Franzia Is Releasing Mini Wine Boxes Called - Wait For It - Little Franz

Franzia basically just released a line of the juice boxes from your youth . . . except with wine, of course. The adorably named Little Franz screw-cap boxes contain 500 mL - yes, that's over half a bottle - of Franzia's Rosé, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio/Colombard, or Crisp White wine, for $3.49 per box.

The mini boxes were included in the recently released Franz For Life campaign, which parodied the Golden Girls theme song. All of this appears to be an attempt to speak to millennial consumers and, hey, it's working! In a statement, The Wine Group Chief Marketing Officer Jeff Dubiel said, "The brand's largest demographic segment is millennials. We want to be sure we're growing with our customers at all stages of life." Check out the funny campaign, as well as the Little Franz boxes, ahead.

Boohoo Gave the Disney Princesses a Sassy 2019 Makeover in This Cozy Neon Collection

While Mulan's kick-butt attitude made her one of my personal favorite Disney princesses growing up, it looks like Minnie Mouse and a few familiar Disney royals aren't as sweet and serene as we thought they were. In collaboration with Disney, Boohoo has released an all-new collection inspired by some of Disney's coolest ladies - and it looks like they've gotten a total 2019 makeover.

A cross between cute, cozy, and totally badass (definitely not a word I thought would describe Disney), the collection ranges from snuggly pastel sleepwear with prints of Dumbo's mom to Princess Belle meme tees and an oversize Minnie Mouse sweatshirt dress. Just to add a fun pop of color, Boohoo has also included some neon pieces that definitely stand out among the rest and add a little extra glow to any outfit.

Personally, I have my eye on that Ursula t-shirt, but shop the full collection on Boohoo and check out some of the most standout pieces ahead.

130 Ways to Save Money and Still Have the Wedding of Your Dreams

Although many of us dreamed of our wedding when we were young, I'm betting that, as kids, we weren't able to process how much the big day costs. It's only after we've become adults and deal with grown-up stuff like school loans and 401(k) contributions that the true cost of a wedding really hits home. Going into debt because of a wedding isn't exactly the most romantic way to start a marriage, so read on for suggestions to help you save money on your wedding.

Recently, photos of the shop's Peanut Butter Tower milkshake have been popping up across social media, and one blogger read our minds when she said, "it is just as delicious as it looks."

The peanut butter chocolate milkshake is topped with whipped cream, pieces of Snickers, and a Krispy Kreme doughnut. It only makes sense that this shop has the most drool-worthy snacks; Vanellope von Schweetz was the Princess of Sugar Rush in Wreck-It Ralph.

Kit Harington's April Fools' Prank on Rose Leslie Backfired on Him - and Cost Him Some Money!

Kit Harington is known for pulling savage pranks on Rose Leslie (remember his cruel 2017 April Fools' joke?), but this year's April Fools' hoax definitely backfired on him - and cost him some money! Fresh off his Saturday Night Live hosting stint, the 32-year-old actor dropped by Late Night With Seth Meyers on Monday night and revealed how he pranked his wife by making her believe her favorite almond milk company was going out of business. "I'm aware this is the most first-world April Fools'," Kit admitted. "She won't drink any other almond milk, so I wrote an article about how this company who makes her favorite almond milk was going under because of Brexit. This backfired." Well, at least this time there weren't any tears involved! Find out what went wrong in the video above!

Everything We Know About Donald Glover and Rihanna's New Amazon Film, Guava Island

When Donald Glover and Rihanna posted a photo of them together months ago, the internet was instantly buzzing with rumors that they were working on a project. Turns out, the rumors were right: the duo have filmed a new movie, Guava Island, and the trailer first debuted at the Pharos Festival in New Zealand. Details about the secret movie are still scant, but here's what we know so far.

The trailer - interestingly billed as "a Childish Gambino film" - shows Glover at the center of a music-filled series of shots. He appears to play a musician who's tired of the constant pressures of the business. We know that Rihanna plays his character's girlfriend, based on the beginning of the trailer where the two flirt while he plays guitar. Other than that, most of the trailer follows Glover running through the streets of what looks like a town in some tropical location (it was filmed in Havana); there's not much info on the plot.

The only hint about the movie's socially tinged themes comes with Glover's narration: "What's wrong with me is that we live in paradise, but none of us have the time or the means to actually live here. We work hard. We deserve a day off. We're just taking what's ours."

On April 10, it was revealed that the film will premiere at Coachella on Thursday, April 11, and will continue to screen until the end of the festival. Childish Gambino headlines the festival on Friday, April 12, and the film will be free to stream on Amazon on Saturday, April 13. Amazon posted a brief teaser to celebrate on Twitter. "You're all invited to our staycation with @donaldglover and @rihanna," the caption reads. "The new #ChildishGambino film #GuavaIsland will be available on Prime Video starting Saturday 4/13 at 12:01am PST."

Though Glover, Rihanna, and costars Letitia Wright and Nonso Anozie have been tight-lipped about the film's specifics, the writer did express excitement for the film in a press release. "I'm really humbled having the opportunity to present something this timely and timeless," Glover said. "Between Rihanna and the people of Cuba, this is one of my favorite projects I've ever worked on."

We can't wait to see what musical magic Glover has created this time!

I Think Kim Kardashian Could Actually Make a Great Lawyer - May I Present My Evidence?

Kim Kardashian broke the Internet this week, but not for the usual reasons. The 38-year-old reality star and entrepreneur revealed in an interview with Vogue that she is currently studying to be a lawyer. You read that right!

Kim is planning to take her first-year law exam - which is commonly referred to as the "baby bar" - this Summer, with the goal of taking the bar exam in 2022. She's started a four-year apprenticeship with a San Francisco law firm and is working closely with the team to learn as much as she can. In her own words, "If I knew more, I could do more." Naturally, the response to Kim's new endeavor has been mixed: many admire her for continuing her education and consider the step "a fantastic use of her time and wealth," but there are also those who presume that Kim "bribed her way" into a law program, or suggest that she can't possibly become a lawyer because of her sexy public persona.

OK, so Kim doesn't have a college degree, and perhaps her outfits are a bit more revealing than most attorneys; but that didn't stop Elle Woods, now did it? Personally, I think anyone who takes the step to further their education should be commended, regardless of how many nude selfies they post - and truth be told, I actually think Kim would make a pretty decent lawyer. I'd love to present my evidence to the court. Care to consider my argument?

OK, we can't actually tell because Ron Swanson has the emotional range of a teaspoon, but just imagine the laughs you'd get out of having a Swanson pillow on your couch all the time.

Thanks to Etsy user Memeskins, Ron can convey his constant displeasure to you and all of your house guests in red, gold, and rose gold pillow form. If you're looking for a more subdued version to blend in with the rest of your decor, then the Ron Swanson Faces Pillow ($28) might be for you. For Parks and Rec fans with a strong love of whisky and breakfast food, the large-print Ron Swanson Face Pillow ($28) might be more to your liking.

As unsettling and hilarious as these pillows are, I absolutely need one in my life, and in the words of Ron Swanson, "I regret nothing. The end."

Pet Sematary: An Explanation For Every Twisted Thing That Happens in the Book

Warning: spoilers for Pet Sematary ahead!

The 2019 remake of Pet Sematary is now busy terrifying a whole new generation of Stephen King fans, but it's technically been giving people nightmares ever since the publication of King's horror novel back in 1983. The modern take on the story follows the same basic story, but it still makes a few shocking changes to its source material. If you're curious about how King's book ends rather than the new twist on the story, we're here to break things down for you. Let's get spooky, shall we?

The Set-Up

The book begins by introducing us to Louis Creed, a doctor and father of two from Chicago who gets a job opportunity to be director of the University of Maine's campus health service. He and his wife Rachel leap at the opportunity for a more easygoing life and more time to spend with their young kids, Ellie and Gage, and move the family (along with Ellie's cat, Church) to a sprawling rural home in the small town of Ludlow.

Despite the relaxing setting, the family encounters a number of troubling instances right off the bat: Ellie falls off a swing and hurts her knee and little Gage gets stung by a bee. Their neighbor, Jud Crandall, also comes by and warns them that the highway that runs past their house is frequented by tractor trailers that are constantly zooming by at dangerous speeds. (What every parent wants in a home!)

Although Jud comes off as a little quirky, he and Louis strike up a friendship (Louis lost his father as a very young boy, so there's a bit of a father figure dynamic going on). Their bond hits a snag, however, when Jud takes Louis and his kids on a walk in the woods behind their home to show them an eerie pet cemetery (spelled "pet sematary" since it was painted by kids in town) and Rachel freaks out - she argues with Louis that their kids shouldn't be exposed to death so explicitly at their age, and worries that Ellie might be traumatized by what she saw at the cemetery. Rachel lost her own sister when she was little and never recovered from the trauma, and is scared to see her daughter go through something similar.

Louis begins to experience strange supernatural phenomena after a college student, Victor, dies from horrific injuries at his hospital. He dreams of Victor's ghost leading him through the woods, where he warns Louis that he shouldn't go beyond the border of the pet cemetery, "no matter how much you feel you need to." Louis also begins sleepwalking through the woods, waking up with mud and pine needles all over his feet.

On Halloween, Jud's wife Norma suffers a heart attack, but is saved by Louis's quick treatment. To repay Louis for his actions, Jud offers to take Louis to the pet cemetery a month later when Church is run over. But rather than bury Church's body there, Jud takes him "beyond," just as Victor warned Louis about, to the "real" cemetery that was once used by a tribe of Native Americans, the Micmacs, who later fled to escape the Wendigo they claimed lived there. The corpses of whatever is buried in this specific plot of land will come back to life within a day, only they act much more aggressive, meaner, evil, or even display cannibalistic traits.

Jud hoped that Church might escape that fate, but he indeed comes back as a vicious, reeking, angry shell of his former self. (Jud Crandall, Worse Friend of All Time.) Louis wishes he never buried Church there to begin with, but that all changes when 2-year-old Gage dies after being hit by a truck on the road by their home.

The Ending

Drowning in grief, Louis decides to use the burial ground to bring his son back to life, even though Jud warns him not to. Apparently the last human being who was buried there, Timmy Baterman, came back as a malevolent monster, terrorizing the people of Ludlow. Eventually his father was forced to kill Timmy, and then himself. Jud explains that Timmy might have looked like himself, but that a "demon" had possessed his corpse ("Sometimes, dead is better). He also hints that whatever hellish power fuels the burial ground might have had a hand in orchestrating Gage's death.

Louis carries out his plan regardless, but the Gage that returns to the world of the living is demonic, aggressive, and speaks with a different voice. Despite his small size, he's also able to carry out the bloody, gruesome deaths of both Jud and Rachel. Louis finally realizes the error he's made (DUH, dude!) and injects Gage with chemicals from his medical bag, killing his son once and for all. He celebrates by . . . burning Jud's house down and BURYING HIS WIFE'S BODY IN THE EVIL CEMETERY, TOO. Come on, Louis.

Related: There's a Surprisingly Simple (but Still Creepy) Reason Why Pet Sematary Is Spelled That Way

Because Louis apparently has no brain at all, he thinks that burying his wife's corpse right away will have a different effect on things; that she might return more like herself. Making matters worse is that while all of this has been going on, the land appears to be sapping the energy from Louis, leaving him with white hair and wrinkles. A curious colleague decides to investigate by following him into the woods, but flees in terror after hearing what Louis plans to do.

The story wraps up with Louis calmly playing cards back in the house with his back to the door, as Rachel's corpse walks in and places a hand on his shoulder before saying in a scratchy, raspy voice, "Darling."

How the Ending of the 2019 Remake Compares

We won't spoil too much about how the new film ends for you here, but since it was in the movie's trailer, we will say that directors Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer decided to switch out Ellie and Gage's fates. That results in a lot more bloodshed, since 9-year-old Ellie is more physically capable of wielding a scalpel and butcher knife than her 2-year-old brother. That twist, coupled with a number of other interesting (and straight-up bleak) tweaks to King's original horror tale, makes for an ending that's far more depressing than the book - if that's even possible.

Our Eyes Are Full-On Sweating From This Emotional Dwyane Wade Tribute Video

Dwyane Wade is a three-time NBA champion, an NBA finals MVP, and an Olympic gold medalist, but his impact off the court will be remembered just as much as his scoring records. The 37-year-old baller is retiring after his 16th season in the league, and ahead of his final regular season game on Tuesday night, Budweiser released a tribute video honoring Dwyane's legacy and all the lives he's changed. Throughout this season, the Miami Heat guard has famously been swapping jerseys with players on opposing teams to commemorate his last season, but Budweiser surprised him with real-life apparel from five lives he's touched.

Those people include: Andrea Ghersi, whose brother was one of the Parkland shooting victims and was buried in Dwyane's Miami Heat jersey; a woman who Dwyane took shopping after her house burned down; a woman who Dwyane supported with a college scholarship; and a man from a poor Miami neighborhood. Dwyane's mother, Jolinda Wade, was also featured in the video, where she praised him for standing by her side when she was in jail and supporting her every step of the way in her sobriety. In 2008, Dwyane bought his mother a church called the Temple of Praise, and it changed her life forever.

"You don't even understand the lives that you changed," Jolinda said. "I am more proud of the man you have become than the basketball player. You are bigger than basketball." Jolinda and the others featured in the video are just a few of the people that Dwyane has so selflessly influenced. He's done a lot of sweating during his time in the NBA, but right now, Dwyane has our tear ducts dripping. Watch the video ahead, and see how others are reacting to this touching tribute.

The Definitive Ranking of Netflix's 20 Original Rom-Coms

We have a lot to thank Netflix for, but one of the best things the streaming service has done for us is reignite our love for the mushy, fun, feel-good quality of romantic comedies. From bringing some of our favorite meet-cute YA novels to life to introducing us to our Netflix boyfriend Noah Centineo, Netflix has been killing the rom-com game for the past few years (and April is about to deliver two more flicks to Netflix's already impressive rom-com collection).

There can be a lot to choose from, however, and not all rom-coms are created equal. To help you out, we've rounded up all of Netflix's best original rom-coms and ranked them from lamest to swooniest. Read on to see which film landed the coveted top spot!

The 1 Superstition That Continues to Make Its Way Into Every Conjuring Universe Movie

As it currently stands, there are five movies in the Conjuring universe, but three more are on the way. That's a lot of creepy sets, a lot of crucifixes, and a lot of fiddling with spiritual forces we as humans can barely grasp. As it turns out, though, there's a special superstition in place that at least seems to keep the demons and ghouls at bay. This past December, I was lucky enough to visit the Los Angeles set of the next slated film, Annabelle Comes Home, where I learned a pretty interesting fact about these movies: they always have the set blessed by an actual priest to ward off evil spirits.

During my visit, I was shepherded through the day by the production's charming unit publicist, James Ferrera. He's the one who told me about the fun fact. As it turns out, they didn't think to bless the set of the first film in the series, The Conjuring. But ever since, it's become tradition. "We've done a set blessing on all of the films beginning with The Conjuring 2," Ferrera told me. "On The Conjuring 2, we had an exorcist that was recommended to us by Lorraine [Warren] - a friend of hers who's sanctioned by the church to exorcise buildings but not people. Apparently there are different levels of sanctions for exorcisms."

While he couldn't remember who had blessed the Annabelle set, he was able to piece it together from there. "On Annabelle: Creation, we had a local priest from St. Monica's parish in Santa Monica do it."

That brings us to the most recently released film: The Nun. "On The Nun, it was the only one we didn't do a set blessing with a Catholic priest, because we were in Romania and it's 95 percent Eastern Orthodox. So, we had an Eastern Orthodox priest do the blessing at a castle in Transylvania," Ferrera recalled, then told me they'd had a local Catholic priest for the set of Annabelle Comes Home. As the franchise continues, the practice has become something that's equal parts tradition and superstition. "It worked out on The Conjuring 2," Ferrera said with a shrug. "We had very few reports of things happening, so we just kept up that tradition ever since."

With my curiosity piqued, I sprinkled in questions about the set blessings during my interviews throughout the day. The spookiest part? It seems they didn't bless the set of Annabelle Comes Home at the start of production, because a couple members of the cast recounted creepy on-set experiences that happened before the set was eventually blessed. Here's hoping things stayed quiet after the fact.

You may think this whole "set blessing" thing sounds kind of silly, but I'll leave you with this: some of Hollywood's most iconic (and demonic) horror movies were plagued with unsettling setbacks during production. Take The Omen, which is considered one of the most haunted films productions in history. Then there's the set of Poltergeist, which befell great misfortune after the crew used real human skeletons to film one scene. And with a demonic doll in the mix - there's a real Annabelle doll, people - I bet that set blessing is sounding real good right about now.

Stranger Things: Here's Why You Recognize Hawkins's Terrifying Journalist

Extra, extra! There's a new journalist at The Hawkins Post who's about to stir up trouble on Stranger Things. Fortifying its rock-solid main cast with new characters, the Netflix series' third season will introduce us to sketchy reporter Bruce, an up-to-no-good newsie with questionable morals and a twisted comedic sensibility. If the baddie in the latest season three trailer looks familiar to you, that's because you've probably seen him before. Bruce is played by none other than Jake Busey, who's been terrifying us for years with his wild-card characters on TV and in films. And yes, if you recognize that last name, he is indeed Gary Busey's son.

The 47-year-old actor is known for his part as evil serial killer Johnny Bartlett in the 1996 film The Frighteners (below). According to Busey, the Duffer Brothers loved him in that movie so much that they created the character Bruce just for him. Bruce is an "archetypal character" whose sense of humor is based on the bosses in the movie 9 to 5.

Johnny Bartlett isn't Busey's only off-the-rails role. He's appeared in plenty of cult classics over the years: Starship Troopers (1997), Home Fries (1998), and Tomcats (2001), among others. One of the actor's biggest TV parts was on From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series, in which he starred as Professor Aiden "Sex Machine" Tanner, a salacious vampire. On Freakish, he had a recurring role as Earl, a ruthless survivalist who takes advantage of the woman that he saves in a disaster. This year, Busey also guest-starred on NCIS as a shady conspiracy theory podcast host. Suffice to say, there's a thread of madness in many of the characters who he portrays.

When he's not on screen, Busey is also a musician. He's played drums for the band Sons of the Lawless, which released the album Sweet Ride in 2010. In his personal life, he's also a new father to daughter Autumn with his partner, April Hutchinson. Currently, you can find updates about him on his active Instagram and Twitter accounts. Right now, it just so happens that he's promoting Dead Ant, a campy horror movie that he worked on with Stranger Things alumnus Sean Astin!

Given Busey's terrifying past roles and his comments about the character, we're in for a ride with Bruce. How will he wreak havoc on the Hawkins community? You'll have to watch season three to get the full scoop!

Barack Obama Pens a Touching Tribute to Nipsey Hussle and His "Legacy Worthy of Celebration"

Barack Obama reached out to Nipsey Hussle's family and friends by writing a touching letter for his Celebration of Life memorial service on Thursday. The ceremony was held at LA's Staples Center, and digital media strategist Karen Civil had the honor of reading the letter at the beginning of the event. "While most folks look at the Crenshaw neighborhood where he grew up and see only gangs, bullets, and despair, Nipsey saw potential," Barack wrote. "He saw hope. He saw a community that, even through its flaws, taught him to always keep going. His choice to invest in that community rather than ignore it is a legacy worthy of celebration."

Thousands of people gathered at the Grammy-nominated rapper's memorial service, including Beyoncé, JAY-Z, Stevie Wonder, Snoop Dogg, Meek Mill, and Usher. There were several performances at the event, including Marsha Ambrosius's "Fly Like a Bird" by Mariah Carey.

Nipsey's girlfriend, Lauren London, also gave an emotional speech and brought her children onstage, including their 2-year-old Kross. Nipsey was fatally shot outside of his clothing store, Marathon Clothing, on March 31 in the Crenshaw neighborhood of LA, where he grew up and was known for working to uplift the community. He was 33 years old.

The 10 Scariest Stephen King Movies Ever, Ranked

Stephen King's status as the master of horror is well-earned. With 88 books and counting to his name, the author's ability to tap into the human psyche and find what scares us the most has become uncanny. And Hollywood took notice a long time ago. Not including sequels, more than 40 films based on King's work have been made since 1976's Carrie. On April 5, yet another potentially terrifying adaptation will be added to the list when the Pet Sematary remake hits theaters. Only time will tell if the 2019 film will join the list of King's scariest movie adaptations, but before we head to the theater to find out, let's look back on the 10 most chilling film adaptations of the author's work to date.

Ranked from scary to sleep with the lights on levels of fear, these movies all had theatrical releases (that means Salem's Lot fans are out of luck), and they all showcase exactly why King will always be the true master of horror in the realms of literature and film.

The Game of Thrones Season 8 Soundtrack Isn't Even Out Yet, but It's Already My Favorite Album

The Game of Thrones score, composed by musical genius Ramin Djawadi, has iconic songs like the show's pounding main theme and the haunting season six finale score, "Light of the Seven." Now the HBO series is getting a whole new set of songs to celebrate the imminent arrival of season eight from artists like SZA, Ellie Goulding, Maren Morris, The Weeknd, and more.

Columbia Records and HBO announced in early April that an album, For The Throne, is on the way. It will include a ton of brand new tracks inspired by the fantasy series, marking the first time HBO has partnered with a major label to curate a soundtrack. We can only pray that a sampling of Daenerys screaming "Dracarys" makes it on to at least one of the songs. (Or, at the very least, we get a Shame Nun Remix of some sort.)

After: I Read the Book So You Don't Have to - Here's What Happens

The movie After, based on the book by the same name by Anna Todd, finally lands in theaters on Friday, April 12, but if you want to know exactly what you're getting into before you catch the film, we're here to tell you all the spoilery details from the book. Suffice it to say, if you don't want to know what happens in the story, stop reading right now.

After was originally published on Wattpad, a site for amateur writers to self-publish whatever they like. Todd started posting chapters of After in 2013 as a One Direction fan fiction. The character you know now as Hardin Scott was originally Harry Styles. In the book version of After, Zed is Zayn Malik, Landon is Liam Payne, Nate is Niall Horan, and Logan is Louis Tomlinson. The main character, Tessa, is an 18-year-old girl who lives a sheltered life in Washington state, about to embark on a whole new life at college and hopes to get out from under her controlling mother's thumb.

She arrives at school only to find out her roommate, Steph, is "punk" with questionable friends. Tessa's boyfriend, Noah, who is a year younger than her and still in high school, along with her mom, are skeptical to leave her in that situation but eventually go home and trust Tessa to remain the good girl that she has always been.

That's when she meets Hardin Scott.

Hardin is your typical bad boy. He is covered in tattoos, has several piercings, is a ladies' man, and has a very foul mouth. So naturally Tessa has the hots for him. And Hardin, realizing that Tessa is pure and sweet and a bit of a challenge, decides to go after her.

This is just one of the many times Hardin and Tessa get into a fight where Hardin's excuse is that he's just an asshole and Tessa forgives him because she loves him.

The two find themselves together time after time, because Hardin is good friends with Steph. Before we know it, Hardin and Tessa have gone farther sexually than she ever had with Noah, who she'd been dating for years and was waiting to sleep with until they were married. Hardin traps Tessa into telling Noah that they've been seeing each other behind his back, and naturally the two break up. This is just one of the many times Hardin and Tessa get into a fight where Hardin's excuse is that he's just an asshole and Tessa forgives him because she loves him.

Despite Tessa's mom showing up at her dorm and telling her that she needs to get her act together and get back with Noah, Tessa insists she loves Hardin and will stay with him. Before we know it, Tessa and Hardin have somehow found themselves "in love" with each other (I put that in quotes because the way they treat each other seems like anything but love), and get an apartment together.

Throughout their whole rendezvous, which at this point has only been a couple months, the two have done nothing but fight and make up, and Hardin has been mostly nasty to Tessa and told her she has to stay away from basically everyone in her life. This includes Noah, who just wants to be Tessa's friend, Landon, whom Tessa befriended in her classes, Zed, who made a move on Tessa one of the times she was mad at Hardin, and Hardin's sketchy other friends. Controlling much?

Toward the end of the book, it starts to seem like maybe Hardin can be something more than an ass, but, nope, we thought wrong. Tessa suspects Hardin is hiding something and comes to find out that he made a bet with his friends months ago that he could take Tessa's virginity - which he did. He and his friends have been keeping the secret all along and Hardin claimed he planned to tell her after they moved in together, thinking she'd be OK with it because he proved to her he truly loved her. At least that's what I'm assuming he thought, because what the actual f*ck?

The story ends with Tessa storming away from Hardin and Zed swooping in to save the day and drive her home, where she asks him to tell her everything he knows about the bet.

I haven't yet read the rest of the series (there are three more books), but I vaguely know where the story goes from here. However, this is where I'm imagining the movie will end. Gotta love a cliffhanger!

Regina Hall on Being a "Boss B" in Little: "It's Important That She Believed in Herself"

There have been many horrible bosses in movies that have shaken us to our very cores (looking at you Priestly), but it's safe to say that Little's Jordan Sanders takes the cake. Played to perfection by Regina Hall, Jordan starts her day terrorizing everyone, from her next door neighbor to local baristas and her own long-suffering assistant, April (Issa Rae). In a very The Devil Wears Prada-esque moment, April actually tries to warn her colleagues that Jordan is on her way, but there's no hiding from the boss when she wants to find you. And Jordan's anger is like a heat missile, constantly aimed at her terrified employees.

Her reign of terror is abruptly cut short when she meets the business end of a wand and wakes up in the body of her 13-year-old self (played by executive producer Marsai Martin, age 14). A modern reversal of the classic 1988 comedy Big, the film follows a similar formula with twists and turns unique to Martin's vision. Young Jordan has to deal with everyone treating her like a child again and the struggles that come along with adolescence - relentless bullies. Even though she's been on the other side of the bullying for the last several years, it's still hurtful when it's at her expense, and the experience takes her on a journey of discovery and self-acceptance.

For Hall, the role of Jordan joins a long list of comedic characters that are outrageously funny. When I hopped on the phone with the Girls Trip actress, she admitted that fans still throw out quotes from Scary Movie's Brenda when they see her, and I have a feeling that she'll be hearing Jordan's vicious - but hilarious - insults soon enough. Keep reading for more on Hall's role in Little, what it was like hanging out with Issa Rae, and what her favorite part of playing the "Boss B" character is.

POPSUGAR: I really enjoyed the movie, and it's kind of like this generation's funnier, more modern and feminine take on Big. Were you a fan of that movie and why do you think fans of Big will appreciate Little?

Regina Hall: Well, I'm a huge Tom Hanks fan. I mean, Big was great and I just think Tom Hanks was so brilliant in that movie comedically. I think everyone will take something different from the movie and, hopefully, they will enjoy it. I hope people will go see the movie and they'll laugh and have a good time. [Little] is about that fantasy, if you could go back for a few minutes or a few days, and that was the funniest thing to me and what was funny about its characters.

PS: If you could go back in time to any age, what age would you go back to?

RH: Maybe 15, when I first had a job and when I had all my friends! That was fun.

PS: An iconic time, adolescence. Was there any scene in particular that was hard to get through without breaking? Because it was hard to not laugh out loud just watching you guys.

"I think it's really important that she believed in herself, and I love that."

RH: Well, it was hard to get through the speech with all the employees and not laugh, you know? I was yelling at everyone and pushing them into walls and knocking on their heads. That was kind of hard to do without laughing. [laughs]

PS: Speaking of, Jordan is super tough, which is understandable considering she's a woman in a male-dominated industry. Did you pull from any other iconic mean bosses for your performance, whether in movies or in real life?

RH: You know what I honestly think? I think we're always pulling, because I feel like I'm always watching people and listening to stories and hearing things. But for this one, I thought of what would be my worst nightmare in a boss and tried to create that, but still make her likable. Because you do have root for her the whole movie, but you've also got to understand why she had the need to go "little."

PS: Of course. Was there something about Jordan that you identified the most with? What do you think is important for viewers to understand about her character?

RH: I loved that she didn't take no for an answer and had so much tenacity and fortitude, even when she got her first no. Ultimately, I think it's really important that she believed in herself, and I love that. Being an actress, you get a million nos before you get a yes and you kind of have to always move forward, even when someone doesn't think you're right or doesn't think you're good enough or pretty enough or tall enough, whatever it may be. So I appreciated seeing Jordan in her world where she's always having to prove herself. And I kind of love that she had learned to navigate that world, especially since we don't see a lot of women in the tech industry. I love that she loves science. I loved that she continued to embrace that part of her.

PS: That was actually one of my favorite aspects of the movie, Jordan being in the tech industry and coming up with really innovative ideas like the personal assistant, Home Girl. Were you involved in any of the tech ideas or evolution of her character?

RH: Home Girl was already in the script, but I loved the idea of Home Girl. I loved the physical aspects of Home Girl's device and what it looked like. And thank you to Tracee Ellis Ross who did the voice for Home Girl! But yeah, I loved that idea and I loved the name. I loved that it was called Home Girl, which is like your virtual reality friend. For me, all those things mattered and I wish I had pitched it, I wish I was a tech-savvy girl! But I think showing Jordan in that world and being a pioneer in that world is just such an important symbol. I totally supported that.

PS: Oh, absolutely! And what is a great piece of advice you've been given that you would pass on to women like Jordan, or women trying to make their own dreams come true?

"It's nice to get validation, just remember it's your work that's most important."

RH: I think I remember, well this one's for acting, but I guess it'll be the same thing. I remember my publisher said - and I can't remember it exactly - but basically it was, "Don't let your press proceed your work." Meaning, make sure you do your work before you look for accolades and press. Sometimes it's nice to get validation, just remember it's your work that's always going to be most important. I wish I could think of the exact quote, and I'm sure I will as soon as I hang up, but I just remember it was very sound advice for me to not focus on that portion of entertainment. And it always made me think to perfect my craft.

PS: That is incredibly sound advice. I wanted to ask about your dynamic with Issa Rae, because your chemistry with her is palpable and it seemed like you guys really had a great time on set. How was it like working with her?

RH: We just had fun, you know what I mean? Issa and I knew each other for a year before this movie and off screen we wanted to work together and tried to create some other things. On set, we'd give each other lines like, "Ooh, this might be fun to try" and "Maybe say this or try that." I first saw her in Awkward Black Girl, and her just going from that and then onto Insecure, I think she's living advice for the next generation and I have such tremendous respect for what she does. We have fun together and we had a lot of fun working together for Little.

PS: And what was your favorite scene to shoot?

RH: You know what was really fun to shoot? The driving scene. I kind of like the idea that Jordan just almost caused an accident and weaved into traffic. It was interesting because we did a portion of it in front of a green screen and a portion of it live, so it was oddly fun.

PS: Oh, I thought you were just really whipping through the streets like that.

RH: No, no, there were stunt folks doing that and it was kind of fun. I wish I could whip through the streets like that!

Little is now in theaters.

Princess Beatrice Has Some Friends You'll Definitely Recognize

While her younger sister Princess Eugenie made headlines with the second royal wedding of 2018, Princess Beatrice of York has been somewhat out of the spotlight recently. The 30-year-old princess, who is the elder daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York, may not be a working royal, but she's definitely a royal star. Princess Beatrice counts some pretty big names among her friends, from designers to musicians and more, and she reportedly runs with a pretty elite crowd on the regular. Ahead, check out some of the most recognizable members of the princess' squad and find out more about how they met.

Khalid’s Soothing Vocals Will Take You on a Euphonious Journey of Ups and Downs

The new generation of up-and-coming music artists is full of notable young talents, and one at the forefront is 21-year-old contemporary R&B singer Khalid. After the release of his 2017 debut studio album American Teen, Khalid's sweet and wistful vocals began taking over the airwaves and streaming services. Since then, it feels as if the El Paso, TX, crooner has been catapulted into the spotlight, and he keeps delivering top-notch jams.

In 2018, he won a Billboard Music Award for top new artist, an American Music Award for favorite male artist, and two Teen Choice Awards for choice R&B/hip-hop song and breakout star, among other honors. Already this year, he received five Grammy nominations and shows no signs of slowing down as he recently released his follow-up album, Free Spirit - only five months after dropping his EP Sun City - and is set to perform at the Billboard Music Awards for the second year in a row.

As a passionate music enthusiast, I'm usually able to remember when, where, and how I discover a new artist that I end up loving. Unfortunately, that's not the case with Khalid. I just remember hearing "Location" being played everywhere shortly after its release. I vibed with it, but I hadn't really listened to any of his other songs.

Fast forward to about eight months after American Teen dropped, and I suddenly found myself listening to the entire thing over and over again. Why? Well, I won't get into too many details, but I'll say it had something to do with a little thing called catching feelings (*shudders*). Things didn't work out in my favor, and I fell into a funk. So I did what I always do whenever I'm dealing with something: I played music nonstop. One tune led to another, and soon enough I was solely listening to American Teen.

That album helped me get through a pretty rough time (and multiple crying sessions). It was truly astonishing how it felt like he understood everything I was going through. If I didn't know any better, I'd think "Another Sad Love Song" and "Saved" were somehow written just for me. Before I knew it, I had healed, and his song "Angels" - which has a message of hope - became my go-to jam as I was finally brought out of my despondency.

Not only is that the power of music, but it's the power of an artist who is able to connect with listeners. No doubt, that's a skill set Khalid seems to naturally have. Ahead, check out some of his best songs to date!

Should You Remove Dip Powder Nails at Home? The Answer Might Surprise You

If you're a beauty enthusiast, you know there are a few cardinal rules. Don't wear mascara with your eyelash extensions; don't wax after a spray tan; and absolutely never peel off your gel manicure. When sporting a supershiny gel set, it is always advised to go and see your nail tech for proper removal. But not all manicures are created equal. When it comes to dip manicures, the rules are slightly different.

You don't need to wait to visit the salon when your nail are in need of removal, because with dip manicures, you can actually remove them at home. Risé Carter, director of education at LeChat Nails, gave POPSUGAR all the details of what to do and what not to do when it comes to removing dip manicure nails.

Carter explained that a dip manicure is "the easiest to remove because it uses a cyanoacrylate: a simple nail glue that is more sensitive to solvents," meaning that dip removes easier than traditional gel manicures. Of course, as with all at-home beauty experiences, there is a possibility of adverse reactions, but Carter said the worst thing a DIY dip manicure could do is cause drying of the skin around the nails (that's nothing a good cuticle oil or hand lotion can't fix).

How do you actually remove dip manicures? First, buff the shine of the nail surface, Carter explained, then reach for 100 percent pure acetone (you can buy this from most beauty supply stores). Loosen the cap, and place the bottle of acetone into a glass bowl of warm water for approximately 10 minutes. This will warm the acetone and make the process quicker. Afterward, empty the water out, and pour the acetone into the bowl. Carter said there are two options for removal: you can either soak the nails and place a dry towel over the hand and bowl, or use a saturated cotton pad on the nail and wrap your fingers in a small piece of foil.

Then kick back and relax, leaving the acetone to work its magic on the nails for 10 to 15 minutes. (Carter advises you don't keep looking to check it, just leave it be.) Finally, gently lift the dip powder off, wash your hands, and hydrate with lotion and oil. If the dip powder hasn't quite lifted, place back into the acetone for a further 10 minutes.

Behold, Every Step in Vanessa Hudgens’s 10-Part Skincare Routine

Getting skin like Vanessa Hudgens's takes work, but the actress doesn't see it that way. She told POPSUGAR that her skincare routine spans 10 parts and is as follows: cleanse, steam, toner, serum, moisturizer, eye cream, face mask (sometimes), light therapy, NuFace ($325), and a high-frequency machine. Excuse us, as we catch our breath.

She explained that she has a system for both the morning and evening, and that it's the part of her beauty routine that has changed the most over the years. "I went from barely doing anything to having a 10-step process that I won't go on without," she said.

The reason for the expansive routine isn't just for the sake of a glowy, smooth complexion. "Setting aside the time for a self-care regimen feels like an act of self-love."

When it comes to other acts of self-care, she loves painting her nails and taking the time to indulge in a moisturizing hair mask. "It is a nice meditative thing to do at home," Hudgens said. She just launched a nine-piece collection with SinfulColors (she's an ambassador for the brand) of metallics and iridescent shades called Cosmic Dreams. As for her hair mask, she likes to pamper herself with one by Kerastase. See what Hudgens uses in her beauty routine, ahead.

This Brand's Selling a Makeup Palette Shaped Like a Burger, and Uh, I'll Take Fries With That

Glamlite Cosmetics is proving once again that you don't have to just eat your favorite comfort foods, you can wear them, too. The cosmetics brand and mastermind behind last year's wildly popular Pizza Palette is back with an all-new eye shadow palette that's modeled after a cheeseburger with all the fixings.

The Burger Palette, as it's called, was inspired by founder Gisselle Hernandez's love of cheeseburgers. Like its pizza-themed predecessor, it features 16 matte and metallic shades that are all named after burger toppings and sides, of course. From Blue Cheese, a metallic silver, to Onion Rings, a burnt orange, the palette pretty much has any color you need to make your next look catch as many eyes as possible.

The palette is currently available for pre-order on Glamlite's official website, where it retails for $40. Read ahead to shop and take a look at a few fun product images.

This Spring, Celebrities Are Switching Up Their Hair Color in the Most Unexpected Way

In the same way Spring has convinced us to do a complete overhaul of our closets, break it off with those people we met on Bumble during cuffing season, and chop our hair to the shortest it has ever been, the season has also inspired celebrities to make big changes with their hair colors.

These aren't exactly the changes you see every year, either. Jada Pinkett Smith, for example, has upped the brightness factor of her previous blond shade by a million. Bella Hadid has done a complete 180, going back in time to her natural shade. Some have traded in their signature colorful hues for something much darker, while others are embracing the most electric shades on the color wheel.

There's just something about the season that screams, "Try something different," and stars are following the suggestion. Ahead, see the biggest celebrity hair color changes as of late. If you're feeling the itch to grab some hair dye, you'll want to read this first.

This Website Is Basically OpenTable For Your City's Most Luxurious Beauty Treatments

Whether we need two-day delivery on home necessities (and lip masks . . . which, in our opinion, are also a necessity) or date-night reservations, it has never been easier to access what we need than it is today. That's because Regi - a platform that allows you to book beauty treatments in your area online or via text - just launched, and it will take your beauty routine to new heights. You'll be able to book everything like facials at top-rated spas, eyebrow-shaping sessions, and that 60-minute nail art appointment that you schedule each week for self-care.

For now, the platform scours for services in the New York City and Los Angeles area, but the company told POPSUGAR it plans to expand to more areas later this year. Ahead, see a preview of the website, which puts all of your beauty indulgences in the palm of your hand.

This Mask Is the Drink of Water My Dry Lips Craved (and It's Only $5 on Amazon Prime)

Having just spent the weekend snowboarding in Whistler, Canada - which, if you had no idea, is still freezing this time of year - every part of my body hurt. The body part that I didn't expect to be achy when I returned home was my lips.

Having been exposed to the harsh air that comes with going 25 miles per hour down a mountain, my mouth was tender to the touch, so much so that smearing balms and salves over them only did so much. Fortunately, the Fast Beauty Co. Lip Service! Mask ($5) is a treatment I've been saving for a situation like this - when nothing, not even my favorite peppermint-infused lip balm, could do the trick.

I pulled the sleeve open and peeled the slippery white mask from its packaging. I laid it on my mouth. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it had a slit across the middle that allowed me to talk . . . well, mumble. I kept it on for the suggested five minutes. In that time, my lips felt like they were being gently massaged, due to a slight tingle that was similar to that of a mild lip plumper. It made the tenderness of my lips feel like a distant memory. Once I peeled off the mask, my mouth felt softer, and the lines underneath my lower lip where my mouth was most chapped seemed to have disappeared.

The best part was that the mask itself was $5. For soft, moisturized lips, you can't beat that.

Break Up With Your Beauty Products, Because Ariana Grande Is Dropping a Beauty Line

Grande already has an assortment of popular fragrances, such as Cloud, Ari by Ariana Grande, Moonlight, and Sweet Like Candy, that are available at Ulta.

4 Editors Get Real About Their Laser Hair Removal Experiences

Laser hair removal is a pretty sweet deal, that is, if going hairless is the ultimate goal.

Think about it: after going through the prescribed amount of sessions, which can last as little as 10 minutes, you'll be able to trade the weekly shaving sessions or monthly wax appointment for a touch-up appointment once every few years. The magic wand that emits the monochromatic hair-follicle-impairing light needs to target the pigment at the root, so experts actually recommend that you shouldn't wax again after your first treatment. You'll even find that the fibers sprout back less frequently in between appointments (if you don't miss any).

Like we said, it's a sweet deal, but you might be wondering about any downsides, and specifically, how much a session under the lights hurts. Four editors get real about their laser hair removal experiences, ahead.
