30 Uncommon Girls' Names You'll Start to Hear More of in 2019

Naming your baby girl something unique can be tough - you want to pick a name that will help her stand apart from her friends a bit, but one that others can pronounce and spell.

The following names - which all rose a bit in popularity in 2018 - are uncommon enough that you won't hear them multiple times on your daughter's class roster, and some might even be ones you've never really heard before. Spoiler alert: they're all gorgeous.

This Is Us Star Chrissy Metz Sang Live at the ACMs With Carrie Underwood, and It Was STUNNING

It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone who watches This Is Us that star Chrissy Metz is just as talented of a singer as she is an actress. Just in case you had any doubts, though, she made her live singing debut at the Academy of Country Music awards on Sunday night, and she sounded in-freakin'-credible.

Fellow ACMs performer Carrie Underwood introduced the performance before singing alongside Metz, noting that their Diane Warren-penned song, "I'm Standing with You," is from the soundtrack of Metz's new movie, Breakthrough. Underwood noted that both the song and the film - which follows a mother's (Metz) journey to heal her drowned son through prayer - are all about "keeping the faith through odds that seem insurmountable."

After her touching intro, Metz took center stage to belt out the powerful ballad and was soon joined by not only Underwood, but some of country music's other big female stars: Maddie & Tae, Lauren Alaina, and Mickey Guyton. Watch the performance ahead, and then keep scrolling to see photos from their onstage collaboration!

ACM Awards: Keith Urban's Heartbreaking Performance of "Burden" Will Stop You in Your Tracks

Little Big Town took the stage at the Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday night to introduce Keith Urban's latest performance at the annual event, where they noted that the superstar was "stopped in his tracks" and deeply moved the first time he heard the song he was about to perform, "Burden." He wasn't even halfway through his performance before it was made abundantly clear why.

Urban's rendition of the touching song was nothing short of powerful, singing lyrics like "I could carry your burden," and "Come to me, my brother, and I will sit with you a while / Pretty soon I'll see you smile and you know you will." As usual Urban had the audience deep in their emotions, including wife Nicole Kidman, who cheered him on from the front row.

Watch a clip from the 51-year-old country star's performance ahead, and then keep scrolling to see more choice moments from Urban's big night!

Aww! Carrie Underwood Plants a Kiss on Her Husband in the Middle of Her ACMs Performance

Carrie Underwood's marriage to husband Mike Fisher seems like a fairy tale, and their behavior at the Academy of Country Music awards on Sunday night only reminded us why.

In the middle of her colorful, glitzy performance of "Southbound" at the Las Vegas-based event, Underwood took a break from singing the party hit to plant a sweet kiss on her hubby of eight years, with whom she shares two adorable kids. Although we were already loving how she took the upbeat song from a pool party outside straight into the Las Vegas venue, her unexpected kiss with the hockey player was definitely a highlight.

Watch the cute moment Underwood and Fisher shared in the audience before she hit the stage, as well as footage from Underwood's flawless set, ahead!

This Is the Worst Mistake You Can Make When Cleaning Your Apartment

Last year, I moved from a small, cramped apartment that had a windowless living area to a more spacious, bright unit that's given us way more room to breathe. However, with more space comes more items, and you know what that means: more cleaning.

I'll be honest - I typically find cleaning to be a real thorn in my side. As someone with a schedule packed with meetings and a list of rotating projects, I'd much rather spend my time being productive at work than Windex-ing my bathroom mirror. Nonetheless, I know that cleaning is (obviously) necessary and something that needs to be done, especially if you want to host family or friends over for fun things such as Sunday dinners or game nights.

And I learned that the worst thing you can do when cleaning your apartment, which might be right above "tossing all of your mess into the nearest closet or drawer to give off the illusion you are tidy," is waiting until the very last minute to clean. You may know what I'm talking about - waiting until the dishes have piled up in the sink or the dirty laundry has spilled onto the floor. Or maybe it's been so long since you last sorted out your closet that all of its contents are now strewn all over your bedroom. Whatever it may look like for you, one thing is for sure: it's incredibly overwhelming.

I first discovered this mistake when I was home alone while my boyfriend was traveling over the holidays for almost three weeks. I kept telling myself that I was going to wait until right before he returned to get the apartment back into tip-top shape so I only had to clean it once. I know, wishful thinking. The reality was that even though the apartment was not in too bad of shape, I still managed to create an even bigger mess for myself. It ended up taking me hours just to clean the kitchen, organizing the living room felt like a big workout, and on top of everything else, I had to keep running to the laundromat to put in loads of clothes. I felt exhausted, foolish, and annoyed with myself that I thought I could easily clean the whole apartment in just a couple of hours.

Yes, when I'm feeling ambitious, I still sometimes make this mistake, but I've learned that there's a much easier way to go about cleaning the apartment. The trick is to take 15 minutes or so each morning or evening to tidy up. It could be as simple as taking a few moments to wipe down the counters, sweep and vacuum the floors, or even fold the laundry. This way, the mess won't continue to mount and it will be far less overwhelming. I'm still attempting to master this, but I've found at least it's better than saving everything for the last minute!

Want the Best Deal on Airfare This Year? Here’s Exactly When to Book

Getting a great deal on airfare is easier said than done. It takes planning and usually a little bit of luck, but this year, we have some solid information to go off of. A new study from CheapAir.com said that the cheapest airline tickets are available 76 days before departure. That's a longer lead time than in years past: last year, the annual study found it was 70 days ahead, and before that, 54 days.

In addition to buying approximately two-and-a-half months ahead, travelers who want to score the best deal should also plan to fly midweek. Tuesday - followed closely by Wednesday - is the cheapest day to fly, according to the analysis of 917 million airfares in more than 8,000 markets. The worst day to fly is Sunday, followed by Friday. According to CheapAir's data, traveling on a Tuesday rather than a Sunday saves an average of $79. But the day of the week you actually buy your ticket doesn't matter.

You also need to consider the season you're traveling. If you want to get the cheapest domestic fare, travel during Fall, when the average domestic fare is $342 (and book 69 days in advance). Springtime travel is the next best deal, averaging $354 for domestic fare (book 84 days in advance), followed by Summer at $365 (book 99 days in advance), and finally Winter at $433 (you have all those Christmas travelers to thank for that!). For Winter trips, plan to book 94 days in advance.

Overall, CheapAir.com said the "prime booking window" is 20 to 115 days in advance. However, for travelers who want to get the best seat options - and of course ensure they have a ticket! - shelling out a little extra cash might be worth it. But do your best to avoid a tight time frame. Booking two weeks in advance or less will likely result in you paying an extra $135 to $220 on your ticket.

11 Signs You Have Hoarding Tendencies

There's a fine line between "having stuff" and having so much stuff, you can't utilize your home like you're supposed to - bills and magazines on your dining table preventing you from sitting down for dinner or so many clothes (some still with tags on) that you've given up on trying to put anything inside your closet.

5 Tips For Making Your Small Apartment Look Bigger

If you've been living in apartments since your college days and have not yet graduated to a house, chances are you've probably wished for more space on more than one occasion. City apartment living usually comes with minimal closet space, smaller bedrooms, and compromised open concept areas (aka lack of separate dining rooms or even living rooms). Because of this, apartments can look (and feel) much smaller than they actually are.

Thankfully, there are ways to maximize the space you do have and make it appear much more open and airy than it may actually be. POPSUGAR spoke with a few experts to learn some quick and easy home design and decor tricks you can implement to do this. From choosing the right paint color for the walls to skipping out on certain decor components, each tip will breathe new life into your home.

These Are the Top 25 Things People Look For in a Roommate, and, Yes, "Wine Drinker" Is Included

Living with someone can be tough. Not only do you need to sync your life to work well with another, but you're letting someone into your space to also make it theirs. It can be challenging to stay on the same page with someone for the long haul if you're not compatible. That's why looking for a roommate is definitely a process, and you may need to go through a few options before finding the right person to share a home with.

If you're on the hunt for your next roommate but aren't sure which qualities are most important in finding your perfect match, have no fear: there's a list for that. According to a survey from SpareRoom that involved over 6,000 roommates and roommate-seekers in the US, there were about 25 key factors that went into making a killer roommate you'll want to lock down.

Researchers found that about 99 percent of respondents want roommates who are respectful, responsible, honest, and clean or neat, and a "friendly" roommate who can still be quiet and reasonable. Additionally, smoking was a big red flag. About 74 percent of roommates said they definitely didn't want to live with a smoker.

Sharing commonalities in hobbies and decor was also big, where one in three participants said they wanted roommates to share a similar sense of style, to exercise, to like plants in the home, and to bake. There was also television viewing. One in three people wanted a potential roommate to be willing to share a Netflix subscription, so they can save money. And drinking habits were also a huge factor. Twenty-five percent of people said it's important that their roommate drinks wine, while 40 percent of respondents in their 20s wanted someone who can party and have some fun.

Here's the full ranking of the top 25 specific preferences:

  1. Respectful
  2. Responsible
  3. Honest
  4. Clean/neat
  5. Friendly
  6. Quiet
  7. Non-smoker
  8. Age
  9. Similar interests/hobbies
  10. Love for animals

11 Signs That You're Being Taken For Granted in Your Relationship

A solid relationship calls for mutual appreciation and respect. If one person is putting in all the work while the other sits back and takes without giving anything in return, it could mean serious trouble ahead. It's only natural for the partner who's feeling undervalued to gain resentment and animosity, as people want to feel appreciated and cared for when in a relationship. But there are plenty of signs that that's not the case.

Your partner can show they're taking you for granted in subtle ways, which might be hard to miss if you're very infatuated or in love with them. If that's the case, you might try to deny that these things are happening or focus only on the good in order to settle with the bad. But nobody should have to settle, ever. If you think your partner might not be reciprocating your feelings or gestures, it's time to stand up. Look to these signs if you're unsure.

Accidentally Archive an Email in Gmail? Here's How to Find It

After Gmail upgraded its look last year, accidentally archiving emails became a bit of a theme for a lot of people. And if you're one of them, you've probably asked yourself, "Where the heck did they go?!," more than once. But don't worry, those emails are still there and easy to find - all it takes is a quick change to your settings.

The first thing to note is that an archived email is simply an email with the label "Inbox" removed and no other label placed on it. If you intend to get rid of an email forever by labeling it "Trash," it will eventually be deleted for good after 30 days. The same is true for emails in the "Spam" folder.

To search for an archived, or unlabeled, email that you might not know the subject or sender of, click the gray cog in the upper right-hand corner of your Gmail home screen and select "Settings." Once there, click the Labels tabs. Near the top, under "System Labels," you'll see a label called "All Mail." The default for "All Mail" is set to "hide," so click on "show" so that you can see it in your inbox. If you also want to see it on a mobile device that you have synced, make sure the "Show in IMAP" box is checked.

Now you can navigate back to your inbox and search in the "All Mail" tab for whatever it is you're looking for. Once you find what you need, you can select the option "Move to Inbox" to un-archive the message, place it in another labeled folder, send it to "Trash" to eventually be deleted, or leave it stored in the archive for viewing at a later date.

If you know what you're looking for, perhaps by knowing the subject or sender of the archived email, it becomes much easier to find. You can just search for the email address or the key terms from the subject line in your Gmail search bar, because all archived messages remain indexed in your email account.

I Had Sex Every Day For a Week, and This Is What I Learned

My relationship with sex has slowly evolved over the past 10 or so years. Before that, I just did what someone else wanted regardless of how I felt about it, which was soul-sucking and traumatic at the very least. Now that I have asserted complete ownership over my body, what I do with it, and who I do it with, I decided to take on an experiment of having sex every day for a week. I considered trying it for a month, but conflicting and busy schedules would have made it impossible.

Having sex for a week seems like a simple activity that wouldn't require much effort, but I was surprised by what I discovered as we pushed toward the end of the week. Keep reading for a full breakdown of what I learned.

Day 1

No problems here. It was the first day, and we were ready to take on the challenge. On day one, I didn't learn much beyond the fact that sex is fun and so are sex challenges.

Day 2

Some discussion happened on the night before day two that went a little like this: "So, what time do you want to have sex tomorrow? Oh, after dinner sounds great." There was still excitement there, but it didn't feel as spontaneous as the first day. Because it wasn't. Day two taught me that it's absolutely OK to schedule sex, especially if you have busy lives. It's better to schedule sex than not have it at all.

Day 3

"So I guess we need to do this thing. You ready?" Everyone undresses anticlimactically and climbs into bed, but we spent a good amount of time cuddling, stopping, going, watching a movie that was extremely interrupted, and connecting with each other. I learned on day three that intimacy and connection can be just as or even more powerful than the actual act of sex. When we connected and slowed down, even without all the frills of the "chase," we wanted each other just as much, while stripping away all of the extra to-dos that can often accompany the rituals of sex.

Day 4

It's amazing how quickly the excitement fizzles when you start having sex because you're accepting a challenge as opposed to it feeling like a spontaneous, hot event. We got lazy this night and brought out some toys to ensure a climax with the least amount of effort on our part. We lasted around 10 minutes. Good times.

Day four taught me the value of perseverance . . . just kidding. Day four showed me that it's easy to lose some of the eroticism with your partner when you stop trying. As with any relationship, there's often a fine balance between eroticism and security. If you lean too far one way, you can lose some of the other. We decided we needed to up our game if we wanted to keep this fun rather than a chore. Sex feeling like a chore can eventually lead to resentments and damage to the relationship, not necessarily during a one-week challenge but if it's a continuous experience.

Day 5

I was shocked by how unexciting and unappealing having sex sounded by this point. I thought I loved sex! I know I love sex. I thought I loved my partner! I know I love my partner. What the heck was going on? We decided to get a little more creative here, otherwise it wasn't going to happen. I wore my laciest black panties, sent a few risque photographs throughout the day, and walked in on my partner getting settled after a long day of work wearing nothing but those little lacies. Then I climbed on their lap and told them exactly where I wanted their hands and mouth. Needless to say, day five injected a little of that spark back into something that had turned monotonous as opposed to passionate.

I learned the power of my voice on day five. As someone who struggles to assertively say what they want, this was great practice for advocating for my own wants and needs. It was surprising to my partner as well, which added some heat to the potentially lukewarm hump-day of this one-week challenge (pun intended). It's definitely a turn-on - and very helpful - when you or your partner voice exactly what you want when having sex and even when you're not.

Day 6

I left day six up to my partner. I had taken the reins the day before, and now it was their turn. Restraints and some spanking might have been involved - with consent, of course. And the growl of wanting had returned. We were approaching the end of the challenge, and there was a tiny bit of relief in that. Sex is fun. A lot of sex is fun. But there's something to be said for being a little less available. I want to be able to voice when I want to have sex with my partner, and I love when they reciprocate. But committing to a challenge like this feels like it takes away some of that power to say, "Not today" (we would absolutely say, "Not today," if we felt uncomfortable with it for any reason), which takes away some of the passion in the experience.

Day 7

Our schedules had caught up with us at this point. We both had engagements that night and wouldn't be seeing each other. As we took a drive during our lunch break together, I was surprised to see the car pulling around behind the back of a building right in the middle of the city. "What are we doing?" I asked. A hand slipped inside the front of my pants in response.

Sex can be such an empowering experience. It's been a long road of healing and recovery on my sexual journey, but I wouldn't have learned what I've learned along the way without those experiences. I've learned that my voice matters, that I can advocate for my needs, that I can say no, that I can initiate sex, and that intimacy and connection don't have to be a scary place to be.

This Couple's Love Story Had the Makings of a Romantic Comedy - See Their Fun Wedding!

Paola and Jay met while they were in the Air Force on assignment in Turkey. According to Paola, the two first connected when they sat next to each other on a bus while on their way to an event and Jay made silly jokes the entire ride. After the couple's real-life meet-cute, they had a wedding that was straight out of a charming romantic comedy. The ceremony took place at Granberry Hills in San Antonio, and was packed with their friends, family, and loved ones. Some memorable things even happened at the wedding? Paola's pregnant bridesmaid cracked a joke about "dancing the baby out" and lo and behold her water broke while dancing. Now that sounds like a coincidence straight out of a Nancy Meyers movie.

"Paola didn't skip a beat all night," said wedding photographer Jennifer Ryals. "She made us all fall in love with their first dance, got down with her best girls, made us cry with her father-daughter dance, and danced with Jay's dad to like four songs and stole the show!"

However, the highlight of the night was when Paola and Jay's two beautiful children made a lovely and heartfelt toast. According to Jennifer, there was not a dry eye in the room afterward. Paola and Jay were beaming with joy, and their photos turned out marvelously. Make sure to check them out ahead!

Yep, There's a Limit to How Many Instagram Stories You Can Post in 1 Day

Who doesn't love a good Instagram Story? Rather than posting one picture, you can literally document your entire day. Plus, you can see who's checking you out (and vice-versa, unfortunately). Like Snapchat, Instagram Stories now come complete with filters, GIFs, stickers, backgrounds, fonts, and more, and are a less permanent way of keeping your followers up to date on your daily activities.

While posting a few here and there is great, have you ever gotten annoyed or overwhelmed when someone you follow posts what seems to be 50+ in a row? And that got us thinking - is there even a limit to how many Instagram Stories you can post in one day (and with music festival season coming up, man, we hope so)? Well, one guy actually put it to the test, and now we have an answer.

Mashable writer Raymond Wong posted a slew of Stories in one day while visiting Japan, but noticed that after about three hours, they started to disappear on him. And that's when he realized there's a limit to the amount of Stories you can post. "It turns out that 100 clips is the maximum number of clips that can be posted to Instagram Stories within 24 hours," he wrote. "Post more and it deletes the ones from earlier. I literally had to manually tap on my screen and count the number of clips Instagram Stories allowed to figure this out."

Wong reached out to confirm with Instagram that his theory is correct. "Instagram has confirmed to Mashable that 100 clips (photos or videos) is indeed the maximum number of Instagram Stories that can be posted at one time," he said. While we're not sure we'd ever hit that number in just one day (OK, we definitely would if we were going to a music festival), we're at least glad to know that the limit does exist.

The Pet Sematary Reboot Includes a Startling Change to Stephen King's Original Story

Warning: BIG spoilers for both the original and new versions of Pet Sematary ahead!

After watching the trailer for the Pet Sematary reboot a few months back, we were shocked to discover that the studio decided to give away a major twist that explains both of the horror flicks' chilling taglines: "Sometimes dead is better" and "They don't come back the same."

In this new adaptation of Stephen King's 1983 novel, directors Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer decided to change a major component of the original story. This time around, the young son of the Creed family isn't the one who dies - it's his older sister.

To give you some background, the film follows Louis Creed (Jason Clarke), who moves into a sprawling rural home with his wife, Rachel (Amy Seimetz), and their two young children, 8-year-old Ellie (Jeté Laurence) and toddler Gage (twins Hugo Lavoie and Lucas Lavoie). Not long after they arrive, their neighbor Jud Crandall (John Lithgow) informs them about the eerie pet cemetery located in the woods bordering their home, which isn't your average burial place for beloved cats and dogs. Instead, when dead pets are buried on a plot of land just beyond the pet cemetery in the woods (which used to be a burial ground for the Micmac tribe), sometimes they come back, albeit in a much more aggressive, evil, zombie-like state. All of this is essentially in line with King's original story.

Here's where things diverge: the Creeds' home happens to be directly next to a busy road where trucks fly by at dangerous speeds, and Ellie is tragically hit while running out to grab the family's recently reanimated cat, Church. Gage actually does run out into the road when he sees his sister, but Louis is able to pull him back in time; the driver swerves to avoid them, resulting in his truck coming apart and hitting Ellie.

Despite Jud's warnings, a grief-stricken Louis decides to bury Ellie in the cemetery. A very creepy and very murderous version of their daughter returns, dead set on making everyone around her just as dead as she is. In the book and 1989 film adaptation, Gage is the one who dies and comes back, playing psychological games with his family members and ultimately killing multiple people. (It's not actually him, however - a spirit from the burial grounds possesses his body.)

So, what's the deal with this new twist? The film's creators sat down with EW in February to explain their big decision.

"Trust me, we were nervous about it," producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura said. "I feel this way about anything that you remake or update. If we gave you what you had before, we didn't do the subject matter much good. I'm very protective of movies too, but I want a new experience each time, and feel like filmmakers have really thought about the choice. That was one, we thought, 'All right, let's make this choice.'"

Kölsch and Widmyer also said they felt the change to Jeff Buhler's screenplay was necessary due to the physical realities of their young stars. "Much of how they shot the first [movie] was a doll," Widmyer said of the original 3-year-old Gage character. "It's creepy and it's effective. But we've now seen Child's Play and we've seen the little kid trying to kill, and it's effective when done right." He went on to note that they wanted to try something new instead.

"There was something about an 8-year-old and the psychology that she would have," he added. "She would understand what happened to her on the road. She would understand that she's dead. She would know how to not only physically kill a person, but psychologically destroy them as well. It just gave another layer to it."

Ellie indeed knows what happened to her - she tells her father as much after he brings her back, and then insinuates that it's his fault she died. She has a similar thirst for vengeance for her mother, and . . . well, we won't spoil it any further for you. Let's just say that it'll give you enough nightmares to last a lifetime.

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina: Jaz Sinclair Gets Real About "Cunning" Roz’s Surprise Romance

If there's anything we've learned since Netflix's wicked hit Chilling Adventures of Sabrina came around last year, it's to love a supernatural woman on the rise. And while fans have rapidly flocked to the streaming site's dark take on everyone's favorite blonde witch (based on the Archie comic book series of the same name), part two of the series shines a spotlight on one of the other "cunning" young women shaking things up in Greendale: Ms. Rosalind Walker.

"There are a lot of changes between Roz in the beginning and Roz at the end of part two," actor Jaz Sinclair told me recently, as we chatted about the show's second season. "She's a lot more open-minded now! Like in season one, when Sabrina asks her to do the séance with her, Roz is like 'Hell no!' But then, as time goes on, Roz gets more and more involved in the witching world. That's really cool for me because I love the magic part of it and I'm definitely trying to be as much a part of it as I can."

"I'm glad that the mortals' storyline continued to develop because I think it grounds the show."

To be fair to Roz, there aren't many people who would be gung-ho about joining their friend in a séance to ask their dead mother about the secrets surrounding her demise. There are some things that girl code just doesn't account for. But that changes when the high schooler learns a startling truth about herself: she has the gift of premonition called "the cunning." In part one of CAOS, Roz's Nana Ruth explains that their family was cursed for crossing a witch generations ago. Now the Walker women are gifted with visions of the past, present, and future. Talk about skeletons in the family closet!

But Sinclair embraces all the supernatural elements that come with her character's cunning, especially in part two. "It's crazy to me because we only shot it over nine months, but it's a lot of character growth! I think people are gonna like it. We got to do some really fun stuff in the second run and I think people are going to be surprised on so many levels."

Surprised is an understatement - although Sabrina attempts to immerse herself in the dark side of her witch-hood by leaving behind her mortal friends, we still get to see how Roz, Harvey, and Theo (formerly Susie) fare at Baxter High. As Sinclair notes, "I'm glad that the mortals' storyline continued to develop, because I think it grounds the show."

And what are some big mortal developments that occur early in part two? Big spoiler alert here - in the span of three episodes, Roz completely loses her vision and begins a blossoming relationship with Harvey Kinkle. Yes, the ex-boyfriend of Roz's best friend Sabrina, played by Ross Lynch.

"When I read the script, I was like 'Oh. Sh*t!' I was not expecting that at all," she admits, laughing. "But I like the way that they did it. I like that Roz gets the vision of it way before it starts to take off and she's like 'What the f*ck does this mean? You're my friend, why did we just kiss in my brain?' I like the way that they wrote it, because it's just really endearing and sweet. They could have easily written it like, 'Roz is after Harvey or Harvey's just looking for a rebound.' It didn't feel like either of those things, which feels good. If I'm going to get a love story, let it be a good one!"

"Because Ross and I are so close, they were like 'This sh*t's cute. We gotta write more of this!'"

Truly, they are pretty cute. The chemistry between Sinclair and Lynch practically jumps off the screen, which is why she believes they were given more than just a throwaway rebound line. "I suspect that they wrote Roz and Harvey's relationship initially not planning on it having longevity," Sinclair mused. "And then, because Ross and I are so close, they were like 'This sh*t's cute. We gotta write more of this!'"

"We'll see where it goes, because it's interesting to see them market it as a love triangle [between Harvey, Sabrina, and Nicholas Scratch], because when you watch it, it's really not like that," she added. "I think they'll keep writing them together - at least for a while. But I also think that people are going to really like watching them. Even if it does go back to Harvey and Sabrina, there's still gonna be that part of fans that is still thinking about how cute Roz and Harvey were!"

With her new bae by her side, Roz then has to deal with her sudden blindness as well. "They gave me a really good storyline this time around and it definitely took a lot of digging. The romance with Harvey didn't take as much digging, but the blindness arc involved a lot of research," Sinclair revealed. "I had to really figure out how I would handle it if I were going blind as a teenage girl. What does that feel like, or look like? I just tried to really honor the emotions of somebody who might lose their vision."

"That arc gets really intense. . . [it] gets really beautiful and painful. There's just so much cool stuff that happens with that, her visions, and all the magic. I got a lot to play with this season, which was really cool," she added. As such, fans will get to see a lot more of Roz's home life in CAOS part two, especially "Papa Walker," Greendale's minister. But if there was one more thing that Sinclair would love for Roz to have, it's definitely a house.

"All I have is a kitchen! When we're filming, everyone has a bedroom and then I have the Walker house kitchen," she points out, laughing. "I think Lisa Soper [CAOS's production designer] is actually designing a room for Roz now, which is gonna be awesome. I've never had a character have a room that I'm in for a long period of time. I really hope Roz gets a cool room!"

"I think having a show like this . . . that's mostly women, is so cool."

Honestly, same. Considering how brash and empowered the high schooler has been since her first appearance on the series - and her flawless sense of style - I can only imagine how boss her room would be. And aside from all the witchy goodies that Sinclair loves or the surprise romance that is rapidly catching fans, the actress is just grateful to be working on a show like CAOS.

"We grew up with such few examples of strong or interesting women on TV. You're either the hag, the sex object, or the mom and nothing in between. And it was never our stories - our parts were written to service the men or written too simply when we're so complex," she said. "I think having a show like this, where any table read is like 75 percent women, and it's such a bomb ass show that's mostly women, is so cool. Especially with a show full of interesting, complex women. We're all totally different. It's such an honor."

But what if she were to manifest some things for Roz (which she says she's very good at, swearing she manifested her character's cunning in part one) in the upcoming seasons? "I definitely want more love for her. More witchy stuff. And a room. That's pretty much everything I could ask for."

Shazam!'s Zachary Levi Is on a Mission to Make Superhero Movies Fun Again

Can you remember the last time you saw a big screen superhero be genuinely, truly thrilled about their powers? Other than the exuberance of Peter Parker, every other hero as of late has been busy avenging their dead parents, feeling guilty about the worldwide destruction they've caused, or trying to figure out a way to revive their dead friends. As compelling as those stories are, they aren't always fun - that's where Shazam comes in.

Like a lighting bolt of fresh air, Zachary Levi's titular hero in 2019's Shazam! is suitably "stoked" to be able to zip through the air whenever he wants, lift up a falling bus with his bare hands, and hold his own against a villain wielding seven deadly sins-worth of powers. And who wouldn't be? Well . . . a jaded adult, probably. But Levi's Billy Batson isn't an adult. (At least not all the time.) Despite the giant muscles and towering frame, Levi's version of the character is actually the adult alter-ego of a mischievous 14-year-old foster kid, played in the film by Disney Channel alum Asher Angel.

Now that he's on the cusp of being a household name - to those of you who have been depriving yourselves of the joy that comes from watching Chuck or season two of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, of course - I hopped on the phone with a very excited Levi to discuss everything from what it was like to film all those flying scenes (not fun, "particularly if you're a dude") to what he'd like to see in a potential sequel.

POPSUGAR: What's it like to play a superhero who's actually excited to be a superhero, for once? Not tortured or seeking revenge.

Zachary Levi: Basically what you're watching on the screen is just me not reigning in all of my own genuine enthusiasm for what was, and is happening in my life. I was a little kid who dreamed about being a superhero - that's happening. I was an actor who dreamed about portraying a bonafide superhero of my own, leading a big franchise and not supporting someone else - that's happening. What you see onscreen is the kid inside of me, or rather just the man-child that I am [laughs] being very stoked and trying to bring that to life as authentically as I could.

I'm super grateful that I, like you said, get to play a different type of a superhero. It's a different take on the genre. The closest other character I can think of who's similar to Billy Batson is Peter Parker. There's a youth and an excitement about the powers that they've now gotten, and wanting to use them for good. That made it a heck of a lot of fun. God knows, plenty of other incredible actors have been super stoked to get these superhero jobs and they're giddy and excited, and then the camera starts rolling and they've gotta be like [using a deep voice] "I'm Batman." It's gotta be real serious. I'm glad I didn't have to reign any of that in.

PS: There are some really funny moments throughout the film, and I loved that the humor is able to be a bit edgier than the average superhero movie. Also, how almost disturbingly dark it gets with Mark Strong's villain. Like that conference room scene?

ZL: Wasn't that gnarly?

PS: Nightmares. Did that aspect of the script appeal to you?

ZL: Oh, 100 percent. The DNA of the movie is so naturally there. It's a movie about a 14-year-old boy who's given a magic word to transform into being the superhero version of himself. It's Big meets Superman. That, inherently, is gonna have lots of heart and lots of humor. So when I found out that David Sandberg was going to be our director, I genuinely thought it was such an inspired choice by the studio. Having come from a horror background, what he was going to be able to do was help juggle and balance that lighter side that we were already going to have. It wasn't like we needed someone to punch up or extrapolate the humor or the heart in the film - that's already there in the characters. You need to have that other side that's a little darker, a little kookier, a little creepy. That helps balance the whole meal. It really takes people by surprise, which is great.

PS: You play "the full potential" version of Asher Angel's Billy, but he's still very much the troubled teen that Asher plays despite how excited he is about his powers. How involved were the two of you in the fleshing out his character and linking your performances, so to speak?

ZL: We actually had a little bit of rehearsal time before we started shooting, and David, Asher, and I would be in the room, and David and Asher would run through various scenes. I was there to observe, more than anything, and try to capture as much essence of him as I could. Really just both of us trusting David to direct both of us, since neither of us were really ever in the same place at the same time. But also, we're both trying to play Billy. It was less about me trying to be him, or him trying to be me, but both of us trying to be Billy as best we could. That was kind of more the game plan, I think.

PS: The rapport between both versions of Billy and Jack Dylan Grazer's character, Freddy, are hilarious - was there a lot of riffing going on during your scenes with him?

ZL: Oh, tons. David was very gracious in that he allowed myself, Jack, really all of us, room to riff, to ad-lib, and improv, and inhabit the characters and bring them to life. I think people definitely feel that, because there are a lot of moments that feel like we just made them up on the spot, and there were. We made them up on the spot! But you're only able to do that if you've got a scene partner who knows how to do that, and I'm so grateful that of all the 14-year-old kids that they found, they found Jack, who really . . . he and I have a similar understanding of comedy. You know, I've got a few more years . . . well, 24 more years on him. [laughs] But nonetheless he's got such an old soul and a sharp mind, and just naturally talented and funny.

"It's Big meets Superman. That, inherently, is gonna have lots of heart and lots of humor."

We had a ball doing all that stuff. David giving us the freedom to do that was such a blessing. But also, we were improving and riffing what was already a great template with the script. Henry Gayden wrote such a great script. You've got the structure and the beats, and a lot of the lines, if we did riff on them, were alts of what was already written. The heart of it, and the essence of what we were trying to accomplish, was already given to us. It was awesome.

PS: What was your experience like filming all those flying scenes?

ZL: All of the harness work was difficult. Those harnesses are just not comfortable at all, particularly if you're a dude. There was a lot of harness work, because we flew a lot. But you get through it, you grin and bear it, and then you get to go watch the finished product, and I'm fucking flying on a movie screen, so it's completely worth it, you know?

PS: On that note, I'd love to talk a little bit about the suit, because I know you're already a tall guy but it looked gigantic. Was it hard to get into that thing everyday?

ZL: On one hand it was amazing, because it was a total dream coming true with the spandex and cape and all that. So cool. And it has actual practical lighting in it; the chest really lit up, and the gauntlets really lit up, so I felt like a walking, talking, action figure. It was real fun. That said, it was insanely uncomfortable and very difficult to go to the bathroom in. It was a bit bulky. There are a lot of layers that are packed in there, you know? Obviously I've been working out like a madman and putting on quite a bit of weight, getting healthier and stronger than I've ever been in my life, and I'm super grateful for that, but you still have to have some augmentation in those suits in order for it to translate on camera at all times.

I also had to have a bunch of warm layers on underneath because we were shooting in Toronto in the middle of Winter, freezing my ass off. I mean, I was stuffed into that thing. It was so tight. Fortunately I had awesome costumers with me every day who helped me get into and out of it. It only took about 10 minutes to get into it fully, and five minutes to get out of it. To be honest, it kind of made me feel like a 4-year-old again, when your parents are putting your clothes on.

PS: I have to say I did note that moment in the big fight scene at the end when Shazam gets ripped back by his cape - it made me think of Edna Mode's "no cape" rule in The Incredibles. Are you still pro-cape, or no cape?

ZL: Pro-cape or no cape? [laughs] Well I gotta go pro-cape, right? Because my guy wears the cape. So I'm totes pro-cape.

PS: Alright, that's fair. I can accept that. So, switching gears from your cape, there are a few moments towards the end of the movie that hint at expanding the world of Shazam - the Superman cameo, the appearance of Mister Mind in the mid-credits scene. If a sequel happens, what would you ideally want to see Billy doing, or who would you want him to team up with?

ZL: What we've laid out for the end of the movie feels like a really fun direction that we can go in. Going and fighting some of the classic villains would be so delicious, and Mister Mind is one of those villains. Ultimately down the road, Shazam and Black Adam need to have their showdown. I don't know if that's the next [film] or the next one after that. But as far as team-ups, all of it is so above my pay grade, but I really hope they make me a part of the Justice League. I hope I get to team up with all of those badasses. Shazam and Superman fighting against each other, and then fighting with each other would be supercool, like we've seen in the comics before.

One of the coolest things about how they've rebooted this, the Geoff Johns New 52 comic that then made its way into our film, is the "Shazam-ily," as I like to call it. I'm so glad we were able to keep it under wraps for so long, and it's really been delighting people. It's a real, big time, wish-fulfillment moment, and there's a whole bunch of ways we can go with that stuff. I'm just stoked for all of it.

PS: Did you get a chance to bond with the cast playing the older versions of Billy's foster family at all?

ZL: Of course, yeah! I'm just really grateful now that the movie is coming out and now everyone will be able to know, and know that they're in it and be able to congratulate them on it. It's been a big secret that we've been holding on to.

Shazam! is now in theaters.
