Renée Rapp's two-day NYC pop-up promises exclusive merch this week
Hard to believe, but it was only six years ago that Rapp hit the Broadway stage as a replacement Regina George in the Mean Girls musical, a role she went on to repeat for the movie adaptation. Now, Rapp has become a massive deal on her own, with her hugely successful pop career and previous album, 2023's Snow Angel.
Curated by Complex, the two‑day BITE ME pop‑up is unmissable for Rapp fans. With the album out August 1, celebrate new music from the Sex Lives of College Girls star with fellow fans at 620 Broadway from 11am to 7pm, July 31 and August 1.
Think: exclusive collabs, album-specific merch, a special-edition color vinyl and collector GAS Trading Cards—all only available for 48 hours. The merch drop includes graphic‑heavy tees and cozy hoodies with Rapp's signature pop‑punk flair. And as if a 48-hour window wasn't exclusive enough, a free RSVP doesn't guarantee entry.
Hardcore fans can roll right from the pop-up on August 1 to Rapp's album release concert at Warsaw at 7pm, her last performance in New York City until she heads to Madison Square Garden on September 29 and Barclays Center on October 1 on her BITE ME tour. That tour—with special guests Syd and Ravyn Lenae—officially launches in Morrison, Colorado, on September 23.
Just over a month and 17 stops later, the tour concludes in Charlotte, North Carolina, on October 29.
Until the tour officially kicks off, however, you can stream BITE ME's lead single, "Leave Me Alone," to your heart's content. It's not much longer until we'll have a full album of Rapp tracks to spend the rest of the summer with. Or, as she wrote on Instagram, "the soundtrack to the last two years of my life."

Lindsay Lohan reveals what she would have done differently during her rollercoaster years in Hollywood
Lindsay Lohan has revealed what she would have done differently during her rollercoaster years in Hollywood after her major career comeback. The actress, 39, rose to fame as a child star and went on to nab major roles throughout her teenage years, including in 2003's Freaky Friday and Mean Girls. However, she then faced widely publicized struggles, including multiple arrests for DUI, theft, and cocaine possession, as well as several stints in rehab that sidelined her Hollywood career. Now, as she returns to screen with the Freaky Friday sequel, Lindsay has revealed that she would say 'no' a lot more if she could go back and do it all again. She told The Sun: 'I was always such a ''yes'' person to my agents and everyone that no one ever really took the time to ask me, ''Do you wanna chill for a second?'' 'And if I knew then what I know now, I'd definitely have used the word ''no'' a lot more.' Lindsay (pictured in 2003) faced widely publicized struggles, including multiple arrests for DUI, theft, and cocaine possession, as well as several stints in rehab that sidelined her career Lindsay went from being America's sweetheart as a Disney star to experiencing many turbulent years in the public eye. She spent years battling addiction - leading to her own run-ins with the law, as well as numerous rehab visits. It began to affect her career and she was thrown off movie sets, kicked out of roles, and forced to cancel appearances, casting doubt on whether her career would ever recover. After a string of critically-panned roles, she decided to pursue other endeavours instead, and he opened a nightclub in Athens, Greece, in 2016, followed by a successful beach resort on the Greek island Mykonos. Around that time, she also decided to give up her life in Hollywood and relocate to Dubai, which she called a 'fresh start' to Emirates Women in a 2018 interview. 'Moving here was a fresh start,' she said. 'You hear more about real current events rather than celebrity gossip, which I really appreciate.' The former child star added that her lifestyle in Dubai was quite the opposite of that in LA, and that she was thoroughly enjoying stepping away from the spotlight to live a 'normal life'. Alongside her move to the Middle East, Lindsay also tied the knot with financier Bader Shammas, and they welcomed their first child together last year. In 2022, Lindsay finally kickstarted her return to acting with her role in Falling For Christmas. It was then revealed she'd signed a new deal with Netflix to star in two more films for the streaming service. 'We're so happy with our collaboration with Lindsay to date, and we're thrilled to continue our partnership with her,' Netflix's Director of Independent Film Christina Rogers said. 'We look forward to bringing more of her films to our members around the world.' The first in Lindsay's two-picture deal, Irish Wish, hit Netflix earlier last year, and saw her star opposite English actor Ed Speleers and Alexander Vlahos. The film saw Lindsay star as Maddie, a book editor whose world crumbles when her secret crush gets engaged to her closest friend. After reluctantly accepting the role of bridesmaid for the wedding in Ireland, Maddie soon realizes her heart's true desire lies elsewhere. While the film earned negative reviews from critics, and was described as 'a scattering of rom-com cliches,' Variety noted that Lindsay 'hasn't lost her ability to light up a scene'. Lindsay's sequel to Freaky Friday, called Freakier Friday, is also hitting screens on August 8, with excitement building up for the long-awaited release. She has reunited on screen with Jamie-Lee Curtis, who played her on-screen mother, for the sequel, more than 20 years after the original was filmed.

Inside Lindsay Lohan's transformation from wild child to married mum as she reveals what she would do differently
SHE is the Hollywood wild thing who notched up five trips to rehab, 20 court appearances and one 84-minute jail stretch. Now former Disney child star Lindsay Lohan, 39, insists that if she could turn back the clock she would have done things differently. 4 4 4 She said: 'I was always such a 'yes' person to my agents and everyone that no one ever really took the time to ask me, 'Do you wanna chill for a second?' 'And if I knew then what I know now, I'd definitely have used the word 'no' a lot more.' Over a six-year period, she was arrested a number of times for drink and drug offences. But the star's life nowadays could not be more different from her hellraising years in Hollywood. She turned teetotal and removed herself from bad influences in 2014 by moving to Dubai, where she still lives. In 2022 she married Kuwaiti financier Bader Shammas, 38, and the following year gave birth to their son Luai. Showbiz feuds Lindsay now believes her younger self would be 'very proud of the mother and wife that I am today' and added: 'I love it so much. I'm obsessed with my kid. 'The other day I said, 'Luai, don't do that — not a good idea', and now he goes, 'Luai, don't do that . . . ' He mocks me. 'If my husband's like, 'No, Luai', then he listens. But for me, it's like he laughs at me. But I'm fine with it. I love every second.' Despite being an 'It Girl' of the Noughties, starring in 2004 high school comedy Mean Girls at the age of 18, she jokes she is now just an embarrassing mum who struggles to keep up with Gen Z slang. Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis delight fans as they finally reunite for epic Freakier Friday trailer Lindsay said: 'I don't know any cool new words except for 'rizz' [meaning charisma]. 'But I would probably say it in the wrong context, like, 'Yeah. That was a rizz day'.' Stormy love life Lindsay first found the limelight aged just three, in fashion ads for Calvin Klein Kids and Abercrombie Kids. After a stint in US soap Another World aged ten, she landed her big break two years later in Disney film The Parent Trap. Roles in teen comedy films followed — Disney hit Freaky Friday in 2003, alongside Jamie Lee Curtis, then Mean Girls — as she earned three MTV Movie and four Teen Choice Awards. 4 By now she seemed unstoppable — and in 2004 a dabble in music saw her single Rumors reach No6 in the UK. But in her early twenties, her private life and partying became more notable than her acting. She became a fixture in LA's nightclubs and made headlines for all the wrong reasons, including showbiz feuds and a stormy love life. She had failed flings with US rapper Aaron Carter, English singer-songwriter Samantha Ronson and Brit rugby hunk Danny Cipriani. In 2007 she was sent to rehab after a conviction for driving under the influence and possession of cocaine. There were multiple further arrests over the next four years for violation of probation orders and other offences — plus several stints in rehab. But then, in a bid to finally clean up her act for good, Lindsay left behind her old haunts to move to the Middle East. She said: 'I get the privacy, I get the peace, the space. I don't have to worry — I feel safe.' She has also rebuilt her career with a series of films for Netflix including two festive hits — 2022 romance Falling For Christmas, and last year's Our Little Secret and comedy Irish Wish. Jamie and I have remained in close contact over the past two decades. She's a very important person in my life. Lindsay Lohan Last year she also had a cameo in a remake of Mean Girls, and she has been welcomed back to Disney, reprising her role opposite Jamie Lee Curtis in Freakier Friday, a sequel to Freaky Friday that hits UK cinemas next week. Lindsay said: 'Jamie and I have remained in close contact over the past two decades. She's a very important person in my life. 'Working with her again felt like it was yesterday.' But despite her career revival, she puts her son first when she is working. She said: 'Time manage-ment is a big part of it, like the timing of when they're going to shoot the film and how it's going to work out for my son. 'That's a big deal because he comes first in my life.' She also hopes to revive her music career — and hints at a new release soon. Lindsay said: 'I love making music, it's just the time has to be right. I have to have a certain amount of downtime to discover what story I want to tell through my music again.' But unlike her old self she is in no hurry to impress. She said: 'There's no need to rush. Because my life was so busy then, I never took the time to pause.'

Lindsay Lohan's Press Tour Is A Love Letter To Her Early Roles
If your early 2000s DVD collection included The Devil Wears Prada , Bend It Like Beckham and My Best Friend's Wedding , you'll be pleased to know they're all in various stages of reboot. Now, the long awaited Freaky Friday sequel ( Freakier Friday ) is officially joining the lineup - and Lindsay Lohan is already bringing the throwbacks. ©Lindsay Lohan Freaky Friday UK Premiere, Getty Images While doing UK press for the film on July 31, Lohan hit the red carpet in a custom Ludovic de Saint Sernin gown that instantly caught the eye of loyal fans. The dress - a sheer lavender metal mesh design covered in golden Swarovski crystals was a reimagining of the one she wore in Freaky Friday's final wedding scene, originally designed by Mandalay. Whilst the riff off was covered in gems, the original featured a delicate lace trimmed camisole top and matching bias-cut skirt. Ludovic de Saint Sernin took to Instagram to say, 'I can't believe I'm actually writing this caption right now. I've been dreaming and manifesting this moment for nearly 20 years. And the best part of it all is that I got to see it with my own eyes! What an incredible privilege to be a creative and to have the opportunity to make your teenage dreams come true. I feel overwhelmed with joy and love right now. It's a full-circle moment for me.' The archival nod didn't stop at the dress. Lohan carried a miniature guitar-shaped bag by Judith Leiber, a playful wink to her character Anna's band girl past. Where the original character wore hers on a strap, Lohan clutched this one like a clutch, turning teenage angst into red carpet moment. She finished the look with simple Manolo Blahnik heels which gave the look a more grown up feel. The Mean Girls star has been on a full nostalgia streak lately. Earlier this week, she paid tribute to another one of her iconic roles - this time from her film debut, The Parent Trap . Appearing on Good Morning America on July 28, Lohan wore a butter yellow two piece set from Balmain's pre-spring 2026 collection by Olivier Rousteing. The look featured a cropped tweed jacket in a white and black plaid and a matching mini skirt. It's safe to say Lindsay Lohan's press tour is a love letter to her early roles. Freakier Friday will be out in cinemas on the August 8th. [ Renee Washington ]{href=' } , Grazia's digital fashion and beauty writer, lives online.
