After 30 years after its original release, we’re officially getting a remake of the classic comedy White Men Can’t Jump. Except, instead of Woody Harrelson starring in the lead role, Jack Harlow is making his acting debut in the film out Friday (May 19).

Harlow, who recently topped the Billboard‘s Top Rap Album chart with his album Jackman, steps into character acting alongside another familiar artist-turned-actress, Teyana Taylor.
The retelling takes inspiration from the original ’90s movie, but this time around the story has been given a contemporary twist. Harlow plays the character Jeremy who is described as a “former star of the game whose injuries stalled his own career,” according to the Hulu description.
The rapper, alongside The Nanny actor Sinqua Walls (who plays Kamal in the film), team up to form an unlikely partnership as they create a hustling gig where they can earn fast cash playing basketball. This won’t be the only time we see Harlow on the big screen (or, in this case, TV) as the Kentucky native wants to keep acting.

You’ll be able to watch the full thing once it’s released Saturday (May 20) on HBO and HBO Max. Until then, you can enjoy snippets of what to expect from the trailers the streaming service has released to tease its upcoming release.

Considered the pioneer of the disco era, Summer landed 14 top 10 Hot 100 hits with singles like “Hot Stuff,” “Bad Girls” and “MacArthur Park” all claiming the No. 1 spot. If you thought you had “No More Tears” left to cry over the singer, you may want to think again after checking out the documentary’s emotional trailer.
Within the first few seconds, fans will see Summer glittering onstage while posing a polarizing question to the audience: “Do you love somebody?”
One of the most notable aspects of the upcoming documentary is not only the legacy she leaves behind, but the inside look of who she was outside performing. Within the footage, we’ll be able to get a closer look at the relationships she developed throughout her life, including her bonds with her children. In the trailer, she actually points out that she has “a secret life. You’re looking at me, but what you see is not what I am.” Summer further explains that onstage, she isn’t just singing, but acting too.

When we think of Alexa services, our first thought probably goes to the classic Echo Dot, but no longer do these devices have to be confined to our homes.

Whether you’re looking for directions or want to stream the Foo Fighters‘ newest single “Under You” before their album comes out, the second-generation Echo Auto has got you covered. It brings all the capabilities of the Alexa you know and love in your home and makes them mobile. Now you won’t have to be at home to indulge in her vast knowledge — especially when it comes to giving you directions to that concert venue.
What makes this one different from its previous variation? Well, this time around, Amazon made the second generation a slimmer design for an easier mounting process to your dashboard. There’s also a five-mic built in that’ll allow Alexa to pick up your voice over the sound of the AC, radio and other road noises. And, for the days you forget to pack your portable charger, the Echo Auto comes with a fast car charger to juice up your phone on the go.
You’ll still be able to enjoy the classic capabilities, too, such as streaming your favorite playlists whether it’s through Apple Music, Amazon Music or Spotify. You can also use it to call for roadside assistance: Just say “Alexa, call roadside assistance” and you’ll be connected to an Amazon agent who can request help on your behalf. You can also control your other compatible smart home devices and call and message — all while you’re driving.
Make sure to snag one of these handy devices before your next road trip to enjoy an easier driving experience.

For 25 years, Lovesac has made a name for itself as a disrupter in the tech and furniture scene. It hasn’t gone unnoticed either as super fans of the brand including artists Travis Barker and Brandy are some of the loyal celebrity customers that Lovesac has garnered over the years.

Apart from being customers, Barker and Brandy are among the stars tapped for Lovesac’s 25th anniversary campaign, which debuted on Wednesday (May 17).
Other stars partnering with the campaign include The White Lotus actress Haley Lu Richardson and professional snowboarder Shaun White, showing the range of celebrities and shoppers the brand has peaked interest in.
“This anniversary represents a huge milestone for Lovesac, as it not only pays homage to past achievements, but celebrates the next chapter for the brand,” said Lovesac founder and CEO Shawn D. Nelson in a statement. “Lovesac has been an undisputed disruptor in the furniture category for the past 25 years by challenging traditional definitions of comfort and allowing for a completely personalized experience – one rooted in innovation and versatility. We constantly hear from our customers that Lovesac products have helped them redefine what it means to be comfortable at home with family and friends, and through this campaign we wanted to highlight just a few of those narratives.”
The campaign aims to show off the ways in which the brand has helped customers rewrite the “rules” of furniture. To kick everything off, Lovesac created a video where each celebrity uses the brand’s beloved products in a different way — from its the well-known Sactionals for hosting to the StealthTech Sound + Charge for recording music.
Brandy

“Whether I’m in the recording studio or in my family room, Lovesac StealthTech Sound + Charge puts every other sound system to shame,” said Brandy. “You really do need to experience the Lovesac products to know how they can enhance your own home spaces.”
Lovesac is also working with Barker for their in-person celebration where Barker will be performing live — plus a surprise special guest is set to appear. There will even be interactive elements, which will allow people to physically experience the products and gain a deeper understanding on how the brand has evolved over the years.
Aside from the celebrity campaign, the brand will also be releasing 25 limited edition Anniversary Sacs patterned with Swarovski crystals, which will symbolize the brand’s silver anniversary year. Throughout the year, Lovesac will also have new product launches and special promotions for customers.

Make room! Yellowstone is getting its own line of Funko Pop! vinyl figures.
It’s no secret that Funko has made a name for itself by crafting the hottest TV shows, movies and even artists into collectible (and adorable) vinyl figurines. Now, you’ll have the opportunity to snag a Funko Pop! collectible of your favorite character from the hit series Yellowstone when they’re released on July 1.

05/16/2023
How can you get your hands on the collection? The figurines range from $13-$15 each and are available for pre-order from Funko.com, Amazon and the Paramount Shop. No matter which Dutton family member you’re rooting for, you can preorder your favorite or collect them all — including this awesome Rip Wheeler Funko.
The collection features five different characters from the show, including John Dutton (Kevin Costner), Rip (Cole Hauser), Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly), Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes) and Monica Dutton (Kelsey Asbille). While country star Lainey Wilson‘s character may not be a figurine (for now), you can at least stream her chart-topping song from the show while building up your Yellowstone collection with these powerhouse characters.
Pre-order the Yellowstone Funko Pop! vinyl figures, and while you wait for their release, hop on the Yellowstone TikTok trend and binge the series on Peacock to hold you over until new episodes premiere later this year.

Funko Pop! TV: Yellowstone – John Dutton
$12.99
Dust off those floating shelves and grab your nearest Pop! protector, John Dutton’s vinyl figure is ready to wrangle the top spot in your collection! Featuring his classic white cowboy hat and ranch-protecting ‘fit, this cowboy stands at around 4.65 inches tall and is ready to kick his boots up and watch the latest season with you.
Amazon
Funko Pop! TV: Yellowstone – Beth Dutton
$12.99
As one of the fiercest Dutton children, it makes sense that Beth’s Funko Pop! is sporting a vibrant, bright blue and Aztec-printed jacket and casual jeans. While her figurine stands 3.9 inches tall, her cutthroat personality, as demonstrated in the show, will only make her appear larger.
Paramount
Funko Pop! TV: Yellowstone – Rip Wheeler
$14.95
You can’t have Beth without her brooding love, Rip. Though his backstory is one of murder and pain, the longtime ranch foreman is a loyal cowboy who will infuse some edginess into your Funko Pop! collection.
Amazon
Funko Pop! TV: Yellowstone – Kayce Dutton
$12.99
Just because he’s the youngest of the Dutton siblings doesn’t mean Kayce’s figurine deserves the last spot on your mantle. His appearance may look casual as he sports a brown and gray hoodie with jeans, but it’s the black cowboy hat that shows he means business — both in his style and ability to swoop in and save the day.
Amazon
Funko Pop! TV: Yellowstone – Monica Dutton
$12.99
Finally, the last of the upcoming releases is Monica’s Pop! figure. True to her character, the figurine sports a colorful outfit with boots. While her relationship with Kayce could be seen as a cowboy version of Romeo and Juliet, it’s Monica’s strength and protection of her family that shines through.

TikTok is beloved for its ability to introduce us to new and awe-worthy products in under a minute — especially when it comes to new beauty releases or makeup tools for beginners. Whether it’s eco-friendly refillable lipsticks, lengthening mascaras, blow dryers that won’t damage your hair or hydrating lip balms, you can practically rebuild your entire skincare, haircare and makeup routine in just one scroll.
Unfortunately, once these TikTok beauty products go viral, it’s common for them to fly off the shelves — or the product comes with jaw-dropping results paired with a hefty price tag that you might not be able to afford. Thankfully, there are TikTok beauty alternatives that can step in and provide results that are just as hydrating, blurring and plumping as higher-priced products, without blowing your budget.

Made with a gel-like consistency that’s clear and aims to grip makeup for all-day wear, e.l.f.’s Power Grip Primer is a worthy opponent to the beloved Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Primer that’s triple the cost. Plus, this formula is non-comedogenic so it won’t clog pores!

Whether you’re looking to achieve the trendy glazed-doughnut look or glass-like skin, a highlighter is essential for giving off a luminescent glow.

Use it alone as a highlighter or mix it into your foundation for a natural, glowy appearance.
Morphe
Morphe 2 Glassified Lip Oil
$9
Lip balms are a timeless beauty product you can take with you on the go for quick, hydrating applications.
