Laura Dern interview: Harvey Weinstein, MeToo and why being a nepo baby is great

With both parents in the industry and children entering it (her son is a musician, her daughter is starring alongside her in a Roger Vivier campaign) how does she feel about the nepo baby discourse? ‘I’m appalled by it, actually, because I don’t understand it. It never came up when all of us “nepo babies” were working. Myself and Jamie Lee Curtis…Your butcher is a nepo baby, your baker, the seamstress, the tailor. Lawyers and doctors who get their kids internships working at a practice so they can see if it’s what’s right for them. Isn’t it our job [to inspire our children]?’ she says. ‘I was so proud of it when I started. Because I love legacy and the history of film. I was raised around so many beautiful film-makers and actors and painters that inspired me. Gregory Peck and his wife Vero...

Michigan Dairy Worker Diagnosed With Bird Flu

New York — A Michigan dairy worker has been diagnosed with bird flu — the second human case associated with an outbreak in U.S. dairy cows.The patient had mild eye symptoms and has recovered, U.S. and Michigan health officials said in announcing the case Wednesday. The worker had been in contact with cows presumed to be infected, and the risk to the public remains low, officials said.A nasal swab from the person tested negative for the virus, but an eye swab tested positive, “indicating an eye infection,” the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a statement.The first case happened in late March, when a farmworker in Texas was diagnosed in what officials called the first known instance globally of a person catching this version of bird flu from a mammal.

Kelly Rowland at Cannes, plus 9 other deliciously diva celebrity moments

On the Cannes red carpet last night, Kelly Rowland was caught raising a very pointed forefinger to a member of the film festival staff. We can’t be sure what she said, but any woman knows what the general aura of her body language was saying. “Back the f*** up.”There is a chance that Rowland’s actions were completely warranted — some online commenters note that the Cannes staff member appears to be stepping on the back of her dress, others have pointed out the invasion of her personal space. But it got us thinking about how there has been a distinct drought in diva behaviour as of late. Self aware celebs accustomed to being perpetually filmed are too smart now, too keen to appear relatable, to pull the diva breaks. Sabrina Carpenter isn’t exactly going to kickdrop a paparazzo’s camera anyt...

What is Podophobia? Explaining What It’s Like to Fear Feet

Jordyn Bristow can’t remember how or why she became unbearably repulsed by feet. All she knows is that starting about three years ago, when she caught a glimpse of someone’s bare feet, she wanted to vomit. The urge hasn’t let up. “I start gagging—it’s horrible,” says Bristow, 18, who lives in Tasmania, Australia. She was recently at a grocery store when her dad pointed out an older man wearing flip-flops, which accentuated his cracked and apparently infected ingrown toenails. She started dry-heaving and had to leave the store and sit outside, struggling to catch her breath.Bristow has podophobia: an overwhelming fear of feet. While it’s unclear exactly how many people share this aversion, experts agree it’s rare. (It’s basically nonexistent in scientific literature.) That means it’s often ...

Why Fish Oil Supplements Can Be Dangerous for the Heart

Most people are familiar with the best things to eat for a healthy heart: vegetables, low-fat dairy, and lean proteins like fish. Some fish like salmon also have the added benefit of being full of omega-3 fatty acids, which are healthy fats that can help to raise good cholesterol and lower triglycerides.Or so we thought. Studies on the benefits of fish oil, and fish oil supplements, haven’t been as conclusive when it comes to actually preventing heart disease for people who aren’t at higher risk. In the latest, published in BMJ, researchers report that people with no history of heart problems who regularly took fish oil supplements actually increased their risk of atrial fibrillation.The study involved more than 415,000 men and women in the health-data hub UK Biobank who agreed to share th...
