‘It’s almost like getting hit by lightning twice.’ —PATTON OSWALT, on marrying again after his first wife’s death, to NPR ‘It’s hard for me to think of myself at this age, but I’m doing everything I wanted to do. I’m living in the South of France, 99 percent of my life is devoted to my causes and my kids are grown.’ —PAMELA ANDERSON, on life at 50, to Today ‘It actually kind of repaired certain parts of our relationship that had been fractured from our marriage and our divorce, and it kind of made us friends again.’ —JENNIFER LOPEZ, on working with ex-husband Marc Anthony after their split, during Spotify’s ¡Viva Latino! podcast ‘I auditioned with Matthew: Isn’t that weird?

It wasn’t the kind of performance Fergie usually gives. On Dec. 3 the singer attended an L.A. fund-raiser for the Trevor Project, a nonprofit that works to prevent suicides among LGBTQ youth, and surprised the audience with unscheduled antics. When Armie Hammer began introducing director and designer Tom Ford, the 42-year-old rushed the stage and interrupted him to promote her new album. “This is not a shameless promotion,” she told startled on lookers before lapsing into verses from her song “A Little Work.” “It got awkward fast when we realized this wasn’t planned,” says an observer. “Everyone in the room was uncomfortable.” But a rep for Fergie, who split from husband Josh Duhamel in September, says it was simply “a gag that fell flat due to timing.” The rep adds,…

Kaley Cuoco & Karl Cook The Big Bang Theory star, 32, and the pro equestrian, 26, who have been dating since March 2016, announced they were engaged in a Nov. 30 Instagram video. “Kaley can’t wait to get married.

What is on your holiday wish list this year? Food, always food! I like ginger bread houses, cookies, chocolates… things like that. Do you consider yourself a good gift-giver? Yes. I take a lot of time to think about what people really want and really like. For a go-to hostess gift, I like monogrammed napkins or a beautiful box of chocolates. ‘ALWAYS TRY YOUR BEST. SOMETIMES YOU FAIL, SOMETIMES YOU SUCCEED’ —WITHERSPOON, ON HER PLANS FOR 2018 What are you planning to get your daughter Ava? Something really beautiful and simple, like a piece from Tiffany & Co.

My first husband tried to kill me, and he went to jail for premeditated first-degree attempted murder in 2005. In the beginning of our relationship, hewas very charming. Then the abuse started. Apush became a shove and a shove became a choke and a choke became a hit. Everything kept escalating, and I didn’t know how to get out. I blamed myself, and it was awful. I wish I would have known about the work the nonprofit Safe Horizon does for survivors of abuse, their children and the shelters that they have when I was in that situation. By partnering with their “Put the Nail in It” campaign—where people paint their ring fingernail purple to symbolize their support for the anti-domestic-violence movement—I’m spreading awareness about something that people often feel…

It’s being called a reckoning, a revolution. Last year I was one voice among several when I wrote about Donald Trump grabbing me, pushing me against a wall and kissing me without my consent during a 2005 interview. I never imagined millions would join in to reveal their own experiences with sexual misconduct a year later. After suffering in silence, sometimes for decades, women stepped forward from every sector of society—actors, politicians, prison guards, students, scientists, waitresses, salespeople— to say #MeToo and tell their stories. The enormity of their number is gobsmacking. Each brave woman passed along courage to the next, like a baton in a relay race. And we heard from men too. Watching from the sidelines, I wanted to hug each and every one of you. These accounts…

Do you believe in psychics or mediums? I kind of do. There’s a great deal about our universe and existence that we simply do not understand. Did you do any research for your role? Nothing in particular, but I’ve gone to psychics. I’m Indian, so I certainly grew up with a sense of the otherworldly mysteries of psychics and ghosts and goblins; it was just part of our cultural inheritance. You’re a newlywed. What was the best part about your wedding to Shaifali Puri? The bizarre part is you’re shuttled around and starving. But I got to ride a horse down Peachtree Street in downtown Atlanta with hundreds of people dancing in the street. That was super fun. What makes you happy? Gosh, I think sugar. I try to limit…

When Greg Louganis, 57, first submitted his DNA to ancestry.com in late 2016—and confirmed the identity of his birth father, Fouvale Lutu (People, Aug. 28, 2017)—the Olympic diver never thought he’d find his birth mother as well. Then in May, Louganis, who was given up for adoption at birth, heard from a woman via ancestry.com who told him, “I think you might be my aunt’s son.” On Mother’s Day he called his mom, retired medical assistant Cynthia Harris, 73, for the first time. (She and Lutu had lost touch decades ago.) After nearly 58 years apart, they spent Thanksgiving together at Harris’s home. They shared photos from their pasts, but, says Louganis, who plans to walk Harris down the aisle at her younger son’s 2018 wedding, “I’m about the present.…

‘IT TOOK THEM YEARS TO GET TO THE POINT WHERE THEY ARE NOW’ —AN INSIDER, ON JAY-Z AND BEYONCE After weathering a cheating scandal, Beyoncé and Jay-Zare still “Crazy in Love” —but it took a lot of work for the power couple to mend their fractured marriage. In a recent interview with T: The New York Times Style Magazine, the rapper, 48, told the outlet he was unfaithful to his wife of nine years because he had “shutdown emotionally.” Though their strained relationship fueled more than one headline in recent years—Jay-Z cheating rumors were only exacerbated by his notorious 2014 elevator squabble with sister-in-law Solange—the pair eventually worked through their heartbreak in therapy. “The hardest thing is seeing pain on someone’s face that you caused,” Jay-Z said. Music also served…

The actress—and Jonah Hill’s kid sister—is making waves in Hollywood for both her portrayal of a teen in the hit film Lady Bird and her role in Broadway’s Hello, Dolly! Still, she never anticipated her weight would be such a hot topic. “People have been so kind, saying, ‘It’s not often I get to see my body type onstage or onscreen,’” Feldstein, 24, says of her Lady Bird character, which is something she’s proud of. “To see characters that are confident in how they look makes a difference.” But comments about how good she looks now that she’s lost weight are bothersome to her. “The act of getting smaller is considered an achievement,” she wrote in an essay on refinery29.com. “The only reason I am smaller is because I get…

Marc Summers became a household name hosting the ’80s game show Double Dare, but crippling OCD put his career on hold. “People didn’t understand what obsessive-compulsive disorder was and spread rumors I was difficult to work with,” he says. He caught a second wave of fame hosting Food Network’s Unwrapped in 2001, but in 2009 stomach pain led to a diagnosis of mantle cell lymphoma, and he was given six months to live. “I called my wife, Alice, and said, ‘I’m not going to see the kids get married or our grandchildren,’” says Summers, 66. A second opinion revealed he actually had chronic lymphocytic leukemia, which went into remission after two years of chemotherapy. Then, in 2012, he broke every bone in his face in a taxi crash. After nine…

Canadian electro-pop artist Lights did some soul-searching while writing her latest record—and says the process helped her discover new things about her sexuality. Since releasing Skin & Earth, her fourth record, the Toronto native (bornValerie Poxleitner), who won the Canadian version of a Grammy for New Artist of the Year in 2009, adapted the concept album’s story line into a six-part comic series. “It tookme10 hours a page, and it’s 170 pages!” she says of the comic books. The “Giants” singer, 30, calls the book’s main character “a reflection of my personality,” adding: “She’s bisexual—and it made me realize that about myself, too. If I met the right girl, I could easily fall in love. Love is so much more than gender: You fall in love with a person.”…

Public appearances involve very specific choreography for royals: Greet the crowds, but keep moving. Hold bouquets of flowers in one hand while shaking with the other. Get on eye level with children and listen intently to local dignitaries. On Dec. 1 in the English city of Nottingham— on her first royal engagement, or “walkabout,” ever—Meghan Markle proved she is already a prima ballerina on the world stage. “Hi, I’m Meghan,” she told hundreds of well-wishers who came out to watch her alongside her fiancé, Prince Harry, for a visit to mark World AIDS Day. From 79-year-old Frank Shelton, who was joined by his pet barn owl (“Harry’s brought his bird, so I’ve brought mine,” he said) to 2-year-old Ezekiel Wong, who became too shy to speak, Meghan effortlessly charmed the…

‘I learned from my parents to be good and to do good for others’ Patrick Simondac says there was nothing out of the ordinary about his childhood in Orlando. Raised by parents who immigrated from the Philippines, he and his two brothers “were very good Catholic Filipino boys,” says Simondac, 28. “I studied classical piano and did swimming, tennis, golf.” He had plans to become a nurse after school because his life goal was to help others. But after using Photoshop in high school led to a fascination with airbrushing and enhancing people’s appearance, he decided he could lend support in a different way. “I started thinking, ‘How do I help people feel happy?’” he says. “I realized it was through makeup.... You look good, you feel good!” He began…

1 THE HAND MAID’S TALE Elisabeth Moss, face clenched in fear and anger beneath a prim bonnet, was the unyielding spirit at the heart of Hulu’s adaptation of the classic dystopian novel. 2 BIG LITTLE LIES The HBO series started off as melodrama—Desperate Housewiveswith Monterey real estate and an A-list cast (Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon)—but turned into a gripping story about the dangerous imbalance between women and men. 3 FEUD Bette Davis (Susan Sarandon) battled Joan Crawford (Jessica Lange) all through the filming of their tawdry classic What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? But Ryan Murphy’s FX anthology series wasn’t about their catfight—it was a tart critique of Hollywood sexism. 4 THE VIETNAM WAR The country’s most divisive war, which stretched on for at least a generation, was never even…

In Access Hollywood footage from 2005, Donald Trump boasted of groping and kissing women without their consent. After he dismissed the tape last year as “locker-room talk,” more than a dozen women joined Stoynoff in going public with sexual-misconduct allegations—ranging from the then-businessman’s peeping on naked Miss Teen USA contestants in their dressing rooms to fondling breasts and forcing kisses. He has called all the accusations lies and promised to sue his accusers. He has not. Instead former Apprentice contestant Summer Zervos sued him—claiming he defamed her when he accused her and the other women of “lies” and “total fabrication.” A New York state supreme court judge was holding the first hearing in the lawsuit on Dec. 5. Zervos isn’t the only one impatient for justice in this #MeToo era.…

Last Concert I was onstage with the Los Angeles Philharmonic doing Annie Gosfield’s “War of the Worlds,” which was amazing to participate in. It was new classical music with wonderful solos by tubas and other instruments you don’t get to hear much from, so I was actually part of a concert, and that was extremely exciting. Last Time I Was Inspired It’s very inspiring to me that the work that Dian Fossey began so long ago as this lone woman scientist in Congo has groomed people to protect and save gorillas. Now so many people around the world and in Africa are participating in it. Last Time I Danced Let’s see. I danced at a Halloween party for some of our young cast. We all got dressed up in costumes…

It was a year of soul-searching that began with the Women’s March in January and ended with the firing of Matt Lauer, the latest in a long line of men suddenly and rightfully held accountable for sexual misconduct. In the span of a few months, the chorus of voices speaking out against sexual harassment and assault had toppled a garbage heap full of icons—Bill O’Reilly, Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey (the list goes on)—and caused a national reckoning about the way we treat each other. On a much lighter note, we also ended the year with the delightful engagement of Prince Harry to Meghan Markle; if you’re the editor of People, you really couldn’t ask for a better gift than that. In our year-end issue we once again look back at…

Scott & Jaclyn Stapp The Creed frontman, 44, and his wife, 37, welcomed their third child together, son Anthony Issa, on Nov. 16 and shared his first photos with People. “This has been a truly divine moment for our family,” says the couple, who also have daughter Milán Hayat, 10, and son Daniel Issam, 7.

He gained 30 lbs. of muscle to play a knight seeking the Holy Grail. “I trained for three months, because I wasn’t in very knightly shape,” Cullen says. “My body completely transformed. I’m twice the size that I was before. I was actually looking at some pictures of me from, like, two years ago, and I couldn’t recognize myself.” He dates Orphan Black star Tatiana Maslany. They’ve been together since 2011, after first meeting on the set of a miniseries. Says Cullen: “She’s the best actor I’ve ever worked with.” One of his best buddies is Kit Harington from Game of Thrones. The pair were classmates at London’s Royal Central School of Speech and Drama and have been pals ever since. He’s invited to Harington’s wedding to actress Rose Leslie,…

1 TAYLOR SWIFT REPUTATION After a yearlong hiatus Swift resurfaced with a near-perfect pop album. She still likes to settle scores (“This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things” was immediately scrutinized for references to Kanye West), but she was also focusing her songwriting genius on relatable, detail-rich love songs. The album bolstered an already superstar reputation. 2 ED SHEERAN ÷ On his third record the English star delivered a grab bag of sonic contradictions and juxtapositions: a song that would be at home on the dance floor (“Shape of You”) and a track that wouldn’t be out of place at a wedding (“Perfect”). Weird, but it added up to a first-rate album. 3 DEMI LOVATO TELL ME YOU LOVE ME The Disney alum found her voice on her sixth…
