The ensemble included a midi-length turtleneck sweater dress, which she cinched at her waist via a warm caramel-toned leather belt. To keep warm, she coordinated in a sandy-colored wool overcoat.

The midterms are coming quickly, and this year, there’s a lot at stake: It’s the first nationwide election day since President Joe Biden was voted into office, and it will ultimately decide which party is in charge of the U.S. House and Senate, as well as who will lead a number of impactful local offices. Our new officials will then be tasked with working on dire issues like the economy, climate change, and the future of abortion access—and who’s sitting in office could make the difference between forward momentum or...

Lisa Ann Walter has the kind of energy that feels like a warm hug. It’s evident even from the opposite end of a Zoom call, as she calls me “hun” in her cozy gray sweater and jokes about her kids being unimpressed with her recent success. For the better part of the last three decades, the multi-hyphenate, who began her career in stand-up comedy, has created and produced her own shows and honed her craft as a character actor in Bruce Almighty, Shall We Dance? and War of the Worlds....

Details from sources about Gigi Hadid and Leonardo DiCaprio's reported causal romance have been scarce lately, but Page Six reports the two are still spending time together—or did over Halloween weekend, anyway. A source told the outlet that Hadid and DiCaprio arrived at Circoloco’s Halloween party with Bella Hadid, Irina Shayk, and art dealer Helly Nahmad. The fête was thrown at Brooklyn Navy Yard, and the group arrived via party bus because why not? DiCaprio leaned into his Shy Leo tendencies, though.“Leo wore a mask most of the night unless...

“Sometimes I joke about how I wish the character wasn't named Ramy,” Ramy Youssef says with a smile over Zoom from his new home in New York. He’s just moved in and took a few moments to work out the best place to sit for Wi-Fi so he can chat with ELLE.com about season 3 of his self-titled comedy series. “But I will say, the thing that I do like about it, is that I’m on the hook.”Given the polarizing subject matter of this latest season of Ramy, ranging from...

Spoilers for Severance season 1 ahead. It's fitting that, in this era of return-to-office fatigue, mass resignations, “quiet quitting,” and declining professional ambition, a show about the oddities and horrors of work life would captivate us most. Apple TV+'s Severance took the world by storm after premiering in February, garnering critical acclaim, a growing fandom, and 14 Emmy nominations. But the sci fi workplace drama from creator/writer Dan Erickson and director/executive producer Ben Stiller wowed us not only for its cultural relevance, but also for its compelling premise and A-list...

Getting an EGOT — an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony award — is not something that is in the reach of every performer. The people most likely to do it are musicians, since regular actors rarely win Grammys, even the award-winning ones. One person who is very close to the full EGOT is Adele. The musical artist has an Emmy, an Oscar, and 15 Grammys. But she claims she will never win a Tony. The musical artist attended a fan event to celebrate the release of her “I Drink Wine”...

The 2012 film adaptation of the musical Les Miserables had a lot of big stars, but not Taylor Swift, though that apparently could have happened. She auditioned to play a role, but according to her it was a “nightmare” experience. Swift recounted the moment while on an episode of The Graham Norton Show with actor Eddie Redmayne. Redmayne was her scene partner in her audition and she was so embarrassed by how things unfolded in front of him.“Basically, I was up for two roles … I had the look of...

When did Taylor Swift become Taylor Swift? It’s not an easy question to answer. Swift is the consummate skin-shedder, forever toeing the line between self-expression and self-creation. In this sense, she’s also the consummate millennial: taught from youth to craft a persona, only for human emotion to blow it up. The difference is Swift, unlike so many her age, seems to thrive on this cycle. As much brand as flesh and blood, as much an inventor as historian (and, lately, re-inventor), Swift typically understands how she’ll be perceived better than...
