“I’m really bad at wrapping gifts,” admits the Saturday Night Live alum. Good thing she’s teamed up with Scotch Brand to keep this season running smoothly. “I think that this tape actually makes it so easy.” But Nwodim tells Us her favorite part of this time of year isn’t the presents — it’s quality time with loved ones. “I’m from a big Nigerian American family, and we would all get together,” Nwodim says. “I just love the cacophony of the holidays, having us all in one house at the same time.” So far, so Just Like Us — but how does the rest of her life compare to ours? What was the last thing you streamed? Last thing I streamed was the movie Weapons. I loved it. It was so…

“I don’t believe in the moon landing. That’s very controversial. And I feel bad because I think I riled Kim up about it, and I’ve gotten her into a lot of trouble!”On influencing her sister’s controversial opinion KHLOÉ KARDASHIAN “Imagine the embarrassment of being sung ‘Happy Birthday’ to — times a hundred.”Why he hates standing ovations HARRIS DICKINSON “Suddenly, I felt like a funny shame.

The Valley’s Luke Broderick and Kristen Doute are officially six months into their parenting journey, and they couldn’t be happier. “We’re obsessed with her. Kaia is, like, the best thing ever. She’s hilarious,” Doute, 42, told Us of their baby girl at BravoCon, with Broderick, 34, adding, “She’s the main focal point of our joy right now.” The couple, who got engaged in 2024, did not have an easy journey to parenthood, enduring pregnancy loss and fertility treatment before welcoming Kaia in June. While Broderick says they’re still “figuring out” their new dynamic as a family of three, Doute notes that ultimately, they’re “thriving” as parents. “It was really about [finding] our identity separately,” she explains, “and then as a couple.”…

Sorry, ladies: Glen Powell may be off the market. The Chad Powers star is “casually seeing” actress Michelle Randolph, a source tells Us. The pair sparked dating rumors in November when a photo surfaced of Randolph supporting Powell backstage at his Saturday Night Live hosting gig, and they were spotted dancing at a bar in the actor’s hometown of Austin, Texas. “They started seeing where things would go around October,” shares the source, “and have been trying to keep it under the radar.” The Running Man star, 37, and the 1923 alum, 28, first connected because she’s “friends with his sister Leslie and runs in a similar circle in L.A,” according to the source, who notes they also have “many mutual friends.” Plus, Randolph has spent plenty of time in…

DECEMBER 20, 2010 In the final months leading up to her wedding, palace sources and experts told Us that Kate Middleton was starting to ease into royal life with the help of her aides and future husband, Prince William. Their marriage has all the ingredients of a great success,” expert Katie Nicholl said. Kendra Wilkinson told Us her son Hank Baskett IV’s milestones ahead of his first birthday on Dec. 11, from walking and talking to sharing his snacks. “He cares about you before himself,” the new mom proudly gushed. A beaming Amber Portwood posed for photos with her daughter, Leah, while reuniting at their new Indiana home on Dec. 6, weeks after the Teen Mom star’s arrest for battering the 2-year-old’s father, Gary Shirley. Us revealed Nicole Richie’s plans…

When Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson revealed in December 2023 that he was working on a documentary about Sean “Diddy” Combs as sexual assault allegations against the music mogul began to mount, no one was quite sure how serious he was. Jackson has been trolling Combs — who was sentenced to 50 months in prison after being convicted of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution in July — for years, and it seemed entirely possible the announcement was simply another attempt to get under his longtime rival’s skin. But Jackson had every intention of following through, and on Dec. 2, Netflix debuted Sean Combs: The Reckoning. The four-part docuseries — executive produced by Jackson and directed by Emmy winner Alexandria Stapleton — is as expansive as it is damning:…

1. Raise a Glass to Something New Just in time for the holidays, Matthew and Camila McConaughey have released a rare, limited-edition expression of their signature organic tequila — and are sharing their favorite way to mix it up! “Our Organic Extra Añejo is something special,” Camila tells Us. “It’s smooth and full of flavor — agave, oak, a little chocolate — and it’s got that Texas warmth that makes you want to slow down, kick back and enjoy the season.” Extra Old Fashioned INGREDIENTS 2 oz Pantalones Organic Extra Añejo Tequila.5 ozorangeliqueur3 dashes Angostura bitters.2 ozagave Garnish (orange peel and brandied cherry) INSTRUCTIONS In a mixing glass, combine Pantalones Organic Extra Añejo Tequila, orange liqueur, bitters, agave, ice and stir.

Praise be! It’s another colorful whodunit starring drawling detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) — but for the third Knives Out mystery, Wake Up Dead Man (Netflix, Dec. 12), writer/director Rian Johnson aims higher than merely answering who committed what murder when and why. In the film, Father Jud Duplenticy (a haunting, excellent Josh O’Connor), a priest struggling with anger issues, is shipped off to an upstate New York parish that has more creepy characters than an old-timey carnival. When a monsignor turns up dead, Jud becomes the main suspect. But as his loyal churchgoers — played by the game Andrew Scott, Glenn Close, Jeremy Ren ner, Kerry Washington and more — unspool their various tales of woe, we learn they all have reason to kill. An improvement over 2022’s…

THE MOMENT: Bring On the Briefcases! Deal or No Deal Turned Out to Be Money in the Bank 20 Years Ago It was both title and catchphrase! “Deal… or no deal?” Over and over, host Howie Mandel posed that question to players on his NBC game show, a ratings-grabber from its Dec. 19, 2005, premiere. (All five episodes in that Christmas week stunt landed in the Top 15.) Each contestant would pick one briefcase out of 26 that held a hidden dollar value — from a penny to $1 million — and repeat until tension reached health-hazard levels. A low amount inside meant big bucks would remain in play. “This was the most relatable, maddening, ‘engageable’ television, I think, to date,” Mandel tells Us. “Everybody could open a case and…

Deja view: Holding a beverage in each hand, MGK squatted next to his 16-year-old daughter, Casie, during a visit to Universal Orlando Resort, 11 years after they posed for a similar picture at the theme park. A lot has changed since then: Casie’s gotten much taller and has ditched her pacifier habit, but it’s nice to know that some things remain the same — including the line for the Hogwarts Express!…

No, this isn’t American Horror Story: Emma Roberts actually walked into a dry cleaner and said, “Hi, this is my doll — she needs her coat dry-cleaned,” adding that the doll’s “little undergarments” also needed attention. The cleaners agreed to a Friday deadline, but when Roberts arrived, they asked her to return at 2 p.m. To her credit, she didn’t throw a diva fit and joked that the doll “is going to be so thrilled” with the results. Let’s hope Roberts (or the little lady) left a glowing Yelp review!…

Dave Coulier has been diagnosed with cancer for the second time in a year. Eight months after beating Stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma, the Full House alum, 66, revealed he’s battling a “totally unrelated” form of tongue cancer. “It’s been a roller-coaster,” he told Craig Melvin on the Today show on Dec. 2. “To go through chemotherapy and feel that relief of ‘Whoa, it’s gone!’ and then to get a test that says, ‘Well, now you’ve got another kind of cancer’… it is a shock to the system.” Coulier shared that he continued getting PET scans after being declared cancer-free in March, the most recent of which found a growth at the base of his tongue in October. He went to an ear, nose and throat oncologist for more testing, including a…

Paul Revere may have loudly warned, “The British are coming!” in the time of the American Revolution, but the British pop-girl invasion of 2025 came more quietly, one TikTok at a time. Of course, all-American stars like Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter and Ariana Grande aren’t going anywhere — and they remain at the top of the charts — but up-and-comers like Olivia Dean, Raye and Lola Young are giving them a run for their money, infiltrating our playlists, mood boards and Instagram feeds — and we’re not mad about it! The most recent wave of U.K.–based female talent can be traced back to last summer, when we all were describing things as “so Julia” thanks to Charli XCX’s Grammy-winning Brat. A few months later, you couldn’t turn on the radio…

2006 50 claimed Diddy knows who killed Biggie on his diss track “The Bomb.” 2007 Things appeared peaceful when Diddy, 50 and Jay-Z teamed up for the “I Get Money” remix. 2016 50 partnered with Effen vodka, and later insulted Diddy’s Cîroc brand. “Puff’s is not even vodka. It’s grapes [and] says ‘made with vodka,’” he said. Feb 2016 50 trolled Diddy on Insta after the release of Murder Rap: Inside the Biggie & Tupac Murders, using the hashtag: “#nopuffyjuice he killed Your favorite Rapper.” 2018 In an interview with The Breakfast Club, 50 said Diddy had asked to take him shopping years earlier, and that it made him a “little uncomfortable.” 2018 During his own appearance on The Breakfast Club, Diddy playfully teased 50, saying, “50 you’re breaking my…

Simon Cowell’s new Netflix docuseries, The Next Act, opens with the music mogul getting what his partner, Lauren Silverman, describes as “the longest haircut ever” inside their sprawling London home. Just when she thinks it’s finally over, an irritated Lauren, 48, walks back into the bathroom and asks Cowell, 66, why he’s getting his “makeup done too,” to which he deadpans, “To look handsome.” Stars — They’re Just Like Us, eh? Sure, the six-episode show (out Dec. 10) features Cowell jetting from a sun-kissed Barbados villa to his crystal-filled Malibu mansion and a beachfront Miami hotel, but even during luxurious pit stops, he’s as simple as they come. After all, the man’s been wearing his signature black T-shirt and jeans for two decades and counting! “When I go to work,…

Just when we thought we were out, she pulls Us back in! It’s been a year since Taylor Swift wrapped her staggeringly successful Eras Tour: 21 months, 51 cities, $2 billion in ticket sales, 250 pairs of custom Louboutins (hers), loads of friendship bracelets (ours) and one adorable romance. Now it’s back in the docuseries Taylor Swift: The End of an Era (Disney+, Dec. 12). Over six episodes (two a week), we get to fly-on-the-wall it through all the restricted-access areas. Not gonna lie: We’re most curious about seeing the pop star interact with her then-boyfriend, nowfiancé Travis Kelce. We’ve seen some tantalizing clips of the two sharing kisses and hugs, playing around on the massive set and even chatting on the phone. “The most meaningful relationship I’ve ever had…

Audrey Hobert So, so fun. My [5-year-old] son and I love her song “I Like to Touch People.” We listened on the way to school today. She writes with Gracie Abrams — they’re best friends, apparently. Superhero It’s funny and informative, about how people operate in Hollywood at their worst — so “inside baseball.” It’s written by my friend Tim Blake Nelson, who’s been there and done that. Center Stage I love [the 2000 ballet drama] Center Stage. It’s really fun that my daughter [Nina, 8] can watch it with me now, because I know all the lines, all the songs, and I pretty much know all the dances.…

Gwen Stefani looked shy while meeting Santa as a little girl. Perhaps she was nervous about making the “good list” — or maybe she was already contemplating the girl power lyrics of her 2025 song “Shake the Snow Globe,” where she questions the holiday hierarchy and why Mrs Claus never gets a mention. "Why does Kris get the credit?/Can we give her a round of applause?” You tell them, Gwen!"…

Megan Fox and MGK have come a long way since their 2024 post-Thanksgiving split. The pair welcomed daughter Saga in March and have subsequently been spending a lot more time together, slowly repairing their relationship along the way. “Their girl is their top priority, and she’s brought them closer than ever. They’re in a much stronger place than they were even six months ago, and Megan says their baby has given her a sense of peace and healing,” an insider tells Us of Fox, 39, and MGK, 35. “They’ve been staying together again and Megan has let MGK back into her life with no lingering tension between them.” The couple — who first hooked up in 2020 and have been on and off ever since — are navigating a blended…

Emma Chamberlain & Peter McPoland The influencer confirmed she was “going through a breakup” after being in a two-year “serious relationship” on the Nov. 13 episode of her podcast, Anything Goes, after speculation that she and the musician parted ways. Angel Reese & Wendell Carter Jr. After months of romance rumors, the Orlando Magic center confirmed he’s dating the WNBA star during a TV appearance on Nov. 17, calling Reese “his girl” and adding that the pair are “locked in.” Fraser Olender & Matt Rogers The Las Culturistas podcast cohost revealed his romance with the Below Deck star by sharing a sweet photo of the duo from BravoCon, later adding that they’re having a “really, really great time” together.…

Presley Gerber, the son of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, candidly revealed in a Dec. 1 Instagram video that he’s taking several prescriptions to better his mental health: an opioid called buprenorphine; Xanax, Valium and other benzodiazepines for anxiety; mirtazapine for depression; and prazosin for “night terrors.” The model, 26, said his psychiatrist often adjusts his dosages but doesn’t leave much “leeway” because he needs “direction.” Working out and avoiding alcohol have also helped Presley, who added that he’s looking for “good influences” in his life: “I’ve grown up in Hollywood, and there’s a lot of people around that I love to death, but right now I’m trying not to be around them.” Crawford, 59, quickly showed her support, commenting, “We love you and you are not alone.”…

Will Smith’s self-proclaimed “best friend for nearly 40 years,” Bilaal Salaam (a.k.a. Brother Bilaal), filed a $3 million lawsuit against the actor’s estranged wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, on Nov. 7. Salaam claimed in court documents obtained by Us that the Girls Trip star, 54, “threatened” him by “stating that if he continued ‘telling her personal business,’ he would ‘end up missing or catch a bullet.’” The “verbally aggressive” confrontation allegedly occurred during Smith’s birthday party at a Regency movie theater in Calabasas, California, in 2021. Salaam claimed one of Pinkett Smith’s associates proceeded to follow him to his car “while continuing to issue verbal threats.” The actress has yet to respond to Salaam’s complaint, but she previously accused him of “making up salacious, malicious stories” about her as part of…

AJ McLean is ready to reintroduce himself. After 30 years in the Backstreet Boys, the singer, 47, has rebranded as Alexander James for his new solo EP, aptly titled Hi My Name Is Alex (out now). “AJ is a persona. He’s a character in a band,” he explains to Us. “And Alex is who I am. That’s my birth name.” The six-track project (a full album is slated for early 2026) offers a candid reflection on the past five years of McLean’s life, during which he got sober and split from his wife, Rochelle. “Authenticity has become a really big part of my life now,” he says, “and it really is leading the charge.” What’s the story behind the song “Arizona”? About two years ago, I took a well-needed reprieve.…

Dune (1984) “I’m 22, 23, and I get this weird message on my machine,” MacLachlan says of nabbing his first big role. “Not a clue what I was doing, but loved the experience.” Blue Velvet (1986) Reuniting with Dune director David Lynch catapulted MacLachlan to cult-noir status and introduced him to costar Laura Dern, whom he dated for four years after filming. Twin Peaks (1989) Agent Dale Cooper redefined what it meant to be a heartthrob when he set out to find who killed Laura Palmer. “Such a wonderful character,” he says. Showgirls (1995) “With director Paul Verhoeven and screenwriter Joe Eszterhas teaming up again for the follow-up to Basic Instinct, I thought, ‘What could go wrong?’” he jokes of the widely panned classic. Sex and the City (2000) “It…

We just want to help. That’s a common refrain in this stellar postapocalyptic drama — about an alien virus that renders almost everyone happy — and also the reason we’re nudging the uninitiated to check out Apple TV’s Pluribus. (The finale is Dec. 26!) Its November debut scored 100 percent on Rotten Tomatoes (the rating has since “slipped” to 98 percent), and Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul creator Vince Gilligan was never so unfettered. Saul’s Rhea Seehorn is Emmybound as cranky Carol Sturka, author of “mindless crap” (so she says) and one of a handful of people who don’t share the sunshine-y hive-mind. Those who do want her to join them… but it seems they have some WTF secrets.…
