Sydney Sweeney shocks fans by turning her bathwater into soap for latest venture
Sydney Sweeney has shocked fans with her new venture - turning her bathwater into soap. The Euphoria actress, 27, has teamed up with Dr. Squatch for the unique collaboration. The Sun reports only 5,000 bars of the soap are being sold, and those who purchase the soap will be able to get a certificate confirming it's been made with Sweeney's bathwater. 'When fans start asking for your bathwater, either ignore it or turn it into a soap,' Sweeney joked. "It's weird in the best way.' According to the company, the soap is 'the ultimate blend of outdoor serenity with refreshing notes of pine, douglas fir, earthy moss, and a touch of Sydney's Bathwater Bliss". It's not the first time Sweeney has worked with the company, as she became an ambassador for the brand last October. She starred in an advert for the company selling their body wash, and while sitting in a bubble bath she cheekily said to the camera: 'Hello you dirty little boys, are you interested in my body... wash?" In March, the actress was spotted having dinner with former co-star Glen Powell, in the wake of reports that the Hollywood star has called off her wedding to Jonathan Davino. Sweeney and Powell first worked together on the series Scream Queens, which aired for two seasons in 2015 and 2016, and then again as leads in 2023's Anyone But You, which sparked rumours about the steamy chemistry they had in the rom-com. Sweeney and her three-year fiance Davino are said to have had 'major' issues, which have led to them deciding to stop making plans for their wedding. And she set tongues wagging when she recently deleted a snap of the pair kissing on New Year's Eve from her Instagram page. The couple's relationship was reported to have 'major' issues, some of which relate to her heavy work schedule. Sweeney and Davino started dating in 2018, became engaged in 2022 and had planned to get married this May.

Keke Palmer said she didn't feel adequately paid in Hollywood until Jordan Peele's 'Nope' — two decades into her career
Keke Palmer has worked in Hollywood since she was 10 — but when asked by Business Insider when she felt adequately paid, the 31-year-old said: "' Nope,' that was probably the first time." Palmer played Emerald Haywood in Jordan Peele's 2022 horror movie, in which she and Daniel Kaluuya play siblings who try to get a photo of a murderous UFO to sell the image for money. Before "Nope," Palmer led the Nickelodeon series "True Jackson, VP," which ran from 2008 until 2011, starred in the 2015 slasher comedy " Scream Queens" created by Ryan Murphy, and voiced the mammoth Peaches in multiple " Ice Age" movies. Palmer's first prominent movie role was at the age of 12 in 2006's " Akeelah and the Bee," in which she starred opposite Queen Latifah. Palmer, who is also a singer, TV host, author, and podcaster, said that gender and racial inequalities are very real in Hollywood, but she doesn't dwell on them. "I don't compare — especially as a Black person, a Black woman — because it's not a fair thing to do to myself," Palmer continued. "I don't think that comparing oneself makes sense in any regard, because you're not at the same vantage point, beginning or otherwise, as someone else." She added that "if you are getting your needs met, that has to be at the forefront of your mind. That doesn't mean that everything is fair, but it's an important thing to think about and have a particular perspective about." Palmer encourages other actors in Hollywood to diversy their income streams Palmer said it's one of the reasons she's diversified her income streams, including owning multiple production companies, and has encouraged others to do the same. "It's essentially why I turned my brand into a holdings company with subsidiaries. You have to diversify," Palmer said. It's increasingly common for A-listers to launch multiple businesses to increase career longevity. Rihanna has Fenty Beauty and Savage X Fenty. Kim Kardashian launched Skims, and Reese Witherspoon's media company, Hello Sunshine, is among the most successful in Hollywood. In recent years, Black actors, including Octavia Spencer, Viola Davis, Mo'Nique, and Taraji P. Henson, have spoken out about not being paid fairly on account of their race and gender. In a 2023 SiriusXM interview, Henson confirmed rumors that she considered quitting Hollywood over pay inequality. "I'm just tired of working so hard, being gracious at what I do [and] getting paid a fraction of the cost," she said tearfully. "I'm tired of hearing my sisters say the same thing over and over. You get tired. I hear people go, 'You work a lot.' Well, I have to."

Gwyneth Paltrow shares 'exact moment' she knew marriage to Chris Martin was over
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin famously announced they were 'consciously uncoupling' back in 2014 after 10 years of marriage - and now the actress has shared the moment she knew it was all over Academy Award-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow and Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin made headlines in 2014 by announcing they were 'consciously uncoupling' - introducing a unique term that has since become synonymous with a very public way to reveal a relationship breakdown. Having been married for 10 years at the time, the pair have two children together, 21 year old daughter Apple, who celebrated her birthday earlier this week, and 18 year old son Moses. On the outside their marriage appeared solid until Gwyneth took to her lifestyle website Goop to share the unexpected news that she and Chris had decided to part ways, reports the Mirror. In a joint statement, the couple confessed: "It is with hearts full of sadness that we have decided to separate. We have come to the conclusion that while we love each other very much, we will remain separate. We are, however, and always will be a family, and in many ways are closer than we have ever been." Requesting the public respect their privacy during "this difficult time," they acknowledged they were "parents, first and foremost" and elaborated, thereby popularising the break up phrase: "We have always conducted our relationship privately, and we hope to do that as we consciously uncouple and co-parent, we will be able to continue in the same manner." This public declaration not only shocked fans but also redefined the way celebrities chose to announce their break-ups. Since their separation and official divorce in 2015, Gwyneth and Chris have been spotted enjoying holidays together, celebrating birthdays and Christmases as a family, and both have found new partners. Gwyneth, 51, tied the knot with film director Brad Falchuk, 53 – the creative mind behind American Horror Story, Glee and Scream Queens - in 2018. Chris, 47, has discovered romance with 34 year old Fifty Shades of Grey actress Dakota Johnson, and they even socialise with Gwyneth. In March, it was reported that Chris and Dakota had become engaged after six years of dating. Although both are content in their new relationships - and also with each other - Gwyneth has since reflected on the moment she realised her marriage was over. Recalling a seemingly perfect day with her then-husband, the actress admitted she knew deep down she wasn't happy. In a heartfelt essay for British Vogue, she penned: "It was my birthday, my 38th. My ex-husband [Chris] and I were tucked away in the Tuscan countryside, on a hill in a beautiful cottage with a view of the forest. "Fall was coming; the leaves were just loosening their grip on bright green. Inside, the cottage was perfectly appointed in the way you dream of for a birthday trip: cosy living room with a fireplace, kitchen table overflowing with spoils from the farm nearby – peaches, tomatoes on the vine, basil, eggs. I don't recall when it happened, exactly." "I don't recall the exact day of the weekend or the hour. But I was certain – despite lengthy strolls and extended lie-ins, generous pours of Barolo and hand-holding – my marriage had reached its end." Gwyneth painfully kept this grim realisation to herself. She further disclosed: "It would be years before we voiced the words", but that weekend "a dam had cracked just enough to hear the unrelenting trickle of truth". This was a truth that would amplify until it became "all I could hear". She described her relationship with Chris as one where they had "always been friends", sharing laughter, the same sense of humour and "utter silliness". Gwyneth confessed: "We were close, though we never fully settled into being a couple. We just didn't quite fit together. There was always a bit of unease and unrest. But man, did we love our children." The Shallow Hal actress shared that they both made every effort to keep the family intact before deciding to part ways, stating that the divorces she witnessed growing up were "bitter, acrimonious, unending", which she wanted to avoid "with all my heart". Contrary to initial assumptions that Gwyneth and Chris coined the term 'conscious uncoupling', it was actually suggested by their therapist. They privately practiced this approach for an entire year before publicly announcing their separation. Explaining the logic behind it, Gwyneth elaborated: "Was there a world where we could break up and not lose everything? Could we be a family, even though we were not a couple? We decided to try." Despite causing a media frenzy, she observed that "the public's surprise gave way to a strange combination of mockery and anger I had never seen". However, nowadays, instead of ridicule, people ask her how she managed to do it. Wrapping up, she reflected: "It's very different for every couple but, for me, it meant, more than anything, being accountable for my own part in the dissolution of the relationship. There existed aspects of myself I was trying to heal through this relationship that I wasn't honest with myself about. I had been blind, guarded, invulnerable, intolerant." "I needed to acknowledge that and have the courage to share it. I know that my ex-husband was destined to be the father of my children, and I am certain that my current husband is the man I will grow old with. Conscious uncoupling allows us to understand that such divergent loves can exist simultaneously and enrich each other."
