'The E.L.F. TIME Show'
'The E.L.F. TIME Show,' an innovative second-screen companion experience running parallel to the Big Game, has an all-star host lineup led by sportscaster Suzy Shuster, actress and comedian Yvonne Orji and drag queen Heidi N Closet. The trio will bring fun and gripping commentary and keep the party going – including giveaways – while Christopher Kouros, as 'Klaus' reports from New Orleans. Watch live across e.l.f.'s channels on TikTok, Twitch, Instagram, YouTube, Amazon and elfcosmetics.com.
Who is Klaus?
e.l.f. recently released 'e.l.f. von zehn,' a global campaign first launched in the German market that puts real product reviews through outrageously literal and seriously funny lab tests. Klaus is e.l.f.'s new 'Chief Science Officer', who awarded e.l.f.'s Power Grip Primer, Halo Glow Liquid Filter, Lash Xtndr Mascara and Glow Reviver Lip Oil an 'e.l.f. von zehn' – which translates to 11 out of 10!
'e.l.f. von zehn created a product rating scale for our global community, upholding a shared value of premium quality,' said Lam. 'Why stop there? Let's normalize the bizarre and apply Klaus' rating system to New Orleans and its attractions.'
Democratizing access
During the Big Game, the 'e.l.f. von zehn' spot will air on Tubi, which provides free entertainment to 100+ million monthly active users. e.l.f. will be the only participating beauty brand in Tubi's live Big Game programming, a first for the streaming service.
e.l.f. is the first brand sponsoring Tubi's recently launched shoppable experience, allowing viewers to shop their e.l.f. favorites directly on shop.tubi.tv without disrupting their viewing experience.
More of a puppy fan?
e.l.f. is the Official Cosmetics Partner of Animal Planet's Puppy Bowl XXI, also on Sunday. e.l.f.'s 'eyes.lips.face.fandom' ad spot will air during the four-legged sporting event on Animal Planet, Discovery and TBS. This partnership raises awareness for shelter pets and reinforces e.l.f.'s vegan and cruelty-free values.
History of total disruption:
e.l.f. is no stranger to making noise at the Big Game. In 2023, as one of the only beauty brands to show up in front of one of the largest TV audiences, e.l.f. disrupted with a sticky ad that showed everybody that beauty belongs everywhere. Last year, 'Judge Beauty' delivered a verdict at the Big Game that it's a 'crime' to overpay for makeup. This year, e.l.f. takes a multi-pronged, disruptive, never-been-done before approach to the Big Game that reflects the e.l.f. ethos to bring the best of beauty to every eye, lip and face.

This Pitch-Perfect '80s Horror Throwback Hits All the Right Notes and It's Free on Tubi
Tons of movies try to pull off the vibe of classic 1980s horror movies but it's not as easy as dropping in some neon spandex and sprawling synthesizers. One film that does a fantastic job of capturing the "Me Decade" horror aesthetic is The House of the Devil (2009) and you can stream it free right now on Tubi. If you're in the mood for slow-burn suspense with serious '80s horror vibes, The House of the Devil should be at the top of your list. Directed by Ti West, this retro thriller ditches cheap scares in favor of creeping dread and pitch-perfect atmosphere. It's a masterclass in tension, channeling cult classics like Halloween and When a Stranger Calls with a modern edge. The story centers on Samantha, a broke college student who accepts a mysterious babysitting gig in an eerie old mansion. What starts as a quiet night quickly unravels into something much darker. With its grainy visuals, vintage soundtrack and escalating unease, this one sticks with you-and it's streaming for free on Tubi. This horror flick is gory, grim and shockingly true to its vintage setting. MPI Movie Group/Screenshot by CNET From the opening credits, The House of the Devil sets the tone with a ridiculously accurate and detailed retro aesthetic. It doesn't just take place in the 1980s -- it feels like it was made then. The grainy film texture, era-appropriate costumes and hair are absolutely perfect. It's set to a curated soundtrack with tracks including The Fixx's One Thing Leads To Another and The Greg Kihn Band's The Break Up Song. The movie doesn't just feel like it's dressing up in '80s tropes but like it was birthed from that time. The movie was shot on 16mm film, creating its specialized throwback look. It lifts cinematography straight from '80s filmmakers along with a slew of other techniques to evoke classics of the era. Everything, down to the credits, is period accurate and I appreciated all the attention given to making sure everything matches, down to the cups at the pizza restaurant seen early in the movie. The Ulmans have a secret reason why they hired Sam to watch "Mother." MPI Movie Group/Screenshot by CNET Sam realizes something is amiss when she stumbles upon proof that the family who hired her for the babysitting job isn't the same one in the photos. Realizing she might have been deceived, she attempts a 911 call but she's already eaten a piece of tainted pizza. She passes out just as she gets a glimpse of what exactly it is she's been hired to "babysit." The movie's path is fraught with grisly moments (just ask Sam's best friend Megan, played by Barbie director Greta Gerwig), with believably gruesome practical effects that unsettle and chill to the bone. The hideous "Mother," who Sam discovers is connected to her original job, is an example of '80s filmmaking that would have made audiences sick to their stomachs. Sam's friend Megan is not pleased at all by the situation at the Ulmans' house. MPI Movie Group/Screenshot by CNET Without spoiling the climax, The House of the Devil maintains a gnawing, upsetting sense of dread throughout its runtime. It isn't afraid to use themes of isolation, the unknown and betrayal to keep you on the edge of your seat, which I appreciated on my first viewing and only grew to love more with each rewatch. As horrific as the story is, I firmly believe that this movie wouldn't have been possible without its commitment to staying true to the era that inspired it. If you're looking for a horror movie that doesn't rely on cheap jump scares or the overwrought parable "sex is bad" with a group of teens being picked off one by one, The House of the Devil is one of the best flicks you could put on your Halloween viewing list. It brings the golden years of '80s horror to life in believable, decadent ways that'll have you squirming in your seat. I'm still unpacking the gagworthy climax and I bet you will be too.

From Euphoria to Entrepreneurship: Sydney Sweeney's Lingerie Brand Gets Bezos Boost
is preparing to debut a lingerie brand reportedly backed by Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) founder investor Jeff Bezos and his wife, Lauren Sánchez. The Emmy-nominated actress, best known for her roles in HBO's 'Euphoria' and 'The White Lotus,' has spent the last year building what insiders describe as a personal passion project, Fox Business reports. The brand is reportedly backed by Ben Schwerin, a partner at Coatue Management and former Snap (NYSE:SNAP) executive. According to The Economic Times, Schwerin's involvement marks a notable moment, as Coatue has traditionally focused on high-growth tech and rarely invests in consumer-facing brands. The Economic Times reports that Schwerin may have been hired to use his celebrity relationships to bring in star-driven brands like Sweeney's. Don't Miss: Be part of the breakthrough that could replace plastic as we know it— $100k+ in investable assets? – no cost, no obligation. Bezos And Dell Seed Coatue's $1 Billion Innovation Fund Amid Strategic Shifts Coatue Management recently launched a new innovation fund with $1 billion in seed capital committed by the family offices of Bezos and Michael Dell, The Wall Street Journal reports. The fund will allocate between 20% and 50% of its assets to private companies, with the rest targeting public stocks, based on a pitch deck seen by the outlet. "It's such an obvious idea that if I don't do it, someone else will," Philippe Laffont, Coatue's founder, told the Journal in an interview. Though neither Bezos nor Dell directly invested in Sweeney's company, The Economic Times says their capital underpins the same Coatue vehicle now backing her venture. Founded in 1999, Coatue is known for major investments in high-profile startups like OpenAI, SpaceX, and xAI, managing $54 billion in assets as of December, according to the Journal. Of the assets Coatue managed as of December, approximately $22.3 billion was allocated to public equities while $22.9 billion was designated for early-stage and growth venture investments. Trending: This AI-Powered Trading Platform Has 5,000+ Users, 27 Pending Patents, and a $43.97M Valuation — The Journal says the new fund tied to Bezos and Dell is expected to become a high-margin revenue stream for Coatue, with an annual management fee of 1.25% and a 12.5% performance fee on profits that exceed 5% annually, based on the firm's pitch deck reviewed by the outlet. The firm's new fund lowers the investment threshold to $50,000 and is launching with Swiss banking giant UBS to attract high-net-worth individuals who want exposure to private tech and consumer innovations, the Journal reports. The move reflects a growing appetite to blend Silicon Valley capital strategies with cultural and influencer-driven brands. Sweeney's Rise As A Brand Builder Signals Shift In Celebrity Entrepreneurship During her rise to fame, Sweeney has formed partnerships with major global brands like Kérastase, Bai, HeyDude, and Laneige, according to Fox Business. She recently garnered headlines for a campaign with Dr. Squatch, promoting a novelty body soap reportedly infused with her bathwater, further showcasing her influence as a digital-era presence at Bezos and Sánchez's June wedding in Venice, initially seen as unusual, now aligns with reports linking her new venture to Bezos-backed funds, Fox Business says. Posts on Sweeney's social media in lingerie and swimwear with model Amélie Tremblay are now being interpreted as pre-launch teasers, suggesting a savvy, staged rollout of her product line, according to The Economic Times. While Coatue has not confirmed the precise amount invested in Sweeney's company, its reported pivot toward culture-forward assets is attracting attention across both the retail and venture ecosystems.
