AFP via Getty ImagesWhen The Daily Beast reported on the plans to make the Republican National Committee “white again” in March, the party was quick to deny that it was deprioritizing voters of color—even though the committee was scrapping plans to open new minority outreach centers.Since then, there’s been little word about what exactly Republicans have in mind when it comes to attracting voters of color, who have traditionally supported Democrats by wide margins. That’s especially true when it comes to Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) voters, who make up a small but rapidly growing 6 percent of the electorate.But sources with knowledge of RNC efforts to win over these voters told The Daily Beast that Republicans aren’t abandoning outreach programs for AAPI voters. They’re actually doubling down—quietly.Read more at The Daily Beast.

In honor of two big romance releases this week—The Fall Guy and The Idea of You—we’re celebrating everything we love about the last 15 years of romantic comedies.Jennifer Lopez has the work ethic of 100 people, 15 horses, three donkeys, and me after two cans of sugar-free Red Bull. That’s why she needs to dance with a cane: She’s a lot of woman to support! Hopping between an action movie about an assassin stricken with maternal guilt, to an album all about your marriage (complete with accompanying short film and documentary, lest we forget), to an upcoming sci-fi thriller about a dystopian universe where AI has taken over would be a daunting task for anyone. And yet, Lopez has persisted, making it look as easy as rocking up to the bodega counter and ordering her preferred meal of ham and cheese on a roll and a bag of chips.Lopez seems consumed by the need to prove to the world that she can do anything and be anybody. It’s a commendable effort, especially when something like her childhood bodega order can be lambasted online in Reddit threads questioning the veracity of her love of orange drink. For years, J.Lo has been the butt of the internet’s joke, a favorite to pile on whenever carpal tunnel-ridden thumbs need something new to post about. Various threads on X detail all of the “stolen” songs in her discography—a common misconception about the standard music industry practice of using vocals recorded in a demo as backing vocals in a finished song. Other times, a venture at audience connection will be an outright failure, like when her attempt to start the #LoveDontCostAThingChallenge was met with crickets, along with plenty of observations over how loudly those crickets were chirping.Read more at The Daily Beast.

La franquicia más poderosa del cine de acción tendrá una nueva atracción en un popular parque temático

Los organizadores se están preparando para el evento de dos días, que este año se llevará a cabo los días 20 y 21 de julio

Photo Illustration by Luis G. Rendon/The Daily Beast/Getty ImagesLaw Roach is no stranger to controversial looks. Whether the renowned celebrity stylist and image architect is showing up bulge-first to the 2023 CFDA awards or dressing his longtime client Zendaya in ostentatious tennis couture for her Challengers press tour, Roach is unafraid of risk on the red carpet. That confident conviction extends to his larger body of work, too. Last year, Roach shocked the fashion and entertainment industries when he announced he would retire from styling to pursue his own ventures. And though he still works closely with Zendaya (and will occasionally pop up to style a friend and client like Celine Dion for her surprise appearance at this year’s Grammys), navigating uncharted waters has been tricky.“I’m figuring it out!” Roach tells me over Zoom, laughing to himself. “As far as my style and the way I want the world to see me, it’s changing a little bit. I think that’s okay.” Roach is promoting his latest gig outside of the world of styling, a new E! Network reality show called OMG Fashun, which he’s hosting alongside megawatt multihyphenate, Julia Fox. While this is far from Roach’s first foray into reality television, it’s certainly his most exciting yet. The series is a design competition that pushes for sustainability in the fashion industry through outlandish, upcycled looks that viewers could easily replicate and remix at home. (Think Project Runway for the Brooklyn club kid scene.) It’s the perfect addition to Roach’s portfolio, which already boasts a slew of outrageous and exciting styling decisions and branding tactics that have made him as famous as his A-List clients.Despite all of that fame and recognition, Roach is amiably humble. His small voice livens up and practically floats through the Zoom window when we discuss OMG Fashun and Fox, whom he credits with creating a work environment where he felt he could be authentically himself. If Roach has had trouble nailing down exactly who he is and where he wants to be, it would be hard to know just from listening to him speak. He talks about his career and next moves with the brazen self-assurance of someone unafraid of making mistakes, an attitude he partially attributes to his success. “If there is any critique [online] that I somewhat agreed with, I take that, and use it for the next go-around,” Roach says.Read more at The Daily Beast.

The multi-billionaire went on a walk-and-talk with Qiang, and had a sit-down photo op with him reminiscent of the kind of side-by-side chats the President of the United States has with his counterparts.While the surprise visit could see Tesla garner more praise and approvals in China, home of the world’s largest auto market, not everyone was thrilled with the trip. Musk was originally scheduled to visit India and announce a $3 billion investment in a car plant, but ended up canceling the trip to make the China meeting happen.Read more at The Daily Beast.

Apple TV+(Warning: Spoilers ahead!)Colin Farrell is an alien. Okay, the actual Colin Farrell is not an alien (as far as I know), but he plays one in the Apple TV+’s neo-noir Sugar. Considering the streamer’s penchant for space-related science-fiction stories, this shouldn’t come as a surprise. However, the blue-face bombshell at the end of the sixth episode is a big swing that unsettles everything that comes before it.John Sugar (Farrell) is a private investigator looking into the mysterious disappearance of Olivia Siegel (Sydney Chandler), the granddaughter of legendary Hollywood producer Jonathan Siegel (James Cromwell). The whole Siegel family has ties to the movie biz: Olivia’s half-brother David (Nate Corddry) was a kid star now embroiled in a scandal, and Olivia’s actress mother died in a car accident years ago. A wealthy family enveloped by tragedy is a familiar set-up. A cinephile PI concealing his alien identity is more unusual—to put it mildly.Read more at The Daily Beast.
