Millie Bobby Brown Debuts a Fresh Hair Look in a Sparkly Pink Push-Up Bra
Millie Bobby Brown has seemingly gone back to brown hair. In a new Instagram post, she wore her brunette hair in a low bun along with a sparkly pink bra. Brown has recently sported bleached blonde hair.I'll be perfectly honest, I can't always keep up with Millie Bobby Brown's hair. Remember when she seemingly went through four hair transformations in the space of one month earlier this year? Well, apparently she's still just as playful and experimental as ever. Earlier this week, she was sporting a cute wavy blonde bob. Two weeks ago, she had a brunette bob. Three weeks ago, her hair was long and blonde. Five weeks ago, it was a dark shade of brown. As of June 21, the short brunette hair seems to be back. In her latest post on Instagram, the Stranger Things actress wore her short brunette hair in a side part and a low bun, with a few pieces hanging by her face on one side. She captioned the post simply "oh boy," which I can't help but think is a reference to the opening of Sabrina Carpenter's new single, "Manchild." After all, the actress also posted a video of herself dancing to the song on her Stories around the same time. In the photo, Brown wore a silky pink top with a deep scoop neck, showing off a pink bra with cute lace, sequin, and bow details. She kept the pink theme going with baby pink nails, a pink ring, and a swipe of pink blush. It is, as they say, giving girlhood. Brown, who has posted several recent clips and images on social media with blonde hair, recently spoke about the bleached look on the Call Her Daddy podcast. "People are so shocked about it," she said, adding, "I just think I look really different to what people are usually seeing me as. It's so fun." Read the original article on InStyle

We were strangers when we sat next to each other on an airplane — this annoying in-flight habit made us friends for life
This friendly meet-cute is plane adorable. Two women flying to the Dominican Republic with a tight layover and a shared love of beauty products turned a routine flight into a viral celebration of girlhood. Sydney Hogerheide, traveling from Traverse City with a connection in Charlotte, was prepared for chaos. A three-hour delay left her just 30 minutes to make her international flight to Punta Cana. 'So our doors for our international flight to Punta Cana were supposed to close at 11 a.m., and we showed up at 11:02,' she recalled to People. 'They were holding the door for us.' Still breathless as she boarded, Hogerheide slipped into a basic economy seat beside Haylee Culpepper, who was flying solo after her boyfriend scored a last-minute upgrade to first class. What could've been an awkward shuffle before a silent ride turned into something much more. 'I was by myself in basic economy because my boyfriend got the upgrade,' Culpepper said. 'Then Sydney came running in, panting and sat next to me — and it was immediately, like, 'Girl, it's okay.'' What followed was a spontaneous beauty session that transformed row 28 into a mini makeup bar. The two swapped bronzers, mixed foundations and shared mirrors, bonding over their love of cosmetics and candid conversation. For both women, it was more than glam — it was a beautiful connection. 'I always like to land with a full beat,' Hogerheide admitted. 'I'm like, we should do a full beat in basic economy.' So the girls unloaded their makeup bags and got to work side by side. 'She forgot her dark summer shade. She only had her winter shade, and I had both. So we were mixing,' Hogerheide said. Culpepper remembers being touched by the small gestures. 'I would literally be over here, clearly needing the light, and she's just handing me the light mirror. She's like, 'I got it. You need it,'' she remembered. The pair talked about everything from careers to big dreams as they powdered their faces and swiped on their lip gloss. Culpepper, who works in sales, shared her tips with Hogerheide, a nurse exploring new paths. 'We were just chit-chatting and yapping about sales,' Culpepper said. 'That was a big topic of convo. She was like, 'Teach me the sales ways,' because she's in nursing, and she's like, 'I know I can do this.' ' By the time the plane touched down, their in-flight glam session had created a bond neither of them expected. And fortunately, their time together wasn't over yet. As they began to say their goodbyes, the women discovered they were staying at the same resort. That night, they reunited by the pool, and Hogerheide snapped photos for Culpepper and her friends, cementing the start of a unique friendship. Later, Hogerheide shared a video of their airborne makeover on TikTok and it immediately went viral. 'My friends are the TikTok girls. I'm new to the TikTok block, so I'm learning the ropes,' Culpepper shared. 'And I'm like, 'Wait…this is a lot of likes, right?'' The video quickly racked up over six million views and more than a million likes. She captioned the video: 'Met this stranger on the way to Punta Cana. She had a rehearsal dinner and I had a dinner reservation, so we did a full beat in basic economy. We shared all our makeup products and ordered champagne. This is girlhood. Men will never understand.' The internet agreed. Suddenly, their DMs were flooded. Beauty brands reached out with offers and PR packages. But what mattered most wasn't the internet fame. 'For me, I think it was the perfect epitome of girlhood,' Hogerheide explained. 'It was the first thing that came to mind.' 'Girlhood is getting ready in your robes in a hotel room with music blasting, and you're able to talk for four hours without stopping and without getting tired,' she said. 'Like, that's girlhood.' Culpepper echoed the sentiment. 'I feel like girlhood is just uplifting others, coming together over shared experiences that we have because we are women, things that guys will never understand,' she noted. 'But I think it's also about not gatekeeping, like sharing all the secrets, like the best products and things like that,' Culpepper continued. 'Telling each other everything, whether it's about sales or TikTok — sharing how to make it. There's room for all of us in this space.' Since returning home, the two have kept in touch, making a pact to stay in each other's lives. 'All my layovers are always in Charlotte, so obviously I have a place to go if I ever do end up getting stuck in Charlotte,' Hogerheide noted. 'We literally said, just because of this and because we actually immediately hit it off, we're gonna continue the friendship.' Their sweet story has resonated across social media as a reminder that genuine human connection still exists, even in the most unexpected places. 'Always be open to new friendships,' Culpepper said. 'You never know who could be there to make an impact on your life, if you don't just, like, open your eyes.'

Sadie Sink on the Magic of Broadway, the Music That Soundtracked Her Coming of Age, and Her Tony-Nominated Role in John Proctor Is the Villain
One thing I was thinking a lot about in rehearsals was what my high school experience looked like. People would tell stories from school and stuff, and I didn't really have that. Mine looked a bit different. So, I always felt disconnected in that way. I went to high school for a little bit, but it was mostly done on set. That became useful for Shelby, because what really resonated was [the feeling of being a] teenager, but parts of you feel like you're already an adult. It became a useful tool for me, just relating it back to my own life. But no matter what a person's teenage experience was, this show encapsulates the rage and the catharsis, how no one will listen to you, and all those things that relate to girlhood, but also just womanhood in general. There was a New York Times article that came out the other day about the show, titled 'Why Women Are Leaving This Broadway Show in Tears.' What do you make of it all? It's beautiful and it's heartbreaking. There's audiences that, through this play, they're able to think about things that have happened in their own life that maybe live in that gray area that this play talks about a lot. And so, a lot of women connect to it. A lot of my friends that come to see it have very similar reactions, and it brings up important conversations. It makes people feel really seen. Obviously, we didn't plan the timing of it at all, but for this story to be told right now, under the same administration that Kimberly wrote [the play] under years ago… to be back in that spot is just really dark. It feels like such a gift that we get to do this right now. What do you hope people take away from seeing the show? I like it when people leave with rage, because I definitely feel a lot of that throughout the show. At the end, though, I hope that through Shelby and Raelynn [played by Amalia Yoo]—through their friendship—there's an appreciation for the connections that you have in your life, and that sense of hope that, with the people around you that you can lean on, you can change the world for a second. That's what these girls do. They change the world around them for the length of a song.
