Jessica Simpson Handled 'Today Show' Wardrobe Malfunction Like a Champ
While most people might know Jessica Simpson from her successful shoe line or her infamously iconic 'Is this chicken, or is this fish?' question on her Y2K-era reality show with her ex-husband, Nick Lachey, let us remind you that she's somewhat of a pop culture icon thanks to her film and music career. This year, Jessica has been making her musical comeback with a slew of singles and a new EP, Nashville Canyon, Pt. 1, which means she's also made her way back to center stage. The multihyphenate made a rare appearance during the July 23 episode of The Today Show, where she performed fan-favorite tracks like 'With You' and 'I Think I'm in Love With You,' along with her latest single, 'Fade.' Of course, during one of her first TV gigs in nearly 15 years, Jessica faced an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction when her satin corseted gown slipped down to reveal a pink bra. The Dukes of Hazzard alum walked it off like a champ, though, as she seamlessly pulled her dress back in place mid-performance. After her performance, she even joked about the incident with the Today hosts, saying, 'Of course I had a malfunction here and everywhere, but it's okay. I think my boobs stayed in, so it's okay.' Her Today appearance comes after her American Idol season 23 finale performance, which marked her first TV performance after a nearly 15-year hiatus. She gushed about the 'insane' opportunity to return to her musical roots, and admitted that she was a little nervous to get back out there. 'Today it was like, 'Okay, get out of your head. Get out of your head. Who cares if your shoe falls off? Who cares if you forget a lyric?'' she explained. 'Honestly, it's just about being able to be up there and be vulnerable and that feels really beautiful.' She also sat down for an interview with Jenna Bush Hager, where she opened up about the emotions that making music brings out of her following her divorce from Eric Johnson. 'You can find blessings in the pain,' she explained. The 'Irresistible' hitmaker added, 'You can find beauty in the pain, and I think I want my daughters and my son to know that. No matter what we go through in life, nothing can take us long as we know who we are and we know our purpose. We're guided by that.'

Hasbro lifts annual revenue forecast on strong demand for "Magic: The Gathering" games
(Reuters) -Hasbro raised its annual revenue forecast on Wednesday, as the toymaker leans on strength of "Magic: The Gathering" games and cost-cutting efforts to weather the impact from mounting economic and tariff uncertainty. The Play-Doh maker saw strong demand for its "Wizards of the Coast" and digital gaming segments for a second straight quarter, as its pivot to digital gaming helped add younger customers even as it struggles to revive interest in toy business. For the second quarter, the company's revenue in "Wizards of the Coast" and digital gaming segment rose 28% due to momentum in "Magic: The Gathering", whose revenue surged 32% driven by growth in tabletop. Hasbro's turnaround efforts, including cutting 3% of its global workforce as well as diversifying its manufacturing and logistics footprint, have helped it reduce its reliance on China, from where it imports nearly half of its goods. It also has manufacturing hubs in Vietnam, India and Japan. The company expects annual revenue to be up mid-single digits in constant currency terms, compared with prior predictions to be up slightly.
