Daryl Hannah is a first-time bride—and the groom is a rock legend. After dating for four years, actress Hannah, 57, and Neil Young, 72, tied the knot on July 27 in an ultra-private ceremony on Young’s yacht. The low-key vows were spotted by sailors off Washington state’s scenic San Juan Islands. “It was an intimate gathering,” says Northwest Sailing Adventures Captain Ron Fugere, who spied the Splash star in a white dress. “We could see the officiant and the couple,” the skipper says of the sunset ceremony. “They threw some flower petals and wrapped it up.” The newlyweds (it’s Young’s third marriage) also celebrated their union on Aug. 25, reportedly inviting friends such as Joni Mitchell and Young’s former bandmate Stephen Stills to a bash at the bucolic Santa…

On Tess Holliday: Making It Big, the 33-year-old balances family life (she and husband Nick, 36, are raising sons Rylee, 12, and Bowie, 2) with her career. “I’m not interested in perfection,” the Laurel, Miss., native says of her life in the spotlight. As for documenting sessions with her personal trainer (inset), Holliday says, “There’s so much judgment placed on me about what my life is like and if I’m active or if I’m not. I actually enjoy working out, and I hope that it inspires…

Call it a grand show of respect: Music icon Aretha Franklin, who died on Aug. 16 at age 76 after a battle with pancreatic cancer, was remembered on Aug. 31 during a funeral that reached epic proportions. Following three days of open-casket public viewings (for which she was dressed in three separate outfits), the Queen of Soul’s funeral took place at Greater Grace Temple in the “Respect” singer’s beloved home city of Detroit. A procession of more than 100 pink Cadillacs escorted an ivory hearse carrying her gold-plated casket, which arrived shortly before what promised to be a memorable and eventful celebration of the singer’s life. As millions tuned in online, pastors, politicians and pop stars alike made their way to the pulpit. “We started out as Aretha groupies,”…

‘I wear what I like, and I don’t dress for anyone’s approval’ —CATE BLANCHETT “Cate is one of the most talented actresses of our time, not to mention one of the most well-dressed women in the world,” says Angela Missoni, who designed the metallic suit the star wore while promoting Ocean’s 8 (top left). We couldn’t agree more. From pastel menswear during the day to a jaw-dropping backless gown at night, Blanchett expertly blends timeless and unexpected elements. “She’s adventurous in her fashion choices but always elegant,” adds Missoni. Those qualities have also made her a fashion muse. “She’s the epitome of the woman I aspire to design for,” says Mary Katrantzou, who created the floral pouf dress the star wore in Cannes (left).…

‘I just love color. I’ve never been afraid of it’ —LUPITA NYONG’O In just five years Lupita Nyong’o has established herself as the ultimate red carpet risk-taker. With the release of Black Panther, her biggest blockbuster yet, she had ample opportunity to show off her sartorial prowess—and she didn’t disappoint. Using her warrior character as inspiration, Nyong’o and her stylist Micaela Erlanger went for vibrant looks with “empowering silhouettes” and gold shield-like embellishments throughout the film’s press tour. The actress then pivoted toward lighter designs like an airy, white Dior confection at the Cannes Film Festival (middle right), proving she can pull off any ensemble with confidence. “People respond so well to what she wears because she owns her look,” says Erlanger.…

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger’s surprise summer romance is still in full bloom—and sources say they are getting more devoted to each other by the day. “It’s only been a couple of months, but they’re both serious about the relationship and hopeful for the future,” says a source close to the couple. “Chris doesn’t just date to date, and neither does Katherine. She’s very excited.” Since the pair, who were first introduced by Schwarzenegger’s mother, Maria Shriver (her dad is actor Arnold), were spotted enjoying a picnic together in Santa Barbara, Calif., on Father’s Day in June, the Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom star, 39, and the author, 28, have been spending plenty of quality time together.

My fiancé, Matt Lombardi, had a really good friend named Corey Griffin—he grew up playing hockey with him. In 2014 Corey died in a drowning accident at age 27. His family created the Corey C. Griffin Charitable Foundation after his tragic death because of Corey’s passion for life and dedication to helping kids. The foundation supports the families of pediatric patients at Boston Children’s Hospital by providing them with temporary housing and gives scholarships to students at Saint John Paul II Catholic Academy. When I was in the Rio Olympics, we did a campaign with Airbnb, and all the money went to the foundation. And this year Matt ran the Boston Marathon in honor of Corey and raised close to $20,000. This is a great example of how you…

‘Badgley hasn’t lost his soulful good looks’ TV | You For Penn Badgley, There’s Only One Girl in the Whole World. Pity Her DRAMA As psychotic antiheroes go, Joe Goldberg doesn’t operate on the same level of depravity as Dexter, the fetishistic Showtime serial killer. Nonetheless Joe is a very smart, very dangerous stalker, and he’s not overly finicky about hurting any person standing between him and his unsuspecting heart’s desire, Guinevere (Elizabeth Lail). Plus, he’s played by Badgley, who hasn’t lost his Gossip Girl good looks: He’s a soulful, dark-haired, self-conscious outsider—Heathcliff with a touch of nervous geek. Joe manages an old-fashioned bookstore that happens to have a glass-walled, climate-controlled vault in the basement. This is perfect for storing rare books and—well, let’s say it’s just as good…

EIGHT YEARS AGO MICHELLE LECLAIR, A MOTHER OF FOUR LIVING IN LOS ANGELES, WAS EARNING millions of dollars a year as the founder of one of the nation’s most successful woman-owned life-insurance firms—but her life was the opposite of picture-perfect. The self-described “poster girl for Scientology” had fallen in love with a woman, and, she says, the controversial church did not approve. She claims that after she defected in 2010, the church waged a brutal campaign against her. It’s been a little more than a year since her nightmare ended, but she still pinches herself most mornings just to make sure. “When I open my eyes,” she says, “I catch myself waiting for that heaviness to set in. Then I realize—nothing needs to set in. This is my reality…

‘I liked her immediately, and I still do’ —ANNA KENDRICK Sitting down with Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively is a front-row seat to a battle of wits. The costars in the new thriller A Simple Favor say they bonded over their love of sarcasm, cookie decorating videos and NSFW language. “Can you imagine how loaded you’d be if you had a swear jar?” jokes Lively, 31. “It’s not like you have to give it to somebody,” says Kendrick, 33. “Oh, maybe people give it to charity. That would never occur to me because I’m a bad person.” What were your first impressions of each other? KENDRICK We were 18 or 19 and at a party, and I remember thinking, “God, she’s tall.” I liked her immediately. LIVELY She was…

Fourteen-year-old Donovan Nicholas’s voice shook only slightly as he called 911 on April 6, 2017, to announce that he’d murdered his dad’s longtime girlfriend, Heidi Taylor, who had raised him. “I just killed my mother,” he said. But his call was not exactly a confession: Though Donovan described stabbing Taylor, 40, with a kitchen knife and then shooting her in the head in their Urbana, Ohio, home, he blamed the violence on someone else—someone he called Jeff—who lived “inside” him. “I’m just so scared,” he told the dispatcher. “I don’t want to die in prison. I swear it wasn’t my fault.” A jury disagreed. In July, days after his 16th birthday, Donovan, who was tried as an adult, was convicted of aggravated murder and sentenced to life in prison.…

‘She is very conscious of clothes being photogenic, which is one of the clever things about the way she dresses’ —FASHION EXPERT HILARY ALEXANDER When Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made their first official royal appearance as an engaged couple in December, all eyes were on the American-born actress, her real-life Prince Charming—and her gorgeous $740 Strathberry handbag (similar style, left), which sold out 11 minutes after they stepped out of the car. Five months later Meghan made her debut as the Duchess of Sussex at Buckingham Palace, wearing a stunning pair of $2,945 diamond rosebud earrings by Vanessa Tugendhaft (see page 77). Once again they instantly flew off shelves, further sealing Meghan’s status as the year’s biggest style star and proving that women around the world want to…

‘My goal with Angela is to change people’s perceptions of what a 60-year-old woman should wear’ —STYLIST JENNIFER AUSTIN Be it a yellow fringe jumpsuit or a midriff-baring sequin ensemble, Angela Bassett makes fearless fashion choices, and after more than 25 years in the spotlight, they just keep getting more daring. “I don’t dress her based on her age, I dress her based on her personality,” says Jennifer Austin, the actress’s stylist of five years. And that means bright colors, fitted silhouettes and statement accessories. “Angela is a woman who exudes confidence, and that comes across as soon as you meet her,” says Austin. “I want her wardrobe to reflect that and also say, ‘Just because I’m a certain age doesn’t mean I can’t wear a two-piece and have…

Janet Gearhart uses a lot of adjectives to describe her guide dog Poppet. The 3-year-old black Labrador retriever is “delightful,” “wonderful” and “friendly.” But Gearhart, a retired program director for the visually impaired, can think of only one adjective to describe life without Poppet: “awful.” Diagnosed in her early 30s with retinitis pigmentosa, an inherited degenerative eye disease, Gear-hart, now 69, has been gradually losing her peripheral vision. Today that loss is so severe that she can no longer distinguish facial features. When she was first diagnosed, Gearhart, who lives in Oak-dale, Calif., navigated the world with a cane or help from her husband, Ed. But in 1996, after she was nearly hit by a truck while walking to work, she obtained her first guide dog so that she…

Last Time I Sang Out Loud About a half hour ago. I’m in a band [the Rough Cuts] and play the bass. I like to practice in the shower, but I’m always afraid to be too loud because the neighbors might call 911. Last DIY Project Last weekend I had to adjust the doors in our apartment because they were sticking. And I did it with a minimal amount of cussing. Last Time My Pet Made Me Laugh We have an Australian Labradoodle named Lucy, and I hid under the covers because she wanted me to wake up.

“Hallelujah! I’m headed to the mall! I’ve only been once in 13 long painful months,” Miller posted on Instagram Aug. 28.” It’s been nearly five months since a sudden health crisis left Abby Lee Miller in a wheelchair, and the former Dance Moms star is still battling to recover despite difficult days ahead. “Abby has been trying to stay positive throughout this journey, but it’s been tough,” an insider tells People. “She’s getting a little stronger every day, but we don’t know if she’ll ever walk again.” After serving eight months in jail for bankruptcy fraud, Miller, 52, was living in a halfway house in April when she required emergency surgery for what was thought to be a spinal infection.

Best Photobomb Ever: Abby the Giraffe Crashes a Wedding Photo Shoot EAST LONDON, SOUTH AFRICA Newlyweds Tristan and Luke Karshagen had just tied the knot on Aug. 18 when a surprise guest popped into their wedding photo shoot at South Africa’s Areena Riverside Resort. Abby—a friendly male giraffe at the game reserve whose name is short for Abnormally Big Baby—approached the couple as they posed and even bent down to nuzzle them as they shared a kiss. Bride Tristan, 23, admits that it was “nerve-racking” at first having the large animal so close, “but the fact that he was so tame and really just inquisitive put everyone at ease,” she says. “It felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Abby is mesmerizing.” An Anonymous Donor Surprises 143 Teachers With $100 Bills…

MOTHER AND DAUGHTER LeClair with her mom, Terri (in 1993), who was instrumental in getting her into Scientology. “I was naive,” LeClair says, “and the church gave me security and confidence. They seemed to have all the answers to everything.” A DEDICATED FOLLOWER “My mother devoted her life to the church,” LeClair says of Terri (in 2003), who spent nearly three decades as a member of Sea Org, which comprised the church’s most committed members. THE KIDS SHE FOUGHT FOR LeClair’s children (clockwise from top left) in 2011: Jadon, Sage, London and Savannah (whom Michelle and her then husband adopted). “I was so lucky to have my family around me while I was going through this,” she says.

America’s First Ladies often play it safe—avoiding politics, prizing privacy—but there was never anything typical about Betty Ford. Thrust into the role overnight when President Nixon resigned in the Watergate scandal in 1974 and Vice President Gerald Ford took over, Betty, a Martha Graham-trained dancer, tiptoed around nothing. She spoke frankly about her children’s use of marijuana (“I’m sure they’ve all probably tried it”), supported legalized abortion (“Bring it out of the backwoods and into the hospitals, where it belongs”) and went public with her breast cancer and mastectomy—easing a long-held stigma. Sometimes, for her four kids, Betty was a little too candid—like the time she said she “wouldn’t be surprised” if her daughter Susan, then 18, was having premarital sex. “The joke is that there were lines of…

Smart? Yes. Brooding? Sometimes. Sexy? Of course. But no one could ever accuse Ethan Hawke—Hollywood’s leading generation-X smart-throb—of being lazy or complacent. Hawke, 47, has made more than 75 movies in almost 35 years as an actor—and when he’s not on-camera he’s tackling Broadway plays, directing a passion project or writing a screenplay or book. (His graphic novel about the Apache Wars was a 2016 New York Times bestseller.) “I’m a pretty restless person,” Hawke says with a laugh. But even he notes that he’s never had a summer as busy as this one. “This has hit some new level,” Hawke says of releasing three back-to-back movies over the past couple of months. There was the critically acclaimed drama First Reformed, in which he played a tortured small-town minister…

‘I really loved my Met Gala look. It was so fun to wear gold and be all bronzed’ —KIM KARDASHIAN WEST Q+A Describe your personal style. During the day I’m very chill and casual but still put together. At night I like to dress in sexy, but simple, form-fitting clothes. How has your look evolved?

‘Tracee is always game to take a fashion risk’ —STYLIST KARLA WELCH Q+A What was your favorite red carpet look this year? The Marc Jacobs dress I wore to the Golden Globes (bottom left), because it felt like an expression of my history and my power. What do you love most about getting dressed up? Fittings! I love, love, love making outfits, so trying on clothes is my favorite part. What elements do you look for in a red carpet gown? I have to make sure it photographs well, because hanger appeal doesn’t always translate in real life. And it has to make me feel like a badass. What message do you want to send with your fashion? You can wear whatever you want as long as it makes…

‘There’s a casual, beachy ease to Margot. I never want her to look too done up’ —STYLIST KATE YOUNG She may have played a figure skater who fell from grace in I, Tonya, but Margot Robbie won fashion gold on the red carpet this year. She quickly rose to style-icon status with a series of ethereal looks in angelic white and blush pink that stood out in a sea of look-at-me designs. That amazing understated elegance was all part of her stylist Kate Young’s playbook. “I was looking for things that had that kind of minimal vibe but with something extra to make them cool,” she says. They especially nailed that perfect combo at the Oscars, where Robbie shone in a custom Chanel gown (top left) that featured three-dimensional…
