Throughout her six-decade career, Patti LaBelle has been acclaimed for her powerful singing voice, but offstage, she’s earned some equally glowing reviews for her culinary skills. She’s even logged time playing chef to assorted A-list pals. “I’ve cooked for a lot of entertainers: the Braxtons, the Rolling Stones, Richard Pryor, Oprah,” says the 77-year-old legend, whose latest project is a 20th-anniversary reissue of her first cookbook, LaBelle Cuisine. One dinner guest, Sir Elton John, gave her a diamond ring to make up for losing her Tupperware, and her sometime collaborator Prince once asked her to cook for him at his Paisley Park estate in Minnesota. “He had his assistants shop for me, and they bought, like, 20 items. I was cooking my face off!” she says. “But when it was time…

The Lollipop Theater Network is a nationwide nonprofit organization bringing movies and entertainment to children confined to hospitals due to chronic or life-threatening illnesses. I became involved almost 20 years ago. My cousin is friends with Evelyn [Iocolano, the founder] and told me how special the organization was. Once I saw it for myself, I became a lifelong supporter. I usually do in-person visits, but because of COVID, we’ve switched to Zoom, which actually helped us come up with a cool fundraising idea. On July 20 Charitybuzz will launch an auction where people can bid on the chance to hang out with my The Devil Wears Prada family [Meryl Streep, Stanley Tucci, Emily Blunt] and me on Zoom to raise money for this amazing cause. Kids dealing with serious…

‘A GROWN MAN DOES NOT ENGAGE IN INAPPROPRIATE TEXT MESSAGES TO A TEENAGER’—JUDGE TIMOTHY McCORMICK Dressed in a suit jacket and tie, former Nickelodeon star Drake Bell appeared via Zoom before Cuyahoga County Judge Timothy McCormick in a Cleveland courtroom July 12 to face sentencing. A month earlier, on June 23, he pleaded guilty to a felony—attempted endangering children—and a misdemeanor charge of disseminating matter harmful to juveniles for behavior that involved a teenage fan who had once idolized him. “My conduct was wrong,” Bell told the court. “I’m sorry that the victim was harmed in any way. … I have taken this matter very, very seriously.” But his wasn’t the only voice—or face—onscreen. The young woman at the center of the case, now 19, detailed the trauma she says…

June 8 was a day for champagne bubbles, cake and balloons at the Atria Senior Living community home on Manhattan’s Upper West Side—part of a memorable birthday salute to coresidents and friends Ruth Schwartz, Edith “Mitzi” Moscou and Lorraine Pirrello, all of whom turned 100 within a week of one another. “I think I was born under a lucky star,” says Schwartz, who, like Pirrello and Moscou, has lived at the Atria for about two years. “I never expected such grandeur!” The celebration was a long time coming—in more ways than one. The center’s residents had been restricted to lockdown for more than a year during the pandemic; the centennial event was only possible once they—along with their family and friends had received the COVID-19 vaccine. “When we were…

Last DIY Project It was probably changing a lock on a door or fixing a sink or something. It’s pretty easy. I think the majority of people just assume that they can’t do it and just call somebody. Last Moment of Nostalgia The day before yesterday, going to Magic Mountain with my [family] was nostalgic. Just amusement parks and the terror of getting on a roller coaster and going, “Why did I say yes to this?!” Last Moment of Gratitude They come all the time. I didn’t grow up like this; we weren’t destitute, but we didn’t have a lot. The biggest gratitude is to still be close with my family and friends that I’ve had for 30 years. Last Injury Why would you want to take me back…

Nearly a month after Flip or Flop star Christina Haack and her ex, British Wheeler Dealers and Master Mechanic host Ant Anstead, finalized their divorce, the former pair, who share son Hudson, 1, both have taken their respective new romances public. Anstead, 42, began dating two-time Academy Award winner Renée Zellweger, 52, in late June, and the couple confirmed their relationship when they were spotted holding hands during a romantic outing on July 5. Three days later, Haack, 38, revealed on Instagram that she had been secretly dating Realtor Joshua Hall for several months. “When we met this past spring, the synchronicities hit us so hard and fast they were impossible to ignore,” Haack wrote in a July 8 post. “I felt immediately crazy protective over him and wanted…

The 39-year-old actress, producer and mom to sons Silas, 6, and Phineas, 11 months, with husband Justin Timberlake, 40, has launched Kinderfarms, a new wellness brand specializing in all-natural products. What was most important to you when you decided to do this? Cofounder Jeremy Adams and I wanted to create an opportunity for parents to make a different choice for their kids. And to be able to say, “I really trust that the ingredients in these products are effective and nontoxic.” How did you navigate life this past year through the pandemic? Some of the pod schools we were involved in were a huge support. It was really helpful for my kids to have some small, safe social circle, and I didn’t go crazy. That, and probably white wine. Did…

Standing onstage at New York City’s Pier 17 while accepting her Best Female Athlete ESPY Award on July 10, Naomi Osaka couldn’t stop smiling. Still, the events that preceded the happy achievement weren’t far from the tennis phenom’s mind, as she told the audience: “This year, it’s been really tough for a lot of us.” Osaka, 23, withdrew from the French Open on May 31, a day after being fined $15,000 for skipping media requirements during the Paris-based major tournament in order to preserve her mental health; that same day she revealed in an Instagram message that she’s grappled with “long bouts of depression” since her stunning singles victory at the 2018 U.S. Open. On June 17 her agent announced Osaka’s decision to skip Wimbledon amid a flurry of headlines.…

On Schitt’s Creek you costarred alongside your dad, Eugene Levy, and your brother Dan. Is it strange not working with them now? It’s weird! I was so used to seeing a family member, if not two family members. We’re still very close. Why’d you switch from a sitcom to a scary show? To be a part of some type of horror genre—it’s been a dream of mine. Has it lived up to your expectations? With so many visual effects, it was seeing a lot of things that weren’t actually in front of me, definitely my inner-child fantasies just letting my imagination run wild.…

What’s that been like for you? It’s something I’ve wanted to do for years.

Teen Makes History As the First Black American Winner of the Scripps National Spelling Bee LAKE BUENA VISTA, FLA. With one seven-letter word—“murraya,” a genus of flowering citrus plants—14-year-old Zaila Avant-garde took home the crown at this year’s Scripps National Spelling Bee on July 8, becoming the first Black American champion in the contest’s 96-year history. “It felt really good to win because I have been working on it for, like, two years,” said Avant-garde, who had also competed in the Scripps Bee in 2019, when she placed 370th. “I felt like in the moment I snapped out of a surreal dream.” But spelling isn’t Avant-garde’s only talent: The eighth grader from Harvey, La., is also a basketball prodigy who holds three Guinness World Records, for dribbling, bouncing and juggling…

Dawn breaks over Paris on July 3, 1971. Jim Morrison isn’t in his bed. Pamela Courson, his 24-year-old “cosmic mate,” calls out to him, but there’s no answer. She finds her love reclining in the bathtub. His head is tilted back, eyes closed, with a sly grin across his handsome face. She thinks it’s a prank. Then she sees the blood trickling from his nostril, tinting the water a light pink. Morrison—the leather-clad electric shaman who preached his poetry to millions as the front man for the psychedelic rock band the Doors—was dead at 27. “We didn’t think he’d make it to 30,” the band’s former manager Bill Siddons says now. “He did everything to excess.” Fifty years later, questions about his untimely end still linger. A medical examiner ruled…
