Sarah Ferguson’s image has been under scrutiny for the longest, and now the traits that defined her behind the palace walls are coming into the limelight. 

The former Duchess of York has long been linked to controversy, particularly due to her past association with Jeffrey Epstein. While she has kept a low profile amid renewed attention surrounding those ties, revelations about her personal life and behavior continue to emerge.

Author Andrew Lownie has now offered new insight into Ferguson’s lifestyle and the atmosphere surrounding those who worked closely with her.

In a recent interview, Lownie detailed what he claimed it was like working for Ferguson, describing the environment as “absolutely chaotic.”

According to the writer, Ferguson’s unpredictability was a source of tension because “she couldn’t make up her mind” and changed her mind at the last minute.

The author of “Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York” further claimed that her behavior had a serious impact on staff morale, as many employees became emotionally overwhelmed and eventually resigned.

“Very few people stayed,” Lownie told Page Six. “And if they did, it was a sort of 24-hour-a-day job because she has this extraordinary energy and she would be flying off in different places, not very organized.”

The chaos extended beyond staffing issues into her personal habits, with Lownie accusing Ferguson of living extravagantly as she had elaborate meals prepared only to be abandoned moments later.

“Huge waste,” Lownie said. “It’s extraordinary…everything has to be new…Just this Marie Antoinette kind of life, you know, easy come, easy go.”

The royal commentator went on to describe the 66-year-old as “very manipulative,” claiming that she often turned people against one another while drawing them into unusual business ventures.

Sarah Ferguson Reportedly Linked to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs In New Report 

As Lownie continues to portray Ferguson as impulsive and manipulative, fresh allegations connecting her to music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs are adding even more controversy to her public image.

As The Blast reported, the latest claims revealed by insiders alleged that Ferguson shared a private relationship with Combs that began after the pair met at a party hosted by Ghislaine Maxwell in 2002.

Their connection allegedly evolved into a “secret friends with benefits” arrangement by 2004, and the two later traveled together across Europe and Africa while attending lavish events and visiting luxury hotels.

Ferguson Reportedly Hiding Away With Financial Help From Friends

With the new claims about the mom of two involved with Combs, Ferguson is once again facing difficult headlines that threaten to overshadow her efforts to stay out of the spotlight.

When conversations and questions heightened over her and ex-Prince Andrew’s relationship with Epstein, Ferguson was said to be hiding away from public attention. 

Royal commentator Helen Chard suggested that Ferguson has been relying heavily on close friends for emotional and financial support during the difficult period.

“Incognito, anxious Fergie is keeping a low profile,” Chard said, per The Blast. “She cannot believe how low she has sunk, although, contrary to people’s thoughts, she is not destitute. Friends have stepped in to whisk her away from her stress.”

The Royal Was Spotted in Austria Amid Losing Another Honorary Position 

After spending about seven months hiding, the ex-royal stepped back into the public eye as she was seen at a luxury ski resort in Austria. 

According to The Blast, she was seen getting out of a Mercedes near her private chalet in a quiet Alpine town. The sighting marked her return since her last official outing, which was at the funeral of the Duchess of Kent in September 2025.

Her reappearance came shortly after leaders in York voted unanimously to revoke her Freedom of the City honor, which she had held for decades. 

Could Princess Eugenie’s Pregnancy Bring A Positive Turn For The Family?

Amid mounting pressure and damaging headlines, there may still be a hopeful development for Ferguson and her family.

Her daughter, Princess Eugenie, is expecting a child, news that was publicly celebrated by King Charles III and Queen Camilla.

Royal commentator lan Pelham Turner suggested the pregnancy announcement could represent a major “turning point” for the York family.

As The Blast reported, he explained that Eugenie is well-liked within the royal family and has stepped in alongside her sister, Princess Beatrice, when senior royals were unable to attend engagements. 

Turner added that the baby news might mark a “turning point” for Ferguson and Andrew, giving them a chance to move further away from controversy and focus instead on family life.

As a general rule, TV lovers don’t take Easter eggs all that seriously. After all, these are usually nothing more than little in-jokes inserted into an episode by someone trying to keep themselves amused. Every now and then, though, an Easter egg introduces some absolutely game-changing ramifications for a fictional universe. That’s exactly what happened in the Andor episode “Announcement,” but most Star Wars fans didn’t notice because the Easter Egg is almost impossible to read.

By the end of this episode, Cassian Andor is arrested by a Stormtrooper and sentenced to six years in prison despite having committed no crime other than trying to reason with a space cop. Like much of the show, this episode emphasizes the banality of evil and demonstrates how the cogs of fascism are oiled by bureaucracy as much as blood. Look closely at some data plates in this episode, and you can see what various inmates have been arrested for. One hapless prisoner was arrested for “suspected Force sensitivity,” which secretly explains how the Empire kept a stranglehold on the galaxy without firing a single shot.

Hope You Brought Your Decoder Ring

In “Announcement,” the prisoner arrested for suspected Force activity is not an actual character. The name given is Keith Seymoure, which is an homage to an Andor set decoration concept artist of the same name. Of course, you can’t easily read any of this because the data plate in question is written in Aurabesh, the fake language that characters in Star Wars used to communicate in Galactic Basic. If you know how to read Aurabesh (there are a frightening number of guides online), it’s quite easy to translate what the data plates say.

Keith’s plate has two charges listed on it. First, he was charged with assaulting an Imperial officer, which makes sense. The Empire would obviously want to discourage violence against Stormtroopers or other Imperial agents, especially as the influence of the Rebellion grows. The second charge, though, is more intriguing. According to the data plate, Keith was also arrested because authorities suspected he could use the Force.

An Intergalactic Witchhunt

Now, it would theoretically be possible to scan samples of prisoners’ blood for midichlorians to determine whether they were Force-sensitive or not. This is exactly what Qui-Gon Jinn does to verify that Anakin Skywalker is strong in the Force. But we never see Imperials in Andor make an attempt to do so. Given the show’s extremely bleak portrayal of Imperial justice, it seems likely that most officers don’t care if the charge is true or whether or not they can prove it. Instead, this becomes the Star Wars equivalent of an ongoing witch hunt, allowing the Empire to track, arrest, and execute anyone they dislike.

It’s a brilliant strategy, really. In addition to giving the Empire a reason to casually arrest innocent people, a law outlawing Force-sensitives helps keep people scared of the Jedi. This law paints Jedi as criminals and makes people scared of even associating with someone who can use the Force. At the same time, it effectively encourages citizens to report any unusual activity from their friends, family, and neighbors. Over time, this would likely lead to the arrest, interrogation, and execution of more than a few actual Force-sensitives. Mostly, though, this law does what the Empire does best: keeps everyone in line through fear. 

When Revenge of the Sith came out, many of us were shocked that all of these powerful Jedi were taken out by Clone Troopers. As it turns out, magic powers and a laser sword can only do so much when enough people are shooting at you. Now, Andor has revealed that Jedi can be defeated by something far more insidious than military might: nosy neighbors. Thanks to this law, anyone can be arrested at any time and held indefinitely for “crimes” they didn’t even commit. Is this terrifying stuff? Absolutely. But what else were you expecting from an Empire led by a lightning-shooting monster and his asthmatic robot gimp?

Taylor Sheridan’s name has practically become shorthand for modern television empire-building. Between Yellowstone, Tulsa King, Mayor of Kingstown, and a growing pile of spinoffs, the writer-producer has turned Paramount+ into his personal playground. But buried underneath all the cowboy drama and small-town crime sagas is arguably his most underrated series: Lioness.

Originally released as Special Ops: Lioness in 2023, the spy thriller never generated the same cultural obsession as Sheridan’s ranch dramas. Lioness debuted to a wide spectrum of critical reviews and was generally dismissed as just yet another loud, hyper-masculinized military fantasy; however, it has blossomed over the last two seasons into one of the most compelling titles on Paramount+, featuring an all-star cast, incredibly intense action sequences, and a surprisingly heartfelt foundation. Fortunately for it, the official announcement of Season 3 will allow many more potential viewers to catch up.

‘Lioness’ Turns a Familiar Spy Formula Into Something More Personal

Image via Paramount+

The story of Lioness centers on Joe McNamara (Zoe Saldaña), who is a senior CIA Agent overseeing an undercover program that places women in the inner circles of high-risk targets. The summary sounds exactly like regular post-9/11 espionage TV shows. The show, however, works because it focuses on the individuals trapped in these operations.

Season 1 follows Cruz Manuelos (Laysla De Oliveira), an ex-marine who was recruited into the program after she escaped from an abusive relationship. She has been assigned to get close to Aaliyah (Stephanie Nur), the daughter of a terrorist financier, while trying to manage the emotional consequences of lying to someone she is beginning to form an attachment to. Sheridan develops the season around this emotional conflict rather than relying solely on explosions and tactical jargon.

That emotional conflict gives Lioness more bite than many modern action thrillers. Cruz is not treated like a disposable action figure, and neither is Joe, whose increasingly fractured home life becomes just as important as the missions themselves. Some of the show’s strongest scenes have nothing to do with firefights at all. They’re arguments in kitchens, exhausted phone calls, or moments where Joe realizes she’s becoming a stranger to her own family.

Zoe Saldaña Gives One of the Best Performances of Her Career

Image via Paramount+

Saldaña has been at the helm of multiple billion-dollar franchises for several years, but Lioness offers her an opportunity to portray a different kind of character. Joe is brilliant, but she is also angry and exhausted, living on almost constant adrenaline. Saldaña plays Joe as someone who has been so tense in every muscle of her body for so long that she appears almost like a puppet. The reason that the performance works is that there is no romanticized version of Joe. She is good at her job to the point of obsession; however, throughout the story, it becomes clear that her career has taken a massive social and personal toll on Joe’s life. There are moments when reality seems almost too heavy — Sheridan leans into Joe’s military bravado, but Saldaña keeps the character grounded enough that the emotional consequences of that fall are felt.

Laysla De Oliveira is equally strong as Cruz. The first season lives or dies on whether viewers buy the connection between Cruz and Aaliyah, and De Oliveira sells every second of it. Her scenes carry a vulnerability that cuts through the show’s heavier tactical elements. As for the supporting cast, Nicole Kidman and Morgan Freeman could have easily phoned in roles like these, but both bring a sharpness to the series’ political side. Michael Kelly also slides naturally into Sheridan’s world of morally compromised officials and backroom power plays.

Season 2 Is Where ‘Lioness’ Really Finds Its Identity

Image via Paramount+

Lioness was well-received in Season 2 after criticism at the beginning of its run in Season 1. After the show found its flow and consistency, the same critics who wrote Lioness off initially are now seeing it in a new light. The change in perception can be attributed to greater confidence among the showrunners as the scope of the political intrigue and the character development continue to evolve. The show is moving away from a straight anti-terrorist thriller and is truly embracing the fact that it presents women as protagonists in a male-dominated genre without reducing them to caricatures or stereotypes.

The pacing and the brutality of the fight scenes also increase as the show progresses. Sheridan stages combat with an almost documentary-style intensity. The rescue mission that opens Season 2 is one of the most tense action sequences he’s directed outside Sicario. At the same time, the show gets better at slowing down when it needs to. Joe’s growing disillusionment with her job gives the second season more weight, especially as her family starts questioning the life she’s chosen.

Beneath all the gunfire and covert operations is a show about burnout, patriotism, sacrifice, and the emotional damage left behind by endless war. It may never become as massive as Yellowstone, but Lioness deserves far more attention than it gets. Few streaming thrillers move this fast while still giving their characters room to breathe. Even fewer manage to make hardened operatives feel genuinely human.

Brandi Glanville believes that she might have contracted “sexually transmitted ringworm.”

“I have a quick question. Have you heard about sexually transmitted ringworm?” Glanville, 53, asked podcast guest Lisa Ann on the Thursday, May 21, episode of her “Brandi Unfiltered” show. “I feel like I have it … in my throat.”

Ringworm is a fungal infection that can affect the hair, skin or nails, according to the CDC. It can spread through skin-to-skin or sexual contact, which causes more severe infections.

“It’s one of these things that most people don’t know what to look for,” Ann, an author and media personality, claimed. “We had to train our makeup artists that when a new member of talent would show up, they would have to get naked in a window where there’s good light and they would inspect their body to see if they see any patches because it’s incredibly contagious.”

Brandi Glanville is ready for her close-up after a years-long struggle with what she has described as a face parasite. Glanville, 53, shared a new Instagram photo on Sunday, January 25, after undergoing a cosmetic procedure. The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was seen beaming in the snap, which also features healthcare strategist […]

As for Glanville, she believes that she allegedly contracted the infection after dating “somebody in that industry.”

“He would only, you know, my face … because he didn’t want to get me pregnant,” she said, without identifying her date. “He didn’t know that ship had sailed. I’m like, ‘OK, whatever, I’m not going to correct you. Alright, honey.’ And in my mouth in all that, [then] my girlfriend told me about it yesterday. I knew nothing about it.”

Glanville said that she already underwent multiple tests to find out if she had a sexually transmitted disease in her throat, which came back negative.

“I really just heard about ringworm yesterday, and they can apparently … burrow in, like, if it’s in your throat,” the Bravo alum said. “If it’s in your throat, they can burrow deep into your ears and all that.”

Lockout begins with Guy Pearce being punched in the face. He’s playing an operative named Snow, and he’s unfazed by the blood dripping down his face. He’s rewarded for each of his witty retorts with another punch, but he keeps right on quipping, keeps right on taking those punches. 2012’s Lockout is that kind of action movie.

With a genius performance, Guy Pearce created one of the best action heroes since John McClane; unfortunately, he’s wasted in a mediocre prison-break movie that just happens to be set in outer space. Lockout could have been the next Escape from New York. Snow is everything you’d want in a modern-day Snake Plissken, but for most of its running time, Lockout fails to muster up the energy necessary to match its dynamic lead character.

In Space, No One Can Hear You Escape

The plot involves a maximum security prison floating in near-Earth orbit. Why keep a prison outside our atmosphere? It’s not to keep the inmates in check since all the prisoners are kept unconscious. That’s the biggest problem with Lockout: it’s set in outer space for no real reason other than that someone thought that might be fun. It doesn’t make much sense, but they were right; it is.

The prisoners find a way to regain consciousness and quickly seize control of their maximum-security space station. As luck would have it, the prison takeover coincides with an inspection by the president’s daughter (Maggie Grace). She’s quickly taken hostage. To get her out, they’ll need the craziest badass planet Earth has to offer, and as we’ve learned by watching a guy named Rupert punch him in the face, that’s definitely Snow.

Going Fast And Slow

Watching Guy Pearce insult, mock, and blow up everyone who gets in his way is a delight. Worth the price of admission. But as an action movie, sometimes Lockout doesn’t know what level it’s supposed to work at.

Some of it moves so blazingly fast that it’s almost impossible to follow what’s going on. A high-speed chase on Earth is reduced to a series of random blurs, probably to hide bad computer-generated FX, but whatever the reason, it’s a mess.

Up on the space station, things move more slowly and boil down to a lot of skulking around in air ducts. I really wish action movies would find something other than air ducts to use.

Guy Pearce Makes Lockout A Must-See

Pearce is electric, and the outer-space elements, when they’re moving at a reasonable speed, add an admittedly unnecessary but entirely fun secondary layer to what’s going on. With a little work, maybe this could have been the next Demolition Man; instead, it’s a mid-level action movie with an unforgettable character who keeps getting punched and then gets back up to quip again.

Mid-level or not, Lockout is worth watching for Guy Pearce. Those quips are dynamite.

Sued For Being Too Much Like A Great Movie

Lockout’s similarities to Escape From New York aren’t just my opinion; it’s the opinion of French courts. John Carpenter, Escape From New York co-writer Nick Castle, and rights holder StudioCanal sued in France, arguing that Luc Besson and EuropaCorp had plagiarized their film.

In 2015, a French court agreed and awarded €80,000 in damages, far below the roughly €3 million the plaintiffs had reportedly sought. Besson appealed, but in 2016 a Paris appeals court not only upheld the ruling, it increased the damages to €450,000, finding that Lockout had “massively borrowed key elements” from Carpenter’s 1981 film.

Besson’s side argued the movie was just working in familiar genre territory and that Escape From New York had influences of its own, but the court was not persuaded. It was a rare case where the usual “homage or rip-off?” debate around genre movies became an actual legal defeat.

Why Lockout Failed

At the box office, Lockout never found much traction. Released in April 2012 by Open Road Films, the movie opened to just over $6 million domestically and quickly disappeared from theaters, finishing its U.S. run with around $14 million. Worldwide grosses pushed it past $32 million against a reported budget in the neighborhood of $20 million, meaning it wasn’t a total financial disaster, but it also wasn’t the kind of return needed to launch the sci-fi action franchise EuropaCorp appeared to be aiming for.

The film arrived at a time when audiences were becoming increasingly selective about theatrical sci-fi, with mid-budget originals squeezed between giant superhero spectacles and established franchises. In another era, Lockout probably would have become a reliable sleeper hit on VHS or cable. In 2012, it mostly got buried.

Critically, the response landed in the familiar “fun but dumb” territory surrounding many Luc Besson-produced action movies of the era. The Fifth Element mastermind Luc Besson produced and served as co-writer in Lockout, but didn’t direct it, which might explain some of its problems.

Fans Previously Peeped Keyanna Joseph Reacting To Big Mama’s Pregnancy

Despite what the internet might think, Keyanna Joseph has seemingly shown love to Latto before. In March, she appeared to support Latto amid her pregnancy announcement. At the time, fans speculated that Latto might be expecting her first child after she went MIA for a minute. She then popped back up on social media, teasing a short visual that only showed her shoes and featured her feeding a baby cheetah. While folks tried to figure out whether she planned to drop new music or a baby announcement, it turned out to be both! Shortly after Big Mama’s reveal, fans peeped that Keyanna double-tapped Latto’s teaser clip. She didn’t drop a comment, but folks instantly started trying to figure out whether she cosigned or was confirming Latto and 21’s status.

One of the coolest things about Star Trek is that this franchise has had plenty of world-building from the very beginning. Some concepts, such as faster-than-light travel, are grounded in real-world scientific theories, but the writers and producers had to figure out how those scientific ideas would advance within the next few centuries. For example, how would these future explorers classify the different worlds they have discovered? The Original Series gave us a partial answer, revealing that Earth-like worlds are referred to as M-class planets.

This designation was still used in The Next Generation by Captain Picard and his crew, and the term was repeated in spinoffs like Deep Space Nine and Voyager. However, after decades of hearing this term, fans began to ask the obvious questions: what does “M-class” even mean? Where does the term come from, and when did Starfleet begin using it? Eventually, these mysteries were answered by “Strange New World,” a forgotten episode from the much-maligned spinoff Star Trek: Enterprise.

A Not-So-Strange New World

In the Enterprise episode “Strange New World,” the crew has only recently begun their trek through the stars. They encounter a planet with an Earth-like atmosphere and decide to check it out. When a nasty storm approaches, some of the crew (including Tucker and Mayweather) suggest taking shelter in a cave. But things go from bad to worse when they start seeing creepy creatures inside the cave and become paranoid that T’Pol is hiding things from them. In a weird twist, it turns out there were no hostile aliens on the planet: just some wacky pollen that made everyone hallucinate. We get a relatively happy ending, and everyone gets an antidote and lives to trek another day.

So, what does this weird tale of trippy space pollen have to do with Star Trek history? It’s actually the very first episode in the franchise to spell out that the “M” in “Class M” stands for “Minshara Class.” Where did this exotic name come from, though? The Vulcans, of course. “Strange New World” reveals that “Minshara-Class” was the term used for Earth-like planets by Vulcan explorers who (at the time) gathered info from probes rather than planetary scans. Captain Archer’s Enterprise became the first Starfleet vessel to adopt the terminology, which became standard fleetwide within three years.

Setting A New Starfleet Standard

Thanks to Archer’s early adventures in episodes like “Strange New World,” Starfleet had a handy way to classify Earth-like planets. This was important because, according to the Original Series episode “Balance of Terror,” there are likely around three million such planets in the Milky Way galaxy. While Enterprise helped fans learn what M-class actually means, we are still left with a few questions. For example, the Next Generation established that there were four levels of M-class planets. While this is likely used to differentiate different planetary environments (like the arid Vulcan, the rainy Ferenginar, and the downright tropical Risa), this has never been confirmed by the franchise.

Enterprise is a much better show than fans think, and it’s definitely worth watching for these deep dives into franchise lore. Thanks to this show, we know just how much early Starfleet was indebted to the Vulcans, adopting those aliens’ planetary classification schema and using it for centuries. Honestly, that was probably a better choice than letting a space cowboy like Kirk pick the planetary designations. If Star Trek (2009) is any indicator, he’d probably call them “BB-class planets,” and we’d have to wait four decades to learn that the “BB” stands for “Beastie Boys.” Then again, who knows more than Kirk about how to fight for your right to (landing) party?

Demi Moore is embarking on a confident and fulfilling new chapter in her life, striking a balance between personal freedom, family, and continued career success.

The 63-year-old actress, who has not been publicly linked to a partner since 2022, is reportedly enjoying a social dating life while prioritizing independence.

In recent interviews and appearances, Demi Moore has also opened up about aging, while turning heads with a striking new, shorter hairstyle at Cannes and other fashion events.

Demi Moore has not been publicly linked to a new partner since her 2022 split from Swiss chef Daniel Humm, but sources say the actress has still been enjoying an active and social romantic life.

An insider claims the 63-year-old “Substance” star remains drawn to “very attractive men in their thirties and early forties,” and “has no problem reeling them in.”

According to the source, Moore enjoys the confidence and visibility she has in this stage of life and takes a selective approach to dating, preferring companionship without pressure or long-term expectations.

“It takes her time to vet a guy, but when she finds one she likes, she tends to keep him around, so she’s now got a little roster … she can call on when she’s in the mood,” they added about Moore, per Star Magazine.

The Actress’ Already Has All The Companionship She Could Ever Want’ In Her Family And Friends

Moore has been married three times. First to musician Freddy Moore, then to movie star Bruce Willis, with whom she had three daughters, Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah, before their divorce in 2000.

She went on to have an eight-year marriage with Ashton Kutcher, which eventually ended in divorce in 2013.

Speaking more about Moore’s mindset on men and romance, the source noted that she no longer seeks “partner” as she “has all the companionship she could ever want in her life between her daughters and her friends.”

“[Moore] doesn’t need a partner. She needs lovers, so that’s what she’s got,” they continued, adding, “She jokes it’s one of her anti-aging secrets!”

Demi Moore Celebrates Career Highs And Personal Fulfillment

In recent interviews, Moore has shifted focus toward personal fulfillment, family, and self-acceptance.

In a 2025 appearance on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” the 63-year-old actress celebrated a successful year that included her performance in “The Substance,” her role in “Landman,” and being named one of Glamour’s Women of the Year.

She described this period as deeply fulfilling, adding that getting older has expanded rather than diminished her sense of joy and purpose.

“I just feel like this is an amazing time, and anybody who thinks that getting older means life is less is sadly mistaken,” she said.

Moore has also spoken candidly about aging during the press tour for “The Substance,” a film exploring youth, beauty, and identity.

The actress said she has worked through years of self-criticism and now approaches herself with greater acceptance and a positive mindset about getting older.

At the Gotham Awards, Moore reflected on this shift, explaining that she now sees herself more fully rather than through appearance alone.

She also emphasized how her perspective on life has softened with time, allowing her to appreciate herself with more kindness.

“I see myself and the fullness of who I am as opposed to just the external idea of who I am,” she explained.

In a 2024 appearance on “Today,” Moore also highlighted how meaningful it has been to watch her daughters, Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah, grow into adulthood, describing this stage of life as one of independence and freedom.

She said she feels excited to continue redefining her path, even if she doesn’t yet know exactly where it will lead.

“We are what the future is for women, and I look at having my daughters, and I don’t want [it] to ever be in their minds that there is an end,” the actress stated.

Demi Moore Debuts Short Hair Transformation At Cannes Film Festival In Glamorous Red Carpet Look

More recently, Moore made a striking appearance at the premiere of “La Bola Negra” during the 79th Cannes Film Festival on May 21, debuting a noticeably shorter hairstyle that marked a fresh shift from her signature long locks.

The 63-year-old actress wore a floor-length sapphire blue gown featuring an oversized bow detail and a subtle train, designed by Self-Portrait under creative director Han Chong and crafted in the label’s London atelier. She completed the look with a bold statement necklace and black sling-back heels.

According to People Magazine, what drew even more attention was her new shoulder-length lob, styled in soft, voluminous curls with a side part, giving her a modern, elegant update for the red carpet.

This isn’t the first time Moore has surprised fans with a shorter look. Earlier in the year at Milan Fashion Week, she appeared at Gucci’s FW26 show with a sleek wet-look bob, created by celebrity hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos, who nicknamed the style the “Demi-tris Bob.”
