If You Watch 1 Thing All Day, Let It Be the Avengers Cast on a Sightseeing Tour Bus

Next time you're in Los Angeles, you might want to consider a sightseeing tour (especially if it has James Corden's face on it), because you never know who might be joining you for the ride. For his latest skit on The Late Late Show With James Corden , James decided to create his own tour bus "James Corden Star, Star Tour, the tour that takes the stars on the tour".

If you've ever come across a certain pod-filled, rainbow-roofed lavatory on your feed and thought it could only possibly exist on the set of A Wrinkle of Time , you are mistaken. The bathroom in question actually belongs to London restaurant Sketch , a favourite hotspot for celebrities, bloggers, and selfie-aficionados alike.

Sorry, Ladies and Gents: Tom Hardy Is Not as Tall as You Probably Thought

That fantasy you have of Tom Hardy towering over you for a kiss might not be as realistic as you think. In fact, while the Venom actor opts for larger than life roles , he stands at just 5'9". Tom might be the same height as his Peaky Blinders co-star Cillian Murphy, but he is smaller than his all-knowing friend Leonardo DiCaprio , who reportedly boasts 6 ft of height - although there is talk that this might be a white lie and he actually stands at 5'10". It's a good thing Tom just signed on to play real-life gangster Al Capone , as the crime boss who inspired Scarface stood at 5'6".

Prince William Nodding Off in Church Is Something Every New Parent Will Relate To

Princess Caroline Opens Up About Childhood With Mum Grace Kelly: "We Were Closer to Our Nanny"

During their 26-year marriage, Prince Rainier III and Grace Kelly shared numerous sweet moments as a couple while also being loving parents to their three children : Princess Caroline, Prince Albert, and Princess Stéphanie. But in a new book, the eldest sibling candidly opens up about another important figure in her and her brother's life: their beloved nanny, Maureen Wood. In Albert II of Monaco, The Man and The Prince by Isabelle Rivère and Peter Mikelbank, 61-year-old Princess Caroline reveals details of their childhood, confessing that she and Albert were closer to their nanny than they were to their mother. "For my brother and I, Maureen was the key figure in our life," she explains. "When we were little, we were probably closer to our nanny than to our parents.

These Are the Royal Family Members Prince Louis's Name Honours

After much anticipation, Kensington Palace finally announced the new British royal baby's name via Twitter on Friday: His Royal Highness Prince Louis Arthur Charles of Cambridge. As we know from our baby name investigation , each and every royal name has been carefully chosen to honour other family members. Although we may have incorrectly predicated his first name as Arthur, we did get the two middle names correct, at least! And now we've got the name pronunciation clarified , let's delve deeper into why the name was chosen. The name Louis honours Prince Philip's grandfather, Prince Louis Alexander of Battenberg, and his uncle, Lord Louis Mountbatten, to whom Philip was very close. The name is also a common thread in the Cambridge family, as both Prince George and Prince William have it as one of their middle names. Arthur was the favourite with many bookmakers as it is a nod to both Prince William and Prince Charles (both of them have it as a middle name). One re...

He took to Instagram to share an old photo of him with Prince William, with the sweet caption: "Congratulations to William and Kate on bringing another beautiful boy into this world, plus congratulations to the whole family."

This Royal Rule Secures Princess Charlotte's Place in Line For the Throne, Even With a New Baby Brother

The arrival of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's third child has not only made 2-year-old Princess Charlotte a big sister, but perhaps the world's most famous middle child as well. Even though she may have to fight for a little more of her parents' attention now that her baby brother has arrived, Charlotte will probably be pleased to know that thanks to a change in a centuries-old royal rule, the one thing the new baby can't take from her is her place in line for the British throne. Under the Act of Settlement of 1701, all brothers would be allowed to jump ahead of their sisters in the line of succession, meaning that even if a girl was born first, the arrival of her younger brother would immediately move her down the list. Modern examples of the system of male primogeniture include Princess Anne, who is the second-born and only daughter of Queen Elizabeth II; at the time of her birth, Anne was third in line for the throne after her mother, then-Princess Elizabet...

Sainsbury’s, Asda Set Out to Create a ‘Dynamic New Player’ in Retail

LONDON – British supermarket giants Sainsbury’s and Walmart-owned Asda have confirmed plans to merge, creating Britain’s largest grocer with combined revenues of more than 50 billion pounds and promising “a dynamic new player” in U.K. retail. The confirmation follows a flurry of media reports over the weekend that the two retailers were poised to seal a deal in an increasingly tough market. In a joint statement issued to the London Stock Exchange Monday, the stores said the merger would result in Walmart holding 42 percent of the issued share capital of the new entity and receiving 2.98 billion pounds in cash. The deal values Asda at approximately 7.3 billion pounds, on a debt-free, cash-free and pension-free basis. Walmart will not hold more than 29.9 per cent of the total voting rights in the new business. Both the Sainsbury’s and Asda brand names will remain. The retailers said the complementary network of more than 2,800 Sainsbury’s, Asda and Argos catalogue stores wi...

EXCLUSIVE: Karl Lagerfeld, ModelCo Team Up on Makeup Line

PARIS — Karl Lagerfeld is no stranger to color cosmetics — he’s long used them to shade his dreamy illustrations. Now the designer has teamed with Australian beauty company ModelCo for his latest collaboration. The Karl Lagerfeld + ModelCo limited-edition makeup line, with more than 50 units, is set to launch globally on May 14. Lagerfeld allowed that putting makeup on sketches is “very different than working on a makeup collection as a product. The technical part I don’t know about; I only know the aesthetic part.” Asked about the target customer, he said, “This collection is done for people of any age who may like it — also young people who know more about makeup than all of us.” Pier Paolo Righi, chief executive officer of Karl Lagerfeld, lauded ModelCo as a “creative and innovative company, with a team that thinks out of the box. They are very connected with a Millennial audience and deeply grounded in fashion. At the same time, ModelCo resonated with the iconic, playful DNA at the...

The Real Real Tests Beauty

The Real Real is testing beauty. The luxury resale e-commerce site — which operates a brick-and-mortar location in Manhattan’s SoHo and a pop-up in Las Vegas — has quietly added beauty products to its assortment. Industry sources say the products have been available for sale in the SoHo store since the holiday season, and they are sold in the Las Vegas outpost as well. A spokesman for The Real Real confirmed it is testing beauty, but did not provide further comment on a larger strategy. Contrary to The Real Real’s consignment-based business model, the beauty products being sold are new, sources say. Brands being sold are of the clean beauty variety, in line with The Real Real’s sustainable luxury positioning. They include Pai Skincare, Rahua, Ellis Brooklyn, Babo Botanicals, Joanna Vargas, In Fiore, Maison Louis Marie, Kahina Giving Beauty, Olio E Osso, Julisis, Uma Oils, Grown Alchemist, Cap Beauty and more.

CEO Talks: Tailored Brands’ Doug Ewert and His Unwavering Focus

It was a David-and-Goliath-type of situation when the Men’s Wearhouse was negotiating to buy its archrival Jos. A. Bank a little more than four years ago. There was a back-and-forth bidding war between the competitors and ultimately, the larger Men’s Wearhouse walked away victorious. But be careful what you wish for. While the merger created the largest men’s specialty store chain in the U.S., the $1.8 billion acquisition added a hefty amount of debt to Men’s Wearhouse’s balance sheet and the Bank business was in worse shape than its acquirer realized. The promotional strategy it used to drive sales — buy-one-get-one, two, three or even seven, free — was unsustainable. For two years, chief executive officer Doug Ewert took heat from Wall Street as he worked tirelessly to turn the Bank business around. Today, the newly named Tailored Brands Inc. has turned the corner, quadrupling profits in 2017 and posting comparable-store sales gains at its flagship Men’s Wearhouse and the Jos. A. Ban...

Details of Groupe Galeries Lafayette’s Champs-Elysées Flagship Teased at Hyères Festival

SHOP TALK: A store design by an experimental architect — Denmark’s Bjarke Ingels — who has never before worked on a retail project; Instagram-friendly features and a team of sales assistants — “exciting personalities” embracing the “new Parisian” — trained to engage with customers on a seamless journey around the store. Even the fitting rooms will have something to say.

Don’t expect any screens, though. “We spent so ma...
