A Different World Star Cree Summer looks unrecognizable on recent outing
On Sunday, the actress, 55, who has voiced over 100 animated characters in her illustrious career, enjoyed an outing at a local flea market with her friend.
She was seen towing around her vintage finds in a foldable shopping cart on wheels while strolling around the open-air market and hunting for goods to take home.
During her outing, she showcased her fun and eclectic style in a colorful, summer-ready outfit featuring cut-off denim shorts and an oversize graphic T-shirt on top.
Paired with the effortlessly stylish look, she sported her signature, tall hat and yellow-tinted sunglasses paired with a red bandana tied around her neck.
The Rugrats voice actress tied her raven black tresses in two pigtail braids and appeared to be wearing little to no makeup for her outing.

She accessorized with a brown leather belt with a gold, leaf buckle paired with layers of chunky, matching bangles.
She completed her look with knee-high socks paired with motorcycle boots.
Summer recently got candid about her life earlier this month about life after divorce after separating from her now-ex Angelo Pullen.
She was previously married to the film producer for nine years from 2013 and 2022.
She said that during their decade-long marriage, she lost her sex drive as she opened up about feelings of loneliness and love in an Sandra Rose article, which was published on May 2.
Summer, who is known for her iconic role as Freddie Brooks on A Different World, said that that she is post-menopause and emotionally liberated, her sexuality has resurged.
She said that she is now excited by the idea of initiating romance and pursuing someone in a way she has never done before in the past.
'I don't think I've ever approached a man. I've never asked a man out. I would love to have a husband and a real partner,' she said.
'Someone that we could get excited about the trials and the tribulations in life together,' she continued. 'That would be great.'
She compared the end of her marriage to an 'old car' as she shared her thoughts about staying in relationships too long because of loneliness.
'Who the f*** wants to separate and divorce? But sometimes that old car ain't gon' run anymore... It's run its f***ing course, literally.'
She continued: 'I think loneliness is probably the greatest culprit to get me into things where I could've probably looked at it and go, "I know that ain't gon' work. But he drives a really nice car..."'
She also talked about embracing aging as she acknowledged feeling unseen as an older woman.

'You do become a little more invisible the older you get as a woman, unfortunately. I spent a lot of my time being hemmed up in vanity, and now that I really can't be, I'm, you know, I'm in the second half of my life, and now I don't care so much about what it looks like. But it's hard in this town.'
She also shared her thoughts about being a 55-year-old woman living in a city like Los Angeles.
'This is not a place where I have the opportunity. I don't get asked out on a lot of dates. I never get asked out on dates. I don't know if it's being 55 in Los Angeles, or if it's just a strange town, you know? It's a weird, counterintuitive feeling, because I actually feel more beautiful now than I have ever felt before,' she said.
'I feel like I've come into my face. I've come into my body. I've really come into my sense of style. So it's weird to not be seen as much.'

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce superfans name baby after power couple... and the mashup is going viral
When Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce first got together, fans came up with several combinations of their names, such as Tayvis, Traylor or Swelce, as a moniker for the couple. Now, a set of new parents has taken it one step further and revealed they've given their baby a name that salutes the couple. On Friday, Liberty Hospital at the University of Kansas revealed a sweet photo of a newborn on its Facebook page. The tyke was swaddled in a white blanket with a big yellow bow on her head, lying next to a red Kansas City Chiefs jersey with the name Kelce on it. A sign just above the infant's head featured a cartoon of Swift in cowboy boots and announced her name would be Kelce Taylor. ''We are so excited to announce the birth of the youngest Swiftie and newest member of The Kansas City Chiefs Red Kingdom,' the hospital wrote in the caption. 'Kelce Taylor is officially in her newborn era.' 'Send this to the podcast. I'm sure Travis would be honored,' suggested one commenter. One mom-to-be thought it was a great idea. 'We're having a girl and her surname will be Taylor, I wondering if I can convince my partner to name her Kelce lol,' she said. 'As the mother to a child named Patrick (born 02-02-2020 when we won the first Super Bowl) I support this SO much! And your kiddo will have SUCH a fun name story to tell. I know mine does!!!' A young woman named Kelsey Taylor called it the 'Best name around ❤️.' 'She's going to grow up and be into death metal and hate football lol,' joked another. 'Gosh I hope Travis and Taylor never break up,' wrote one cautious fan. That doesn't seem to be a big concern at the time. Saturday was the two year anniversary of Kelce sharing how he had failed to get a friendship bracelet to Swift, sparking their eventual romance Kelce, 35, shared several snaps of the adventures he and Swift, 35, have gotten up to so far this year. 'Had some adventures this offseason, kept it 100%.' he wrote next to the carousel that not only included the couple but their families including Swift's brother Austin, along with Kelce's mom Donna and brother Jason. Saturday was the second anniversary of the day the tight end revealed he had been unable to give Swift a friendship bracelet with his name and phone number on it at one of her concerts. 'Two years ago today, anyone got an update?' The New Heights podcast tweeted on X. while reposting the original video.

Marcia Hines: ‘The strangest thing I've done for love? Believe the lie'
You grew up with Donna Summer, as you were best friends with her little sister Linda. Is it true you two used to sneak into Donna's bedroom? It's true, I can't lie! She was older than us and any teenage girl knows that a teenager that's older than you is cooler than you. I don't think we ever read her diary or anything. But we wanted to see what she was wearing and try her clothes on. We'd try to hang them up tidy so she didn't know we had been in there. But she'd always know. She didn't like it. But that's what little sisters do! They annoy, you know? She was just so sophisticated and cool compared to us. Donna has passed, but she did get in touch with me and say how proud she was of my accomplishments and congratulations, which was a really nice thing. Is it true that you are distantly related to both Grace Jones and Colin Powell? Absolutely. They're my cousins. Grace is my second cousin and Colin would have been second or third. Grace was brought up in England and I was brought up in Boston, but I did meet up with her brother, Noel Jones, who has got the biggest black American church in LA. I actually went to church with him and one of the guys from the Rockmelons. He said, 'You look like Grace' – well actually, he said, in West Indian terms, he said, 'You favour Grace.' I didn't get to know Colin, but he was so way up in politics, it would have been very difficult to get to him. What's the best piece of advice you have ever received? Stay humble, be gracious, be grateful. And do unto others, as you have them do unto you. I was brought up very well – you learn those teachings as a kid, and it's important to put them into practice when you grow older. What are you secretly really good at? Mosaics! It's always been my hobby. I was taught that if you're artistic as a performer, you're usually artistic with your hands as well. You know that fantastic actor in Silence of the Lambs – Anthony Hopkins! He's an incredible artist. Tony Bennett too. And Joni Mitchell is a fine artist. It's messy, but I do like it. If someone's getting married, or if someone's going moving into a new home, I'll make something for them. It's a nice thing to give something of yourself that you've had to think about. I love to break dishes. What is the strangest thing you've done for love? Believe the lie. [laughs] What's been your most memorable interaction with a fan? There's so many of them. I adore my fans. If it wasn't for my fans, I wouldn't be able to live the dream that I'm living. So many people tell me really moving things – like someone was actually dying and they insisted they played my music as they died. That's big. I hear some incredible stories, because I do a meet and greet with my audience at the end of my shows. It's so touching, you know? One lady told me, 'That song encouraged me to leave my husband.' I was like, 'Well, I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing, but I'm so pleased I could help.' Do you have a nemesis? No. Well, hang on, hang on. Not that I know of, right? I hope not. You can't like everybody and everybody can't like you, but you can meet in the middle of all that madness. If you've got a nemesis, you probably made it. What's the oldest thing you own, and why do you still have it? My Bible, which I wrote in when I was about seven. I used to have a teddy bear that I had when I was a kid, and we put it into a teddy bear exhibition, and someone pinched it. But I still have my Bible. Sign up to Saved for Later Catch up on the fun stuff with Guardian Australia's culture and lifestyle rundown of pop culture, trends and tips after newsletter promotion What's the most chaotic thing that has ever happened to you while on stage? I fell! This was back in the 1970s – I did a kick, and my foot went out from under me. So I stood up and did it again to make it look like a dance step. Also, one of the scariest things that ever happened to me was when I was doing Jesus Christ Superstar. It was almost time to go on stage to sing I Don't Know How to Love Him. Someone spoke to me about something and it disturbed me greatly so when I walked on stage, I blanked. It is scary when you blank. The conductor, Patrick Flynn, was a genius – he saw that I had lost my way, and I don't know where he got a piece of paper and a Texta, but he wrote down a prompt and held it up in the orchestra pit for me. It's not an unusual occurrence to forget lyrics. You do what you can not to. But when it's happening, a millisecond feels like an hour. What's been your biggest fashion crime to date? Platform shoes. It's all relative, isn't it – everything old is new again. I'm seeing all these rehashed hippies wearing clothes that I used to wear. Platforms are back, as are flared trousers and baggy clothes. When I was growing up, midriff was everything –that is back too. Do you have any pets, what are their names and what are their nicknames? I have a dog by the name of Dalley. He's a cavoodle. I also have a cat called Sistah and I have just got a new puppy called Brotha. So I always have a sister and brother in the house! Which book, album or film do you always return to, and why? Out on a Limb by Shirley MacLaine. That really was an incredible thing to read and it's still a very good book. It talks about being a spiritual person, and some of the things that she went through and expressing herself as a spiritual person when people thought she was mad. She's anything but! I don't know where we live as performers – we live someplace else. We can live in amongst this, but we live someplace else and especially when you've got a gift such as she has. I just really like Shirley. Marcia Hines' Marcia Sings Summer tour with Casey Donovan is heading around Australia in October; see here for dates. Her song You (Teddy Cream Remix) is out now (Sony Music Australia)

Millionaire Sacha's fat jab jibe is a kick in the abs to normal people struggling with obesity
SACHA Baron Cohen admits he paid a personal trainer 'a lot of money' to get the kind of body that your regular middle-aged man could only dream of. And why wouldn't he? He is already a multi-millionaire and he is even being paid to get fit for his new Marvel role — nice work if you can get it. 7 7 Which is why his comment about skinny jabs seemed so cheap and sneering. Alongside an Instagram post of his new ripped, oiled, hairless torso he wrote: 'Some celebs use Ozempic and some use private chefs, others use personal trainers. I did all three.' Within hours his aides admitted he was joking about the Ozempic. Presumably before the personal trainer sued for reputational damage — and mainly because it is just not funny. By laughing at celebrities who use Ozempic he has also looked down his nose at all those who have turned to the jabs to lose weight. We don't all have the means to enjoy a private chef or personal trainer, Sacha. Fat-shaming jokes hurt, no matter what their form. And skinny jabs are no laughing matter for those who have struggled with obesity for years. Their choice shouldn't be made fun of. Mocking them isn't big or clever. Sacha's smug comments insinuate that they are somehow cheating too. But who cares? If it works, it works. Skinny jabs such as Mounjaro and Ozempic have transformed lives. Yes, some people have cheated the system to buy the medication privately without a prescription but, mostly, people use it as a last resort to tackle health problems associated with obesity. There is now a guessing game of 'who has and hasn't' used it when people lose weight because often they are too embarrassed or ashamed to admit it because of people like Sacha. He was trying to be funny, but his Ozempic comment was unnecessary. There was no guessing game in his transformation — the magazine detailed exactly how he got in shape — and this is a man who has clearly never struggled with his weight either. Sacha is right, though, when he says 'some celebs use Ozempic'. Oprah Winfrey says skinny jabs not only helped transform her weight but her mental health too after years of suffering because comedians would poke fun at her figure. Deliberate dig Now comedian Sacha is poking fun at countless others for how they deal with their weight problems, too. Robbie Williams said that the skinny drugs are like a 'miracle' for him and helped his mental health, while Whoopi Goldberg may have saved her life with them after peaking at a deadly 21st. I admire them all for speaking out and telling the truth. And there is actress Rebel Wilson, who admitted she used Ozempic as part of an overhaul for her health. Her public spat with Sacha is so well documented, and I can't help wondering if his barbed comment was actually a deliberate dig aimed specifically at her. As well as the Ozempic comment, he said of the photo: 'This is not AI. 'I really am egotistical enough to do this.' Yes Sacha, you are egotistical. But also very much out of touch with reality, too. Skechers may need to give Myleene the boot SO Myleene Klass has a juicy deal to promote Skechers trainers. And in this promo shoot she looks amazing, toned, fit and defying her 47 years of age. 7 The problem is her footwear is probably the last thing any of us are looking at. Shame on Jay idiots THE tragic death of Jay Slater was a horrible accident that could have happened to any one of the thousands of teenagers who holiday abroad every year. My heart goes out to his parents. 7 I hope they got some closure on Friday when the inquest into his death finally ruled it had been an accident, that he had died from a fall and, thankfully, would not have been in pain. I also hope this verdict puts a stop to the absolute idiots who were part of the online super-sleuthing surrounding his death and now makes them realise how utterly stupid and insensitive they were to Jay and his traumatised family. The groundless, false theories that circulated on the internet after Jay went missing included him being kidnapped after crossing 'Moroccan drugs gangs', his disappearance being faked to scam money in donations from the public, and the Mafia having somehow played a role. When somebody disappears now, a ghoulish fascination emerges, with unqualified glory hunters turning detective and believing or adding to the ridiculous conspiracies they read online. It has to stop. They are causing more harm than good. And they are making a mockery of themselves while they're at it. PERKY gym bunny Georgia Toomey was fuming at being asked to zip up her top in Wetherspoons to cover up her sports bra because it was a 'family-friendly pub'. What she should have felt is a bit daft for flashing a sports bra in a pub in the first place. 7 It is a bra – designed to be worn under clothes unless you're in your own home, posing in a lap-dancing bar or working out without a top on at the gym. Underwear is not for prancing around your local boozer, or nipping into Tesco. You'd give someone a heart attack. Face it, joke is wrong ON his daughter's last day at school, Chris Napthine decided to put on an ape costume and mask because he says: 'I was just trying to embarrass her'. Which he has now well and truly achieved because the school has kicked off, saying it's a safeguarding issue because they can't see who is picking up kids when the person's face is covered – which is a very valid point. 7 And no parent would like a call from the school office saying that a giant gorilla had nabbed little Johnny and they no longer know his whereabouts. Maybe Chris should try to remember it's the kids who are the ones that are supposed to be monkeying around, not the adults. IF you want some light entertainment, I can highly recommend the car crash interview on Monday's Lorraine show between Christine Lampard and Helen Lederer, who is appearing in the new Fawlty Towers stage show. It was as hilariously chaotic as an old episode of the vintage sitcom. Helen kicked off the chat by asking Christine if she watched the original series when she was 'at school'. Despite the fact Christine was born the same year the final episode aired, she managed to keep her composure. Then actress Helen admitted she wasn't even sure how to pronounce Manuel and hadn't bothered watching the old episodes for research. Basil would have lots to say. Rayn in excess WOMAN of the people Angela Rayner has splashed out on not one but two new beds for her grace-and-favour government flat, costing £7,000. Which, unless they're gold-plated, is sheer madness. While the rest of us are tightening our belts, the Deputy PM actually ordered them not long after a public visit to an Ikea store in Warrington. Surely Ange could have found a minion to assemble a bit of flat pack and save the taxpayer about £6,500. AS I was scrolling through Instagram (again!) and had a nosey at Nicola Peltz Beckham's pictures, my six-year-old had a look over my shoulder and asked: 'Eurgh! Mummy, why is there a photo of her naked in the bath?' The only real explanation I could think of was: 'To get up her in-laws' noses.' 7 Instead, I just shrugged and replied: 'To show off.' He didn't question it – but I did. What was she thinking?
