Exercise May Reduce Anxiety Symptoms, Boost Emotional Resilience

Physical activity has long been associated with managing various mental health conditions, including anxiety disorders.

Lesser known is whether individuals with higher levels of physical fitness experience fewer anxiety symptoms and stressful emotions.

A recent study published in Acta Psychologica investigated whether higher cardiorespiratory fitness may be associated with lower levels of anxiety and anger. The researchers examined whether people with different fitness levels exhibit distinct emotional responses to unpleasant visual stimuli.

“These findings make a lot of sense to me. I consistently recommend regular exercise to my patients and believe that regular physical activity is an important piece of strong emotional health,” Nissa Keyashian , MD, board certified psychiatrist and author of “ Practicing Stillness ,” who was not involved in the study, told Healthline.

The study involved 40 healthy individuals between the ages of 18 and 40. The participants were divided into two groups: above-average (AA) and below-average (BA) fitness levels.

Both groups felt more tense after looking at the upsetting images. However, the AA group started with overall lower levels of anger and anxiety in their daily lives, and stayed calmer. The BA group showed a 775% greater risk of seeing their anxiety levels increase from moderate to high.

Anupam Mittal Demands Payment From Shark Tank India 5 Pitcher To Work Together: ‘Aapko Jhelne Ke...

Shark Tank India is currently in the midst of its fifth season and in the latest episode, the judges met with a plant-based meat company based out of Faridabad. Simarjeet Singh and Rupinder Singh presented their products from Mister Veg which are completely made of soya, which they presented as vegetarian versions of different non-veg delicacies. They sought Rs 2 crore in exchange for 2.5 percent of their company, thus valuing it at Rs 80 crore.

When they started speaking about their business, the pitchers revealed that Jubilant FoodWorks had 38 percent in their business, which they bought in 2021 at Rs 4.25 crore. Jubilant FoodWorks is the company behind Domino's Pizza in India. Aman was quick to get out of the negotiations as he insisted that this industry was on a decline. Ritesh, Namita and Amit said the same thing and got out. Anupam said that they already had a strategic investor in the business and did not understand what role the pitchers wanted the sharks to play in their business. As he also got out, Simrajeet tried to convince him again. As they spoke over each other, Anupam refused to listen to him.

To this, Anupam said that he would be willing to take part in the business, but only on one condition ⁘ if he gets paid by the pitchers. “I am out but if you want me to join your business, I can do it but you will have to pay me for that,” he said and added with a laugh, “Aapko jhelne ke liye. Main paise ke bina yeh kaam nahi karunga. (To work with you. I won't do that unless you pay me.) I love you but I have to leave you.”

India's World Cup journey has been challenging with their batting struggling to find form. Despite this, their depth and deceptive strategies have kept them undefeated. Facing South Africa, known for their strong bowling attack, will be a true test. The pressure to perform at home and the burden of expectation make it even more difficult for India to defend their title.

Dancing With The Stars To Launch Spinoff To Find Show's Next Pro Dancer

Dancing With the Stars is ready to find its next professional dancer with a little help from reality TV.

Us Weekly has learned a new spinoff show is in the works ⁘ tentatively titled Dancing With the Stars: The Next Pro ⁘ and will feature up-and-coming professional dancers competing for a spot on season 35 of ABC⁘s hit reality show.

Contestants will live in a house together and compete in a grueling audition process. In the season finale, a winner will be crowned and earn the dream gig of becoming a pro dancer on Dancing With the Stars .

According to Variety , the show is likely to air this summer on ABC and Hulu, and producers are hard at work securing talent for the project.

Wildlife conservationist Robert Irwin , who won Season 34 of Dancing With the Stars in November 2025, is in talks to host.

Meanwhile, Dancing With the Stars pro Mark Ballas ⁘ who was most recently paired up with Secret Lives of Mormon Wives cast member Whitney Leavitt ⁘ and his mother, Shirley Ballas , could serve as judges.

What Happened To Felt After Its Appearance On Shark Tank Season 7? Details Explored

Tomer Alpert pitched his business, Felt, on Shark Tank season 7. Felt is an app that lets users send personalised handwritten cards directly from their smartphones. He was seeking $200,000 for 6% equity on Shark Tank.

The app was available only on Apple devices at the time and was downloaded 60,000 times, earning a 4.5-star rating on the Apple App Store. Shark Kevin O'Leary offered $225,000 for a 10% equity stake. Tomer accepted the deal, but it did not close post-show.

According to  The Shark Tank Blog , Felt is still in business and available on the iTunes Store and online. The social media accounts on Facebook and Twitter are active while pointing “toward a healthy, growing company.” Slash Gear reports that the app had over 69,000 reviews and a 4.7 rating in 2025. 

According to the official website of Felt, they are also offering seasonal gifts along with the cards. These gifts include flowers,  framed photo prints, stickers, bath products and coffee. 

He has also co-founded other businesses in the past, including SiSTeR Technologies, which was aimed at "automatically creating videos from technical specs, pictures and full-motion videos for used and new vehicles."

According to The Shark Tank Blog , Alpert created the app back in 2013 to “bring more personalisation to our increasingly digital and detached lives. As it says on their website, “it's snail mail, reimagined for the modern world.”

The message is printed with premium paper and then mailed to the recipient. This not only saves a lot of time but also ensures that last-minute cards are made on time without you ever needing to leave home.

Shark Robert Herjavec expressed his scepticism about the pitch, as he believed the technology or idea was proprietary. Kevin O'Leary saw potential in the app as he already has a wedding business in his portfolio, HoneyFund. Kevin showed interest and believed that it could be a money maker if the maker partners with his ability to reduce customer acquisition cost to nearly zero.

Elizabeth Hurley Posts Red Bikini Photo On Instagram, Says 'Missing Paradise'

In a recent Instagram post, the 60-year-old actress posted a photo of herself in a red Elizabeth Hurley Beach bikini, writing she is "missing paradise" in her caption.

The photo shows the "Austin Powers" star standing on a wooden deck with crystal blue water behind her and a camera hanging off her shoulder as she smiles at the camera in a red bikini with gold chain accents.

"Honestly, you are drinking from the fountain of youth 🫶 please spare me a glass ❤️," one fan wrote, while another added, "Age is just a number."

The actress is no stranger to posting bikini photos on social media, having recently shared photos of herself lounging in a leopard-print bikini while on vacation in the Maldives. The post also featured photos of her enjoying a relaxing bubble bath, including a topless photo of her taken from the back as she rinses out her hair.

Earlier in the year, she also posted photos from her 007 themed New Year's Eve party, which she attended in a white bikini, captioning the post, "Happy New Year 💋 Starting 2026 with a bang 💃🏻 #007Party."

Featured in some of the photos from her New Year's Eve post was her boyfriend, Billy Ray Cyrus . The two launched their relationship on Easter Sunday in 2025.

During an interview with The Sunday Times in October 2025, Hurley called Cyrus "fabulous" and shared that they are "very happy" in their relationship, and that he spent the summer with her in her hometown of Herefordshire, England.

"He loves it. Obviously, he loves England. The weather is nicer here in the summer than it is in Tennessee," she said. "He lives 40 minutes outside of Nashville. It's so beautiful. Funnily enough, it actually looks a lot like England. Probably the equivalent of Surrey."

How Love Island USA 'S Nic ⁘ Olandria Exited The Villa A Success Story

The Love Island USA season seven castmates' relationship has been going strong since they left the villa last summer, but it took a while for their bombshell romance to blossom—30 episodes, to be exact.

Despite their slow burn, signs of romance were certainly there when they first locked eyes—and lips—in Fiji. After all, the OG season seven islanders shared a passionate kiss before Olandria ultimately decided to pair up with Taylor Williams .

“Nic and I have always had a thing for each other since day one. I kissed him on day one,” Olandria, 27, recalled in an interview with Variety published in July. “Just because I didn't choose to go with him does not mean that spark wasn't there. It took us some time to get to this point. But that's what makes this connection so special. We've been building up to this point.”

Even after they coupled up with other islanders, Nic, who initially partnered with Bell-A Walker , secretly went in for another smooch during their first challenge. Since Olandria was blindfolded during the chemistry-packed kiss, she had no idea Nic planted the peck until the end of their time in the villa. And looking back, he believes if he revealed his identity sooner, “everything would have been different.”

“I don't know exactly what it would be,” the 24-year-old told TODAY.com in an interview published in July, “but every decision we've made has led us to here, and I wouldn't change anything about that.”

And Casa Amor put that chemistry on display. With the guys at the villa and the girls at Casa, both Nic and Olandria struggled to find new connections, resulting in Nic rescuing Olandria from Casa for a romantic date where they were presented with an ultimatum: couple up or go home single.

'American Idol' 2026: Hannah Harper Goes Viral With 'String Cheese' – Deseret...

Hannah Harper had Carrie Underwood in tears as she sang about the chaos of being a mom of three young boys during her “American Idol” audition.

“I thought finding peace in the quiet's what I wanted / but I'd do anything to go back to being needed,” the 25-year-old artist from Missouri sings in her original song, “String Cheese,” which the “Idol” judges compared to Dolly Parton's style of storytelling.

A new Instagram trend also has moms posting the song and sharing their own motherhood stories — including country star Lauren Alaina, who is eight months postpartum.

Harper told herself she wasn't going to cry during her “American Idol” audition. But the tears came pretty quickly as she started opening up to the judges about her song.

“And I finally opened his cheese, and when I did, I realized that God had put me in that place, and that where I was in my house was the biggest ministry that I could ever have, in being a mom,” she continued. “So, I gathered myself, and I got up off the couch, and I quit throwing a pity party, and I realized that that was exactly what I wanted.”

ANTM Doc Addresses Shandi Cheating Sex Scene Over 20 Years Later

America's Next Top Model certainly had its fair share of scandals; however, nothing was perhaps as controversial as the Shandi ⁘cheating⁘ scandal in season 2.

During the later episodes of season 2, which took place in Milan, Italy, contestant Shandi Sullivan was filmed getting ⁘black out drunk⁘ with a group of Italian men, before she was shown in bed having sex with one of them. Producers chose to film and show not only Sullivan in bed with the man, but also the highly emotional fallout from the incident, including a heartbreaking phone call to her boyfriend back home. The incident has garnered much criticism from viewers over the years, accusing the show of creating an unsafe environment and allowing the incident to happen, by filming and showing it all.

In the new Netflix documentary, Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model , out on February 16, judges and members of the show's production team addressed the incident more than 20 years later. Sullivan also gave an account of story.

⁘We were just talking, drinking,⁘ Sullivan said in the first episode of the documentary, recalling how the night began. ⁘I don't think I'd eaten anything at all or had any sleep. I remember getting in the hot tub. I remember April and Mercedes getting in the hot tub. And then I just remember the guy looking at me and I looked at him, and I was pretty drunk at that point. Everything kind of after that is just a blur. All I remember is just like, just like remember him on top of me. I was blacked out. No one did anything to stop it. And it all got filmed, all of it. Every moment of it.⁘

In the second episode of the documentary, host Tyra Banks finally addresses the controversy. "I do remember her story," she said. "It's a little difficult for me to talk about production because that's not my territory.

‘The Bachelorette' Season 22 Breaks Major Tradition – What's Changing

“The Bachelorette” Season 22 is striding into view, and it marks a departure for the long-running reality TV dating show.

That's because its latest bachelorette is the first not to have appeared on a previous season of “The Bachelor.” In other words, get ready to meet Taylor.

31-year-old Taylor Frankie Paul, a single mom and reality TV star, was announced as the next Bachelorette in September 2024 on Alex Cooper's “Call Her Daddy” podcast.

"It has not hit me right now in this moment," she said. "I'm just thinking about it, and it's not real. And it's not going to be until I think the limo is pulling up, you know? And meeting the people."

That's not the show's only break with tradition. In another surprising move, “The Bachelorette” isn't airing in July as it has for the past three seasons. While it typically runs in the spring and the winter, ABC brought its hit show forward several months.

Kim Kardashian And Lewis Hamilton Spotted At Super Bowl Together

Rumors of a budding romance between Kim Kardashian and F1 star Lewis Hamilton just got kicked into overdrive.

The reality star and British racing driver, who have been linked in recent weeks, were spotted at Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on Sunday, Feb. 8, as the Seattle Seahawks dominated the New England Patriots and Bad Bunny took the stage with a vibrant and star-studded set .

But in the stadium suites, Kardashian, 45, sat next to the Formula One champion and heartthrob, both flashing smiles and deep in conversation as the game went on, but otherwise seemed to show little affection publicly. Hamilton, 41, and the Skims founder were also seen walking together in a video shared by Entertainment Tonight , and dozens of photos of the pair began circulating overnight on social media.

Hamilton, a seven-time Formula One World Drivers' Championship titleholder and driver for Ferrari, was reportedly in an on-and-off-again relationship with Pussycat Dolls star Nicole Scherzinger from 2007 to 2015, but has otherwise not been heavily linked with anyone else publicly. Kardashian's eclectic dating history includes Pete Davidson , Ray J , Reggie Bush, Odell Beckham Jr. and ex-husbands Kris Humphries and Ye , the rapper formerly known as Kanye West .

Hamilton and the Kardashian family have crossed paths before, with the racing star and television personality said to have developed a friendship while both were in previous relationships.

Inside the Levi's Stadium suites, other stars were seen with the pair watching the big game, including Hailey and Justin Bieber , Kardashian's sister Kendall Jenner and Tyler, the Creator.

Love Is Blind is a social experiment where contestants date without meeting face to face (Image: Netflix)

Landing on February 11, fresh-faced singles will embark on the dating experiment for Season 10. However, episodes won't arrive all at once - they'll be released in weekly batches instead.

The brand new series will be available exclusively on Netflix. All previous episodes, along with spin-off seasons including Love Is Blind UK, can also be streamed in their entirety on the platform.

This lets members watch live and on-demand TV content without a satellite dish or aerial and includes hit shows like Stranger Things and The Last of Us.

Love Is Blind devotees will recall the dramatic series 9, which broke new ground with multiple ghostings and became the first ever finale where nobody walked down the aisle saying 'I do'.

Following a tumultuous run, five couples reached the final stretch: Ali and Anton, Kalybriah and Edmond, Megan and Jordan, Madison and Joe, plus Annie and Nick.

Yet fresh bombshells dropped and only two pairs made it as far as the altar - though neither ultimately tied the knot. The fallout created an explosive reunion special - all available to stream now on Netflix.

Tyra Banks Blasted As 'Narcissist' And 'Slimy Little Snake' Ahead Of...

Former " America's Next Top Model " contestant Lisa D'Amato isn't holding back when it comes to Tyra Banks , branding the iconic supermodel a "narcissist" and firing off warnings about the upcoming Netflix docuseries exploring the show's place in pop culture history.

Banks has been under fire since audiences began rewatching old seasons of "America's Next Top Model" during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many social media users called Banks and the producers out for often featuring problematic challenges and for harshly criticizing the contestants' bodies and personal features.

In the new Netflix docuseries "Reality Check," Tyra Banks admitted she went "too far" but seemed to place some of the blame for the show's outrageous antics on its fans, which led to even more pushback across platforms.

Speaking with TMZ , "America's Next Top Model" winner Lisa D'Amato warned potential viewers of "Reality Check" that Banks is a producer on the upcoming series and will try to "soften the truth" of what really went on behind the scenes.

While Banks is not listed as a producer, D'Amato said, "She's a producer," before branding her a "narcissist" who won't take real accountability for the harm she's allegedly caused people because she doesn't know how.

"If she was really upset about it, then she wouldn't still be making millions of dollars because this same franchise is still be licensed in other countries around the globe," D'Amato said.

And her bold comments didn't stop there. She went further, blasting Banks as a "slimy little snake."

Elsewhere during her conversation with TMZ, D'Amato claimed the only reason Banks inked a deal with Netflix was that the former Victoria's Secret model allegedly caught wind that she and other "ANTM" contestants had signed on to be part of a tell-all on the E! Network in March 2026.

Boulder Startup Wildcoat On Revenue Impacts Following Shark Tank Appearance

Carlo DiMeo was three months into ordering samples of animal-themed ski coats when President Donald Trump's “Liberation Day” tariffs were announced last April.

The period was a crucial one for Wildcoat, the Boulder-based startup he founded in 2020, because the business was trying to dial in designs for the season. Wildcat manufactures its lion, tiger and bear-looking outerwear at a factory in China.

Things only got back up to speed once the tariffs dropped to 30%, which led DiMeo to raise Wildcoat's prices to $525 apiece from $460. The pause took six to eight weeks and delayed bulk shipments to the U.S. once Wildcoat finalized the design, he said.

“You're not just losing margins, we're losing our profits from last year toward tariffs,” he said. “It puts everything in a pinch.”

Wildcoat, which appeared on ABC TV's “Shark Tank” a year ago, saw a banner 2025. Revenue was up from the $700,000 the business posted in 2024, and DiMeo said he expects 40% annual revenue growth.

Wildcoat added eagle and lion designs to its stable of bears, wolves, buffalo and tigers this season. DiMeo also said Wildcoat came out with kids' sizes for $325 each.

“We were close to it, a couple hundred thousand off,” he said of last year's $2 million projected revenue. “Before ‘Shark Tank' we were just hoping to hit a million, but being on the show certainly helped.”

On top of the tariff challenges, paltry snowfall in the West has led to less exposure for Wildcoat's gear. DiMeo said the business relies a lot on customers wearing the costumes on the slopes to entice sales.

Kim Kardashian Goes Topless In Nothing But A Tiny Workout Towel And NikeSkims Leggings

Kim Kardashian is celebrating the resounding success of her latest Skims partnership with a brand new (and, for the most, topless) photoshoot. The billionaire founder graced the cover of Complex wearing charcoal gray leggings designed in collaboration with Nike, a tiny gray workout towel over her shoulders, and matching fingerless gloves.

Photographed by Jeremy Soma and styled by David Friend, the rest of the Complex photoshoot likewise highlighted NikeSkims . In several images, for example, the All's Fair actress wears a pale pink set with a Skims version of their classic split-toe shoe, the Nike Air Rift.

In their cover story, Complex crowned Kardashian ⁘the Michael Jordan of influencing⁘ in a clever nod to the NBA legend's history with Nike.

⁘I'm humbled by the comparison,⁘ the mom-of-four said. ⁘Nike hasn't created a new business venture like our partnership since Jordan, essentially launching an entirely new company. It's an honor, and I don't take their choice to partner with me lightly.⁘

⁘We'll always be family,⁘ Kardashian told Complex . ⁘We both know that. We will be okay, and there's so much love for our family. We want what's best for our kids.⁘

American Idol' On? See The Season 24 Episode Schedule - Nj.Com

The reality competition series is currently in the auditions phase, with judges Lionel Richie, Carrie Underwood and Luke Bryan listening to singers from all over the country. Those lucky enough to get a golden ticket from the judges will advance to Hollywood week.

New episodes of “American Idol” air on ABC every Monday at 8 p.m. ET. The series has only released the episode schedule up to the ninth episode, which will feature the top 20 contestants. Live shows will likely begin in late March or early April.

The schedule includes the Ohana Round, a new feature of the competition that takes place in Hawai‘i. Described as “the ultimate focus group,” the Ohana Round will give the top 30 contestants “emotional support and professional insight” as they perform for “industry tastemakers” as well as their families and friends.

‘You Wanna Be On Top?' Lifting The Veil On ‘America's Next Top Model'

There were outlandish challenges that required models to dodge swinging pendulums on a catwalk or pose inside a giant Greek salad. Other scenes, now infamous, had models appear in blackface and endure extreme temperatures or dangerous conditions that even caused them to faint. They were also subjected to “Ty-rades.”

For 15 years, “America's Next Top Model” pushed contestants to the edge of what it took to win a reality television show. The audience, primarily young women, gobbled it up without hesitation, learning how to “smize” from the host and model Tyra Banks, but “make it fashion.”

In the years since it went off the air in 2018, the show has become equal parts meme candy and ripe for criticism as fans have re-examined the scenes on social media with a fresh perspective: Did the show reflect the harsh realities of the modeling industry, or make the experience worse? “ Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model ,” a new documentary from Netflix, may finally lift the curtain on the show's legacy.

Banks has largely avoided addressing pointed criticism of the show, but she told the “Today” show in 2020 that she had apologized for some of her decisions . In the trailer for the documentary, she admits that the show was “very, very intense,” adding: “But you guys were demanding it. And so we kept pushing more, and more, and more.”

We Asked A Doctor Which Exercise Is Most Effective For Strengthening Your Heart

Most people know the importance of regular physical activity for heart health. But with trendy workouts ranging from HYROX to pilates, it can be hard to know which to choose.

So, we asked our chief medical officer, Sohaib Imtiaz, MD, what type of exercise is best for heart health.

Q: We know that exercise is great for your health long-term, but for people who want to get the most out of their workouts, what kind of exercise would you recommend to improve heart health?

HIIT is a form of physical activity that alternates between short bursts of high-intensity exercise and brief periods of rest.

Some HIIT protocols are strictly cardio-based. For example, you might sprint on a treadmill for 30 seconds, and then walk for one minute, and repeat.

Kevin O'Leary Recalls Brutal Paddling Scene With Timothee Chalamet

Kevin O'Leary reflected on one of the most memorable — and definitely the most brutal — scene in the Oscar-nominated "Marty Supreme" in which his character paddles Timothée Chalamet to humiliate him.

The "Shark Tank" star told Fox News Digital that they started shooting the scene around 3:45 in the morning, and a stunt performer was going to take the beating, not the A-list Chalamet.

"We had a stunt a--," O'Leary explained. "And the idea was the stunt a-- would come in. We had a fake paddle with a silicon hinge on it, and that broke on the first hit. It just didn't work. It didn't even look real."

Then he said Chalamet surprised everyone by proclaiming: "‘Wait a second, it's gonna be my a--. I'm not gonna let someone else immortalize their a-- as my a--, I'll do my a--!' And I said, ‘Look, man, we're gonna go to a real paddle here. I'll try and hold back.'"

But when he did some slower hits, the director, Josh Safdie, said it wasn't working and didn't look real.

"‘This is a crucial scene in the discipline, and we need the real thing,'" Safdie explained, according to O'Leary. "'So, Timmy, either let the, you know, stunt a-- sit in, or you're gonna get your a-- whacked.'"

The first-time feature film actor said he "laid into him, and he got his a-- whacks one cheek at a time, so the other could cool down. You know, but I imprinted the brand of that paddle in his left cheek."

Ali Larter's Career Journey From 'Varsity Blues' To 'Landman' Success...

Larter shared all the work comes before getting in front of the camera, saying ⁘preparation is relaxation.⁘

"Those are the hardest for me," she continued. "I don't enjoy them. It's just part of the story that I'm telling, and I'm an actress, so I get on board. But those are definitely my least favorite."

Here is a look back at her career, starting from her modeling days in the 1990s to her transition into acting.

The actress got her start in the industry as a model when she was 13 years old. Her modeling career took her around the world before she decided to step away from the fashion industry and pursue acting.

Following a few small roles, including appearances on "Suddenly Susan" and "Dawson's Creek," Larter had her big break when she starred as Darcy in the 1999 movie, "Varsity Blues."

"'Varsity Blues' is what began it all, and it was a really feel good movie... I think it was a simpler time in a way and I think that, again, it was a feel good movie, but I love that even for Darcy, I was able to show her vulnerability," Larter told People about the film in November 2025. "This was a girl who was trying to find her way out, and then you see her deeply embarrassed and crying over the choices that she's made for herself as a young girl."

Love Island's Lucinda Strafford Hit With Warning Over Villa Behaviour - OK! Magazine

While Belle kept her possibly suitor, USA bombshell Carrington Rodriguez, at arm's length to protect Sean's feelings, Sean's head was turned by Lucinda. Last night (February 1) Belle was left furious after returning to the main villa to discover Sean and Lucinda's fling.

After confronting Sean, the ITV star broke down into tears as she continued: ⁘I f**** leave for three days. Three f***** days. I uphold my f***** dignity and my respect for him regardless of how my connection is over there. I've done nothing but be respectable.⁘

It sparked a major falling out in the villa, with Belle vowing to avoid Lucinda going forward. However, ahead of the explosive moment, Lucinda was given a warning about her behaviour from co-star Samie, who also arrived on the series as a bombshell.

Samie pulled Lucinda aside after spotting her chatting with Sean, asking what was said between the pair. Lucinda revealed: ⁘He could have been clearer with his feelings when he talked to me, but he does like me.⁘

Samie replied: ⁘This is mad. Him and Belle were in such a good place before they left. I'm so shocked and Belle is a good mate of mine. I obviously don't know what's going on back there, but this is really gonna upset her.

“You have to do what you want to do, but this is so hard for me to even see happen. Sean wasn't even on the radar so I'm thrown by it.⁘ She then warned Lucinda: ⁘Tread with caution. Just think about it a little bit.”

'The Amazing Race' Meets UFC? Reality Show Host Down For Crossover

The UFC's new relationship with Paramount could open all sorts of crossover opportunities, including on one of the most successful reality shows of all time.

⁘The Amazing Race⁘ is one of the shows under the Paramount umbrella, with Season 39 having just been renewed for 2026. There's likely more to come after that, and Phil Keoghan, who is a producer and host for the U.S. version of the series, is open to seeing UFC athletes test themselves.

⁘Absolutely I could see a UFC team being on 'The Amazing Race,'⁘ Keoghan told MMA Junkie. ⁘I mean, athletes, people who compete, they train hard, they're incredibly focused. These athletes are so highly tuned and you think of the discomfort they have to put up with as a fighter, it's one thing to be a soccer player and you're fit and you get discomfort because you're tired and you're running around a field. But imagine being pummelled and have to get up, and you're still competing?

⁘On 'The Amazing Race,' we shoot 12 shows in 21 days. It's a lot of discomfort and a lot of times you're sleeping out on the street waiting for something to open before you can go in. It's not a luxury gig, so I think UFC fighters would be able to easily put up with the discomfort. A lot of them have travelled, a lot of them are hyper-competitive of course.⁘

During the same red carpet session where Keoghan invited UFC athletes to test their physical and mental capabilities on ⁘The Amazing Race,⁘ notables such as UFC strawweight champion Mackenzie Dern, lightweight Michael Chandler and more said they would be all for it.

Kim Kardashian Shares She Purchased Britney Spears' Bob Mackie Crystal Bra At Auction

The SKIMS co-founder, 45, sat down with sister Khloé Kardashian for the second part of their conversation on the Khloé in Wonderland podcast , where the sisters talked about unknowingly bidding against each other in an auction for a bible that belonged to their late father, Robert Kardashian, that he had given to OJ Simpson.

Khloé asked Kim when she developed an ⁘obsession with auctions,⁘ which prompted the mom of four to explain, ⁘I just I love an auction. I love the energy. I love... I think it's like a piece of history.⁘

"I have an entire Bob Mackie collection of Cher 's clothes from The Sonny and Cher Show . The ones where she did this video on flipping her hair... I won every single piece at the last big auction."

"You know what I have? I have the Britney Spears Bob Mackie crystal bikini top, with the Dolce and Gabbana jeans! She wore the jeans with the crystal over... I forgot I have that."

The four-piece set was worn by Spears, 44, for her 2001 Dream Within a Dream Tour. That November, one night of the tour was broadcast as an HBO concert special. The bra, undergarments and armbands are all French wirework, backed with a blush fabric, to create a nude illusion.

Spears performed in the bra and armbands while singing her first-ever hit, "Baby One More Time..." for the special. She wore the full four-piece set with jeans in promotional photos, as well. The set sold for an astonishing $78,000 at Bold Luxury: The Limelight Edit by Julien's Auctions in late March 2025, while the jeans — a reproduction of the pair Spears wore — went for $2,925.

⁘I did tell TJ when I bought his uncle Michael's jacket and I gave it to North,⁘ Kim noted, saying he was ultimately ⁘happy⁘ that she had it rather than a stranger.

2 Arizonans Will Compete On 'American Idol' 2026. How To Watch Live

At least two Arizona singers will be in the mix on Season 24 of “American Idol,” which started earlier than usual this year on Monday, Jan. 26.

It's still too soon to say how long those two will last, of course. And there's a chance there may be other Arizona singers added when the show's producers finalize the list of which auditions will be shown.

For now, though, we can safely say that Arizona “Idol” hopefuls Kitti Taye and Lanii will be seen auditioning for judges Lionel Richie , Carrie Underwood and Luke Bryan .

Kitti Taye is a 22-year-old aerospace analyst from Laveen. She auditioned with her college a capella group and takes a lot of inspiration from Carrie Underwood, who won Season 4 and went on to enjoy one of the most successful post-“Idol” careers of any former winner before returning as a judge on Season 23.

You can check out Kitti Taye on TikTok , where you'll find an emotional cover of "Cardigan" by Taylor Swift and a soulful rendition of "Wondering Why" by The Red Clay Strays.

Lanii is a 19-year-old high school student from Phoenix. Traveling to Nashville for the audition was her first time on plane. Her dad is her inspiration for auditioning.
