'And Just Like That' Star, 54, Debuts Stunning Hair Transformation at Premiere Event in Paris
'And Just Like That' Star, 54, Debuts Stunning Hair Transformation at Premiere Event in Paris originally appeared on Parade. Nicole Ari Parker switched it up with a sizzling hair transformation, debuting the new look while attending a recent event. For the function, held on a rooftop at France's Economic, Social and Environmental Council (CESE) in Paris, France, on Wednesday, May 28, the Soul Food star showed off an auburn bob with blunt, choppy layers, slightly darker roots, and wispy curtain bangs. Though the longtime actress often switches up her hairstyles, she more frequently opts for honey-blonde and brown hues, so the red color definitely popped and stood out from her usual. Perfectly complementing the bold vibe of her hair, the And Just Like That... actress chose an ensemble comprised of mix-matched prints as she posed for pictures directly in front of the iconic Eiffel Tower at the photo call for the MAX series, in which she plays Lisa Todd Wexley. Parker, 48, donned a black and white satin blouse with a thick waist belt paired with light pink loose-fitting Bermuda shorts and square-toe, snakeskin wedge mules. Just a week prior, the Brown Sugar actress made the New York photo call a family affair, posing alongside husband Boris Kodjoe, 52, and their two children, daughter Sophie Tei-Naaki Lee Kodjoe, 20, and son Nicolas Neruda Kodjoe, 18.

The Asian chefs who have fed U.S. presidents
Adrian Miller was hoping to find a long-lost treasure in the stacks at the University of Denver's library — but the one he discovered was unexpected. The self-described 'Soul Food Scholar,' whose books exploring African American food history have won two James Beard Awards, was searching through the library's Cookery and Foodways Collection of more than 11,000 volumes, many of which had originally been collected by Margaret Husted, whose husband had been the business editor of U.S. News & World Report. Among the items were community cookbooks and compilations of historical recipes, dating back centuries. In 2015, while looking for information about Black chefs who may have cooked in the White House, Miller simply typed 'presidential' into the database and was surprised by the book title — and author — that suddenly appeared: 'To a President's Taste: Being the Reminiscences and Recipes of Lee Ping Quan, Ex-President's Steward on the Presidential Yacht, U.S.S. Mayflower.'
