What’s the connection between Ranveer Singh’s birthday suit bravado for an international magazine and Cosmopolitan? The shoot pays homage to Burt Reynold’s now-iconic photoshoot that appeared in a 1972 April issue of Cosmopolitan. The story goes that then editor, Helen Gurly Brown wanted Reynolds to be a part of the magazine’s first-ever male centrefold after his biggest film, Deliverance came out, and had pitched the idea as a “milestone in the sexual revolution.” She later said, “At the time, you know, men liked to look at a women naked. Well, nobody talked about it, but women liked to look at…

10 minutes into scrolling through bad, jackhammer-y porn, I was ready to give up. I was horny and desperate to get off to something that was not so performative or obviously filtered through the male gaze. I wanted to see a real person experiencing genuine, orgasmic pleasure. A real person like…well, me. And that is when I realised I’d never find that someone in any video unless that someone was actually me.I did not have the interest (or the time, let’s be real) to attempt to get myself cast in some kind of off-Broadway version of a porn shoot, but…

In the first ever Metaverse Fashion Week held in February this year, Kanye West’s Gap Engineered by Balenciaga drew inspiration from music, culture, art, and video game aesthetics to become a hot favourite. There has been a lot of chatter around how effective product launches in the metaverse actually are in augmenting sales, but if the numbers released by Edited’s global retail data are anything to go by, you know the physical and real world are converging. Micro-mini skirts inspired by Miu Miu’s viral set on female gaming avatars, were up by 56 percent, leather was up by 58 percent,…

Beauty girls, take note. If smooth, spotless skin is what you desire—perhaps, jumping on a structured skincare routine will do you some good. Agreed, your skin concerns are yours alone, but that in no way means that taking a cue or two from a celebrity won’t bore you with a couple of beauty benefits. Actor Kriti Sanon recently revealed her morning skincare routine, and hawk-eyed beauty girls—and guys—are watchin’. Allow us to break it down for y’all. It was the pandemic that suckered Sanon into becoming a beauty junkie. “Skincare for me is very important…I kind of realised that it really works when you…

Hello, how many Oscars have you ever been nominated for? Because Scarlett Johansson’s record is two in one year due to being twice as talented—not to mention her bevy of accolades from other awards ceremonies (think: a not-so-casual Tony award). ScarJo has cemented herself as one of Hollywood’s most sought-after actresses, so obviously, she makes a huge amount of money. But she’s not, like, regular rich. She. Is. ALL-CAPS RICH. Time to dive into Scarletts net worth and find out what she’s making, ’kay? She’s the World’s Highest-Paid Actress At least, according to Forbes, which reported that Scarlett earned $56 million…

Alia Bhatt and Karan Johar share one of the most precious relationships. She considers him to be a father figure, a best friend and a mentor all rolled up in one. And he, on the other hand, treats her like one of his children. Their bond is truly heart-warming. So, it stands to reason that when Alia told Karan about her pregnancy, his reaction was a just wave of emotions. No one does dramatic better than Karan Johar and we are here for it! In a recent interview with ETimes about Koffee with Karan’s upcoming season, Karan let us in…

Here’s the lo-down for a smooth day-to-night transition“I fell head over heels for this floral, shorts-and-blazer set from Redefine by Ridhi Doshi. The brand is all about eclectic prints that speak to my soul, and the silhouettes are chic and playful. What I love most about this co-ord set is how it adapts to the occasion—I can always dress it up or down. This is a huge advantage as I support slow fashion, and I want to get the most out of any designer piece. Not just that, I enjoy wearing pieces that can be styled in multiple ways. For…

It’s frivolous, scandalous, and perhaps odious to some. You may love it, or you may hate it—but you simply cannot ignore it. Director and producer Karan Johar’s illustrious celebrity talk show, Koffee With Karan, has rolled out another season, replete with glitz, glamour, and ample fraternity gossip that we, as outsiders, would otherwise be oblivious to. To commence the novel season, Papa KJo invited his goddaughter, newlywed Alia Bhatt, alongside her Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani costar Ranveer Singh, onto the coveted couch. While some claim that the first episode was a tad bit underwhelming—perhaps, no mention of her pregnancy?—the 29-year-old mum-to-be…

Bollywood has set our bar for romance extremely high. Wouldn’t you agree? It’s improbable that violin music started playing when you first laid eyes on your partner or it started raining moments before your first kiss. We’ve grown up believing that’s what happens. In reality though, not everyone is that lucky. However, this story is about two people who wouldn’t agree- Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone. They got their Bollywood fairy tale and it’s left us all gushing and blushing! Ranveer Singh’s eagerly anticipated episode of Man v/s Wild dropped on Netflix on 8th July. Early in the episode, Ranveer…
