Michael Gross, who played the beloved father Steven Keaton on Family Ties, is wishing his legendary costar Meredith Baxter a happy birthday, too. The duo turned 79 on the same day!

Gross and Baxter, both 79, rose to stardom on the hit NBCsitcom, which followed former hippies Steven and Elyse Keaton as they raised their family during the Reagan era. Of course, that included their aspiring capitalist son, Alex, played by Michael J. Fox in his breakthrough role, and their superficial daughter, Mallory, played by Justine Bateman. Younger daughter Jennifer, played by Tina Yothers, rounded out the bunch. The series became a favorite throughout the ’80s and highlighted the sharp contrast between the ideals of the baby boomer generation and those of their children. 

Since Gross and Baxter share the same birthday and are still close, Gross wished Baxter a happy birthday in a sweet new Instagram post.

"79 years ago today, baby Michael was born in the Central Time Zone and baby Meredith in the Pacific Time Zone. Thirty-five years later, the two of them met and played husband and wife on @nbc's FamilyTies. @familytiescentral#fans already know this, but for those who don't, "Happy Birthday, Meredith Baxter!!!" Gross captioned the throwback shot.

Ali Larter is giving Legally Blonde fans all the endorphins after showing up at the film's recent 25th anniversary reunion looking positively ageless.

Larter, who played accused killer Brooke Taylor Windham in the original 2001 film, looked stunning in a black, strapless dress featuring floral details as she reunited with co-stars Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Coolidge, Selma Blair, Matthew Davis and Victor Garber at a New York City fan event on Saturday, June 20.

"Legally Blonde 25th Anniversary," Larter, 50, wrote on Instagram alongside photos of her look for the reunion event. "Is it even possible?! It was so amazing to reconnect with this special cast and reminisce about all our favorite scenes. Ummmm… Liposuction!"

"What a dream to be part of a movie that has inspired so many people and delivered so much laughter and pure joy," she continued, adding of Prime Video's upcoming prequel series, "Can’t wait to watch Elle!"

Larter's followers were quick to brand her an "ageless icon," with one commenter writing, "You simply do not age. It’s wild!" Another person commented, "Time has barely passed you by!! Still as gorgeous as ever," as a third chimed in, "Ali you look better than ever."

A different Instagram user gushed, "Absolutely love you girl you’re looking elegant as ever and stunningly beautiful," as another wrote, "Both you and Reese are timeless beauties."

More than two decades after Larter introduced Legally Blonde fans to Brooke's Butt-Buster Workout, Prime Video is set to debut its prequel series Elle, starring Lexi Minetree as a young Elle Woods.

Elle follows Elle Woods "in 1995 as a fish in the tumultuous waters of high school where she encounters tricky friendships, forbidden romance and questionable fashion choices," as per the official logline. "Through it all, Elle uses her family as a touchstone, and forms an even tighter bond to her mother, proving that they can get through anything life throws their way as long as they have each other. With each challenge she faces, Elle grows closer to the Elle Woods we know and love today."

Elle also stars June Diane Raphael, Tom Everett Scott, Jacob Moskovitz, Gabrielle Policano, Chandler Kinney, Zac Looker and Amy Pietz, with Brad Harder, Chloe Wepper, Danielle Chand, David Burtka, the late James Van Der Beek, Jessica Belkin, Kayla Maisonet, Lisa Yamada, Logan Shroyer, Matt Oberg and Sharon Taylor recurring.

All eight episodes of Elle debut on Prime Video on July 1.

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, the legendary group behind the smash hit album Déjà Vu, continue to resonate with today’s generation after earning renewed recognition for their iconic record.

Composed of David Crosby of The Byrds, Stephen Stills of Buffalo Springfield, Graham Nash of The Hollies and Neil Young of Buffalo Springfield, the band saw its album named by Rolling Stone as one of the greatest albums of all time.

With its list of 500 albums, spanning different genres, eras, bands and solo artists, the rankings unveiled the most influential, popular and timeless acts in music history, voted on by hundreds of music experts, critics, producers, industry professionals and more.

While Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On, The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds and Joni Mitchell’s Blue secured the top three spots, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young made it to No. 220, all thanks to their 1970 studio album Déjà Vu.

Described as a “rock & roll powerhouse,” the record was the folk-rock supergroup’s first-ever album after recruiting Young to their star-studded lineup.

From trio to quartet, they released a number of hit songs, including the band’s cover of Joni Mitchell’s "Woodstock," which became their highest-charting single of 1970, followed by "Teach Your Children," a single written by Graham Nash, the pop-folk hit “Our House” and another standout song, “Ohio,” with all four tracks entering the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

With its number of fan-favorite tracks, their debut album as a quartet reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

Nash credited the Buffalo Springfield frontman for his significant contribution to the album’s success.

“Neil’s a strange energy. He brings a darker edge and a more realistic edge to our music…It did fit, though. Déjà Vu is a pretty fun album,” he told Music Radar as reported by Classical Album Sundays.

The album sold over eight million copies worldwide, further cementing their status as one of the most influential groups of the 1970s.

As Nash continues to recall, Déjà Vu had a different feel compared to their previous album as a trio.

“During the first album, we were all in love,” he told the outlet, referencing their romantic relationship with respective partners back then. “David was in love with Christine [Hinton], Stephen was in love with Judy Collins, I was in love with Joni [Mitchell]. Everything was rosy and fantastic. By ‘Déjà Vu’, Joni and I had split up, Stephen and Judy had split up, and Christine had just been killed. It was all dark.”

The former member of The Hollies revealed that “Our House” was a bittersweet reflection of his time living with Mitchell in their home in Laurel Canyon.

Two reality TV fan favorites just tied the knot in a romantic ceremony in Croatia. Love Is Blind’sGiannina Gibelli and The Bachelorette’sBlake Horstmann finally made it official, marrying over the weekend. 

Gibelli and Horstmann both looked for love in the spotlight. Giannina was an original cast member of Netflix’s Love Is Blind. The season 1 standout fell for Damian Powers, sight unseen, and agreed to marry him on the show. But sadly (or more like luckily), he said no at the altar, leaving Gibelli single. Even though they didn’t marry, the pair did stay together for over two years.

Horstmann, who starred in The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise, also failed to find true love on reality TV. While he did finish as runner-up in season 14, Horstmann caused plenty of drama on Bachelor in Paradise, with Caelynn Miller-Keyes (whom he had dated prior to filming) saying on the show, “I thought he was a great guy and then we really had something. We talked about skipping Paradise and coming out with us, and then he ghosted me. Just like fully stopped communication.”

Gibelli and Horstmann met while filming Paramount+’s All Star Shore, started dating in 2021, and confirmed their relationship the following year. Giannina gave birth to the couple’s first child, son Heath Orion Horstmann, in March of 2024, making an Instagram announcement that read, “Our lives are brighter, fuller, and forever better. Thank you for all of the love and well wishes. Heath has so many people who love him. We’re parents!” The couple got engaged later that year.

The brand-new bride documented the fanfare leading up to their nuptials on Instagram. In February, she previewed her rehearsal and after-party looks, taking fans along with her as she shopped for dresses. In March, she shared a sneak peek at her wedding invitations. And in April, she shared pics of her birthday bachelorette trip to Amsterdam.

More recently, Giabelli posted (on June 1) the couple’s trip to pick up their marriage license. And then there’s the wedding vacation. The family of three kicked things off in Capri, getting in plenty of fun in the sun. Per Giabelli’s posts, they then went to Pompeii and Sorrento before heading to Venice and eventually taking a ferry to Rovinj, Croatia, for the wedding.

A reception with a four-course plated dinner at the Hutterott Castle followed the romantic ceremony. Their nearly 100-person guest list reportedly included fellow reality TV stars Jessica Vestal, Colleen Reed, Alexia Lemiex, Raven Ross, Taylor Krause, Anna Redman, Chris Bukowski, Astrid Wendt, Jason Tartick, and Kevin Wendt.

Why Croatia? Gibelli’s mother is half-Croatian! The bride, who visited the country years ago,  toldPEOPLE, “I felt at home and knew that one day this was where I would get married.” 

If you were asked to guess the most photographed spots in America, your mind would probably wander straight to the soaring skyscrapers of New York City, the neon-drenched corridors of the Las Vegas Strip, or the palm-fringed boardwalks of Los Angeles. It turns out you’d be exactly right on the heavy hitters. According to a massive new data-science index from the photo-product platform Popsa, which analyzed millions of traveler photos, New York City officially holds the number-one spot with a perfect index score of 100. But if you look just a fraction further down the list, the fourth most photographed "city" in the United States is a total curveball that beats out nearly every major coastal metropolis on the map: Bay Lake, Florida.

For anyone who isn’t a local government buff, Bay Lake is the tiny, Disney-controlled municipality that technically contains the Magic Kingdom, Epcot and Hollywood Studios. Because millions of families treat a walk down Main Street, U.S.A. as a once-in-a-lifetime bucket-list pilgrimage, the sheer volume of images captured in front of Cinderella Castle managed to land Popsa an index score of 90, tying Las Vegas. The data proves that our modern travel habits are entirely driven by the pursuit of frame-worthy memories, whether we are capturing world-class streetscapes or waiting for the perfect fireworks blast over Tomorrowland.

When you look at the top ten list as a whole, it becomes clear that the most camera-dominant destinations across the country balance iconic, cinematic landmarks with a thriving local food and culture scene.

In New York City, the classic sunrise walk across the Brooklyn Bridge or a stroll through DUMBO’s cobblestone alleys deliver those timeless, iron-framed compositions that look straight out of a movie. On the opposite coast, Los Angeles (No. 2) commands a score of 91 by pairing the sun-bleached ridges of Runyon Canyon with the neon glow of the historic Angels Flight Railway. Las Vegas (No. 3) rounds out the podium by proving it is far more than just casino floors, drawing massive crowds out to the vivid rust-and-amber sandstone valleys of Red Rock Canyon just twenty minutes off the Strip.

Beyond the theme park gates of Bay Lake, the rest of the top rankings reveal a beautiful mix of architectural marvels and coastal escapes. Chicago sits at number five, where the distorted skyline reflection in Millennium Park's Cloud Gate sculpture and architecture cruises along the river canyon keep shutters clicking constantly. San Francisco follows closely at number six, relying on the classic, fog-wrapped morning views of the Golden Gate Bridge from Battery Spencer and the colorful Victorian charm of the Painted Ladies.

Down in Miami (No. 7), the lens shifts toward the bold, free-spirited energy of the Wynwood Walls murals and the pastel, historic lifeguard towers dotting South Beach. San Diego (No. 8) channels a completely different waterfront vibe, capturing wild sea lions sunning themselves on the sandstone cliffs of La Jolla Cove and the fairy-lit piazzas of Little Italy.

The list rounds out with Washington, DC (No. 9), where the stillness of the morning Reflecting Pool mirrors the monument in perfect symmetry, and Houston (No. 10), a sprawling Texas powerhouse where travelers alternate between the golden hour skyline at Buffalo Bayou Park and the historic, awe-inspiring Saturn V rocket at the Johnson Space Center. Ultimately, the index reveals that the best travel spots don't just give us a place to unpack our bags—they give us a striking, unforgettable backdrop that we can't resist taking home with us.

If you didn't hear, the Europeans have discovered ranch dressing. As soccer fans from around the world travel to the States for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, tourists have discovered America's favorite salad dressing and have fallen in love, so much so that TSA even had to issue a warning to travelers about packing their carry-ons with the tasty condiment.

"Who knew dip-lomacy could be achieved through addressing the obvious: ranch is the king of condiments. The world is slowly discovering ranch pairs perfectly with pizza, chicken wings, fries, onion rings, quesadillas, crackers, chips, vegetables, and the list just keeps growing," TSA wrote on a hilarious but serious Instagram post. "Are you kicking around the idea of flying home with your favorite dip? If you're traveling within the U.S., make sure to keep your carry-on sauces to 3.4oz or less and place any larger containers in your checked bags."

Chicken Bacon Ranch fans have another reason to hit the drive-thru this summer.

Fast-food chain Zaxbys is leaning into one of its most popular flavor combinations with the launch of an all-new Chicken Bacon Ranch menu, featuring three indulgent items built around the classic pairing of chicken, bacon and ranch dressing. The new lineup is available in all restaurants, online and via third-party delivery beginning today, June 22.

The menu showcases what the company calls its fan-favorite made-from-scratch ranch dressing, combined with hand-breaded chicken and hardwood-smoked bacon.

According to the chain, the limited-time offering includes three different ways for customers to enjoy the flavor combination that has become a staple across the fast-food industry.

The move comes as chicken chains continue to battle for customers' attention with bold flavor combinations and limited-time menu innovations. Chicken Bacon Ranch has become one of the most popular fast-food flavor profiles in recent years, inspiring menu items at numerous major restaurant brands.

For Zaxbys, the launch is part of a busy year of menu experimentation.

In recent months, the chain has introduced giant chicken wraps, new dry-rub flavors and seasonal milkshakes as it looks to stand out in the increasingly crowded chicken category. Earlier this spring, the company rolled out Giant Chicken Finger Wraps, including a Chicken Bacon Ranch version, after customer demand for more portable meal options.

The latest launch also puts Zaxbys in more direct competition with fellow chicken chains, including Chick-fil-A, as brands continue searching for the next viral menu item.

Customers interested in trying the new Chicken Bacon Ranch lineup won't have to wait long.

The limited-time menu is scheduled to arrive at participating Zaxby's restaurants beginning June 29, giving fans another chance to indulge in one of fast food's most enduring flavor combinations.

From their sun-baked shores to the innate glamour, luxury, and jaw-dropping beauty that you can’t help but come across, whether you’re in Mallorca or Mykonos, Mediterranean destinations are among some of the most romantic, sensual, and relaxing on the whole planet. Copious sunny days, historic charm, and world-renowned culinary delights meet travelers everywhere they go in the Mediterranean. But there is one spot that might be a better fit for your spirit, based on your birth month. After all, your birth month tells an astrology-based story about your perspective, strengths, challenges, and tastes. 

The Mediterranean Destination That Echoes Your Soul, Based on Your Birth Month

Read on to learn which Mediterranean destination best matches your spirit, based on the month you were born.

January: The Algarve, Portugal

Born at the start of a new year, you claim either hardworking, serious Capricorn or progressive, group-oriented Aquarius as your sun sign. Both signs are ruled by Saturn, the taskmaster planet, which oversees commitment, reality checks, and boundaries, and both signs are equally committed to making their mark. That’s why The Algarve in Portugal is the Mediterranean destination that best matches your soul, as it’s both truly unique (very Aquarian) and also a prime Portuguese tourist destination (which appeals to Caps), thanks to its breathtaking coves and grottos, charming beaches, Michelin star restaurants, and appeal for everyone from surfers to globe-trotting adventure-seekers. Vineyards and luxe resorts have earned it the nickname “the California of Europe."   

February: Santorini, Greece 

You came into the world when the sun was moving through either imaginative, innovative air sign Aquarius or ethereal, mystical water sign Pisces, making you a dreamer and a doer. That’s why Santorini, a world-famous island in Greece that boasts wine, whitewashed villages, breathtaking scenery that includes cliffs, black lava rocks, and a volcanic crater. It’s a place where you can dream and explore the science of the island, serving as a globally recognized geological and archaeological wonder, which appeals to your curious mind and heart.

March: Mallorca, Spain

Born when the sun was moving through either mystical, empathic Pisces or go-getter, dynamic, athletic fire sign Aries, Mallorca, Spain, with its activities for both spiritual and athletic types. If you’re more of an Aries, especially when you’re globe-trotting, Mallorca is the perfect destination for cycling, water sports, and tennis. If you’re more Piscean and looking for a destination that boasts awe-inspiring meditative spots, you’re in luck, as well, given that Mallorca is home to ancient mountaintop hermitages, Gothic cathedrals, and natural beauty that sets the stage for self-reflection and daydreaming. 

April: Porto Cheli, Greece

You came into the world when the sun was taking a trip through either fiery, competitive Aries or grounded, tactile, sensual Taurus, and Port Cheli in Greece speaks to both sides of April-born people with its cosmopolitan vibes and quiet roots. Originally a secluded fishing village, Port Cheli now welcomes many private yachts and is also a popular place for families to have a relaxing vacation. If you’re a super-active, Aries-style traveler, you can get from Porto Cheli to a variety of destinations on the road, and boat trips are also possible. Soft sand, clean water, and a chill vibe also appeal to earthy Taureans. 

May: Cannes, France

Whether you were born when the sun was moving through slow and steady earth sign Taurus or curious air sign Gemini, you’re a communicator, a connector, and a relationship-oriented person who will adore the glamour and convenience of Cannes. The French destination, well known for its annual film festival, also boasts street art, timeless palaces, wow-worthy yachts, and high-end shopping, all of which feels in tune with your love of learning and luxury. It’s also a great spot to hop to or from, given its proximity to the Nice Côte d’Azur Airport and the sea, appealing to the Gemini-informed adoration of flitting from one destination to the next. 

June: Nice, France

The sun was in either social butterfly air sign Gemini or caregiving water sign Cancer when you were born, making Nice a destination that speaks to your spirit. Its youthful energy and urban culture blends with history, boutiques, cafes, beach clubs, and ancient cathedrals which appeal to your sentimentality and appetite for soaking up knowledge and connecting with others. And because Nice is also easy to access via air, sea, or land, it’s also a perfect base for exploring the Côte d’Azur—or really, all of Europe, which appeals to your sense of adventure and making the most of any given moment. 

July: Capri, Italy

Born when the sun was in either nurturing, caregiving water sign Cancer or sunny, dramatic fire sign Leo, you adore spending quality time with your nearest and dearest and might also have a penchant for the upscale side of life, from luxury hotels to fine dining. In turn, Capri, with its dramatic coastal cliffs, glamorous shopping, jaw-dropping viewpoints, and boat excursions that may feel especially therapeutic for you if you’re more Cancerian, is right up your alley. It’s also considered a wonderful spot to explore alongside family, whether you’re swimming in hidden grottoes or checking out the iconic Faraglioni rock formations. 

August: Positano, Italy

You were born under deeply loyal, theatrical fire sign Leo or cerebral, sensitive, earth goddess-y Virgo, which makes luxurious, romantic Positano exactly your vibe. The cliffside village on the Amalfi coast is famous for its pastel-hued homes, pebble beaches, Path of the Gods hiking trail, local specialties like limoncello, and exclusivity, as it’s not as accessible as other destinations, given that you can only reach it by ferry, private car, or coastal bus. Whether you’re lounging at a five-star palazzo or sipping a spritz at a Michelin-starred restaurant, your innate love of all things glitterati will feel pampered in Positano.

September: Saint-Tropez, France 

You were born under either intuitive, cerebral earth sign Virgo or beauty-loving, partnership-oriented, beauty-loving air sign Libra, which means that a destination dedicated to social gatherings is in tune with your soul. Saint-Tropez offers boutiques, winding streets, and a twice-weekly market in Place des Lices that serves as a spot for locals to gather—all interesting destinations for a curious Virgoan person. It’s also the backdrop of beach clubs that feature daytime parties, world-class DJs, A-list celebrity spotting, and exclusive nightlife that appeals to a social butterfly Libra. 

October: Hvar, Croatia 

The sun moved through romantic, elegant, balance-loving air sign Libra and intimacy-seeking, magnetic water sign Scorpio during the month you came into the world. A sexy destination with equal parts mystery and sensuality is the best fit for your soul, which makes ancient, decadent Hvar, Croatia a clear choice. Having been inhabited for over 6,000 years, its history is striking, and the old town is a labyrinth of narrow stone alleys that will intrigue and dazzle you, given your sense of wanting to uncover mysteries. Hvar is also known for its witchy fortress (Fortica), which features lavender fields, and its intoxicating scents, from rosemary to pine resin and salt. Its surreality appeals to your inner romantic, poet, and lover.

November: Costa Brava, Spain

Whether you were born under the powerful, fearless water sign Scorpio or jovial, wanderlust-fueled fire sign Sagittarius, you care deeply about transformative experiences, whether they’re impacting you spiritually or emotionally, and for this reason, Salvador Dalí’s beloved Costa Brava was made for you. Dalí chose this destination for its dramatic landscapes—cliffs, surrealistic rock formations, small, enclosed coves—and its ability to inspire his art. That same vibe appeals to your very own intense, go-big-or-go-home approach to life. And with your appetite for coastal activities and cuisine, you might also enjoy exploring Costa Brava’s Catalan cuisine, hiking the Camí de Ronda coastal trail, sea kayaking, or snorkeling in turquoise waters. 

December: Mykonos, Greece

Born with your sun in either adventurous Sagittarius, symbolized by a centaur, or hardworking, serious Capricorn, symbolized by the Sea Goat, you often play as hard as you work and believe in doing the most, which is also the vibe of one of the most famous Greek islands. With its high-end designer pop-ups, world-class house music DJs, and beach clubs that provide full-day entertainment, you can always find a place to party and make the most of the moment. Whether you’re a Sag who loves to live large or a Capricorn who is both earthy and interested in status, the amplified details Mykonos offers—large yachts, over-the-top cocktails, brightly hued bougainvillea—are sure to speak to you.

Coca-Cola will always be known for its regular supply of iconic soda flavors, be it a bottle of classic Coke or a refreshing can of Cherry or Vanilla Coke.

As delicious as the brand's signature flavors are on their own, Coke is giving fans even more reason to celebrate with the debut of three new soda flavors inspired by one of the most anticipated movies of the year.

As audiences look ahead to the release of Illumination's upcoming Minions & Monsters, Coca-Cola is adding three new flavors to its Freestyle Machines across the country.

Found exclusively at AMC theaters, the new lineup of Minions-inspired flavors specifically includes:

• Sprite Bello Yello: taken from the Minions' signature greeting, the Bello Yello features a blend of Sprite Lemonade and Sprite Pineapple, delivering a refreshing tropical soda unlike ant other.
• Minute Maid Goomi Green: inspired by Minions & Monsters' central antagonist, Goomi Green features a mix of Minute Maid Limeade, Sprite Vanilla and Mello Yello Citrus Twist for the ultimate tangy beverage.
• Fanta Irene Infusion: named for a standout character in the film, the Infusion offers a mix of Fanta Orange and Fanta Fruit Punch, perfect for all those who love a tropical-inspired soda to accompany their movie-going experience.

As with most of Coca-Cola's Freestyle machines, the new flavors are available in both standard and zero-sugar varieties. And if the early reaction online has been any indication, fans might find themselves stocking up on the limited-edition soda flavors while they're still in theaters.

"Ok I need to head to one of these now," said one fan.

"The way I’ll be going in the cinema just for banana sprite 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️💨," shared another user.

Arriving in theaters on July 1, Minions & Monsters serves as the third installment in the Minions franchise and the seventh entry in the overall Despicable Me series. The film's cast includes Christoph Waltz, Jeff Bridges, Jesse Eisenberg, Allison Janney, Zoey Deutch and Phil LaMarr, among others.

On Monday, the family of Alan Greenspan announced his death, citing complications from Parkinson's Disease as the cause. The 100-year-old was most famously the chair of the Federal Reserve, working under four different presidents for five terms during his tenure, according to NBC News.

Often credited with steering the country through one of our longest periods of economic expansion from 1991 to 2001, and just as often blamed for creating the conditions that led to the Subprime Mortgage crisis that began in 2007, Greenspan has had a storied career. Here are just some of the things that Greenspan accomplished during that time.

According to the Federal Reserve History website, Greenspan began his financial career in 1948, when he joined the National Industrial Conference Board. This was after he graduated from New York University, but before he received his doctorate from Columbia University.

Here, he helped analyze demand for metals such as steel, copper, and aluminum.

He Became One of Wall Street's Most Trusted Voices

In 1954, Greenspan became the chairman and president of Townsend-Greenspan & Co., a position he held until 1974, and then again from 1977 to 1987. The economic consulting firm was highly profitable, according to Timemagazine, and at one point, it was the place some of the country's largest corporations turned to for conservative financial advice.

"He is the kind of person who knows how many thousands of flat-headed bolts were used in a Chevrolet and what it would do to the national economy if you took out three of them," former Texas Congressman and friend Frank Ikard once said of his vast financial capabilities.

He Was an Early Fan of Apple

In 1985, Greenspan appeared in multiple commercials as a pitchman for Apple's IIc computer, which many might not realize. "People in high places are always asking me: ‘Alan, where does the money go,'" he said before hawking the computer (and its modem). Back then, the computer cost $1,300.

Some of the features of this early model included checking your bank balance and paying your bills online, according to Wired. "You can even pay your bills off automatically," Greenspan, who had previously served as chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers, said in the commercial. "If you have any money left over, congratulations. You’re doing better than the government is."

Greenspan Joked About the Government Before Taking a Job With It

The timing of the Apple spot was amusing in hindsight, since just two years later, Greenspan was appointed to the Federal Reserve, holding the position through two recessions, including the Asian financial crisis in 1997 and the September 11th attacks, according to the Federal Reserve History website.

Greenspan earned a reputation as anti-inflation during this time and worked to control prices rather than promote employment, a stance that critics complained about. However, while some may not have been fans, he did earn the praise of four presidents, first being appointed by Ronald Regan and then reappointed by three successive presidents.

He Also Became a Best-Selling Author

You can add "accomplished author" to Greenspan's list of achievements. He wrote several books during his lifetime, including:

• The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World
• The Map and the Territory
• Capitalism in America

The Age of Turbulence was particularly well received, and the book went on to become a New York Times Best Seller, according to Amazon.

Greenspan clearly leaves behind an impressive legacy, but it's likely to pale in comparison to the one he left at home.

His wife, NBC News' Andrea Mitchell, announced his death in a statement early Monday, writing in part, "To me, he was my husband, who shaped my life from our very first date in 1984. He had ‘irrational exuberance’ for baseball, the Washington Commanders, tennis, golf, and music, especially jazz," she continued. "He will be remembered for his brilliance and his kindness. Being his life partner was the joy of my life."

Jane Seymour is embracing her natural beauty at every age.

The Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman star, 75, revealed her secret to aging naturally is "no lasers" and "no fillers" while talking to Page Six at the 2026 Songwriters Hall of Fame Gala on Thursday, June 11.

"This is what happens," she told the publication at the time, clarifying that she isn't "trying to be 30 when [she ’s] 75" before quipping, "I mean, maybe 60 would be nice."

Seymour, who reunites with Dr. Quinn co-star Joe Lando on Acorn TV's Harry Wild, continued of her decision to age naturally, "I’ve been playing a lot of older women. And the truth is, for me personally, the kind of acting that I do is not about glamour, it’s more about serious emotion, and for real authentic emotion, you need every muscle to work."

With age comes more than just beauty, as Seymour revealed that she's the happiest she's ever been at age 75. "I’m on a show that I love, Harry Wild, my fifth season," she said. "Who has a series when they’re 75? Nobody. I’m starting a great movie in Australia later this year, I’ve got a one-woman art show in New Jersey, my family is great, I’m surrounded by music."

Seymour is also newly engaged to fiancé John Zambetti after three years of dating. Zambetti told PEOPLE earlier this month that his romantic proposal at the couple's Malibu home was a bit chaotic, as "the ring popped out of the box."

"Then I had to climb under the bed, and then I couldn't get out, and she had to get out of the bed and pull me out of the bed," he recalled, as Seymour added cheekily, "And we weren't wearing any clothes."

"Serious bedhead involved," she added. "But the funniest part was that he couldn't get up afterwards. His knee was now stuck from being under the bed, and I'm not strong enough to pull him up because he weighs almost twice what I do. We looked at one another and started laughing hysterically."

Heather Graham looks like she's having the time of her life in the south of France as she films the upcoming season of HBO's The White Lotus.

Graham, 56, who broke onto the scene in films like Drugstore Cowboy and License to Drive, later solidified her role as a Hollywood staple in hits like Boogie Nights and Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. With her soft blonde hair and bright blue eyes, the gorgeous star has the acting creds to back up her stunning looks. And with a new gig starring on The White Lotus, it's incredibly exciting to see what she'll bring to season 4.

In a new series of Instagram Stories, Graham shared some behind-the-scenes photos from her downtime in the south of France while filming the new season, which takes place during the glamour and chaos of the Cannes Film Festival.

Helena Bonham Carter Dropped Out of The White Lotus

Carter, 59, an acclaimed actress known for diverse roles ranging from Fight Club to Ocean’s 8, abruptly departed the beloved HBO series nine days after production kicked off in France for Season 4. In a Variety report that covers the upcoming season, we learned that it was Carter’s creative differences with show creator Mike White that had her packing her bags and saying “au revoir.” More specifically, White’s demands that Carter provide a more “boisterous performance.”

 The character Carter was set to play was a washed-out star in search of her big comeback, sources told Variety.

Upon Carter’s exit from the series, a representative from HBO told Page Six that “With filming just underway on season four of The White Lotus, it had become apparent that the character which Mike White created for Helena Bonham Carter did not align once on set.”

“HBO, the producers and Mike White are saddened that they won’t get to work with her, but remain ardent fans and very much hope to work with the legendary actress on another project soon,” the spokesperson added.

Laura Dern Checked Into The White Lotus

Just days after Carter’s departure from the show was announced, it was shared that Laura Dern would be checking into The White Lotus for season 4.

Dern, 59, a longtime friend and colleague of White, will play a new character being developed and written for her by White, Deadline reported. The duo has plenty of experience working together. They first teamed up for White’s 2007 film Year of the Dog, but their best-known project is the HBO series Enlightened, which ran from 2011 until 2013. The story “about a woman on the verge of a nervous breakthrough,” it introduced audiences to Amy Jellicoe, a former executive attempting to put her life back together.

The announcement of Dern’s casting on Instagram was received with celebratory praise from the public on social media.

In addition to Dern and Graham, the lineup is looking great. Variety previously reported that Chloe Bennet, Sandra Bernhard,Vincent Cassel, Rosie Perez, Ari Graynor, and Max Greenfield were among the big names appearing on the new season.

Taco Bell is always finding new ways to entice diners to nationwide locations, be it through a brand-new lineup of exciting menu items or a budget-friendly deal.

According to several new posts across social media, the iconic fast food giant is currently testing out what might very well be its most exciting menu expansion yet.

As per the posts, Taco Bell is working on a new chili cheese menu that brings the flavorful joys of cheese and chili to classic Taco Bell fare.

At the center of the experimental menu is the fan-favorite Chili Cheese Burrito, a highly sought-after burrito originally introduced in the '90s, but that recently made its return to Taco Bell for its limited-edition Y2K Menu.

In addition to the Chili Cheese Burrito, Taco Bell's new test menu also includes the Mini Chili Cheese Bowl and Chili Cheese Nachos. With the former, guests can tuck in to a mixture of seasoned rice, chili, sour cream, melted cheddar and pico de gallo, all encased in a crispy taco shell bowl; meanwhile, the Chili Cheese Nachos delivers a healthy supply of tortilla chips piled high with chili, nacho cheese sauce, sour cream, cheddar and pico de gallo.

As per various posts on Instagram, the new menu items are available only in select locations in Kentucky and Alabama for the time being. However, as in the past, if they perform well at these restaurants, there's a decent chance the items might make their nationwide debut in the weeks ahead.

What's more, the new menu items are available for just $3, making it a fantastic bang for your buck for diners fortunate enough to be based in Alabama and Kentucky. And if the online reaction is any indication, fans will want to try these menu items sooner rather than later! As one fan so eloquently put it, "That Chili Cheese Burrito needs a permanent spot on [Taco Bell's] menu."

If you're getting ready to pack up the car and hit the road with the family, you may be surprised to hear what state is leading the pack as the best summer road trip destination. WalletHub has released its 2026 list, and Minnesota has taken the top spot. The North Star State is a favorite for people who love the great outdoors. It also has the fourth-most fairs and festivals per capita during the summer, so you’re unlikely to hear. “I’m bored.”

Minnesota ranked tops because it has safe roadways, recording the second-fewest vehicle fatalities per million miles traveled. Bridge quality is ranked high, while speeding is low.

Utah and Louisiana rounded out the top three on the list. WalletHub took factors like fun, scenery, and affordability to comprise its list.

Things to Do During Your Minnesota Road Trip

If the idea of a road trip to Minnesota has piqued your interest, you may want to consider camping, as it is one of the most affordable options in the country. Some favorite camping spots include:

• Gooseberry Falls State Park: Located on the North Shore, it's known for some pretty amazing waterfalls. It’s also known as a great spot to explore Lake Superior. I
• tasca State Park: Another favorite because it’s a great spot to visit the headwaters of the Mississippi River.
• The Boundary Waters Canoe Area: Another favorite spot for outdoor enthusiasts, there is kayaking, canoeing, and some simply beautiful sites.

If you hit a rainy day during your road trip, you could always visit the Mall of America. With over 500 stores and an indoor theme park, it is the nation’s largest mall, offering endless things to see and do.

Depending on when you plan to visit, the Minnesota State Fair is a must-see. This year it’s slated for  August 27th-September 7th. It’s one of the largest fairs in the country, drawing visitors from around the country. If those dates don’t work for you, there are plenty of other summer festivals to check out.

Keep this in mind: Minnesota has one of the lowest 3-star hotel costs during mid-July, which is often a top travel time. So, you may want to plan your trip around that time.

What States Are the Worst Road Trip Destinations?

When it comes to curating the perfect summer road trip, the journey is just as important as the destination, so knowing where to go can be incredibly helpful too.

While Minnesota and Utah are the top spots for a summer road trip this year, Connecticut, Delaware, and Rhode Island are definitely not, ranking high in cost and low in the number of activities they offer compared to other states.

While we aren't saying you should visit these areas of the country, definitely avoid them on a road trip to make sure you're maximizing your time and money.

Robert Palmer was an iconic singer who had several huge hits throughout his career, from “Addicted to Love” to “Bad Case of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor).” One of the most memorable songs that rose all the way to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and earned him his second Grammy was “Simply Irresistible.”

This 1988 song was accompanied by a popular music video directed by a British fashion photographer named Terence Donovan. Donovan also worked on Palmer's “Addicted to Love” video, which was considered “fashion’s favorite video” by The Guardian.

In addition to being a well-known singer and songwriter, Palmer was known for his unique fashion sense. He was named the “Best Dressed Rock Star" in Rolling Stone magazine's 1990 Readers' Poll, mainly due to his love of suits.

“I just always felt comfortable in a suit and tie,” the star said in a 1996 interview with theL.A. Daily News. "It's served me well, because I never got aligned with any fashion trend. I simply believed that if you're going to be in public, dress up."

Palmer wore an outfit from Giorgio Armani when he was on the July 1988 cover of GQ, which is widely considered the most influential men’s fashion magazine in the world. "He has a great personal style; he's definitely one of the most stylish guys in rock and roll," said Eliot Kaplan, the managing editor of GQ at the time. "I don't know what he wears to the beach, but the man is impeccable."

However, according to the Anchorage Daily News, Palmer didn’t agree that he was the best-dressed man in rock, saying, "Well, my hair's a mess at the moment. I'm the most conservatively dressed person you've ever seen. And they say I've got style? Forget about it. It's all a lot of nonsense." Then he referenced his iconic GQ cover and said, "Look at my face in the picture. That's how I felt about it. It was a silly gig, wasn't it?"

Palmer died in 2003 at the age of 54 after suffering a heart attack. Duran Duran issued a statement at the time that said, "He was a very dear friend and a great artist. This is a tragic loss to the British music industry."

Savannah Guthrie has been receiving an outpouring of support from fans since her mother's sudden disappearance back in February.

Over the past four months, social media users have commented on Guthrie's Instagram posts, sending prayers to her and her family as they navigate life with the unknown still looming.

Most recently, Guthrie shared a heartfelt Father’s Day message that quickly struck an emotional chord with fans.

The comments section quickly filled with messages from fans, with many wishing Feldman a Happy Father’s Day and others offering prayers and support to the family—all of whom have had an emotional year following the disappearance of Guthrie's mother, Nancy Guthrie, back in February.

"I pray for you and your family daily and pray for the authorities who are working hard. Please know that there are so many praying for you all," one person wrote.

"Happy Father’s Day. Your family is in my prayers also," someone else said.

On June 12, Guthrie shared a post from her interview with Emily Blunt on Today.

One Instagram user commented, "How is this poor woman able to get up in the morning and still function," adding a string of prayer hand emoji.

Days earlier, Guthrie had an emotional chat with her longtime friend and Today co-anchor, Jenna Bush Hager. Fans sent love and prayers to Guthrie on social media after that video clip was posted to her feed.

"You dont always have to keep it together. Holding it in all the time will damage your health. You having to keep moving too. You are more than keeping it together! Rely on your support system. We are all praying for you," one person said.

"We are all still praying they find your mom," another comment read.

As Savannah and her family navigate an incredibly difficult time, investigators continue working to find Nancy—and the person or people responsible for her disappearance. Authorities believe that Nancy was abducted from her home in the middle of the night. Although the FBI was able to obtain footage of a possible suspect on Nancy's front stoop the night she went missing, the individual has not yet been identified.

Anyone with information about Nancy is asked to call Tucson’s 88-Crime hotline at 1-520-882-7463 or the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI.

NASCAR driver Kyle Busch was remembered by his wife and children on the first Father's Day since his tragic death last month at age 41.

Following the athlete's death on May 21 from pneumonia that progressed into sepsis, Samantha Busch took to Instagram to share a collection of moments featuring her late husband with their two children—son Brexton, 11, and daughter Lennix, 4.

"This still doesn't feel real at all," Samantha, 40, wrote on Instagram on Sunday, June 21. "I was up all night thinking about what today should have looked like for Kyle and the kids. The Father's Day cards that were already made, sitting in a drawer with no one to give them to. Trying to figure out how to navigate a day that should be filled with so much joy for them."

Samantha remembered her husband as "the dad who never missed a chance to be silly," race his kids around their neighborhood, "wrap them in his arms," and stay up "a little longer for one more book, one more question, one more moment."

"Nothing made him prouder than being Brexton and Lennix’s dad," wrote Samantha, who married the NASCAR star in 2010.

"Watching these memories hurts more than I can explain, but they also remind me how lucky we were to have him," she continued. "Kyle, the kids and I miss you every second of every day. Our hearts ache for you, but it's more than that. Your absence is something we physically feel. Our bodies hurt from missing you, from reaching for someone who isn't there, from loving someone we can't hold anymore."

Samantha promised to "keep telling" her husband's stories, sharing his laughs and "making sure Brexton and Lennix always know just how deeply they were loved by their dad."

"Happy Father’s Day," she concluded. "We love you and miss you more than words can say."
