The last decade was rife with memorable awards show moments, and it was tough to narrow down the most powerful speeches because there were so many that went beyond thanking the Academy and shouting out moms, husbands and kids. There are themes of feminism, LGBTQ+ empowerment, equality, justice and simply love. From tearful tributes at the Tony Awards and grand gestures at the Grammys to rousing calls to action at the Oscarsand golden moments at the Golden Globes, these are the most memorable and powerful awards show speeches of the past decade....

But her time off screen is a plus for new cast members Special Agent Fatima Namazi (Medalion Rahimi) and Special Agent Devin Rountree (Caleb Castille) because it affords them the opportunity to flex their wings a little more. “It’s such a different experience directing them versus directing somebody like Eric, or Todd [LL Cool J] or Chris [O’Donnell] who are not only more established in the show but are more seasoned actors,” Ruah told Parade....

One of our favorite events of this festive evening is the “Mutant Toy Parade” which takes place in NYC and 5 other cities. This innovative, participatory event was envisioned by the Argentina-based artist Laureano Cantarutti in which kids of all ages and their families make music with three types of circuit-bent toys. The NYC program begins at 5:30 pm in front of the NYPD 25th Precinct on E 119th Street between Lexington & Park Avenues, when NYC percussionist and bandleader Jochen Ruekert will lead a workshop to teach the participants a specially created composition using their new toy instruments....

“Confession: My wedding was over 10 years ago and I still cringe when I think about our horrible DJ. He played the wrong song for my father/daughter dance and was just really unprofessional. Does anyone truly have a picture-perfect wedding, or does everyone look back on their wedding and wish they could change one thing. I need to move on, but it still bothers me!"—Colleen, 35, Mass. Asher Fogle Paul: Colleen, I am so sorry that your DJ ruined such a meaningful moment for you....

There’s a new diet gaining notoriety, likely because it sounds a bit extreme. It’s the one meal a day (OMAD) diet, a form of intermittent fasting that’s exactly what it sounds like: You spend most of the day fasting, except for when you eat just one meal. Celebrities like Channing Tatum and Brooke Shields originally piqued the public’s interest about the trend, with #omad returning over 450,000 Instagram images, including before and after photos, and Google searches of “OMAD weight loss results” up 130 percent in the past year....

And this funnyman isn’t joking—Rudd doesn’t even have any social media (only an “official fan page” on Instagram). But, we were able to dig up some tidbits he’s dropped over the years about his life with Yaeger and their children, who are clearly the center of his very private life. “I identify myself as a parent and a husband way more than as somebody who rides around on the back of an ant,” Rudd, who is currently filming the third installment of the Marvel Ant-Man movies, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, told MarieClaireUK in 2018....

The model, 57, took to Instagram on Friday, Oct. 21 to share a topless photo of herself covered only by a copy of her book, No Filter: The Good, the Bad, and the Beautiful. “Yes, I’m baring it all,” she wrote in the caption of the vulnerable photo. “No filters.” She then took the opportunity to give her followers a little bit of insight about the forthcoming book, which contains a collection of essays about a variety of intimate and profound topics and life lessons....

Little could the real Angelica know that, one day, there’d be a female vice president…which was Goldsberry’s exact reaction when asked why it’s special to star in projects steeped in girl power. “We have a woman vice president! I find it crazy to be excited about that because it should just be,” the Tony Award winner tells Parade.com in a new interview. Since taking her final bow as Angelica on stage in 2016, Goldsberry has gone on to star in Peacock’s new comedy Girls5eva and has reportedly been cast in Disney+’s forthcoming Marvel series, She-Hulk....

A big lesson Harry has learned in life “One of the biggest lessons that I’ve ever learned in life is you’ve sometimes got to go back and to deal with really uncomfortable situations and to be able to process it in order to be able to heal. For me, therapy has equipped me to be able to take on anything. That’s why I’m here now. That’s why my wife is here now....

“This is Anne’s son Christopher and it breaks my heart to inform you that earlier tonight Anne passed away due to complications resulting from a stroke,” her author son Christopher Rice Tweeted and wrote on Rice’s Facebook page. “She left us almost nineteen years to the day my father, her husband Stan, died.

Sink spoke to Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush on TODAY about the series ending, saying, “It’s going to be awful. It’s going to be horrible. These kids, this entire cast and crew, this is like — I mean, it’s family. People say it all the time, but I genuinely mean it.” “And to think that we have to kind of say goodbye to that security and knowing that we won’t be seeing each other for another season,” she continued, “It’s scary and sad, but I think it’s exciting to move on to the next chapter....

While they probably won’t be dropping folding smartphones, like the effortlessly chic Galaxy Z Flip 4, it should be a trio of devices.

“Since a very young age, I’ve been rejected constantly. When people starting out ask me for advice, I always say to stay open-minded, because you never know,” she said. “I’ve never felt that I had both feet out, you know? I never imagined having another career, but there were definitely times when I felt like I should try something else in the industry.” It’s a good thing she didn’t: Thanks in large part to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Johansson brings in major bank, raking in $14 billion in box office bucks throughout her career—and that’s before the release of her first MCU star vehicle, Black Widow, which finally arrived on July 9....

A slew of TikTok influencers are raving about a pair of bottoms that have been dubbed “scrunch butt leggings.” These leggings—which start at $12, by the way—are tight and made of special honeycomb-style fabric. They have a seam that runs right down the middle of your tush, creating a scrunched effect around it when they’re not being worn. That, along with the fabric, helps lift and separate your butt, creating a more rounded, defined overall look than you’d get with ordinary leggings....
