Rachel Bilson and Bill Hader were a relatively under-the-radar couple in Hollywood because much of their romance and breakup happened during the pandemic. That doesn’t mean their split hurt any less, and the former OC star is revealing how painful it was for her. Actress Aubrey Plaza stopped by Bilson’s podcast, Broad Ideas, when the Hader conversation came up. Besides shocking Plaza with the news that the couple even dated in the first place, the Hart of Dixie actress confirmed how serious it was, saying, “We dated....

But like most parents, there’s probably a small part of you that dreads the kid-friendly craft every year because it ends up being such a mess. Even with lots of prep work to dye-proof your crafting area, someone is bound to drop an egg or spill the dye and let’s not forget about how hard it is to get that dye off of tiny stained fingers....

On any given day, how much thought do you put into the quality of the water you’re drinking? Do you grab yourself a glass of tap water or filtered Brita and hydrate away without blinking an eye? Well, that’s the luxury of being at home. When you’re traveling, especially on a hiking or camping trip, you need to be a little more thoughtful about the water you’re consuming so you don’t inadvertently make yourself sick....

Everyone thinks of beaches when they think of Puerto Rico. The mere mention of the island evokes thoughts of sunbathing, surfing, and cold beers on the sand. But, while tourists flood the coastline, residents head inland toward natural, freshwater swimming pools. These secluded spots are some of Puerto Rico’s best-kept secrets. Beaches have unyielding sun exposure while natural pools are tucked away in nature, with lush greenery providing ample shade. The water is always cold and flowing, a welcome relief on a hot day....

Winter is a great time to explore the outdoors, but it can also be a dangerous time. Hardened snow, ice, and sleet make it oh-so-easy to slip and fall, potentially causing serious injuries. But you don’t necessarily want to shell out on expensive boots for the job, either. The easy solution? Affixing ice cleats to the shoes you already have. These grippy attachments can provide traction that regular footwear can’t, keeping you upright when your path gets slippery....

Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian reached a major milestone in their relationship last weekend when the couple flew together via private jet to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. While that might not sound like anything special, we have to remember that the Blink-182 drummer hasn’t flown since his devastating plane crash in 2008. That accident killed the two pilots, Barker’s assistant and his security guard — and left him and DJ AM as the only survivors with serious injuries....

Brian Jones knows that it’s the details that count when it comes to total relaxation. But don’t worry, he’s willing to take care of all those little things for you.

Let’s all just admit that Beyoncé knows how to shut down the internet. That’s exactly what the pop star did on Thursday when she released a revealing naked photo for the album cover of her new album, Renaissance, which will drop on July 29.
