If you’ve watched the Olympics, you may have wondered to yourself: Are Olympic medals real gold? And if they are, how much is an Olympic medal worth if an Olympian chose to sell theirs? We break down those answers ahead.
Though the Olympic Games started in ancient Greece, the first Olympic medal wasn’t given until the 1896 Olympics in Athens, Greece, where winners were given a silver medal and an olive branch.
Kim Kardashian launched Skims in 2019, and her sleek, barely-there shapewear has continued to break the internet since; even now, the waitlist for anything trendy is, and I'm only slightly exaggerating, a trillion years long. I, like so many others, was drawn to the brand's slinky lounge dress, which has been consistently sold out in most sizes and colors since it launched. Despite stalking the website every day and signing up for alerts, I never managed to snag the now TikTok-viral dress in my size.
Appropriate gala attire? Well, according to Kim Kardashian, waist-high spandex boots and a furry coat straight from Balecianga’s pre-Fall 2024 collection fit the bill.
The Skims founder made an appearance at the 2024 Lo Máximo Awards, held in Los Angeles, on Thursday night. For the occasion, Kardashian made formal attire uniquely her own. She opted for full-out, ’60s-leaning glam via a delightfully shaggy black coat, which she wore off the shoulder, with an exposed decolletage and seemingly no top.
There is no limit to the protective hairstyles you can choose from nowadays, but goddess locs should rank high on your list. Designed in partnership with actress Meagan Good and hairstylist Dr. Kari Williams, this gorgeous style was inspired by none other than Lisa Bonet.
Goddess locs themselves are distinguishable from other traditional loc extensions due to their freeform look and curled ends. “I believe that this style gives people—both men and women—the opportunity to experience the beauty of locs without the long-term commitment,” Williams says.
John chose to remain with his partner, Paul Atkins, after falling for his dance partner Bake Off star and Strictly Come Dancing runner-up John Whaite made headlines in August after revealing that he fells in love with his dance partner, Johannes Radebe, while they competed together on the hit competition - and that he and his fiancé took some time out after the show.
Johannes has previously also opened up about his love for John, admitting that he was in love with his former dance partner in an interview back in 2022.
