I just thought, 'This woman feels underserved, under recognized, and needs to be reflected.' Watts created Stripes Beauty to address the gap in menopause-specific beauty products, emphasizing that her mission extends beyond vanity to providing genuine support and recognition for women navigating perimenopause and menopause symptoms.

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground.
Despite having been seen hundreds, thousands of times together in photographs, at events and on red carpets, Dakota and Elle Fanning have never shared time on-screen. They're actresses. They're sisters. They're stars who have been nominated for elite awards and who have worked with the best performers and directors in the world.

In a recent interview with Interview magazine, Goldberg opened up about her solo life, which she happens to genuinely love. So much, in fact, that she says she plans to stay single because, as she put it, "in the last 25 years, I recognized that not everybody's cut out to be in a relationship." She continued, revealing that she doesn't ever "want to live with anybody," echoing her 2016 statement to The New York Times when she famously said "I don't want somebody in my house!"
Theron is sipping kombucha. The ostensible reason for our conversation, via video call this winter afternoon, is to discuss 2026. In the film Apex the Academy Award-winning actor will play Sasha, a rock climber who is menaced, in the badlands of Australia, by two unrelenting forces: the wily hunter character (Taron Egerton) and her own enormous grief. Sasha is a modern woman: stubborn, powerful, individualistic, solitary.
As it goes, her eventual co-star Hugh Jackman saw Hudson performing and chatting on "CBS Sunday Morning" in 2024, where the actress and Oscar nominee was promoting her soon-to-be-released solo album, "Glorious." Jackman, who was already on board to star as Mike Sardina in Craig Brewer's fact-based film, was so taken by Hudson's energy (and singing!) that he immediately texted Brewer that he had found their Claire.
After dozens of films over a storied six-decade career, Jodie Foster is trying something new, playing the lead role in a French film for the very first time. There's hardly a trace of an American accent in Foster's turn as Parisian therapist Lilian Steiner in A Private Life (Vie privee) and she appears to be very much at home. The character she plays is an American woman who built her career in France.
Killarney-born Buckley collected the award for best actress for the historical drama Hamnet. During her speech she thanked director Chloe Zhao and co-stars Paul Mescal and Emily Watson, who she called her "north star". "Chloe Zhao, you have reminded me of the power of telling a story and the journey that you can go on to touch the deepest parts of what it is to be alive, thank you," she said.
Listen to the spectacular nonchalance with which she says, "Fine, I'll fuck you, but you have to bring someone who will open your ass for me." Or when she passes Elliot off to an out-of-town associate, with a "Screw her real good, but don't let her penetrate you, she's not that close a friend." Erika's a great, outsize character, and she's also an avatar for Araki's many gleeful provocations.
