the beach, I can't remember a time when I wasn't wearing this summer staple. I'm excited to be working with this team and I love that Havaianas is making a comeback.' Global marketing vice president Maria Fernanda Albuquerque also shared, 'Flip-flops are having a major moment. This summer staple has evolved from humble beginnings into being a celebrated fashion statement. 'In this context, we are very proud and excited to announce Gigi Hadid as our new global ambassador.

The Hollywood actor shares his daughter with fellow supermodel Irina Shayk - whom he dated from 2015 through 2019. Gigi is also mom to four-year-old Khai whom she welcomed with ex and former One Direction member Zayn Malik. A source told this week the Hadid and Cooper are getting closer to possibly settling down together - while also giving insight to the model's relationship with Lea. 'Gigi treats Bradley's daughter, Lea, as if she were her own. Lea sees Gigi as a mother figure in return. Irina [Shayk] fully supports their close bond,' the insider said. 'Lea has also become like a big sister to Khai, and the two girls share a strong relationship.' The insider added, 'Khai has grown up with Bradley and Lea as a regular part of her life, and she sees Bradley as a father figure - something Zayn supports as well.' They noted that their blended family is more 'unconventional' but explained 'there is nothing but love among all of them.' Earlier this month, a separate source told People, 'Gigi's family is so happy for her and they absolutely adore Bradley. 'He is such a gentleman and he blends so seamlessly into their family. Gigi and Bradley have a lot in common and his daughter, Lea, is so sweet and gentle with Khai.' Both Hadid's mom Yolanda and supermodel sister Bella also 'love Bradley but the main thing they care about is that he treats Gigi with love and respect. 'Bradley is different from any of Gigi's past relationships and they've never seen her this happy with a partner before.' Also this month to mark her 30th birthday, the beauty jumped to her main Instagram page to share snaps from her bash. In one image, Gigi could be seen sharing a sweet kiss with Bradley shortly after blowing out the candles on her chocolate cake. And while making a glamorous appearance at the Met Gala this year, the model also made rare comments about the actor. During an interview with Vogue, she opened up about her day before walking the blue carpet at the star-studded event. 'I woke up. I was with my man. We had a chill morning, some laughs, you know,' Hadid began. She added that she then went home and indulged in 'chicken fingers and fries' before getting ready for the big night. Back in March, Gigi also spoke with Vogue to reflect on her 'normal experience' of dating the Oscar winner. 'Bradley has opened me up to going to the theater more, and that's something that's so nice to bring back into my life,' she said. 'You want to give yourself a normal experience of dating and even for my friends who aren't public figures, that's hard. Where do you go? And, what? You just start talking to people?' The media personality continued, 'I think just getting to the point where knowing what you want and deserve in a relationship is essential. 'And then to find someone that is in a place in their life where they know what they want and deserve… and you both do work separately to come together and be the best partner that you can be - I just feel really lucky.'

Fans spot member of Blake Lively's inner-circle on dinner date with Taylor Swift and Dakota Johnson
Taylor Swift enjoyed a night out with her new A-list buddy Dakota Johnson in NYC on Thursday - and fans were quick to notice that a member of Blake Lively 's inner circle was also spotted with them. The Grammy winner, 35, has mainly been keeping out of the spotlight in recent months and was notably dragged into Lively's legal battle with Justin Baldoni when the singer was subpoenaed. It has since been withdrawn, but Swift was still been embroiled in an alleged fallout with the Gossip Girl alum - and explosive claims also emerged that Blake threatened to release texts from the singer. Despite Taylor reportedly being 'done' with the actress, fans were shocked to see that Lively's bodyguard was seen assisting Johnson during the dinner date with Swift in the Big Apple. The Bad Blood songstress was accompanied by her own bodyguard as the stars grabbed a bite to eat at the Italian restaurant Via Carota. has reached to Swift, Johnson and Lively's reps for comment. The bodyguard was spotted with Lively as she recently promoted her latest movie Another Simple Favor. Earlier this month, she was seen stepping out in NYC in a white dress and was guided towards the entrance of a building by her bodyguard who strolled directly behind her. He was also spotted with Blake on the set of It Ends With Us which filmed in 2023 and also throughout early 2024. Justin Baldoni both directed and also starred in the movie - which is an adaptation of Colleen Hoover's book of the same name. Johnson has also been cast in the upcoming project Verity, which is based on a 2018 novel written by Hoover. The film from Amazon MGM studios is currently in its post-production stages and additionally stars Anne Hathaway and Josh Hartnett. While enjoying a bite to eat at the hotspot, Taylor was joined by her brother Austin and Dakota also brought along her sibling Jesse. The performer was effortlessly chic wearing a black dress with colorful floral details on the fabric and also slipped into a pair of black strappy heels. Johnson put on a stylish display donning a strapless black dress as well as a dazzling necklace and black pumps. Before joining Taylor, the Fifty Shades Of Grey actress had celebrated becoming a global ambassador for Roberto Coin at a glitzy event. Dakota has previously gushed about the songstress and during an interview with Bustle last year, she expressed that she was a big fan of Swift's Lover album. 'It's such a great album, but I think all of her albums are really great. I just find her existence really radical in the sense of what it literally means. Not rad or cool, but radical, and I'm totally into it. 'She's a fabulous songwriter. She works so hard. She is really kind to the people that love her. I'm just like, do you, girl. I support.' Back in 2016, Johnson was also seen hanging out with Taylor as well as Zoe Kravitz during an outing in NYC at the time. Taylor's dinner outing on Thursday comes not long after a source exclusively told that the singer 'is done' with Lively due to feeling like she had been 'exploited.' It was also unveiled that Blake had allegedly threated to leak private text messages from Taylor unless she sided with the actress amid her legal battle with Baldoni. Earlier this month, the singer was officially subpoenaed in Lively's lawsuit when she was sent a legal notice by Baldoni's lawyer Bryan Freedman as a witness. Swift's team slammed the subpoena as they argued that she was not very involved in the drama on set of 2024 film It Ends With Us. A rep for Taylor gave a blistering response to which read: 'Taylor Swift never set foot on the set of this movie, she was not involved in any casting or creative decisions, she did not score the film... 'She never saw an edit or made any notes on the film, she did not even see It Ends With Us until weeks after its public release, and was traveling around the globe during 2023 and 2024 headlining the biggest tour in history.' The rep noted that the only involvement Taylor had in the film was the use of one of her tracks titled My Tears Ricochet which was off of her 2020 album Folklore. The statement concluded: 'Given that her involvement was licensing a song for the film, which 19 other artists also did, this document subpoena is designed to use Taylor Swift's name to draw public interest by creating tabloid clickbait instead of focusing on the facts of the case.' However, Justin's team soon withdrew the subpoena and a source exclusively told why his attorney did so by stating: 'They got exactly what they were seeking.' Swift made a big announcement on Friday - and revealed that she is now the owner of her entire music catalog. The buy-back deal has been reported to be worth 'between $600million-$1billion' - although sources claimed to MailOnline that number is 'highly inaccurate.' A separate insider informed Billboard that the Grammy winner had purchased back the rights to her music for around $360 million. Her boyfriend Travis Kelce offered subtle support for the songstress who teased the news on Instagram - and the NFL player notably liked the post. The couple - who were first romantically linked in 2023 - were recently spotted on a date night at Harry's Bar & Restaurant in West Palm Beach. A source told People that Swift whisked herself away to Florida to 'support and spend time' with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end. 'Travis was working on Friday before his dinner date with Taylor. He left early to go meet her.' Lively has also been seen hanging out with new A-list pals, and stepped out for dinner in NYC earlier this month with fellow actress Salma Hayek. Blake and Justin's ongoing lawsuit began when she sued him for sexual assault late last year in December. Baldoni responded by filing a $400 million lawsuit against Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds, and is also suing the New York Times for $250 million. The legal battle is scheduled to go to court next year in March 2026.

Broadway's New Tony Icons: How Cole Escola, Sadie Sink and Fina Strazza Define the Theater Awards Race
For the first time as a native New Yorker, I pulled off the ultimate Broadway doubleheader — a 5 p.m. performance of the uproariously surreal 'Oh, Mary!' followed by the 7 p.m. punch of 'John Proctor Is the Villain.' Beyond making me homesick for $1.50 pizza slices, Kaiser rolls and the glistening grime that only New York City can serve, the experience confirmed one thing: Broadway is back. And it's never been more competitive. As the 2025 Tony Awards approach, two genre-bending plays — 'Oh, Mary!' and 'John Proctor Is the Villain' — are setting the stage for one of the most high-stakes and history-making best play races in recent memory. More from Variety Why Bob Odenkirk Has Wanted to Do 'Glengarry Glen Ross' for Decades Where to Buy Tickets For Broadway's Biggest Tony Nominees: 'Oh, Mary,' 'Stranger Things,' 'English' and More Cole Escola, Lisa Rinna, Paul Feig and More Revealed as 'King of Drag' Guest Judges in First Trailer (EXCLUSIVE) With sold-out shows and rave reviews, 'Oh, Mary!' has cemented itself as one of the most inventive productions of the year. A surreal and hilariously unhinged imagining of Mary Todd Lincoln's pre-assassination descent, the play was written by and stars Cole Escola. Escola, who uses they/them pronouns, is nominated for lead actor in a play — and if they win, they'll become the first openly nonbinary performer in Tony history to earn the award for a role they authored themselves. It would be a rare feat. Few performers have won a Tony for a play they wrote. Among them is Harvey Fierstein, who took home actor and best play for 'Torch Song Trilogy.' Escola would also become just the third openly nonbinary Tony winner, following 2023's trailblazing wins by J. Harrison Ghee ('Some Like It Hot') and Alex Newell ('Shucked'). Should Escola make history, it would signal Broadway's embrace of self-created, envelope-pushing performance art. Just a few blocks away, 'John Proctor Is the Villain' is igniting its own cultural moment. Featuring 'Stranger Things' breakout Sadie Sink in a blistering lead role, the play reimagines 'The Crucible' through the lens of a modern-day high school classroom reckoning with trauma, power and inherited narratives. Sink's raw, magnetic performance has drawn serious Tony buzz, placing her in the thick of a heated race against frontrunner Sarah Snook, whose work in 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' has captivated critics. Also making waves is 19-year-old Fina Strazza, nominated for featured actress in a play for her nuanced performance as Beth Powell, a devout and emotionally fragile student. If Strazza wins, she would become one of the youngest Tony winners ever — joining Frankie Michaels ('Mame,' age 11) and Daisy Eagan ('The Secret Garden,' also 11). Strazza's path to the podium won't be easy. She's up against powerhouse Kara Young, who continues to make her own Tony history. Young is the first Black actress to earn three consecutive noms, having been recognized for 'Clyde's' (2022), 'Cost of Living' (2023), and her 2024 win for 'Purlie Victorious,' and now expanded to four. A repeat victory this year would put her among a small group of performers — including Laurie Metcalf, Judith Light and Gwen Verdon — to win back-to-back Tonys. The Best Play race this year showcases Broadway at its boldest: new voices, provocative themes and fearless performances. But it hasn't been without surprises. With history-making nominees like Escola, breakout stars like Sink and Strazza, this year's Tonys are more than a place to give out trophies — they're a snapshot of Broadway's new era: inclusive, unpredictable, and unapologetically bold. The Tony Awards will take place on June 8.
