10 Hair Gifts For Your Friend Who Is Addicted to Blowouts
Hi, my name is Lauren, and I am a blowout addict. I know I'm not alone. I see you girls at Drybar . . . multiple times a week. Don't be ashamed that you don't own shampoo. You don't need to. You get your hair professionally washed (isn't that scalp massage marvelous?).
OK, so maybe you're more of an at-home DIY blowout type (I can get down with that, too). You need tools. You need sprays. You need accessories to maintain, so your partner doesn't realize you're going on day four.
Here, I've rounded up hair care products I've personally tried, tested, and loved. From one blowout junkie to another, this is what you need to own (or buy for a friend!) this holiday season.
Who Plays Gellert Grindelwald in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them?
Warning: spoilers ahead!
If you can't get enough of the wizarding world, odds are you will be very pleased with Harry Potter's prequel, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Not only does it give some subtle nods to the original franchise, but it also features some familiar characters. While Albus Dumbledore is briefly mentioned in the film, it is his adversary and former friend Gellert Grindelwald who is the true villain of the story. Even though the whole film is loosely centered on the dark wizard's attacks in America, it never actually puts a face to the name - until the very end.
As Percival Graves (Colin Farrell) and Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) battle it out in the subway in one of the final scenes, the latter casts a spell to reveal Graves's true identity to the rest of the MACUSA. Plot twist: he has actually been Gellert Grindelwald in disguise this whole time. An even better twist? Johnny Depp (who has already been confirmed for the sequel) is the actor playing him! Pretty coincidental, seeing that his Sweeney Todd costar Jamie Campbell Bower portrayed the character in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1. Is your mind blown yet?
Kristen Wiig Leads the SNL Cast in a Mannequin Challenge That Will Make Your Sides Ache
Kristen Wiig is returning to Saturday Night Live as a host this week, and we're sincerely hoping she brings back some of her iconic characters (especially Gilly!). Ahead of the big show, Kristen joined the current cast for a Mannequin Challenge video that will delight and impress you - seriously, the attention to detail is pretty amazing. Not only do you have the two skeletons from that David S. Pumpkins sketch and the Kate McKinnon character that sent Ryan Gosling into hysterics, but you've also got a serious paint spill and Pete Davidson about to fall out of his chair. Is this the best Mannequin Challenge we've seen so far?
Demi Lovato Just Wore the Only Travel Outfit You Need This Holiday Season
After a gorgeous appearance at Glamour's Women of the Year Awards in New York City, Demi Lovato, who recently confirmed her relationship with Luke Rockhold, journeyed back to the West Coast in style.
The singer arrived at LAX wearing a monochrome navy travel outfit - high-waisted trousers, a silk cami, and the chicest cape coat - that certainly puts the sweats and a t-shirt vibe to shame. She even wore heels! Take a queue from Demi and wear a comfy yet stylish outfit to go from the airport to dinner with family this holiday season. See Demi's very on-trend ensemble in action, then admire even more of her 2016 style.
This Is How All Your Favorite Food Stars Make Mashed Potatoes
Mashed potatoes are one of the easiest yet most complicated dishes to make. Simple tweaks to your cooking method and ingredients can mean the difference between gluey, underwhelming mashed potatoes and creamy, lump-free, flavorful ones. This holiday season, take a cue from the experts and avoid fails in the kitchen and at the dinner table. Here's how Tyler Florence, Giada De Laurentiis, and more pros recommend making mashed potatoes.
Tyler Florence: Cooked in Cream and Butter
Tyler Florence's mashed potatoes recipe proves a brilliant point: if you're going to add cream and butter to your cooked potatoes, why not go ahead and cook them in the good stuff instead of water? After boiling potatoes in cream, butter, olive oil, garlic, and herbs like sage and thyme, Tyler strains the potatoes in a colander before adding the potato-infused cream back into the potatoes and mashing it all together. "It's the best mashed potato you'll ever taste in your entire life," he promises.
Giada De Laurentiis: With Italian Flair
It wouldn't be Thanksgiving at Giada's without an Italian spin on the menu. Giada's baked mashed potatoes call for parmesan, mozzarella, and breadcrumbs for a cheesy, decadent dish that's both creamy and crunchy thanks to a breadcrumb topping that crisps up in the oven.
Ree Drummond: With a Secret (Cheesy) Ingredient
Ree Drummond's mashed potatoes have a secret ingredient you might not have tried adding to your potatoes before: cream cheese. With two sticks of butter, eight ounces of cream cheese, and a cup of heavy cream, you can bet these mashed potatoes are so creamy, they might not even need gravy. Before serving, Ree recommends transferring the potatoes to a baking dish, topping with more butter, and baking them in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes so that they're completely warmed through and dripping with flavor.
Sunny Anderson: No Peeling Necessary
Sunny Anderson's red bliss mashed potatoes call for red potatoes instead of Yukon or russet potatoes, and the best part is you don't have to peel them. The skin from the red potatoes adds flavor and texture to the creamy mashed potatoes, which are packed with plenty of garlic and heavy cream.
Alton Brown: No Skimping on the Garlic
If you love garlic, Alton Brown's mashed potatoes recipe is the one for you. By simmering six garlic cloves in a saucepan with half and half, the garlic becomes warm and soft enough to mash directly into the cooked potatoes, infusing every bite with flavor. A handful of grated parmesan cheese rounds it all out and adds the perfect amount of saltiness and creaminess.
Ina Garten: Flavored With Sour Cream
The secret ingredient of choice in Ina Garten's mashed potatoes recipe isn't cream cheese or garlic - it's sour cream. The Barefoot Contessa's go-to method is to boil the potatoes in cold and salted water, heat milk and butter in a saucepan, run the potatoes through a food mill, and then whisk in the milk and butter mixture before adding a generous scoop (half a cup) of sour cream.
Fantastic Beasts: 5 Things You Need to Know About the Movie's Villain, Gellert Grindelwald
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is filled with new faces, but there is one character that most Harry Potter fans are familiar with: Gellert Grindelwald. Not only is he considered one of the darkest wizards of all time in the books, but his previous friendship with Dumbledore could prove for some interesting plot points in the movie's upcoming installments. If you're a diehard fan, you probably already know his history, but if you're not as familiar with the franchise, we're breaking it all down for you here.

At Google, Women Are Leaving Emotional and Empowering Post-It Notes to Each Other
"You are amazing." "Love wins." "Ok Ladies, now let's get in formation." These different quotes appeared on a handful of Post-It notes in a women's bathroom at Google's office in San Francisco, where women are choosing to support and empower each other in the wake of the election results.
The Post-It notes, which appeared on Nov. 11 and are all anonymous, vary in what they say but the message is clear: women are offering support to each other in a time when they might need it the most. Many of the women who are posting photos of the Post-It notes are writing captions about how thankful they are to work at a company where this could and is happening.
Google has yet to comment publicly about Donald Trump winning the election and what it might mean for the company. However, it's clear that internally, some women at the company are ready to champion each other.
Look ahead for some of the Post-It notes, and maybe it'll inspire you to do the same at your office.

New Video Inspires Women to Bare It All and Embrace Their "Belly Jelly"
The incredibly inspiring Movemeant Foundation has just launched a new campaign that has left us feeling empowered and proud to be jiggling! The new #bellyjelly campaign is encouraging women to take their shirts off at the gym and embrace their stomachs, because it's what's inside that is the most important: bulletproof "strength, grace and grit."
Showing that women of all shapes and sizes have belly fat is sending an important message to young girls: that you can dance, play soccer, box, and deadlift and still be a superhero with #bellyjelly. Inner strength is everything and owning your belly jelly will "start a revolution where we feel powerful in the skin we're in." Jenny Gaither, founder of the Movemeant Foundation, told POPSUGAR that she hopes the video can help "young girls feel bulletproof in their bodies."
"We're radically honest about our bodies," the campaign says on its website. "We bare our #bellyjelly to show others that it's strength, grace and grit that lies underneath. We move hard. We sweat harder. To start a revolution where we feel powerful in the skin we're in."

Marion Cotillard on Those Brad Pitt Affair Rumors: "I Don't Give Energy to This"
Marion Cotillard only has one thing to say to people who think she had an affair with Brad Pitt: it never happened. The Allied actress stopped by the Today show on Thursday morning to promote her new World War II-era drama with the actor - who is currently embroiled in a bitter divorce and custody battle with estranged wife Angelina Jolie - and shot down rumors of an illicit romance for the second time. "I never take anything personally when it doesn't concern me," she told host Matt Lauer. "So I didn't take it personally because I had nothing to do with those rumors or situation."
Marion, who posed with Brad at the film's LA premiere earlier this month, first addressed the rumors in an Instagram post in September, where she also announced that she and longtime partner Guillaume Canet are expecting their second child:
"I am not used to commenting on things like this nor taking them seriously but as this situation is spiraling and affecting people I love, I have to speak up. Firstly, many years ago, I met the man of my life, father of our son and of the baby we are expecting. He is my love, my best friend, the only one that I need. Secondly to those who have indicated that I am devastated, I am very well thank you. This crafted conversation isn't distressing. And to all the media and the haters who are quick to pass judgment, I sincerely wish you a swift recovery. Finally, I do very much wish that Angelina and Brad, both whom I deeply respect, will find peace in this very tumultuous moment. With all my love Marion."
While on Today, Marion made sure to also note that the only time she was ever even remotely romantic with Brad was while they filmed love scenes in Allied, saying, "It's always [an] awkward situation, but it's also a very fun situation because it's awkward."

We'll update that playlist as soon as more songs are available!

You Might Get Emotional the Next Time You Check Facebook
No matter what you think about Facebook, you can't deny that it's a part of your life - and probably has some memories of yours that you don't want to forget. The company is recognizing just how important that is, with the launch of "Faceversary," a new video that you'll see on the anniversary of the day you joined Facebook.
The 60-second video will look similar to the "Friends Day" videos, which means you'll see photos and moments from your time on Facebook. The video also includes the day you joined Facebook, how many years you've been on the site, and tiny buttons that have photos of your friends. Like the "Friends Day" videos, the "Faceversary" video will pop up on your News Feed, so you can watch and edit first, before posting it.
It may feel very cheesy, but it's a cute idea and a fun way to remember everything you've done on the site.

The Flama's hilarious Joanna Rants host Joanna Hausmann is a master at creating relatable roundups for the Latinx audience. But there's one episode of her viral video series we'll cherish each holiday season: her Christmas traditions rant.
In the video, Joanna takes the opportunity to sound off on all the Christmas craziness, which she still celebrates despite being Jewish because, in her own words, it's "more fun than Hanukkah" and "impossible to avoid" in Latin America. Understandable!
Press play above to watch Joanna hilariously call out everything from Santa's many different names (Chile calls him "Viejito Pascuero," nowhere near Santa Claus) to our weird obsession with baby Jesus to how we celebrate for basically three weeks.

Nick Jonas's Abs Will Take You to a Whole New Level of Heaven
Nick Jonas covers the December issue of Men's Fitness, and his ripped muscles will make you think that the holidays have come early this year. The "Levels" singer poses in a black tank top for the health magazine, revealing his rock-hard abs while seductively pulling his jeans down and showing off his "Mercy" tattoo on his forearm. The accompanying headlines also perfectly reflect what comes to mind when looking at the cover ("Amazing Sex-Tonight!" is our favorite). Of course, this isn't the first time Nick has confirmed he's the furthest thing from shy. Earlier this year, he stripped down to his underwear on an episode of Running Wild With Bear Grylls. He also told Jimmy Fallon a hilarious story about the time he accidentally got a boner at an award show. We hope his New Year's resolution is to keep sharing, because we're loving it.
New Smartphone App Can Help Detect Autism in Young Children
There are many behaviors that could be early indicators of autism, but until now, there has been no way to use technology to tell if your child is showing signs of the disorder. An app has been created by scientists at the University of Buffalo that can detect if your child has autism in less than 54 seconds.
The smartphone app tracks a child's eye movement while looking at photos of social scenes in the comfort of their own home. A study was conducted by a team of researchers and Kun Woo Cho, an undergraduate student and the principal author of the study, in which they monitored 32 children ranging from age 2 to 10. According to the study, half of the children had previously been diagnosed with autism based on DSM-5 criteria, but moving forward, they will observe an additional 300-400 children. During the study, the app had an incredible 94 percent accuracy rate.
"The study found that photos of social scenes evoke the most dramatic differences in eye movement between children with and without ASD," the study said. "The eye-tracking patterns of children with ASD looking at the photos are scattered, versus a more focused pattern of children without ASD."
With autism spectrum disorder affecting one to two people per 1,000 worldwide, there is a strong need for a detection mechanism like this app. The hope is that the app will help parents with children as young as 2 years old detect if they have autism, and they will then be able to seek better treatment earlier in life.

Whoa, This Harry Potter Theory Will Change Your Entire Perspective on Slytherins
Few people admit to liking Salazar Slytherin, but that might change with a new theory floating around.
In the Harry Potter series, Salazar Slytherin is portrayed as one of the Hogwarts founders who was extremely anti-muggleborns. But Tumblr user maglet-301 challenges that by pointing out a section in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets that states how he wanted to build Hogwarts away from anyone who might compromise the safety of it. See below.
It doesn't end there. Tumblr user datvikingtho then chimed in with a comment that explained Slytherin was most likely wary of muggleborns because Hogwarts was founded during an era of witch-hunts. The other founders were also concerned but had their own reasons as to why they wanted muggleborns. For example, as datvikingtho explains, Ravenclaw wanted to bring both purebloods and muggleborns together to share magic with more people. But Slytherin, rightfully so, was afraid to follow suit. He didn't necessarily want to risk the lives of anyone by inviting someone who might be a potential spy or something worse.
Then it gets even crazier. The same user also delves into why the Chamber of Secrets was created. He or she thinks it was formed by Slytherin to protect students in case there was an attack. The basilisk could then easily get rid of whoever was trying to hurt the students.
Read the entire theory below. The origins of these two posts date back to nine months ago, but a Reddit thread is finally helping others see this new side of Slytherin. It might actually change the way you completely think about everyone from Slytherin house.

12 Times Fashion and Politics Got Involved in 2016
Michelle Obama paid close attention to fashion throughout her time in the White House, and that was something we didn't ignore. This year, we spent plenty of time writing about and analyzing her outfits, applauding her support for new designers and her ability to stay true to her signature style.

Wondering What to Wear For Date Night? Just Take a Cue From Chrissy Teigen and John Legend
As far as everyday couples style goes, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend don't share too many similarities. While Chrissy is drawn to body-hugging dresses and sexy cuts, John is more casual, often favoring a solid t-shirt or sneakers. And it's cool the pair doesn't always match, because we love when a couple has their own individual style.
So when the two finally did step out in coordinating looks for a dinner event Tuesday night, we had to do a double take. Chrissy and John both wore all black, and to top off the twinning moment, Chrissy chose a furry top in a similar texture as John's coat. Perhaps she chose her top with John's coat in mind or they just happened to coincidentally match. In either scenario, we're just glad that moment happened.
As the two walked hand in hand, we couldn't help but also think of all their past date-night looks. After further research, we've discovered that Chrissy always wears a sexy dress or top while John favors a safe go-to piece: the coat. Though the two each have their own fashion preferences, when it comes to a romantic night out, their outfits together are always a solid 100. Keep reading to see the couple's rare twinning moment, then check out their other date-night outfits.
Strangers are Helping 1 Boy With Autism Replace His "Life-Saving" Sippy Cup
Reward for cup like this! Son has severe #autism & would rather go to A&E dehydrated than use ANY other cup - colour shape etc PLEASE SHARE http://pic.twitter.com/iglWs9IKA9

For one boy, the loss of his sippy cup wouldn't just be a sad occasion. This is a major deal that could result in hospitalization so his desperate dad is asking strangers for help.
Marc Carter's child has autism and refuses to drink from anything other than this specific Tommee Tippee cup and he has been exclusively using it for the past 12 years. This particular cup has been discontinued and it is starting to fall apart from the use so Marc took to Twitter with an emotional plea.
The dad from England explained that his son would rather end up in the hospital dehydrated than sip out of anything else. "Ben is 14 and has severe autism, he's non-verbal, and has very limited understanding," Marc wrote. "The replacements are all new and fancy, we've tried them, Ben throws them at us. The one he has doesn't have long left. In all honestly we are really worried what will happen if it falls apart completely."
@mckenna_claire @thegaryhawkins @suzi187 needs to be a good good copy or he would wrap it round my head! He's lovely really http://pic.twitter.com/Sb7HlKI3L1

Marc is asking anyone with a child to check if they have this cup in any condition and is willing to pay for it as well as postage. "Ben hasn't drunk at school since the age of 5, he doesn't drink outside of the house so we can't go anywhere," Marc wrote. "People say he will drink when he's thirsty, but two emergency trips to [the emergency room] with severe dehydration say otherwise."
Tommee Tippee let Marc know over Twitter that they have a dedicated team at their headquarters searching for any of those cups in storage and told the public that if they have the same cup at home, they will send them directly to the family free of charge. According to an update from Marc, the company was able to find one, which is amazing but not enough to last Ben for the rest of his life.
"The reality is Ben is unlikely to change, I will need these for the rest of his life. That's a lot of cups," Marc wrote. It's got to be easier to collect them now than they in 10 years, less will be around then. I don't want to appear greedy, I'm being realistic."
Marc's original tweet has gone viral with thousands sharing his message. Since it was first posted, dozens of strangers have already come up with the special blue cup and his grateful dad said that enough is on the way to hopefully last a few years.
This is the cup Ben has and needs lots more of, not different in any way, it has to be identical. Lots of pics to show what I mean :) http://pic.twitter.com/CpKSHRWKrf

Meghan Markle Has That Classic, Feminine Style Any Royal Would Love
The name Meghan Markle is about to become synonymous with Prince Harry. Kensington Palace has confirmed the pair's new relationship, though we've known about this stylish lady for a long time.

Read on to see her cool, ladylike style from all angles because you'll want to keep an eye on fashion's next It girl.
This Is What the First Latin Grammy Awards Looked Like
It's been 16 years since the first Latin Grammy Awards were celebrated in Los Angeles, and to put it lightly, Hollywood was a very different place back then. That was the year of the Latin explosion, Jennifer Lopez's "Let's Get Loud," and Shakira's superblond and curly hair. The world didn't know who the artists competing for the awards this year even were - J Balvin was 15, Prince Royce 11! - but for those of us who remember that first ceremony, the night was epic. Keep scrolling to take a look back at who was there and what they wore.
