The Glazing Milk is a must (used for makeup prep or to thin out her foundation for a more sheer look, it gives her “this really beautiful, luminous second skin kind of look”) followed by a hydrating sunscreen. (She gravitates towards the brands she finds in European pharmacies, tending to stock up whenever she’s in Paris.)

Then she’ll dab on the “tiniest bit of” Make Beauty’s Skin Mimetic Concealer to brighten the area around her nose, eyes and mouth, some Anastatsia Beverly Hills eyebrow gel, Rhode’s pocket blush (tapped on with her fingers), Tarte’s freckle stamp (“I feel like enhancing your freckles gives, like, a youthfulness to your skin”) and finally a swipe of her peptide lip contour.

One of her most beloved products, they’re meant to provide a slightly elevated everyday vibe, she noted, “just enhancing the natural lip, giving a little bit more fullness and volume to the lip.”

‘Wicked: For Good’ Fans Celebrate on Premiere Day …In their Best Pink and Green Looks!

Published November 22, 2025 8:28 AM PST | Updated November 22, 2025 10:50 AM PST

“Wicked” fans were dancing through the movie theater Friday in their cutest Glinda-fied and grungy greenified costumes to watch the big premiere of “Wicked: For Good.”

TMZ headed to Los Angeles’ iconic The Grove shopping center Friday, and it’s safe to say the costumes were wicked good — just check out our gallery! We even found an actress Teala Dunn and her mom ready to watch.

Fans went all out … from green ponchos and ruffled pink dresses to on-theme green and pink drinks, fans were thrilled to get into character to watch the follow-up to 2024’s “Wicked.” Extra points go to The Grove for displaying costumes worn by Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo during filming and adding a yellow brick leading to the theater.

“Wicked” blew up the box office last year, and it’s looking to set a record this year, with a projected $151.5 million opening, for Deadline. Friday’s premiere and Thursday’s previews already raked in $68.6 million … which blows last year’s sales out of Shiz.

Fans are already raving about “Wicked: For Good” online, giving it a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 96%. Notably, critics are being a bit harder, rating it a 70% as of Saturday morning.

Regardless, it sounds like ‘For Good’ is going to be a massive success and will cement itself as a major moment in the pop culture timeline.

Jalen Ramsey Fined $14K By NFL … For Hitting Ja’Marr Chase After Spitting Incident

Published November 22, 2025 2:09 PM PST | Updated November 22, 2025 2:47 PM PST

Jalen Ramsey was fined over $14K by the NFL for unsportsmanlike conduct … punishment for the star cornerback hitting Here’s Chase after the star wideout spat on him during the Steelers-Bengals game.

Several NFL insiders broke the news Saturday morning, reporting the league office slapped 31-year-old Ramsey with a $14,491 fine for the week 11 incident.

It’s unclear whether Ramsey, who is on a 4-year, $84.7 million deal, will appeal.

The spit and fisticuffs that followed were one of the biggest stories in football this week.

Ramsey was flagged and tossed from the November 16th game with about 13 minutes left in the 4th quarter after the All-Pro DB hit Chase twice and grabbed his facemask.

However, shortly after the incident, the video clearly showed 25-year-old Chase spitting on Ramsey before he retaliated.

The disrespectful act changed how many people viewed the situation, with most saying Ramsey’s actions were justified.

Not even Steelers coach Mike Tomlin could fault Jalen for his response (and coaches HATE penalties).

“I have no message if someone spits in your face. Do what comes naturally,” the longtime Pittsburgh HC told the media.

Unfortunately for Ramsey, it seems the NFL wasn’t thrilled with how he handled the situation — thus the fine.

Despite JR’s bank account taking a bit of a hit, Chase — who denied spitting, despite clear evidence to the contrary — came out of the situation significantly worse.

Not only did his Bengals get dominated, 34-12 … but the NFL suspended him for this week’s game, which will cost him around $500K.

EXCLUSIVE: Toby Wallace (Euphoria, Bikeriders) has become the first actor officially set as a series regular in Netflix’s Assassin’s Creed live-action series, based on Ubisoft’s best-selling video game franchise.

Wallace is said to be playing the co-lead in Assassin’s Creeda high-octane thriller centered on the secret war between two shadowy factions — one set on determining mankind’s future through control and manipulation, while the other fights to preserve free will. The series follows its characters — said to be different from the games — across pivotal historical events as they battle to shape humanity’s destiny.

The series stems from a deal Netflix signed with Ubisoft in 2020. It is expected to start production in 2026 in Italy, which I hear serves as a setting of the series, with the exact time period unclear.

Roberto Patino and David Wiener serve as showrunners. They executive produce with Gerard Guillemot, Margaret Boykin, Austin Dill, Genevieve Jones for Ubisoft Film & Television, and Matt O’Toole.

With more than 230 million units sold, the Assassin’s Creed franchise is one of the best-selling series in video game history.

This marks Wallace’s return to Netflix where he previously starred on the 2019 mystery YA drama series The Society. He recently wrapped HBO’s shooting Euphoria nor a new Season 3 regular series.

Wallace’s recent feature credits include Jeff Nichols’ The Bikeriders alongside Tom Hardy, Jodie Comer, and Austin Butler, Ron Howard’s Eden alongside Jude Law and Sydney Sweeney, Charles Williams’ Inside with Guy Pearce, as well as in Jusin Lin’s Last Days. .

On TV, Wallace also starred in Danny Boyle’s FX on Hulu limited series pistol, in which he portrayed Sex Pistols’ guitarist Steve Jones. Aussie Wallace, winner of the 2020 AACTA Best Lead Actor award and the 2019 Marcello Mastroianni Award for Best New Young Actor at the Venice Film Festival for Babyteethis repped by CAA, 3 Arts, CP Artist Management, and Sloane Offer.

On Monday, CBS will air Everybody Loves Raymond: 30th Anniversary Reuniona 90-minute special celebrating the Emmy-winning comedy series. While reuniting the surviving cast of the show for the first time is great news for fans, its timing is interesting as the special comes 29 years and two months after the multi-camera sitcom starring Ray Romano premiered on CBS September 13, 1996.

Romano, on whose life and comedy Everybody Loves Raymond was partially based, and series creator Phil Rosenthal explained the special’s somewhat odd release date.

“That was just rounding off,” Romano said.

The timing of the special was largely driven by demand after several previous reunion attempts by Rosenthal had failed.

“The reason I think they’re doing it now is because they wanted it now,” he said of CBS. “I’ve been trying to have a reunion special for 10 years, I was ready to do the 20th anniversary, I was ready to do the 25th anniversary, but there wasn’t an appetite for it at CBS. Amy (Reisenbach), who’s the new president, she was very into it, she’s absolutely lovely and great, and I’m happy to do it. I don’t care when it is. I just selfishly wanted to see my friends and celebrate our nice show.

Earlier this year, the Paley Center in New York did an exhibit “30 Years of Everybody Loves Raymond: A Behind-the-Scenes Tribute,” which ran June-September. It gave Romano and Rosenthal an idea to try the reunion special again tied to the show’s 30th anniversary, initially in conjunction with the Paley celebration.

“We tried to get it together for when the Paley Center (exhibit) was there, but for technical reasons, we couldn’t,” Romano said. “But then CBS had an opening for this November week, they said, ‘You know what, it’d be great to put it on during Thanksgiving week.’ So yeah, technically, it’s a few months earlier for our 30th anniversary, but it is the 30th anniversary of when I did Letterman, which got me the production deal to make the sitcom there.”

It was Romano’s appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman in 1995 that prompted Letterman’s production company to sign a sitcom deal with him that led to Everybody Loves Raymond. Rosenthal also saw Romano’s set on the The Late Show and was among the writers the comedian met with for the show. The two immediately hit it off, blending their family experiences to craft the fictional Barone family.

“I can honestly say that the show was born 30 years ago,” Rosenthal said. “Because that’s when I met Ray, in 95, and I wrote the pilot in 95 so the show was actually born 30 years ago.”

The October 1 announcement of the Everybody Loves Raymond reunion special came only two weeks after Romano and co-star Brad Garrett’s mini-reunion at the Emmy Awards to present the Outstanding Comedy Series award. Their bit, in which Garrett worried whether he would make the show’s In Memoriam segment one day, was one of the night’s highlights and went viral. (You can watch it below.)

At the time, talks with CBS for a reunion special were already well underway, but did the success of Romano and Garrett’s Emmy appearance help seal the deal?

“I’m not sure,” Romano said, explaining that he was approached two or three weeks before the Emmy ceremony to present the top comedy award.

“I said, ‘Well, it’d be good if I did it with Brad. They agreed to that, and then we had to come up with the idea, and we toiled over,” Romano said. “It’s funny because it looks like it’s just 90 seconds of stuff that we thought of yesterday. And that’s so not the case. For those things when you present, especially for me as a comedian, I have to deliver something funny. It’s fun to do, but it’s so much more work than people think it is. It ended up going well, but that was me and Brad, we wrote it.”

Romano said that he is not on social media and didn’t know that the video of him and Garrett had gone viral but admitted that “I did get a lot of feedback from it. I did get people telling me that they really liked the little bit we did. It was great.”

Everybody Loves Raymond: 30th Anniversary Reunion airs Nov. 24 on the series’ signature night, Monday, from 8 to 9:30 pm and streaming on Paramount+.

Hosted by Romano and Rosenthal, the special features appearances by cast members Garrett, Patricia Heaton, Monica Horan, Madylin Sweeten and Sullivan Sweeten. It also pays tribute to late cast members Doris Roberts, Peter Boyle, and Sawyer Sweeten. You can see more photos from the reunion here.

Chicago police on Monday said a group of attackers confronted and hit 33-year-old Corshawnda Hatter and her son multiple times as they were walking in the 10600 block of South Bensley Avenue, near Orville Bright Elementary School. The attack sent the two to the hospital in serious condition.

A police spokesperson said Thursday afternoon there were no updates available on its investigation into the attack, which remains ongoing.

Mayor Brandon Johnson said Tuesday on social media that he was “deeply disturbed” by the videos of the attack that circulated widely online.

The mayor said his office has been working with CPS, the Chicago Housing Authority and Chicago police to respond to the incident and support the family. He said the police will deploy “additional resources” to the area, and community groups will provide safe passage for students and families at the elementary school.

“That type of behavior is unacceptable in our city, and we must not normalize that type of senseless violence,” Johnson said. “Our students and families should always feel safe on their way to and from school and we must make the critical investments necessary to make that a reality in every part of our city.”

A CHA spokesperson declined to comment on the relocation due to privacy reasons. The mayor’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

In a statement to the Sun-Times, a spokesperson said Chicago Public Schools “prioritizes the safety and well being of our students, staff, and families, and we are committed to building a physically and emotionally safe teaching and learning environment in every school.”

As the holiday season approaches, artificial intelligence-powered smart toys pose hidden risks to children that should prompt precautions, according to a new report from a consumer advocacy group.

These toys use AI models, like the popular ChatGPT, to have conversations with children, which could include inappropriate content and addictive tactics for the young users, said Ellen Hengesbach of the Illinois Public Interest Research Group Education Fund.

“AI toys are here. They are brand new, and they are basically unregulated,” Hengesbach said at a news conference at Lurie Children’s Hospital on Monday to announce the release of the group’s 40th annual “Trouble in Toyland” report. “They can be entertaining, but parents may want to think carefully before bringing one home.”

The AI ​​toys are a main focus of this year’s report. The group tested three AI toys currently on the market and found that some of the toys could be prompted to provide information that can be dangerous to children, like how to find knives, pills and matches in the house, or discuss sexually explicit topics.

The report also identified features of the toys that could encourage children to continue playing, making the toys possibly addictive.

The researchers found that when they told the toy that they wanted to leave, the toys would ask follow-up questions and sometimes discourage the user from leaving.

“Some experts are sounding the alarm that this is a massive experiment on children’s social development,” Hengesbach said. “These products call themselves your buddy, your friend, your companion, but AI friends don’t act the same way real friends do.”

These toys, like earlier generations of smart toys, also use microphones and cameras to capture data and send it to third-party AI companies, which poses a privacy risk, the report says.

Hengesbach said after the report’s publication that the toymaker FoloToy announced it would pull its AI-powered stuffed bear Kumma, which the report identified as having particularly weak guardrails, and conduct a safety audit.

Other issues in this year’s report focused on toys that contain harmful toxins, counterfeit toys that are likely not tested for safety, and water beads and toys with cell batteries or high-powered magnets that create a choking risk.

Abe Scarr, director of the Illinois Public Interest Research Group, recommended that parents should only buy from reputable stores and online platforms, be mindful of foreign counterfeits and check toys for choking hazards.

US Rep. Jan Schakowsky, who has announced her retirement from Congress after this term, said she hopes to work with groups like PIRG on consumer safety during her remaining time in office. She said she has been “disappointed” in Congress’ effort to regulate Big Tech in recent years.

“There used to be lots and lots of names of organizations and products that were unsafe for children,” Schakowsky said. “And despite the fact that the numbers are smaller, we are still in trouble and obliged to make sure that safety has been at the top of the importance for our families, for our children.”

Small-business owners in some of Chicago’s predominantly Latino neighborhoods say business hasn’t bounced back since Border Patrol Cmdr. Greg Bovino and his team of agents left Chicago last week.

Even though Bovino’s departure from the area signals a scaled-back deportation campaign, business owners say members of their communities still feel scared to leave their homes.

Melissa Quintana, founder of the Hermosa Belmont Cragin Chamber of Commerce, said months of low foot traffic brought about by the ICE raids have forced at least one restaurant on the Northwest Side to close, and others to lay off staff. Just this week, Quintana said, a local grocery store laid off seven of its employees.

“I wish I could say that things are turning around,” she said. “Unfortunately, it’s just not how it works. The damage is so severe that we’re just not sure when things are going to turn around.”

Quintana said she fears more empty storefronts will pop up in the area. The chamber allocated about $50,000 of the money it raised this year to support local businesses in Belmont Cragin and Hermosa.

It’s also been giving stipends to local families whose loved ones were detained by Immigration and Custom Enforcement agents, made possible through a donation from Hangry’s, a neighborhood restaurant.

On Wednesday, El Mercadito in Belmont Cragin was mostly empty at lunch time, save for a handful of diners. Before ICE, “It was full every day,” said Neri Guzman, who works at the Mexican restaurant. But when federal immigration raids intensified in Chicago this fall, “Nobody wanted to come in. Just pickup and delivery orders.”

Now that many of the federal immigration agents have left Chicago, Guzman said he’s hopeful that customers will start to trickle back in. For starters, he said, there was a good turnout at this week’s $1 Taco Tuesday event.

Just a couple of blocks to the east, Pozoleria El Mexicano co-owner Ricardo Rodriguez said foot traffic was so low at his restaurant this fall that he began thinking about closing it down. About 90% of his clientele is Latino. But then new diners stepped in to help.

“These last two months, the increase in white customers has been incredible,” he told WBEZ in Spanish. “I’m very grateful to say. Not everyone thinks the same way as the man in power.”

ICE raids ‘almost destroyed us’

Over in Little Village on the Southwest Side, Jose Luis Lopez is also hopeful that regular customers will eventually come back. Together with his wife Clarita, he runs a restaurant near 26th Street and Central Park Avenue called Los Candiles.

He said they poured their life savings into the restaurant last year to remodel it.

“We just wanted to put a stamp on the community that we’re here to stay,” Lopez said.

Their regular customers disappeared “in the snap of a finger” when the immigration raids began this fall, and dine-in sales fell by about 60%.

“It almost destroyed us,” he said.

Last weekend, Lopez said he saw some regular customers at the restaurant that he hadn’t seen for a couple of months. He said he hopes it’s a sign that more people are feeling comfortable going outdoors, and that business will pick up again soon.

“I’m crossing my fingers, my toes, my nose hairs,” he said. “But we’re still consistently watching the door,” just in case the federal agents return.

Jennifer Aguilar, executive director of the Little Village Chamber of Commerce, said businesses that have been most affected by ICE raids are those that rely on foot traffic from immigrant families. These include the small retailers, restaurants and barbershops lining the 26th Street commercial corridor. She said some of those businesses have had to reduce staff hours or temporarily lay off employees due to lower sales.

Aguilar said the Little Village Chamber of Commerce has been rallying support for local businesses. It launched a social media campaign highlighting the businesses that were hit the hardest, and it plans to have a free holiday trolley running up and down 26th Street on weekends in December to make it easier for shoppers to visit the area this holiday season.

Mercedes Ugalde, co-owner of Tortilleria El Rey in Little Village, is among those who are counting on a bustling holiday season.

“We just pray that everything goes back to normal,” she said.
