Chrissy Teigen posted a skin-baring selfie on social media to remind her fans to schedule their routine health screenings.
On Thursday, the former FABLife host shared a topless photo on Instagramas she took her 42 million followers on a journey with her to the doctor’s office for her mammogram and breast ultrasound.

“Mammogram/boob ultrasound reminder!” she captioned the post. “When else do you get to see your boob as a one inch steak!? Ultrasound also comes with free titty lotion good for the entire day!!”
Mammograms are X-ray pictures of the breasts that can help detect breast cancer early on, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women and affects one in eight women in the United States, per the American Cancer Society.
Last month, she shared details about undergoing her first colonoscopy on her Instagram Stories, urging her followers to do the same even if they are her age or “a little younger.”
“Soon there’s going to be a very large jump in people my age and even a little younger getting colon cancer because we don’t get checked,” Chrissy explained. “And we don’t get checked because we’re not told to. You think that your parents are the ones that get checked.”
“I have my first colonoscopy tomorrow because I was told by my doctor that people are getting it younger and younger and they should go in earlier and earlier to get checked now,” she added.
After her procedure wrapped up, she shared an update with her followers: “I just woke up from my colonoscopy and I feel great. It took like 20 minutes. I honestly wish it took longer because it was a good nap.”
On Sunday, Amy shared an update with her Instagram followers on Sunday about her second round of the treatment.
“[I] wanted to be open and honest with you all from start,” she began. “So, this cycle, I started feeling sick soon as second lot of ‘red devil’ was going in.
“Got home very tired and started being sick (even with all the anti-sickness). By Friday afternoon the sickness stopped and just waves of nausea. Still taking anti-sickness now.”

Amy added that she was missing out on a sleep as a result of steroids she was taking, and was also experiencing mouth ulcers.
She continued: “What I’ve found harder this time round and the last few days is the hair shredding […] As much as I prepared myself, waking up everyday gently combing my hair with a wide comb and seeing what comes out is just heartbreaking personally for me.
“I’m only washing my hair once, max twice, a week, not using any heat on my hair or styling it so I just don’t feel like me. So it’s time to bring out the wig I say, and get used to this and help me feel like me.
“I know this won’t last forever, but during this time, and knowing normally these few months are my favourite time of the year, and I feel myself wishing these months away just hurts so much.

“I know [and I am] telling myself the way you look hasn’t changed Amy who I am inside ([I] still have my chatty annoying spells, mad ideas, determination and want to help others). I’m still Amy!
“Some days last week I’d wake and for the first few seconds you forget, then suddenly it all hits you, the day and challenges ahead, and your new reality, and it’s tough. [I’ve] had a few morning cry’s [sic] and [I’m] learning that’s OK too.
“But I’ve got some dates in the diary on my good periods I’m working towards, and I feel this will really help me and the person I am. Something to look forward and work towards. [I] know through the other side I’ll become a better, stronger person and will feel and look like Amy again!”
Amy ended her message by thanking people for their “lovely messages asking how I am”.
“I want to be open and honest and hopefully help others going through or those supporting those on their journeys too!” She wrote.
“I read them all, just don’t always have the energy to reply but I want you to know it really helps, and means more than you will every know! Not taken for granted and really appreciated and noticed! You truly see how lucky you are to have with amazing loved ones around you! Love to you all.”

Although Amy’s treatment means she will not be well enough to compete on Strictly when it returns to our screens next month, she previously shared that she wanted to be “present” during live shows “in some way”.
“If I have to have chemotherapy, I’ll be present in some way, even if I’m in a wig,” she insisted to The Mirror back in June. “I know amazing hair people with Strictly.
“Whether it’s on It Takes Two, or being up in Claudia’s area waiting for the scores, I’ll be there.”
Amy joined Strictly in 2017, and during that time has been partnered with stars including actor Danny John-Jules, EastEnders stars Brian Conley and James Bye, Invictus Games athlete JJ Chalmers, McFly singer Tom Fletcher and presenter Karim Zeroual, with whom she reached the Strictly final back in 2019.
Last year, she performed with CBeebies regular George Webster on the show’s annual Christmas special.
Can you feel the Kenergy? Thanks to a frankly scene-stealing turn as Barbie’s existential crisis-ridden, beach-loving boyfriend in Greta Gerwig’s billion dollar movie, Ryan Gosling has once again proved that he’s one of the most versatile film stars around right now.
Heartbreaking leading man? Tap-dancing musical performer? Oscar-nominated indie star? A plastic doll who is convinced the patriarchy is all about riding horses (this one probably makes more sense if you’ve seen Barbie, which we implore you to do if you haven’t already)? The man can do it all.

And when it comes to hitting the red carpet, the chat show circuit or awards shows, he never seems to take himself (or his fame) too seriously.

If you’re ever in need of an instant pick-me-up, may I direct you to Alison Hammond’s legendary This Morning interview with Ryan and his Blade Runner 2049 co-star Harrison Ford?
Alison set the tone by admitting she’s never seen the original Blade Runner movie and then describing her interviewing technique as “bleak, dystopian, [and] an absolute nightmare to be honest with you”, before the whole thing got progressively more chaotic, with Ryan pouring out a miniature whiskey, collapsing into giggles and pretending to walk off camera in outrage.

2. When he organised a Ken flashmob for Greta Gerwig’s birthday
What better way to celebrate a milestone birthday and a huge box office success than with a themed flashmob, tbh?
When Barbie director Greta Gerwig turned 40 earlier this month, Ryan marked the occasion by sending a group of dancing Kens to turn up at her Pilates class to throw shapes to his song I’m Just Ken, who were later joined by a squad of Barbies to perform a routine to Dance The Night, another favourite from the film’s soundtrack.
By the end of this extravaganza, which was captured on film and shared on the Barbie movie’s Instagram account, Greta seems to be crying happy tears, and we don’t blame her one bit.
3. When he took his Kenergy to the Barbie red carpet

Any one of Ryan’s red carpet appearances during the Barbie press tour would be deserving of a spot on this list, like when he told reporters how to best channel their Kenergy and reminded them they are, in fact, “Kenough”.
But if we had to pick a favourite, it would be this run-in with reporter Amelia Dimoldenberg, who asked Ryan about the best way to find a Ken of her own. He then advised her to drop something, suggesting that a true Ken will pick it up before quickly moving on so as not to invade your space – which inevitably lead to Amelia dropping her notecards.
Proving he’s a true Ken at heart, he picked them up, saying: ‘Here, you dropped this’, before walking off.
4. When he paid tribute to Eva Mendes in his Golden Globes speech…

After picking up the Golden Globe trophy for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy for his role in La La Land back in 2017, Ryan used his winner’s speech to shout out his partner Eva Mendes.

“I’d like to try and thank one person properly, and to say that while I was singing and dancing and playing piano and having one of the best experiences I’ve ever had on a film, my lady was raising our daughter, pregnant with our second and trying to help her brother fight his battle with cancer,” he said. “If she hadn’t taken all that on so that I could have this experience, it would surely be someone else up here other than me today.”
5. And at the Barbie premiere

OK, we said we’d only pick one Barbie red carpet moment, but this one is too sweet to skip over.
Ryan and Eva rarely attend high-profile events together, but at the film’s LA premiere, he found a way to pay tribute to his wife through his outfit, accessorising his pink suit with a chain necklace featuring a letter ‘E’ pendant (in the iconic Barbie font, of course).

We’ve seen Ryan’s love of dogs. So now it’s time to appreciate… Ryan stepping in to mediate between some puppies.
When he and Barbie co-star Margot Robbie sat down to film a Q&A with Buzzfeed, accompanied by a gang of extremely tiny, extremely adorable puppies, Ryan ended up getting sidetracked when he noticed that one dog in particular kept getting caught up in scraps with his fellow dogs.
Seeing Ryan very politely remonstrating with the puppy in question, calling him “my dude”, is something we didn’t know we needed.

Back in the day, Ryan was an all-singing, all-dancing, metallic Hammer-pants wearing child star – a fact that talk show hosts just love to remind him of, as it gives them a good excuse to pull some video evidence from the archive.
And so during a 2017 appearance on The Graham Norton Show, Ryan was a pretty good sport when Graham’s producers dug out a clip showing him dancing to Cathy Dennis’s Touch Me, the only male performer in an otherwise all-girl troupe.
“They let me dance there for free because I was a guy, because if you had a guy, you would win,” he explained.
How old was he at the time of the performance? “Old enough to know better,” he sighed.

We’d heard him sing on The Mickey Mouse Club as a kid, and during his role as jazz pianist Sebastian in La La Land, but surely Ryan’s most groundbreaking contribution to the world of music came when he recorded I’m Just Ken.

The simultaneously hysterical and heartbreaking 80s-stye power ballad that crops up during the third act of the Barbie movie, and features the immortal rhyming couplet “I’m just Ken / Anywhere else I’d be a 10”, capturing the pathos of being Barbie’s essentially superfluous boyfriend.
We don’t know whether to laugh or cry when we hear it – although seeing Ryan emoting while wearing that ridiculous fur coat and headband combo nudges us towards the former.

Ryan proves his low-key comedy genius in this Saturday Night Live sketch, in which he plays a man tortured by a great cinematic mystery of the modern age: why did Avatar director James Cameron use Papyrus font for the logo of his multi-billion dollar movie?
“He just highlighted Avatar, he clicked the drop-down menu and then he just randomly selected Papyrus, like a thoughtless child,” Ryan’s character tells his therapist (played by his future Barbie co-star Kate McKinnon) as he tries to get to the heart of his obsession. “Was it laziness, was it cruelty?” he asks, pondering Cameron’s motivation, before exploding into an Oscar clip-worthy meltdown when a well-meaning friend tells him that the film’s team “clearly modified” the original typeface.

“Whatever they did, it wasn’t enough,” he fumes. There’s also shades of self-pitying I’m Just Ken-energy at play here, which just makes it funnier.
The actor became the official face of Dior’s new J’Adore fragrance last year and has seemingly been accused of going under the knife ever since. In an interview Friday with Allure, the 48-year-old put those sleuths in their place.
“My face is changing, and I love that my face is changing and aging,” she told the outlet. “[But] people think I had a facelift. They’re like, ‘What did she do to her face?’ I’m like, ’Bitch, I’m just aging! It doesn’t mean I got bad plastic surgery. This is just what happens.”
Theron won Hollywood over in the 1990s with roles in The Devil’s Advocate and The Astronaut’s Wife, and scored an Oscar for her role in Monster (2003), where she gained 40 pounds to portray serial killer Aileen Wuornos.

Theron quickly shed that weight “overnight” as a 27-year-old but realised her metabolism had slowed after gaining 35 pounds for “Tully” (2018) and needing an entire year to lose it. The mother of two is now most interested in challenging Hollywood’s beauty standards.
“I’ve always had issues with the fact that men kind of age like fine wines and women like cut flowers,” Theron told Allure. “I despise that concept and I want to fight against it, but I also think women want to age in a way that feels right to them.”
Theron urged people to “be a little bit more empathetic” about everybody’s unique “journey.”

Theron ultimately mourns her 25-year-old body “more than my face” and told the outlet she misses being able to perform stunts “and not even hurt tomorrow” — and said she “can’t walk” if she goes to the gym after taking a seemingly trivial three-day break.

The native South African is fortunately distracted from these issues regularly by her kids.
Theron said her eldest was recently “so embarrassed” after spotting one of her Dior ads and told her: “All my friends are gonna see this. I mean, can you just wear a shirt?” While she’s since taken her fame in stride, Theron wants the dialogue around aging to mature.
“I think we need to be a little bit more empathetic to how we all go through our journey,” she told Allure. “My journey of having to see my face on a billboard is quite funny now.”
Adele made a New York couple’s visit to Las Vegas extra special by helping them with a very personal announcement.
Viral footage captured over the weekend shows the 16-time Grammy winner halting a performance of her blockbuster residency, Weekends With Adele, to reveal the sex of Chris Dare and Shantelle Lord’s baby.

The pair – who travelled from Newburgh, New York – attended Adele’s performance at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace on Saturday bearing a custom-made flag that read: “Adele will you do our gender reveal?”
Once the flag caught Adele’s eye, she tore into a sealed envelope that had been handed to her by the couple, after which she proclaimed: “Shantelle and Chris are having a baby boy!”
After the crowd erupted into applause, Adele became visibly teary before making a request of her own.

“That’s so emotional, oh, my God,” she said, adding: “If and when I get pregnant, will you do my gender reveal?”
Dare uploaded footage of the moment on his TikTok and Instagram accounts and thanked Adele for her assistance.
“POV: Adele did our gender reveal,” he wrote on Instagram. “Adele, you are amazing and we will remember this night for the rest of our lives.”
Adele kicked off the second leg of Weekends With Adele” last month, and has said she plans to commemorate the show with a live concert special.
The singer is the mother of a 10-year-old son, Angelo, whom she shares with ex-husband Simon Konecki. She’s currently in a relationship with sports agent Rich Paul, and has been open about her desire to have another child.

Leonard Bernstein’s family has issued a statement responding to the backlash surrounding Bradley Cooper wearing a prosthetic nose to play the Jewish composer in forthcoming biopic Maestro.
The trailer for the Netflix film, which debuted on Tuesday evening, sparked controversy, with many fans criticising the move for supporting antisemitic stereotypes, while others suggested a Jewish actor should have been cast in the role instead.

Actor Tracy-Ann Oberman was among those who commented on social media, writing on Instagram: “If Bradley Cooper green lights your film to play the Jewish composer Bernstein and you want him over a Jewish A-lister who can equally play that role – then let Bradley Cooper’s acting be so magnificent and truthful that the character of Bernstein shines through what he already looks like.”
“If Bradley Cooper can’t do it through the power or acting alone then don’t cast him – get a Jewish actor,” she added.

Leonard Bernstein’s children, Jamie, Alexander, and Nina, have now responded to the backlash in a statement they shared on the Instagram account for their father’s estate.

They wrote: “Bradley Cooper included the three of us along every step of his amazing journey as he made his film about our father.
“We were touched to the core to witness the depth of his commitment, his loving embrace of our father’s music, and the sheer open-hearted joy he brought to his exploration. It breaks our hearts to see any misrepresentations or misunderstandings of his efforts.
“It happens to be true that Leonard Bernstein had a nice, big nose. Bradley chose to use makeup to amplify his resemblance, and we’re perfectly fine with that. We’re also certain that our dad would have been fine with it as well.
“Any strident complaints around this issue strike us above all as disingenuous attempts to bring a successful person down a notch ― a practice we observed all too often perpetrated on our own father.”

They continued: “At all times during the making of this film, we could feel the profound respect and yes, the love that Bradley brought to his portrait of Leonard Bernstein and his wife, our mother Felicia.
“We feel so fortunate to have had this experience with Bradley, and we can’t wait for the world to see his creation.”
HuffPost UK has contacted representatives for Netflix and Bradley Cooper for additional comment.
Maestro tells the complex love story between Leonard – who was the conductor and composer behind works such as West Side Story – and Felicia Cohn Montealegre, who is played by Carey Mulligan.
Throughout their romance, which spanned more than 30 years, they had two engagements, a 25-year marriage and three children, as Bernstein tried to come to terms with his sexuality.

Bradley has also written the screenplay, and is serving as a producer and director on the film.
Maestro is set to be released in select cinemas in November, before it begins streaming on Netflix in December.
However, in June, the Queen of Pop was admitted to hospital due to a “serious bacterial infection” and spent time in ICU.
As a result, Madonna’s manager announced the singer would “need to pause all commitments, which includes the tour” while she recovered.
On Tuesday evening, it was revealed that the North American leg of the tour would begin in December in New York, with the majority of dates having now been postponed until early 2024.
A select few tour dates – including performances in Tulsa, Nashville, San Francisco, Las Vegas and Phoenix – have also been cancelled altogether due to “scheduling conflicts”.
“Getting all shows rescheduled was the number one priority,” a press release explained.
“Unfortunately, due to scheduling conflicts a few shows […] will be canceled. Madonna regrets the inconvenience to fans and hopes to make it up to those markets in the future.”

Madonna – who is celebrating her 65th birthday on Wednesday – will now begin her tour with a string of dates at London’s O2 Arena in October, before taking the show across Europe.
The Papa Don’t Preach star publicly addressed her health scare in an Instagram post weeks after leaving hospital, thanking fans for their “positive energy, prayers and words of healing and encouragement.”

“I have felt your love,” she wrote. “I’m on the road to recovery and incredibly grateful for all the blessings in my life.”
Margot Robbie’s role in Barbie has resonated with millions of fans of the beloved Mattel doll, but the film nearly got a different leading lady: Gal Gadot.
The Australian actor, who was also a producer on the record-breaking movie, first revealed to Vogue back in May ahead of its release, that she and director Greta Gerwig first looked to the Wonder Woman actor to take on the role of Stereotypical Barbie.

But Gal wasn’t available to film at the time.
Gal has since responded to being Margot’s front-runner to play the pink-powered icon. The Israeli actor gushed that she was flattered to be offered the role of the eponymous doll despite not taking it.
“I adore Margot,” Gal recently told Flaunt magazine in an interview that was held before the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.
“Margot is one of those women who you just want to be friends with. She is so funny, warm, fun and smart and obviously so talented. She brings so much to the table. I would love to do anything with Margot and was very touched [by her comments].”

The Heart Of Stone actor added: “She warmed my heart with everything that she said about me. I’m super excited for them, and I’m so excited for Barbie.”
Gal isn’t the only star that Margot and Greta tried to tap to join the massively successful film.
The filmmaker told CinemaBlend before the film hit cinemas that she also tried to get her Lady Bird and Little Women actors Saorise Ronan and Timothée Chalamet to cameo in the movie, but things didn’t quite pan out.
“It was going to be a specialty cameo,” she revealed to the outlet. “I was also going to do a specialty cameo with Timmy. Both of them couldn’t do it and I was so annoyed. But I love them so much. But it felt like doing something without my children. I mean, I’m not their mom, but I sort of feel like their mom.”
With Barbie recently joining the $1 billion club, rumours began flying about a possible sequel, which means Gal might have a chance to visit Barbie Land after all.
Greta further ignited sequel rumors after she told Peopleshe hopes the movie “is the launch of a world and a bunch of different Barbie movies.”

“There’s a tone and a humour and a joy, and obviously the world is so beautiful,” the filmmaker added. “I want to go back to Barbie Land.”
In an interview with The Telegraph, Billy claimed that Harry had been chosen to be the first man to land a solo cover for Vogue because he’s “white and straight”. Harry appeared in the publication’s December 2020 issue in a lacy Gucci gown and a Wales Bonner kilted skirt, among other boundary-smashing looks.
“Non-binary blah blah blah blah. No. It doesn’t feel good to me,” said the Pose actor and singer, whose red carpet looks have made him a gender-fluid fashion icon.

“You’re using my community — or your people are using my community — to elevate you. You haven’t had to sacrifice anything.”
For the record, Harry has never labeled his sexuality in interviews or on social media, though he has only been in public relationships with women.
Billy’s harshest criticisms, however, were directed at “the gatekeepers” that permitted Harry to appear on the cover of Vogue, rather than the pop star himself. That group, he explained, includes the magazine’s longtime editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour.
The Emmy winner said he met with Anna for an interview six months before Harry’s Vogue cover was unveiled. During the Q&A, which took place in front of staff at Vogue’s publisher Condé Nast, Billy claims Anna asked for his input on how to approach the rise of gender-fluid fashion.

“That bitch said to me at the end, ‘How can we do better?’ And I was so taken off guard that I didn’t say what I should have said,” he recalled. In hindsight, he now wishes he would’ve urged the journalist to “use your power as Vogue to uplift the voices of the leaders of this de-gendering of fashion movement”.
Representatives for Vogue did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment.
Billy ― who is currently promoting a new album, Black Mona Lisa ― previously called out Harry and Vogue in a 2021 interview with The Sunday Times.
“I created the conversation [about gender-fluid fashion] and yet Vogue still put Harry Styles, a straight white man, in a dress on their cover for the first time,” he said at the time.
“He doesn’t care, he’s just doing it because it’s the thing to do. This is politics for me. This is my life. I had to fight my entire life to get to the place where I could wear a dress to the Oscars and not be gunned now.”
