Lindsey Vonn Has Message For Everyone About Her Racy Outfit
Skiing legend Lindsey Vonn turned plenty of heads at the ESPYs award show yesterday. But while most people absolutely loved her dark dress that concealed very little, Vonn had a message for those who didn't.
There was a slight issue with Vonn's outfit during the red carpet event as a gust of wind lifted the front of the dress and exposed part of her underwear for the cameras. Aside from a brief moment of embarrassment, everything else went fine.
Taking to Instagram on Thursday, Vonn declared that her look represented "strong and feminine." She declared that it "doesn't have to be one or the other" and joked that she doesn't skip leg day either.
"Strong and feminine… Doesn't have to be one or the other. We can be both 💃🏼💪🏻 just be you.And no…. I didn't skip leg day 😉," she wrote.
Vonn certainly struggled to find any haters in her own Instagram comments. Just about all of the 700-plus responses have been fans telling her how amazing she looked at the ESPYs:
"The most beautiful skier around the world," one user replied.
"Okay, next level fits," wrote another.
"Lindsey is a total Goddess," a third wrote.
"Ate and left no crumbs."
"It's the small, little rays of sunshine that get me through the day."
"That dress! And of course the lovely lady wearing it!"
Vonn was at the ESPYs in Los Angeles after being nominated for Best Comeback. She returned to competitive skiing in 2024 after retiring back in 2019 due to knee injuries.
In March, Vonn reached the podium in a World Cup event for her first time in seven years after coming in second in the super-G at the season finals in Idaho.
However, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley would go on to win the award.Lindsey Vonn Has Message For Everyone About Her Racy Outfit first appeared on The Spun on Jul 17, 2025

USDA Weaponizes Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson's ‘Marriage Story' Fight to Scare Wolves
Noah Baumbach wanted to challenge audiences with Marriage Story, making them sit in the discomfort and tension of a relationship falling apart. He probably didn't know that his audience was going to be wolves, though. According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, the famous fight scene between Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson from Baumbach's award-winning drama is just one tool the United States Department of Agriculture has started to use in an effort to scare the growing wolf (and hungry) population in Yellowstone National Park. Here's the deal: After Yellowstone opened in the late 1800s, ranchers near the park started complaining that the wolf population was feasting on their cattle. Viewed as a threat to the food supply and humans, the US Fish and Wildlife Service set out to cull the population, and it effectively drove gray wolves into local extinction and ultimately ended up on the endangered species list. From the 1920s on, wolves were rarely seen in the park or its surrounding areas. That was, as it turns out, not great. The elk population skyrocketed as a result. Coyotes thrived in their absence, too, which did major damage to the antelope population. So in 1995, armed with decades of data and a significantly better understanding of natural predator-prey ecology, an effort was finally made to reintroduce the wolves to the park. That has gone great, both for the parks and the wolves. It has restored balance to the ecosystem, and there have been some incredible cascading effects, like the first bloom of a new generation of aspen trees in over 80 years and a major resurgence of beavers, which had been pushed to the brink of vanishing from the park. The wolves have done so well, in fact, that we're back to the starting point of this whole cycle. Ranchers are once again frustrated by the gray wolves doing a number on their cattle. Because the wolves are still considered an endangered species, the farmers can't kill them. So the USDA has opted to employ some novel techniques with the aim of scaring the wolves away. That includes using drones armed with speakers to blare loud noises. On the playlist, per the Wall Street Journal, is AC/DC's 'Thunderstruck,' the sounds of fireworks and gunshots, and the aforementioned argument from Marriage Story. 'I need the wolves to respond and know that, hey, humans are bad,' Paul Wolf, a USDA district supervisor in Oregon, told the outlet. It works… as long as the wolves don't get their paws on the drones. According to WSJ, the drones were deployed in southern Oregon after 11 cows were taken down by wolves over a 20-day period. Just two were killed over the next 85 with the drones on patrol. But the wolves have also been seen play-bowing to the drones and, when the drones go down, the wolves tear them up. Maybe they're just big fans of Adam Driver.

THE SANDMAN Showrunner Reveals a BATMAN Cameo Was "Briefly" on the Table for Series Finale — GeekTyrant
It turns out The Sandman almost had a Dark Knight surprise for fans in its series finale. Allan Heinberg, the co-creator and showrunner of the Netflix series, recently revealed that a Batman cameo was 'briefly' considered as the show reached its emotional end. Anyone familiar with Neil Gaiman's original comic run knows The Sandman is rooted in the main DC Universe, especially early on. The comics featured appearances from characters like Martian Manhunter, Mister Miracle, and even Batman, who shows up at Morpheus' funeral in The Wake . While the Netflix adaptation opted to keep those DC ties subtle, like the scene with Jed's DC Comics action figures, the creative team still toyed with the idea of bringing Gotham's brooding vigilante into the finale. Heinberg shared: 'We talked about, 'Does Robert Pattinson want to come to the funeral?' Briefly, we did discuss that, but only briefly.' That would've been one hell of a surprising moment. Even just a shadowy glimpse among the mourners would've sent fans into a frenzy. In the comic version, Batman is seen interacting with characters like Clark Kent at the wake. Speaking of Superman, the recently released bonus episode, Death: The High Cost of Living , throws in several nods to the Man of Steel, who happens to be Sexton's favorite hero in the original comic. Heinberg explained how that came together, and whether it had anything to do with the timing of James Gunn's new Superman movie: 'I didn't! I don't even know if James Gunn watches the show, but I hope so. No, it was that I tried to work in as many DC references as I can. It was one of those things where Colin (Morgan) really wanted to show the, not arrested side of Sexton, but playful side of Sexton. 'That this is somebody who actually, prior to this moment, has a lot of joy and a lot of idealism and he's trying to be out there and, as a climate emergency reporter for The Guardian, he's trying to be a superhero. And he's feeling like he's failing every time he turns around. 'So because we meet him at such a low point, we wanted to really show the audience, this is not someone who's usually like this, this is someone with big ideals and big dreams and who wants to be a hero. And Superman is the cleanest. 'And I've been putting DC Comics stuff into everything I've written for as long as I can remember. So it was a very natural thing to go to Superman.' Even without a Batman cameo, The Sandman finale still delivered a powerful closing chapter that felt true to the source material while charting its own course. What did you think of the final season? Did you catch all the DC references in the bonus episode?
