Jurassic World Rebirth Stars Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, and Mahershala Ali Talk Secret Fears, Skincare, and Sitcoms in the Latest Edition of Off the Cuff
In case you're under the impression that stars of this caliber have no fears, don't be fooled: Ali is terrified of mice to the degree that 'New York is hard for me' (although, as Bailey and Johansson wisely note, those are mostly rats!), while Bailey is…afraid of chiffon?
Once it's time to talk skincare, we learn that Johansson uses all her own skincare products (likely thing for her to do), while Ali is devoted to rosehip oil and Bailey is a fan of hyaluronic acid—and the occasional facial. And as for the shows they loved growing up? Johansson was a big fan of Nick at Nite, particularly savorings its reruns of I Love Lucy, Rhoda and Taxi, while Ali was into Diff'rent Strokes, Good Times, and Thirtysomething and Bailey's tween Fridays included The Simpsons, Robot Wars, and an Australian soap called Heartbreak High.
From flossing (Bailey's very proud of his battery-powered water flosser) to what they'd do if they could swap bodies for one day (Bailey swears he'd 'put on a Black Widow wig, take all my clothes off, and lie in Times Square' if he were turned into Johansson, while Johansson would be 'so excited to be tall' if she were turned into Ali), no topic is off-limits for this tremendous trio. Watch the full video for yourself for proof.

Condé Nast raises eyebrows with barebones post for Anna Wintour's Vogue job on LinkedIn: ‘Hiring a head of editorial'
It's now been a week since legendary American Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour shockingly announced that she was stepping down and seeking a replacement to fill her Manolo Blahnik snakeskin boots. While Wintour has noted that she will remain as Chief Content Officer for Condé Nast and Global Editorial Director of Vogue, speculation has run wild over who will take over her day-to-day duties at the U.S. publication. Remarkably, as the names of potential successors continue to be debated, the company has also publicly announced the listing for a new Head of Editorial Content at American Vogue on the job-hunting social media site LinkedIn. 'Condé Nast is hiring a Head of Editorial Content for U.S Vogue,' the bare-bones LinkedIn post, which was first listed earlier this week, reads. 'If you are interested, please reach out by email with your resume to condenast@ Though it is now a generally accepted practice for media companies to post their openings – even for top editorial positions – on LinkedIn, the fact that Condé Nast is doing that to find a replacement for Wintour seems noteworthy, at least on the surface. It may also suggest that the fashion giant may not have actually whittled down the list of candidates to fill that position and is now casting a wider net. At the same time, the company hasn't made an official job listing on LinkedIn; instead, it has merely noted that the position is open and provided an email address to express interest. Still, Conde's method for looking to replace the driving force behind the Met Gala has led to eyebrows being raised. 'Applying for Anna Wintour's old job through LinkedIn is so based,' one LinkedIn user noted, while another snarked: 'crying this was posted on LinkedIn.' Meanwhile, despite the LinkedIn listing, a bevy of names at both Conde Nast and abroad have been tossed around as the next face of the magazine that Wintour turned into a fashion powerhouse. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the betting favorite to land the job is Architectural Design editor Amy Astley. 'Simply put, she's been killing it at AD, showcasing the homes of Hollywood A-listers, a list that recently includes Kendall Jenner, Michael Shannon and Lenny Kravitz,' THR noted, adding: 'The job feels like Astley's if she wants it.' Others who have been floated as taking the mantle are Vogue fashion director Tonne Goodman, British Vogue head of editorial content Chioma Nnadi, The Cut's editor-in-chief Lindsay Peoples Wagner and Instagram director of fashion partnerships Eva Chen. The stunning revelation from Wintour, meanwhile, left many of her employees in a state of shock last week. After the 75-year-old – who was the inspiration for the diabolical lead character of The Devil Wears Prada – shared the news in a staff meeting, one employee told The Daily Mail: It was like finding out that God is stepping down from being God.

Addressed: Should You Wear a Swimsuit On Dry Land?
Welcome to Addressed, a weekly column where we, ahem, address the joys (and tribulations!) of getting dressed. So far we've unpacked how to wear shorts at the office and beyond, how to pack a carry-on bag for a work trip, how to dress with style in your third trimester, and even how to layer without looking like that chair in your room (you know the one). Download the Vogue app, and find our Style Advice section to submit your question. Every once in a while, a collection comes along so exactingly crafted that it makes you reconsider your wardrobe or, faced with that impossibility, make you wish for at least one chance to go all-in on the fantasy in your very-real life. Such was the case of Ryota Iwai's latest Auralee collection, shown in Paris last week. In the second look, a model walked out wearing a simple two-piece swimsuit consisting of a scoopneck top and little shorts in a gorgeous shade of citrine tipped in white, topped off with a short black thigh-grazing leather jacket, and a long black trench coat, socks, and sandals. Suddenly a simple question arose; wait, can you just wear a swimsuit out on dry land? Now, I am not by any means insinuating that this is something that can be done at the workplace—unless you're a lifeguard, I guess—but on those extra-warm summer days, when you go to the beach or the pool, or if you're simply vacationing somewhere when you can live out fashion fantasies, this really feels like the right way to be. The vibes are carefree and youthful—something that always says summer to me, no matter how old I get. The gold-standard for wearing a swimsuit-as-clothing is the pairing of a one-piece with trousers or a skirt, as if it were a bodysuit. I've never really been a subscriber to this formula myself, but I have to say that looking at the way Iwai paired the super-sporty maillot with a very proper pair of pleated (and belted!) trousers feels alluring. I think it's precisely that contrast—the super casual with the business-casual—that makes the combination feel so fresh. Iwai also styled a lot of the looks with boy shorts. In New York there is no shortage of young women in teeny shorts that look like underwear (not to be all Cher Horowitz's dad), and this is not the first runway collection in recent memory to encourage the wearing of tiny bottoms out on the street, but on the Auralee runway they felt more matter-of-fact wardrobing and less 'styled runway look.' Take a look at the striped button-down shirt artfully gathered at the waist and paired with a swim shorts two-piece, or the navy bottoms worn with a double-layered tank and paired—inexplicably, geniusly—with black buckled moto boots and socks. Again, it's the unexpected pairings that make it so good. Rachel Comey also leaned into this wet-dry mix, with a swim micro-skirt (shorts attached!), accompanied by a breezy knit polo and sneakers. A full-coverage swim bottom is also the perfect way to wear sheer clothes—whether dreamy boho dresses or minimal pencil skirts. So why not consider a little experimentation? Old Navy has basic black swim shorts to layer underneath short tunics or jackets, and Reformation makes a blue plaid pair for more romantic stylings, as well as a classic striped one-piece that might look fab with a pair of fab '70s style wide-leg, high-waist jeans. As long as the combo feels just a little off, it's likely to be big-time right.

6 'Jurassic Park' Callbacks You Might Have Missed in 'Jurassic World Rebirth'
Warning: This post contains spoilers for Jurassic World Rebirth. Following a trilogy of Chris Pratt-led Jurassic World movies that all grossed over $1 billion at the box office despite experiencing a notable decline in critical reception, the franchise is back with a standalone sequel featuring a new island, new characters, and a whole new lineup of dinosaurs. Directed by Gareth Edwards (Rogue One, Godzilla) and written by David Koepp (Jurassic Park, The Lost World), Jurassic World Rebirth, now in theaters, centers on a pharmaceutical company's mission to obtain dinosaur DNA for a breakthrough drug that could cure heart disease. The only problem is the drug requires live samples from the three largest species of dinosaur (land, sea, and air) still in existence, and the only place in the world where these creatures have been able to survive is an island near the equator where infamous bioengineering company InGen performed some of their most risky dino gene meddling. Oh, and it's also highly illegal to travel there. Given these extenuating circumstances, pharma rep Martin Krebs (Rupert Friend) recruits covert ops specialist Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson), paleontologist Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey), and a handpicked selection of Zora's most trusted colleagues to ensure the expedition's success. En route to the island, the crew ends up rescuing a civilian family—Reuben Delgado (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), his daughters Teresa (Luna Blaise) and Isabella (Audrina Miranda), and Teresa's boyfriend Xavier (David Iacono)—whose sailboat was capsized by a Mosasaurus in the midst of a recreational ocean crossing. Naturally, the situation only gets more dire from there for everyone involved. As Jurassic World movies tend to do, Rebirth features callbacks to a number of films in the franchise. However, it pays particular homage to the original—and greatest dinosaur movie to ever do it—Jurassic Park. Here are six of the best nods to Steven Spielberg's 1993 classic. Read More: Jurassic World Rebirth Finally Makes Dinosaurs the Stars of the Show The opening attack Jurassic Park memorably opens with a sequence that masterfully sets the scene for what's to come. As game warden Robert Muldoon (Bob Peck) and his team attempt to transfer a Velociraptor into its holding pen at the park, their quarry manages to outsmart them and get its claws on the worker in charge of opening the pen's gate. The highly-intelligent carnivore then viciously drags its prey into its transport container and begins devouring him alive. This time around, a prologue set 17 years before the rest of the events of Rebirth shows how a hastily disposed of candy wrapper results in a gate system malfunction at the aforementioned InGen lab that allows a mutant Distortus Rex, or D-Rex, to get loose inside the research facility. What happens next isn't pretty. A T-Rex close call Considering Jurassic Park's Tyrannosaurus Rex attack sequence is one of the most iconic scenes not only from the original film, but arguably in movie history, any attempt to replicate it seems doomed to fall short. Still, Jurassic World Rebirth makes a valiant effort to put its own terrifying spin on the source material. As the desperate Delgado family sails down a river on an inflatable raft, a T-Rex follows in hot pursuit, eventually flipping the raft just as its predecessor started flipping jeeps after escaping its enclosure in Jurassic Park. To make things worse, a young kid once again experiences the brunt of the trauma. Dinosaur awe When paleontologist Alan Grant (Sam Neill) and paleobotanist Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) see a real-life Brachiosaurus for the first time upon arriving at Jurassic Park, their emotional reactions combined with John Williams' soaring score make for a truly awe-inspiring movie moment. As the resident paleontologist in Rebirth, Jonathan Bailey's Henry Loomis puts on a similarly earnest show when he catches sight of the new island's pod of hybrid herbivore Titanosauruses—to nostalgic effect. Just enough romantic tension Like Ellie and Alan in Jurassic Park, Zora and Henry are presented as a dynamic professional duo with inherent chemistry whose relationship never explicitly crosses over into romantic territory. This likely harkens back to Spielberg's decision to cut a scene from the original movie that showed Ellie and Alan passionately embracing while working at the Velociraptor dig site at the start of the first film. Not to mention that an illegal dinosaur-hunting expedition-turned death trap doesn't really seem like the right setting for a first kiss. The Mutadons set a trap As Jurassic World Rebirth barrels toward its final dino confrontation, a pack of Mutadons—a winged cross between Pteranodons and Velociraptors—arrive to take on the role the raptors fill in the first movie. But rather than cornering our protagonists in a visitor center kitchen, the Mutadons choose an abandoned convenience store as their point of attack. The whole sequence pretty blatantly draws from the original, with the Mutadons even taking chase through an underground tunnel system just as the raptors followed the Jurassic Park survivors through the vistor center air ducts. Flare chase When chaos theorist Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) uses a flare to draw a rampaging T-Rex away from attacking the Murphy kids in Jurassic Park, it's a brave—if also a bit misguided—maneuver. Relying on the exact same move to give the Jurassic World Rebirth crew a chance to escape the island feels a bit on the nose, especially once it's revealed Duncan (Mahershala Ali) survived the D-Rex's pursuit. But we guess there are only so many ways to feasibly distract a man-eating dinosaur from its desired prey.
