There’s a scene in the fifth episode of Sharp Objects before the population of Wind Gap, Missouri, celebrates Calhoun Day, a grotesque backyard gathering that honors the town’s Confederate history. Brittle reporter Camille Preaker—played by Amy Adams—is forced to go shopping for a dress by her zonk-eyed mother, a wonderfully over-the-top Patricia Clarkson. Most of the episode is blindingly bright, a rarity for the unrelentingly dark series, and the mood is taut. This ends up being a crucial poin…

Actress Zoey Deutch has been on my radar since 2011, so when I heard she was in New York promoting her Netflix series The Politician, I couldn’t have been more excited to have her on Glamour’s new podcast What I Wore When, during which I talk to women I find fascinating about an outfit they wore during a pivotal moment in their life.
Deutch’s pick? Her bat mitzvah dress because—as she put it—“when I was thinking about my bat mitzvah or a premiere or people’s wedding day or these markers in your…

Broadcast journalist Sheinelle Jones moved her family to New York from Philly for her dream job on NBC’s Today show. Five years later she’s the cohost of the beloved morning show’s third hour, the coanchor of the Saturday edition of Weekend Today, and a correspondent for all platforms of NBC News. When she came in to record her episode of Glamour’s new podcast What I Wore When—during which I talk to women about an outfit they chose during a pivotal moment in their life—she chose to talk about th…

The reason I was excited to talk to actor Bellamy Young wasn’t that I watched all seven seasons of Scandal but because I saw her on Broadway in 1997, playing a prostitute in The Life, a little-known Cy Coleman musical I was obsessed with as a teenager. Still, a great deal of our conversation revolves around the beloved ABC series she starred in. How could it not?
During her episode of What I Wore When, Young details what she wore to audition for Scandal—and how she had a precise vision for the w…

By now there’s nothing too new to say about the career of cook and author Alison Roman that hasn’t already been said. A millennial proxy for a generation who prefers hanging out to going out, her unfussy approach to cooking—coupled with her authentic persona and pleasing but not too perfect Instagram account—landed her food columns in the New York Times and Bon Appetit and a beloved cookbook, Dining In. When we met, her new cookbook, Nothing Fancy, was a few weeks away from being released—it’s n…

My fascination with Bravo runs deep. The formerly humble, semi-highbrow network was once known for reruns of Twin Peaks and episodes of Inside the Actors’ Studio, but in the early 2000s a seed was planted. Bravo created a “reality” show that followed five gay men making over straight dudes around the country. The rest is pretty much pop-culture history. From the Real Housewives franchise to Southern Charm, the network has spent the last decade or so making legitimate celebrities out of its reali…

When the first episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 aired on Fox in the fall of 1990, the first George Bush was president. The Gulf War had not yet been waged. And a set of fictional twins named Brenda and Brandon Walsh moved to California from Minnesota, igniting a widespread frenzy across the U.S. and a local one inside my childhood bedroom.
I watched the pilot—“Class of Beverly Hills”—crossed-legged on the floor, staring up at the 13-inch television my grandparents had given me that year. I didn’t…

I met Dorit Kemsley last fall during a recording session for Glamour’s podcast What I Wore When, and although I found her to be funny, warm, and game to riff on any topic, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star wasn’t someone I’d expect to be particularly comfortable in front of an oven—this is a woman who told me the (very entertaining) story of why she once had to impulse-buy a $3,000 Alexander McQueen dress. Wrong! When we spoke next—during our nation’s quarantine—the topic at hand was foo…

During the stay-at-home mandate brought by Covid-19, I found book recommendations to be a particularly valuable form of currency, one I both hoarded and traded. I’d clock hours a week scrolling Netgalley and Goodreads, and I frequently found myself texting or Slacking with friends and colleagues about a book I’d posted on Instagram and whether it was really that good. An unexpected byproduct of lockdown, for me, was feeling overwhelmed by the amount of TV shows and movies available, so instead I…

The recent conversation about soaring screen time and its effect on kids has been exhaustive. And exhausting. Should we be alarmed? Yes. No. Set limits. Lower the bar. Think of their retinas. If the last 12 months have proved anything, it’s that—no matter how well-intentioned the internet—I’m not going to find a concrete answer when I google “Am I a bad mother for my letting my child watch a YouTube video of three animated siblings singing about making rainbow Popsicles out of pureed fruit?”

“I was taught very early on that as soon as I was done shooting, you wash your face.” This is one of the first things Tiffani Thiessen tells me when I ask her, over Zoom, whether growing up squarely in the spotlight for over three decades gave her an accelerated awareness of her skin—an invaluable asset to any actress. If you remove the part about the cameras, though, you’ll see that Thiessen—who has starred in several iconic television series including Saved by the Bell and Beverly Hills, 90210…

This story is part of our cover series We Don’t: The Bridesmaid Burnout, in which we explore the role’s often absurd demands, astronomical expenses, copious amounts of unpaid labor, and ways to change the tradition that benefits everybody involved. Read all our stories here.
The financial expectations that come with being a present-day bridesmaid are, to be blunt, psychotic. I have to buy the hideous dress I’ll never wear again in the color you choose? I have to pay for alterations to that dress…

For some country music stars, especially those who have come up during the last decade or so, constantly evoking iconography that’s become synonymous with expectations of the genre can feel performative, rote, maybe even a little absurdist. (Luke Bryan can, in case you didn’t know, wrestle hogs and gators with his two bare hands, hot-wire your tractor, and salt-cure a ham.) But even after a few minutes of conversation over Zoom, it’s clear nothing about Wilson is overly personified—including her…

Everyone, pay attention: That was H.E.R. who joined Usher on stage for a searing electric guitar solo during the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show. It was was not, as some brilliant minds on social media seemed to think, 10-year-old Kim and Kanye progeny North West. H.E.R. might not be as instantly recognizable on a mass scale as some of Usher’s other guest stars who have been performing for 25 years—such as Alicia Keys—but she’s wildly accomplished in her own right. And she’s 26 years old, not 10.…
