Jessica Simpson's Dating Confession Reveals Where She Stands Amid Eric Johnson Divorce
The 45-year-old singer was spotted at LAX airport in Los Angeles on July 18 by paparazzi, looking chic for her flight. She sported dark sunglasses, an oversized silver blazer, and a long, white T-shirt hanging over her tiny shorts. Her toned legs were on display, and she got a few extra inches of height, thanks to over black platform cowboy boots.

The Daily Mail shared a video where she was asked about her romantic life, and Simpson's answer was quite honest. 'It's a rough road in the dating world,' she admitted while revealing she's 'not getting on the apps yet.' So, don't look for Simpson on Raya just yet. Instead, she would prefer a more conventional approach.
She added, 'I would love for a friend to set me up. Are you kidding me?'
So, Simpson is definitely single and open to any possibilities right now. It's a fresh start for the 'With You' singer, who was married to the former NFL player for 10 years. They share three children: Maxwell, 13, Ace, 12, and Birdie, 6.
'Eric and I have been living separately, navigating a painful situation in our marriage,' Simpson told People in January. 'Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them. We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family.'
The former couple endured months of rumors surrounding their split after Johnson was spotted without his wedding ring in November 2024, and she was spending more time in Nashville, reigniting her music career.
The marriage breakdown was reportedly the result of them being 'different people' with 'different goals,' per Entertainment Tonight. 'Jessica is motivated, and Eric isn't,' a source noted. Johnson had been primarily a stay-at-home dad after he retired from his football career.
Now, Simpson is putting herself first and enjoying her single-gal era — but she seems ready for a little romance if the right person comes along.Best of SheKnows

Adam Schiff Talks Of Donald Trump's 'Climate Of Fear' In ‘Late Show' Guest Appearance; Senate Democrats Raise Questions Of CBS Cancellation — Update
UPDATED, with Sen. Ed Markey sending letter: The Late Show with Stephen Colbert started out on Thursday with the host making the bombshell announcement that CBS was canceling the show, effective next May. That wasn't addressed in his interview with Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA), even though the Trump nemesis did address the president's success in creating what he called a 'climate of fear.' More from Deadline Donald Trump Files Suit Against Rupert Murdoch, Dow Jones Over Wall Street Journal's Jeffrey Epstein Story Former 'Late Show' EP Rob Burnett Reflects On Stephen Colbert Cancellation: "Never Threaten A Corporate Merger" Late-Night TV Is On The Precipice After CBS Axes Stephen Colbert; Insiders Lament "End Of An Era" 'He wants to make the law firms afraid,' Schiff told Colbert. 'He wants to make universities afraid. He wants to make immigrants afraid. he wants to make citizens afraid. He wants to make news organizations, CBS and Paramount afraid. He wants to make ABC afraid. And he is succeeding.' Later, Schiff did address CBS' decision to cancel Late Show, writing on X, 'Just finished taping with Stephen Colbert who announced his show was cancelled. If Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, the public deserves to know. And deserves better.' CBS said that the show was being canceled for financial reasons. But very soon after the announcement, there were quickly suspicions that it could have been connected to parent Paramount Global's pending merger with Skydance. The transaction needs regulatory approval from the Trump administration, and Colbert's humor is frequently directed at the president. Already, a number of Democrats on Capitol Hill have criticized Paramount Global for reaching a settlement with Trump over his 60 Minutes lawsuit against CBS for $16 million. Colbert joined them earlier this week, riffing in a monologue earlier this week on what he called Paramout's 'big fat bribe' to the president. Following Colbert's announcement that his show was getting the ax, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) linked to the host's earlier monologue and wrote on X, 'CBS canceled Colbert's show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.' Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) posted a similar note. On Friday, Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) sent a letter to Paramount's controlling shareholder, Shari Redstone, asking her 'if any official in the Trump administration, including the President or an official atthe FCC, contacted your company about Colbert's monologue on Monday night.' If so, Markey asked if they asked 'Paramount or CBS take any action in response to Colbert's monologue, including the cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. In the Colbert interview, Schiff also criticized the package of spending cuts — known as rescissions — as a sign that congressional Republicans were giving up their power to Trump. The final passage of the package, which rolls back funding for foreign aid and NPR, just as the interview was airing. 'They're worried about losing their own personal power, that is their own personal office,' Schiff said of the GOP lawmakers. 'Some of them have said they're worried about their own personal safety,' Colbert said. 'That too, that too,' Schiff said. 'You can't find a member of the House or Senate that hasn't gotten death threats,' Schiff said. You probably can't find many that haven't gotten death threats against their spouses, against their children.' Schiff said that those threats have greatly accelerated under Trump, but he suggested a way to respond. 'This is all part of a deliberate campaign to frighten people into submission,' Schiff said. 'And the only way to pish back on that is to say, 'Piss off. Piss off.''

Streamer Subscription Prices And Tiers – Everything To Know As Costs Rise And Ads Abound (Hello, Peacock)
UPDATED with Peacock pricing. Peacocks may be flightless birds, but the NBCUniversal streaming outlet of that name is soaring to the top of the price rankings of ad-supported services, hiking the monthly cost of its Premium tier to $10.99 from $7.99. Time was, the ultra-competitive subscription streaming market gained traction over pay-TV by providing a content-rich alternative at a far lower cost to viewers. More from Deadline Ted Sarandos Defends Netflix's Tough Stance On Theatrical Releasing: 'We Are In The Subscription Streaming Business, And You Can See Our Results' Streaming Outlet CNBC+ Debuts On Roku And Apple TV Meghan Markle's Cooking Show Ranks #383, Topped By 'Suits' Reruns In Netflix's 2025 Ratings Prices have been rising sharply in recent months, however, a marked contrast to the days when Disney+ had no ads and cost just seven bucks a month. A recent report by research firm Antenna found that prices for both ad-free services and those with ads have risen on average more than 20% since 2023. Apple TV+, whose monthly price has doubled since it launched in 2019, might have been tacitly acknowledging the trend when it made the service free for the first weekend in January in a global promotion. RELATED: The surge in streaming has tracked inflation across the broader economy, which has seen the cost of groceries, gas and many other items climb at rates not seen in decades. It can be difficult to keep track of the going rates for the different streaming services – and doing so is even more complex now that most are offering both ad-free and ad-supported tiers. Netflix's Standard (ad-free) tier just jumped to $17.99 a month from $15.49, becoming the priciest major outlet, followed by Max's ad-free level at $16.99, followed by Disney+ at $15.99. (Netflix and Max also offer ultra-premium plans north of $20.) Most services have yearly subscription prices versus month-to-month, which can shave a few dollars off the price for those willing to commit for a longer period up front. Then there are bundles like one combining Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+, or add-on options like Apple's recently launched offering with Prime Video. Internet-based packages like YouTube TV initially also promised a cable-like experience at a much lower cost. But YouTube just hiked its basic plan by $10, bringing its base-level subscription to $82.99. January's bump followed an $8 increase in March 2023. The new price for YouTube TV monthly now matches that of Disney's Hulu + Live TV package. For a rundown of the various subscription rates across the major streaming players, including prices for tiers with and without ads, read on. Apple TV+ Apple TV+ now costs $9.99 per month, after a step-up from $6.99 monthly in October 2023. The streamer's monthly subscription price has doubled since it first hit the market on November 1, 2019, at $4.99. That was at the low end of the streaming spectrum at the time, and reflected the service's lack of library programming and status as a tech pure-play disconnected from any traditional network or movie studio. RELATED: The streamer offered a week of free watching Jan. 4-5 ahead of the year so that viewers could check out its catalog, which contains shows like the Adam Scott-starring Severance, Season 2 of which arrived Jan. 17. The streamer then, in spring following the Severance finale and conclusion in March, offered new and returning subscribers a $2.99 per month deal for the first 3 months of a subscription, followed by $9.99 per month. RELATED: Disney+ With ads, a subscription to Disney+ costs $9.99 monthly. The no-ad tier costs $15.99 per month, or $159.99 annually. It costs $6.99 to add another member to Disney+ who is not within the same household, and it costs $9.99 for an additional Disney+ premium member. Disney+/Hulu Bundles Disney+ and Hulu have a Basic Bundle for $10.00 per month with ads for both streamers. Hulu and Disney+ have a Duo Premium Bundle costing $19.99 monthly with no ads on either platform. The Trio Basic bundle subscription, which includes Disney+ with ads, Hulu with ads and ESPN+ with ads costs $16.99 per month. The Legacy Bundle includes Disney+ without ads), Hulu with ads and ESPN+ with ads for $21.99 per month. The Trio Premium subscription — which includes Disney+ with no ads, Hulu with no ads and ESPN+ with ads — costs $26.99 per month. In July 2024, Disney+, Hulu and Max rolled out their bundle deal, which costs $16.99 per month with ads and $29.99 without. Hulu without ads + Live TV, Disney+ with no ads and ESPN+ with ads costs $95.99 per month. Live TV is like a cable add-on to streaming, and it comes in handy for watching sporting events. RELATED: Hulu On its own, Hulu with ads costs $9.99 monthly or $99.99 per year. Ad-free Hulu costs $18.99 per month. Hulu also has live TV plans that accompany the bundles with Disney+ mentioned above. For $82.99 a month, Hulu + Live TV includes the Trio Basic bundle at no extra cost. As of the new year, Disney has elected to combine Hulu + Live TV with Fubo, becoming the majority owner of the resulting merged company. This deal will settle all litigation between Fubo, Disney, Fox and Warner Bros. Discovery over the Venu Sports streaming joint venture, which was set for a hearing in New York the day the deal was made. Max – extra for sports, 3 – Ultra 4K Warner Bros. Discovery's merged streaming service with HBO Max dropped HBO from its name in 2023. With ads, the streaming service costs $9.99 monthly, or $99.99 yearly. The ad-free tier of Max costs $16.99 per month. The more premium subscriptions were raised over the summer by $1 over previous levels. There is a yearly ad-free plan, which increased by $20 to $169.99 per , and the monthly 'ultimate' ad-free plan, which includes extra logins in a household and select titles in 4K UHD with HDR10 or Dolby Vision, increased by $1 to $20.99 per month. The yearly 'ultimate' ad-free plan went up by $10 to $209.99. In April 2025, Warner Bros. introduced a $7.99 per month 'extra member add-on' profile for each account with its flagship streamer Max to curb password sharing. Netflix – U.S. plans Netflix set the tone for many of the streamers as one of the first in the game when it added streaming in 2007 as an add-on to its DVD-by-mail business. The standard plan without ads costs more than double what it did in 2011, with the company openly nudging customers toward the cheaper plan with ads by keeping those prices to less than half of the ad-free level. Standard with Ads: $7.99 Standard: $17.99 Premium: $24.99 The streamer is known for tentpoles like Squid Game, Stranger Things, Emily in Paris, Bridgerton, Outer Banks, Orange is the New Black, House of Cards, Hemlock Grove, Arrested Development, and more. It has recently added a lot of live sports and events, including WWE Raw and NFL games. RELATED: Paramount+ Paramount+ has two main plans from which to choose. The Paramount+ Essential plan, which includes commercial interruptions, costs $7.99 per month and $59.99 per year. The latest price hike took place in August 2024. Paramount+ with Showtime costs $12.99 per month and $119.99 per year. RELATED: Peacock Times have changed in the four-plus years since Peacock launched with an initial focus on its free, ad-supported basic tier. That plan was phased out by Year 2 and NBCUniversal went all-in on subscriptions. The Peacock Premium, which was $7.99 per month, jumped to $10.99 as of July 2025, or $109.99 per year plus tax. A small amount of programming on the streamer contains ads. The price went up $2 in April 2024. RELATED: Peacock's Premium Plus tier costs an extra $6 a month or $60 per year ($13.99 and $139.99) and is largely ad-free, though live sports and other programming does have ads. It also offers downloads as well as geo-targeted local station streaming. Prime Video Prime Video's subscription price is $8.99 per month without an Amazon Prime membership. Being a Prime member costs $14.99 monthly, or $139 annually, though the benefits go far beyond video and encompass free shipping, Whole Foods discounts and other perks. Students pay $7.49 monthly for Amazon Prime, or $69 yearly. Comcast's StreamSaver Bundle In May 2024, Comcast launched a bundle that offers Xfinity broadband customers Apple TV+, Netflix's ad-based tier and Peacock for $15 a month. RELATED: Add-On Channels Within the siloed streamers offering various content — sometimes exclusive and sometimes not — various platforms have made it possible to add channels from other streamers for an additional price. Roku, Apple TV and YouTube have channel stores, and cable operator Spectrum plans to integrate streaming services into its offerings. Other examples can be found below. Apple has recently struck a deal with Prime Video in the U.S. and other territories. Amazon launched Apple TV+ as a premium add-on to Prime Video, charging $9.99 per month in addition to a Prime Video subscription for the streamer's other content. After launching in October within the U.S., the add-on rolled out on Prime Video in the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada. The add-on subscription will cost $11.40 per month in the UK and $12.99 in Australia and Canada. With the subscription, Amazon customers will have access to all of Apple's scripted content, as well as Major League Soccer and Major League Baseball games.

Elvis' Favorite Mexican Restaurant Order Was So Simple Yet So Delicious
If you could have dinner with any famous person from any era, who would it be? This is a common icebreaker that might've come up in a few conversations you've had in the past. And if your answer is Elvis Presley, La Casuelas — a Mexican restaurant in Palm Springs, California — is a great spot to travel back in time, where he frequently ordered ranchero beans with iced tea. Also called frijoles rancheros on the menu, it's made with whole pinto beans that hit the spot. Along with onions, tomato, and cheese, and added layers of Guerito chiles and bell peppers, it's a hearty dish with satisfying flavors that don't skimp on boldness. The iced tea is a nice refresher from all the spice. It's obvious the King of Rock 'n' Roll had taste — not just in his groovy outfits that people recreate even now, but also in food. Long gone but never forgotten, Elvis continues to be a household name and still lives on through speakers playing songs like "Hound Dog," in tribute shows popping up across the world, and even in his favorite dishes — whether in his beloved Southern comfort foods or through Mexican fare. In fact, he carved a legacy so extraordinary that people still ask about the combination that he enjoyed at La Casuelas. Just let the people know at the restaurant that you want what the King ordered, and they'll know what to get you. Read more: 8 Restaurants That Were Once Frequented By Al Capone The Rich History (And Taste) Of La Casuelas Mexican food is a prominent cuisine in the country, considering it now makes up 10% of all U.S. restaurants. And if you want a spot with a rich history, La Casuelas has exciting traditional recipes that have been around for five generations. Aside from what used to be Elvis' go-to, patrons also flock for the pork carnitas, which is as simple as it is delicious. You can pick between corn and flour tortilla, and it also comes with the fresh flavors of pico de gallo, creating a nice and zesty change of pace — a bright contrast to the savory pork. We heard that anything with the ranchero sauce is quite legendary, too, as the taste has been consistent ever since the restaurant was built in the late '50s, showcasing its decades' worth of heritage and familial tradition. In fact, they've stayed true to the beloved recipes throughout the years, allowing you to enjoy the King's favorite just as he did. Beyond the savory stuff, Elvis had a sweet tooth as well, as his last meal was a combination of sweet treats. While it was never reported whether Elvis had tried La Casuelas' sweet offerings, it does have a couple — including fried ice cream and flan — that he might've liked, too. One thing's for sure: In music, in spirit, and in meals, Elvis has never truly left the building, as his influence lives on for all to revisit. Read the original article on Chowhound.
