Rocco Richie is 20 years old. Excuse me?! How is this allowed? I remember his christening, which happened the same week as his mom and dad’s wedding. Sting sang Ave Maria. 

We are still waiting for the Vogue September issue reveal but there’s been a steady roll-out from other magazines. This is from SELF and, um, it’s a little low energy. The white button down isn’t doing much here. I do wonder how much Miranda Kerr pays her publicist because that person works very hard.

Jim Parsons was interviewed for David Tennent’s podcast and spoke up the series of events which led him to leaving Big Bang Theory, despite being paid in gold bars. You know what we don’t talk about enough when it comes to Jim Parsons? He’s 47 and looks 23. He looks so young to me, like a baby, and he’s nearly 50. He should be included in the Rob Lowe/Gabrielle Union/Paul Rudd Celebrities Who Don’t Age Club.

Spend any amount of time on Instagram and you will notice aesthetic patterns for everything from vacation photos to engagement reveals to voting drives. A new story in Vox by Terry Nguyễn, “How social justice slideshows took over Instagram” explores how messages are being packaged for the platform, both to take advantage of and beat Instagram algorithms.

Kelly Clarkson took over Simon Cowell’s spot on America’s Got Talent (he fell off his bike and had surgery). This is the third NBC show for Kelly (her talk show and The Voice are the other two) so one thing we know, for sure, is that she’s the go-to person, the one they can call to fill in last minute on live TV. It’s such an underrated skill because she makes it look so easy.
