Ellie’s Great Adventure Ellie Kemper is wrapping up the final season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. And though she tells Us the experience was, professionally, “the greatest joy of my life,” she’s got another greatest joy: being mom of son James, 2, with her husband, writer Michael Koman, 41. The 38-year old actress tells Us about motherhood. Q: Had any baby nightmares? The first plane ride we took was the very worst. He was 5 months old and cried the whole time. I had to summon my inner Kimmy: “Ten seconds at a time. This is going to end.” Q: Have the terrible twos started? I think we’re on the cusp. There was a brutal trip home in the stroller from the playground. It was just screaming and screaming and you…

As his custody battle with ex Angelina Jolie rages on, Brad Pitt is finding joy in work. The father of six, 54, “appeared to be in a happy-go-lucky mood” in L.A.

Don’t wear yourselves out,’” says the source.…

1 | WIN BIG WITH WATERMELON The Brooklyn resident loves to include “a magical pop of red” whether it be a side dish (left) or a sweet treat. “For dessert,” says the pro, “a good hack is if you cut open ginger and rub it against watermelon slices. It’s a beautiful combination.” 2 | GIVE CONDIMENTS A KICK Though he calls himself “a Polish guy who is very sensitive to spice,” Porowski loves mixing gochujang (a Korean red chili paste) with ketchup or mayonnaise. “It gives heat that doesn’t really linger,” he says. 3 | DON’T USE HEAT JUST FOR MEAT While that grill is fired up, consider throwing on some fruits and veggies. Marinated kale or romaine lettuce makes a great charred side. Porowski also notes he has “a…

FRIDAY 6/29 Sicario: Day of the Soldado Forget everything you know about undercooked sequels. This follow-up to 2015’s Sicario is as brutally intense and hard-core as a film can get. Star of the summer Josh Brolin returns as Matt Graver, the CIA agent who casually chomps on gum as he carries out violent operations. In a bid to stop human trafficking, he’s asked to go to Mexico and kidnap a drug kingpin’s teen daughter (Isabela Moner). The goal: Ignite a war between rival cartels. For help, he once again corrals the mysterious operative (Benicio del Toro) still seething about the murder of his own family at the hands of the cartel. What could go wrong when rules don’t apply? For starters, almost everything. And with original heroine Emily Blunt sadly…

USELESS DESIRES / PATTY GRIFFIN “This is the song I warm up to. I’ve used it for years. I love Patty Griffin and this hits every part of my voice.” BEAUTIFUL TRAUMA / PINK “I love Pink and her new album! I basically want to be her friend. She is a badass and all of her music makes me feel stronger and like I can do anything.” BAND ON THE RUN / WINGS “This is one of my favorites. It’s a great song to spin to because it has tempo changes — and it’s great to sing along to.” GOOD MORNING, GOOD DAY / SHE LOVES ME “We play morning songs for [my 16-month-old daughter] Emily. As soon as the chords start, Emily knows the song!” GOOD MORNING STARSHINE /…

1. I’m not a big fan of cilantro. 2. I’m currently reading Quantum Warrior [by John Kehoe], which is blowing my mind because I’m realizing the universe operates in a quantum dynamic. 3. I was valedictorian in junior high. I just loved school, and worked hard. The valedictorian speech was the very first speech I ever gave and I was incredibly nervous. 4. I’m addicted to Perfect Bars, especially the peanut butter flavor. 5. I did a survival training course a few years back. 6. I have a noncommercial Class B license to drive our 45-foot RV. 7. One of my favorite things to do is watch my wife [LeAnn Rimes, 35] perform live. I don’t really have a favorite song. I love all the songs she sings. She could…

Nate Berkus, 46, and Jeremiah Brent, 33, need as many hands as possible to raise daughter Poppy, 3, and son Oskar, 3 months. Hence, their backpack turned diaper bag. “It’s great for on the go,” Brent says. The interior designers (who wed in 2014) spill their children’s essentials for Us. TIME FOR CHANGE “As designers, we can’t help but notice detail,” Berkus says of their Huggies Made by You diapers with Oskar’s monogram on them. “It’s a pattern we chose.” JUST IN CASE “A lot of people carry tiny travel packs of wipes,” Berkus says. “We don’t because we go through them in 25 minutes!” Adds Brent: “We roll deep.” AN EYE FOR ART “Our daughter is into PAW Patrol,” Berkus says. “She went to PAW Patrol Live! and she…

Dear Rosé Former Bachelor star Lauren Bushnell pivoted from roses to rosé when she launched her own refreshing wine with boyfriend Devin Antin. And though she admits she’s “biased,” the reality star tells Us her blend is “the perfect rosé.” Whispering Angel Rosé Model Shanina Shaik picked up this stuff from Château d’Esclans because of its “beautiful” packaging, but she stayed for the taste: “It’s crisp and nice in summer,” she tells Us, adding that the blend is “Not too fruity. I don’t like too fruity.” Kim Crawford Rosé Olivia Culpo prefers a fruit-forward flavor. “I love the fruity nature” of Kim Crawford’s pink variety, she tells Us. Fellow fan Lea Michele concurs: “I can really tell a good wine and this is like summer in a glass,” she says.…

Mama June Shannon is trying confidence on for size. After documenting her weight-loss journey from 460 to 160 pounds on Mama June: From Not to Hot, the mom of four “felt too skinny,” she tells Us. “I’ve gained 25 pounds and honestly I feel better. Yes, I’m not a size 4. But I’m happy.” Now, on season 2 of the WE tv reality series (Fridays, 9 P.M.), she and youngest daughter Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, 12, return to the pageant world.

Since she wed Prince Harry May 19, Duchess Meghan has been learning the royal ropes from the ultimate expert: Queen Elizabeth II. Her majesty “has met Meghan on more than a few occasions, privately and publicly,” a source tells Us, “and it’s been a fantastic opportunity for her to get to know more about Meghan and where her passions lie.” The 36-year-old American “quickly demonstrated that she is intelligent, polite and keen to learn,” adds the source, with “just the type of vim and vigor” for humanitarianism that the queen appreciates. TWO-WAY STREET The 92-year-old monarch has impressed the former actress as well. “She has a brilliant sense of humor. That’s one of the first things that brought her and Meghan closer,” says the source. “It’s that warm side of…

Victoria Beckham is setting the record straight: She and husband David, 43, are not splitting. “I am trying to be the best wife and the best professional,” the designer, 44, said at the Forbes Women’s Summit in NYC June 19. “When I get home, I try to put the phone down and spend time with the children and spend time with David.” CLAP BACK The comments come just weeks after a rumor circulated that the couple of nearly two decades were calling it quits. “There is no impending statement, has been no statement, and there is no divorce,” her rep told Us at the time. “Fake news fueled by social media. Embarrassing for the sloppy outlets who have chosen to write such rubbish.”…

The heart wants what it wants. Danny Amendola and Olivia Culpo are giving their relationship another go after splitting in March, a source confirms to Us. The couple, who dated for two years, were spotted together in early June at a wedding and were later seen on the former Miss Universe’s Instagram story. At the time of their breakup, an insider chalked up the duo’s end to “distance” after the wide receiver, 32, was signed to the Miami Dolphins. In May, Culpo, 26, opened up to Us about her desire to focus on herself. “I think that breakups are very painful, but they’re a great thing because it allows you to put a mirror up to yourself and really figure it out,” she said. “No matter what, whether you’re the…

Janet Jackson is opening up about having depression. The Grammy winner, 52, penned an emotional letter for Essence’s July/August “Happiness” issue, reflecting on some of her biggest hardships. “When it comes to happiness, I’m no expert,” the private singer, who covered the glossy, wrote. “I have only my life experience as a guide. I’ve known great happiness and great sadness.” In the personal essay, she dished on life from childhood to adulthood, and revealed failed relationships — including her split from third husband Wissam Al Mana, 43, in April 2017 after five years — often left her in despair. JOURNEY TO JOY But she found her way through the darkness thanks to their son, Eissa. “The height of happiness is holding my baby son in my arms and hearing him…

Thanks to his baby face, Ryan Phillippe doesn’t need to rely on dad jokes to embarrass his daughter. “I get mistaken for her brother sometimes, which repulses her!” the Shooter actor said in 2016. “Like, absolutely repulses her that anyone could mistake me for her brother.” Not that he’s surprised his kids are his and Witherspoon’s doppelgängers. “Who else are they going to look like, you know?” the 43-year-old, who also has son Kai, 6, with ex Alexis Knapp, joked the following year. “We don’t sit around talking about how much we look alike!”…

As Queer Eye’s resident foodie, Antoni Porowski has a ton of tricks up his sleeve to help even the most inexperienced of chefs serve up an amazing spread. And while he notes that a classic grilled steak brings him “so much joy,” the Netflix star, 34, prefers to let seasonal produce shine when planning a warm-weather menu. “I’m definitely a lot more plant-based in the summer,” he tells Us. “When ingredients are in peak season, you don’t have to do much to them.” Watermelon in Olive Oil SERVES 8 INGREDIENTS 1 small watermelon, cubed into equal-size pieces1 cup high-quality extra virgin olive oil2–3 tbsp fresh cracked pepperMaldon saltOptional: fresh mint halloumi or feta…
